Compared to this time, Zhang Fan and others seemed to have realized something!
Some other businessmen who were watching this incident were also ready to take action.
If this is just an ordinary sculpture, even if the subject matter is very rare, as the saying goes, love is priceless, but except for those who truly love it, no one will offer a higher price.
However, if this thing has other meanings, then its hidden value will increase.
Just as what Old Liu revealed just now, this is actually a treasure heirloom of the Modesti family. It is very likely that whoever can get this thing will be able to become an important figure in the future of this family.
Its value is equivalent to the token of the patriarch of an ancient family, the military token used by a general to mobilize the army, or the jade seal in the hands of an emperor.
So some people anticipated this and got involved!
Three million won’t buy you any loss or cheating, and it’s nothing to the wealthy people present.
As a result, the price skyrocketed and reached around 3.8 million!
This is not the end yet. Rong Lecheng pushed it again lightly and directly increased it to four million.
The situation in the entire auction hall seemed to have opened up, and many people began to correctly estimate the value of this thing, and it seemed that some people wanted to raise the price.
At this moment, compared to others, he suddenly realized what was going on and planned to take action.
The faces of several young men from the Modesti family turned very ugly.
"That old man is just trying to make things difficult for us. We could have bought it at a very low price, but now it's going to be a very large investment."
"Mr. Katana, you must not let this thing slip away from us. You must get it."
Katana clenched his fists in anger. If they were abroad, no one would dare to compete with him for anything.
But here, he felt helpless.
He gritted his teeth and stood up from his seat.
"I'm offering four and a half million! And I have something to say."
Wang Meijuan, who hosted the auction, immediately asked the staff to hand over the microphone.
Katana took the microphone and said with sharp eyes.
“This statue is of great significance. Our Modesti family is determined to obtain it. It is said that your locals are warm and hospitable, and everyone knows that a gentleman does not take away what others like!
Therefore, I would like to ask everyone to give our Modesti family a favor and allow us to get this statue. I will remember your kindness today, and when you go abroad in the future, the Modesti family will definitely welcome you in person. "
Rong Lecheng burst out laughing!
His laughter seemed very abrupt and full of sarcasm amid Katana's serious attitude.
This made Katana's eyes immediately widen to the size of a cow, and he stared at Rong Lecheng angrily.
The people around smiled and said nothing!
Mr. Liu, who had offered a very high price before, laughed heartily and said.
"Everyone, this guy has already begged us, I think we should give this statue to them?"
The other old man smiled and said, "Yes, we are a great country, so we should behave like a great country. But don't forget what these people have done."
"Modesti family, you once funded a large number of horse thieves to burn, kill and plunder everywhere. This happened many years ago, but don't think about letting this matter disappear in time!
We who were once robbed by you still remember what you did back then.”
Someone finally revealed why they were targeting the Modesti family!
The whole audience was instantly shocked!
Some of the auctioneers present were very young people, and they were all very surprised to hear that there was such a history.
"So this is how they got their start? It's really unexpected. We must not let them get their wish."
"Brother, what era is this now? It's a peaceful time. We should show our generosity and character. It's just a statue, right? So what if we give it to them?"
Someone expressed his or her views at the auction venue!
Zhang Fan held his chin with his hand and watched the development of the situation with a smile.
No matter what others think, he is determined to get this statue. He is very curious about how the werewolf merged the two objects together.
Moreover, there is a treasure worth hundreds of millions in this jade carving.
With such an opportunity to make money right in front of him, he couldn't just give it up for nothing, right?
So while they were arguing, Zhang Fan finally came up with a price that he thought was normal.
"I'll give you eight million!"
A calm, indifferent, and magnetic voice wanted to withdraw from the entire auction venue.
The people who were arguing just now seemed to have their voices muted. Even their breathing was almost silent, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.
Wang Meijuan is a remarkable woman who has handled auction items worth billions, but she was still attracted by Zhang Fan's voice, and showed a surprised expression because of the extremely high price.
This is not because the price Zhang Fan offered was too high, because Wang Meijuan had privately estimated the value of each auction item herself and also collected a lot of very eye-catching highlights of the collection.
In this way, the transaction price of this sculpture of Oriental beauty will never exceed seven million.
However, Zhang Fan directly bid eight million, which can be said to be a very accurate vision for an ordinary person.
Even experienced auctioneers who work professionally in auction houses and have more than ten years of experience find it difficult to grasp the true value of such rare collections.
Therefore, although Wang Meijuan and Zhang Fan had never met each other, they had a vague feeling that they knew each other well.
So Wang Meijuan immediately looked at Zhang Fan with a smile, her bright eyes taking in Zhang Fan's face, and she said with a soft laugh.
"My God, this gentleman must have known the artistic value of this collection. He actually raised the price to eight million. I can see that he must be a gentleman, perhaps also a romantic philosopher."
Zhang Fan treated Wang Meijuan's way of praising him with indifference!
He didn't want to be watched like a monkey by everyone, and because of his calm attitude, many people realized that something was wrong.
If Zhang Fan really liked this sculpture, he shouldn't be so calm and composed.
It looks like he's deliberately looking for trouble.
It only cost eight million to raise the price just to make the Modesti family bleed, and then they were directly slapped in the face.
Facing such a cool Zhang Fan, even though Wang Meijuan has been in the business world for a long time and has mastered her mentality to perfection.
But now he was also made extremely embarrassed by Zhang Fan's aloofness.
After all, Wang Meijuan regarded Zhang Fan as a close friend like herself, but she didn't expect that the other party didn't take her seriously at all.
This feeling of being ignored and empty really disappointed Wang Meijuan. ?
