I looked at my father Jackie Chan in 1988

"what?"

"Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup?"

Zhu Flocking and Zhi Youcai were taken aback, their eyes widened!

Not to mention them, even Ji Sheng was stunned at the moment. He had heard Jiang Jianxin say that Mr. Cheng might have a Chenghua Doucai here, but he never thought it would be the Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup. !

Why are they so surprised?

Because the Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup is really shocking!

In the history of the development of Chinese porcelain, Ming Chenghua Doucai is definitely a superstar existence.

Although there are many high-quality goods in the official kilns of the Qing Dynasty that are comparable to Chenghua Doucai, and there are larger types of wares, generally speaking, most of the Doucai porcelains in the prosperous Qing Dynasty are exquisitely painted, which has changed the Chenghua Doucai "leaf". Without the weaknesses of "reversed side" and "four seasons single clothes", the pattern is stronger.

But it also lost the delicate and elegant demeanor of Chengcai.

There is a saying in the porcelain industry to describe the status of fighting colors, enamel is the first, and fighting colors is the second.

Some people even say that ten pieces of fighting color are not as good as one piece of enamel.

Indeed, from all angles, fighting color seems to be inferior to enamel. Even in auctions, enamel color is also the most expensive auction variety of porcelain besides blue and white porcelain.

But there is an exception to everything!

That is the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup!

There are too few of these things in existence. Ji Sheng remembers that there are only seventeen Chenghua color-fighting chicken cups known in the world in modern society, and thirteen of them are still in museums, really circulating among collectors. There are only four of them!

Among them, the auction record of the Chenghua Doucai chicken cup has verified the value of the chicken cup.

In 910, Xiangjiang Sotheby's Auction Company auctioned Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup and sold it at a sky-high price of 2000 million. In [-], it was more than [-] million Hong Kong dollars. This was the auction of ancient Chinese porcelain at that time. The highest transaction record in the market.

And in [-], the Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup from Meiyintang was sold at Sotheby Spring Auction in Hong Kong for a terrifying price of [-] million, which once again broke the world auction record for Chinese porcelain!

If someone thinks that the Ming Chenghua Chicken Crock Cup is only valuable at auction later, it is a big mistake.

As far as Ji Sheng knows, as early as 1980, Xiangjiang Sotheby also auctioned a Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup, and the winner was Sakamoto, a famous Japanese collector known as "Little Napoleon". Goro, at that time this person was photographed at a sky-high price of 520 million Hong Kong dollars!

Sotheby's is Sotheby's, but Ji Sheng wanted to distinguish between the different names in modern society and the 80s, just like he would never call his father Ji Aiguo in modern society.

Naturally, when Ji Sheng heard that there was an auction of the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup at Cheng Jianjun's side, he was completely stunned.

He brought a full 100 million in cash in his bag. He spent more than [-] just now, and there are probably more than [-]. At this moment, he couldn't help worrying: "Mr. Cheng, I may not have enough money. Come down, can you pay the deposit first, and I am willing to pay in the form of foreign exchange later."

"How much money did you bring?" Cheng Jianjun asked.

Ji Sheng smiled wryly; "I only brought 100 million cash here, and I spent another hundred thousand."

Cheng Jianjun was taken aback, "You carry a million or so in your hand? Are you not afraid of being murdered for money?"

Ji Sheng looked at him with a blink of an eye, "I don't show anything unusual, who knows I have money in my bag?"

Cheng Jianjun thought so too, and said with a smile: "Mr. Ji is indeed a skilled and bold man." He pondered for a moment, "Okay, if you give the foreign exchange, I can only charge [-]% of the transaction price."

Zhu Flocking and Zhi Youcai showed such expressions as expected. Although Cheng Jianjun said that he was willing to give up [-]% of the price, it seemed very favorable. In fact, if Ji Sheng gave foreign exchange, Cheng Jianjun would exchange those foreign currencies on the black market , can earn [-]% easily.

……

It looks like 01:30 in the morning.

Cheng Jianjun brought Ji Sheng and others to the compound of the fourth hospital.

This is the main courtyard of the whole house. As soon as Ji Sheng came in, he saw twenty or thirty people sitting upright. Some of them might know each other, and they were whispering and chatting with their heads down. When they saw Cheng Jianjun, Ji Sheng and others coming in, they all greeted each other. .

"Mr. Cheng."

"Xiao Cheng, you can count on it."

"When does the auction start?"

"I'm getting impatient waiting."

Some people speak more politely, while others speak more casually.

Cheng Jianjun laughed loudly, "Start right away, start right away, let me introduce someone to you first." Then, he pulled Ji Sheng in front of everyone, "This is Mr. Ji Shengji, he is very capable, wait After the auction is over, you all need to get closer to him, especially you, Xiao Zhang, don't offend my distinguished guest, Mr. Ji."

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in the crowd said carelessly: "Brother Cheng, can you rest assured about me, I'm not that reckless."

Ji Sheng followed the sound and was stunned!

why?

Because he knows this person named Xiao Zhang!

Or understanding in modern society.

That's right, this person is Lao Zhang, the organizer of the private auction that Ji Sheng was invited by Ning Jie before!

Although Lao Zhang now looks very green and has no wrinkles on his face, he is basically the same as that in modern society.

Ji Sheng remembered that Boss Li used "supernatural powers" to describe Lao Zhang in the modern society. Now that he saw Lao Zhang or Xiao Zhang and Mr. Cheng here, he had a vague idea of ​​Lao Zhang's background, and he probably did too. The son of a big family in the capital.

We got acquainted for a while, but everyone is not very familiar with Ji Sheng, and they all seem to lack interest.

Ji Sheng didn't care either, and sat down with Zhu Zhirong and Zhi Youcai at the back of the comparison.

Waited a while longer.

About a dozen more people came in from outside and sat down.

At this moment, Cheng Jianjun personally stood in front of the front table, clasped his hands politely, and said, "Thank you for giving Cheng some face and participating in tonight's auction, thank you."

"Hurry up and start."

"I can't wait."

"What's so good about this time?"

The people below booed for a while.

Cheng Jianjun laughed and said, "Okay, don't gossip, because there are a few new friends participating, let me introduce the rules of the auction."

Ji Sheng showed a weird expression, thinking, why is it almost exactly the same as Lao Zhang's private auction?He probably knew why Lao Zhang's private auction was held like that, and he learned from Cheng Jianjun when he co-authored it?

Sure enough, even the rules are almost the same, it is nothing more than not being allowed to ask someone to make a malicious bid, and there is a default increase in the price if you raise your hand and don't bid.

After the introduction, Cheng Jianjun said mysteriously, "Guess what is the opening item for this auction?"

Generally speaking, the first item in the auction is definitely not bad.

When he said this, everyone became interested, and there was a lot of discussion below.

Cheng Jianjun didn't keep everyone guessing for too long, and said bluntly: "The first thing to be auctioned is Zhang Zuolin's military uniform, which looks like the Army and Navy Grand Admiral commemorating two silver coins, which are still from the 16th year of the Republic of China."

He lifted the red cloth from a wooden plate brought by a young man, and there were two silver coins in it.

There was an uproar at the scene.

"what?"

"Two samples of Zhang Zuolin's military uniform in the 16th year of the Republic of China, like the Grand Marshal of the Army and Navy?"

"Oh, Mr. Cheng really got something good this time. There are not many sample coins of this level in the world!"

Ji Sheng also held his breath for a while. He had obtained Republic of China silver coins and sold them for money before, and then inquired about the prices of various Republic of China silver coins. Of course, he knew the value of the commemorative silver coins of Zhang Zuolin's military uniform resembling the Grand Admiral of the Army and Navy in 16 years of the Republic of China!

In the modern society, Zhang Zuolin's military uniform looks like the Grand Admiral of the Army and Navy's commemorative silver coins, plus the silver coins issued and circulated in the 15th year of the Republic of China. There are only eight pieces in total, and each one is worth 2000 million!

He never expected to see two sample coins of the 16th year of the Republic of China here!

"Be quiet." Cheng Jianjun stabilized the order of the scene, and then said: "If you are interested, you can come up and palm your eyes first. If you like it, you can bid for it later."

The private auction of the Chinese and Lao Zhang is a routine process.

Forty or fifty people at the scene were almost all interested, and with a bang, they all flocked to the front to observe.

Ji Sheng also took Zhu Flocking to take a look.

Zhu Flocking watched carefully for more than a minute, and then said to Ji Sheng with a solemn face: "These two sample coins are deeply molded, with sharp inner teeth, and the portrait on the front and the picture of Jiahe Rising Sun on the back are highly embossed. It is meticulously depicted and the casting is exquisite, it can be called the pinnacle of modern Chinese portrait coins, it is so precious, it should be genuine."

Ji Sheng believed Zhu Flocking's judgment, and his mood became even more excited. It is rare to see a treasure of this level, but there are actually two auctions here at the same time, and he will desperately take pictures of everything he says!

Just after everyone returned to their seats.

Cheng Jianjun said: "The starting price of these two sample coins is 5000 yuan, and each increase should not be less than [-] yuan."

What the hell!

The starting price is [-]?

Ji Sheng was also surprised when he heard that, more than [-] yuan in the current era is worth more than [-] yuan, but he thought about it, this level of sample currency is extremely rare in any period, and it is normal for the starting price to be expensive, and it is still two bid together.

Immediately, someone raised her hand. It was a fat woman in her 30s sitting in the first row. She didn't say a word, and obviously agreed to the starting price.

Cheng Jianjun immediately said, "Sister Zhu starts at [-] yuan."

As soon as the words were spoken here, three or four more people raised their hands immediately, and they also didn't ask for a price.

"One hundred and five thousand!"

"11 million!"

"11!"

"12 million!"

In just a short while, two silver coins were called to 12!

Then, someone else got involved.

The price climbed to 15 million.

Ji Sheng hadn't called for a price before, he wanted to see what price the two silver coins would be called for, and then he would pull them away and take them all in one fell swoop.

"Xiao Zhang bid 15 yuan, is there anyone going to raise the price?" Cheng Jianjun looked at the crowd and asked, but no one said a word when he asked for the first time, he continued: "15 yuan, no one continues to raise the price?"

Still no one raised their hands below.

Cheng Jianjun felt a little regretful, so he said, "Fifteen..."

Ji Sheng raised his hand suddenly, "20!"

Whoa!

Whispering on the scene!

"20?"

"Oh, this Mr. Ji is so proud!"

"Yeah, the scarcity of these two sample coins is scarce, but I think 15 is almost the same, and he suddenly increased the price by [-]?"

"Hey, what's the origin of this Mr. Ji? 20 in one shot?"

"I don't know. Old Cheng didn't introduce it very carefully just now."

Some people were a little surprised by Ji Sheng's generous price increase of [-], and they were also interested in Ji Sheng for the first time.

20 is not a small amount in the current era. For many people, this number may not be able to covet it for the rest of their lives, but Ji Sheng has only made one price up to now, the first time he asked for 20. , how could you not be interested?

Although everyone still doesn't know who Ji Sheng's real identity is, it doesn't prevent them from knowing from Ji Sheng's bid that this Mr. Ji is definitely a big boss, and he is one of the top in China!

Cheng Jianjun was overjoyed, and immediately said, "20, is there anyone going to raise the price?"

A middle-aged and elderly man in his 50s hesitated for a while in the crowd, but finally did not raise his hand.

Cheng Jianjun shouted again: "20, no one raised the price?"

With such a high price, no one will increase it. Basically, everyone gave up raising the price and just looked at Ji Sheng frequently.

Cheng Jianjun asked for the third time, "20, the last time." He paused for a while, and then said, "Successful!"

Got it!

20 won these two precious sample coins!

Ji Sheng was very excited. He knew that many people at the scene would think that 20 was too much. Indeed, if he was a person of this era, he would think so too, but unfortunately Ji Sheng is not. He can freely travel in the 80s time and space and Traveling back and forth in the modern society, these two sample coins fetched an absolutely sky-high price in the modern society!

Of course, this is just an appetizer.

Although these two sample coins are very precious, Ji Sheng's goal tonight is not these two silver coins, but the more precious Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup, come quickly, he can't wait to get it!
