Chapter Eighty-Three: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow
Zhang Xiaohu on the side was stunned. What's going on, this is, these two big guys' brains won't burn out, and they value this "Silver Vase Plum" so much.
The others were also very puzzled, but no one dared to ask more, but they were more curious about Wang Yi, the squad leader of the special recruitment class.
Instead of taking them back to the previous house, Lu Lao took them directly to the exit, where Andre had been waiting for a long time.
When Andre took them out, it was already evening school time, Wang Yi did not go back to the dormitory, but directly called Xiaoxue and Chen Zijie to take the paintings to Champs Road to gather, where the headquarters of Wanbao Auction House was located.
After saying goodbye to Norton, Wang Yi took a taxi on the road and went to the auction house first.
Wanbao Auction House is a well-known auction house in the country, with branches all over the country. The quadrennial Wanbao Auction, held in the auction house headquarters in Real, is a national event for the rich. Countless treasures will be auctioned here.
Wang Yi got out of the car on Champs Road and walked along the street. It's still some distance from the auction house, and the road is currently occupied by a dense crowd of antique dealers. This section of the Champs-ΓsΓ©es has been a gathering place for these antique dealers since ancient times, and all of them set up stalls regardless of the size of their business, and over time they have become a scenic spot in the real.
"Hey, brother, come and see my pair of enamel vases, this is a treasure handed down from my ancestors, if you like it, you can take 10,000 Austrian dollars away, and we should make friends." An antique dealer was spitting and chattering with a young man.
"I said old man, you dare to ask for 10,000 Austrian dollars for just these two broken bottles, you are poor and crazy, right?" The young man shouted at the top of his voice.
Wang Yi originally planned to move forward, but why did this voice sound a little familiar? Wang Yi looked back, okay, it's really not that the enemies don't get together, this young man turned out to be the Yin Zhiyu who coerced Xiao Qing last time.
The corners of Wang Yi's mouth hooked, since he had met him, then this time he would definitely be a whole scumbag.
"Boss, isn't it just 10,000 Austrian dollars, what nonsense to talk to him, I bought it." Wang Yi walked over and said.
"Hey, do you understand how to come first and come later, you ......" Yin Zhiyu suddenly froze when he saw Wang Yi.
"It's you!" Yin Zhiyu's eyes were a little frightened.
"Yin Zhiyu, do you remember me?" Wang Yi took a step closer with a smile.
"Hey, don't come here, this is Champs Road, if you do it, I'll call the police!" Yin Zhiyu said in shock and anger.
"Yin Zhiyu, I'm a civilized person, how can I do it? That boss, you sell these two vases to me, this person is a dick, and he's a scoundrel, don't wait for you to give him the vase and he won't pay and run away. Wang Yi said to the boss.
This antique dealer is a thin little old man, when he heard Wang Yi's words, he looked at Yin Zhiyu suspiciously, and hugged the vase tightly to his chest with both hands, for fear of being snatched by Yin Zhiyu.
Yin Zhiyu is really going to be angry, since the last time he suffered a loss in Wang Yi's hands, he would have brought two bodyguards to protect him, but this time he came to Wanbao Auction House to do business, and it was inconvenient to bring bodyguards, so he dared to be angry in the face of Wang Yi at this time.
It stands to reason that Yin Zhiyu has time to turn around and leave at this time, just to lose some face, but he went to ask the head of Wanbao Auction House to do something, and that person especially likes ancient enamel vases. Yin Zhiyu walked around for most of the day, just to see the vase in this stall pleasing to the eye, so he couldn't let Wang Yi cut off his beard.
"Mo Zhai," Yin Zhiyu said through gritted teeth, "There are rules, I am willing to pay 20,000 Austrian dollars to buy this pair of vases, can you afford it!" β
After speaking, he directly took out a bill of 20,000 Austrian dollars and threw it on the ground.
When the antique boss saw the 20,000 real money, his eyes showed greed, and he said to Wang Yi with some embarrassment: "This little brother, you see that people pay 20,000 yuan to buy my vase, and I can only sell it to him." β
Unexpectedly, Wang Yi said slowly: "Boss, your vase is a fine product of the medieval Tulip Dynasty, you see that this craft is rare in the world, why is it sold for 20,000 Austrian dollars?" Well, I'll pay 40,000 to buy it. β
After speaking, Wang Yi turned on the optical link, and a stack of 40,000 holographic projections of virtual Austrian coins emerged.
"Tulip Dynasty, your uncle!" Yin Zhiyu really hated itchy, this bastard obviously said this because he wanted to raise the price.
Wang Yi was also stunned when he said this, in fact, he didn't know much about the porcelain of the Tulip Dynasty, he generally only accepted some fakes, in fact, he could sell this pair of vases for 5,000. But after Wang Yi flickered like this, he himself was a little unsure.
"Yes, I have been in this vase for many years, and I won't do it if the price is less." Antique dealers are cunning, he echoed with a roll of his eyes.
Yin Zhiyu thought in his heart, the reason why this Mo Zhai was able to be favored by Xiao Qing, a woman with eyes above the top, was definitely not a fool. He raised the price so hard, obviously he wanted to swallow the two vases in one go. If these two vases are really so precious, the chances of success in giving gifts to yourself are greatly increased.
Yin Zhiyu sneered in his heart, in his eyes, this Mo Zhai was just a little white face raised by Xiao Qing, how could he be richer than him.
"Boss, I'll pay 100,000, I'm going to make a decision for this vase!" Yin Zhiyu said arrogantly.
The antique boss was about to faint with happiness, he never expected this pair of vases to sell for this price.
"What's the matter, keep adding money, fight with me?" Yin Zhiyu looked at Wang Yi arrogantly and said.
Wang Yi chuckled: "The vase belongs to you." β
Yin Zhiyu paid the money proudly and painfully, and walked away with the pair of vases on his toes.
"Blackie, are you sure that pair of vases are fakes?" Wang Yi asked in his heart.
"I'm sure it's sure and sure, this vase isn't worth even a thousand, not even a thousand, so this idiot treats it as a treasure." Mercury gloated.
Wang Yi looked at Yin Zhiyu's back sympathetically, and just wanted to leave, when he suddenly froze. A grinning statue of Maitreya Buddha on the stall caught his attention.
Wang Yi coughed lightly and asked seemingly casually, "Boss, how can this Buddha statue be sold?" β
"Hey, you can take care of my business today, what is the price of this Buddha statue, if you like to give it to you." The antique dealer said happily.
"Don't, one yard is one yard, you say a price." Wang Yi said with a smile.
The antique dealer haha: "The first time I saw such a polite person as you, let's do it, you can take it away with 200 Austrian dollars." β
Wang Yi gave 200 yuan to the antique dealer and took the Buddha statue away.
"I said Xiao Hei, why did you let me buy this broken Buddha statue, I can see that this thing is not an old thing."
"You're still too young, you take a closer look with a scan." Mercury said.
Wang Yi scanned the Buddha statue in his hand according to his words, he didn't know if he didn't see it, he was startled when he saw it, there was a cavity inside the Buddha statue, and there was a pair of brilliant jade bracelets hidden in the cavity.
"Is that all right?" Wang Yi was speechless.
Mercury smiled and said: "I'll tell you, you can make a lot of money this time, according to the analysis of previous data, your jade bracelet is likely to be a wedding gift from the last emperor of the medieval Tulip Dynasty to the queen, and the value is immeasurable." β
Wang Yi felt a little funny when he heard this, Yin Zhiyu's unjust boss spent a lot of effort to buy a fake of the Tulip Dynasty, and he was as happy as his grandson, he almost picked up a Tulip Dynasty treasure effortlessly, which is really a strong contrast.
Wang Yi found a place where no one was, broke the Buddha statue, and took out the pair of jade bracelets. The tentacles of this pair of jade bracelets are warm, and Wang Yi feels that his mind is a lot more stable, and he is really a good jade cultivator.
Wang Yi put the jade bracelet into the badge of courage, and at this time, Chen Zijie's phone called, and after Wang Yi told him the address, he soon drove the car to Wang Yi's location.
Xiaoxue jumped out of the car first and called "Brother Mo Zhai" sweetly. Immediately afterwards, Chen Zijie got out of the car with a large suitcase.
"I've brought all the paintings." Wang Yi asked.
"I brought three of them." Chen Zijie said.
"Three?" Wang Yi was a little surprised, he originally thought that there were only one or two, after all, this kind of masterpiece is too precious.
"That's right, how can you do good things without spending money." Chen Zijie said with a smile.
They entered the gate of Wanbao Auction House together, and immediately a staff member greeted them: "Hello gentlemen and ladies, do you want to make an appointment for an auction, or do you have a lot to sell?" β
"We have some precious paintings here that we want to auction." Wang Yi said.
"Yes sir, we will have a professional appraiser to value your items, please come with me."
Several people followed the staff to a room that was richly decorated, with chandeliers on the ceiling shining and the carpet on the floor.
A middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes was sitting in a chair reading documents, and when he saw someone coming from the office, he put down the documents in his hand and stood up.
"Professor Chen, these people are here to sell items, and I want to ask you to identify them." Said the staff.
After speaking, he turned his head to Wang Yi and said, "Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Chen Chen, an appraiser of our auction house and a professor of archaeology at the University of Real. β
Chen Chen politely shook hands with the three of them one by one. He said, "I don't know what you want to sell?" β
"Oh, it's three paintings, all painted by famous artists." Chen Zijie said and opened the box and carefully took out the three paintings.
Chen Chen glanced at it, his expression immediately became serious, he put on the professional identification glasses on the table, put on gloves again, and began to carefully study the three paintings.
