Qin Zheng and Wei Wenhua were in the auction hall, chatting and drinking tea from time to time, and the time passed quickly.
In the last half hour, some people gradually entered the hall, and after a while, the auction officially started.
It was Qin Zheng's first time to participate in such an auction, and he felt very curious. He would use detection to check every item when it came on stage, but after a while, Qin Zheng gradually lost interest.
The auction is nothing more than this. The auctioneer introduces the items, and then bids for the auction. There is a bidder on the table in front of everyone, and you can also raise a sign to bid. Then the items are auctioned, and then a special person will deliver them to you, and then the payment will be handed over.
.
Originally, those who entered the market were required to pay a deposit, but Wei Wenhua is also considered a celebrity in the domestic collecting community and has a considerable net worth, so this procedure is naturally unnecessary.
Qin Zheng was able to follow Wei Wenhua in, which was considered a blessing. Otherwise, with the way he was dressed, he would have been stopped and checked at the door.
Time passed minute by minute, and Wei Wenhua also took a photo of the item he wanted. Although he spent four million, seeing Wei Wenhua's indifference, Qin Zheng knew that he and Wei Wenhua were still
There are differences.
Qin Zheng can only be considered a nouveau riche at best now, while Wei Wenhua mostly makes money in his business through jewelry. As for antiques, he imports more and exports less, making very little money. But if Wei Wenhua wants to make him
If all the collections were sold, I heard Wei Wenhua said, it would probably cost several hundred million.
Unknowingly, it was time for the small tripod that Qin Zheng was paying attention to to be put up for auction.
"What we are going to auction next is a mysterious small tripod. This small tripod has been appraised by Gao Laogao for the people. It has a history of more than a thousand years. Not only is its appearance well-preserved, but its material is even more special. According to Yuncheng
The test conducted by the Precious Metal Research Institute is made of a metal that has not yet been discovered by humans. This type of metal is very hard and harmless to the human body. On the contrary, it has the effect of enhancing human immunity..."
The auctioneer made a lot of eloquent opening remarks, but few people were interested in it. Most of them focused on the fact that this small tripod was made of an unknown metal.
Although the age of this small tripod sounds scary, it does not belong to the production style of any dynasty, and its origin cannot be explained clearly. This is what people who collect antiques or buy and sell antiques value.
For example, if a calligraphy was made by someone of the same generation as Wang Xizhi, but his skills were not as good as Wang Xizhi's and he was not well-known, then even if his calligraphy is preserved to this day, its value is only average, and no one will pursue it.
.On the contrary, if any of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy has been passed down to modern times, even if it was written in his early years and is not as good as the calligraphy in his peak period, the value will be greatly increased.
After all, compared to the five thousand years of Chinese history, there are too few celebrities in history, and this is what people who buy antiques are after.
After the auctioneer introduced the small tripod, he unveiled the red silk covering the small tripod and the auction began.
As soon as the red silk was unveiled, there was a burst of exclamation from the crowd, not for anything else but because the appearance of this small tripod was so attractive.
Although it is a six-legged tripod, both the design style and the shining brilliance of its external materials have firmly attracted people's attention.
Even in modern times, this small tripod with a unique style is still a rare work of art. It is highly ornamental and, according to reports, it can be beneficial to the human body.
It seems that the auctioneer does not know its true value and only treats it as a handicraft.
But what Qin Zheng didn't expect was that even so, the auction sparked a bidding frenzy as soon as it started.
Not for anything else, just because the craftsmanship of this small tripod is so beautiful. People are really willing to pursue beauty! Qin Zheng thought to himself and used a detection on the small tripod:
"Beep! Xuanxing meteorite iron ore was discovered, content: 30%; mysterious energy substance was discovered, energy reserve: 500 points, functional item, function: refining elixirs."
It was really it! Finally found it, Qin Zheng was overjoyed.
As for the feedback information, Qin Zheng was shocked when he thought about it carefully.
The energy reserve is 500 points. Not to mention the mysterious energy. This is one of the reasons that made Qin Zheng overjoyed. Before, Qin Zheng found that the pattern on Xiao Ding's body was a bit familiar. Now that he discovered the mysterious energy, Qin Zheng remembered it.
Yes, the ancient jade bracelet from last time was also engraved with a similar pattern. No wonder Qin Zheng is familiar with it. I see!
The most important thing about this small tripod is that it is a rare functional item. For such functional items, Qin Zheng really needs them.
Because Qin Zheng understood from the beginning why there were so few items in the system store. In addition to the damage to the original main system, more importantly, the system needed to acquire some functional items to update the system store.
After ingesting a functional item, it does not mean that Qin Zheng will have these functions immediately. Instead, the system analyzes the function of the item when ingesting the functional item, and then allows Qin Zheng to possess the function of the item in the form of a formula or energy forged item.
For example, as long as Qin Zheng ingests this small cauldron, he can have the system analyze its function in refining elixirs. After the system store is updated, the various formulas and production methods of the elixirs that can be refined by this small cauldron will be available.
To restore it, Qin Zheng only needs to spend points to purchase formulas and crafting props to refine the elixir himself.
Now how can Qin Zheng not be excited when encountering this kind of functional item! Besides, it is an item required for the mission and has such a high energy reserve. No matter what, Qin Zheng must get it!
Qin Zheng drank a cup of tea, calmed down his excitement, and looked at the bidding situation in front of him. It had already reached three million.
Not to mention three million, even if it were doubled ten times, Qin Zheng would buy it. If he didn't have enough money, he would ask Wei Wenhua to borrow some. With Wei Wenhua's attitude towards him, he should lend it to him.
Some money. But Wei Wenhua couldn't lend him too much. After all, the two of them weren't familiar with each other that much.
"I really have no choice but to ask Uncle Yong for help. Uncle Yong didn't take seriously the 20 million given by Hu San last time. I guess even if he can't lend it to me, he can still find someone to lend him the money, right?
"Qin Zheng thought secretly.
"Three and a half million. Mr. Li offered three and a half million. Is there anything higher?"
"four million!"
"Four million, four million, Mr. Liu bids four million."
As time passed, there was fierce competition at the beginning and now only two people are left shouting prices.
One is a middle-aged man named Mr. Li, wearing glasses and looking like a gentle, elegant and successful man.
The other is a man in his forties or fifties, with a fat body and a shiny face - Mr. Liu.
Next to Mr. Liu was sitting a fashionably dressed, sexy and coquettish woman. At this time, the woman was talking next to Mr. Liu, her expression seemed to be coquettish, and she rubbed her plump breasts against Mr. Liu from time to time.
Mr. Liu looked like he was seduced by his lust, and then shouted out a high price of four million.
When Mr. Li saw this bid, he showed hesitation on his face, as if he was thinking about whether to increase the bid.
The Fatty Liu in front of me was a well-known upstart, and he was bidding on this thing for a woman. It was irrational to argue with him, but Mr. Li really liked this small tripod, so he began to hesitate.
"Four million, is there a higher bid?"
"Four million times!"
"Twice four million!"
"five million!"
At this time, Qin Zheng raised his sign. The two of them had raised their prices to 200,000 yuan and 500,000 yuan before. This time, Qin Zheng increased the price to 1 million yuan at once, which attracted the two people's attention.
The proud smile that had just appeared on Mr. Liu's face suddenly solidified.
