Chapter 81: Auction (1)
The theory of relativity is very obvious about time.
Soon, it was Wednesday. For most Chinese, the week has been unusually slow, and next Wednesday's auction has been in the national spotlight amid a succession of renderings. This week, no celebrities have rushed to the hot search, and at least four or five of the top ten are about the hot First Emperor's Underground Palace.
Although the auction process will not be videotaped, it will be live! And there is a professional CCTV announcer, which will be recorded and broadcast in the focus interview, and the final results will be announced. However, the buyer's name will be redacted.
Still, this did not hinder the enthusiasm of the whole people. Almost all major websites are estimating under the lot, and they feel that the lot they are optimistic about will sell for the highest price. In the end, there is no doubt that the Qin Terracotta Army won the championship. More than 30 million people voted for it. The second in line is the Changxin Palace lamp.
Jiang Xian swiped his mobile phone, looked at the votes of netizens on the forum, and took care of his tie with a smile. I have to say that netizens' estimates are very accurate, and he also thinks that these two things can be sold at a high price...... No, sky-high.
After all, they are equal to the symbols of Huaguo. The significance for foreigners and Chinese people is extraordinary.
"Laughing like an idiot." Lin Ruoxue stood behind the mirror, brushed his hand away, and helped him take care of his tie. Today, Jiang Xian wore a dark blue slim suit, which looked even more thin and long-legged, coupled with a bright red tie, which was calm and energetic.
Lin Ruoxue arrived yesterday and killed her that night, and it seemed that she had the idea of having an overnight night - of course, she was talking about "talking about how each other has been doing in the past two years". However, after Jiang Xian received Lin Fangruo's death notice, he wisely did not leave the other party overnight, and sent the other party back from the heart.
Lin Fangruo, Dong Xinjiu's favorability +1. It is currently around -99......
"Are you afraid today?" While helping to tie the tie, Lin Ruoxue asked. She wore a red evening dress today, with a sapphire beaded flower pinned to her chest. The hair was slightly permed, and the shoulder-length hair that hung down in front of the forehead became a big wave. A strand of burgundy at the end made her mature with a touch of charm.
"Afraid of what?" Although Lin Ruoxue's chest was almost close to him, Jiang Xian still tried not to squint, and said calmly: "Isn't it just to show your face?" Tell everyone that I found it? What is there to be nervous about? ......"
Before the words fell, Lin Ruoxue pulled her tie fiercely, and Jiang Xian didn't take a breath. Lin Ruoxue smiled and said, "I'm asking, are you afraid of lying in front of me?" ”
"Huh? Ha? What did you say, what did you lie? Look at what you say......"
"You went to Chang'an a few days ago?"
“……”
"You didn't call me?" Lin Ruoxue loosened her tie, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Jiang Xian faintly. Jiang Xian was obviously able to speak, but at this moment, he coughed dryly, explained to his mouth, and swallowed it again.
In the silence, a trace of ambiguous sweetness rose. Lin Ruoxue looked at it for a few seconds, retracted her gaze, and said lightly: "What are you afraid of?" I'm not a tigress, you have to report wherever you go. ”
"You have your freedom, do I still want to hold you?"
The last few words were obviously raised, and the woman's anger came so without warning, she was not angry when she said it, but she was angry from her heart when she finished speaking.
She was angry not that Jiang Xian didn't say hello, but that she didn't give herself a reason.
The people who waited in line for this girl were able to line up from the bell tower to West Street! What's wrong with not being worthy of you? As for avoiding snakes and scorpions? Can't get through the door? Friends don't count, right?
With a snort, she turned and left. Jiang Xian instinctively grabbed her wrist: "Actually, I ......"
"Forget it." With her back to him, Lin Ruoxue raised her snow-white wrist, gently straightened her hair, and said calmly: "This girl is magnanimous and forgives you once." This time in the dungeon, you have earned enough money, and the curse has been lifted, right? After a while...... Let's settle the score. ”
Wait until the old lady finds all your dens!
If you eat it, you want to run, where is such a good thing? Wasn't it very smooth to pick up the old lady's clothes back then? Do you dare to do it now?
She turned her head and hooked the corners of her mouth, like a beautiful sideways portrait. pinched Jiang Xian's face, like a blooming rose, and slowly walked out.
Jiang Xian let out a long sigh of relief, and Ling Xiaozi sneakily walked out of the rear curtain and cast an admiring gaze: "Awesome, you dare to touch the hearts of those two old monsters, this kind of good thing...... Be sure to avoid me in the future! ”
He walked out quickly, Jiang Xian sighed, and cursed secretly: "This fucking ......"
He also walked out.
This is the auction hall on the first floor of Shenzhou, and it is the largest "Four Seas" hall, which is already overcrowded at this moment.
Journalists from all walks of life, company staff, could not get the invitation letter and waited anxiously for their peers not far away...... Everyone looked at the gate expectantly, longing for it to open like the gates of heaven. However, their expectations are not destined to bear fruit.
The big red carpet, the flashing camera array, these are the things that traffic needs, and the real high-level has long since entered the auction hall from other aisles - they don't need these bells and whistles at all, they themselves are the top traffic.
………………………………………
The Four Seas Hall, at this moment, has long been a gathering of people.
Most of them are faces that can only be seen on various channels, some older and some young. Every high-end party is a place to deepen their "feelings" for each other, and no one will let go. Today, however, there are some surprises.
The layout of the Four Seas Room has undergone some changes, and below it are more than 50 solid wood chairs, ergonomically built. In front of him was an antique desk and computer – all of which were meant to be, but on the main stage and on both sides of the table were now walls of glass with treasures on display.
A white woman in a sapphire blue evening gown, with a demure hairstyle, was standing in front of a glass wall. The champagne in her hand swayed slightly, but her eyes were fixed on what was in front of her.
It was a Qin Terracotta Army, but unlike the Qin Terracotta Warriors at auction, this Qin Terracotta Warrior ...... It's a chariot warrior! The terracotta warriors on it are also completely different from ordinary terracotta warriors!
From costumes to weapons, they are undoubtedly much more sophisticated. The look on his face was not angry, and the flag behind the carriage was vivid, like a strong wind blowing. After watching for more than ten minutes, she stood up regretfully.
"Ms. Andrea." Song Yunshen's voice sounded from the side: "Is the queen interested in it?" ”
"Of course...... No, very interested! Andrea came back to her senses and smiled slightly: "Mr. Song, good evening." Allow me to convey the Queen's thanks. ”
"It's an honor."
Andrea sighed: "It's a pity, why not auction this terracotta warrior?" The Queen had been expecting a real terracotta statue for too long. If you auction this one, the value created can be multiplied several times. ”
Song Yunshen smiled and sighed: "It's not for me to decide. Moreover, the Qin Terracotta Warriors, or the well-preserved chrome Terracotta Warriors auction, will only have this time, this is the first and last time. You know, it's not the monetary value that we care about. ”
I believe you're a ghost!
Oops, the old man is very bad!
Andrea scolded in her heart, still smiling on her face: "I can't wait, how long will it take to start?" ”
"I can't wait for all of you." Song Yunshen gently touched the glass: "In the last ten minutes, I will also invite Ms. Andrea to sit down." ”
Brush Brush Brush ...... As soon as he finished speaking, the lights of the whole audience came on. Originally, the place was lit up in a dark blue color. It makes the tripods, bells, terracotta warriors and other objects in the glass wall appear more psychedelic and more historical. But as the lights turned on, all the rich people who stopped in front of the glass wall returned to their places.
There were two seats in each position, and most of the wealthy brought their assistants with them, who were responsible for holding cards and counting assets. There were hundreds of people, including Saudi oil tycoons and IT trendsetters, all of whom looked at them with forbearance in their eyes.
The melodious music sounded, and Song Yunshen walked to the center of the main stage and bowed slightly to all the rich people below. He smiled: "Welcome to Shenzhou, today, here, there will be an unprecedented auction!" It will become the Everest in auction history. Next, I would like to invite the explorers of the First Emperor's Underground Palace, Mr. Jiang Xianjiang. ”
There was a lot of applause. After the curtain, Jiang Xian took a deep breath, and then walked out solemnly and bowed slightly to the audience.
"Distinguished guests, good evening. I'm Jiang Xian, the exploration team leader of Shenzhou Team 3. He smiled and said, "Today, I will be the guest of honor, assisting the auctioneer to explain to you the preciousness of each item and the position it originally held in the dungeon. ”
The applause lasted for a full ten seconds. Finally it slowly subsided. The auctioneer walked up solemnly, and he bowed deeply in a crisp suit. Calmly walked to the auction table and said very clearly: "Now, the auction has officially begun. ”
If the sea before the storm, the scene calmed down instantly.
You don't need too many cutscenes, and you don't have to set the mood. Everyone present knows how precious this auction is. From the moment the auction was announced, Akitada Saito, who was in the third row, opened his yellow eyes, and his old eyes were full of ambition.
Andrea, in the first row, had already put the champagne aside, and her hair was tied up, like a Valkyrie ready to step into battle.
Mr. Ma in the second row had a smile on his face, and on the list of lots in his hand, his thumb was just pressed on the place where the lamp of Changxin Palace was placed.
The sudden silence, even if the auctioneer was already the most experienced auctioneer in Shenzhou, his heart sped up a few beats, and he said loudly to meet the blazing eyes below: "Below, is the first treasure: a pair of gold-inlaid seven treasure jade ruyi!" ”
A glass case was slowly lifted out by the staff. And inside, there are two golden ruyi.
Pure gold throughout, it is set with seven precious stones in the shape of seven stars: ruby, coral, sapphire, opal, jadeite...... Jiang Xian said slowly: "The Mo family is one of the oldest schools in China, and during the Qin Shi Huang period, the Mo family disappeared in large numbers. After investigation, almost all of them were moved to the local palace to take up various positions. ”
"And the head of the Mo family is called the giant son. This Ruyi was found at the place where the eighth generation of the Mo family's giant Liuxuanzi committed suicide. It is the thing that Qin Shi Huang rewarded the six Xuanzi, and the craftsmanship is fine, representing the top technology more than 2,400 years ago! And the death of the six Xuanzi was treated as a treasure and chose to die with it. ”
"Ruyi, in China, is a good heart, symbolizing auspiciousness. This is one of the longest, most well-preserved, and most exquisitely crafted furnishings from modern times. ”
He paused appropriately, and the auctioneer immediately said, "The starting price is $50,000." Now, please place your bids. ”
