This time, Shen Shanru still bid the highest, because he is the VIP No. 68 on the big screen, a very auspicious seat number.
But this time, after just five seconds, an astonishing offer appeared on the big screen: "VIP No. 9, 20 million yuan."
Shen Yu smiled when he saw this. Buyer No. 9 was also one of his acquaintances, Zheng Congyuan, Boss Zheng. This wealthy businessman owned several fast-moving consumer goods brands and was never short of cash.
The few pieces of commercial real estate and stocks he recently invested in have also made a lot of money. A mere tens of millions is nothing to him. After all, the net profit of Qinglianggu Pure Water alone is about 400 million yuan a year.
Not to mention there are Dongji Beer, Chuzhou Daqu, Mellow Milk and higher-end clear spring mineral water, all of which can be said to be cash cows, the kind that can’t be counted even if you count the money.
The numbers on the big screen changed again, "VIP No. 5, 21 million yuan."
This time it was Liu Dongyang and Mr. Liu's bid, which was only increased by one million, purely to give Zhang Zongbao face. I just learned from Pei Yuqin that Liu Dongyang and Zhang Zongbao are actually cousins, aunts and cousins.
Of course, this does not mean that Liu Dongyang cannot afford it. Bogutang’s valuation is 1.2 billion, but it is only the valuation of the antiques currently in stock in the store and some of Liu Dongyang’s private collections. Bogutang’s profits in the past thirty years are not included in it.< /p>
Liu Dongyang's personal net worth is at least two billion. It is trivial for him to buy an ancient painting worth tens of millions, but the business of opening an antique store is to buy an antique at the market price. I definitely can’t do painting.
The price was quickly overwhelmed as there were several more bidders. In just two minutes, the painting "Picture of Xiao Temple in Qingluan" surged to 26 million yuan.
At this price, there were very few bidders. It took half a minute before a price appeared again on the big screen. It was still No. 68 Shen Shanru, bidding 27 million.
Zheng Congyuan didn't hesitate at all and immediately followed with 30 million, showing the momentum that he was bound to win.
This time Shen Shanru did not continue to follow, he shrugged and gave up.
The auction hall is very quiet now, everyone is waiting for the next high price.
In fact, no matter how high the price of the painting is, it has nothing to do with the people in the hall, but everyone is very excited, because witnessing an auction record is not only a beautiful memory, but also a good source of conversation before tea and after dinner.
"VIP No. 9, Mr. Zheng, bid 30 million yuan for this authentic painting of Xu Daoning. Are there any friends who bid higher?"
Zhang Zongbao certainly hopes that there will be more bids, but the current price is already an unexpected gain. After all, this is an unknown painting. Although it is from the Song Dynasty and has appraisal instructions from top appraisers, in the final analysis it still has no distinction. Signed anonymous painting.
"30 million yuan, the first time.
"30 million yuan, the second time.
"30 million yuan, the third time."
"Bang!"
"The transaction was completed. Congratulations to Mr. Zheng Congyuan for acquiring this authentic painting by a famous Northern Song Dynasty landscape artist."
The moment the auction gavel hit, Zhang Zongbao began to take the lead in applauding.
For a moment, there was thunderous applause in the hall. Most of the buyers in the hall were extremely happy to witness the sale of a 30-million-yuan item, because they would have something to talk about at the dinner party.<
/p>
I attended an auction and saw with my own eyes that the top rich man in Chuzhou, Zheng Congyuan, bought a Song Dynasty painting worth 30 million yuan. How embarrassing is that?
What does a little applause mean?
Zheng Congyuan was already accustomed to big scenes. He stood up on the sofa, first clasped his fists at the people behind him, and finally bowed directly to express his gratitude.
For a time, there were cheers in the hall, and mobile phones and cameras were taking photos randomly.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Zongbao was smiling all over his face. Speaking of which, he was actually playing a trick just now, and his words were very vague when he dropped the hammer.
His original words were "This is an authentic painting by a famous Northern Song Dynasty landscape artist", and he did not say that it must be Xu Daoning's.
In this way, even if Zheng Congyuan comes back to look for Zhang Zongbao in the future, he can still insist that it is the original work of Xu Daoning. I just said it is the original work of a famous Northern Song Dynasty landscape artist. As for which famous artist it is, I don't know.
You must know that this is an unknown painting. Didn’t you know that before taking the picture?
Who can guarantee the authenticity of the anonymous painting?
It can only be said that it was identified as Zuixu.
But identification is just an inference.
As for the painted silk paintings going to the laboratory for dating analysis, he is not afraid, because he has already done it, it is from the Northern Song Dynasty, but it is not the authentic work of "Zui Xu" Xu Daoning. No one dares to be 100% sure. After all, no one has done it in the Northern Song Dynasty.
At the same time, I watched how the painting was completed.
"Now I announce that the filming will stop for fifteen minutes so that everyone can take a rest. In addition, I, Lao Zhang, have also prepared some coarse tea and cakes for all the distinguished guests. If you don't mind, you can eat as you like.
"In a quarter of an hour, there are still many treasures waiting for you. Let's see you later." After Zhang Zongbao finished speaking, he stepped off the stage and went to the lounge. He was also in his sixties, so it was more or less appropriate to host an auction.
I am unable to do what I want, but for the sake of Baoyuan’s future, I can only grit my teeth and persevere.
Baoyuan has prepared a lot of items for auction this time, reaching more than a hundred items. Among them, the auction in the main hall is estimated to be between thirty and fifty items. Due to time constraints, in the afternoon, there will be separate halls for miscellaneous items, calligraphy and painting, and porcelain.
Wait until they are auctioned separately, otherwise they won’t be able to finish the auction at all, let alone the “market” part.

"Miss Pei, I didn't expect you to know this stupid brother like me?"
When Xu Duofu saw Pei Yuqin wiping his sweat next to Shen Yu like a little bird, it was as if he had discovered some big secret. A gossipy expression appeared on his face, and he even disparaged Shen Yu.
Pei Yuqin smiled generously: "Shen Yu calls me sister, of course we know each other, and Shen Yu is not stupid either. Mr. Xu, Mr. Zheng, you guys chat, I'll go to the dressing room."
Nodding politely with Zheng Congyuan, Pei Yuqin picked up her handbag and walked towards the dressing room marked "Men Only". It was specially prepared by Baoyuan Auction for female guests to touch up their makeup and whisper among best friends. Male guests would definitely not be able to enter. Go, because there are four female security guards with a height of 1.7 meters standing at the door.

Pei Yuqin would never talk to other men in front of the person she likes. This was the case with the heartless man. Unfortunately, although she had done her best, she still failed to guard against the other person's philandering.
"Shen Yu, you're a good boy. Gao Gu Yizhihua, Princess Pei, Pei Yuqin, who is known as the cold and cold devil, Miss Pei actually wipes the sweat of this boy like you, you are really impressive to my brother!" Xu Duofu put his arms around Shen Yu's shoulders, with a teasing expression on his face.
Shen Yu explained: "We are just ordinary friends. In fact, we have only known each other for a short time."
"Ordinary friend? Who are you coaxing? Why doesn't she wipe my sweat?" Xu Duofu's face was full of disbelief.
"I can't help you if you don't believe me, but why are you so gossipy, fat man? Last time I saw several entertainment newspapers and periodicals in your car. It turns out that you are also chasing stars. I wonder which female star you like? Also, my sister-in-law knows Don't you know?" Shen Yu also teased the other party.
Xu Duofu smiled awkwardly at first, and then said seriously: "I am not gossiping, but I am sincerely advising you on your marriage. If you can really catch up with Miss Pei, you will not have to work hard in this life.< /p>
"You have to know that his father is one of the super rich people in Chuzhou, the shipping king Pei Shao. More than half of the private freighters running in Qingyun River belong to her family. The family's transportation company also has hundreds of trucks. They are absolutely top-notch. Rich businessman."
Shen Yu was stunned when he heard this: "I said that the millions of antiques in Sister Qin's house were placed outside casually. It turned out to be the daughter of the Pei family."
Xu Duofu looked around and said, "Stop pretending to be stupid with me here and tell me honestly, how did you two know each other?"
