"40 million once"
"40 million twice"
"40 million thrice"
"Congratulations to the Wu family's daughter for buying the jade bracelet. This one is from the Tang Dynasty and was once worn by Yang Guifei. It now belongs to the Wu family's daughter, Wu Chuchu. Congratulations."
Wu Chuchu raised the corners of her mouth and showed a smug smile.
Haha, I am really good. I managed to snatch the jade bracelet from Lin.
I am so awesome that I defeated Lin with just one move.
Lin Haoyu and Lin Tianhai turned around and gave her a look of gratitude.
Lin Qianqian gave her a thumbs up.
Wu Chuchu was so awesome that even her enemies gave her a thumbs up and praised her for what a great thing she had done.
Hahahaha, even my enemies are starting to compliment me.
The more Wu Chuchu thought about it, the more she felt she was incredible, and she burst into laughter.
Haha ...
The entire venue was filled with her hammer-like laughter.
Ye Ming sat in his seat, holding the price tag of "100 million" in his right hand.
This was the price he originally planned to offer for the jade bracelet, but after hearing Lin Qianqian's thoughts, he put the price tag under the table.
Although I am rich, I am not an idiot.
Tong Fan, who was standing by the wall, pushed his black-framed glasses to hide his inner shock.
Young Master Ye always keeps his word and will never change his decision.
Why have you given up on everything you wanted to shoot?
If Tong Fan hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it.
Tong Fan was full of doubts as to why Ye Club seemed like a different person.
Ye Ming had a cold face, thinking that it was more reliable to sit next to Lin Qianqian, where there would be more new things to do. He also wanted to hear what else Lin Qianqian had to complain about.
The second round of bidding has begun.
Two beautiful emcees came onto the stage carrying a square wooden box. The box seemed very heavy and it was a bit difficult to lift it. The two beauties slowed down their pace and moved little by little towards the table in the middle where the items were placed.
He carefully placed the wooden box on the table and turned to leave.
The host returned to the center of the stage, with a professional smile on his face and a welcome gesture with his hands.
"As you can see, the treasures for the second round of auction have been delivered to the stage. Now it's time to witness the miracle."
The host raised his hand and lifted the red silk veil, and the true appearance of the wooden box appeared in front of everyone.
The wooden box is hollowed out, and the antiques inside can be vaguely seen through the empty space.
All the audience looked at the stage intently, wondering what the item was.
Seeing everyone's interest piqued, the host introduced in a high-pitched and resonant voice, "Next, I will introduce this new lot to everyone. I believe it will not disappoint you."
He opened the lock of the hollow wooden box with his hands, slowly lifted the box up and separated it from the items.
As the wooden box slowly rose, the item revealed its true appearance.
The etiquette lady took away the hollow wooden box of the outer packaging, and only the antique to be auctioned was left on the table.
"This round of auction is for a bronze tripod that was unearthed 80 years ago. It was cast in the late Shang Dynasty and is from the same period as the Simuwu Ding. Furthermore, this bronze vessel has a deep connection with the Simuwu Ding. According to expert appraisal, these two bronze vessels belonged to the same owner during the Shang Dynasty."
The Simuwu Ding has long been worth over 100 million yuan and has been kept in captivity.
"This bronze vessel has been in a private collection for a long time. Now the collector has donated it, and the proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Green Cross."
"The Green Cross will then deliver the donations to those in need."
After the host introduced the items, he mentioned the starting price, "The starting price for the bronze tripod is 30 million."
"The auction officially begins now."
The people in the audience started talking again.
The bronze tripod is obviously more valuable than the jade bracelet in the first round.
"If it can be auctioned, it should be able to sell for hundreds of millions."
"Yes, but can we compete with those powerful companies?"
"I think it's tough. Our company is not as big as theirs, so let's just give it our best shot."
The people who were speaking were from the last row.
Seats are allocated based on the ranking of the companies, with the top companies in the front row and the lower-ranked companies in the back.
Some people heard the discussions and laughed disdainfully. His purpose in buying antiques was to collect them, not to resell them.
"I'll offer 40 million." He raised the price tag and shouted.
"Okay, 40 million each time," said the host.
"Forty-five million"
"Fifty million"
"Fifty-five million"
The competition for bronze ware was even more intense than that for jade bracelets. Many people placed bids, and the entire venue was very lively.
Only the Lin and Ye families in the front row did not make any movement.
After the last round of jade bracelet incident, Lin Haoyu no longer acted rashly. He decided to listen to Lin Qianqian's heart first.
Ye Ming did the same, he was waiting to hear Lin Qianqian's complaints.
Lin Qianqian glanced at the bronze artifact. The patina was unevenly distributed and the bronze was very old, as if it had been buried underground for a long time.
[Uh... this thing looks like the real thing. These days, counterfeiting is so advanced, even better than Yiwu. It's so real, but fake is fake.]
[Look at this spray painting process, the master's salary must be 3,000]
[The bronze was collected from a scrap yard, costing a few hundred yuan, plus other miscellaneous expenses, so the total cost was only about two thousand yuan.]
[It actually sold for tens of millions. This input-output ratio is so high that even Newton would have to toast Du Fu three times.]
[So many people are still fighting over this crap thing. How is this any different from throwing money on the street? No, if you throw money on the street, at least you can see it. This thing is like a money shredder, it will destroy your money in an instant.]
[Haha, there are so many rich people. I'll go wholesale a batch someday, bury it in the soil, add some paint, and sell it for hundreds of millions. I'll be rich, rich, and I won't have to drive screws anymore.]
Lin Qianqian complained calmly.
Chen Ran and Lin Tianhai on her left looked at each other, and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
This is fucking fake. Thanks to Lin Qianqian for complaining about it, otherwise I would have wasted tens of millions of dollars.
Lin Haoyu frowned, it was so explosive, they were treating him like a pig.
Fortunately, I could hear Lin Qianqian’s thoughts, otherwise I would become a韭菜 again.
Ye Ming's eyes were solemn. He encountered so many surprises on his first day at an auction.
The auction was quite complicated, and even an old hand like me almost got drowned.
So how much water is there in the photos taken by the company before?
When Lin Qianqian turned around, she saw a pensive and cold face.
[Oops, I forgot about Ye Ming]
[Of the fifty pieces of collections Ye had previously purchased, twenty-five were fake]
Ye Ming even put the collection in his office and cleaned it himself every day. Hehehe, you wouldn't have thought that half of it is plastic.
[After the money went to the Green Cross, some of it was used to buy bags.]
