The competition at the auction was quite fierce. The starting bid for the fifth auction item was five million, and the final transaction price was fifteen million.
Compared with the first auction item, which was 500,000 yuan higher than the starting price, by the fifth item, it was already 10 million yuan higher.
The main event slowly began. The starting price of the official kiln porcelain that Cheng Zhenghai was interested in was twelve million.
Cheng Zhenghai was obviously an expert in this field. At the beginning, he didn't hold up placards at all. As fewer and fewer people held up placards, he increased the price slightly.
Despite this, there were still three people who were clinging to the offer, and Cheng Zhenghai's price increase was simply incomparable to those of them.
When the price reached 20 million, Cheng Zhenghai cursed and did not hold up the sign again.
These people were a little crazy, Cheng Zhenghai said straight away that it was not worth that much money.
Yang Liwen couldn't help but laugh when she saw Cheng Zhenghai saying it was not worth it, but with a disappointed look on his face: "I didn't expect Mr. Cheng to admit defeat sometimes, it's rare!"
Cheng Zhenghai smiled awkwardly. He had indeed given up. He liked the porcelain and believed that the value of the porcelain could increase. However, he was a businessman after all, and interests came first. Interests could only give way to interests.
If it is too expensive, Cheng Zhenghai will feel it is not worth it.
Everyone has greed, and Cheng Zhenghai also has it. However, Cheng Zhenghai knows when to stop and when to stop. This is why he has been growing his business bigger and bigger for so long.
Many people are driven by greed and do not know how to step back from the brink in time. As a result, they sink deeper and deeper, and in the end, they are unable to extricate themselves.
Cheng Zhenghai could pay 30 million, 40 million, or even 50 million, but he would not do so. He felt that the porcelain from this official kiln was worth at most 20 million. If the price exceeded this, he was ready to throw it away.
Right! Even if the value exceeds the auction price after many years, this is not in line with the principle of investment.
In the past, we collected things for fun, but now we collect them to make money.
Cheng Zhenghai is a person who can take advantage of the value curve to the extreme. It is precisely because of this that his wealth has continued to accumulate to its current scale.
The auction price of 30 million was sold. Although Cheng Zhenghai felt it was a pity, he was also glad that he did not continue to participate.
If he got it for 30 million, he wouldn't be happy today.
There are not many people who can make good choices. Cheng Zhenghai did a very good job in this regard.
The person who finally won the photo of the official kiln porcelain had no smile on his face. Instead, he glared at the guy with whom he had an extremely fierce fight just now.
Yang Liwen's cell phone rang. She raised her head and glanced behind her. Someone greeted her. She smiled slightly and said hello.
Yang Liwen turned around, looked at the message sent by the person just now, a smile appeared on her face, and handed the phone to Cheng Zhenghai: "Mr. Cheng, it seems that your decision is right."
Cheng Zhenghai took the phone and saw a piece of news. The two people on the news seemed to be the ones who had just competed for the official kiln.
The person who photographed the official kiln porcelain was the cousin of another person, and the two families were in the news because they were fighting over his grandfather's property.
This official kiln porcelain was a porcelain that their grandfather liked very much. There are only two of the same porcelain in existence. Because they are rare, the price is expensive. One of them was already collected by their grandfather, and they took pictures of the other one just for the sake of it.
To please grandpa.
Cheng Zhenghai smiled, luckily he didn't go crazy like them, otherwise, the 30 million yuan might not be enough.
Then several more items were sold one after another, and Cheng Zhenghai and Yang Liwen also got their favorite auction items at satisfactory prices.
Now, finally we have arrived at the jade sign.
The starting price is three million.
Chen Wei couldn't help but look sideways and looked at Cheng Zhenghai. It seemed that Cheng Zhenghai's news was very accurate!
Cheng Zhenghai patted Chen Wei on the shoulder proudly: "If you don't do your homework well, you will definitely be taken as a scapegoat when you come here. I'm not afraid to tell you that there are a lot of scapegoats here, and few of them really know how to collect."
Cheng Zhenghai believes that collecting is definitely not to buy collections blindly, but to be selective, purposeful, and targeted. Of course, the most important thing is to understand the true value of the collection.
Take the Ming Zhengde official kiln porcelain as an example. The person who took the photo may not be happy now. The 20 million yuan has already been taken into account by Cheng Zhenghai, who has taken into account the appreciation space in the next few years. In other words, the person spent an extra 1,000 yuan.
Wan bought a piece of porcelain worth less than 20 million. Of course, unless that person is very lucky and the value of the porcelain skyrockets in a short period of time, otherwise, he will definitely lose money. If he uses it as a gift, then
I lost 10 million.
I guess that guy's heart must be bleeding right now. It's no wonder, there are only a few people who really know what he's doing.
As soon as it started, Chen Wei raised his card.
Cheng Zhenghai looked at it and became anxious: "What are you doing?"
"Bidding!"
"Brother, don't make trouble. I'll take the photo for you. That's not how bidding works."
"What's that like? Look, no one is competing with me." Chen Wei was very happy. He was probably the only person who really understood the value of this jade medal.
Chen Wei didn't want to buy it for collection, nor did he want to give it away. What he valued was the medicinal value of this jade tablet. When he thought of the words "invulnerable to fire and water, invulnerable to a hundred poisons", Chen Wei got excited.
He has tasted the benefits. He has almost never lost a fight now, and the strange changes happening in his body are also deeply attracted to him.
For example, in terms of sexual performance, it is much stronger than before.
Of course, the benefits are not limited to this. When Xing Zhengzhi said he was cleaning the marrow and cutting the bones, he thought it was a joke, but he didn't expect it to be true. Chen Wei felt like he had been reborn.
If you consume jade powder for more than a year, it will basically be invulnerable to water, fire and all kinds of poisons. Does that mean that jade powder can be taken multiple times, and the effect will be better as time goes by?
Chen Wei still can't understand what it feels like to be invulnerable to water and fire, and immune to all poisons. The changes in his body are already very useful to him.
"Three million once, three million twice, three million!"
Chen Wei looked ahead nervously, waiting for the hammer to fall and the deal to be completed.
"Four million, there is a beautiful woman over there who offers four million!"
Chen Wei was stunned and looked back. Less than five meters behind Chen Wei, there was a beautiful woman sitting. She had long flowing hair, a white and smooth face, and that beautiful face was so beautiful that it made people tremble.
, wearing a white women's shirt, maybe because her breasts were too big, the shirt was completely stretched out, and the buttons seemed likely to fall apart at any time.
The beautiful woman was also looking at Chen Wei, with a smile on her face and looking particularly charming. She stretched out her hand in a gesture of invitation.
