Chapter 163: Sky-high auctions

Before the auction of the Pharaoh's Scepter, some ordinary antiques were auctioned, which was for those who had no money, and the price ranged from 100,000 to 1 million, after all, these are all masters, and it would be a shame to come and not bring back a few things at a time. Therefore, the auction company naturally has to consider the existence of middle, high and low-end customers, and prepare some worthless gadgets, as the saying goes, mosquito legs are also meat.

And the Pharaoh's Scepter appeared as the finale, with a starting price of five million. Each time the card is raised, the minimum is 200,000, and this threshold alone makes many people die in it. The host impassionedly explained the history of the pharaoh's scepter and its origin. Of course, there is some ambiguity in the origin. However, this did not affect the auction, and the starting price was 5 million, and the group of merchants from Egypt was the first to raise their cards, increasing by 200,000. A group of people also followed suit, and after a while, the price was raised to seven million. By this time, some ordinary spectators stopped bidding.

And the antique company from Jingdezhen weighed it and directly added one million, asking for eight million.

The Egyptian merchant seemed to be determined to win, and directly called for nine million.

The host impassionedly shouted nine million once, nine million twice.

As a result, before the call was finished, the antique company in Jingdezhen called 10 million.

The starting price of 5 million has grown rapidly to 10 million, which is really scary. The Egyptian patriots were also weighing, and several people bowed their heads and discussed, and raised the price by another million in one breath, asking for 11 million, while the antique company increased by 2 million in one breath, asking for 13 million. It can be seen that they are also determined to get, the Pharaoh's Scepter, this kind of famous antique, is the easiest to increase in value, plus this auction is public, as long as you buy it back, you will definitely not lose money. But there are naturally risks, after all, tens of millions of dollars to buy an antique, if it is difficult to sell in the future, it will be over.

I have to say that the antique company has really invested a lot in this regard, and it has directly increased by 2 million. The Egyptian merchants were directly frightened, but the Egyptian merchants were immediately heartbroken at the thought that their country's cultural monuments would fall into the hands of others. Of course, if they buy the antiques back, they can also promote their company, and as soon as they thought of this, one of them, who seemed to be a leader, stood up and shouted angrily: "Fifteen million." ”

The audience was silent, and this group of people were worth more than 100 million. But for them, buying an antique with fifteen million is really a bit too extravagant. There are a lot of luxury stuff, and if you blindly compare this one, it's really looking for death. Even the antique company felt that the price was too high, so they hurriedly called back to ask the boss. As soon as the boss heard this, he weighed it and issued the last order, adding five million, a total of 20 million, and striving to win this scepter.

Win this, and this year we will be the best antique company in China. The boss of the antique company said.

The phone was cut off, and the representative of the antique company stood up directly and shouted: "20 million ......"

20 million, many people at the scene swallowed a mouthful of spit. Sure enough, the people in Jingdezhen are very rich. Everyone held their breath, and the Egyptian merchants gasped for breath, looking at the representatives of the antique companies as if they were enemies. At this time, the host announced that he would take a break for 20 minutes and continue the auction after 20 minutes.

At the end of the first half, the people of the antique company called to report the situation, and the boss of the antique company was determined to win, claiming to chase another 5 million, a total of 25 million, to ensure that nothing went wrong. The representative of the antique company nodded, and was very satisfied with the boss's open-mindedness. Egyptian businessmen, on the other hand, are all making international calls to borrow money. Everyone didn't pay attention to Xiang Huaqiang, he and Ding Pei came to the window with a glass of wine, and asked Ding Pei to Hua Qiang: "Pepe, how much is this scepter worth?" ”

Ding Pei pondered for a while, shook his head and said, "Priceless, anything is fried." ”

Xiang Huaqiang smiled, stretched out his thumb and index finger, and posed for the word eight.

After a short break, the second half officially began, and the host announced that the current bid of 20 million by the representative of the antique company is far ahead, is there anyone else willing to bid? After the host finished speaking, his eyes scanned the audience, and the last fell on the Egyptian merchants, who all lowered their heads and looked a little guilty. The representative of the antique company is arrogant and looks extremely chic.

The host shook his head, and said in his heart that the past twenty minutes had been wasted again, and they still hadn't been able to get the money. The host announced, 20 million once, 20 million twice, 20 million three times, into ......

Before his deal was announced, the Egyptian merchant ran in and shouted to wait a minute, everyone looked back, this person walked to the Egyptian merchant position in front and said a few words, and these people immediately smiled. It turned out that the largest shareholder of an Egyptian consortium had just expressed support for 30 million yuan for the purchase of the pharaoh's scepter. Thirty million, that's thirty million.

The Egyptian merchant who had regained his hole cards suddenly stood up and shouted, "Twenty-five million." ”

Suddenly, the representative of Jingdezhen Antique Company was stunned, is this fate?

He sighed heavily, a little helpless, he was just representing the company, and he would definitely be KO by the boss again this time. The host swallowed a handful of saliva as if he had rejuvenated the second spring, and said with difficulty: "Twenty-five million once, twenty-five million twice......"

He deliberately dragged out his voice for a long time, expecting these local tyrants at the scene to bid again, but he waited for a long time, and no one bid on the scene, and finally he said with difficulty: "Twenty-five million for the third time." ”

The host was a little frustrated, this thing was priced at 50 million to sell, but now it is only 25 million, the price of the auction house is very important, as long as a host bids a high price, it will not be difficult to make money in the future, but today this hope seems to be dashed again. Just when the host was about to say the deal again, Xiang Huaqiang, who had been silent, said lightly: "Fifty million." ”

Five...... Million?

All the tools on the scene were shocked, 50 million, directly doubled. The host was about to faint with excitement.

The host coughed lightly, suppressed the excitement in his heart, chewed his tone and said, "No. 66 bid 50 million, will anyone continue to bid?" ”

The Egyptian merchants looked at each other, but did not speak. The price of 50 million is indeed a bit high, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford. But one of the true patriots, as if he was still reluctant, suddenly stood up and shouted, "Sixty million." ”

Sixty million......

The peaks and loops turned, and the host's excitement was beyond words.

That's a lot of money.
