In a nearby lounge, Yatsuro Nobuburo was sitting by the window, turning his head to watch the host on the stage on the first floor announcing the start of the auction, remaining silent.
The assistant sitting nearby did not dare to disturb Yashiro Enzaburo, causing the atmosphere in the room to become a bit dull.
Yashiro Enzaburo didn't pay attention to the atmosphere, and silently thought about the auction items mentioned in the email he received in the morning.
Boxes, swords, rings, drinking horns, jars, golden snake statues...
Six things, the adult asked him to choose three to buy at will. Of course, he can also buy two or four, but he must ensure that these six things do not fall into the hands of outsiders. In addition, he also needs to cooperate with the adult.
Act out a play.
The task is not difficult, but it is not easy to complete it well. You must put some effort into it.
"I hope you will enjoy all kinds of treasures tonight and have an unforgettable night..."
When the host on the stage saw Suzuki Shiro and Suzuki Tomoko coming down the stairwell on the second floor, he felt relieved and continued, "We have prepared a gift for every guest present, and then the staff will bring the gifts
It will be distributed to everyone. Two days later, the Suzuki Tower will officially hold an opening ceremony. In addition to the souvenirs from this auction, the gifts given to you also include an invitation letter to the opening ceremony. You can bring it with you on the official opening day of the Suzuki Tower.
Come with friends or family, the 460-meter-high observation deck will be opened for the first time, and we will also provide you with a buffet of lunch and refreshments..."
Under the stage, a staff member handed out gift boxes packed in exquisite paper bags along the seats.
Even the staff of Nippon TV station who were broadcasting live received a gift each.
During the gift distribution, the host introduced the Suzuki Tower that was about to open. After Shiro Suzuki and Tomoko Suzuki arrived at the stage, arranged their clothes and nodded in confirmation, they changed the topic, "Now, let us invite the organizer of this auction.
Mr. Suzuki Shiro, the president of Fang Suzuki Foundation, and Mrs. Suzuki Tomoko, Mr. Suzuki Shiro’s wife, came to the stage to deliver speeches..."
After the Suzuki couple came on stage, they simply expressed their gratitude to those present and quickly left the stage, allowing the auction to enter the official auction session.
For this auction, the Suzuki Foundation invited three well-known appraisers from Japan and three well-known foreign appraisers to form a team of appraisers. They not only appraised the auction items before the auction, but also during the formal auction.
Let the appraisal team make some professional introductions to the auction items.
When the auction items are displayed, the staff will also use high-definition cameras to capture the details clearly and display them on the big screen and tablet computers in the lounge on the second floor, so that people in the venue can see the details clearly.
This kind of auction can completely serve as a program of "appreciating and appraising treasures".
The program team of Nippon TV Station has obtained the qualification to enter the live broadcast, and does not need to do much work. The staff put the camera pointed at the stage and can wait for the auction to proceed peacefully.
The first three auction items are all small items used to warm up.
For example, auction item No. 3 is a bronze bell about the size of a child's fist. It has no patterns on the surface and has an old-fashioned appearance. Apart from being well-preserved, there is almost nothing worth paying attention to. And precisely because it is well-preserved, the bell looks...
It doesn't look like an antique, so not many people are interested in bells.
Of course, this does not mean that the three items are not valuable. If placed at an ordinary auction, these items can be regarded as treasures.
During the display of the auction items, the host also guided the appraisers to tell the value of the items, such as the year when the bell was made, its unique material and craftsmanship, and the characteristics of the times reflected on it. Together with the detailed display, the appetizers
It also seemed particularly precious. Coupled with the host's occasional expressions of emotion and wonder, the program was fully effective.
Within twenty minutes, the first three auction items were auctioned one after another.
Although the host and the appraiser cooperated to talk about the advantages of the auction items and let some people try to bid, no one at the scene was incited to get excited. When someone bid a higher price, many people
I chose to give up, and the final transaction price of the auction items was basically within the range of everyone’s expectations.
Fei Mozhengtai took the picture of the bell without encountering any obstacles. After a little persistence, he bought the bell at the expected price.
The other two items among the three auction items were photographed by two guests on the first floor.
"The next auction item is even more rare. It is an antiquities from the 16th and 17th centuries, but like the bell of auction item No. 3, it is very well preserved. What is even more rare is that it is a ceramic product...
"When the staff brought the things to the stage in the display cabinet, the host smiled and gave a general introduction. When he saw the pottery jar, there was a hint of surprise on his face, "Although this is not the first time I have seen it, I still want to ask.
Wait, is this really an antique? It looks newer than the jar my father used twenty years ago..."
There was a burst of laughter from the audience.
On the second floor, Koshimizu Nanatsuki was sitting by the window, holding a tablet computer and eager to try.
"First let others push the price higher, and then directly offer a higher price to cap it," Chi Feichi reminded, and then paused, "Of course, if you think the bidding is interesting, you can also bid from a low price.
to high prices.”
"Forget it," Koshimizu Nanatsuki decisively chose to be lazy, "I'd better wait until the price is almost the same before bidding. It's too troublesome to bid from the low price up."
Nakamori Aoko and Koizumi Anko were sitting aside. When they noticed Kuroba Kaito opening the door and coming in, he said, "Kaito, you are too slow to go to the bathroom. Three items have already been auctioned!"
Kuroba Kaito excused himself to go to the bathroom within two minutes of arriving on the second floor, but actually went outside the lounge where Suzuki Jirokichi was to inquire about information. He also knew that he had been away for a long time this time, so he scratched his head and smiled, "Ah, sorry, then now
Is this the fourth auction item?"
"Yeah," Nakamori Aoko changed her attention and shared excitedly, "Brother Feichi and Sister Nanatsuki were planning to take pictures of that jar. You almost missed the bidding!"
"That clay pot?" Kuroba Kaito closed the door, sat next to Nakamori Aoko, and looked at Chi Feichi with a puzzled look on his face, "Brother Feichi, why did you buy that?"
"Of course I bought it for collection," Chi Feichi said calmly, "The pattern on it looks very pleasing to the eye."
Kuroba Kaito twitched his mouth when he saw Chi Feichi's attitude as if he was buying a toy, and then deliberately put on a serious expression and asked, "Brother Feichi, do you like me? Just give me half the value of that jar.
With money, I can be kept by you forever as your brother!"
Nakamori Aoko covered her face.
Half of the pocket money in that jar... Kaito really dared to say that.
Kuroba Kaito saw Chi Feichi turning his attention to him and asked with a smile, "What do you think of my proposal?"
Chi Feichi looked at Kuroba Kaito calmly, "I haven't developed the hobby of collecting my brother as a human specimen for the time being..."
Kuroba Kaito: "?!"
What human specimen?
"It feels a bit bloody and inhumane," Chi Feichi continued to look at Kuroba Kaito, "but if you think it's okay..."
"No!" Kuroba Kaito's scalp was numb. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that Chi Feichi's eyes were a little cold. He suspected that Chi Feichi was already demonstrating the process of making him into a specimen in his mind, and stared at him warily.
Chi Feichi said, "Isn't this a little bloody? It's very bloody, okay? I'm talking about the living animal collection!"
"If you didn't make a specimen and you died in an accident outside, wouldn't I lose a collection forever?" Chi Feichi asked in a calm tone.
"You..." Kuroba Kaito twitched the corner of his mouth, "Just pretend I didn't say it. If you make me into a specimen, you won't be able to explain to my father who has been dead for many years!"
"Okay, Kaito, please be quiet for a moment." Nakamori Aoko saw Koshizu Nanatsuki entering numbers on the tablet, and excitedly reached out to hold Kuroba Kaito's arm, "Nanatsuki-san is going to bid!"
Kuroba Kaito turned his head and looked at the big screen outside the window, "If you ask for something like this at a similar price, no one will bid..."
Koshimi Nanatsuki's bid and the corresponding lounge number quickly appeared on the big screen, and the host also read out the numbers.
Before the host could finish speaking, new numbers popped up on the big screen.
"Huh?" Nakamori Aoko was a little surprised, "Lounge No. 8 also made a bid? Do the people in that lounge also want this jar?"
Seeing that his prediction was wrong, Kuroba Kaito was not upset at all. He looked at the big screen seriously and said, "Nanatsuki-san's bid is one million higher than the previous highest bid. And Nanatsuki-san's price is over there."
Exactly one million was added to the bid..."
Chi Fei belatedly saw Yueshui Nanatsuki looking at him and said decisively, "Add, one million."
