Chapter 725: Being Smart Is Being Mistaken by Being Smart
Finn's eyes made Khloe break out in a cold sweat all of a sudden.
He suddenly came back to his senses, and his heart was even more abrupt, and he forcibly accepted the new offer he blurted out immediately.
At this moment, Kohler thought of a very strict question.
Fang Yang and Finn are in the same group!
Finn's intention was obvious, he was coming for the antique wine glass. And whether Fang Yang really wanted that guqin was something that Kohler was completely unsure of. If it is said that because of Xing Lina's battle of will, she threw millions to give her girlfriend a head, Kohler always thought that Liu Wu was Fang Yang's girlfriend, and Kohler felt that it was really a bit nonsensical.
So...... A thought popped into Kohler's mind.
Could Fang Yang have deliberately raised the bar with himself, raised the price to a very high position, and then pulled out, but he had to buy this guqin at an unacceptable price?
The more Kohler thought about it, the more he thought it was possible.
After all, Finn has to compete with himself for that antique wine glass later, and Fang Yang, as Finn's friend, jumps out first to consume as much of his own funds as possible, which is a very reasonable strategy!
Kohler felt that if he was Finn, he would definitely adopt this tactic, after all, the two sides had a verbal conflict over the guqin, and it was still very hidden to use this guqin as a breakthrough.
Kohler thought of Fang Yang's calm and even a little contemptuous tone every time he quoted, and felt that this was more likely.
Fang Yang must have wanted to provoke his anger, make himself lose his mind, and continue to quote higher prices!
Thinking of this, beads of sweat broke out on Kohler's forehead.
Almost fell in their way!
The Chinese are really insidious! Khloe thought bitterly.
Finn was a straight-hearted, and Khloe didn't think he could come up with such a plan. Kohler thought it must have been Fang Yang's idea. In order to deceive himself, he even moved out of his teacher, Master Bai Yan, which is really calculating!
While Kohler was thinking, there was a quiet stalemate on the court. Originally, the two of them went back and forth to offer higher and higher waves, but now that Kohler stopped all of a sudden, the atmosphere became a little weird.
Jameson was still secretly happy in his heart, judging from his experience, the battle between the two is unlikely to be divided for a while, and this guqin will definitely fetch a sky-high price!
Unexpectedly, Kohler was dumbfounded without warning.
Jameson even forgot to stir up the atmosphere appropriately and provoke the feelings of both sides.
Xing Lina, who was beside Kohler, suddenly became anxious. She has always been triumphant in her heart, seeing that Kohler did not hesitate to die with Fang Yang for herself, Xing Lina was still intoxicated by her charm, but she didn't expect Kohler to suddenly coax.
"Honey, make a quick offer! That kid can't hold it anymore......" Xing Lina said quickly.
Kohler was completely unresponsive, his brow furrowed at no idea what he was thinking.
Xing Lina was so anxious that she almost jumped to her feet, she couldn't help but pull the sleeve of Lakole's coat and said:
"Kohler, what are you thinking? People offer 10,000 more than you! ”
Kohler came back to his senses at this time, glanced at Xing Lina with some disgust, tore off Xing Lina's hand, and sat there without saying a word with a blushing face.
Jameson also reacted, and hurriedly said:
"What a wonderful and exciting offer! After many rounds of competition between the two sides, the price of this guqin has now come to seven hundred and one thousand! This price was given by the White Rock Master's side! This gentleman from number 99, do you continue to bid? ”
Kohler looked at Xing Lina beside him, stood up uncharacteristically, smiled and said:
"Mr. Jameson, I've decided to give up this competition!"
After speaking, he shrugged his shoulders and looked straight at Fang Yang in the third row, with a slight smug look in his eyes.
Lao Tzu won't take over, now you will lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot!
Jameson also froze for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Seven hundred and ten thousand for the first time!"
In fact, this is meaningless, if it weren't for Kohler's sideways intervention, the offer of Master Baiyan in front would have been enough to win this guqin, and now that Kohler has taken the initiative to withdraw, there will naturally be no suspense.
But Xing Lina didn't do it, she said to Kohler angrily:
"What's the matter with you? Have you forgotten what you told me? You said you would take a picture of the guqin and give it to me at any cost! Have you forgotten everything? ”
In fact, what Xing Lina couldn't accept the most was that this competitor turned out to be Liu Wu's boyfriend, needless to say, Fang Yang would definitely give the guqin to Liu Wu after filming it, so where would he put it in the future?
Lost face in the Pacific Ocean......
"I'm sorry Lina, I think this price is irrational, that guqin is not worth so much money......" Kohler shrugged his shoulders and said in a flat tone, "I will give you other gifts as compensation, I hope you understand!" ”
"I don't understand!" Xing Lina shouted hysterically, "Why do you want to show weakness to that kid!" Are you short of any money? ”
Xing Lina's tricky behavior made Kohler frown, and at the same time attracted the attention of other collectors in the audience.
This level of auction is considered to be very high-end, everyone is basically polite, and the voice will be as low as possible. Xing Lina's behavior seemed very impolite.
Kohler felt more and more bored with Xing Lina, but after frowning, he patiently explained:
"It's not a question of lack of money, it's not worth spending so much money to buy such a guqin!"
Xing Lina sneered and said:
"Not worth it? Can love be measured in terms of money? What you've said yourself, doesn't count now? ”
Xing Lina said very aggrieved, in fact, why didn't she use money to measure the purity of love?
Kohler shrugged, not going to explain any more.
At this time, Jameson on the stage shouted:
"Seven million and ten thousand for the second time!"
Xing Lina was even more anxious, she reached out and snatched the bidding card in Kohler's hand a little out of shape, and was about to raise it up and make her own offer.
Kohler said coldly:
"Lina, no matter what price you quote, I will never pay for it, you can buy it at your own expense!"
Kohler's words were like a basin of cold water poured on Xing Lina's head, and she was immediately deflated, threw the bidding card in her hand, and began to cry.
In her opinion, this is a great shame.
Kohler quietly picked up the bidding card from the ground and said:
"Lina, I'll explain to you when I get back, it's not that simple......"
Xing Lina was originally covering her face and sobbing, but when she heard this, she raised her head suddenly and shouted:
"I don't want to hear any explanations! Kohler, you untrustworthy villain, I hate you! ”
After speaking, Xing Lina picked up her handbag and rushed out of the auction hall without looking back while crying.
Khloe wanted to get up and chase after Xing Lina, but after weighing it up, he finally sat back in his seat with a complicated expression.
In Kohler's mind, that antique wine glass was a hundred times more important than Xing Lina.
But Kohler put this account on the heads of Fang Yang and Finn, and he thought that Fang Yang and the two of them were guiding him and Xing Lina against each other.
At this time, Jameson finally said:
"Seven million and one thousand for the third time!"
Boom!
The hammer fell heavily, and Jameson said with a smile on his face:
"Congratulations to Master Baiyan! This guqin belongs to you! ”
Fang Yang's hanging heart finally landed.
That guqin is mine! It was a bit of a tough process, but the result was wonderful!
The price of seven hundred and one thousand is really a bit high for ordinary people, but in Fang Yang's opinion, even if the price is several times higher, it is worth it.
That magical heat flow really helped Fang Yang too much!
There was also warm applause on the field, and at the same time, many people looked at Kohler gloatingly, this kid was not only competing with Fang Yang for the guqin is inexplicably cowardly, and the guide is returning, but also seems to have provoked his girlfriend, what a bad luck!
However, Kohler had quickly adjusted, and in the face of everyone's mocking eyes, he was not moved at all, and took the initiative to stand up, and said with a meaningful smile on his face:
"Mr. Fang, congratulations on getting what you wanted. You must be very happy to buy this peerless guqin at an 'ultra-low price' of 701,000 yuan, haha! ”
Kohler also specially emphasized the words "ultra-low price", his words were full of ridicule, and his heart also rippled with Fang Yang's happiness after their conspiracy was discovered by themselves and stealing chickens and rice.
Fang Yang looked back at Kohler, who was looking at him, and said lightly:
"Of course I'm happy, but you don't seem to be doing well!"
Kohler sneered:
"Mr. Fang, it's not good to hold on...... You have an ancient saying in China that you don't die if you don't see the Yellow River, and you don't shed tears if you don't see the coffin, I think this is really suitable for you! ”
Fang Yang felt inexplicable for a while, he didn't talk to Li Kohler anymore, shrugged his shoulders and sat down, turned his head sideways and said to Finn:
"Is this thing angry in the brain? Talking upside down, people who don't know still think that he won! ”
Finn knows Kohler very well, and naturally guessed that his "weird" smile at the last moment successfully played a role, and Kohler was suspicious, which is called being smart and being cleverly mistaken!
So Finn laughed and said:
"Whatever! You've got what you wanted, and it's something to celebrate, isn't it? ”
"Makes sense!" Fang Yang patted Finn on the shoulder with a smile and said, "I'll treat you at noon!" Have a drink, everyone! ”
"It's a deal!"
"It's a deal!"
After the first batch of guqin auctions, the next few auctions seemed a little dull. Most of the people here are experienced connoisseurs, and the prices of calligraphy and painting artworks are very transparent, so there is basically no such situation as just now.
However, under Jameson's successful mobilization, each lot still sold at a good price, and the auction price of the guqin just now far exceeded expectations, and Liang Jian, the manager in charge of today's auction, was also full of smiles.
With one lot after another successfully auctioned, finally, the antique wine glass that Finn and Kohler had been waiting for for a long time was about to make its debut
