Chapter 1118 - It's Just a Number!
With the host's introduction of the first lot, stating its value and some of the meanings it represents, all the buyers in the auction hall were interested, and their eyes looked at the red silk cloth lifted by the beautiful lady hostess, revealing its appearance, which was a dragon-shaped jade carving, which only needed to be extended into a combination that could be made into an umbrella handle or a cane head, or a gear lever in a car.
Of course, this is a collection, it will only be used to combine some meaningful things, collect it, if there is really that kind of local tyrant, I don't care about the value behind this collection, it is purely for a period of time, and it can also extend many things.
The value of this thing lies in the fact that it is thousands of years old and is said to be the royal gift of a certain royal family.
This first treasure caters to the mainstream buyers of the venue, and more than four-fifths of the people here are Western faces, which means that they are very fond of some jade antiques from the royal family.
As the host began to signal, people in the venue raised signs one after another, and there were staff members constantly reminding the host above.
The auction hall is very large, with a capacity of seven or eight hundred people, and on average, there are 4-6 buyers in a group, which means that there are more than 100 groups of buyers here.
This is already a very considerable number, there are so many buyers, it means that it will take more than a hundred auction items to be evenly distributed among each wave, but this is obviously impossible, that means that tonight's auction will be very fiercely competitive, if you don't want to go back empty-handed, almost every treasure must be taken seriously.
Even Müller was no exception, and in this case, he and Mrs. Müller exchanged views in a low voice, looking at the auction table with one pair of eyes, and also looking at the enlarged picture on the main screen and the video content of the treasure, rotating the content of the object from multiple angles.
There were screens in the middle and both sides of the venue, so that the first lot could be seen from every corner of the venue.
There have been more than ten batches of buyers in a row, and the transaction currency is also the mainstream national currency, and the price has risen to 680,000 M yuan, which has exceeded Lin Zhen's expectations, this thing can be worth so much money, or there are too many rich people in the world, it is just a simple number.
Mueller also raised it once, at 720,000, but unfortunately it was quickly overwhelmed by the sellers behind him, and he did not raise his card again.
After going back and forth like this several times, it was finally auctioned off by the person in the back row, Lin Zhen glanced back, and it was auctioned off by a strange middle-aged man with a foreign face.
Luo Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "These people are really local tyrants, and they would spend so much money for this kind of thing." ”
"It may be a lot of money for you, but for those people, it's a very small amount." Lin Zhen said lightly.
Luo Yu snorted: "Even if there is more money, it will not be used in this regard, it is really a waste." ”
Mueller next to him smiled and said, "Miss Luo, you still try to open your eyes, the amount of treasures in the back will be greater, I'm afraid you will have to be more excited about the numbers." ”
Luo Yu smiled and said, "I really don't understand the local tyrants in your circle. ”
Mueller laughed but said nothing.
This first auction item took more than eleven minutes, which was a bit inefficient.
However, it also means that tonight's competition must be mentally prepared.
As the host introduced again, the second treasure was sent up, the red silk cloth was lifted, and a small jade box appeared on the tray, this thing, it seems to be useless, it can only be auctioned as an ordinary porcelain treasure, but the year is not small, there are more than 600 years, for the real jade collection iron powder, should consider starting.
The starting price was only 180,000 yuan, and after seven or eight waves of people raised their cards one after another, the final price was finalized at 330,000 M yuan, which was auctioned off by an elderly rich woman.
The people nearby all gave her a congratulatory look, no matter whether they were disappointed or not, they gave each other a gentleman's look of encouragement, or even congratulations.
Then several treasures appeared one after another, but none of them were presented, only pictures and video content on the big screen, which were either very heavy and inconvenient to move, or very easy to break and could not be easily moved.
It is very difficult to see the real thing for a treasure of this level tonight, after all, this genuine product is also very careful in defensive measures, and it cannot easily appear in such a crowded situation.
Many buyers saw the pictures and videos, under the leadership of the host, they have raised their cards to bid, light frame is familiar, each buyer quickly made a decision, some intentions will shout out a price code, more than the heart of the price, will stop snapping, so one after another to grab the price, in the end there are always people who feel that it is not worth the price, so give up.
But on this occasion, the number of buyers is so large that there are few unsuccessful auctions.
On a small screen in front of the main screen, three treasures are constantly released in advance, which also allows some people who need to leave their positions temporarily to judge in advance whether they need to snap photos.
But this kind of thing doesn't exist all the time, it's three treasures that are pre-placed every hour.
Muller has put up a bid for almost every treasure, but he has never been auctioned off, because the competition is fierce, and he has not yet seen the treasure that really impresses him.
After a few more treasures, even Lin Zhen and Luo Yu gradually became a little numb, feeling that the people present were playing a game of numbers, opening their mouths to be hundreds of thousands of millions, and even two treasures with a price of tens of millions had already appeared.
On this occasion, it really feels like gold is everywhere.
"Mr. Muller, it's been two hours, and you haven't seen a single one, you won't be here to make soy sauce...... right?" Lin Zhen quipped.
Mueller shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "No way, I can't use it if I have money, the main thing is that I don't see what I like very much, this kind of place, I like every piece and want to collect it, but I really have to pay a lot of money, I still have to wait for what I really like." ”
Luo Yu next to him asked curiously, "What kind of treasures does Mr. Muller like?" ”
"I can't say it, I like it all, but I can't be sure until I see it, sometimes I prefer the eye edge, if it fits, no matter what type it is, I will also consider auctioning it......" Muller's rhetoric made Luo Yu suddenly feel bored, and refocused his attention on the auction table.
Since the auction began, Lin Zhen has been secretly observing René? Maupassant and his wife, as well as Emson and others, were surprised to find that neither of these two groups had ever raised a sign to grab any of the treasures.
"Could it be that these people are here with a very clear purpose?"
"What the hell is it for?"
