Chapter 724: 10,000 more than you
Even Jameson on the stage showed a shocked expression, and after a while, Jameson said excitedly:
"Master Bai Yan bid five million six hundred thousand, and the offer has increased by a whole million! It seems that Master Bai Yan is also a lover of the piano! ā
Jameson's words brought the audience back to their senses and began to whisper.
Kohler sat there expressionless, while Xing Lina turned pale.
That old man is with Fang Yang, he must have made a bid for Fang Yang! Xing Lina thought hatefully.
At this time, the discussion of several people next to him reached the ears of Kohler and Xing Lina.
"Master Bai Yan is really generous! Five million six hundred thousand, and they didn't even blink an eye......"
"You don't know yet, do you? The young man next to Master Bai Yan who had just come on stage to see the piano was his newly closed disciple, and the master was most likely quoted for his disciples! ā
"Really? This young man is amazing......"
"To be appreciated by Master Baiyan is definitely not ordinary!"
"Do you think Mr. Guo and Dean Chen will continue to quote?"
"Eighty percent won't...... Master Bai Yan has already expressed his attitude, since he has taken a fancy to this piano, everyone has to give some face! ā
"That's right! The master is highly respected! ā
Khloe's heart moved, and he turned his head sideways and asked politely:
"Excuse me, who is the old man who quoted just now?"
The middle-aged man who had just told everyone that Fang Yang was a closed disciple of Master Baiyan turned his face to look at Kohler, and when he saw that he was a foreigner, he immediately showed a look of sudden realization, smiled and said:
"Young man, that is Taishan Beidou in our Chinese calligraphy and painting circles and collection circles, the famous Baiyan master. It is almost a household name in China......"
"That'...... The young man next to him? Khloe then asked.
"That young man's name is Fang Yang, and he is a closed disciple that the master accepted a few months ago." The middle-aged man said, "Just outside the venue, I heard with my own ears the ...... introduced by Master Bai Yan to his friend."
"Oh...... Thank you! Kohler said lightly.
His mind also turned away, it seems that the biggest reason why Fang Yang can get a VIP seat is that his teacher is a famous calligrapher and painter!
Kohler, who thought he had found the reason, breathed a sigh of relief slightly, he was also a little apprehensive when he saw Fang Yang sitting in the reserved seat in the third row at first glance, thinking that Fang Yang's family background was very good.
And if it was just because of Master Baiyan, Kohler would naturally not care. No matter how famous Master Bai Yan is in the Chinese painting and calligraphy circles, it is impossible to have any impact on his own interests.
An artist only! Kohler thought with a slight contempt in his heart.
"My dear, Fang Yang is too aggressive! You must not make him complacent! Seeing that Kohler still didn't mean to make an offer, Xing Lina was also very anxious in her heart, and leaned up and said delicately.
Kohler patted Xing Lina's hand comfortingly and nodded slightly.
The development of things was similar to what a few people around Kohler had guessed just now, and after Master Bai Yan finished quoting the price, Mr. Guo and Dean Chen gave up continuing to offer almost without hesitation.
Dean Chen also stood up and said with a smile:
"Master Bai Yan, if I had known that you were always interested in this instrument, I wouldn't have had to fight so hard with Lao Guo......"
Mr. Guo also nodded approvingly.
Master Bai Yan stood up and turned around, arched his hand towards the two of them, and thanked them with a smile.
In fact, the price of 4.6 million yuan just now is close to the psychological bottom line of Mr. Guo and Dean Chen, so they are quite cautious about raising the price, and they will only add tens of thousands of yuan after thinking about it for a long time.
Now that Master Bai Yan has added one million at once, it naturally far exceeds the psychological price of the two, coupled with the master's high morality, at this time, he simply gave up a little, and he could still have a good relationship with Master Bai Yan, and the two naturally made the right choice in unison.
Jameson, the auctioneer on the stage, saw that the two who had won the most fierce battle had given up on their own initiative, and he also thought that the auction price of this guqin had basically reached the top, but he still faithfully performed his duties as an auctioneer, and asked with a smile:
"Master Bai Yan bid 5.6 million Huaxia coins, do you have any friends who have increased the price? This guqin is a rare treasure! ā
After waiting for a few seconds and seeing that no one answered, Jameson sighed secretly in his heart and said:
"Five million six hundred thousand for the first time!"
ā¦ā¦
"Five million six hundred thousand for the second time! If you want to increase the price, don't hesitate, otherwise the guqin will be spent elsewhere! ā
At this time, Mr. Guo, who had just been determined to win, said loudly:
"Mr. Jameson, just drop the hammer! Master Bai Yan has personally taken action, who would be so short-sighted to sing against Bai Lao! ā
Mr. Guo's words immediately attracted a burst of laughter, and everyone felt the same way.
The atmosphere of the auction, which had been a little tense, suddenly became a little relaxed.
Jameson smiled bitterly, raised the auction gavel with kindness, and said:
"Five million six hundred thousand third ......"
"Five million six hundred and fifty thousand!"
Just as Jameson was about to announce that Master Bai Yan had successfully auctioned the guqin, Kohler finally raised his bidding card and quoted the price of 5.65 million yuan.
There was silence again.
Jameson's high-flying auction gavel was also fixed there, and he stayed for a few seconds before exclaiming in surprise:
"Five million six hundred and fifty thousand! A new offer has appeared! This gentleman with No. 99 offers 5.65 million! ā
The collectors in the audience immediately talked about it.
"Who is this? actually competed with Master Baiyan, I really don't know how thick the sky is! ā
"Today's young people are really ignorant, and they don't know how to respect their predecessors at all......"
"It turned out to be a foreign devil! No wonder ......"
Sitting next to Kohler, the middle-aged man who had just answered Kohler's question looked at Kohler with strange eyes, opened his mouth, and finally stopped talking.
And Xing Lina's heart was full of joy, her body was trembling slightly with excitement, she held Kohler's hand tightly, looked at Kohler with adoring eyes, and said delicately:
"Honey, you've been so good to me! I love you to death......"
Kohler looked at the upturned back of the seat in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a look of disdain.
Now the question was thrown to Master Bai Yan and the others.
Under the gaze of everyone, Master Bai Yan did not have the slightest displeasure, but said to Fang Yang with a smile:
"Xiao Fangyang, that's all the teacher can help you do, it's up to you to do it now."
"Thank you, teacher!" Fang Yang said with a smile.
Then he took the bidding card from Master Bai Yan's hand, held it high without hesitation, and said lightly:
"Five million six hundred and sixty thousand!"
This price is no more, no less, exactly 10,000 yuan more than Kohler's offer, which is also the lowest price increase for this lot.
Jameson expected that Fang Yang would definitely not give up lightly, but he didn't expect that Fang Yang would only add 10,000 yuan.
You know, just now, I added a million without blinking an eye!
The gap between before and after is too big!
However, he quickly came back to his senses and said:
"Master Baiyan's side has raised the price by 10,000 again, and now the latest price is 5.66 million!"
Although it was Fang Yang who made the offer this time, he and Master Baiyan used the same bidding card, and the two were obviously together, so Jameson still used the title of "Master Baiyan's side".
Because he didn't know Fang Yang's name, compared to this, the title of "Mr. No. 88" seemed a bit stiff.
Jameson has always been very detail-oriented.
Kohler's face turned cold, and without waiting for Xing Lina to be cute, she immediately raised her bidding card and shouted:
"Five million seven million!"
After speaking, he also glanced at Fang Yang demonstratively, as if to say that your 11,000 price increase is too bold, learn from Lao Tzu!
It's a pity that Fang Yang didn't even look back.
Moreover, Fang Yang did not wait for Jameson to repeat the offer again, he raised the bidding card without hesitation, and said in a light tone:
"Five million seven hundred and seventy-one!"
His price was quoted almost as soon as Kohler's words fell, apparently without thinking and weighing at all, and completely blurted out.
Kohler's face sank, and after a slight groan, he immediately raised the sign, gritted his teeth and shouted:
"Six million!"
This time it increased by nearly 300,000, he obviously wanted to use the high price to make Fang Yang retreat, but unfortunately his wishful thinking failed, Fang Yang still looked light, and when Kohler's quotation was just given, he immediately raised the sign in his hand, and said neatly:
"Six hundred and ten thousand!"
To be precise, Fang Yang's bidding card was not completely put down, just waiting for Kohler to quote the price, and then immediately raised the sign in his hand.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Everyone could see that the two young men had already pinched.
And the experienced Jameson did not even repeat the offers of both sides. On the one hand, the two of you come and go too fast, he can't interject at all, on the other hand, he also knows that at this time, it is to let the two of them go and fight, and stimulate the fire, but the effect is the best.
Fang Yang's practice of adding 10,000 at a time also made Kohler as disgusting as eating a fly, indeed as Jameson hoped, Kohler's anger came up first, he gritted his teeth and raised his card and said:
"Six and a half million!"
Everyone exclaimed, Kohler actually added 500,000 at such a high price at once! You must know that this guqin is unknown in history, in everyone's opinion, five million is the sky, and it is not worth so much money at all.
"Six million five hundred and fifty thousand." Fang Yang, as always, gave his price lightly for the first time.
Everyone can see that Fang Yang's increase of 10,000 yuan every time is not a lack of financial resources or weighing the pros and cons, but to express a strong message to everyone: I am going to decide on this piano, no matter how much you bid, I will have 10,000 more than you!
Be confident! Domineering enough!
Everyone looked at Fang Yang with complicated eyes, not to mention anything else, this young man was facing millions of dollars, and this kind of calm and light bearing was convincing.
Kohler's nose was almost crooked, he originally thought that six million would definitely be able to win this guqin, but in fact, six million was already more than his psychological bottom line, and it was really not worth spending six million for a woman like Xing Lina.
I didn't expect Fang Yang to be so difficult......
However, Fang Yang's indifferent attitude made Kohler extremely mad, he was already carried away by anger, panting and raising his card with a hideous face:
"Seven million!"
That look seemed to want to devour Fang Yang alive.
"Seven hundred and one thousand ......" Fang Yang followed up without hesitation, still quoting the price that everyone expected without any thought.
"I'm cĒo......" Kohler couldn't help but burst out in a low voice a Chinese curse.
Just as he wanted to continue to raise the offer hysterically, Finn beside Fang Yang suddenly turned his head, glanced at Kohler with a smile, and then showed a meaningful smile.
Khloe calmed down as if he had been drenched in ice water......
