Chapter 823: Two Women Fight
The auction is still going on.
Bai Song came to the auction mainly to understand the market of knives and experience the current market for katana.
The auction is full of good and varied lots, and it is not the only one that can really interest Bai Song.
With Bai Song's current status and financial resources, he doesn't need any luxury goods to show himself at all.
And the ancient auction does not match a modern soul, at least in the pricing of many goods, Bai Song does not feel realistic.
For example, some exquisite gold and silver ornaments are priced much higher than Bai Song's psychological expectations.
However, there was a ten-pound jade rough stone that made Bai Song feel that he had missed it.
The stone had been cut open, and the inside was turquoise, which was shocking enough for a person who didn't know much about jade.
Judging from Bai Song's cognition, it is not impossible for such a piece of jade to be sold for tens of millions of yuan in modern times after a thousand years, and it is only worth three hundred taels at the current auction, and no one bids.
So Bai Song bought it.
After buying the stone, Bai Song was still very happy, thinking that he had picked up a leak.
Later, when I thought about it, how could there be any leakage? Born in such an era, although jade is valuable, it is far from the level of luxury.
The price of a few hundred taels is also a market price.
Bai Song yawned, feeling more and more bored about this auction, but the katana that was the finale did not appear for a long time.
That knife was what Bai Song was looking forward to, and he was looking forward to what kind of expressions these guests would have when they saw the knife.
When Bai Song was secretly thinking about it, a picture of a lady attracted Lan Ting's attention.
The pictures of the ladies are very realistic, which is very rare in the popular freehand Zhenguan period.
The reason why it attracts Lanting is because the lady is a palace maid on the picture, and she looks a little similar to Lanting between her eyebrows and eyes.
Just one glance, Lan Ting was a little distracted.
Bai Song looked down, and then looked at the Lan Pavilion, and the starting price of this painting was only one thousand taels of silver.
Bai Song saw that Lan Ting liked it, and said softly: "One thousand five hundred taels." ”
Lan Ting was stunned for a moment, didn't react, and was about to shout the price when he found that someone had already bid two thousand taels.
"Two thousand five hundred taels."
Bai Song continued.
Lan Ting was not distracted, and immediately opened the window to bid.
The painting seems to have been very popular, and although it did not soar to 20,000 taels as the previous one, there were many bidders and the frequency was very fast.
In the blink of an eye, the price has reached 5,000 taels, and the trend has not stopped.
Bai Song estimated that it was not worth spending a few thousand silver in order to please a little girl, so he would no longer bid.
Bai Song's side bid several times in a row, which seemed to give some signals to the two VIP rooms opposite.
Zhang Yuhan and Shishi both expected that Bai Gongzi liked this picture of a lady.
Seeing that the price soared to 10,000 taels, Bai Song no longer bid, and Shishi took the lead in the final competition.
"Twenty thousand taels."
"Twenty thousand taels?!" The host was surprised again, "The thirteenth VIP bid 20,000 taels!" ”
Ooh!
There was a commotion in the crowd.
What the hell is going on today?
Calligraphy and paintings, which no one cares about on weekdays, why are they so sought-after today?
Previously, a work had been sold for a sky-high price of 20,000 taels, and now another painting was marked at 20,000 taels.
In the VIP room on the 14th, Prince Charming's sweat has already come out.
Twenty thousand taels!
It's just a painting, as far as it's concerned?
Zhang Yuhan was very annoyed, and said in his heart Who is the person next door, why do you keep robbing yourself?
Although this painting is good, it is also good, and it is not necessarily outstanding, so why do you just bite it?
But Zhang Yuhan obviously doesn't have Wang Yuming's weak mood, and it is not himself who pays anyway.
The key is that Young Master Wang confidently guaranteed that as long as Miss Zhang wanted to, even the stars in the sky could be plucked.
Now it's just a painting......
Zhang Yuhan looked back at Prince Charming, her eyes were burning, this was the first time she showed a trace of hope from her eyes, and it was no longer that cold emotion.
When Wang Yuming saw it, his heart was hot, this is the number one ice beauty among the official ladies in the capital!
is not only stunning, but also noble, and more importantly, no man has seen her spring breeze and snow.
And just now, a look of hope, a body of frost dissipated without a trace, just with this glance, Wang Yuming could not retreat.
"Twenty-one thousand taels."
Wang Yuming mustered up the courage to bid again.
After holding it for a long time, Wang Yuming increased the price by 1,000 taels.
In the next room, Shi Shi angrily plucked a golden hairpin with a hundred butterflies and flowers.
"Twenty-five thousand taels!"
Almost at the same time, the next room increased the price again.
"Hiss......" Wang Yuming took a breath of cool air, and said in his heart, who is the person next door? Is it so bold? Without a hint of hesitation, he looks determined to win.
Although Wang Yuming is the son of the richest merchant in Jiangnan, the expenditure of tens of thousands of taels of silver is not a small amount.
To be precise, tens of thousands of taels of silver are astronomical for him.
In Zhenguan, where copper coins are the main currency in circulation, even if it is one or two pieces of silver, not everyone can take it out.
On the contrary, Zhang Yuhan, a young lady who grew up in a greenhouse, has no concept of money by nature, and feels that everyone is very generous in this auction, more than 20,000 yuan sounds like a lot, but it is not so incredible.
So, Zhang Yuhan cast an expectant look again.
Wang Yuming was greatly encouraged again: "Twenty-six thousand taels." ”
"Thirty thousand taels!"
The host didn't react, and the one next door was bidding again.
This time, Shishi took off all the jewelry on her body.
For this painting, she blocked all her savings over the years.
Today's poetry has long since retreated into the background, but relying on some rewards received in the two years when she was popular, she became an invisible little rich woman early.
Although tens of thousands of taels of silver are a lot, if she wants to smash the pot and sell iron to make it up, she can still make it up.
The scene was lively, but I didn't expect a little-known lady picture to sell for today's highest price.
A painting of 30,000 taels is the first time in the past few decades, right?
Wang Mingyou, the chairman of the association, was very satisfied, stroked his beard and said to himself: "There are still many rich people in Chang'an City, and this kind of auction is so sought after, and it is more profitable than its own cloth village." ”
Wang Mingyou is estimating how much dividends he can get from this auction, but he doesn't know that he doesn't make enough money in this auction to make a fraction of what his son spends on picking up girls.
"Miss Zhang, the price of this painting is a bit too high, why don't we change it to another product?" Prince Charming had a bitter face, and his expression was full of "Miss, please let go".
Zhang Yuhan was unwilling, but she didn't want to persecute this son, so she whispered: "Since the son is weak, what about ...... Then forget it! Hey......"
After speaking, he didn't forget to sigh heavily, and his eyes were full of resentment.
