Chapter 53: Wealthy

Bryant was silent, not because he was short of money, but because he felt worthless. A porcelain bowl like this, 500 million is already very expensive, and 760 million can't be worth it!

"Mr. Bryant?" the moderator asked politely.

Bryant didn't answer, but sat back in his seat.

The host felt a little embarrassed, so he picked up the hammer and said: "760 million for the first time, 760 million for the second time, 760 million for the second time, 760 million ......"

"Eight hundred million!" Bryant, who had already sat down, spit out two words softly, making the scene enter another high tide.

This tea bowl was sold for an unprecedented amount of 800 million! No one would have thought that it was worth such a sky-high price!

Ni Liqun sat down. He sat on four real estate projects and borrowed another 200 million to get together 800 million in cash, and now that Bryant called this price, he couldn't afford to follow anymore.

The host saw Ni Liqun shaking his hand gently, and he had already guessed the result. He said in a loud voice: "800 million for the first time, 800 million for the second time, 800 million for the third time!" Congratulations to Mr. Bryant of the United States for taking down all four tea bowls of this set of exquisite Ru porcelain!"

There was a round of applause. Although everyone is a little disgusted with the Americans buying antiques from the motherland, they deserve applause when they pay for it.

Among the applauders, Li Ting applauded the loudest, and she said in a very happy tone: "We have another 800 million...... Oops, tax deduction and commission, another 200 million is gone......"

The host said happily: "Haha, the four tea bowls belong to Mr. Bryant, and the next thing is the last exhibit of our exhibition, that is, the soul component of the tea set just now - the teapot!"

"This teapot is full of light azure glaze inside and out, the glaze has no open piece, the glaze is smooth and clean, and the contrast between shades is natural, which can be called a masterpiece in Ru porcelain. Although its body is not painted like the phoenix bottle just now, its value is not below that of a single phoenix bottle. Like the phoenix bottle, we start at the reserve price of 100 million!"

"Five hundred million!" Mr. Li, who was crooked, directly showed his hole cards.

Ni Liqun saw Bryant, who was on the other side of the network, and shouted: "Eight hundred million!"

"Oh, that's 800 million!" exclaimed from the audience.

Just after three bids, it reached 600 million, which is amazing enough, and now it's good, two bids are 800 million!

"Eight hundred and ten million!" Bryant said unhurriedly.

The teapot is the soul component of this set of tea sets, and he bought all four bowls, can he not buy a pot? Besides, he can buy a bowl for 800 million yuan, and he will naturally not spend less on buying a pot.

There was silence because the price was too high. Except for Ni Liqun, who raised 800 million in cash everywhere, the others didn't have so much money at all!

"Alas, it seems that I can only watch this teapot return to the Yankees!" Ni Liqun sighed.

He doesn't want to admit defeat, how can he not have more money!

"Eighty-twenty million!" a voice called out over the phone.

Bryant was stunned, then laughed again, because he could tell that the voice was Italy's Amidio.

When Amidio auctioned the porcelain vase, Bryant raised the price once, so that the price broke the record, and it seems that Amidio also wanted to return the color. This guy is a grudge-bearer.

But it doesn't matter, this guy will just lift it once at most and join in the fun, and Bryant doesn't care about one or two hundred million or twenty million.

"Eighty-thirty million!" Bryant said.

This price obviously set a new record for Chinese antiques, and no one could respond to such a sky-high price for a long time.

The host smiled: "It seems that this teapot will belong to our Mr. Bryant again, 830 million for the first time, ......"

"Old Ni, we met again, you don't seem to have bought anything today?" Mr. Li, who came from Wanwan, greeted Ni Liqun.

The two of them have nothing to do with each other in business, but they have met many times at antique fairs and are acquaintances.

"Alas, I just want to buy a piece of Ru porcelain, but unfortunately I don't have the financial resources!" Ni Liqun sighed, "I really don't want to see the quintessence of my country fall into the hands of Americans!"

"Me too!" Although Mr. Li is in the bend, he is concerned about the motherland, "I think the two of us can cooperate, I brought 500 million over, as long as the price does not exceed 1 billion, we can win it hand in hand!"

"Really?" Ni Liqun's eyes flashed with a strange look.

"Hehe, I can put the things there for you first, but you have to show them to me when I want to see them!" Mr. Li smiled.

"A word is a certainty!" Ni Liqun said.

"830 million third ......"

At the moment when the host was about to drop the hammer, Ni Liqun had already finished discussing with Mr. Li, raised his hand and said, "Nine hundred million!"

"Mr. Ni's bid has reached 900 million!" the host became excited.

"900 million, it's too good, today's record is higher than one!"

"Yes, it's really unexpected, unexpected!"

When the audience was boiling, Bryant in front of the American camera gently lit a cigarette and took two puffs before saying, "Nine hundred and thirty million!"

"Nine hundred and thirty million!"

Ni Liqun said: "Nine hundred and fifty million!"

"Wow, 950 million!"

Bryant threw the cigarette in the ashtray and snuffed it out with his hand, "Nine hundred and eighty million!"

"980 million, I don't know if I can reach 1 billion today, if I can reach 1 billion, it will be an astronomical figure of ten figures, and it will be absolutely difficult to surpass!"

"Yes, can it reach a billion? I can't imagine that it can be sold at this price!"

Ni Liqun and Mr. Li glanced at each other, and then nodded together. Ni Liqun shouted: "Billion!"

"It's really a billion!"

No one could have imagined that the last set of tea sets would create such an incredible myth!

One billion, a single auction item has been auctioned for a billion!

This is a milestone record of Chinese antiques, and it will certainly not be surpassed for a long time to come!

"Eleven billion!"

Bryant is really on fire, he has already bought all the tea bowls, no matter what, he will not let the teapot fall into the hands of others!

To collect it is to have a full set, and he is an extreme perfectionist!

"Li Changhe, can we call it again?" asked Ni Liqun.

"Alas, Lao Ni, I only have 500 million liquidity now, and I can't get any more. Mr. Li, whose name was Li Changhe, shook his head.

Ni Liqun said: "I'm still a little, do you see if I can add it, let's call a 1.2 billion?"

Li Changhe thought for a while and said, "Okay, then call it 1.2 billion, how about I raise money to pay you back then?"

Ni Liqun smiled: "No, no, didn't you say that the items are put here for me, I should give more money!"

Li Changhe said: "Let's talk about the specific problem then, let's ask for the price first!"

"Okay!" Ni Liqun slapped his thigh and said arrogantly: "1.2 billion!"

"Wow, Mr. Ni's bid has reached 1.2 billion! It seems that this teapot is Mr. Ni's in the end, which is really amazing!"

The host danced with a happy expression on his face. 1.2 billion, what kind of number is this, think about the teapot that is placed is worth 1.2 billion, he doesn't even dare to touch it again!

It's so precious!

Bryant heard the words of the host translated by the secretary, and his face suddenly became extremely gloomy. What he Bryant wanted to get his hands on, no one could snatch him yet!

After taking a sip of water, he shouted, "1.25 billion!"

"Wow, 1.25 billion!"

Everyone felt a gold star in front of them. This price is getting more and more outrageous, and it is completely beyond the common sense of everyone!

1.25 billion, what a sky-high price!

Seeing this, Mr. Ni laughed three times: "Lao Li, it seems that I want to press all my belongings, I don't steam steamed buns, I must do my best to keep the treasures in China!"

"I support you!" Li Changhe nodded.

"Come on, grandpa!"

Mr. Ni came this time with a granddaughter. The little girl is also in high school, and her appearance is exceptionally delicate. Seeing that the two old grandfathers pressed all their net worth, she waved her slender hands to cheer for the two.

"1.3 billion!" Ni Liqun shouted.
