"Mrs. Wang, please be patient for now. It's not worth offending the auction house just for a love interest." Xie Lanxin said in Mrs. Wang's ear.
Mrs. Wang took a deep breath. It was not because she was afraid of Mu Qing, but because she did not want to offend the owner of the auction house.
Although I don't know who the owner of this auction house is, but since it can run on such a large scale in the imperial capital, it must not be a small family.
The scene fell silent, and the large screen on the stage began to scroll through pictures of the items to be auctioned today.
"I declare that the auction officially begins!"
"Please invite the etiquette lady to show the first batch of auction items. You can also turn on the display screen in front of your seat to view the images of the auction items."
Mu Qing noticed that the screen in front of her seat lit up and there was a picture on it.
She clicked on it, and the picture immediately enlarged and could be rotated in three dimensions, allowing people to see the auction items from all angles. There was also a text description of the auction items on the side.
"The first lot for auction is a painting of flowers and birds. Since ancient times, famous poets and scholars have loved to paint flowers, birds, and landscapes. This painting is of exquisite skill. Although it is not the work of a famous artist, it bears the weight of time. It is over 600 years old and is well-preserved with vibrant colors."
"This auction item has a starting price of 800,000 yuan. There's no limit on the amount of the bid. The highest bidder wins."
"Please bid, everyone."
On one side of the chair, there is a white number plate, and the number on the plate is the same as the number on the seat.
Many people have already raised signs.
"Eight hundred and twenty thousand. This gentleman bids eight hundred and twenty thousand."
"Nine hundred thousand!"
"Nine hundred and thirty thousand!"
"One million!"
"One million and one hundred thousand!"
The price is constantly rising. It seems that collectors of calligraphy and paintings particularly like this auction item.
Paintings by famous artists can easily cost tens of millions, and some even cost hundreds of millions, making the prices beyond the reach of ordinary people.
However, there are also some paintings that are of exquisite painting skills, well-preserved, and reasonably priced, and are equally sought after.
"Three million! Three million! Anyone else want to bid? Three million once! Three million twice! Three million three times!"
The final word.
A man who looked to be in his sixties took the picture.
"The second lot is a piece of porcelain from an imperial kiln. It has a very distinct sense of age. As soon as you see the patterns on it, you can tell which dynasty it came from. The starting price is 100,000 yuan. Each bid will increase by 1,000 yuan. The highest bidder wins!"
"One hundred thousand and one thousand!"
"This gentleman bids one hundred and two thousand."
…
The auction was still going on, and more than ten items had already been sold. Mu Qing didn't know how long it would take for the item she wanted to appear.
Moreover, there was no auction order on the electronic display screen in front of him.
"The next lot to be auctioned is a set of four paintings. This kind of lot is extremely rare and is a very worthwhile collection. It has unlimited room for appreciation in the future market."
Mu Qing took a look at the four paintings and felt a little strange.
She opened her phone again and took a closer look at the pictures she had received earlier.
"Anan, look, it seems different."
“Although these four paintings are also mainly about architecture, the architectural style is completely different from what we have seen before.”
“But I like these too.”
"The reserve price is 300,000 yuan, and there's no limit to the amount of the bid. The highest bidder wins."
