Chapter 272: Underground Auction
Chapter 272: Underground Auction
The thaumaturgy of ascension is the first true skill of applying qi luck in the "Heavenly Fortune Dao Canon". www.biquge.info It is the most basic method of connecting the past and the next in the entire "Heavenly Fortune Dao Canon", and without the ascension technique, almost all the qi luck Dao methods and supernatural powers cannot be used. It is the driver of the Qi Luck Dao Method.
The luck stored in the Fortune Pagoda is losing at a rate of 36,000 points per second.
Yang Shiyun used the power of the ascension technique, followed his hunch, and pursued the truth of the opportunity or a little hint with ninety percent of his consciousness.
"This underground auction is organized by some antique dealers who buy and sell objects from different sources or who are not in a good place. Most of them are goods from the inverted bucket, and there are quite a lot of opportunities to find good things, of course, it is not impossible to get an eye. The last time I auctioned a piece of Song Dynasty white porcelain at the auction, countless people couldn't see the white porcelain at the beginning, only I made up my mind to buy it, only spent 300,000 yuan, but after careful appraisal, it was found to be genuine, and the value instantly increased more than ten times!" Chen Liping said proudly, although three million is nothing in his eyes, but playing collecting, the sense of accomplishment of picking up leaks is not something that can be measured by the value of the item.
The remaining layer of consciousness was expressed in chatting with Chen Liping: "That's a big leak, this auction is really going to take a good look." ”
Chen Liping listened to Yang Shiyun's words, and couldn't help but be very useful, you must know that he has been in the collection circle for so many years, and he has not picked up a few leaks in total, and every time he picks up leaks, he is proud.
"That's easy, I'll take you to the auction tonight, but there is a deposit of two million in cash there, so you'd better call the bank now and let them prepare in time." Chen Liping patted his chest and agreed. Originally, he was qualified to introduce people to the past, and Yang Shiyun was not a policeman, he was still in the same circle, and the most important thing was that Yang Shiyun was also rich.
"Understood. Yang Shiyun glanced at Ji Qing, Ji Qing nodded, and immediately called the bank.
"Let's go, I'll treat you at noon, go to the Chongming Club to have a good meal, and I'll treat it as if I was to pick up the seal and wash the dust for you. "Chen Liping lives in the capital, and the Chen family is also a high-ranking family in the capital, a first-class family.
Chen Liping not only likes to collect, but also likes jade, and the collecting industry itself includes jade collection.
"Okay!" Yang Shiyun responded without hesitation.
Yang Shiyun's ascension technique vaguely told Yang Shiyun that his fate was probably about to fall on this Chen Liping.
Just such a vague answer consumed Yang Shiyun's luck of 100,000 yuan.
The unpredictable nature of the sky is evident from this.
After eating at noon, Yang Shiyun withdrew five million cash from the bank, packed it in a black leather box, and left the bank under the escort of the bank's deputy manager.
In the evening, Yang Shiyun took Ji Qing and Chen Liping to meet, and under his leadership, came to the auction site.
The strange thing is that this kind of underground auction will be arranged in a five-star hotel in an open and honest manner, which is simply too subversive of Yang Shiyun's imagination.
"Mr. Chen, is this really here?" asked Yang Shiyun softly.
"Hahaha...... Brother, we were invited here to admire the art. What's not to be above board?" Chen Liping reminded pointedly.
When Yang Shiyun heard this, he laughed, it does make sense, strictly speaking, antiques are also works of art.
Ji Qing has seen it for a long time, and originally thought that the underground auction was like an underground party joint. I didn't expect it to be like this.
Chen Liping brought a young man, who should be a secretary, carrying a black leather suitcase, following behind, without squinting or saying a word.
However, Yang Shiyun still felt a strong aura from him, this is a practitioner.
"Let's go, Brother Yang. Chen Liping took out an invitation card from his pocket and walked into the hotel with Yang Shiyun.
A hotel waiter skillfully took the invitation, looked at it carefully, and said respectfully: "Mr. Chen, please go this way, I wonder if this gentleman has an invitation?"
"He's a friend I introduced, Mr. Yang, no problem. Chen Li replied plainly and seriously.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Yang, please come with me. When the waiter heard Chen Liping come forward to guarantee, he naturally had no opinion.
Led by the waiter, the group came to the auction hall.
At this moment, dozens of people have arrived in the hall.
Everyone sat quietly in their seats, chatting quietly with the Tibetan friends next to them.
"Mr. Chen, I knew that you would definitely come. ”
"Mr. Li is here, how can the little brother not come, I heard that there will be a lot of fine products in this auction. ”
"When the time comes, I hope that Mr. Chen's subordinates will show mercy. ”
............
After some greetings, Chen Liping and Yang Shiyun sat down in their seats.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the auction officially began.
The auctioneer walked up, and although it was an underground auction, the presiding officer of the auction still invited a specialized auctioneer. It can be seen that such an auction is not the kind of underground auction as imagined.
The organizer should also be a powerful and influential figure in the circle, definitely not like the rough person Yang Shiyun imagined.
However, this also makes sense, only this kind of high-end underground auction can allow these billionaires to come with peace of mind without bringing too many bodyguards to swagger.
If you go to an underground auction that doesn't know the details, it will definitely not be as simple as bringing a follower. At least two or three big men will be brought as bodyguards.
Look at the scene again, most of the CEOs are accompanied by beautiful secretaries and lovers. Of course, there are also people like forensic experts around you.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm glad that you're all here for this art auction. Without further ado, let's get the first piece of art. The auctioneer spoke.
"This lot is a large bowl of blue and white peony entwined with branches, according to the rules, interested parties can come forward to identify. The auctioneer spoke.
This kind of underground auction naturally does not guarantee that every thing auctioned is genuine, and the origin of these things is a little unclear, and it is certain that most of them are inverted. There is truth and falsehood in it, which is already a tacit thing.
Many CEOs surrounded the appraisal with appraisal experts.
Everyone gathered around this antique to exchange and appreciate, not to mention, there is really a bit of art appreciation.
Yang Shiyun also came up, he didn't come up to buy this antique, but to steal the luck of the people on it.
Yang Shiyun absorbed 150,000 luck from this antique, and this exquisitely shaped blue and white bowl is obviously genuine.
Yang Shiyun quickly retreated.
Chen Liping opened his mouth and asked, "How is the thing?"
"It should be genuine, in good condition, if the price is not high, it is worth collecting, but I am not very interested in it. ”
Chen Liping shook his head noncommittally.
Fifteen minutes later, Yang Shiyun was still looking through the auction list, because it was an underground auction, so there were no photos of the lots, on-site verification, on-site auction.
"Okay, everyone's appreciation is almost over, and now the auction has officially begun. The reserve price of this Ming blue and white peony bowl is 650,000 yuan, and the minimum asking price must not be less than 5,000 yuan. The auctioneer exclaimed.
"Six hundred and sixty thousand!"
"Sixty-five thousand!"
"Six hundred and seventy thousand!"
............
There were seven or eight competitors in the auction.
Yang Shiyun's research on antiques is not too deep, but he is also a newcomer to this circle, and he usually pays some attention to it, such a genuine tangled peony bowl in good condition is worth at least six or seven million, and he didn't expect that here, its auction price is so low.
However, this is also normal, the origin of these things is mysterious, otherwise it would be sent directly to a regular auction house, why bother holding such an auction here?
Didn't the CEOs who came to participate in the underground auction also covet the cheap things here?
Anyway, most of these CEOs buy things in their own collection room as decorations, for friends and business partners to enjoy, and also have the meaning of investment and financial management in it. Cheap genuine products are naturally the best.
In the end, this precious Ming blue and white peony bowl was auctioned for 1.02 million yuan.
Such a price is six or seven times lower than that of a regular auction house, which is simply a double profit. It's a pity that this item doesn't see the light of day immediately even if you get it, you can keep it at home and look at it, but if you want to sell it, you will definitely have trouble.
And because it is a cash transaction, everyone has a limited amount of cash, so it is natural to do what they can, and it is impossible to press all the cash for such a big thing, in case there is something pleasant in the back, wouldn't you just be able to watch?
Therefore, buyers who don't particularly like big bowls will not raise the price too much, and everyone has a tacit understanding in it, raising the price of each other, isn't that a trust for the auction organizer?
The next few lots were sold off without a hitch.
In the blink of an eye, two hours passed.
The auction was suspended, and the organizers prepared a rich late night snack for each guest.
Yang Shiyun and Ji Qing asked while eating: "Brother Chen, why doesn't the organizer show all the lots in advance for everyone to appraise, you have to appraise on the spot, auction on the spot, it's too much of a waste of time." It took two hours to sell seven things. ”
"Brother, if you think about it carefully, if they are all genuine, you are naturally not afraid of everyone's careful appraisal, but this kind of underground auction will not guarantee that everything is genuine, so ......" Chen Liping didn't continue halfway through his words.
Yang Shiyun and Ji Qing glanced at each other, and suddenly understood, I see, the logic is very easy to understand. (To be continued.) )
