Chapter 139: Acting
Mo Tian didn't expect that the organizer of this auction, the patriotic returnee who was rumored by the outside world, turned out to be an acquaintance.
It was the super strong man who was in Eatersman that day, Ah Leopard. Mo Tian couldn't help but think of the pain when he fought with him, as if he had been trampled on by thousands of mammoths.
Liu Feifei's reaction was even greater than Mo Tian's, that was because Mo Tian used hypnosis to make her think that she was in the hands of Ah Leopard in order to awaken the power in the depths of Liu Feifei's body, although Liu Feifei knew that it was just a dream after waking up, but she gritted her teeth with hatred for Ah Leopard who injured her master, and now she is naturally an enemy who is very angry when she meets.
And Zhang Xiaowen, who was not far in front, obviously recognized Ah Leopard, and her body trembled imperceptibly, and now Ah Leopard is also very well hidden, and there is no trace of spiritual power fluctuation on her body, it seems that the people of the Dragon Bureau have also been successfully bluffed by him, otherwise it would not be Zhang Xiaowen who only discovered Ni Duan now.
"What kind of medicine is being sold in the old man's gourd? Mo Tian looked at Ah Bao on the stage, and he couldn't figure out the old man's plan, so he was not afraid of robbing it himself.
On the occasion of Mo Tian's speculation, Ah Bao on the auction table was dressed in a straight suit, full of glory, with a professional warm smile, walked to the auction table and gently knocked on the gavel on the table, in the eyes of the full hall, he was not humble and said: "First of all, I would like to thank all of you present for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to this auction, all the proceeds from this auction will be invested in charity, and some cultural relics are entrusted to me by overseas friends to consign, as long as you can give them a price that makes them happy, you can invite these national treasures back to China......"
After an inspiring speech, a piece of cultural relics was put on the auction table, because A Leopard was present, Mo Tian, who didn't want to expose himself, converged his divine sense to the extreme, just like an ordinary rich businessman who was elegantly bidding, and instigated Liu Feifei next to him to bid twice, and auctioned a pair of extremely gorgeous porcelain jars, and suffered countless white eyes, although this is a nominal national treasure auction, but it is also a mixture of fish and dragons, mud and sand gathering, there are many folk products with no history, or imitation of extremely exquisite fakes。
And the porcelain vase that Mo Tian auctioned at a high price, the appearance of the flowers to the extreme is not from the master's hand, and only an explosive person like him who doesn't know anything will spend a lot of money to buy a flower jar that can be copied with modern technology.
"Honey, that jar is so beautiful, let's put it at the head of the bed when we get home. The lover spent a lot of money for himself, and Liu Feifei, who played the role of being adopted, naturally wanted to be coquettish and express her gratitude.
Mo Tian's rough salty pig hand gently pinched Liu Feifei's willow waist, and laughed: "As long as you like to place it anywhere, I think it will be more beautiful if you put two bouquets of flowers in it......"
The antique collectors around him cast a disdainful look, the person in front of him is not only a nouveau riche, but also a nouveau riche with no self-cultivation, even if it is a vassal elegance, it should be a little elegant, which is like him, it is simply vulgar to the extreme!
Of course, there are not a few nouveau riche like Mo Tian who want to join in the fun, the auction has been more than halfway through, and five of the more than 100 exhibits displayed like a stream have fallen into Mo Tian's pocket, although the five exhibits are mixed, but most of them are luxury goods with strong ornamental value.
The things he wants are not good or bad, as long as he sees it pleasing to the eye, or as long as the 'female college student' around him is slightly coquettish, no matter what the price is, he will not frown, it can be said that the middle-aged man in front of him is very good at interpreting the word tyrant with actual behavior.
"The next auction item is the last item of the auction, and I think everyone must have been looking forward to it for a long time. Hearing Ah Bao's words, the audience was slightly restless, and finally waited, indeed, many of them came for this antiquity, and these many people naturally included Mo Tian.
With the change of the lifting platform, a bronze tripod more than two meters high slowly rises from the center of the auction table, and on the bronze tripod, the scene of the confluence of mountains and rivers, birds and beasts galloping.
Yuhuang Jiuding, legend has it that in the early years of the Xia Dynasty, Yu drew the world for Kyushu, and the state set up a state pastor. Later Xia Qi ordered Kyushu Mu to contribute bronze and cast Jiuding. In advance, people were sent to draw the famous mountains and rivers, places of beauty, and strange things in various states of the country into an atlas, and then sent selected famous craftsmen to engrave these paintings on the body of Jiuding, and symbolized a state with a tripod. The carved figures also reflect the state's mountains and rivers.
After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, the nine tripods fell into disarray, scattered all over the place, there are three tripods in the museum during the Republic of China, and then the war was raging, only one tripod in the country was preserved, and it was rumored that the other two Kyushu tripods were smuggled out of the country by the invading coalition forces at that time.
And this time, the reason why Lu Yang, a returnee, became famous was because he brought back to China An Ding, one of the lost Kyushu tripods.
The importance of Jiuding to the archaeological community is self-evident, not only because Jiuding is a symbol of the ancient emperor is more powerful than the jade seal, but more importantly, it depicts the scenery of Kyushu at the beginning, whether it is personnel, birds and beasts or wind and clouds, thunder and lightning, all of which express the vision of the ancient people to look at the world.
It is precisely because of this Jiuding that so many antique collectors will flock to it.
"I think the importance of this side of Qingding does not need me to repeat with you, now this Qingding is also consigned by others in my hands, so the final auction price is not my final say, at the request of the auctioneer, the starting price of this Qingding is 600,000, each increase is not less than 20,000 ......"
Bang, with the mallet falling lightly, I heard a heroic voice shouting, "800,000, this Ding Laozi wants." Everyone turned around, but saw that the person shouting was a slightly rich middle-aged man, dressed in jewelry, and holding a girl who was old enough to be his daughter in his arms, and his thick hands were on the girl's waist, and the girl fell into his arms, looking like a pitiful bird.
Nouveau riche, this is the impression in everyone's minds after seeing him at first sight.
"My dear, what are you buying this cyan Dading for?" asked Liu Feifei softly, tilting her body.
Mo Tian smiled proudly, his nostrils turned to the sky, and said: "Don't do anything, don't you think that the hall of hundreds of square meters in our house is empty, if you can put such a bronze tripod on it, it will definitely look very magnificent......"
Mo Tian's voice was not loud when he said this, and the only people who could hear it were those research scholars around him, and when they heard Mo Tian say this, they almost didn't spit a mouthful of old blood on Mo Tian's face, and they were magnificent? Then why don't you make a pure gold, even more magnificent! The local tyrant gold is really tasteful, how can anyone put bronzes in his own hall.
The evaluation of this wealthy businessman by the people around him is almost low to a negative value, but Mo Tian said this sentence naturally not to them, but to Ah Leopard on the stage, the cultivator is deaf and clear, Mo Tian's words naturally entered Ah Leopard's ears word for word, and the acting has to act in a full set, Mo Tian no matter what medicine the old man sells in his gourd, he has to muddy the water first before he can touch the fish.
"One million ......" After a moment of silence, someone shouted out the price again, for a cultural relic like Kyushu Ding that contains historical significance, one million is not a high number.
The price soared all the way to 3.67 million, and finally many people gave up the bidding, and only a few people were left to compete.
"Three million and seven million, isn't it just a broken tripod, Lao Tzu really doesn't believe that he will not be able to buy it!" Mo Tian stretched out his hand impatiently and pressed it two more times on the bidder.
Probably everyone found that it was really meaningless to bid with such a rich local household who didn't treat money as money, and in the end there were only two people who were there to bid with Mo Tian, one was an old man with a white beard, who looked like an old pedant, and the other person turned out to be Zhang Xiaowen!
"Three million and eight hundred thousand ......" Zhang Xiaowen's monitor jumped another number, for the national machinery, this money is nothing at all, since this Kyushu Ding is what Mo Tian has been looking for, he naturally has to clap his hands no matter what.
The price is still rising, and when it finally broke through the five million mark, the old scholar shook his head and sighed slightly, even if it is Jiuding, it is just an ordinary bronze, except for the mountains and rivers on it, there is not much other research value, five million is already the maximum amount that his research funds can bear, and he reluctantly put down the bidding card in his hand.
"Five million two million, I said this young lady, can't you let go?" Mo Tian tried his best to show politeness, but his domineering gaze and questioning tone really couldn't make people think of politeness.
Zhang Xiaowen's response was even simpler, holding up the card, 5.5 million!
"Good, good, good. Mo Tian said three good words in a row, his face was angry, anyone could see that this five and a half million was not a random number for this local tyrant.
Anyone present wanted this treasure to be photographed by Zhang Xiaowen, the reason was that Mo Tian's nouveau riche appearance was too inadequate!
"My dear, didn't you say that you should learn to be a gentleman? The girl beside him was a person who could look at the situation, Mo Tian also hurriedly borrowed the donkey from the slope and nodded proudly: "Well, what my wife said is, I want to have a gentlemanly demeanor, isn't it just a broken ding? Hmph, Lao Tzu went back and made one with pure gold." Saying that, Mo Tianyi sat back in his position.
This play can't be played too much, it is just right to act to this extent, he has successfully attracted the attention of A Leopard on the stage, and even Zhang Xiaowen looked at him more.
That's right, Mo Tian just wants to arouse Ah Leopard's suspicions, and it's best for them to investigate themselves thoroughly, the best way to confuse a person is not to doubt, but to make people suspicious first, but after others check in every way, they find that you are innocent, then you will naturally be thrown into the blind spot of vision, even if they see you, they will think in their hearts, this person I have already investigated.
People will always be subconsciously influenced by their past judgments, and the smarter the person, the more so!
In the last few minutes of the auction, Mo Tian felt that his body had been swept by his divine sense no less than thirty times! And he pretended to be nothing, but his face still had the depression of not buying the bronze tripod, and he was teasing Liu Feifei beside him with his hands and feet in an extremely irregular manner, which caused the beauty to be ashamed for a while......
