"Two thousand guans." Shen Jungao waved his sleeves and said, "Chen Shizhong is really courageous, but this painting is destined to be won by someone."
"Oh?" Chen Bogu laughed with interest, "Two thousand one hundred guan."
In his eyes, Shen Jungao was more like a prey than an opponent. No matter how much Shen Jungao gritted his teeth and called out, Chen Bogu would calmly add a hundred dollars without asking for the price.
Shen Jungao was desperately trying to make Shen Jungao look unhappy, but there was nothing he could do.
Shen Jun raised his eyebrows. Although he had never seen this way of buying things before, it didn't mean that he couldn't see it clearly. Obviously, this way, which is always more expensive than yours, can easily make people feel at a loss, and they can only keep moving up.
After raising the price, and finally after a long period of tug-of-war, the bidder may become angry and give a price that he or she will regret if he thinks about it later.
In this way, even if the price follower does not actually buy what he wants, he can still make his opponent bleed a lot, and to a certain extent, he will not suffer a loss.
Now Chen Bogu obviously had this calculation in mind. Even if he couldn't win the scroll, as long as he could make the East Palace spend money, Chen Bogu would still have achieved something.
"Why bother Chen Shizhong? If you and I drag it on like this, there won't be any good results, or even no results." Shen Jungao sneered and said, "I am just interested in this painting. If Chen Shizhong simply wants to let
What's the point of raising the price if someone is unhappy? If the scroll falls into the hands of the waiter, it becomes a piece of waste paper."
Chen Bogu didn't wait for Shen Jungao to finish his words, then he raised his hands to the people around him and said loudly: "Although a certain Chen Bogu is not as rich as Shen Gongxue, he still has a good eye for collecting and appreciating. If this scroll is lucky enough to fall into the hands of a certain person,
You know how to 'love the fragrance and cherish the jade', so Mr. Shen can rest assured, and so can everyone present!"
"Yes, Chen Shizhong is also full of knowledge. Mr. Shen's words are a bit biased." Lu Qiong, who was standing in the crowd, said with a smile.
When Lu Qiong opened his mouth, the eyes of many people around him became a little complicated. Everyone could see that the dispute on the stage was not a dispute over a painting, but a game between the East Palace and the governor of Yangzhou.
Part of it, and it was impossible for Lu Qiong to not see clearly what everyone could see clearly. At this time, it was of great significance for him to help Chen Bogu.
This means that Lu Qiong has revealed her identity.
Suddenly I thought of many echoes around me. There were people like Chen Shujian and Chen Shucheng who were openly the governor of Yangzhou, and there were also some people who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to join forces. After all, there are not many games like this that are openly waiting for everyone to choose sides.
There are so few, so everyone knows now is the time to seize the opportunity.
Of course, there were many voices of opposition, but because the two adults Zhou Que and Fu Yi from the East Palace were still watching with smiles, there were not many voices of opposition. After all, the East Palace looked calm and calm, and everyone was not in a good mood.
Move forward.
What's more, what Chen Bogu said is correct. Although he is not as tall as Shen Jun, he is still relatively famous for his poems and articles. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be in charge of the Imperial College. Therefore, it is not easy to refute and belittle him in this regard.
.
It's really a confusing stalemate.
Pei Zilie and Xiao Shilian had their eyes fixed on Shen Jungao. As young people, they also hoped that Shen Jungao would finally be able to win this painting at a reasonable price. They would not only get what they wanted, but also severely attack Chen Bogu's arrogance.
And Li Xingchen slowly took two steps forward: "Two adults, what is Mr. Shen's bottom line?"
At this time, Shen Jungao on the stage had already started to increase the price again. Obviously he also understood that under the current price, Chen Bogu would not be able to give in, so he simply continued to raise the price. Although Chen Bogu's face became increasingly gloomy, he continued to chase after him. However, the price increase has not stopped.
"The East Palace has been established for a long time. Even if the Shen family cannot afford it, the East Palace can help the Shen family share the burden," Fu Yi said carefully, "It's just that... Mr. Shen is a scholar and has a hobby for this scroll. The arrogant master, who knows him..."
Li Xingchen sighed quietly, and Zhou Que, who was standing in front, lowered his voice and said: "Xu Xiaomu really has good intentions and captured every detail. He even understood the character of brother Ji Gao clearly. This is A trap that we will fall into no matter how careful we are..."
"Master Zhou also noticed it?" Li Xingchen raised his eyebrows.
Zhou Que nodded slightly: "I felt strange about this gathering before. Xu Xiaomu would definitely not exhibit a very precious painting at this time for no reason, but since I was invited by Xu Xiaomu, I naturally had to come. I didn’t expect that there was something really fishy about it.”
"Now Mr. Shen is certainly bitten by Chen Bogu, but Chen Bogu himself may be riding a tiger and be unable to get off." Fu Yi said in a deep voice, "Now it is a deadlock that is difficult to resolve. It depends on Mr. Shen and Mr. Chen." Who can hold on?"
"No matter who can hold on or who can't, the final loss will definitely be inevitable." Li Xingchen said slowly, "When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman will benefit."
Zhou Que couldn't help but smile bitterly at this time: "It's a pity that this fisherman is Your Majesty. Even if Your Majesty gains benefit, there is nothing we can do."
Before Li Xingchen could say anything, Shen Jungao had already loudly announced the new price: "Five thousand coins!"
There was a gasp of air all around. The price jumped directly from 4,000 yuan, indicating that Shen Jungao really wanted to spend a lot of money, or that he wanted to force Chen Bogu to show his bottom line.
This time Chen Bogu couldn't help but frown, and his expression became solemn. Obviously Shen Jungao's sudden price increase also surprised him. More importantly, Shen Jungao's price increase this time was not too much. If Chen Bogu gave up just now , but it is difficult for Shen Jungao to suffer.
Shen Jungao glanced at Chen Bogu provocatively, and Chen Bogu snorted: "Five thousand five hundred strings!"
Are you serious? Shen Jungao cursed secretly in his heart. If he was not a scholar, but a general, he would have rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward to beat him. He took a deep breath. , Shen Jungao naturally understands that this has now changed from the original stalemate into a competition of psychological quality and will.
"Six thousand guan!" Shen Jungao sneered and said without hesitation, he added 500 guan.
When the price has reached this level, there is no big difference between having or not having 500 guan. After Shen Jungao finished speaking, his face looked a little ferocious. After all, compared to the initial 1000 guan, the current 6000 guan is already higher. Six times, and all cause and effect are because of this hateful guy in front of you!
Chen Bogu turned a blind eye to Shen Jungao's gaze. Just when he was about to continue speaking, a crisp voice suddenly sounded:
