I'm the big president

The host on the auction table is an old auctioneer who is over half a century old. He is now auctioning a one-foot-high statue of Hanuman. This statue is made of gold. With a history of more than 2000 years, the starting price is 50 euros, and each price increase is not less than [-] euros.

The old auctioneer on the stage was eloquently introducing the various benefits of the golden Hanuman statue. The audience was silent, and the scene was actually cold. Qin Yang, who was sitting in the private room, felt a little strange. There were a large group of well-dressed rich people sitting under the stage. Why does no one like this golden statue?
"The 20.00% purity is also called a gold statue? It's almost called K gold. Only a fool would want this kind of thing!"

Christina rolled her eyes at the statue on the LCD screen with disdain, and muttered something in a low voice. Qin Yang heard it clearly, and asked with a smile: "Where did you see that this statue is only 20.00% pure?"

Christina pointed to the screen and said, "Look at the small print on the bottom of the screen, there are various data of the lot marked."

Qin Yang looked in the direction of her finger, and sure enough, he saw a line of small characters, all the data of the lot were marked, this golden statue was only 20.00% pure, it was such a bunch of fake things, no wonder no one bid for it.

The Hanuman statue was cold for 5 minutes, and the auction was unsold. The second lot was a piece of porcelain, a Jun Kiln Begonia Red Chicken Heart Bowl from the Northern Song Dynasty in Huaxia. One hundred thousand euros.

As soon as the old auctioneer finished introducing the lot, someone raised a placard to increase the price, but the price increase was not large. They were all [-] lots. After adding three lots, they fell silent. Qin Yang frowned and asked in a low voice: "This thing No one seems to like it, if I take a picture, can I take it back?"

Christina said: "Wei An Auction takes a high-end route, and all the items auctioned can be checked in, and they are guaranteed to be delivered to you."

Qin Yang said: "You help me add two hands, and then I can deduct from Van Gogh."

"it is good!"

Christina bid directly with the remote control, 15 yuan per lot, but no one continued to increase the price. The auctioneer dropped the hammer to make the deal, and the Jun Kiln Begonia Red Chicken Heart Bowl belonged to the No. [-] private room.

"Take it?"

There was a surprised expression on Qin Yang's face, as if he didn't expect to get a Jun Kiln Chicken Heart Bowl so easily.

Christina smiled and said, "I got it, the item is good, and the price is okay."

Qin Yang frowned and said, "I don't understand this either, it looks pretty."

There are bids for the next auction, but there is no such a situation of high-handed bidding. The real auction market tends to be rational. These auctions have been warmed up for a month. People have already had a reasonable valuation of their favorite items, and it is difficult for both parties to raise the price.

The reserve price is basically set for the lot, and the old auctioneer controls the rhythm just right. After halftime, more than ten items were auctioned. There is a 10-minute break in the halftime. Everyone can exercise their bodies and solve personal problems. Acquainted friends drink tea and chat.

There are things like wine and fruit snacks in the private room. It is easy to spend money to eat and drink, but it seems a little deserted.

Christina poured two glasses of red wine, gave one to Qin Yang, and took one for herself.

Qin Yang reached out and picked up a bag of beef jerky from the table, unpacked it, and took out a piece of meat to serve with wine. Red wine and dried meat tasted particularly delicious.

Christina gently shook the wine glass in her hand, and said in a low voice: "Petersen hosted the second half, and I don't know if that guy can fetch a surprising price for Van Gogh's paintings."

Qin Yang shook his head and said, "A surprise price is unlikely at this pace. It would be good if it was sold at a price higher than the reserve price." To be honest, he didn't care if Van Gogh's paintings could be sold at a surprise price, as the reserve price was always good. Tens of millions, compared to the cost of ten euros, it is a big profit.

Christina smiled and said, "That's not necessarily the case. Other auctions have a one-month warm-up, so it's normal not to have a high price, but Van Gogh's paintings are a big surprise for most of the participants. I have a hunch, Jinqiu Gleaners will definitely fetch a surprising price.”

Qin Yang smiled and said: "Sometimes fate must have something, if there is no one in fate, it is already a surprise to me to be able to get the reserve price."

Christina said affirmatively: "Jinqiu Gleaners cannot bid for the reserve price, because it is a work of Van Gogh, and it is possible to double it."

Qin Yang smiled lightly and said, "I'll treat you to supper if you bid a high price, and you can order whatever you want."

Christina took a sip of the red wine and said with a smile: "You are going to make me a fat woman, and you will be responsible if you fail to marry me!"

Qin Yang grinned and said, "Responsible, I'm responsible for sending you to the slaughterhouse."

At the end of the halftime break, Peterson in a suit and leather shoes stepped onto the auction stage with confidence. He cleared his throat with a low cough twice, and said with a heavy face: "Gentlemen and ladies, I have a very sad news for you all." , our auctioneer Mr. Barry slipped in the bathroom during the half-time break, and has now been sent to the hospital, so tonight's auction can't go on, everyone should leave!"

The opening remarks made the auction participants in the audience confused, but no one got up from their seats. At this moment, time seemed to stop flowing, and the auction site was completely silent.

Peterson coughed twice again to break the silence of the scene, and said: "I happened to pass by Old Barry before he was carried on a stretcher into the ambulance, and he grabbed my hand and begged me to continue on his behalf. Hosting the auction, I'm a soft-hearted person, I agreed on the spur of the moment, so tonight's auction can still be played, before the auction starts, I want to declare that I am a substitute, if there is anything that can't be done well Please be patient with me.”

I have to say that this guy is a master at creating an atmosphere. A few unique opening remarks aroused the interest of all the participants again, and many people sat up straight and waited for the next article.

"Old Barry has already photographed [-] items in the first half, and my substitute can't be too far behind. Let me first disclose a gossip. A heavyweight baby is about to debut. Take two items to warm up. The heavyweight Baby is coming soon..."

Peterson's hosting skills are quite solid, and Barry's style is completely different from the old Barry's. One is humorous and outrageous, and the other is mature and stable. It can be said that they are going to two extremes, but the auction participants in the audience prefer the former.

The first lot in the second half was an antique long sword from the Middle Ages, which belonged to a certain noble knight. 200 million were captured.

Two staff members carried the second lot to the stage. It was not small, and it was completely covered by a piece of red silk cloth. If you don't uncover the silk cloth, you will never know what it is under the stage?
