"Chen Ya, when did you change your career? Did you become a leather worker?"
Lu Qianzi was originally listening to Chen Ya's serious explanation of science, but when she heard Miao Aoxue's words, she looked back with confusion in her eyes: "What is a cowhide maker?"
"A professional braggart!" Miao Aoxue giggled.
Zhou Youfu asked, "What does this friend do? A porcelain master in JDZ?"
"What porcelain master? He's not even a cooking master," Miao Aoxue smiled, her eyes turning into two crescent moons. "He's just bragging. You don't need to pay attention to him."
Miao Aoxue was puzzled by the experience in Yanhuolou. After returning home and watching a few short videos, she suddenly realized that there was a noble person supporting Chen Ya.
But you are a short video maker, and now you are talking so loudly about porcelain. Isn't that a big step forward?
Miao Aoxue didn't take her future father-in-law's advice to heart. She felt that Chen Ya had a bit of a nouveau riche mentality, and after achieving a little success, he wanted to brag in front of girls.
Lu Qingxuan ignored Miao Aoxue and said to Chen Ya, "How do you know they can do it?"
Chen Ya simply said, "I've been to the Ru Kiln."
"What's the normal market price for this? I want to buy one." Lu Qingxuan said.
Chen Ya looked at her: "Why did you buy this?"
"I have trouble sleeping."
"If you have trouble falling asleep, take melatonin."
Lu Qingxuan looked annoyed: "I must have developed drug resistance a long time ago, otherwise why would you ask this?"
"It's out of stock right now, so you can't buy it," Chen Ya said, "but if you want one, I'll give it to you later."
Lu Qingxuan was slightly stunned. She wanted to ask Chen Ya how he had the qualifications to give things away casually, but in the end she didn't ask.
Miao Aoxue curled her lips and thought to herself that Chen Ya was pretending again.
Behind him, Guo Menglin leaned over and asked Miao Aoxue beside him: "Do you know that woman?"
Miao Aoxue said: "I know her, that's Lu Qingxuan from the Lu family."
"The Lu family." Guo Menglin nodded, his eyes always on Lu Qingxuan, looking at her neck as smooth as porcelain and the black hair behind her head.
He likes this one, it looks hot.
Miao Aoxue supported Guo Menglin and said, "Uncle Guo, do you want this tea bowl?"
Guo Menglin said calmly: "If the price is only a little over one million, I might make a move, but the best is yet to come, so I have to hold back a little."
The price quickly rose to 1.5 million yuan, and the bidding remained fierce. Guo Menglin raised his bid several times before giving up. Zhou Youfu didn't raise his bid once.
The fierce competition at the auction lasted for a long time, and the sky-blue tea bowl was finally sold for 2.08 million.
This made Chen Ya quite satisfied.
When this tea bowl was sold to the Queen, she was only charged tens of thousands of dollars, and the cost of the tea bowl itself, including labor costs, was only a few thousand dollars.
Make a lot of money.
"Next is the second lot, an ivory folding fan with a white rose pattern."
As soon as the host finished speaking, the lights in the crystal box lit up and another object appeared in the video.
"This folding fan is carved from pure ivory. When unfolded, you can see the rose, the symbol of England. You can see that even the thorns entwined with the rose are so vividly carved by the master craftsman."
"The Queen of England loved this folding fan very much and carried it with her to many solemn occasions, such as the funeral of Prince Capet. It caused a heated discussion on British social media at the time. Few people knew that this folding fan came from China."
"Another point worth emphasizing is that the ivory used to make this folding fan was taken from an elephant in southern Yunnan that died of natural causes, so the cost is extremely high. The starting price is 3.2 million yuan."
As soon as he finished speaking, many people raised their signs again.
This time, there were slightly fewer people holding up signs than in the previous tea bowl. After all, not everyone is willing to hold an ivory folding fan in their hands, and if you don’t hold it in your hands, there is no point in buying a folding fan to take home.
A book-reading app recommended to me by a book friend of ten years, Huanyuan App! It's so damn useful! I use it to pass the time reading aloud and listening to books while driving or before bed. You can download it here.
Besides, the starting price is a bit high.
Guo Menglin patted his thigh behind him and said, "What a pity, it's just a folding fan. I quite like ivory products. If it were a bracelet or dominoes, I could buy one to take home and make a pair."
In the end, the folding fan was sold for 4.01 million yuan, and Chen Ya felt a little regretful.
The cost of this fan is much more expensive than that of the bowl. Although it was sold for four million, in comparison, the profit was not much.
Next, items such as the golden thorn white porcelain fruit plate, the Chinese blue handbag, and pearl earrings were auctioned, and the enthusiasm of the auctioneers was higher and higher than the last.
The girls sitting next to Chen Ya were becoming more and more surprised - this company really had something.
According to their impression, most of the daily necessities used by the Queen of Britain should be produced in the UK or by European and American companies.
The reason why domestic companies' products win her favor is probably because they are "exotic" (to the queen) or because they are good quality and low price.
As a result, the following lots were more luxurious than the last, and even beat the competitors in their traditional fields.
For example, the "Golden Thorn Fruit Plate" is a fruit plate inlaid with gold. The gold edge is made into the shape of thorns, and you can get pricked if you are not careful.
According to the host, the reason for making it in this shape is that in the British court, which pays attention to etiquette, this style of fruit plate can make the younger royal members more well-behaved.
For example, jewelry such as earrings and necklaces, domestic products always give people the impression of being "fakes", but Jiang Lizhi's finished products, both in terms of materials and craftsmanship, are more exquisite than what auctioneers have seen elsewhere.
