It didn't take long for the auction to begin.

Almost all the invited guests arrived, and the guests of the survival team also left the storage room and returned to the auction hall outside, looking for seats to sit down.

Pei Shen is still here, and he wants to work with the people of Shen's Auction House to take out the lot and bring it to the stage for the people below to visit.

Jian Xiao and her friends sat there, waiting for the opening.

Cao Yun was very nervous, and she even joked:

"I've seen auctions on TV."

"Those rich people raise signs at every turn, adding money is the same as adding vegetables, hundreds of thousands of millions, people who listen to it are shocked, and now they can finally see the live version."

"It's also the first time I've seen so many big guys." Zhou Xiyue said, "I don't know if I can make some contacts after a while." ”

She immediately retired from the circle and went back to inherit the family business, and everything she thought was considered by the company.

Qin Zhan and Liao Fanchen were quite interested in a few lots, and the two had a common topic and chatted endlessly.

As for Jian Xiao, she was bored, sitting on a chair and looking at the entire venue.

At this glance, I found a few acquaintances:

Ye Changqing and Zhao Shuya.

It's no wonder they will come here, the Zhao family is a nouveau riche and has no background, in order to avoid other wealthy families in the imperial capital from saying that they are mud legs, they often participate in such vassal and elegant activities.

It's as if they can improve their cultural literacy by buying a few more calligraphy and painting antiques.

The survival team did not participate in the auction, in order not to affect others, they sat in the corner, so they did not attract the attention of Ye Changqing and Zhao Shuya.

Soon, the auction began.

The auctioneer stood in the center of the stage, with a megaphone headset and an auction hammer in hand, and began the fixed process:

"First of all, I would like to invite our staff to send the first lot."

"It is from the early years of Yong'an of the Dayin Dynasty, the "Begonia Spring Rain Map" by Master Wang Chuanshui, and there is an inscription by Master Wang Chuanshui on it."

"As we all know, the Dayin Dynasty is about 1,300 years ago, and this "Begonia Spring Rain Map" has gone through thousands of years of time, through the long river of history, allowing us to witness the prosperity of that period of time."

"Its starting price is ......"

With the introduction of the auctioneer, the staff quickly took out the "Begonia Spring Rain Map".

Wearing gloves, they carefully unfolded the scroll, and the picture scroll, which had been preserved for thousands of years, was displayed in front of everyone's eyes through the big screen.

In the next second, someone raised their cards to bid.

Zhou Xiyue was still next to Cao Yun's popular science:

"Although Shen's auction house has only been in the auction business for more than ten years, they are well-known in China, but all auctions must be genuine."

"For each lot, when it enters Shen's Auction House, there will be 18 top appraisers who will take turns to appraise and jointly issue an appraisal certificate."

"Therefore, those who come here to participate in the auction can bid with confidence, and they don't have to worry about getting fakes at all, this is Shen's reputation and strength."

Jian Xiao listened to Zhou Xiyue's words and looked at her in some surprise.

Is it true that you won't get a fake?

But this painting ......

What she saw in the storage room before was clearly not this one, and the previous one was a proper and authentic handiwork, which could definitely pass the appraisal of the eighteen masters.

But this one, not necessarily.

She touched Qin Zhan next to her and asked:

"Brother Zhan, can you contact Mr. Pei?"

"What's wrong?" Qin Zhan asked.

"There's something wrong with that painting." Jian Xiao said, "It's not the same one we saw in the storage room, and I'm not sure if Mr. Pei knows about it." ”

If he knows, it is what he and Shen's Auction House are uniting and doing.

If you don't know, it is that the Shen family is stealing beams and changing pillars, deceiving at both ends, and Pei Shen is also a victim.

"Are you sure?" Qin Zhan was surprised.

"I'm sure." Jian Xiao nodded, "If Mr. Pei doesn't know, then I want to tell him in person where the mystery of this painting is." ”

When Qin Zhan heard this, he hurriedly summoned a waiter and asked him to call Pei Shen over.

Pei Shen was originally with the person in charge of Shen's auction house, and the two were chatting about follow-up cooperation between the two brothers, when he heard Qin Zhan shouting that he was over, he was a little surprised.

However, Pei Shen probably had a good relationship with Qin Zhan, and he immediately said to the person in charge:

"My friend is here to cheer, I'm afraid that there is something important to find me at this time, so I will say goodbye for a while, and we will talk about it in detail later."

"Okay, Mr. Pei go." The person in charge said, "When you come back, we will go together to pick up the second lot." ”
