Walk straight along the pedestrian street in the antique city, and not far away, you can see that there is a big signboard on the second floor in front.

Bowen Haihan Art Museum.

Take the elevator to the second floor.

It can be seen that there is a small exhibition hall of about 20 square meters in front.

There were about seven or eight people in the exhibition hall.

No wonder you have to go to the antique street to distribute flyers to attract people, it turns out that the popularity of this small auction is really not very good.

It's a remote location, and probably no one knows about it, but there's an auction here.

In the exhibition hall, there are less than twenty antiques in total.

Half of them are calligraphy and paintings.

Even.

One of them is also advertised as a painting by Qi Baishi.

It seems that the size of this painting is very large, about four or five square feet.

However, the starting price written above is only 62,000, isn't this a joke?

For this kind of thing, Zhang Yi will not look at it, because it is absolutely impossible to pick up this kind of leak in this kind of place. It is impossible for anyone to take Qi Baishi's original handiwork, get a starting price of 62,000, and put it in such a small auction house for auction.

I saw that Zhang Yi had been looking at this painting.

Soon, a middle-aged man walked over next to him.

"Brother, you also like this picture?"

"Oh...... No, I'll just take a look. ”

"Actually, I think it's pretty good, 62,000 starting shots, although, the painting style is average, it looks like it may be Baishi's entertainment work, not a boutique, but it's a genuine work. I don't think there are many people today, so it shouldn't be difficult to take it down, you ...... You won't rob me, will you? ”

Zhang Yi smiled and didn't continue to talk to the man.

And the man also went to the side, looked at other exhibits, and glanced at Zhang Yi from time to time.

Every once in a while.

Someone will come over and have a few words with Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi can see that these should be childcare.

And Zhang Yi can also guess their routine, which is nothing more than to make these collections look popular, keep Zhang Yi, and wait for the auction to start bidding.

In fact.

There is no need for them to come up and talk, Zhang Yi will stay later.

Because, after he looked at all the collections. He felt that among these collections, there were three things that were very suitable for Zhang Yi.

One of them.

It's a painting of a donkey.

This painting is very expressive, it is an ink painting, the kind of freehand, the introduction of the pen is clean and smooth, but the donkey's demeanor is vividly expressed.

The painting doesn't look like it was made by an ordinary painter.

Looking at the introduction of the painting, it is said that the author is Huang Zhou.

Huang Zhou is a very famous painter in modern times, and his donkeys are even as famous as Qi Baishi's shrimp. However, it is one of the four masterpieces of ink painting.

Of course, this painting also has its biggest problems.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible to put it up for auction here.

The whole painting has two or three obvious tear lines in the vertical and horizontal directions.

It is possible that in the inheritance of this painting, something has been experienced, and the painting has been torn into several pieces. Although it is now framed together, this kind of damage cannot be repaired by ordinary people.

Therefore, its value is definitely greatly discounted.

Damaged paintings, starting price, 25,000 yuan.

The other piece is porcelain.

This is a set of cups with a matching saucer.

Belonging to the shadow celadon of the Northern Song Dynasty, the porcelain is very elegant and exquisite.

However, there are obvious punching cracks on the cup holder and cup, especially on the cup, two punching line cracks, almost across the entire utensils.

It is precisely for this reason that the starting price of this artifact is quite low, only 19,000.

The last piece.

It's famous.

It is the famous Hetian jade, and it is also a Hetian jade seed carving.

What is the seed material, that is, after the jade is washed in the riverbed, there is the most core and perfect part left, with a little skin color, like pebbles like Hetian jade.

This one should not be an antique.

But even with modern Wada seeds, the price is still high.

In particular, this kind of exquisite carving, and with a little bit of reddish-brown skin, is even more valuable.

For Hetian seeds, a little skin color is the ID card of Hetian seeds.

And with this ID card, it can be proved that this piece of kodama is definitely the top grade among Hetian jade.

And this piece of Hetian seed jade carving.

The carving is the meaning of the marquis on the horse, a horse, with a monkey on its back. Moreover, the monkey's back has left all the skin color, and the design can be described as very ingenious.

However, this piece of jade carving is also problematic.

The problem is that this piece of jade carving must have been fallen, because there is obvious cracking in the monkey's head.

Immediately sealed the marquis, and as a result, the monkey's head was broken, which can almost be said to be devastating for Tibetan friends who like this kind of meaning.

Therefore, this part of the crack will also seriously affect its value.

After the jade is broken, it is very worthless.

Although this piece is a seed material, the starting price is also very low, only 9,000 yuan.

Of course, these things are not worth much to others.

The starting price is actually quite high.

However, for Zhang Yi, it is different. When he visited these antiques, he picked up all three pieces and appraised them with his right hand.

It's all genuine, no problem.

Of course, when appraising, Zhang Yi naturally had to save the last repair step. This will have to be repaired one by one after he goes back!

The problem now is to find a way to take these things down one by one.

And this kind of mind is definitely not allowed to be known to the auction house.

The smaller the auction house is, the more routines and shady there are.

Therefore, when observing these objects, Zhang Yi paid attention. In addition to the three antiques just now, he also picked up a few other pieces and looked at them, and he looked at them for a long time, and then put them down.

In fact.

Meanwhile.

In a corner that Zhang Yi didn't pay much attention to.

Someone picked up Zhang Yi to observe the situation of the antique and recorded it.

Of course, that person can only record it by Zhang Yi's expression and the length of time he has observed the antique.

Afterwards.

About an hour or so passed.

This small auction is about to begin.

In the exhibition hall, coming and going, Zhang Yi almost took a look just now, and there were no more than thirty people in total. However, by the time the small auction officially began, there were about fifty or sixty seats, and almost all of them were full.

Here, there must be a way.

However, when Zhang Yi visited those antiques just now, he also had a layout.

Round 1.

Zhang Yi did not raise his cards.

Because it was a calligraphy couplet of a certain flower exploration in the late Qing Dynasty, Zhang Yi was not interested in this at all.

No one bid, and this thing was directly unsold.

In the second round, although the collection that appeared was not one of the three things, it was one thing within Zhang Yi's layout plan.
