Tomb of King Tanwen (4)
"These are all appetizers, the main events are in the back, and the finale is out!"
Mao Jin looked at Xiao Tao who walked to the side, looking in the direction of the upstairs with anticipation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info There, there are enough treasures to make people sin.
"A lot of them look fakes, can anyone pay for these things?"
Xiao Tao has a ghost pattern totem, and can feel the obvious difference between the real and the fake, especially the objects of some ages. Looking at the jade antiques, vases and crockpots in the glass cabinets, as well as a lot of ancient documents and currencies from past dynasties. However, there were still a lot of fakes, and he chuckled helplessly, walked to Mao Jin's side and asked.
"It's all deliberately made at a high price, and if you want the real thing, you have to contact the organizer!"
Sure enough, a few people who looked a little excited walked to Liu Gongzi's side, with a little eagerness in their expressions, and talked to him in a low voice.
Alas, people who are anxious can't eat hot tofu! Xiao Tao also saw that a few people in their forties just took a few more glances at their favorite objects, kept them in mind, and quietly walked to the next showcase.
"Hehe, it's just some means! True or false, let some uncontrollable fish take the bait and eat the bait first, and the real feast is all in the back! ”
Liu Gongzi's methods are not very clever, and some knowledgeable people can see through it at a glance. It's just because he has a few fresh faces that he found a few acquaintances, put down some bait, and wanted to catch some "big-headed fish".
Xiao Tao turned around for a while, and then lost interest. Many of the precious objects sold by famous artists are also genuine, but the market value is a little low. In the corners of some objects, an obscure figure is also marked. The meaning of its representation, Xiao Tao also understood after reading a few, that is, the signs of samples and fakes. Distinguish it from the real thing, and many old people who regularly attend such gatherings know this.
After watching it for less than half an hour, everyone gathered in twos and threes to comment on the value and significance of the things they were interested in, as well as the historical stories behind them.
Xiao Tao, who secretly sighed that he had taken a unique history and culture class, sighed lightly and followed more than a dozen of them towards the upper floor.
The real feast is about to begin! In a small auction hall with luxurious decorations, a capable man who looks like a butler is standing on the side of the auction table, smiling kindly at everyone who walks in. Mao Jin and Liu Gongzi sat in the front row.
The seats that are enough to accommodate nearly 100 people are sparsely packed with less than 20 people, plus seven or eight bodyguards standing aside, the scene looks very empty and deserted. However, Mr. Yu, Mr. Shi, and Mr. Chang also entered at the end, and found a random seat to sit down, which made Xiao Tao a little surprised, and thought that they would not come.
He also thought that these people would not show up on such an occasion. However, the housekeeper man who presided over the auction had already begun to introduce the first lot. His deep voice, which is about forty years old, makes him speak attractively, and after attracting the attention of the audience, he officially begins the auction process.
"This Song Dynasty porcelain, it is said that the prince was ordered by the craftsman at that time to carefully make it, used to reward the vassals, in addition to superb skills, but also represents the dignity and prestige of the royal family! The starting price, 400,000 yuan, each increase of 5,000 yuan, start bidding! ”
"Four hundred thousand!" "Four hundred and one thousand!" "Five hundred thousand!"
・・・・・・
At the beginning, everyone was still implicitly giving each other face, and the price increase was not large. And the auction steward is not in a hurry, the people present are all collectors, and the wealth is not low, so there is no need to worry about shouting prices.
"Congratulations to this gentleman for winning this lot at a price of 720,000 yuan! Next, let's take a look at the next lot! It is said that during an accidental salvage, someone was lucky enough to find it. After several tosses, he finally appeared in front of the bosses! ”
The auction went smoothly, and the atmosphere was not too hot and intense, but it was not deserted either. Several of the good and well-preserved lots fetched a lot for a good price. Liu Gongzi and several owners of the lots, the smiles on their faces never dissipated.
More than a dozen lots were auctioned in a row, and most of them found their respective buyers at quite good prices. Next, it's the main thing. Looking at those people who sat up straighter and began to look solemn, Xiao Tao's eyes flashed with a bright color.
"Next, I would like to invite the beautiful lady to show us the next precious lot!"
A tall figure, wearing a red cheongsam with a high slit at the hem, revealing her fair and seductive legs, walked an elegant model step, and came to the stage with a tray in her hand. Although the red cloth on the tray was not lifted, you can guess that it should be a sake bottle or something like a wine bottle if you look at its appearance.
The tall lady who attracted the attention of many people, with a charming smile on her delicate makeup face, gently placed the tray on the booth under the gesture of the auction housekeeper's eyes, and then unveiled the red cloth.
"This bronze wine vessel is identified as an object from the Han and Han dynasties! The starting price, 1.2 million, each price increase, not less than 10,000, start bidding now! ”
Although it did not go into detail about its origin, everyone present knew it. I'm afraid that some people went to open a big tomb, or if they were lucky, they received it from someone who didn't know how to do it, but most of them were the former.
"One million two hundred and one thousand!" "One million two hundred and twenty thousand!" "One million and three million!" "One million eight million!"
・・・・・・
With the power of the people behind Liu Gongzi, it is impossible to fool them with fakes, so the price only increased a few times, and it began to soar, and it rose to more than two million in a short time, and Xiao Tao's eyes flickered. These people who don't treat money as money really taught him a valuable lesson and explained the true meaning of spending money.
"Congratulations to this gentleman for this lot! Next, once again, we invite the charismatic lady to bring us the next precious lot! ”
Dressed in a red cheongsam and wearing a pair of white gloves, he walked to the side of the auction steward with a smile on his face.
"I believe everyone will be familiar with this thing! Yes, this is the holy edict issued by Emperor Chrysostom to his ministers and the world! Moreover, the text recorded above is also an extremely valuable research document! It was the emperor at that time, and when he was sealed, he used it to announce it to the world! The starting price, 2 million, each increase is not less than 10,000, now start bidding! ”
Although the voice fell, the discussion below did not stop, and the housekeeper was not in a hurry, looking at everyone with a smile on his face, but he frowned, and there was a struggling expression.
