Chapter 58: The Unreal Heart Appears
In the VIP room, Zhang Peng and Li Wei were looking at the entire room with excitement on their faces. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It is a room of about 20 square meters, facing the door is a huge LED LCD screen, three meters in front of the screen, there is a row of leather sofas, three of the four corners are placed half-height blue and white porcelain vases, and the last is divided into a bathroom.
"Xiaofeng! You're really getting better and better now! VIP tickets are all available! Zhang Peng stared at the huge blue and white porcelain vase standing in the corner of the wall, and said without looking back. Li Wei sat on the leather sofa and squinted his eyes comfortably.
Lin Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Luckily, I know a special appraiser here, he sent it." ”
"You know even the special appraiser!" Wang Wanruo blinked, looking surprised.
"Is a special appraiser very good?" Li Wei walked over and asked curiously.
"Of course!" Wang Wanruo had a natural expression, "In the entire Huaxia, there are only twelve special appraisers!" ”
"Twelve? Hey, zodiac? Zhang Peng smiled evilly.
Lin Xiaofeng also smiled, but when he saw Wang Wanruo's appearance that seemed to be a little surprised, he didn't feel a little strange: What is there to be surprised about?
Suddenly, the huge LCD screen lit up, and a handsome man in a suit said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, the long-awaited large-scale auction is about to begin, let us warmly welcome the auctioneer this time, Huo Tianhao!" ”
Then, Huo Tianhao, who was also wearing a suit and had a sunny smile on his face, stood on the auction table.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am deeply honored to be the auctioneer of this auction!" After Huo Tianhao finished speaking, he bowed deeply to everyone, but he didn't know whether the direction of his bow was intentional or unintentional, and it was right in front of Lin Xiaofeng's room.
"Then the auction begins! The first thing to ask out is the Eastern Han Dynasty inlaid beast-shaped gold box with inkstone! Unearthed in 1967 from the Tushan Han Tomb in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, the box is made of gold and inlaid with emeralds. The box is shaped like a mythical beast, looks like a toad, has dragon horns on its eyebrows, has wings on its body, and has a curly tail behind it, which is more like a unicorn and evil spirits. You can observe it up close through the screen in front of you, and after 3 minutes, the auction will officially start with a reserve price of 2 million yuan. Huo Tianhao's voice was steady, in one go, without stammering at all, obviously making careful preparations.
Lin Xiaofeng looked at Huo Tianhao, who was talking eloquently on the screen, and couldn't help but smile. It turns out that Huo Tianhao has the level of a senior auctioneer, but he has never had the opportunity to express himself. Now, I have given him this opportunity, and he has grasped this opportunity very well.
"Tut-tut! It's just such a thing that doesn't look like it, and it sells for 2 million! The world of local tyrants, we really don't understand! Zhang Peng shook his head and sighed, but the sourness in his tone was exposed.
The auction soon began, and the price of this Eastern Han Dynasty inlaid beast-shaped gold box with inkstone soared all the way, and soon rose to 3.5 million. At this time, there are significantly fewer bidders. In the end, a middle-aged man with a big belly won it for 4.25 million.
The first lot was sold at more than twice the reserve price, which greatly increased Huo Tianhao's confidence, and he was even more calm and unhurried in his conversation.
The second lot is a painting by Qi Baishi, with a reserve price of 3 million. After a round of competition, it was finally sold at a price of 5.76 million.
The third piece is a giant deep-sea night pearl with a reserve price of 5 million, and the final transaction price reached 14 million!
Subsequently, one by one the lots were constantly displayed, and they were pocketed by local tyrants who spent a lot of money. The atmosphere has been very lively, not only because of the high quality of the lots, but also because of the credit of Huo Tianhao, a senior auctioneer.
"Alas! When can I use millions of dollars as a string of numbers like this, that's good! Li Wei sighed.
When Lin Xiaofeng heard this, he smiled and said confidently: "There will definitely be that day!" ”
At this time, the lights in the hall suddenly dimmed, and beams of bright incandescent lights shone on an open space on the auction table, and Huo Tianhao's voice also sounded at the same time: "The next thing to appear is the ultimate lot of our auction - the illusory heart!" ”
As Huo Tianhao's voice fell, a circular hole appeared in the ground where the light was illuminated, and a cylinder shrouded in transparent glass was slowly rising. At the top of the cylinder is the heart of illusion, which emits a brilliant blue light under the illumination of the incandescent lamp.
"Wow!" There was an exclamation in the hall.
"The heart of the illusory is a 42.24 carat round blue diamond with 108 facets, which is unique in history! Most importantly, this innovative facet style not only does not make the whole diamond look trivial because of too many facets, but enhances the brilliance of the diamond! Next, you have a three-minute observation period. After that, the auction of Unreal Heart will officially begin, with a starting price of 200 million RMB, and each price increase shall not be less than 10 million RMB. ”
After saying this, Huo Tianhao's heart was still beating wildly, it was really because the value of this illusory heart necklace was too high! The main reason why I was able to become the auctioneer of this auction was because I was appointed as the auctioneer of this illusory heart, and the value of this alone exceeded the sum of the values of all the previous lots!
"200 million!?" In the VIP room, Zhang Peng and Li Wei were already wide-eyed, their faces were full of horror, they really couldn't imagine that a necklace could be sold for such a high price!
In contrast, Lin Xiaofeng seemed a little excited, and it was finally the turn of the illusory heart! He was also curious and didn't know how much he would end up fetching!
Soon, the auction began, and the first offer increased directly from 200 million to 250 million!
The excessively high price increase seems to have deterred other buyers, and no one has made any more bids in a short period of time.
"250 million once!" Huo Tianhao had to start the countdown.
"250 million taels...... 300 million!! There are buyers who have paid 300 million!! Huo Tianhao's tone suddenly rose a few decibels, showing his excitement at the moment, "Are there any more buyers bidding?" ”
"300 million for the first time! 310 million! Another buyer is bidding! Looks like everyone loves this illusory heart! Admittedly, this is a one-of-a-kind, rare necklace! 330 million! 330 million! Huo Tianhao felt that his heart was beating faster, and the blood in his body was flowing rapidly, and it seemed that the whole person had entered a state of excitement.
"330 million once!"
"330 million twice!"
"Didn't anyone increase the price?" Huo Tianhao asked, although the price was already very high, he always felt a little regretful in his heart.
Just as Huo Tianhao was about to shout for the third time, the numbers on the quotation board changed again. Seeing the numbers on the sign, Huo Tianhao's whole person entered a climax.
