"One hundred and fifty thousand times! Two hundred and fifty thousand times! Three hundred and fifty thousand times! Deal!"
These sounds are quite pleasant, because women are bidding there, and even the person who is hosting the auction is a woman, that is, the beauty in cheongsam next to Qi Jinshi. As for Qi Jinshi, he is just sitting by and watching.
The auction went smoothly and the procedure was very simple. There was no introduction to the items, just asking for the bid. The competition was not fierce. Often an item would be sold after no more than ten bids.
In this way, in less than half an hour, ten collections were sold, and the value of the transaction was getting higher and higher. From the initial 150,000, it quickly climbed to 5 million.
"Ms. Song, no one is appraising the collectibles at this auction?" Ye Mengying finally couldn't help but express her doubts, "Aren't you afraid of buying fakes?"
"Ms. Ye, do you think you won't buy fakes if someone authenticates them?" Song Yumei smiled faintly and asked.
Ye Mengying was stunned for a moment, then smiled a little sheepishly: "I really don't know, I'm not familiar with this aspect."
"The collecting world is in chaos now. Many fakes are identified as genuine and then put up for auction. A fake painting that costs ten yuan may be sold for ten million. Many so-called antique appraisers have no professional ethics.
, you can paint a painting yourself, and then give each of them hundreds of thousands, and they can also identify your painting as an ancient painting." Song Yumei seemed to have a good impression of Ye Mengying, so she patiently explained this to her.
Collector's confusion.
After glancing at Qi Jinshi, Song Yumei continued: "This is why we came to participate in this kind of private auction. Qi Jinshi is a collector and has always had a good taste. Every time he handles the auction items, he has passed his own appraisal.
, In the past twenty years, no fakes have ever appeared in the collections he has auctioned, so he has established a good reputation. Everyone believes what he says, so naturally there is no need for identification. "
"That's it." Ye Mengying finally understood, "Thank you, Miss Song, for clarifying my doubts."
Song Yumei smiled lightly and said nothing more, but Xia Tian yawned next to her. This auction is really boring. Why hasn't that Tang Bohu painting come out yet?
Next, as the value of the auctioned collections became higher and higher, the auctions became more lively. At this time, Qi Jinshi also began to give a brief introduction to each collection, and the auction speed naturally became relatively slow.
A little bit.
Unknowingly, another hour passed, and during this more than an hour, Song Yumei did not buy anything. It seemed that she came here just for Tang Bohu's authentic works.
"Now is the last piece of collection, Tang Yin's pictures of ladies." Qi Jinshi's words cheered up the sleepy Xia Tian, who finally waited.
Over there, Qi Jinshi was still introducing this painting: "Everyone knows that Tang Yin is good at painting ladies. He painted many paintings of ladies in his life, but unfortunately, there are not many left, and most of them have been damaged.
There are only a handful of them that are well preserved, and the one in my hand is the best preserved one. I won’t go into details about its value, the base price is 50 million!”
Hearing the price, Ye Mengying couldn't help but be stunned. She felt that the price seemed a bit outrageous. However, Song Yumei's face remained as usual, she glanced at Xia Tian and said lightly: "It depends on your performance."
"Five thousand and one million." Xia Tian spoke at this time.
Song Yumei finally frowned at this time. Is this guy deliberately losing her? Although this auction does not limit the amount of a bid increase very high, the minimum increase is indeed 10,000, but for something with such a high price
, this guy added ten thousand to his first bid, which seemed a bit too shabby.
"Miss Song bids 5,010,000, is there anyone else who bids higher?" The cheongsam beauty next to Qi Jinshi glanced at Xia Tian, and said in that sweet voice: "Five thousand and one thousand, five thousand and one."
If it happens twice, will there be a price increase?"
Song Yumei glanced at the others and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Before she came here, she got the news that there were several people who were determined to get Tang Bohu's authentic work. Why was there not even one person competing with her now? This is too strange.
Qi Jinshi also glanced at everyone with surprised eyes, but everyone seemed to turn a blind eye to his look, and no one took any action.
"Is there anyone else raising the price?" The cheongsam beauty glanced at everyone again, and finally continued helplessly: "Fifty-one million for the third time! Deal!" "Congratulations, Miss Song." Qi Jinshi nodded towards Song Yumei,
Her expression was a bit unnatural. This last auction should have been the finale. Logically speaking, it should be a fight to the death, but in fact it was completely different. Song Yumei only increased the price once, and it was only
After adding 10,000 yuan, I got the item. This is really abnormal.
"Thank you, Mr. Qi, for your love." Song Yumei said lightly. This painting originally belonged to Qi Jinshi, so she said this.
"Send the painting to Miss Song." Qi Jinshi ordered the cheongsam beauty beside him.
The beauty in cheongsam nodded and walked towards Song Yumei with the painting in hand.
"What's going on? I wanted to bid the price just now, but suddenly I couldn't make a sound."
"You do this too? Me too!"
"Are you all like this? I also suddenly found that I couldn't speak. I wanted to raise my hands, but I found that I couldn't move either..."
"What the hell, what's going on?"
…
More than a dozen people suddenly started shouting, and the previously orderly room suddenly became a bit noisy and chaotic.
At this moment, Xia Tian took the painting from the cheongsam beauty and smiled at Song Yumei: "How is it? I performed very well, now you should let me chase you, right?"
Before Song Yumei could speak, everyone was already rushing over. One of them asked angrily: "Miss Song, did you do something to us just now?"
"If there is no evidence, it's best not to talk nonsense!" Song Yumei's face turned cold.
The man was stunned for a moment, and then retreated dejectedly. The others looked at each other and did not dare to say anything. They quickly returned to their original positions and sat down obediently.
Song Yumei has always never used her power to overwhelm others when bidding with others. Therefore, many times, people have snatched things from Song Yumei's hands, and no one has been retaliated since. This gave everyone a temporary misunderstanding.
, thought that Song Yumei was easy to talk to, but at this time everyone realized that no matter how easy it was to talk to Song Yumei, she was still the eldest lady of the Song family. If you accuse her without evidence, the consequences could be quite serious.
"Let's see who is worth fifty million." Xia Tian had already opened the painting at this time, glanced at it, and couldn't help but curl his lips, "This woman is too ugly, she is not worth fifty million!"
