On the fifth day of the big auction, everyone left the house before nine o'clock in the morning. This afternoon was the special session of Oriental calligraphy and painting. According to the news that Lin Lang received, the painting that Moratti considered to be authentic would be auctioned this afternoon.
"Along the River During Qingming Festival".
In the past two days, there were many wonderful bidding processes in the four auctions, which opened the eyes of Li Yang and others.
In the armor sale the day before yesterday, a 13th-century medieval solid gold armor weighing more than 50 kilograms was auctioned for a high price of 210 million, directly suppressing the previous record of the Queen's Crown.
This is also the second auction item at a major auction to exceed 100 million euros.
In addition to this armor, there is also a "Daughter of the Sea" made by a famous sculptor, which sold for a high price of 93 million euros.
The sculpture "Daughter of the Sea" is three meters high and is the work of the famous Italian sculptor Marco. Probably because of its local status, the competition for this work is very fierce, and the price has soared from the base price of 6 million euros to more than 90 million euros.
This is also the auction item with the highest multiple difference between the starting price and the transaction price in a major auction.
In addition to these relatively famous ones, there are countless auction items worth millions or tens of millions.
According to Lin Lang's calculations, the total turnover of the auctions in the first four days of the auction has exceeded 4 billion euros, and on average, it has basically exceeded 1 billion every day.
There were a total of seven auctions in four days, which meant that each auction had a turnover of almost 600 million euros. This figure was indeed beyond the reach of everyone.
It has only been four days. According to past experience, the large-scale high-value treasures in the big auction are still in the last three days.
According to Lin Lang's budget, the total transaction volume of this major auction is only a little more than 10 billion euros.
This figure is indeed beyond the reach of all auction companies around the world. In ten days, 10 billion euros, equivalent to 100 billion yuan, were sold. I am afraid that only large auctions can achieve this.
"Let's go!"
Lin Lang called Li Yang. Only a few of them knew about "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" and had not told Bai Ming or the others.
They still don't know whether the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" auctioned this time is real or fake. Telling it too early will only make everyone worried. Lin Lang discussed it with Li Yang and Dean Huang and finally kept the secret.
"Set off!"
At another five-star hotel, Mitsui Yasu said coldly, and Aoki Weiyang, who came to help him, hurriedly followed him. The auction item they were going to bid for today was also something they were determined to get.
With this treasure, they have hope of getting back the Tian Cong Yun Sword, and they dare not make any mistakes regarding Aoki Weiyang's auction today.
"Are the funds ready?"
Mr. Hoss smiled and looked at the Joseph brothers. They were the organizers of the original grand auction, and most of the auction items bid at the grand auction were secretly contacted by them.
But as time progresses and more partners join, their control is no longer what it used to be.
So much so that if they now need an auction item, they have to bid for it themselves.
However, this was also a rule they specially set up for the stability of the grand auction. No one else can blame them.
"Everything is ready!"
Bess smiled slightly. The only good thing about their organization is that they have strong financial resources. Everyone has a certain amount of financial resources. They are not afraid of anyone when it comes to spending money.
"Okay, with this painting in hand, I don't believe Li Yang can still sit still!"
Hoss smiled with satisfaction. Today there are only six of them on the farm. Earl Aton and others have gone out to settle other relationships, but six people are enough, and they have prepared a large sum of money.
At the same time, people in South Korea and other countries were also excited. The fifth day of the auction was destined to be a different day.
"Let's go!"
Bai Ming was the first to jump on the car. The four-day auction made everyone excited and saw many wonderful treasures that were difficult to see at ordinary times.
Mr. Gao was also very satisfied this time. With Mr. Mao and Teacher Cai as consultants, he took three good treasures, with a total price of more than 13 million euros. The three treasures already exceeded 100 million yuan.
Xiao Yan followed and got into the car, with excitement on his face.
This big auction shocked him even more. Such an auction was something he had never thought of and never seen before. It could also be said that it greatly broadened his horizons.
Silently, Xiao Yan's mentality also changed a lot. He saw the broad horizons outside and finally had clearer goals for his future development.
This is a good thing, and it is also the purpose of Bai Ming bringing him to the big auction. Now it seems that the effect is not bad.
Li Yang and Dean Huang got into the car, and the car started slowly and drove slowly towards the farm.
The grand auction has been going on for the fifth day. Many people are familiar with everything here. They got out of the car and walked towards the market at the door without anyone having to say anything.
In the past few days, there have been stories of missing items or missing holes coming from time to time in the market at the entrance.
You can get your eyesight here, but there is no one to support you. This is a temporary market in itself. You have to rely on your own eyesight. If your eyesight is not good, you can only treat it as paying tuition.
After buying a few gadgets at the market outside, the time had almost passed and the group all entered the farm.
After sitting down in the private room, Lin Lang glanced at Li Yang and Dean Huang. The reason why Dean Huang did not leave with the "Méng Na Lisa's Smile" was because he was waiting for this day.
"Welcome everyone, old friends, we meet again..."
Grand appeared on the big screen with a smile on his face. He was the special auctioneer this afternoon. He had presided over three of the eight auctions and was the most favored auctioneer in the big auction.
Grand didn't talk nonsense and quickly started today's auction.
"This is a picture of plum blossoms, a proud work of the famous Singaporean painter Zhou Mei..."
Grand said slowly, the first item to be auctioned was a large plum blossom painting, the author was Master Zhou Mei.
Zhou Mei was born in the late Qing Dynasty and died more than 30 years ago. He is considered a famous contemporary painter and has a profound influence in Southeast Asia. He is also known as the godfather of Singaporean painting circles.
Zhou Mei's real name is not this. He liked plum blossoms very much, so he finally changed his name to Zhou Mei. His story is still a legend recognized by Singaporeans.
This painting is very large, about ten square feet, and very few of Zhou Mei's works have been handed down to the public. There are even fewer works of this size, and the market is estimated to be at least 50 million yuan.
In the end, the painting was sold for 6.8 million euros. The first auction item was a good start.
"The picture below is a work from a famous Chinese master from the mysterious country in the East, Xu Beihong's "Nine Fang Gao"..."
Several people were discussing how Zhou Mei's painting had been auctioned at a high price, and they were immediately attracted by Grand's words.
Especially Mr. Gao, his eyes were wide open and there was some surprise on his face.
"This painting was painted by Master Xu Beihong in 1940, and is 177.5 meters long..."
Grand continued to give a brief introduction, while the people next to him slowly unfolded the painting, which was more than one meter long and less than one meter wide, so that everyone could see the true face of the painting.
Before Grand could announce the lowest price, Mr. Gao turned around and looked at Teacher Cai.
Mr. Gao himself cannot identify the authenticity, but the people around him can. Teacher Cai is very accomplished in calligraphy and painting.
"This should be the one painted by Master Xu in 1940. It is an authentic work!"
Teacher Cai looked at it carefully, and finally nodded slowly, and looked back at Dean Huang.
Just looking at the images on the screen, no one can give a 100% guarantee, but he was hired by Mr. Gao to identify these things. It is his job.
It’s just that there are better experts around me at this time, so it’s okay to just listen to their opinions.
“I didn’t expect that this painting would end up abroad!”
Dean Huang sighed softly and said something slowly. Mr. Gao immediately turned around. Dean Huang's words made it clear his opinion.
It's a fake, Dean Huang would never say that.
"The starting price is 5.3 million euros..."
Grand finally quoted the lowest price for the painting. As soon as he quoted the price, the numbers on the screen kept flashing, and soon it reached more than six million.
Xu Beihong currently has a great influence in China, and his works have great potential for appreciation, which changes every year. This painting "Nine Fang Gao" is a rare masterpiece, otherwise the starting price would not be as high as more than 50 million yuan.
Mr. Gao stopped talking and looked at the screen intently.
He likes calligraphy and painting, and loves Xu Beihong's paintings the most. He has always kept a picture of Xu Beihong's horses. Although this "Jiu Fang Gao" is just a picture of horses, there is still a horse in it.
Taking this painting can be regarded as realizing one of his inner wishes.
At this time, he was already determined to get this painting, and he would not take action until then. Once he did, he would persist until the end.
"Seven million eight hundred thousand!"
Xiao Yan called out softly. This painting, which had a base price of 5.3 million euros, has been priced at nearly 8 million. Most of the people who came this time were rich people, and there were many people who knew the value of this painting.
"Give me more, 8.2 million!"
When the screen turned to 800, Mr. Gao couldn't hold it any longer and hurriedly gave an order.
Eight million and two hundred thousand, this price only stayed on the screen for a few seconds, and was immediately pushed down again.
Nine million, nine and a half million, three minutes later, "Jiu Fang Gao" has exceeded 10 million.
Ten million is equivalent to one hundred million yuan. Mr. Gao's heart couldn't help but speed up. Ten million is not high for him. Xu Beihong's paintings are worth this price, but the price of ten million has not stopped yet.
We still don’t know how high it will rise.
Li Yang, Dean Huang, and the others stopped talking and all looked at the big screen quietly.
"Add twelve million!"
After breaking through 11 million, Mr. Gao finally couldn't help shouting. This time, he directly added 1 million, which directly showed his psychology.
Li Yang and others also understood that the height of this painting had to be determined.

I came back and took a rest for a while, there will be an update later!.
