When Tang Yun and Zhou Jiajia came to the hotel, there were already a lot of luxury cars parked near the hotel at this time, which shows that there are quite a few people participating in the auction tonight.

On the top floor of the hotel, Tang Yun and others successfully entered the auction venue after showing the invitation letter.

The hall of the venue was full of people, acquaintances greeted each other, and the guests who came here were obviously of high quality, although there were many people but not noisy, most of them were whispering.

"Xiao Tang, why are you here? I, Mr. Zhou, and Mr. Zhou have been waiting for you for a long time!"

Seeing Tang Yun appear, Liu Tianxiong walked up to him and said.

"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not late!" Tang Yun said with a smile.

"Uncle Liu, where did my dad go?"

Zhou Jiajia looked around and said.

"Oh, you said that Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhou, they are over there!"

Liu Tianxiong pointed to a few people not far away and said.

Tang Yun followed Liu Tianxiong's reassuring look, at this time, Zhou Lao and Zhou Nanfeng were talking and laughing with a middle-aged man wearing glasses, and there was a little girl who was about thirteen or fourteen years old and quite handsome.

"Huh, isn't that Mr. Chen? He's here too?"

Tang Yun looked at it intently, and the middle-aged man wearing glasses was Teacher Chen Guanxi, who was also an antique appraisal expert with Zhou Lao.

"Yes, before you came, we stayed with Teacher Chen. ”

"Sister Jiajia~"

At this time, the little girl beside Chen Guanxi saw Zhou Jiajia's appearance, and then ran over to this side while waving her hand, and threw herself into Zhou Jiajia's arms.

"Mengmeng, you're here too?"

The little girl in front of her is Chen Guanxi's daughter, Chen Mengmeng.

"Yes, Daddy brought me here!"

The little girl pointed behind her, and Chen Guanxi, who was walking towards this side, said.

Seeing this, Tang Yun stepped forward quickly and said hello to Chen Guanxi, Zhou Nanfeng, and Zhou Lao.

Because Tang Yun arrived at the venue a little late, not long after Tang Yun and Chen Guanxi and the others finished greeting, the auction officially began.

Zhou Lao and Chen Guanxi were specially invited experts, so the position was arranged in the front row, because of the family, Zhou Jiajia Zhou Nanfeng and the little girl named Mengmeng were also arranged by Zhou Lao and Chen Guanxi.

Tang Yun didn't care about this, and sat down with Liu Tianxiong, Wang Yu and others who chose a slightly lower seat.

"Sister Jiajia, is that little brother in the back your boyfriend?"

Chen Mengmeng pointed a little finger at Tang Yun not far behind him, and whispered in Zhou Jiajia's ear.

"Hmm..."

Zhou Jiajia tilted his head slightly, looked at Tang Yun in the distance, and nodded shyly.

"Good vision~"

Chen Mengmeng squinted and smiled, and then extended a thumbs up to Zhou Jiajia.

"You girl, you are a big ghost!" Zhou Jiajia rubbed Chen Mengmeng's little face and said.

Tang Yun, who was sitting in the back row, chatting and laughing with Liu Tianxiong, didn't notice that the two beauties in front of him, one big and one small, were talking about themselves at this time, because his attention was attracted by Liu Tianxiong's words.

"Uncle Liu, you just said that the antiques auctioned tonight include the blue and white colorful flower god cup?"

"yes, but it's not clear if it's a complete set. ”

Liu Tianxiong smiled: "Why Xiao Tang, are you also interested in this Flower God Cup?"

"I forgot to tell you before, in fact, about this Flower God Cup, I just collected three this afternoon..."

Tang Yun pointed to the black box in Wang Yu's hand and explained.

When Liu Tianxiong heard this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "I won't tell you, in fact, you Uncle Liu and I are also collecting colorful flower god cups, and now we are only missing the last August osmanthus cup, and we can make up a complete set!"

"Uncle Liu, you're also collecting?"

"Yes, it's just that I've spent a lot of time, money, and favors on collecting these cups over the years, but in the end there is still one missing..."

Tang Yun wanted to say something, but at this time, the scene suddenly fell silent, and he saw a man who looked like a host walking up to the auction table.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening, welcome to participate in this summer antique auction organized by Elegant Auction Company, I am the host of this auction Wang Hui, here, on behalf of Elegant Auction Company, I welcome you again!"

After the applause gradually subsided, the host Wang Hui said again: "Now I announce that this auction has officially begun! First of all, let's invite the first auction item tonight!"

As soon as the host's voice fell, two hostesses wearing red cheongsams pushed a trolley to the auction table.

"The first auction item tonight is the famous calligrapher and painter of the Qing Dynasty, known as the head of the "Yangzhou Eight Monsters" Jin Nong Master made the "Jade Butterfly Clearance Map", this painting has been unanimously identified by several experts, it is indeed genuine, the starting price is two million, and each bid shall not be less than 100,000!"

After the host's introduction, the atmosphere in the audience instantly became warm.

Who Jin Nong is, there must still be many people who don't know much about it, but if you talk about the "Yangzhou Eight Monsters", everyone must know.

"Yangzhou Eight Monsters" is the general name of a group of calligraphers and painters with similar styles who were active in Yangzhou from the middle of Kangxi to the end of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, and it is often called "Yangzhou School" in art history. In the history of Chinese painting, there are different theories, but it is more recognized that there are eight people: Jin Nong, Zheng Xie, Huang Shen, Li Yi, Li Fangying, Wang Shishen, Luo Ping, and Gao Xiang.

Jin Nong is the core figure of Yangzhou Eight Monsters, and he can be called everyone in poetry, calligraphy, painting, printing, piano music, appreciation, and collection. Jin Nong has studied calligraphy since he was a child, and his literary attainments are very high. His strong education made him the first of the "Eight Monsters of Yangzhou".

The paintings of Yangzhou Eight Monsters are rare in today's market, and are sought after by many collectors in the painting and calligraphy world, and the people who come to participate in this auction are basically collectors, and with the first quotation sounding, the rest of the buyers have also begun to bid, and the price of this painting has soared.

The price quickly rose from two million to four million, and finally soared all the way to 7.8 million.

As the bidding price increases, the number of bidders gradually decreases.

In the end, with the sound of a hammer from the host, this "Jade Butterfly Clearing Map" made by the famous calligrapher and painter Master Jin Nong was bought by a boss from Hujian Province at a high price of 8.88 million.

Tang Yun already had a "Journey to the Mountains and Streams" in hand, so at the beginning, he didn't plan to get involved in the auction of this "Jade Butterfly Clearance Map".

Besides, he really doesn't have much money available at the moment, plus the three colorful flower god cups and jade jade carvings he bought in Guyue Tower in the afternoon, Tang Yun calculated, and now he probably only has less than 30 million funds...
