C40 (1/2)
Zhang Feng promised him without a doubt. He crawled up from the bed, washed his face and rinsed his mouth, then followed the Elder Bai out for breakfast.
Because it was the second day, everyone rested for half an hour after breakfast before the auction officially began.
Zhang Feng and Elder Bai were still seated at their original seats, but the people beside them had a change to them. Zhang Yun was also participating in the auction, and he was sitting right beside them.
Zhang Feng was very surprised in his heart. Even if Zhang Yun were to participate, it wouldn't be a problem, but shouldn't he be sitting next to Elder Bai? Why was he sitting next to him now?
Zhang Feng vaguely felt that something was not right. He wanted to lean to the side, but it was obvious that there was no place for him to go.
”Zhang Feng, how was it? Did you get anything yesterday?” Zhang Yun found a topic to talk and looked at Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng also didn't know why Zhang Yun wanted to get close to him. He felt that something wasn't right, but there was a look of regret on his face, ”No, the price yesterday was just too high, and it's really too unbearable. I thought that I could at least take away the five million, but unfortunately, reality is often different from what I imagined!”
”Haha, no need to worry. Today, there are many good and cheap antiques that are absolutely suitable for you. No matter what price you bid for, I'm sure you will succeed.” Zhang Yun laughed as he patted Zhang Feng's shoulder.
Zhang Feng laughed, and did not speak further, he grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started to eat.
Ka ka ka!
In the entire auction, only Zhang Feng made a sound as if he was eating a melon seed, and everyone's eyes unconsciously looked at Zhang Feng, frowning.
”Where did this idiot come from?” You don't even know the rules of the auction? Such a person dared to come to the auction venue? ”How laughable.”
”That's right, I thought it was some rookie. It took him a long time to become a country bumpkin who doesn't know anything. Furthermore, he's eating melon seeds at the venue. Could it be that he doesn't even know about decorations?”
The mocking voices that came from above all entered Zhang Feng's ears, causing his face to change between red and white.
”Decor? This was originally meant for everyone to eat. The reason why they chose the melon seeds was to let everyone's mood relax a little. This is the best way to relax. ” Zhang Yun explained from the side, as if he wanted to cover up Zhang Feng's awkwardness and give him a way out.
Zhang Feng laughed, but he felt too embarrassed to eat it, so he placed the melon seeds back to the table and stopped talking.
Everyone, good morning, welcome to our auction venue so early. This morning, we have a total of ten pieces, and ten pieces in the afternoon, we will definitely not let you down. Let's cut the crap now, now take out our first treasure, the Jade Coral! The host was still shouting.
This time, the Jade Coral was not worth much. The starting price was only fifty thousand dollars, and every time he raised the board, it was only ten thousand dollars.
Zhang Feng wasn't interested in the slightest. He only glanced at it once, then lowered his head and drank his tea.
Elder Bai and Zhang Feng also cooperated very well as they continued to exchange toasts with each other while at the end, they clapped extremely happily as the two of them drank until they were satisfied.
In the end, the jade coral was auctioned off for one hundred and twenty thousand gold coins.
The second item is a treasure that we accidentally obtained this time around. Because we were unable to deduce its value, we have temporarily placed it in the second position, the Square Cauldron made from green jade. According to the year, it should have been made from the Tang Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty. The host pointed at the Square Cauldron behind them, clearly not interested either.
Zhang Feng raised his head and looked at the Square Cauldron. The Square Cauldron's texture was coarse and its color was dark.
Elder Bai didn't even raise his head as he continued to lower his head to drink his tea. His eyes seemed to look in Zhang Yun's direction.
With Zhang Yun by his side, Zhang Feng did not dare to speak to Elder Bai for long.
”Why is this crap brought up?” It's not worth much at all, and it's still $170,000. I don't think it's even worth 17, so why not that Jade Coral just now, hurry up and take it, who wants it! ”
”That's right, it's only the second day, why are your things already falling so low? Hurry up and take them away, don't play around here, don't think it's shameful. Everyone here is an old hand at collecting antiques, who do you think would want such a crappy thing?”
Waves of dissatisfied voices came from behind, obviously displeased with this Square Cauldron.
Zhang Feng raised his head to look. The Square Cauldron was indeed very inconspicuous, there was no place like before, even Zhang Feng felt that it was not worth much.
However, Zhang Feng had gotten used to wanting to see the age of this antique.
But when Zhang Feng looked over, Zhang Feng realized something. The Square Cauldron was emitting a circle of green light, looking like it was surrounded by hundreds of circles, it should be a treasure that belonged to the Tang Dynasty's to the Yuan Dynasty.
However, Zhang Feng realized that a pure white light was being emitted from the belly of the Square Cauldron. Zhang Feng looked carefully, but he could not see any light circles around it.
”Could it be that this Square Cauldron can hide the light of something? Or should I say … ”
Zhang Feng raised his head and looked at it. The light reflected off from it just happened to shine on the Square Cauldron.
”Could it be that the light reflected from the lamp made it look like there really was something inside?” Zhang Feng muttered to himself in his heart, in such a long period of time, he did not make a mistake. Whether it was the painting or the Tianhuang Stone, he could see them all clearly, but why could he not see what this thing was now?
It must be an illusion.
