Chapter 1907: An Unexpected Auction
Lu Yu turned his head to take a look, and his eyelids picked slightly.
The man hurriedly said, "Don't look at it like that, if it is discovered, I'm afraid it won't be good." ”
"Yes. ”
Lu Yu smiled lightly and turned his head.
We chatted a few more words, mostly talking about things like cultural games.
At this stage, two things are suddenly on fire.
One of the natural ones is this moon stone.
And the other one is jadeite.
I don't know why, maybe ...... It is the continuous improvement of women's status in society, so this kind of thing specially worn for women is also rising, perhaps because many foreign women have also begun to like this kind of thing, and the demand is great, and the value will naturally be high.
Maybe it's because the legendary demon king of the demon clan likes things like jadeite, and even that kind of terrifying existence, so ...... Ordinary people naturally have no reason not to like it, a model of the so-called celebrity effect.
Maybe...... There are all these reasons.
Anyway, now the price of jadeite has increased several times, and the best of them is even higher to the point of outrageous.
One simple thing can be seen.
That is, among the newest scams in the world, they are all related to ancient jadeite, which shows that its value has really increased too much.
Other than these two, that's wood.
All kinds of wood have exceeded people's imagination and become a kind of ...... 'natural gold', which is loved by everyone, and perhaps most importantly, by foreigners.
After all, since many years ago, after the Celestial Empire became the world hegemon, more and more foreigners tried to understand the culture of the Celestial Empire, and then ...... fell into one metaphysical pit after another.
These cultural games are naturally the top priority.
We talked for a long time, and then ...... The auction began.
There is no such ...... as Lu Yu imagined It's a complicated opening ceremony, and the kind of speech that can stir people's hearts.
In fact, the auction looks a little simpler.
A polite-looking guy walks up to the stage and gets the first auction item straight away, or even ...... None of the old-fashioned hot lots, but ...... In order, the auction will be conducted in the order in the album.
So the first and second games, it looked a little cold.
Some people really like it, so they are bored, lazily raise the sign in their hands, or increase the price by default, or shout out their own qualitative price.
Usually when this happens, the thing is decided.
Even the first seven lots, there was nothing exciting about it, and the scene was very dull at one point, but even so, these things sold for their due value.
It is said to be dull, but on the other hand, it can also reflect the ...... here Style.
There are no fancy ones, that is, goods, buyers, competition, the simplest and purest, no need to be enthusiastic, no need to be excited, just need to calmly think about how much this thing is worth, and then conduct a rational auction, and that's it.
Getting rich rarely happens here, and fierce bidding is rare. But it is precisely because of this that it has gradually become the most recognized auction house in Zhonghai City, and after many years of development, it has become so big and has such a position in the world.
Through several auctions, Lu Yu actually felt that he had benefited a lot.
This marketing tactic...... It looks like it's going to last a little longer.
The eighth lot, after being pushed out, has not yet opened the hood, and the atmosphere of the whole venue has changed.
It seems a bit abstract to say that the atmosphere is, but in fact, everyone's breathing suddenly became rapid, and with the secretion of adrenaline and the increase in body temperature, the temperature in the entire venue has indeed increased by two or three degrees!
Everyone is like a hot stove, fighting against the air conditioner.
"Three hundred thousand!"
A voice suddenly exploded in silence.
Everyone turned their heads to look at the man, visibly ...... It's a guy with an extremely anxious expression.
The auctioneer was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "This gentleman, the auction has not officially started, so it is unruly to shout bids, if it is normal, it will disrupt the auction order and exempt you from bidding, but...... After all, this lot will make people so excited, so even if it is this time, I hope that you will not make another mistake, after all, the auction will start soon, and you will have a chance, sir. ”
The man was not ashamed to say this, and even the others did not laugh at him, but turned their heads, and then looked directly at the cart that was pushed up.
The auctioneer opened the cover, then took a deep breath, sighed, and said: "In fact, the auction of this item, our auction house has also gone through a period of struggle, we have worked hard in the auction for so many years, whether it is vision or courage, we are stronger than ordinary people, and we have accumulated some savings over the years, so when these lots come, we really plan to have an internal auction and digest them directly." But...... No, because we are auctioneers, this is an auction house, and even if we want to, we can only participate in it during non-working hours, as an ordinary bidder, and to be honest, among them here today are my family members, and the purpose is also to try our luck and see if we can buy this lot home. It...... That's the value. And I'm sure there's not a single one of you who doesn't know what it is, what its effects are, and I think you must know more about it than I do, so ...... I won't say more nonsense, the auction will start immediately! This is a 20 cent moon stone, the price is 170,000 yuan, the price may be slightly higher than you know, but I believe that the final transaction price must be much, much higher than this price, so ...... Let's go!"
At the beginning of the sentence, almost all the people present raised the signs in their hands at the same time.
This is the trouble.
Because the rules are like this, one is lifted, the others can't be lifted, and the next one will continue after the quotation is reported.
This is the default rule and everyone will follow it.
But this time...... There are exceptions.
So it's troublesome too.
Because everyone lifts it, there is almost no order, and the price ...... How much is it time to go up?

For 170,000 lots, a one-time increase is at least 5,000.
How much is it now? Who can say?
But after all, this is one of the best auction houses in the Celestial Empire, and it has long been prepared for this situation.
The auctioneer smiled lightly, and then said: "Please put your hands down, because everyone is involved in the bidding, and the bidding price is naturally multiplied by the minimum mark-up limit according to the number of people, and the number of people present today is four hundred and twenty-seven, oh, it is four hundred and twenty-eight, even if it is four hundred, with the minimum limit of five thousand each time, it is two million, so ...... This 20 moon stone is now auctioned for 2.17 million, and there are still ...... If there are no bids, the auction will be considered unsuccessful and we will immediately proceed to the next auction. ”
Auction houses are like that, every decision will be made with the idea of reducing a bad and adding a good.
Now, it is through this method that everyone present is warned of this unruly price increase.
The second function is that after the auction fails, the moon stone can be auctioned within the auction house, and they have the qualification to buy it at a low price.
Because the market price of twenty moon stones is about 400,000, these more than 2 million are far more than this number, and no one will really bid to buy them again.
But......
A sign was raised directly, lonely on the venue, extremely eye-catching.
Even the auctioneer was stunned, and then said embarrassedly: "This gentleman, the current price is two million one hundred and seventy five thousand, are you sure you want to bid?"
The man stood up, first nodded at the crowd in all directions, and then said: "I don't dare what the market price is, I don't plan to compete with you big brothers when I come here today, I just want one, no matter how big or small." I think I've paid a lot of money, but among all of you, I'm lucky to be able to buy such a lot, so ...... Please let me come this time, thank you. ”
It was said very sincerely, and it saved enough face for everyone present.
Everyone thought about it for a while, on the one hand, it was really not cost-effective to buy such a small piece at such a high price, and on the other hand, the other party also gave steps, which was better than ...... It's good to be a favor.
So...... In the astonishment of the auctioneer, the transaction of this first piece of moonstone turned out to be ...... It's done!
And at an absolutely high price.
The auction even felt a little embarrassed, so they reduced the auction fee to him by one percent, that is, more than 200,000 yuan, and then handed over the goods on the spot.
The auctioneer thought about it for a moment and felt that this was a good opportunity.
He quietly changed the order of the auction and directly lifted a two-carat moon stone out.
Let's be honest...... The two-carat moonstone lies calmly on the white fluffy mat, but under the light, it exudes a white brilliance that is more eye-catching than the light, hazy, like watching the moon in the fog.
Two carat moonstone, really...... It has reached the point where there is no so-called market price.
Millions can also be, a high price of 100 million...... No one will find it abrupt.
Such a big one has such value.
A carnival of auctions, a hustle and bustle, is really going to start immediately.
Still...... At this time.
Mutations occur.
One person stood up directly, the person was dressed ordinarily, although it was clean, but compared to the situation of the various brand-name exhibitions present, it looked really ordinary.
What he was holding in his hand was not a bidding sign.
Rather, it was a small square piece of metal, and a box made of sandalwood.
The auctioneer was stunned for a moment, and then said, "This gentleman, it's not time to bid yet......
Didn't wait for him to finish.
The man who stood up said, "I'm not here to bid." ”
One sentence made the audience laugh.
Aren't you here to bid? Why are you here to stand up like this? Are you here to see the excitement or are you here to make trouble? The key is...... Come here to make trouble? Don't weigh your own pounds?
The man also looked a little twisted, a little ...... shy, and then said hesitantly: "This...... A senior official from the auction came to my house and said that if I wanted to auction that thing, I could just come here, and with the sign in my hand, I could add this thing to the lot at will...... I felt like it was time, so ...... Now it's time to auction off my stuff, right?"
The auctioneer glanced at the brand, and sure enough, it was a special brand issued by the auction, and it really had the authority he said.
And the people who can hand out this sign are only two people in the entire auction.
He tensed up and said, "That's right, but ...... Can you give me a look at the lot you want to auction first?"
The man didn't know what it meant to hide it at all, let alone what it meant to conceal it, so he opened the box in his hand in a panic, revealing a piece of ...... A moonstone that is one size bigger than your thumb.
The moon stone is easy to recognize, and it is impossible to admit mistakes.
So a lot of people saw it.
One person in particular, the person in the box, suddenly lifted the curtain and shouted, "What's the matter with your auction house?
