Chapter 47 (1/2)
The auction for this antique ”Bagua mirror” began. The starting price was 150000. At the beginning, there was no bidding.
This kind of ”eight trigrams mirror” looks evil to ordinary people and is not suitable for collecting works. For example, the eight trigrams mirror hung at the door of some families is generally used to counter evil spirits. Therefore, under normal circumstances, we don't buy this kind of thing.
When the auctioneer shouted for the second time and thought that this work was going to be sold, a person lazily started bidding.
”150000!”
”150000 for the first time!”
”150000 second time!”
When someone continued to follow the auction, he was afraid of shouting 300000 at the starting price. Pan Sheng said in Xiao Chen's ear, ”this may be the seller's trust.”
However, there is no way. If you want to buy it, you can only continue bidding.
”Pan Shao, as long as I win it within a million, I will!” Xiao Chen said.
Soon, more people followed the auction. When it was 950000, it finally stopped. Pan Sheng helped Xiao Chen win it as he wished.
However, in Pan Sheng's opinion, it is not worth the price at all.
For the next curios, when the auction continued, Xiao Chen looked through the past with perspective eyes and found that there was really a similar aura around those curios, just more or less.
Until the 18th antique work, that is, Xiao Chen's lucky pig, soon, when the host put it on the table, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Such a work, not to mention that it contains gold, but also has exquisite workmanship, especially the layer of brass crossing outside to cover up the gold inside, as well as the two pig eyes on it. On the surface, it looks like ordinary stones. In fact, it is also two good night pearls.
Xiao Chen had noticed this one for a long time, but he didn't know the price of the pearl that night. Moreover, he didn't scratch it with a knife, so ordinary people don't know when they pick it up. However, the testing instrument of the staff at the auction just found that there are actually two rare night pearls.
Now when the auctioneer said it, everyone was very surprised.
Pan Sheng, in particular, didn't expect that there were jewelry hidden in it. Isn't that more valuable?
Even though the two night pearls are only the size of a thumb finger at most, there are not many night pearls, especially rare ones.
”It seems that it's really a pearl of the night. I'm also interested.” Pan Sheng said.
I knew it was like this. Pan Sheng felt that he wanted his father to pay a high price to win Xiao Chen's antique. Now so many people are bidding, I'm afraid he won't bid high enough at that time.
”Doctor Xiao, it seems that I've gone astray. I thought it was gold. Unexpectedly, there was a night pearl in it. Moreover, it was the pig eye of the lucky pig. It was really a treasure.”
”Pan Shao, you don't have to rob me. I want it.” Zhou Shihao said.
However, not far away, Liu GUI looked at Xiao Chen from time to time, and next to him sat a young master who looked equally unusual.
The auctioneer hasn't started bidding yet. When he was introduced there, at this time, a young man from Liu GUI came over, looked at Xiao Chen and said, ”you are the owner of the antique. Just now we Zhang Shao said that Zhang Shao liked it. Now withdraw and Zhang Shao bought it privately.”
”Why should I withdraw? I don't know Master Zhang at all! ” Xiao Chen said directly.
”Then you will know you regret it.” Originally, Liu GUI wanted to buy the lucky pig from Xiao Chen and give it to young master Zhang.
Unexpectedly, young master Zhang also came to the auction today. Moreover, he saw this lucky pig at first sight, so he had to take it down anyway.
When he learned that the antique was Xiao Chen, the other party called his little brother over.
Xiao Chen has never been afraid of things. He doesn't care about Master Zhang and Master Zhu.
”Doctor Xiao, next to Liu GUI is young master Zhang. His family is the largest family in Binhai. There are some sources, so you should be careful.”
