"During the Zhengzhi period, a blue-and-white elephant ear vase in the Yuan Dynasty, with a phoenix wearing a peony!"

As soon as this introductory sentence was uttered, there were several exclamations from the audience!

"It turned out to be Yuan Qinghua! This is too rare!"

"Is the first one tonight such a high specification?!"

"Previously, Jiashide's head office abroad took pictures of the Yuan blue and white flower of Xiao Heyue chasing Han Xintu, and the transaction price was more than [-] million yuan!"

But Bai Shaoping was unmoved, because he knew that this is also a trick commonly used by auction houses. Usually, the first auction item will make some gimmicks to arouse everyone's interest and give some surprises to mobilize the atmosphere, but there must be something left to say. finished.

Sure enough, as Bai Shaoping expected, a female employee dressed in gorgeous clothes came onto the stage, holding an exquisite box in her hand. Liang Yinghai opened the box, picked up the Yuan blue and white phoenix wearing a peony bottle, and said: "Open the door to the generation The official kiln products, both the glaze and the embryo, are excellent, but the only fly in the ointment is that there is a crack on the side."

Liang Yinghai rotated the Fengchuan Peony Vase 180 degrees, and there was a very obvious crack on the back!

Although the cracks are not deep, the surface has been somewhat deglazed, which is a very cheap defect in porcelain.

At this moment, Xilou tugged at the corner of Bai Shaoping's clothes, and asked, "Brother Ping, what do you mean by opening the door?"

"Opening the door means that the characteristics of this antique are very distinctive. It can be seen at a glance that it is an old object, not a modern imitation. To the generation means that this object is a product of the era it is displayed in. Because some antiques, although they are also old Objects, but they are not actually from that era, there have been imitations in all dynasties.

For example, a craftsman in the Qing Dynasty imitated a Ming Dynasty-style porcelain. In the Qing Dynasty at that time, of course it was a fake, but today, 200 years later, this fake has become an antique, but it is not an antique of the Ming Dynasty. Instead, the Qing Dynasty imitated the antiques of the Ming Dynasty.The water here is so deep! "

Xilou nodded, indicating that he understood.After all, he is too young, so he is not particularly interested in these antiques. It is just because he is a little curious about participating in the auction for the first time, and he is more interested in the high technology in Gu Nanri.

"Brother Ping, how do you know these things so well?"

Bai Shaoping smiled slightly and said, "Hey, I usually like to watch all kinds of Internet, so I understand some miscellaneous knowledge of ancient and modern China and foreign countries."

At this time, Liang Yinghai on the stage said loudly: "Regret is another kind of beauty. The starting price is 50 yuan! Every time the price increases, it will not be less than 2 yuan."

After Liang Ying posted the starting price, people in the audience began to increase the price.

"No. 3, 55 million!"

"No. 18, 58 million!"

Bai Shaoping didn't care about the price increase, but kept paying attention to the people who shouted the price increase, but unfortunately, there was no proprietress who looked like Bishui Pavilion, let alone the proprietress. I didn't see a few of them, either some elderly old men, or some local tyrants in their 60s and [-]s wearing gold and silver.

"The beautiful lady on No. 57 bids 61!"

Finally, there was a woman who increased the price. Bai Shaoping took a closer look. She was an aunt who was almost 60 years old. She was wearing heavy makeup, and the wrinkles on her face could not be covered by an extremely thick foundation. bloated.

Sighing inwardly, he shook his head slightly, even if this aunt is the proprietress of Bishui Pavilion, she is definitely not the partner of the mindless person he was looking for.

The bidding was still going on, when suddenly, a white indicator light outside the door of the first box on the right flickered.

Liang Yinghai was slightly startled, glanced at the display screen on the auction stage, and said excitedly: "Oh! The guest of No. 70 VIP bid [-]!"

Everyone looked sideways, the light in the private room represented a price increase, and the amount to be added was directly entered in the private room.

And after the price increase in the VIP private room No. [-], the indicator light of the other private room also flashed.

The corner of Liang Yinghai's mouth became more and more curved, "The guest of VIP No. 80, bid [-] yuan!"

Now it's interesting, and there are discussions on the stage.

"Both VIPs have bid, it seems that the bar is on the line, this time there will be a good show!"

"After all, it's the first one. They are all VIPs, so they are naturally high-spirited, so they can't be suppressed as soon as they come."

Sure enough, the people in the two private rooms of No. [-] and No. [-] kept increasing their prices, and the voice of raising prices from the audience gradually disappeared.

Bai Shaoping narrowed his eyes slightly, moved a few positions, and arrived at the seat behind a middle-aged man wearing glasses who looked more refined and easy to talk.

He whispered: "Brother, let me ask you something. Who are the people in these two private rooms, do you know?"

The middle-aged man glanced back at Bai Shaoping, and seeing that he looked kind, he said in a low voice, "Who else can there be? The two sons of the Ye family and the monk's family. No. [-] and No. [-] are their private rooms."

Hearing the name of the Ye family's monk's family, Bai Shaoping's heart skipped a beat, and he remembered that at the front desk of the Internet cafe in Gu Nanri, the little brother introduced that the only force in the entire southern Guangdong province that could wrestle with the Ye family seems to be the Shang family.

I couldn't help laughing bitterly in my heart, I didn't expect to meet someone I knew here.

"The No. [-] private room is that Ye Hongri from the Ye family?"

"Isn't that right? I often bring a bunch of beauties in there. Paying for the price is like drinking water. He usually doesn't bid, and we don't have anything to do with the bid. Watch him and the monk's family fight on both sides. Let's watch the fun .”

Bai Shaoping continued to ask: "Who is that Shang family?"

The middle-aged man was a little surprised, "The only son of the Shang family, Shang Kailong, the only son of the owner Shang Mingjie, Shang Kailong! He and Ye Hongri often quarreled and quarreled. Last auction, they yelled at each other in the hall. It's really ugly, but it was the owner of the auction house who came out to adjust the breath."

As soon as he entered the auction hall before, Bai Shaoping noticed that there were three private rooms with lights on, which meant that only three private rooms were occupied. Now, the number one was known to be Ye Hongri, the seventh was Shang Kailong, and there was another private room. The lights were on, but there was no price increase. Bai Shaoping counted, and it should be the fourth private room according to the order.

Could it be that the proprietress is in private room No. [-]?

One must know that to be able to open such a large-scale jewelry and jade store on the streets of the commercial center of Pengcheng City must be extremely wealthy, with assets worth at least hundreds of millions.

It's not too much to have a VIP room in the auction house.

So Bai Shaoping sat back in his seat, and secretly winked at Wang Bing, signaling him to go to the No. [-] private room, which has been silent all this time.

At this time, the first treasure, the Yuan blue and white phoenix wearing peony elephant ear vase, was finally priced at 125 million after Liang Yinghai dropped the hammer, which has greatly exceeded the value of the porcelain itself.

Liang Yinghai said with a smile: "Congratulations to the guests in the No. [-] private room for getting the Yuan blue and white phoenix wearing peony elephant ear bottle. If you need professional porcelain restoration, I can help introduce it."

And there was a cold snort from the No. [-] private room, obviously unconvinced.

Wang Bing also got up and walked towards the toilet. In fact, he was going to help Bai Shaoping find out about the situation in private room No. [-].
