"Alright, let's start the auction of the penultimate lot. The ink inkstone on the screen is the ink inkstone used by Zhou Wenbin, one of the four great talents in Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty. It is carved from Xinjiang Hetian jade, which not only has historical and cultural value, but also is a very expensive kind of treasure jade. The chess pieces used by Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty were carved from Hetian jade, and now its value has multiplied several times. Therefore, the appreciation value of this ink inkstone in front of you can also be imagined. The bidding will start below, with a starting price of 1 million RMB, with an increase of 500,000 yuan each time. The auctioneer said loudly.
It's just that Zhou Cong, who was in the hall, couldn't wait to drink all the auctioneer's blood, because not many people paid attention to the inkstone, but he didn't expect that after the auctioneer finished speaking, there were now many more bidders than just now. Zhou Cong didn't have the guts, and he was embarrassed to say his identity out loud to the young staff member of the history museum. Now, one can only hope that the prices of those bidders are not raised so high.
"I heard that this inkstone is very related to the current Zhou family."
"The family originally belonged to the Zhou family, and I don't know what the reason was lost from the Zhou family."
"It's just that I don't know if the Zhou family will bid back for that ink inkstone this time." ……
When Hua Feng heard the voices of the bidders in the auction venue, he relaxed for Zhou Cong. It's just that the auction house has just started to shout that it is ready to bid. The translators next to the foreigners began to bid for the foreigners.
"Two million."
"Two and a half million." ……
"Seven million."
Except for the occasional Chinese or two, the rest were foreigners who were translating for the next ones. It's just that at this time, when a translator next to a foreigner raised the auction price to seven million, the auction venue had already quieted down, because now those rich people from big families in Shanghai didn't see anyone from the Zhou family come out to bid, and they thought that the Zhou family would give up the ink inkstone.
"Seven million, for the first time."
"Seven million, the second time."
"Seven million, the third time." The auctioneer had just finished speaking, and was about to raise the gavel to strike. Suddenly, a pair of eyes came out of the room, and when the men looked around, they were now coming out of a room on the second floor. Originally, the foreign translator was still proud, but when he heard this voice, he knew that the owner of the family had come out to bid at this time.
"Eight and a half million."
The interpreter looked at the foreigner next to him, and the foreigner shrugged his shoulders and shook his head to show that he had given up, because when he came just now, he had already discussed with the appraiser and learned that it was worth the money within seven million, and that the value of the inkstone would be worth seven million. Seeing that there were no bidders bidding below, the auctioneer knew that the highest price offered by those rich people was only this, but this time it was also to his surprise, in the five million years he had auctioned, it was completely worth the money. It's just that he doesn't know that there are some things that money can measure.
"Eight and a half million, for the first time."
"Eight and a half million, the second time."
"Eight and a half million, the third time."
"Deal, the No. 6 plate bid was successful." The auctioneer picked up the gavel on the rectangular table and struck it, excitedly speaking to the bottom. And at this time, Zhou Cong, who came out of the room, finally relaxed, after all, the 10 million given by his grandfather, in addition to the 8.5 million, there was still 1.5 million left, and the task given by his grandfather and father was completed, but seeing that the 8.5 million was given like this, he couldn't help but feel a little heartache, and the silver that began to spend in vain, I don't know how many beauties I can play with when I go to heaven, and the most important thing is that the ink inkstone is my own. However, if Zhou Cong thought about the antiques in the Old Summer Palace, which were originally the property of the Chinese, but were robbed by the British and French forces, and the Chinese did not know how much to spend to bid back their own auction items, he also felt that there was no mention of those at all.
The remaining three auction items are tonight's finale, so when the ink inkstone is finished bidding, they are all speculating and discussing the three auction items. It wasn't until half an hour later that the auctioneer began to announce the bidding auction. And at this time, many predators who had closed their doors and rested had begun to wake up, and some even took viagra with their eyes radiating to the three auction items.
"I'm sure you're looking forward to the remaining three lots! The penultimate lot is the opening of Hengsha Island, a small island next to Chongming Island, China's third-largest island. If the bidder is successful, he or she will receive the right to open and use it for 50 years. It can not only be built into a tourist scenic spot, but also into a port. With the economic development of Pudong, everyone knows the importance of this small island, so I won't talk nonsense. Finally, one of the most important requirements is that foreigners can participate in the auction, but there must be a Chinese partner, that is, for Chinese, the right to use this small island can be a sole proprietorship, but for foreigners, the right to use and open can only be a joint venture. The auction will start below, with a starting price of 1 billion yuan, with a price increase of 100 million yuan each time. After the auctioneer finished speaking, the young man next to him repeated it in English to the next person.
At this time, although the foreigners below have some opinions after hearing them, China's current policy is very beneficial to them. It's just that at this time, no one is shouting first, and they also want to see who shouts first? The auctioneer looked at the predators below and was a little anxious. Although they are waiting, if no one speaks first, how can they bid?
"It's not fun! I thought they would keep shouting! Zhang Yina sat aside and said. Hua Feng looked at the wolves in sheep's clothing at the auction below, and from the reaction of the auctioneer and those rich people just now, he learned that many rich people have the kind of eyes that are determined to win the opening of that island, but they don't know why the Zhou family and the Zhu family, as big families, did not participate in the bidding of this auction?
Hua Feng walked up to the ears of Zhou Cong and Zhu Renyi, whispered a few words, and the two immediately nodded excitedly to Hua Feng, then got up from the chair in the window and walked into the other two rooms in the hall respectively.
