Chapter 170 Others fight for it, but I pick it up. Hey! It’s just for fun!
Then she waited patiently for the first artifact to appear.
The auctioneer was Miss Chen Liangling, who was very popular and elegant on the Internet and wore a cheongsam. At this moment, she was dressed in a blue dress, with a cold and innocent face and beautiful eyes full of affection.
His voice was crisp yet steady, and he was an auctioneer with great temperament.
When she started auctioning the first artifact, she introduced it as an animal-head agate cup made of twisted agate.
Gu Shengsheng knew it was a high-quality imitation and did nothing.
But people around him kept bidding higher, and the item, which had an initial price of 300,000 yuan, was auctioned off to 9 million yuan.
Gu Shengsheng felt strange.
These people... shouldn't be like this.
The second cultural relic followed, and auctioneer Chen Liangling introduced that it was a gilded silver pot with a dancing horse holding a cup pattern, which was inspired by the leather bag pots used by nomadic people.
This cultural relic was authenticated by the system, and Gu Shengsheng was also sure that it was authentic, as she had also seen it in a parallel universe.
But... no one around bid.
The initial price was 700,000. Gu Shengsheng saw that no one raised a bid, so he bought it directly when the final bid was called.
Everyone around her looked at her strangely, as if she were an idiot.
Gu Shengsheng was no stranger to these gazes.
They act like... they seem to know in advance which goods are real and which are fake.
And then just take the picture now.
Because most of the people who come to the auction now are not the bosses themselves, but they have hired agents to bid for them.
Gu Shengsheng didn't know which link had gone wrong.
The fat man beside him looked helpless and even a little regretful: "Why did you spend all this money?"
"No one's buying it. Are you going to go out and auction off some garbage? Even though you're a newbie, there's no novice protection period in the treasure appraisal industry."
Gu Shengsheng nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay, spending money is also part of learning."
"..." Mr. Fat was obviously a talkative person. "I'm not saying anything, but those competitors clearly knew something in advance... I'm afraid we're just here to run for the sake of it."
Gu Shengsheng nodded. Even he could see it. What these people did was too obvious.
If this is the case, then it proves that the final artifacts are still different from what they knew. They thought they were fake, but now they all become real?
At first, Gu Shengsheng was just guessing, but when she found the fifth piece, the situation was still the same. She knew that there might be a problem within these antique dealers...
Her heart was beating wildly. She had already spent 30 million to find something that was worth 80 million...
Never mind, why not take it if it’s a bargain?
Gu Shengsheng would take advantage of any bargain she could get.
Then, when the auctioneer was talking about the penultimate item, he mentioned a silver sachet with grape, flower and bird patterns in the style of the ancient Silk Road... The properties of the fabric panel of this item were quickly identified and it was found to be authentic.
But other people also knew about it, and then the competition reached 30 million. Gu Shengsheng didn't want it and directly gave up, and it was taken away by a wealthy businessman.
Then came the last artifact. Gu Shengsheng saw that it was a picture and knew at first glance that it was from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.
It was not put on display just now.
But now, placed here... everyone around said it looked very familiar.
"Isn't this the painting created by painter Li Xingwu based on the 'Twenty-Four Musical Instruments' of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period? I remember it being a famous exhibit at the City Museum!"
"The ones in the museum must be real, but they're using this garbage to deceive people."
"This kind of hurried auction is so annoying. There's everything. Luckily there's a little girl collecting garbage here, right?"
“…”
Everyone was arguing, not restrained at all, and their words fell into the ears of Gu Shengsheng, the "garbage collector girl".
Still no one was bidding, and the fat man next to him sighed. "Well, you're going to auction again, right?"
"It's up to you. I won't say anything more. Just now you told me you had learned it, but I think you have failed."
Gu Shengsheng smiled and said, "Of course I have my reasons. Thank you for your guidance, sir."
After saying that, Gu Shengsheng raised the sign to bid.
Everyone is used to it.
Many of them came from Hong Kong, but they didn’t know Gu Shengsheng’s reputation in the mainland.
At this moment, I can only sigh. This is a little girl with no foundation at all, and most importantly, she has no sense at all.
After taking the photos, Gu Shengsheng suppressed her inner excitement and calmly packed the items into her pocket.
She originally wanted to pick one of the pieces from the auction to give to Shang Jinhao, but now, no painting is more suitable than the Twenty-Four Musical Instruments.
"The Twenty-Four Musical Instruments is a work from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. This painting is vivid and exquisitely crafted. Most importantly, Gu Shengsheng discovered that they also have an engraved version."
The engraving is much more valuable than the painting!
The most precious cultural relic in Yongling is naturally the "Twenty-Four Musical Instruments" carved inside the coffin bed and pot door.
This engraving system cannot be authenticated, but when Gu Shengsheng saw it for the first time, she felt like crying.
She was working as an antiquities appraiser in another parallel universe. This engraving board probably appeared in 2045. She spent three years repairing it... and then it appeared in the world and was confirmed to be a genuine antiquity.
None of her efforts were in vain.
She had studied this thing so thoroughly that she could tell what it was when she saw a plate, let alone one that was in such good condition.
I didn’t expect that in 2023... this carving of the Twenty-Four Musical Instruments was not destroyed!
Unfortunately, everyone present was only staring at the painting and didn't notice the sample behind it...
The painting was copied later, and the most vivid one is the later model.
The initial price of this cultural relic was 30 million, and Gu Shengsheng stood up and bought it without hesitation.
Everyone around her thought she was crazy and no one competed with her.
Of course, she herself doesn't care.
This thing must be placed in a museum, the Palace Museum, and it can also be exhibited to the public to increase its fame. Gu Shengsheng thinks it couldn't be better!
After all, there are too many fakes in the "Twenty-Four Music" nowadays. At that time, the Sakura Country said that it was lost to them, and then it was the United States...
Finally, it was purchased jointly by Hangzhou Museum and Hanwu Museum.
Now it seems that fake goods were sold here from abroad.
It is already very difficult for us to buy back our own cultural relics from abroad, and it even costs a lot of money. Now we can take advantage of this opportunity to show the deterrent power of China's treasure appraisal.
After the auction was over, Gu Shengsheng went to find Shang Jinhao to explain the situation.
I thought Shang Jinhao would be unhappy. Unexpectedly, he had no doubts at all: "Ms. Gu, you make the arrangements."
"I don't understand this in the first place. Although many people have been scolding you just now, Mr. Qiu Xiaojun, Zhang Rulan, and Zhang Zhengyi all support you. I have no reason to doubt you."
"I'm just worried that if I take this Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms era 'Twenty-Four Musical Instruments' engraving and paintings to an exhibition, I need to talk to the Hanwu Museum and the Hangzhou Museum in advance, as they already have similar artifacts on display."
It's a little cold here. I ate egg yolk pastry today. Please keep warm. Being happy is the most important thing. Love you, babies.
