Although Jin Yu said so, no one is willing to come up to auction their own things. Those things that can be carried with them are generally extremely precious, and no one is willing to sell them for charity.
Just when everyone thought there would be no one, a man suddenly came on stage and said with a smile, "I do have something that I just carry with me. It's not of much use. It would be good to use it for some charity."
As he spoke, he took out something that looked like a compass or some kind of bronze.
"I saw this in an antique street before. I thought it was good and bought it. It should be an old compass. The various symbols on it looked very complicated to me. I looked for some experts in this field, but no one looked at it.
I understand, I can only say that it must be a very old object."
The man handed the thing to Jin Yu and explained with a smile, "I have been studying this thing for several years and still can't figure it out. I can only say that it is an old thing, but I can't guarantee whether it is genuine or not. If someone is willing to buy it, I will authenticate it later.
If it’s not worth it, that has nothing to do with me, I’ll explain it in advance.”
Jin Yu carefully looked at the compass in his hand. There was still some patina on it, as if it had been corroded. He had also seen many rare treasures, and was even a master in this field. His eyesight was naturally not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Therefore, we have a general judgment about the year and material of this thing.
"It has a history of at least several hundred years. The material should be bronze, like a compass, but I have seen compasses from the Warring States Period, but there is no such symbol?"
Jin Yu was also a little confused. He himself couldn't understand some of the symbols on it. They were completely ghost drawings with no rules at all.
However, at this time, in Hao Ren's mind, the voice of the system suddenly sounded a little urgent, "If you find the fixed astrolabe, the host must get it."
"Um?"
Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, a little confused, "A fixed astrolabe? What is this?"
"If the host can get it, he will naturally understand the function of this thing."
However, the system stopped talking, leaving Hao Ren in suspense.
Hao Ren's eyes flickered. To be honest, it would take a long time to deal with the system. This was the first time he saw the system so excited.
He understood that this thing must be extremely precious. After all, even if it was the Sky-Permeable Stone just now, the system was just a normal reminder.
I didn’t say it was extremely easy to get.
Many people below looked at the two people on the stage with some curiosity, and some even stretched their necks to get a closer look.
Jin Yu thought for a moment and used a projector to enlarge the compass on the screen so that everyone could see it clearly.
"This thing belongs to Mr. Sui. I took a look. There should be nothing wrong with the material and year. It is indeed an old thing from the past. But I don't know what it is. It's not easy to price this kind of item. You can bid as you like.
, if Mr. Sui thinks it is okay, then the transaction will be successful."
Jin Yu explained to everyone.
These are auction rules for some unknown items, and this is a charity auction, which is a little different from a regular auction.
He can only say that this thing is an old object, but an old object whose function is unknown, looks shabby, and its function is not as good as an old vase that was decorated in the past.
Many people are looking at the compass on the projector. There are many grids on it, with 360 degrees of no dead ends. There are some patterns in each grid. There are also some lines on the compass, which are very complicated, as if they were randomly carved.
However, there is a small hole in the middle of the compass. It seems that something is missing and it looks a bit incomplete.
Guo Lin looked at the compass curiously and frowned, "Is it a clock from the past?"
"Return the clock, how could there be any watches in the past? We all just watch the weather, okay?"
Fan Zhengyi said angrily.
"It feels like a sundial, but not so small."
"Is it a compass used in navigation in the past, or a magic weapon used to catch monsters?"
Li Peifu also guessed.
After hearing what they said, Hao Ren couldn't help complaining in his heart, "It's just getting more and more outrageous."
He had a sense of superiority in his heart. No one else knew what it was, but he knew that this kind of happiness was unimaginable to others.
Even now he wanted to jump out, point at everyone present, and say loudly, "A bunch of ignorant people, this thing is called a fixed astrolabe!"
It's a pity that he can't. The good thing is to make a fortune silently.
Hao Ren still understands this.
Therefore, Hao Ren's eyes flashed and he looked at the items on the stage, already classifying them as his own.
This kind of thing is not worth discussing for a long time. If you like it, bid it. If you don't like it, then reject it.
The price started from 10,000, and soon reached 100,000. There were fewer and fewer bidders, all of whom were interested in antiques.
Hao Ren thought for a moment and said to Guo Lin beside him, "Brother, please give me a price and buy it for me."
Hearing this, Guo Lin was stunned, but he turned around and glanced at Tian Ming sitting behind him. He smiled and nodded, "It seems that I am also more interested in these things, no problem."
"There is an antique market in Magic City. If Brother Hao is really interested, I will take you to have a look some other day. Although there are many fakes there, there are also some people who have bought genuine ones."
Fan Zhengyi said with a smile.
"Really, that's great. Brother Fan, please send me the address later and we can go and see it another day."
He is now interested in these things because he found that the system seems to be particularly concerned about these things.
Just like the crystal stones last time, I exchanged them for a lot of good things from the system.
"One hundred and fifty thousand."
Guo Lin made a bid. When the people around him saw the price, they all shook their heads and stopped raising the price.
Guo Lin thought that no one would bid against him, and he felt too relaxed.
The next moment, a clear voice appeared, "I'll give you two hundred thousand."
Guo Lin, Hao Ren and others all looked over in shock and found that the bidder was Jin Yi. At this time, the eldest lady of the Jin family stood up with a smile on her face and said, "Sorry, Mr. Guo, I am also quite cautious about this thing."
I love you so much that I can’t give up my love to you.”
"Haha, it's okay. Everyone likes it. Let's see who pays the higher price."
Guo Lin said with a smile, he didn't believe that an old antique who didn't know its function could be promoted to the sky.
"Three hundred thousand."
"Four hundred thousand."
"Five million."
"Six hundred thousand"
…
However, as the bidding went on, Guo Lin's expression gradually changed. It wasn't that he was worried about the money. He didn't care about hundreds of thousands, but he felt that Jin Yi seemed to be targeting him.
Everyone else had stopped and looked at this scene with some astonishment. Everyone could understand that Hao Ren and Tian Ming were bidding just now. There were some conflicts between the young people and they were trying to set each other off, but Guo Lin was from Puyun Investment.
The boss of Jin Yi is one of the richest men in the country, and Jin Yi is the eldest daughter of the Jin family. Why do these two people seem to be in a relationship?
Guo Lin was entrusted by Hao Ren. He couldn't refuse to bid just for this little money. On Jin Yi's side, some elders of the Jin family frowned.
"Xiaoyi, what's wrong with you? You're just an antique that doesn't know its function. Guo Lin is not an ordinary person. Do you need to offend him like this?"
A middle-aged man with a beard said, this is Jin Yi's second uncle.
Jin Yi also smiled bitterly, "No, second uncle, I really like this compass and want to buy it back and study it."
"Stop bidding. It's not worth fighting Guo Lin for such a small thing."
Jin Yi's second uncle shook his head and stopped her from doing this.
People in a big family must consider the gains and losses in everything they do, and you can't just do whatever you want.
Hearing this, Jin Yi glanced at the compass on the stage helplessly, and sat down in frustration. However, she glared at Hao Ren. She also heard just now that Hao Ren asked Guo Lin to help bid.
If it weren't for Hao Ren, this thing would definitely be in his hands.
Guo Lin saw the other party sit down and stopped bidding, and his face looked better.
Jin Yu on the stage felt relieved when he saw this scene. Just now he was a little bit blaming Jin Yi for being so unwise. This was not like her behavior.
"Now it's one million, is there anyone with a higher bid?"
Jin Yu asked three times in a row, but no one said anything. First, there was no need to offend Guo Lin, and second, this thing was completely unworthy of such a high price.
Mr. Sui was also very satisfied. When he bought it, it was only five thousand yuan. Now he sold it for one million yuan, and the value increased two hundred times. Although the money was not in his hands, it was equivalent to spending two hundred yuan.
Wan did charity and earned a lot of face.
This is like using 5,000 yuan to pretend to be a 2 million guy.
After the auction ended, no one came on stage again. Jin Yu said with a smile, "Those who just took the items can go to the side room to pay and get the items. All subsequent payments will be informed of the specific whereabouts and publicized, so you don't have to worry."
There is no need for the dignified Jin family to ruin the reputation of their centuries-old family just for this little money.
"New delicacies have been prepared for you outside, you can continue to enjoy them."
After Jin Yu finished speaking, he walked down.
Guo Lin smiled and said, "Let's go get something."
The payment process went smoothly and the other party issued a receipt for them.
The things Hao Ren bought were small and could be held with two hands. Looking at the Pixiu and compass in his hands, Hao Ren felt a little excited.
He put the things in the box and gave them to Daniel for safekeeping.
"Are you planning to leave now?"
Fan Zhengyi asked, "Are you free tonight? I'll be the host and we'll have a meal together."
"Indeed, we haven't seen each other for a while, so we just wanted to chat."
Li Peifu said with a smile.
Hao Ren nodded, "I'll go back first. Send me the location. I'll be there soon."
Now he can't wait to go back and figure out the functions of these two items.
It cost three million, but at least it had to be worth the money.
Hao Ren did not stay and was about to leave with Daniu and Hao Yi.
However, before they had gone far, Jin Jiu appeared in front of them again. Looking at each other, Hao Ren's face darkened.
"Why, do you, the Jin family, really want to keep us?"
Jin Jiu's face was pale and he was being supported by a woman on the side. It was obvious that his injuries were only minor. He showed a wry smile and looked at Hao Ren, "This incident is all my fault and has nothing to do with the Jin family. I, Jin Jiu, would like to express my sincere gratitude to you all."
I apologize and I hope you can forgive me for my recklessness."
As he spoke, he bent down and bowed to several people.
Seeing his attitude, Hao Ren was a little surprised, but he felt relieved and his cold expression softened, "Forget it, we don't want to pursue this matter. It ends here."
As he said that, he and a few people wanted to cross over, but were stopped by the other party again, "Our old man wants to meet this friend. I wonder if he would like to be rewarded?"
Hao Ren was a little angry at first, but when he heard this, he was even more surprised, "Your old man from the Jin family wants to see me?"
"That's right."
Jin Jiu nodded. Although he didn't know the reason, others were not qualified to question the old man's affairs.
