Chapter 414

Chalcedony is one of the oldest jade varieties in human history. It appeared as an ornament as early as 5000 years ago and has lasted for generations. Among them, carnelian is widely accepted as a gem with strong religious color. It has fine texture, pure color and hardness, and its sound is crisp and melodious when tapped gently. Its name comes from the Latin 'carne' (flesh and blood), implying its dazzling orange color, Chinese people call it red chalcedony, or blood chalcedony! "

Everyone listened attentively.

A piece of chalcedony is neither more precious than jadeite nor more dazzling than diamond. The price is relatively cheap. It is reasonable that this kind of thing should not appear at such a high-standard auction site.

Unless, this chalcedony has a great origin, which has exceeded the inherent value of the object itself and is endowed with a higher sense of collection value.

Sure enough——

"It is said that the jade seal of Muhammad, the king of the Arab Empire, is an engraved red chalcedony with a silver ring! And the red chalcedony in front of him is dug in Muhammad's tomb!"

Jiang Fuyue looked at the auction table through the special glass in the private room.

"The reserve price is 3 million US dollars, and the bid price is no less than 300000 each time. Bidding - start!"

Without waiting for a few waves of warm-up in the hall, the red bidding light flashed in the private room on the second floor, and Lou Ming raised his card first.

No one in the hall expected that the private room would sell so quickly, and Lou Mingyue was the one who liked to do the "final surprise".

If she likes something at ordinary times, she usually looks on coldly, and then jumps out to increase the price when others' bidding is about to succeed and the hammer is almost settled, giving everyone a startling turn. Today, she is in a hurry

In the private room, Jiang Fuyue asked Liu Sisi, "what do you think?"

Liusisi looked at the thing and pondered for a moment: "it's good-looking, but this thing seems to have been made from the tomb. Is it... Unlucky?"

Jiang Fuyue nodded: "it's unlucky, but..." it doesn't matter.

Robbing Lou Mingxin for something is a joy in itself, no matter what it is, auspicious or unlucky.

"Prepare the brand."

Liusi Si: "ah?"

Jiang Fuyue pulled at the corner of her mouth.

Seeing the action of the private room on the second floor, everyone in the hall stopped thinking. Who dares to rob things with Lou Mingxin?

There is no more money than others. In the end, we can only humiliate ourselves.

Moreover, chalcedony is of low collection value. Apart from its historical accumulation and implication, it is not as cost-effective as collecting a set of jadeite old pit glass.

There are some chicken ribs.

So no one raised a card to bid.

But these people dare not, which does not mean that everyone dare not, for example - private rooms with purple lights.

"Four million." the purple light was bright, and the clear female voice shouted.

It's liusi.

Lou Mingxin continued: "five million."

"Six million... Pounds." liusi shouted casually when it was his turn.

To the outside world, the voice was so lazy that it seemed that the last thing to give was not money, but readily available napkins.

Everyone sighed.

Lou Mingxin: "seven million." no hurry, no impatience.

For a time, it was difficult to guess the victory or defeat.

The crowd was already stunned.

Liusisi: "ten million." omitting the unit, the transition from the established dollar to sterling is a trend of multiple growth in an instant.

"Eleven million." Lou Mingxin's voice is slightly heavy.

Both private rooms ended, but there was only one thing.

Jiang Fuyue winked at Liu Sisi. She was determined to get this thing. It doesn't matter whether the money is more or less. What she needs most now is money!

"Twenty million!" liusi said directly.

Obviously, there is no patience here to deal with Lou Mingxin and plan to make a quick decision, directly jumping from 11 million to 20 million.

Everyone sighed for a broken chalcedony?

What is a rich man? See? This is it!

A thing with a reserve price of $3 million was instantly called ￡ 20 million, more than ten times.

Lou Mingxin's face was very ugly. The male secretary stood aside and dared not breathe more.

Until it's ready to hammer outside——

"Twenty million pounds once... Twenty million pounds twice..."

Lou Mingxin grits his teeth, and the Secretary sees the tangle in her eyes clearly.

But in the end, Lou Mingxin: "... Just."

It's not that there's nothing else to shoot except this one.

"Twenty million pounds three times! Deal!"

Bang——

set the tune with one beat of the gong -- give the final word.

"Congratulations! The silver ring and the carved red chalcedony seal were taken by Yufeng group!"

The applause thundered for a long time.

Lou Mingxin gritted his teeth, glanced at the bottom of his eyes, and told the male secretary: "go and find out who the Yufeng group is..."

It's like being against her!

……

Purple light private room.

The waiter bowed in with a tray, a low eyebrow and a nod.

The tray happened to be the red chalcedony seal on the stage just now.

"This is what you just got from the auction. Please accept it."

Ignoring the white gloves handed over by the waiter, Jiang Fuyue directly reached out and took the exquisitely carved red chalcedony into the palm of her hand, played for a moment, and then handed it to Liu Sisi, "look, it doesn't seem to be very fun."

The waiter's eyelids jumped and looked at the priceless red chalcedony being played by a man as a toy, and then casually threw it to his own woman?

This, simply do not take money as money!

An outsider looked at him with a thrill. What if he fell?

That's 20 million pounds! My father!

No matter how reliable Jiang Fu moon is, the waiter can only make complaints about himself in his heart. At the moment, he has to raise his smiling face. Humbly, he asks, "are you qualified?"

"OK."

"Would you like to swipe your card or check?"

There is no need for Jiang Fuyue to speak at all. Liu Sisi has handed in the 20 million check already prepared, and the signature of "Jiang" is smooth and flying, which is very good-looking.

"OK." the waiter bowed down.

The first auction item was sold at a sky high price of 20 million pounds. Everyone also watched a "battle" between private rooms and private rooms for free.

It doesn't matter whether there is any harvest in today's auction. It's more interesting to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, isn't it?

Jiang Fuyue sat on the leather sofa in the private room. Her commanding posture was enough to have a panoramic view of any wind and grass in the hall, but the people downstairs could not see the situation in the private room.

Inequity of course exists justifiably and is accepted and observed by all.

"Shall we shoot next?" liusi asked.

"It depends."

At this time, the hall has sent a second auction.

Xu's voice could not hide the thrill of excitement because of the high price of chalcedony: "next, please have the second auction item..."

As soon as the voice fell, the beautiful master of ceremonies dressed in cheongsam offered a tray.

"As we all know, porcelain is the national treasure of China, and blue and white porcelain is the best. But among the blue and white porcelain, there are 369 grades, of which yuan blue and white is the best. This one on the stage is the downhill picture pot of Yuan blue and white ghost millet jointly certified by 72 international treasure appraisers."

It's yuan Qinghua!

Most of you are Chinese. When you hear that it's such a baby, you suddenly feel cold.

It is worthy of being a ktikin level auction. Two auctions in a row are superior. Any one can pick the beam alone.

"... the main decoration of the tank body is the" picture of Guiguzi going down the mountain ", which describes the story of Sun Bin's master, Guiguzi, who promised to go down the mountain to rescue the famous Qi generals Sun Bin and Dugu Chen trapped by the state of Yan at the repeated request of the state envoy of the state of Qi Su Dai. The artifact was sold for ￡ 14 million at the auction of" Chinese ceramics, exquisite crafts and export handicrafts "held by Christie's in London on July 12, 2005 It was 15.688 million pounds, equivalent to about 230 million yuan, setting the highest auction record of Chinese art in the world at that time. "

"Now, it's a rare opportunity for the good product to reappear! The reserve price is 20 million pounds, and each increase shall not be less than 500000!"

"Next, bidding begins -"

"21 million." at the leftmost position in the third row of the hall, someone took the lead in raising cards.

This reserve price has made most people retreat from difficulties, so the bidding progress is not fast, or even slow and cautious.

Until it reached more than 30 million.

"32 million once, 32 million twice, 32 million..."

"40 million." the voice came from Lou Mingxin private room.

WOW——

"Another shot!"

"I'm sorry to miss chalcedony. Mr. Lou is trying to pull back a game?"

"It seems that the situation is inevitable..."

"Do you think Yufeng group will continue to bid this time?"
