Chapter 33: Meteorite Pen Inkstone

Bailan International Auction House, located on the ninth floor of Bailan International Jewelry City, occupies a huge area of an entire floor.

The auction house is said to be owned by a large international consortium, and in addition to the two auction halls, one large and one small, the entire nine floors are also used as commercial offices for some financial consulting and investment departments.

The auction at 9 o'clock in the morning was obviously not small, and it was arranged to be held in the larger Heilan auction hall.

Just after eight o'clock, there were already some guests who participated in the auction in twos and threes, Zhou Xiaoya met Sun Yuting when he was downstairs, the two went upstairs together, and after entering the auction hall, they found a random place in a corner on the left and sat down.

There were more than 300 seats in the entire auction hall, and at 8:50 a.m., some auction house staff pushed a large mobile safe containing the auction items and placed it next to the auction cabinet at the top.

Two auctioneers walked up, and after all the preparations were completed, the auction officially began at nine o'clock.

The two auctioneers, a man and a woman, the man is a middle-aged uncle, and the woman is a young **, who looks like she is twenty-seven or eighteen years old.

However, the two objects in Zhou Xiaoya's hands that participated in the auction were sold by her and regarded as the mysterious lot of the finale.

"Okay, now let me introduce you to the first lot - the top Laokeng glass jade gold ring double color jade Guanyin!"

As the auctioneer's voice sounded, the staff next to him took out a small box from the cabinet, opened it, and carefully placed it on the auction cabinet.

The box is covered with pure black velvet cushions, and a two-finger-sized Guanyin jade jade pendant quietly comes into everyone's sight.

"This is a top glass jade jade Guanyin from the old pit in Myanmar, you can see that Guanyin is wearing an emerald green robe, a very old, good goods do not need too many words to describe, it should be pointed out that Guanyin's cheeks are very translucent, and the back of the head is surrounded by a circle of pale golden Buddha light, this lot is like a pure glass, and the jade is bright and transparent. And it is also a double-colored glass species, with a starting price of 200,000 yuan, and a minimum price increase of 5,000 each time, and the auction will start now!"

......

The first lot at the beginning was a double-colored old pit glass, and the whole auction scene immediately caused a lot of sensation.

Among the jadeite, although the double color is more common, the glass species, even the treasures of the old pit glass species are not a few, but this kind of double color old pit glass species is really rare.

From this point of view alone, the quality of the lots in this auction must definitely not be low.

Encountering this kind of treasure, it is impossible for people who really like jadeite not to be moved, and the shouting price soon sounded one after another, and the original starting price of 200,000 yuan was quickly pushed up, and in less than ten minutes, it has doubled to 430,000. It caused some photographers to be amazed.

"Cut, what's the big deal, it's just a double-colored glass, and it's not colorful!"

Seeing that the first lot was so sought after, Sun Yuting, who was sitting next to Zhou Xiaoya, seemed a little unhappy, and the words in her mouth were sour with a little indifference.

"Colorful, the ice seed glutinous seed is almost the same, is there such a thing in the old pit glass seed?"

A young man sitting not far from the right frowned when he heard this, turned his head to look this way, and muttered to himself with a faint disdain: "Why have young people nowadays become so frivolous, they don't know how to pretend to understand!"

"Hey, who do you say doesn't know how to pretend to understand?"

When Sun Yuting heard this, she immediately looked like a cat with her tail stepped on, almost didn't jump up directly, and glared angrily.

Although the whispering voice of the two was not loud, it also made some people around listen to it, or felt that what the young man said was indeed reasonable, and many people looked at Sun Yuting and covered their mouths and chuckled.

The young man snorted even more coldly, glanced at Sun Yuting, but didn't pay attention to it.

Suddenly, she was so contemptuous that Sun Yuting was so angry that she almost went violent, and she stretched out her right hand and twisted it fiercely on Zhou Xiaoya's thigh.

"Ouch, I provoked you?"

Zhou Xiao's toothache was so painful that he gasped, but he didn't dare to provoke the arrogant and unreasonable problem girl beside him, and suddenly looked at the young man on the right dissatisfied, his face full of resentment.

The little girl obviously remembered the young man's grudge earlier, pouting and turning her head from time to time, probably thinking about how to avenge the arrow just now.

Soon, the opportunity finally came.

After a series of seven or eight jewelry lots were auctioned, the ninth piece was actually brought out with a strange ancient artifact.

"This lot is a stone inkstone from the Ming Dynasty Apocalypse, beautifully carved, and most importantly, it is said that the stone used to carve this pen inkstone is a small meteorite...... Of course, this is just a rumor, and it has not been verified! The starting price is 80,000 yuan, and the price will be increased by 2,000 each time!"

This time, it was the young female auctioneer with sharp teeth who was the main auctioneer, but she was obviously not very optimistic about this lot, and Liao Liao's introduction seemed to be a little coping.

A stone pen inkstone, although some years, is the Ming Dynasty apocalypse of the year, but not from the hands of a famous artist, I have to say, the reserve price of 80,000 is really set a little high.

The bidders present did not seem to be very interested, only two or three people raised the signs in their hands, and the sound of shouting prices was sparse, and they were all only two thousand at a time.

The young man sitting on the right side of Zhou Xiaoya and the others suddenly raised the sign in his hand for some reason, after listening to the whispers of an old man beside him.

"One hundred thousand!"

shouted the price from 86,000 to 100,000 in one breath, and the object was just a stone inkstone that was not from a famous artist. The young man's generosity immediately caused a small commotion in the auction hall.

"One hundred thousand!"

Before everyone could react, a new shout was generated almost instantly, and the voice also came from Zhou Xiaoya's side, which was Sun Yuting's girl.

"Hmph, sick! 150,000!"

The young man snorted coldly, turned his head and glared at Sun Yuting, and raised the price lightly.

"One hundred and sixty thousand!"

Sun Yuting did not show weakness, raised her hand and raised the sign in her hand, turned her head to look at the young man, with a look of revenge and hatred!

The young man doesn't know why, obviously he is determined to get this stone pen inkstone, Sun Yuting, this girl obviously sees this, every time people shout the price, she immediately raises her hand to raise the card, the price increase is not much, each time it is only 10,000, but so four or five times in a row, when the price of the pen inkstone is pushed to 460,000, the young man's whole face, finally completely blackened.

A small stone inkstone, the original reserve price of 80,000 yuan, in the eyes of everyone, has already seemed a little too high, but at this moment, in less than ten minutes, it was dramatically pushed to 460,000, and the entire auction hall has already become a sensation.

However, everyone present was obviously a human spirit. The eyes converged on the faces of Sun Yuting and the young man, and almost everyone saw the cattiness.

Where is this auction? It's obviously vindictive!

Some people shook their heads with a wry smile, although they still watched with interest, but they had already directly ignored the stone inkstone on the auction counter.

"A million!"

As young people raised their cards again, the stone inkstone was pushed to a new sky-high price.

The whole auction was completely in an uproar.

Zhou Xiaoya's heart suddenly moved, and he turned his head to look at the young man in surprise.

Although this person is not very old, it is estimated that he is only twenty-three or fourteen years old, but he is dignified in appearance, and his words and deeds are extremely calm, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like the kind of guy who will ignore a qiē for the sake of vindictiveness.

Could it be that this stone inkstone is really so strange, and it is worth it for him to get it at all costs?

Muttering to himself in his heart, Zhou Xiaoya quickly noticed the old man beside the young man.

The old man was wearing a Tang costume and looked quite elegant, but the temples on the upper side of this person's ears bulged high, and at first glance it felt a little extraordinary.

What's even more strange is that since this inkstone was taken out, the old man's eyes have been staring closely, and even the young man and Sun Yuting next to him seem to be deaf to the fierce shouting of the price one after another. In his eyes, there was a faint hint of calmness to examine the things in his bag.

It seems that if nothing else, this stone inkstone is probably the thing that this old man has taken a fancy to.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhou Xiaoya immediately became interested. Turning his head to look at the stone inkstone on the auction cabinet in front of him, he really saw a clue when he held his breath and stared.

This inkstone did not look eye-catching, but at this moment, Zhou Xiaoya concentrated on it, mobilized some spiritual power, and soon found that the body of the inkstone seemed to be surrounded by a faint layer of heaven and earth spiritual power.

This layer of heaven and earth spiritual power is naturally invisible to the naked eye of ordinary people, even if Zhou Xiaoya himself has entered the path of cultivation, he also has some of this spiritual power in his body, if he doesn't concentrate on it, most of them will not be able to detect it.

The discovery immediately lifted his mind.

Can be surrounded by spiritual power, this inkstone is obviously an extraordinary thing, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is carved from meteorite, but how did the old man next to the young man see it?

Could it be that this old man can also sense the spiritual power between heaven and earth? If this is the case, what does this inkstone represent behind it? It is worth it that he must get it in his hands at such a cost?

A series of questions surfaced in his heart, and Zhou Xiaoya immediately had a strong curiosity about this inkstone.

"Two million!"

At this moment, the young man on the right gritted his teeth and once again pushed the price to a new high......
