Su Xiaofan checked the information before. Before today's auction, the highest auction price of ancient coins was 7.47 million.
In other words, today's auction has created a history, raising the upper limit of the auction price of ancient coins by more than 30 million.
Although I dare not say that there will be no successor, this price is definitely unprecedented, and based on Su Xiaofan's thinking, it will be difficult for any ancient coin auction to surpass this price in the future.
"Xiaofan, you're so prosperous!" Zheng Dagang spent a lot of effort to suppress the cheers on his lips.
The previous seven ancient coins were sold for 28 million, and the last one was sold for a record-breaking 38 million.
The eight ancient coins before and after add up to a total of 66 million. Even if the 4% commission is removed, the total is 63.36 million, which is far beyond the expectations of Su Xiaofan and Zheng Dagang.
Before, the company only sold two magic weapons and made a profit of 20 million. Brother Gang felt a little nervous holding the money because he couldn't help at all.
But this time it was different. The entire auction was negotiated between Brother Gang and the auction house. Just talking about business at the Yanjing wine table made me confused several times. Brother Gang still put in a lot of effort.
So Brother Gang can take the 20% dividend with peace of mind when he comes back.
Thinking that he could get more than ten million in one auction, Brother Gang couldn't help but feel excited. He wished that Su Xiaofan would go shopping for some antiques so that he could be of some use.
There was just such a special ancient coin auction in the morning. After the auction, except for the buyers who had to go through the formalities, the rest of the people dispersed.
"Master, Uncle Jing, thank you very much this time."
Su Xiaofan and Zheng Dagang, who had been waiting outside the hotel, met Uncle Jing and Aunt Mei. Jing Shizhen had so many friends that it took a long time to say goodbye inside.
"I have to congratulate you both."
Jing Shizhen looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "You can do it. This is a wave of fattening, and you have also made a name for yourself. It should be easy to negotiate commissions with the auction house in the future."
Just now, Jing Shizhen had a few words with the senior management of the auction house and pointed out that Zheng Dagang was his junior and asked them to take more care of him in the future. Presumably, the other party would also give him some face when negotiating commissions in the future.
"Hehe, Uncle Jing is still famous, so he raised the price with this move."
Zheng Dagang chuckled. Today he has seen Uncle Jing's reputation. He almost raised the price of the Zhining Yuanbao by one person.
In addition, the auctioneer put the name of King Qian on the Zhining Yuanbao, which immediately made the buyers in the venue go crazy.
Those who can participate in this special auction of ancient coins must be a businessman with a net worth of over 100 million.
The businessmen here in Xiangjiang are particularly particular about Feng Shui. Their businessmen attach great importance to the word money. Adding a king after money makes it even more inevitable.
As for the sky-high price of 38 million, Jing Shizhen felt it was normal.
Because here in Xiangjiang, a license plate with an auspicious number can fetch 26 million, let alone one with a better meaning.
"Come on, come home with me and have lunch together."
A business car parked in front of the hotel, here to pick up Uncle Jing.
Yesterday, Uncle Jing just made a breakthrough. He didn't even have a servant at home, so he didn't keep Su Xiaofan. Today, the chef, nanny, driver, etc. all came back, so he naturally wanted to treat his disciple to a meal.
Uncle Jing’s family dinner seemed simple, but in fact the dishes were very expensive.
Not to mention the shark fin soup, Uncle Jing actually brought out a few California red abalones. Each of these things weighs three or four kilograms. Usually they are shared by multiple people, but in Uncle Jing's place, it is naturally one for each person.
Su Xiaofan, Uncle Jing and Aunt Mei, had no problem eating a California red abalone, but it made Brother Gang so full that he couldn't even hold his breath, and his belly was almost bursting.
"Do you have another auction tomorrow?"
After the meal, several people sat in the living room and drank tea. Aunt Mei did not ask the nanny to pour tea, but poured tea for them herself.
"Well, there are also wooden bowls from the Qing Dynasty."
Su Xiaofan nodded and said: "Master, you don't need to go over for this. Just take as many pictures as you can."
The auction of Guquan's famous treasures has far exceeded the expectations of Su Xiaofan and Zheng Dagang. Even if the price of the wooden bowl is a little lower, both of them can still accept it.
Moreover, Su Xiaofan didn't plan to attend the auction tomorrow. Brother Gang was going to Ao Island to see the world. Su Xiaofan still wanted to go home early. He was really worried that the tiger cat would cause some trouble.
"Want to leave Xiangjiang?" Jing Shizhen looked at Su Xiaofan, "It's rare to come out once, why don't you stay for a few more days?"
"Master, Duobao is still at home." Su Xiaofan smiled bitterly, raising a pet now is like raising a child.
No, raising a tiger cat is more troublesome than raising a child. The child can be taken care of by others for a few days, but the tiger cat cannot be taken care of. No one else except Su Xiaofan can take care of it at all.
"That's true, then you should go back first."
Jing Shizhen nodded and said: "I guess the money from the auction house will not be sent to you so quickly. If you need money, please let the master know."
Jing Shizhen has been working hard to make money over the years. In fact, the main reason is that he wants to buy an inner elixir from an extraordinary creature. Jing Shizhen offered one billion more than ten years ago, but he was unable to receive it.
According to Jing Shizhen's idea, if one billion doesn't work, then two billion. There will always be people who are tempted by money.
But before he could bid for it again, he got an inner elixir, so now Jing Shizhen's desire to make money is not that strong.
"We will go to Ao Island for a day or two, and then return to Luochuan."
In front of Master, Su Xiaofan has nothing to hide. It is normal for young people to go and gain experience.
"Well, let's go have some fun."
Jing Shizhen said: "Small gambling will make you happy, big gambling will ruin your fortune. You must control the balance between them. Don't go too far."
"Especially you, don't go too far and don't cause any trouble." Jing Shizhen stared at Su Xiaofan and explained again.
"I haven't gone yet, how can I go too far?"
Su Xiaofan was a little confused. It was said that he usually didn't even play mahjong for one or two yuan, so he should answer Brother Gang if he wanted to.
"Would you like me to say hello and help you arrange a hotel?"
Uncle Jing said: "I have some friendship with Mr. He over there. Although he is no longer here, the daughter who talks to him is the same."
"No, Uncle Jing, we are not going to that casino."
Brother Gang shook his head and said confidently: "Let's go to Xindao. There are many hotels there."
"Remember, it's time to have fun, don't get in trouble."
Jing Shizhen explained again, and after eating, she asked the driver to take the two of them back to the hotel.
After Su Xiaofan and Zheng Dagang discussed it, they had nothing to do in Xiangjiang now, so they simply checked out of the room, took a taxi to the pier, and bought a ferry ticket to Ao Island.
More than an hour later, the two brothers arrived at Ao Island, each pushing a suitcase.
"Where to go?"
Su Xiaofan was trying to catch up, but was fooled by Brother Gang. Naturally, Brother Gang led the team.
"I've made all arrangements, let's go!"
Brother Gang has never been to Ao Island, but he must have done a lot of planning before. After leaving the pier, he took a taxi directly to Taipa Island.
"The famous gambling king is on the main island of Ao Island. The island we came to is a new island. I heard it was reclaimed from the sea."
Standing at the entrance of a magnificent hotel, Brother Gang introduced Su Xiaofan: "Many people come to the new island now because the facilities are good and convenient. The main island is too crowded."
Su Xiaofan didn't care where he went. He just came to broaden his horizons and had no interest in gambling.
"This is a capitalist society. Xiangjiang is too dilapidated, and Australia Island is a gold-selling den."
Brother Gang stood at the door of the hotel with an intoxicated look on his face, "Xiao Fan, take some photos for me, and I will send them to Moments later to show to my grandchildren at home!"
"good."
Su Xiaofan did his best and used his mobile phone to take a 360-degree photo of Brother Gang with no blind spots. In particular, he followed Brother Gang's instructions and included the name of the hotel in the photo.
After taking the photo, Su Xiaofan pointed to the two boxes placed next to him and said, "Brother Gang, can you go check in? It's so troublesome for us to push the boxes."
"No need to do it, just come with me. How shameless is it to spend money to stay in a hotel?"
Brother Gang pushed the suitcase into the hotel, came to the luggage storage area, and stored both suitcases inside.
"Come on, let's go play for a while first." Looking at the bustling crowd and the magnificently decorated lobby, Brother Gang was already inexplicably excited.
"Huh? There's something wrong with this place."
Su Xiaofan's six senses are so sensitive, he could feel it as soon as he entered the hotel. The oxygen in the hotel seemed to be a bit too abundant, and the faint smell of perfume also stimulated people's nerves.
Looking at the people around him, almost no one looked tired, and everyone looked in high spirits.
"These casinos really do everything they can."
Su Xiaofan thought for a moment and realized that the casino must have used some kind of equipment to pressurize and oxygenate the hotel.
When there is sufficient oxygen, it is generally difficult for people to feel tired and sleepy, and it is this effect that the hotel is pursuing.
Su Xiaofan had heard before that someone gambled for several days and nights on Ao Island. Based on the situation he felt now, with so much oxygen, it was reasonable to go without sleep for several days and nights.
However, this kind of thing does no harm to people's bodies. If they rest on time, it will actually do some good to people. Su Xiaofan didn't bother to say more.
Following Zheng Dagang, the two entered the casino. Zheng Dagang looked around for a while, and then led Su Xiaofan to a window.
"Xiaofan, take your pass and let's get a membership."
Zheng Dagang took out his pass, then took out a large stack of Hong Kong dollars from his bag, and said: "Exchange the chips for 400,000, twenty for 10,000, forty for 5,000..."
"Brother Gang, what are you doing?"
Su Xiaofan said with some reluctance: "Uncle Jing said, just come and have fun. Are you starting to get drunk before you even play?"
"Also, where did you get so much cash?" Although there are one thousand Hong Kong dollars each, 400,000 is not a small amount, it looks like a thick stack.
"I went out yesterday to find the tour guide to change it for me."
Zheng Dagang said confidently: "Money is bullets. How can we fight a war if we are not prepared?"
"Okay, brother Gang, it's fine if you're happy, but remember what Uncle Jing said, don't get ahead of yourself."
Su Xiaofan laughed bitterly when he heard this. He had never noticed before that Brother Gang had such a big gambling habit.
"Hey, let me tell you, Xiaofan, your brother Gang doesn't have any hobbies. He just likes to gamble a little, but when he is at home, he is often squeezed by that guy Lao Qi."
Su Xiaofan also knew the Lao Qi that Brother Gang was talking about. He was an antique shop owner in Luochuan Antique Market. He was very wealthy. He also liked to play mahjong with Zheng Dagang and the others when he had nothing to do.
"Lao Qina's grandson has been to Ao Island several times and brags about what he does here all day long."
Brother Gang said with a look of displeasure: "Later I found out that my grandson was just a casual guest and had never even entered the VIP room. Let's go to the VIP room to play today and see if I don't spit in his face when we get back."
According to Brother Gang, Lao Qi is not a bad person, but he is a bit talkative. When we play mahjong together, he often says that Brother Gang and the others are local leopards and should be seen in Australia.
It’s okay once or twice, but he couldn’t stand Lao Qi’s use of Ao Island to stimulate people all day long. Brother Gang swore at that time that he would definitely come to Ao Island for a big gamble in his life.
From then on, Brother Gang started to hang out in major forums and learned all about these things about the Aodao Casino and Hotel, and he really put them to use this time.
"Okay, Brother Gang, I'll listen to you."
After hearing what Brother Gang said, Su Xiaofan suddenly wasn't worried about Brother Gang getting involved.
A "big gamble" with two hundred thousand chips per person, Su Xiaofan felt that Brother Gang was simply sober in the world, otherwise there would be some issues with his understanding of the word "big gamble".
The chips in the casino are slightly larger and thicker than the coins they just sold today, and they feel very textured in the hand.
Each person had a stack of 200,000 chips in his hand. Su Xiaofan put most of the chips in his pocket, only holding five or six in his hand, and followed Brother Gang around.
This casino is on the first floor of the hotel and covers a large area.
However, areas are also divided according to the gameplay. Some places are full of slot machines, and some places are card tables and dice players. There are not particularly many people.
Brother Gang looked like an experienced driver and took Su Xiaofan almost in a circle around the entire casino. With some stops and starts, almost an hour passed in this circle.
"Brother Gang, what on earth do you want to play?"
Su Xiaofan couldn't help it any longer. After turning around, he realized that this casino was completely undefended to him.
For example, when playing dice, Su Xiaofan looked at it with his spiritual consciousness. The dice cup could not block the detection of his spiritual consciousness at all, and the points in it could be seen clearly.
The same was true for the card table, but there were too many cards stacked together in such a dense manner that Su Xiaofan didn't bother to look more, but as long as he paid attention, he would definitely be able to see what cards were dealt later.
After seeing through this, Su Xiaofan lost interest. At the same time, he also understood why Uncle Jing told him not to go too far.
To put it bluntly, as long as Su Xiaofan is willing and the casino dares to accept his bet, Su Xiaofan can bankrupt any casino.
This money can come in much faster than opening an antique store, but it won't make you rich, and it will also cause trouble. Su Xiaofan is just for fun at most, and will not touch the bottom line of the casino.
"Let's go to the VIP room!" Brother Gang felt that he had almost figured out the basics, and it was time for him to kill everyone.
Su Xiaofan doesn't care anyway, he can't lose money here even with his eyes closed, because he can cheat in all the games.
Just like the gambling method of betting on the ball wheel, Su Xiaofan can control the ball with his consciousness, and it will land in the multiple area as many times as he wants. As long as he is willing, he can pick up money everywhere without bending down.
The difference between the VIP room and the outside lobby is actually not big. It is not as many people imagine that you need to pay a lot of money to enter.
The VIP room of this casino is just a circled area in the lobby. There are many fewer tables than outside, but there are still various ways to play slot machines and dice.
Su Xiaofan glanced over and knew the difference between the VIP room and the outside. It was just a matter of the size of the bet.
Many gambling tables outside have upper limits, that is, the maximum amount of bets is limited. Some are two thousand, and some are three to five thousand.
The betting amount in the VIP room is much higher. It is very common to bet hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands at a time. It is also common to win or lose tens of millions in a day.
"Brother Gang, what do you want to play?"
After Su Xiaofan came in, he found that there were not many people playing in the VIP room. There were only a few people at the gambling tables. However, there were some non-gambling people standing nearby who were very excited, boasting and gossiping. Su Xiaofan also did it.
Don't understand what they are doing.
"That's baccarat. It's purely about luck and has no technical content."
Zheng Dagang said confidently: "Let's go play Black Jack. It's like the one in the movie. As long as you have good skills, you can win hundreds of thousands in every minute."
"It's up to me."
Su Xiaofan didn't care, but he didn't know where Brother Gang's confidence came from. If the casino could let you win hundreds of thousands every minute, it would have been closed down long ago.
Blackjack is actually blackjack, and the rules are very simple.
Four or eight decks of cards, remove the king and king, and then JOK counts as ten points, and A counts as one or eleven points. The dealer deals the cards, and each person is dealt two bright cards. If you get a J and
An Ace is a blackjack, and the dealer pays twice as much.
If there is no black jack, then the cards are accumulated, blackjack is the largest, and if it exceeds, it will explode.
For example, if you get a Jack, it counts as 10 points, and then you get a 2, which adds up to 12 points. If you ask for another one, which is a 10, then the accumulated points will be 22 points.
The dealer must have cards below 16 points, but players are free to take cards or not. From this point of view of the rules, it is still somewhat technical.
"Let's go and sit on that table. Brother, I'm wearing red underwear today. I'm guaranteed to win."
After Zheng Dagang came in, he looked around and saw a card table where blackjack was being played. He immediately walked over with Su Xiaofan.
There was a monitor on the gambling table. Su Xiaofan looked at it and saw the rules. The minimum bet was 10,000 chips and the maximum was 3 million.
"Brother Gang, the minimum is ten thousand."
After the two sat down, they saw that Brother Gang had taken a five thousand chip and was about to push it out. Su Xiaofan quickly reminded him.
"Damn it, then we took out too little money. It's not enough to lose twenty games."
Hearing Su Xiaofan's words, Brother Gang couldn't help but tremble. He and Su Xiaofan each had 200,000, and they could only lose 20 games in a row at most.
"Brother Gang, with your mentality, it's better not to gamble."
Su Xiaofan shook his head speechlessly. Just now he was confident that he wanted to win money, but now he was calculating that it was not enough to lose. It is strange to win money with this kind of mentality.
It’s Monday today, so please throw in a recommendation vote!
