Chapter 412: Smashing the Field?
"Fifteen hundred taels! Champion Hou bid 1,500 taels! It is worthy of being a champion Hou, and he has courage! It seems that tonight's rare treasure luminous cup will belong to the champion Hou. The host Xu Zhongtian made a surprised expression, which brought the atmosphere to the extreme.
"Is there anything else? Are there any bids? One thousand five hundred taels once, one thousand five hundred taels for the second time...... Okay, then I declare that this luminous cup belongs to ......"
"Wait a minute, one thousand six hundred taels!" It's still the person who competed just now.
"One thousand sixteen, one thousand six hundred taels!" Xu Zhongtian said: "Everyone, everyone! I have been hosting this auction for more than ten years, and I have never seen such fierce competition for the first lot. ”
Li Daozong was so angry that he got up, "Two thousand taels, this king wants to see it, and he still dares to fight?" ”
Li Junxian was not calm, "Lord Wang, think twice!" Your Majesty, you see ......"
Li Er opened his mouth and said: "Forget it, Chengfan, a cup is just two thousand taels, it's not worth it." ”
Li Daozong snorted coldly, "The other party only increases the price by one hundred taels every time, which is obviously deliberately aimed at us, this is no longer a cup matter." I want to see if there are any other characters in Chang'an City, who dare to be so wealthy. Jun Xian, beat the drum, call the price! ”
Soon, Xu Zhongtian's exclamation recurred, and the audience was excited one after another, two thousand taels to buy a wine glass? Generous, worthy of the champion!
"Ahem, Uncle Huang, it looks like he's targeting me. You can't be so angry, can you? Xiao Rui reminded.
Forehead......
Li Daozong was stunned for a moment, his old face turned red, and he said in his heart, why didn't you say it earlier? I forgot about it, and thought I was helping the emperor get ahead.
"It's the same thing, it's all family!" Hard-headed, Li Daozong said a scene.
Xiao Rui suddenly felt a little embarrassed, thinking if he should tell him the truth?
"Two thousand taels for a wine glass? Hehe, this Hou Ye is really spending money. It's okay to let him squander it first, and when the "Shangshu" is auctioned later, maybe his money will not be enough, then our chances of winning will be greater. Kong Yingda stroked his beard and smiled.
Yan Shigu shook his head and said: "Not necessarily, the champion Hou is known as a rich country, and only two thousand taels is just a drop in the bucket for him." ”
……
Xu Zhongtian shouted: "Hou Ye is worthy of being the first person in the world, it seems that I will add a sentence in the future, the number one person in the world who loves wine is also Hou Ye!" Two thousand taels, there shouldn't be anything higher than this price, right? ”
This product is also sleek, and the last sentence is clearly reminding others that it is enough to stop, don't provoke the champion Hou too much, that is a famous evil star.
The corners of Wang Jishan's mouth curled slightly, and he waved his hand, signaling that his entourage could retreat.
The attendant smiled and shouted towards the auction table: "Hou Ye is incomparably brave, and if you bow to the wind in Xiagan, this luminous cup will be given to Hou Ye." ”
Color!
Countless spectators cheered and applauded, and the shopkeeper of the auction hall smiled even more, saying that this first lot was sold at a high price, and it was off to a good start, and today's auction will definitely be hot!
Xu Zhongtian hurriedly took the opportunity to make a decision, "Okay, two thousand taels!" This luminous cup is Hou Ye's, congratulations to Hou Ye! ”
Xiao Rui raised his wine glass, "Congratulations, Your Majesty!" ”
Li Er said to Li Daozong embarrassedly: "Cheng Fan, two thousand taels of a cup, it's too extravagant." ”
Xiao Rui quipped: "Uncle Huang's annual income seems to be only two thousand taels, father-in-law, or you should pay for it." ”
Forehead......
Li Er's face darkened, and he said in his heart that I wanted the glow-in-the-dark cup, but I didn't want to buy it for two thousand taels.
"Yes, this money is mine, I didn't bring any money when I went out today, boy, you help me put it on first."
Xiao Rui: ......
What about the liar, you come to the auction, you don't bring a penny, what is the auction?
Li Daozong waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's just a gift to Your Majesty, although the minister is not as rich as the champion Hou, but he can still afford two thousand taels." ”
Since this is the case, the people are no longer polite.
In the next auction, Xiao Rui almost kept shooting, like a novice who came to the auction for the first time, he was more curious about everything he saw, whether he wanted it or not, he shouted at everything.
In Xiao Rui's words, if you want to call more, if you don't want it, you can also help the auction house to call it and set off the atmosphere, otherwise, wouldn't it be embarrassing to auction first-class?
The crowd was speechless......
The people who participated in the auction were speechless, and said that the champion Hou came to sweep the goods today? Why does he fancy everything? Don't let us bid?
If that's the case, then why don't you auction it, and sell it directly to the champion Hou at a higher price in the background, let's make up the number?
The shopkeeper of the auction hall was also dumbfounded, don't be like this, Master Hou, you said okay to take care of my business, you will participate in everything, with your status and status, who dares to compete with you? Several items have been sold to you at low prices, and if this continues, we won't make money today, and if we don't get it, we will have to lose money and make money.
Lao Wang coughed lightly and said, "Master Hou, don't participate in it again and again, it's so scared that they don't dare to follow the bidding." Who are you? What haven't you seen? Why bother to grab some mundane things from these people? ”
Xiao Rui touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "Do I call a lot?" I think there are less than ten lots. ”
Li Junxian whispered: "Son, there are only twenty pieces in total." ”
Ahem......
Forget it, don't call it.
"By the way, that guy just now is the guy who grabbed the luminous cup with us, but if he asks for a price, don't let it go. I suspect he did it on purpose, and it is very likely that Wang Jishan's soul is weak. ”
"I'll send someone to find out." Li Junxian said.
Xiao Rui waved his hand to stop, "No, the opponent you guessed in this way is interesting." ”
Li Er asked, "Boy, you bought a bunch of miscellaneous items, do you bring enough money?" Don't affect the auction of the last "Shangshu". ”
Li Daozong replied: "Don't worry, the auction house does not require on-site payment, just take it within three days afterwards, after all, many large-scale transactions require carriages to pull silver, and no one can bring it with them." They are all people with status, and they are not afraid of default. ”
After Xiao Rui did not participate in the auction, the atmosphere in the auction room recovered a lot, and many people sighed, finally having a sense of participation. Especially the shopkeeper, rubbed his chest, fortunately, Hou Ye also left a way to live.
Kong Yingda and the others said regretfully: "Why don't you let him spend more?" That adds up to less than 30,000 taels. ”
Time passes quickly, and the best lot is today's finale, the ancient book "Shangshu"!
After a quarter of an hour of intermission, Xu Zhongtian went backstage to drink some tea, and then returned to the auction table with steady steps, ordering someone to carry up a quaint big wooden box.
Without his introduction, the audience was in an uproar, and many people were short of breath, and they involuntarily stood up, staring at the quaint wooden box.
"Yes, definitely, judging by the style and simplicity of the wooden box, it must be an antiquity!" Yan Shigu, who has studied antiques, said excitedly.
