Chapter 223: No Invitations
The atmosphere is a little weird and solemn, just when everyone is depressed, the next scene makes everyone feel that they are dazzled or hallucinated!
I saw that Zhao Lao, who was extremely respected in everyone's minds, bowed slowly to Tang Ze and said, "Master, master!"
Cao Chong felt his head thump and wondered if he was really crazy.
What the hell is going on here......
Su Xue didn't understand antiques, but she also knew that Tang Ze didn't seem to suffer a big loss as Cao Chong expected, but seemed to be going in the opposite direction.
Finally, someone couldn't help but ask, "Old Zhao, what's wrong?" this old man...... Sir, what does that slap mean?"
Zhao Lao made a gesture of please, Tang Ze shook his head lazily, and then Zhao Lao nodded and began to explain.
"The real value of this vase is more than ten million. ”
The first sentence was as if a thunderbolt had been dropped in the venue, and the entire venue was boiling, with some doubting, some surprised, some regretful, and some dumbfounded like Cao Chong.
"I know that many of you here are connoisseurs, and you will judge the vase by its shape, its patterns, and even the laws and customs of the time. ”
But you are relying too much on your experience and knowledge and ignoring what you see. ”
Someone asked tremblingly, "Elder Zhao, may I ask what we are missing?"
Zhao Lao slowly stretched out a palm, this time no one rushed to despise this ordinary palm.
"Look closely, the dragon pattern on the bottle. ”
Everyone suddenly looked back and looked at the big screen, and the screen cooperated to give a close-up of the dragon pattern.
A minute passed.
Three minutes passed.
Five minutes passed.
Finally, someone exclaimed, "Claws, this dragon has five claws!"
There was an uproar at the scene, and Xu Bowen quietly asked, "Tang ...... Mr. Tang, is there any difference between the five claws?"
Tang Ze said lightly: "Listen to it." ”
"That's right!" Zhao Lao's loud voice resounded through the venue, "The difference between five claws and four claws directly increases the net worth of this bottle fifty times!"
"As you all know, the dragon pattern is a common ornament of the royal family, but the claws of the dragon on the ornaments of all royal relatives and nobles are four-clawed!"
"Only the things used by the emperor himself are the five-clawed golden dragon! These rules were iron laws at that time, and if they were transgressed, it would be a capital crime of rebellion!"
"Then the question is, according to your analysis, this is a worthless folk imitation, so why not imitate the prince's four-clawed dragon, but imitate this five-clawed dragon that kills its head as soon as it is sold?"
Except for those who come to play soy sauce, the real antique players have been basically transparent when they are said like this, and this vase definitely has a great history!
Zhao Lao continued: "Then why is an ordinary vase in the folk style a real emperor dragon pattern?"
"This starts with the dashing and amorous character of Emperor Qianlong...... It is said that once again he went out on patrol in micro-clothes, and met a beauty who could make ceramics on the shore of Daming Lake......"
Oh, my God!
Some of the guests beat their chests, not because they lost five million, but because they were ashamed of their ability to appreciate them!
This TM is Qianlong's token of love in the people!
This is a matter of money, this is the most important opportunity of a collector's life!
"Old man, I'll give 10 million, can I cut my love!"
"I'll give fifteen million!"
"I'm me, I'm twenty million!"
For a while, such voices came and went, Cao Chong sat on the sofa, he didn't believe that this eighteen-year-old man was actually stronger than his appreciation, and he didn't want to believe that he really didn't spend a dime, but could earn one or two million!
He glanced at Su Xue and found that Su Xue looked at Tang Ze with a complicated expression, and the fire of jealousy in his heart rushed to the sky!
Suddenly, he thought of a brilliant idea, his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Old Zhao, this person was mixed in, he doesn't have an invitation ticket, and he is not qualified to participate in the auction at all!"
Everyone was surprised for a moment, such an appreciative boss, you said he got in, and there was no invitation ticket?
And some of Cao Chong's friends, who knew the inside story, all took a few steps back, and looked at him with a hint of disdain in their eyes, even the people he invited in could deny and report them, such a person......
"We ...... We weren't invited in by that person! We didn't sneak in!"
Xu Bowen jumped up in a hurry, and the fat of his two-hundred-pound body bounced up round and round, "I don't believe you asked him, ask Cao Chong and Su Xue!"
"I don't know them at all!"
Cao Chong sneered and said, a fool will admit that if Tang Ze loses his qualifications, this vase will naturally be the second highest bidder.
In this way, not only can all the previous losses be made up, but also a lot of money.
The most important thing is that he really wants to see Tang Ze's expression of falling from heaven to hell!
Tang Ze couldn't see any expression on his face, but his eyes turned to Su Xue, but Su Xue seemed to be burned by his gaze, and hurriedly lowered his head without saying a word.
Zhao Lao saw it in his eyes, probably knew the ins and outs of the matter, and sighed silently in his heart.
Cao Chong took a step forward and looked at Tang Ze with a smile: "Old Zhao, this person didn't have an invitation, sneaked in and made trouble at the venue, please expel him now, and give the things he photographed to the second highest bidder according to the regulations." ”
Zhao Lao snorted, but didn't say anything, his personal feelings can't affect the operation of the auction rules, which is why the major families have been relieved to hand over the auction to him for so many years.
"Sir, you really don't have an invitation?"
Xu Bowen was anxious and incoherent: "I...... We didn't sneak in, we were really invited, Lao Zhao, you ask them!"
Tang Ze knocked his head before he calmed down.
"Because of his words, I'm going to show the invitation? Can I report it to everyone present?"
Zhao Lao frowned and said: "Most of them are old customers, even if others report it, it is useless, and you are the first time to come, you need to show an invitation." ”
"His name is Tang Ze, a sick little old man, a poor boy from the countryside!" Cao Chong said hatefully, "I don't believe that people like him are also qualified to join the club!"
"Haha, Tang Ze, I'm afraid you haven't seen it at all. Cao Chong took out a beautiful card from his arms, "See, this is an invitation, a symbol of identity and status, how can you have a person like you, who has never seen it!"
"Please show me your invitation, sir. Zhao Lao accentuated his tone.
"I don't have an invitation. Tang Ze was silent for a moment and spoke.
