Chapter 110 Unexpectedly High Price

The first thing to be auctioned was a small tricolor lotus heart bowl from the Tang Dynasty. The asking price is only a thousand or a few hundred increase.

In the end, this small Tang Sancai lotus heart bowl was sold for 9000 yuan, and the auction was not unsuccessful. The price rose by nearly two-fifths, which is a very good start.

Xu Wei also participated in several auctions, but those were small auctions or private auctions. This was the first time such a large antique auction.

"The current market price of that small bowl is [-], right?" Xu Wei asked after looking at the small bowl for a long time.

"Yes, this is the auction. Many people have money these days, and they want to make their homes a bit more cultural and rich. Besides, the antiques in the prosperous times and the gold in the troubled times, now that the country is prosperous and the people are peaceful, the prices of antiques are rising year by year. Now it is Spend a little more, let it go for three or two years, and the price will come back." Speaking of this, Tang Qingyan glanced at Xu You in disgust.

"These new local tyrants don't have much appreciation for antiques. Although the things bought in auction houses are more expensive, they are almost all genuine, and there is no problem with their origin, so they are very safe."

Xu You nodded clearly, "When will it be my turn?"

"Wait for two more, why are you in a hurry, the further back this lot is, the more valuable it is, and the higher the transaction price." Tang Qingyan glanced at his little cousin with a look of "you are really an amateur", Then turn your attention back to the auction site.

The two stayed in a hidden private room on the second floor of the auction venue. It was not a big place, but they could see the entire venue.

The second auction item is a silver bowl from Wensiyuan in the Tang Dynasty. Wensiyuan was a royal unit specializing in the production of gold and silver utensils in the Tang Dynasty.

The starting price of this silver bowl was 11, and the final price was [-]. It was purchased by a coal boss who seemed to be very wealthy.

Afterwards, there were two relatively ordinary items that did not attract the attention of most people, but were sold at a price that was not much higher than the low price.

Tang Qingyan has been watching the auction very calmly. He did not show dissatisfaction with the fact that the two lots did not attract people's purchases, but after the next lot was brought to the stage, the whole person's momentum changed.

"The following is the auction of a group of Tang mirrors."

Although the auctioneer looks a little more enchanting, but when he works, he can stir up the atmosphere of the scene very much.

"As we all know, in the Tang Dynasty, bronze mirror craftsmanship entered a very prosperous period, and even people in the Tang Dynasty had a festival dedicated to gifting mirrors, the "Golden Mirror Festival for Thousand Years".

Tang mirrors have broken through the Han-style mirrors in terms of shape, and there are sunflower mirrors, rhombus mirrors, and Fangya mirrors.In addition to the traditional decorations of auspicious animals, birds and animals, portraits, inscriptions, etc., the patterns also add sea animal grape patterns and polo playing patterns that express Western themes.

After the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, flower decorations were mostly used as auspicious patterns.The decoration content is free and unrestrained, fresh and lively, showing the vigorous and upward spiritual outlook of the Tang Empire.

Decoration methods include relief, color painting, inlay, and gilding. In the mid-Tang Dynasty, new techniques such as gold and silver flat-off, mother-of-pearl inlay, glaze, and lacquer appeared.

This time our company will auction seven Tang mirrors, including a set of four Tang mirrors, with the representative flowers of spring, summer, autumn and winter, the orchid in the empty valley, the hibiscus in the water, the golden autumn chrysanthemum, and the proud plum as the main decorations, using embossed mother-of-pearl inlay technology production.

The four-sided Tang mirror is auctioned together, with a starting price of 35 yuan, and the auction starts now. "

"36."

"38."

"40."

"50."

……

Xu You looked up at the person who called out 50. It was a young man in a well-fitting suit, with a slightly long hairstyle of artistic youth, holding a phone in his hand, talking to the phone from time to time, and then will increase the price.

"This is the agent." Tang Qingyan moved closer to Xu Wei and explained to Xu Wei.

"As far as I know, he is a representative of a rich man in Wenzhou, who specializes in helping to buy various antiques and artworks. This person himself also has a certain understanding of antiques and has a good eye."

"He is helping the boss to buy things. No wonder. I saw that he didn't hesitate at all when he raised the price. I thought he liked this Tang mirror very much. It turned out that it wasn't his own money." After listening to Xu Wei Tang Qingyan's explanation suddenly dawned on him.

"Do you think there are many people who are rich, young, and willing to spend money on antiques?"

Although Tang Qingyan despised Xu You, he was actually very envious of Xu You in his heart.

He can earn money by himself, and then spend it according to his own mind. Not only no one says he is a prodigal, but some people even say he is an outstanding young man.

"It has risen to 80. It seems that this set of Tang Jing is still very popular." Xu Wei said happily when he heard that someone downstairs offered 80.

"It will go up again. This set of Tang mirrors, our original estimated price was more than 100 million." Tang Qingyan said indifferently, but his clenched right hand betrayed his heart.

"100 million? Tang mirror is now a hot topic?" Tang mirror, as a kind of miscellaneous items, has not been paid much attention. After all, mirrors are something that you can't say you spend a lot of money on now, but in fact thousands of years ago It's just a consumable for an ordinary family, and has no collection value.

"Ordinary Tang mirrors are naturally worthless, but this set of Tang mirrors is different. It comes in a set, and it has a very legendary background, so the price can naturally go up."

At the beginning of the publicity of the auction, Tang Qingyan compiled the discovery process of these antiques into a very legendary story, which was printed on the brochure, which attracted the attention of many people.

Tang Qingyan handed a brochure to Xu Wei and asked him to read it by himself.

Xu Wei took the brochure, turned to the part introducing Tang Jing at the back, and saw the legendary novel written on it, his eyes were straightened, "Too, isn't it too exaggerated?"

The hero who is wise and brave, brave to explore, and has an epic love story has nothing to do with me, right?

"Art comes from life and is higher than life." Tang Qingyan said such a sentence with a serious face, which made Xu Wei suddenly realize that he, the third brother, is quite funny sometimes.

The following auction is still going on, the bidders have raised the price to 110 million, and the number of competitors has changed from seven or eight at the beginning to the current two.

The artistic young man from before didn't dare to raise the price too much now, and every time he bid, he raised it by [-] or [-].

The one who bid with him was a female secretary in a uniform and a milky white suit skirt, looking professional and capable.

The two seemed to know each other, and while bidding, they also said a few words to tease each other. In the end, the capable woman in suit won by virtue of 2 yuan more than the other party. shoot away.

This time, the young literary and artistic youths had a fight with each other, or in other words, the big boss behind the two wanted to compete.

So, after that, the auction of the three Tang mirrors.Entered a white-hot stage.

The two competed with each other and pushed up the price of the mirrors. After that, the transaction prices of the three mirrors became higher and higher, and even when the third mirror was auctioned, it was finally sold at a price of 320 million. The youth shoots away.

Xu You stared wide-eyed at the changes below, and couldn't figure it out, how could someone sell at a price several times higher than something worth 60 to [-] yuan.

"This is where the auction house can make money." Tang Qingyan patted Xu Wei on the shoulder, "So I said, come to me if you want to sell things in the future, it's definitely worth the money."

"It's as if you don't earn a commission." Xu You glanced at Tang Qingyan contemptuously, and then continued to pay attention to the auction situation below.

"I also have to raise people to pay taxes, okay?" Tang Qingyan said pretending to be angry just like Xu Wei had waited.

The next auction is a set of wine utensils. This is Xu You's least favorite set of porcelain. Because it is really short of money, it is taken out and handed over to Tang Qingyan for auction.

There are different utensils for storing wine, serving wine, serving wine, and drinking wine, and these four kinds of wine utensils are combined into one set.

The whole wine set is made of celadon, shaped like graceful green lotuses, quietly opening in the water, which has a special style.

In addition, Xu You also has a set of fishing in the West Lake, and a set of hundreds of sons and grandchildren.In terms of workmanship and shape, it is better than this set of Qinglian.

The starting price of this wine set was 150 million, and then there were more than a dozen participants competing for the auction.

In Xu Wei's view, porcelain is a popular collection of antiques, and it is normal for the final transaction price to be higher, after all, there is a lot of room for appreciation of porcelain.

Therefore, when the price soared to 230 million, Xu Wei didn't feel much, but felt that the price was more reasonable. When the price rose to 320 million, Xu Wei felt that he had really earned this time. Money should be able to make Chen Zhibei's biological experiments last for a while longer.

But the price is still rising, one rose to 440 million, and its rising speed slowed down until 460 million, the hammer was sold.

This time, it was no longer Xu Wei who was excited, even Tang Qingyan was very excited.

Xu You was excited because he had earned a lot of money.

And Tang Qingyan was excited because the sum of the transaction prices from the beginning of the auction to the present has been higher than any previous auction.

Because of the base of the wine set, when the tea set, which was a bit more exquisite than the wine set, came on stage, it caused another frantic rush from the crowd.

The starting price was 190 yuan, and the transaction price was 520 million yuan, far exceeding Xu Wei's expectations.

After the tea set, there is today's finale collection, the golden statues of the Eighteen Arhats.

On Xu You's day, the most important thing is to wait for this lot to be auctioned, and then he can distribute the money to two or three people.

Anderson and Bell said otherwise, but the little fatty Zhou Yu has a good relationship with him, so he can't let the other party suffer.

Downstairs, the enchanting auctioneer was talking about the origin of the lot. Upstairs, Xu Wei was chatting with Tang Qingyan about some homework in order to relieve tension.

"How about the business I introduced to you?" Xu You asked the comrade-in-arms couple he met when he went on a trip with Chen Zhibei a week ago.

"You mean the dragon tank? Don't say it. I made the final calculation for your sake. After deducting various expenses, Chen Zhibei's comrade-in-arms finally got 720 million."

"So much?" Xu Wei looked at Tang Qingyan in surprise. After all, he guessed based on the market price before that it would take several years to reach this price.

"Fortunately, he met two filthy ones, and wanted to buy them back as some kind of feng shui magic weapon. I don't know much about feng shui. Anyway, he met two big heads and bought more than 800 million yuan."

Speaking of this, Tang Qingyan is also very proud, "I'm thinking, if I have a chance in the future, I will hold a special session on Fengshui Magical Artifacts. Maybe something worth a million or so will allow me to sell it for a price of more than 1000 million."

Xu You and Tang Qingyan were talking nonsense above, and the fierce bidding below was also at its most intense stage.

Three parties compete, one is the representatives of the Buddhist world in the north, the other is the pious believers in the south, and the third is the religious figures in Southeast Asia.
