interstellar curator
Chapter 57
The venue of the entire big auction is like an inverted cone, and Luo's box is on the top floor of the cone, overlooking the rhombus-shaped auction display stand at the bottom.This overlooking sight gives people a sense of superiority overlooking all living beings.
"It's so far away, can't it be that I can only watch the video on the light screen, so what's the point of watching the scene, I can just use the wrist access device." A Ke sat in the back and complained to Kudos with a small mouth.
Kudos shook his head with a smile, "That's not what I said, no matter what, I have to take a lot today, otherwise I can't participate in the auction in the next two days."
"Why?" Ake looked at Kudos curiously, "Didn't you say that you can come to the auction if you have a box?"
"The main thing is to determine whether you have the strength to participate in the auction. Those who really want to participate in the big auction will buy some antiques that will be auctioned or treasures handed down from generation to generation that will be auctioned today, but most of them just come to grow today. It’s all about gaining knowledge. Speaking of which, what are you planning to shoot?” Kudos asked A Ke openly, and this was also helping his captain to find out what his sweetheart liked.
"I don't know very well, but our captain seems to be very interested in a set of animal skin music scores from ancient times." A Ke is a simple child, and basically always answers what others ask, especially when the other party is a friend she is familiar with when.
"Oh~, that's something of great academic value." It seems that this is great news. It seems that the captain is still very discerning. It's not something that ordinary people would be interested in, but probably someone who would be interested in it. They are all old scholars.
"You want 'Praise of the Beast God'?" Luo heard the conversation behind him, and looked at Gu Xi who was looking around with wide eyes.
"It's okay, but I think that the things recorded by the animal skin should not only be music scores, but also other things. I just want to study it." Gu Xi generously admitted, "Actually, it's mainly because I think Not many people would snatch that thing from me, after all, only those who are academically obsessed with it would want to take it back.”
"Some people like to be arty." Now some emerging nobles or aristocratic families like to buy some artworks or antiques to take back, not only to decorate their appearance, but to make themselves look more sophisticated.
Gu Xi shrugged his shoulders, expressing that he understood Luo's meaning. This kind of thing happens everywhere. It seems that he has heard of some people in his previous life. Some people will buy hardcover sets of books and put them in the office, but they may not read them in their entire lives.

On the auction stage, it suddenly went dark, and three beams of soft white light hit the middle of the booth, and an elevator platform slowly rose from the ground. There stood a very coquettish person. The era is also an era that advocates special aesthetics. Many men like makeup and long hair, while many women like short hair and cold weapons. Therefore, Guxi has never been able to distinguish a person's gender from a distance, just like now, Guxi Xi was not sure if this alluring person was a man or a woman.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 120th Grand Auction. This time we will auction a total of 650 numbered items, which will be divided into three parts: "Flourishing Age Collection", "Love and Love", and "Cosmic Treasures" , the auction that will be held today is the "Prosperity Collection" series consisting of [-] lots."
It has to be said that even the voice of a coquettish person has a hint of charm. Gu Xi can already be sure in his heart that the other party is a lady. With such a soft and luxurious voice, he must be a well-educated woman from an aristocratic family.
Although Gu Xi is a so-called nobleman, and his ancestors had titles, Gu Xi has always held a respectful attitude towards so-called noble families and nobles from the bottom of his heart, because they often represent endless troubles, and many 'The Proud Son of Heaven'.
However, Gu Xi also knew that it was really unrealistic for him not to be in contact with these aristocratic families and nobles in his life.
"Athoraya Bitusduo, a master auctioneer and appraiser." Luo's voice was light, but he called back Guxi's wandering thoughts.
Gu Xi tilted his head and looked at Luo, "Bitus is a surname with a long history. It is said that their family tree can be traced back to ancient times." Gu Xi's tone was filled with a trace of enthusiasm for inquiry, "I really want to see Looking at the family tree of their family, I heard that there is a history that was missing in ancient times."
"Grandmaster-level appraisers can read it." In fact, people from the Bitusduo family can also watch it. Even their son-in-law and daughter-in-law have the right to watch the copy, but it seems that Gu Xi doesn't need to know about it, even if he knows It's all futile, Luo thought silently in his heart.
"Grandmaster level? That's a bit difficult, but it's not impossible." Gu Xi lowered his head, frowning and thinking, but he didn't see the strange color flashing in Luo's eyes, so Gu Xi didn't know , I was once again misled by the people around me.
"Let's start today's first auction, the portrait of Sextuto numbered 1200. The starting price is [-] purple gold coins, and the minimum price will be increased by [-] purple gold coins each time the placard is raised." Asoraya's voice had a kind of Purely seductive, people who hear his voice will unconsciously follow the words of the other party.However, this kind of temptation is only effective for some people who are not firm in heart, and it really doesn't have much effect on those who are firm in heart. At least Gu Xi doesn't think there is anything worth selling in that painting.
But obviously not everyone has the same idea as Gu Xi, instead, many people participated in the bidding. In the end, three companies competed until the price soared to [-] purple gold coins, before being photographed by a person in a middle box. Gu Xi noticed the number of the box, and coincidentally, that box was the one that Gu Xi sold.
"The top-grade sable fur of the Zhongyue galaxy, numbered 1119, has the effect of refreshing the owner and immunizing against various diseases. The starting price is [-] purple gold coins. The starting price is now, and the minimum price increase is [-] purple gold coins. .” …
"The statue of the Virgin in the middle period of Dalk, No. 1005, is the only statue of the Madonna left by the great sculptor Dalk. The starting price is [-] purple gold coins, and the bidding starts now."
"One hundred thousand and one thousand." Just as Gu Xi was about to sell, the auction price was displayed in a box downstairs. Gu Xi looked at the number of the box. It seemed that the guy had already taken three lots, and now he still paid for it. Shoot, it's really rich.
Just when Guxi was thinking wildly, the auction price had risen to 11. Guxi felt that this was a very good opportunity. After all, he needed to win a lot in order to participate in tomorrow's or even the day after tomorrow's auction. Among the many auction items today, this statue of the Virgin Mary is one of the few that Guxi thinks is worth taking pictures, and it will not be very expensive. After all, Guxi is not a rich "second generation ancestor". In a sense, he is indeed a 'second ancestor'.
"13." Gu Xi immediately added [-] purple gold coins. This way, he could scare off some competitors who were not financially strong. Obviously, the effect was good. In the end, only Gu Xi and the one who bid at the beginning were left. people.
"14." Apparently, the other party was also determined to get this statue, so he kept increasing the price. Not to be outdone, Gu Xi immediately increased the price to another height.
"16." Gu Xi was very curious, why the person in that box likes to take pictures so much, and they are all works of art. Could it be that the other party is a fanatical art lover?But even so, the way the other party increases the price is too tough, every time they increase the price by at least twice as much as others, as if they have a grudge against money.
"17."
"17."
"17."
"18."
"18."
......
In the end, Gu Xi had no choice but to give up the statue of the Virgin at 25 yuan. Although he didn't really want the statue of the Virgin, Gu Xi still felt very aggrieved.
"It's not worth it." Luo said to Gu Xi after hearing the final offer.
Gu Xi also knew that the other party was trying to comfort him, but what Luo said was not bad, the statue of the Virgin Mary was actually only worth 20, and 25 was actually not worth it at all, so it was not a bad loss for him.But Gu Xi was a little unwilling. After all, this was his first time participating in an auction, and it ended in failure. It was really shocking.
"The current auction is a tribute to the Beast God. The number is 820. The starting price is 11. The starting price will start now." I don't know if it's an illusion, but Gu Xi feels that Asolaya's voice has a little nostalgia , but soon Gu Xi put this doubt aside, because 'Praise of the Beast God' was one of his main goals.
"11." Gu Xi began to bid. Gu Xi felt that a higher auction price could shorten the auction time, so that Gu Xi would not have to think about how much money he spent. Compared with auctions, Gu Xi Xi prefers to go to the flea market to find treasures, because that will save a lot of money, but here is basically throwing money.
"11."
"11."
"11."
"12."
......
The competition was not very fierce, Guxi guessed right, not many people were interested in 'Praise of the Beast God', and finally Guxi took a photo of 'Praise of the Beast God' at a price of 15.
"There are so many auctions, but the price still hasn't gone up much. Usually, the price of the auction item at this time has long been in the millions." Kudos looked at the transaction price in the future, and it was a bit like an auction price that was going to be cold. , very puzzled.
"That's because there are no good things." Ace looked up at him, "There are good things on the auction list, and the first ones are for some not very rich people to qualify for the next auction Yes, it seems that there will be a lot of lots to be auctioned tomorrow."
......
"The following is the last auction item in the 'Flourishing Age Collection' series of this auction, the ancient book "Desolate Prelude", a manuscript from the ancient times, No. 0650, the starting price is 230 million, and the starting price starts now."
"240."
"240."
"250."
"270."
"290."
"390."
Luo made a bid, and immediately added a full 100 million with a big hand. Everyone in the audience was shocked. No one thought that someone really added 100 million all at once.According to the rules of the big auction house, if someone adds 100 million all at once, then the subsequent people will have to add at least 100 million every time they raise their cards.
"500 million." An extremely high number popped up, Gu Xi noticed the number, and it turned out to be the guy who snatched his statue of the Virgin Mary.
"700 million." Gu Xi twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at Luo with a question of 'are you throwing away money?'.But the other party looked at him very seriously, with a trace of affirmation in tears, obviously Luo was throwing money.
"800 million." The other party obviously didn't intend to give up, so 800 million just yelled out lightly.
"1000."
At this time, an offer came from another inconspicuous box.
"It's so far away, can't it be that I can only watch the video on the light screen, so what's the point of watching the scene, I can just use the wrist access device." A Ke sat in the back and complained to Kudos with a small mouth.
