? The auction has been going on for some time, and what is being auctioned now is a splash-ink lotus painting by Zhang Daqian. The asking price is 1.5 million, and the price is increased by 50,000 each time. Now the competition is in full swing, with bids coming and going, and this painting will soon be sold.
The price was raised to a high price of two million.
As we all know, Zhang Daqian is known as the Picasso of the East. His paintings are extremely valuable. A painting of "Lake with Traces of Love" sold for a sky-high price of 10.8 million yuan. It is reasonable for this splash-ink lotus painting to be so popular.
Xu Qing didn't have any research on calligraphy and painting, but he was a little fond of this majestic lotus picture. He raised his hand and shouted: "Two million and one million!"
The person in charge of the auction was Xiao Gongyun. When he saw someone raising the price, he immediately spoke up: "This gentleman bids 2.1 million. Is there anyone higher than 2.1 million? This is a rare masterpiece of Zhang Daqian in his later years..."
"
The rich people present were obviously relatively rational. When they saw someone adding 100,000 yuan at a time, they chose to remain silent because they knew there would be better things later.
"Two million one million for the first time, is there a higher price? Two million one million for the second time, two million one million for the third time!" The hammer fell, snap!
"Dealed! Congratulations to this gentleman for taking the picture of Zhang Daqian's splash-ink lotus."
Xu Qing smiled slightly and stepped forward to swipe his card to pay. He was thinking that it would be a good idea to get a better frame and hang the painting in the room.
Xiao Gongyun bent down and took out a white jade Guanyin from the box under him, placed it on the table, and said with a smile: "Gentlemen and ladies, what you are seeing now is a white jade Guanyin from the Ming Dynasty.
It is carved from a whole piece of top-grade mutton-fat white jade, with a net weight of 9.39 kilograms. Not to mention its age, the value of this piece of beautiful jade alone is over 20 million."
Xiao Gongyun deliberately picked up the water cup at the foot of the table and took a sip. He gently touched the pure bottle held in Guanyin's palm with his white-gloved index finger and said slowly: "The price and age of mutton-fat jade do not represent this Guanyin."
The value of the statue is because it also has a special name, Zigang Jade."
"Zigang Yu! It's actually Zigang Yu..." A middle-aged man sitting in the front row stood up with excitement on his face, a look of fanaticism in his eyes.
"The jade material alone is over 20 million, and it is still Zigang Jade from the Ming Dynasty. If this white jade Guanyin is genuine, the price will be at least 50 million or more!" Some knowledgeable people couldn't help but start to estimate the value of the jade Guanyin, and finally got
The conclusion is that this white jade Guanyin can be said to be a priceless treasure.
Xu Qing smiled and subconsciously reached out and touched the piece of micro-carved Zigang Jade on his chest. He thought to himself, maybe one day I can carve a fine piece like Zigang Jade. Will it be called Xu Qingyu by then?
"Youdao means that gold has price and jade is priceless. As we all know, Zigang jade is the best among jade. Today I will sell jade to attract gold. The white jade Guanyin is priced at a low price of 68 million. Each increase in price will not be less than 1 million. Please
Start bidding.”
"Seventy million." The bidder was the middle-aged man who stood up and raised the price by two million at once.
Xu Qing has no interest in this jade Guanyin. As a member of the jade carving industry, Lu Zigang is a monument standing in his heart, and it can even be said to be a goal. There are countless people who have imitated the Zigang jade carving style for hundreds of years.
If the Jade God Lu Zigang was still alive, he would definitely say proudly: "Brother can only be imitated, but never surpassed."
"Seventy-one million." The bidder was Old Man Zhuang, whom he had met last time. As the head of a well-known domestic jewelry store, he naturally understood the value of this jade Guanyin. If he took a photo of this thing and put it in the store, it would be the same.
Objects at Zhenshan Gate.
"Seventy-five million."
The middle-aged man directly increased the price by four million, as if he was determined to win it. Perhaps because the price of this jade Guanyin was too high, the only people bidding were Old Man Zhuang and the middle-aged man, and everyone looked at him very much.
Naturally, he turned to Old Man Zhuang.
"This piece of Gang Jade is really good in my jewelry store, but it's too expensive to buy." Mr. Zhuang said, looking at the middle-aged man, then raised his hand and said: "Eighty million."
Five million was added at once, which was considered a big deal. The expression on the middle-aged man's face suddenly changed. He raised his right palm and pressed it on his knees, then sat down with his waist down.
The hall fell silent, and Xiao Gongyuan showed a professional smile on his face, and began to read the hammer, bang! The rubber hammer hit the table, and the white jade Guanyin belonged to it.
Xiao Gongyun cleared his throat and said: "The last piece of white jade Guanyin in this auction was bought by Mr. Zhuang. I have prepared a (4) fun little show for everyone. It can make men's hearts beat and women's hearts beat.
As for those who are neither male nor female, they can only scream..."
These words whetted everyone's appetite. Xu Qing and Tang Guobin looked at each other and smiled, and were about to start betting on stones. Xiao Gongyuan's eloquence was really good, and his eloquence was almost as good as gold teeth.
At this moment, a discordant cell phone ringtone suddenly rang, and Xu Qing felt a shock in his pocket. Needless to say, the ringtone came from his pocket.
He took out his cell phone and walked out quickly so as not to disturb others. When the call was answered, he realized that it was actually Xue Guoqiang. He first asked about his current location and then asked him to go to the Jiangcheng City Committee in two hours and said that he had something very important.
Interview required.
Xu Qing was a little confused, if there was something he couldn't talk about at home, why would he have to go to the municipal committee? He could only agree to it because of his face. Anyway, he had plenty of time, so let's see what good information he had this time.
The rules for betting on stones are the same as the last auction. Each piece of wool has a price clearly marked on its surface. After you select and pay, you can unlock the stone on the spot. If you find a jadeite of good quality, you can also bid and sell it on the spot, because this is almost impossible.
Everyone in the hall gathered around.
Xu Qing used his clairvoyant eyes to scan through a large pile of woolen materials several times. He was pleasantly surprised to find a piece of ice-yellow green material with a price tag of only 10,000 yuan. He quickly stepped forward to hug it and took out a wad of cash to pay.
Settle the account.
There are about ten pieces of jade in this batch of wool. Generally speaking, the quality is quite good, but the only thing that has really seen a huge increase is the basketball-sized piece of yellow sand fur in Xu Qing's hand.
"Do you need to untie it here?" Xiao Gongyun stepped forward and asked warmly. He seemed to have some impression of Xu Qing.
"Thank you, no need. Just bring me two large plastic bags to put them in." Xu Qing didn't plan to unwrap the wool here, but took it back and stored it, so that he could carve out the items himself later when he became proficient in his craftsmanship.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Xiao Gongyuan smiled and immediately asked someone to bring two large plastic bags, the kind used for packaging in the restaurant below.
