Chapter 186: The White Porcelain Bowl Nobody Wants
Chapter 186 The white porcelain bowl that no one wants
This auction item is very small, so Cyclops specially added a small bench on the table and placed the items on top of the small bench so that everyone can see it more clearly.
What Li Yang didn't expect was that it turned out to be a dark green jade snuff bottle, similar in size to the one Li Yang dug out from under the bed at home, but the carving and jade quality were not as good as the one in Li Yang's home.
Seeing this snuff bottle, Li Yang recalled his experience of meeting Mr. He, and a sigh suddenly rose in his heart. Without Mr. He, he might not be able to follow several experts to travel around to appraise ancient jade and appreciate various places.
ancient cultural customs.
"This is a jade snuff bottle from the mid-Qing Dynasty. The workmanship is very beautiful. The base price is 80,000 yuan. If you are interested, come and take a look!"
After the one-eyed dragon finished speaking, he took two steps back and gave up his position so that more people could observe the emerald snuff bottle up close.
The number of people who went to the middle to see the jade snuff bottle was really bad. There were almost twenty people, which was comparable to the number of people who went up to the two previous auction items combined.
An Wenjun also followed this time. She didn't know if it was something from the Qing Dynasty, but she could still tell if it was not a good jade. And this time Wu Xiaoli followed Li Yang. She wouldn't buy it without money.
It's something, but it's good to take a look at it. Such old jade snuff bottles are rarely seen.
Liu Gang and An's two bodyguards stayed behind, and the people who stayed next to them were all bodyguards. There were many people who were interested in this snuff bottle, and most of them brought experts to check it out carefully.
"Wenjun, if you like it, I can buy it and give it to you later!"
Shao Yulong actually followed him up and even approached An Wenjun to show his courtesy. An Wenjun glanced at the dandy with disgust and squeezed next to Li Yang, refusing to say a word to Shao Yulong.
Shao Yulong, who was disappointed, didn't care at all and walked forward with a smile to check the jade snuff bottle with others.
After being teased by Shao Yulong, An Wenjun and the others were pushed outside, and they could only wait for the people inside to finish watching.
Looking at the head in front of him, Li Yang shook his head helplessly. A blank three-dimensional picture appeared in his mind. Soon, a thick green appeared in the middle of the picture.
Since you can't see it with the naked eye first, you can only use special abilities to observe it. Li Yang is also very interested in this jade snuff bottle.
The jadeite is good, it is a real ice jade. The snuff bottle has three layers of light yellow halo on it. It belongs to the middle and late Qing Dynasty. It is a real old thing.
It's a pity that the carving of this snuff bottle is very average, not as exquisite as Li Yang's, and the color is not bright emerald green, but an oily green with blue spots. In terms of performance alone, the value of this jade snuff bottle is
It's far worse than the one Li Yang found, but the water is good and it's an old thing. It's still worth four or five million.
The most important thing is that there are no traces of excavation on this snuff bottle, and snuff bottles are very common items. This way, it can be cleaned without any effort, or even directly auctioned. This is very interesting to everyone.
Like it very much.
It took about twenty minutes for everyone to finish observing, and then they all nodded slightly and returned to their seats.
"One hundred thousand!"
As soon as I sat back down, someone made a bid. The speaker was a boss in his forties, and he was accompanied by an expert in his forties and a bodyguard in his twenties. This combination was the most common today.
"One hundred and twenty thousand!"
Someone next to him immediately raised the price, and then the two of them raised the price up to 10,000 and 20,000. After a while, the price of the jade snuff bottle was raised to 260,000, and at this time, there were six people participating in the bidding.
.
More and more people entered the bidding, which made many people who were interested in this jade snuff bottle feel the pressure. An Wenping frowned slightly and looked at An Wenjun. She was interested in this jade snuff bottle.
Pot also became interested.
Before I even thought about bidding, the price of the jade snuff bottle had already exceeded 300,000 yuan. The last person to bid was actually Shao Yulong. As soon as Shao Yulong finished bidding, everyone's eyes fell on him.
"Three hundred and one thousand!"
Shao Yulong had already bid, and An Wenping was naturally not to be outdone. She bid for the jade snuff bottle for the first time. After more than twenty seconds, the boss opposite added another ten thousand.
After that, the price increase was obviously much slower than before. Five or six minutes later, the jade snuff bottle only reached the price of 380,000 yuan. Now the people who are increasing the price are not increasing the price by 10,000 to 10,000 yuan at a time. Basically,
It's an increase of three thousand or five thousand, or even one thousand.
"Four hundred thousand!"
Someone suddenly increased the price by 20,000 yuan. This time it was Shao Yulong who increased the price. At this time, Shao Yulong looked at An Wenping with provocative eyes.
As soon as the price of 400,000 yuan came out, some people were already swayed by the jade snuff bottle. They participated in the black market to find treasures and wanted to make some money. There were very few people who really wanted to buy it. If the benefits were small, they would definitely not
Dry.
There is another reason. Everyone who participates in the black market brings cash, usually hundreds of thousands, and the most is only a million. They have spent the money on this thing. It will be better when it appears later.
It's too late for them to regret it.
Seeing Shao Yulong's provocative and teasing eyes, An Wenping's anger suddenly rose, and Li Yang on the side immediately felt that something was wrong.
"Four hundred and fifty thousand!"
Before Li Yang came to persuade him, An Wenping had already made a bid. Four hundred and fifty thousand yuan was equivalent to the normal market price of this jade snuff bottle. You can't say you're losing money buying such a thing on the black market, but it's not cost-effective because
Your large amount of cash is gone, and you won't have the chance to buy other good things for a while.
Li Yang smiled bitterly, and Shao Yulong laughed as expected and refused to increase the price.
After the one-eyed dragon dropped the hammer, An Wenping realized that she had been tricked by Shao Yulong again. She had taken two of the first three auction items, and all of a sudden the 600,000 yuan in cash was gone.
Now An Wenping's financial resources have shrunk greatly.
An Wenping felt very regretful about this, and remembered that if Li Yang hadn't helped just now, I'm afraid the second Wanli colorful bowl would have fallen into her hands. In that case, her trip to the black market would have been in vain. An Wenping thought of this
I actually felt a little grateful to Li Yang.
"Wen Ping, calm down!"
An Wenjun on the side didn't know much about antiques, but he still understood the situation very well. He couldn't help but stepped forward and whispered to An Wenping. An Wenping nodded. She didn't have much cash left. She would be sure in a while.
Be calm.
Li Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head. Although An Wenping was deceived by Shao Yulong again, fortunately the item was genuine and she did not buy a defective product like Shao Yulong did. This was finally a good thing.
All three items fetched high prices, which made the smile on Cyclops' face grow even brighter, and he hurriedly took out the fourth auction item.
This is a Tang Sancai pottery figurine. It is very small and has a strong smell of loess. It can be seen that it is a newly unearthed tomb object.
The pottery figurines were well made, but unfortunately they were incomplete. The value of such things was not very high. Sure enough, the one-eyed dragon only quoted a base price of three thousand yuan.
The first three items are good, they are used to stimulate the atmosphere. The atmosphere has been stirred up, so naturally they have to take out the items that are usually difficult to sell. The more they can sell, the better.
The pottery figurine was finally bought for 3,600, and they didn't care much about such things. For Cyclops and the others, as long as they could sell it, it was a good thing. It was worthless in their hands, as long as they could exchange it for money.
Just change it back a bit.
The fifth piece was an ancient painting, which was also somewhat damaged. The starting price was only 5,000 yuan. It was finally bought by a boss in his forties for 8,800 yuan, which was a very auspicious number.
The sixth item was a white porcelain bowl. When they saw this porcelain bowl, Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli's eyes suddenly narrowed, while An Wenping shook her head.
It can be said that none of these items are really good, especially this bowl, which looks very much like a current counterfeit. I don’t know how people in the black market sell such a bowl.
"This porcelain bowl was unearthed from a Ming Dynasty tomb. It is guaranteed to be an old thing. The starting price is 10,000!"
After the one-eyed dragon shouted, no one came forward to take a look. The bowl didn't look like a good thing at first glance. The one-eyed dragon said it was obtained from a tomb in the Ming Dynasty, but no one obviously believed it.
Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli glanced at each other, and they both noticed a hint of excitement in each other's eyes.
This white porcelain bowl is obviously exactly the same as the one in Li Yang's home, and the appearance is the same, looking like a weird imitation.
Li Yang suppressed the excitement in his heart and quietly extended his special ability. A three-dimensional image of a white porcelain bowl immediately appeared in Li Yang's mind.
With eleven layers of aperture and beautiful patterns, this white porcelain bowl is indeed the same as the one in Li Yang's home. The bowl body is also wrapped with a layer of dry oil, and the bottom of this bowl is also covered with dry oil.
No trace of Yuan Dynasty porcelain can be seen.
Seeing that no one came forward to take a look, the one-eyed dragon smiled bitterly. This bowl was indeed obtained by one of their gang members when they robbed a tomb. Unfortunately, the shape was too strange. They had taken it out for auction three times, starting from the first bid of 80,000 yuan to the current one.
Ten thousand, but no one is willing to buy it, and I'm afraid it will also fail this time.
"The black market is getting worse and worse. They dare to take pictures of such obviously fake things!"
An Wenping snorted coldly and said something in a low voice. Fortunately, the voice was very low and no one except Li Yang could hear it. Otherwise, if the organizers of the black market heard it, they would be expelled.
Already.
After three full minutes, the one-eyed dragon shook his head slightly and prepared to put away this white porcelain bowl that was going to be rejected again.
As soon as the one-eyed dragon walked to the porcelain bowl, Li Yang suddenly stood up and strode to the middle, picked up the small bowl and looked at it carefully.
"The workmanship is not bad. If you are willing, sell it to me for five thousand yuan and I will take it back and use it as a reference!"
Li Yang put down the bowl and looked straight at the one-eyed dragon. This kind of underground auction usually only increases the price. Li Yang actually started bargaining with the organizer. No one knew what the result would be.
