Chapter 11: The mussel of the mussel
Zhang Kainian was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned cold, and some old faces showed anger.
"At a young age, he speaks wildly, and he doesn't even know how to be humble, such a person, does Duan Ye believe him?"
Duan Baodong smiled, "I believe it." ”
Zhang Kainian: ......
"Okay, since Duan Ye believes it, then the old man has nothing to say, but if you lose money, don't blame the old man for not reminding you. ”
Zhang Kainian snorted and sat down as well.
But he was still a little unwilling, sitting next to Duan Baodong, waiting to see how Ye Qing made a move.
Soon, the exhibits came up one by one.
In the beginning, the auction items were basically antiques, and most people were not interested in this kind of thing.
Because the antique industry has developed very maturely, there are many people with eyesight, and once this antique comes out, even if it is particularly rare, it can also distinguish the approximate price, and there is no profit.
The reason why this Moonlight Treasure Pavilion is popular is precisely because someone can get rich here overnight.
And those auction items that can get rich are usually very inconspicuous and look ordinary.
Whether you can make a lot of money depends on your eyesight.
Half an hour passed, and Ye Qing sat there almost with his eyes closed, bored, and had no interest in the exhibits one by one.
A few Duan Baodong were very interested just now, but seeing that Ye Qing didn't squeak, he didn't move.
The old man sitting next to him sneered when he saw this scene.
"Duan Ye, this young man can't be asleep, right? There are a few exhibits just now that are very good, if you can buy them, you will definitely be able to make a lot of money, but unfortunately, Duan Ye missed this opportunity. ”
Duan Baodong didn't speak.
Even if he was a little regretful, he didn't dare to make a rash move, after all, it was not what he was good at, and once he made a move, it was millions, and he couldn't afford to pay it.
Zhang Kainian couldn't stop sighing, his voice was not small, and he deliberately let Ye Qing hear it, with that disdain on his face, and patted his thigh from time to time to express regret.
Finally, when an exhibit was brought up, Ye Qing finally opened his eyes.
"This exhibit is called the Mussel King!" the host introduced.
Mussels, a very common thing, can produce pearls, which are not very precious.
But the mussels on the booth are unusually huge.
Ordinary mussels can have the size of a plate is already very high-end, and this time the auction of the mussel king is actually as big as a bathtub.
Oval in shape, the longest in diameter, a full 1.5 meters, comparable to a small bathtub.
Of course, although this kind of thing is a rare treasure, it is relatively ordinary in the Moonlight Treasure Pavilion.
Ye Qing nodded, "Buy." ”
Duan Baodong was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that Mr. Ye was so sure? The host didn't even say the reserve price, if the reserve price was too high, wouldn't he lose money if he bought it?
A few seconds later, the host announced.
"The reserve price is three million, please bid. ”
The auction here in the Moonlight Treasure Pavilion is different from the auctions in other places, they don't deliberately wait, they don't deliberately exaggerate the atmosphere, and they don't even introduce the exhibits in too much detail, after all, they don't know what they are.
"Three hundred and five. ”
"Three hundred and six!"
"Three hundred and eight. ”
“......”
It is difficult to determine how big a pearl will come out of such a large mussel, but if there is a rare treasure, it can make a fortune.
Soon, the price rose to five million.
Ye Qing motioned to Duan Baodong to ask for the price.
"Five hundred and five. This is Duan Baodong's first bidding.
His family background is not very rich, and the money he can use in his hand is no more than 20 million, but Yan Xiu is dead, and he will have more opportunities to make money in the future, so even if he squanders some money, he doesn't care.
Zhang Kainian sneered beside him, stroked his beard and said.
"Master Duan, this is not the first time this kind of mussel has appeared, there have been this so-called mussel king before, the price is basically around five or six million, and the pearls that are opened are actually like that, and the price is not high. ”
"Besides, in this Moonlight Treasure Pavilion, you buy and sell, and there are a lot of handling fees in the middle, and it is already very good to be able to end up without making money or losing money. ”
Zhang Kainian's words are not fake, this kind of thing has indeed appeared before, and the price is very fixed.
Therefore, after Duan Baodong asked for 5.5 million, there were relatively few people who followed the price.
Duan Baodong looked hesitant and glanced at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing was still expressionless, "Go on." ”
Zhang Kainian sneered instantly, "It's so inexperienced at a young age, Master Duan, in my opinion, it's better to stop, and then increase the price, it's really not interesting." ”
Although Duan Baodong also agreed with Zhang Kainian's words, since Ye Qing said it, he still chose to listen to Ye Qing's words.
"Seven million. ”
A few minutes later, a few people in this sparse Lala actually asked the price of this clam king to 10 million.
10 million is already Duan Baodong's limit, if you add it, it may really put down the family's wealth.
Although Duan Baodong was already a little anxious in his heart, Ye Qing was still unmoved.
"Keep adding, add as much as you want, and mortgage the property if you don't have money. ”
Ye Qing's voice fell, but Zhang Kainian laughed.
"Duan Ye, this kid you found, didn't you deliberately cheat you, right? 10 million, the probability of making money is already very small, even if you open the best pearls, I'm afraid you won't make any money or lose money, this kid actually asked you to mortgage the property and ask for a price? hahaha......
If it was someone else, Duan Baodong would naturally not believe it.
But, this is Ye Qing.
If Ye Qing wants to harm him, he still uses such a method?
He killed Yan Xiu like digging into a bag, why bother to harm him so much?
"Eleven million. Duan Baodong shouted out the shocking price again.
It's just a mussel, and it can be sold at such a high price, which is also the first time in the world.
Other bidders also felt that if it was any higher, there would be no profit to be made, so they gave up one after another.
In the end, the 11 million mussels were bought by Duan Baodong.
When the people on the stage were about to withdraw, Ye Qing suddenly stood up.
"Wait. ”
The host stopped and looked at Ye Qing with some puzzlement.
"Open the mussels, and the pearls are sold directly. ”
Open mussels?
Everyone was stunned, did they open mussels on the spot, and then sell pearls?
This kind of request is very reasonable, and the Moonlight Treasure Pavilion will naturally not refuse, and the other guests also want to see if they can produce top-quality pearls, so they are all quite interested.
The host called a few staff members and used professional tools to pry the mussel open.
With a click, the shell was lifted, and everyone's eyes widened to look inside.
A body blow.
The mussels are very plump, but the pearls are too ordinary, and they are a little deformed.
If it's a very round pearl, forget it, this color ......
This time it was a real loss.
The banter on Zhang Kainian's face became even stronger.
"I said a long time ago, I can't listen to him, Duan Ye still doesn't believe it......"
Just when everyone was sorry, Ye Qing suddenly picked up a knife from the table and cut it on the plump mussel meat.
Suddenly, the mussel meat was cut.
A purple, tiny mussel was exposed.
Suddenly, everyone suddenly stood up, shocked.
"A mussel in a mussel?!"
