Chapter 58 Going to the Auction

Gong Jian told the truth, but it attracted the attention of everyone around him, "To tell you the truth, these are just applying the knowledge my father taught me and occasionally going to the antique market to pick up missing items."

"Haha, Mr. Gong Jian, you are really joking." The manager gave Gong Jian an "I understand you" look.

The young appraiser next to him even snorted disdainfully. Since the manager said that those are genuine items, they must be fine. How could it be possible that they were missed? I often go to the antique market, but I haven't picked them up before. Maybe you can blame me.

Where did you get it from?

He thinks so, and everyone else thinks so too, but the auction house is just a place for buying and selling. As long as the collection they bring is not stolen goods, they will discuss the specific method of the auction with the customer after appraisal.

Next, Gong Jian entrusted the collection to the auction house to go through various procedures, and then returned home. What he has to wait for next is the local auction house’s annual autumn auction, which has the most abundant auction items. His antiques are of high quality and

It has been included in this autumn auction, and I hope there will be knowledgeable buyers who can give me a good price.

When the day of the auction arrived, Gong Jian got up early and prepared to go to the auction house. Just in case, he put on his AR glasses. What he didn't expect was that the goddess Chopra ran out of the glasses.

"Gong Jian, are you going to attend that auction?" Capra looked at Gong Jian maliciously.

The goddess's blond hair was dangling in front of his eyes. Gong Jian suddenly regretted putting on his glasses so quickly. Chopra couldn't refuse, so Gong Jian could only nod his head to express his acquiescence.

"It's really great, I've been looking forward to it these days!" Chopra didn't wait for Gong Jian to speak, her body turned slightly, and the gorgeous clothes in the divine world instantly turned into casual clothes. She picked up Gong Jian and threw it on the

The baseball cap on the sofa was buckled on his head, and he excitedly said to Gong Jian: "Why are you still dazed? Let's go quickly."

"Hey!" What else could Gong Jian say? His glasses were empty, Xiaoya and the little girl Rafi Soma were not there, but this art goddess was waiting for him.

After going out, Gong Jian unexpectedly met Uncle Zhang again, who was about to go out for a walk with his dog. Uncle Zhang and the golden retriever excitedly blinked at Gong Jian, startling Gong Jian, and quickly pulled the goddess to get off.

Upstairs.

When Gong Jian drove his brand new second-hand car into the parking lot, he was surprised to find that the originally empty parking lot had almost no empty seats.

Chopra has sharp eyes, and with her guidance, Gong Jian finally found a parking space. When they walked into the auction hall, Gong Jian realized that he had arrived very late compared to other buyers.

Although Gong Jian came to the auction house today as a seller, now that he has arrived at the auction house, he also plans to see if there are any satisfactory lots today.

So he also signed up for this auction in advance. After receiving the buyer's bidding card, Gong Jian and the goddess walked into the auction hall.

The hall was bustling with people, and many people were whispering to each other, discussing today's auction. Gong Jian found a place where no one noticed, and sat down carefully, with Chopra beside him.

"No. 008?" Goddess Chopra looked at the number plate in Gong Jian's hand and asked curiously: "What is this for?"

"When you want to buy something, hold up a sign, but every time you hold it up, the price will be increased. And once you hold up the sign, you have to ask for it no matter the price, so you have to be very careful when holding this sign." Gong Jian briefly said.

After introducing the bidding process, Joe Chopra nodded as if he understood.

The auction time was coming soon, the auctioneer and other staff in charge of the auction came out, and the auction house immediately became much quieter.

The auctioneer gave a more detailed description of the lot, and then the formal auction began.

The starting price of the first lot was very expensive. Gong Jian could only wait and watch, but Chopra on the side shook his head: "It looks pretty good, but it's not that long ago. Why is it so expensive?"

"Because it was painted by a modern master, ancient things are not necessarily expensive in the world, nor are modern things necessarily cheap," Gong Jian explained.

"Oh!" Chopra nodded. It seemed that this should be the case. The real value of an antique still depends on its artistic level and cherishment.

With the audience frequently raising placards, one lot after another was being sold. Gong Jian stared nervously at the booklet in his hand, as his cloth coins were about to appear.

His inconspicuous-looking cloth coin was packed in a beautiful glass box. The auctioneer described the ancient coin carefully, carefully put the ancient coin aside in front of the stage and started bidding.

At the beginning, the purchase price was very slow, and the price increase was also very small. Gong Jian was nervous. Could it be that no one in this city likes such ancient coins?

However, with the constant encouragement of the auctioneer, the buyers below became excited for a while, and then became faster and faster. The price reduction increased sharply, and the ancient coins with a starting price of 500,000 were quickly sold to 2 million.

"Oh, that money is quite valuable." Chopra saw everyone raising placards desperately, and the warm atmosphere made her excited, and her voice was a little loud.

Gong Jian quickly covered Chopra's lips. The identities of the seller and buyer were confidential, and he didn't want this big mouth to expose his identity.

Chopra's plump red lips moved under Gong Jian's hand. When Gong Jian saw that she was no longer speaking, he put his hand down: "Our seller's identity needs to be kept secret," he whispered.

"Oh!" Chopra lowered her hat. For some reason, two red clouds floated over her face. This Gong Jian was too courageous. He actually dared to cover the goddess's mouth with his hand. Look at me next time.

Looking for an opportunity to teach you a lesson.

The goddess secretly slandered Gong Jian there, but he happily looked at his lot and was repeatedly shouted at high prices. Finally, when the price stopped at 900,000, the auctioneer's hammer struck.

Great! I didn’t expect to pick it up at such a high price! It seems that these buyers in this city are quite generous. Gong Jian feels that he is really satisfied. The price of this ancient coin alone is enough for him.

Initial expenses for expanding the company.

Next, each of the lots entrusted by Gong Jian was sold at a price that he was very satisfied with. Roughly calculated, it was already 5 million. Gong Jian felt that the expenses required for the expansion of the company were enough.

I really have to thank Goddess Chopra. (To be continued)
