Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 480 You are a younger brother!
"That watt is so high at one bid? Is it inevitable?"

"Hmph, the British are very cunning. Does he think he can frighten off competitors by doing this?"

"That is, how can our Chinese national treasure be taken away by the British so easily?"

"I paid [-] oceans!"

At this moment, a wealthy Chinese businessman began to bid.

Watt thought for a while, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he bid again: "[-] oceans!"

This is called direct capping. Duobao Pavilion's quotation is [-] oceans, and Watt directly drove to [-] oceans.

The people around Watt all looked solemn.

Because of the quotation from Duobao Pavilion, the profit below [-] is guaranteed without loss.But after [-], you have to think about it.

But China's national treasure fell into the hands of foreigners so easily, and many people were unwilling.Finally, a wealthy Chinese businessman asked the price again: "9 yuan!"

"Wow, ninety thousand?"

There was an uproar at the scene.

Duan Wu glanced at the Chinese businessman and thought: I forgot a little bit, there are many patriots present.It would be a bit unbearable if they were cheated.

In other words, these fake antiques, the Dragon Boat Festival originally wanted to sell to foreigners.

So Duan Wu laughed and said, "It's [-] oceans. This gentleman is really insightful. This is a national treasure. In China, it may only be worth [-] oceans, but in foreign countries, it is a priceless treasure.

I appreciate the vision of this British friend very much, but unfortunately, it is us Chinese who have higher prices.

9 once, [-] twice,."

"I paid 12 oceans!"

Watt gritted his teeth and directly called out a sky-high price.

"12 oceans is suddenly higher than [-] oceans!"

"The British are really rich and powerful!"

"Damn it, China's national treasure, is it just taken away by the British?"

"Grandma, I want to buy the house and the national treasure."

"Wait, there are still treasures behind. We can't fight the British at this time."

"Yes, yes, yes, there is still in that box. We can't be impulsive!"

···················
Everyone discussed it, and no one bid again.

Watt was very happy and laughed triumphantly.

But at this time, Duan Wu directly made a decision and said: "Congratulations to this friend from England, you have won a tripod of Wen Wang, and someone will seal up the tripod."

"Yes!"

There are wooden boxes prepared by the guards, made of rosewood.Wen Wang Ding was put in on the spot, along with the authentication certificate issued by Duobao Pavilion and so on.

At this time, Watt was very relieved.Sit and wait for the second treasure.

Others are also waiting to see.Because the treasure chest looks huge.Everyone felt that there would definitely not be just one Wen Wang Ding in there.

And sure enough, the Dragon Boat Festival did not disappoint everyone.He took out another landscape painting and said: "This is Mr. Zheng Banqiao's painting when he was young. Everyone knows that Mr. Zheng Banqiao is best at painting bamboo.
Most of his bamboo paintings are freehand brushstrokes, which are completed in one go. The brush is strong and round, refreshing and flying.The bamboos he painted are sparse in appearance, thin in brushwork, and have an extraordinary and refined style, so they are also called "Zheng Bamboo".

But the most important thing is that the bamboos painted by this old man are very full of life, with each branch and leaf. No matter whether it is a dry bamboo, a new bamboo, a single branch of a cluster of bamboo, or a bamboo in the wind, or a bamboo in the rain, they are all full of changes. wonderful.

Like bamboo, the heights are scattered, the shades are dry and prosperous, and the touches and dyes are all exquisite.The painting style is fresh and beautiful, super-dusty and refined, giving people a sense of difference.
He once wrote to himself: "There are those who are in the paper, and those who are outside the paper. This time, there are more bamboo poles than bamboo leaves."

But this old man didn't draw bamboo from the very beginning. He painted landscapes when he was young.

It's just that at that time, his painting skills were not very mature, so he didn't have much reputation.

However, there are very few landscape paintings handed down by Mr. Zheng.Therefore, Duobao Pavilion quoted 12 oceans, which is also a very high price.Everyone can take a look. "

As Duan Wu said, he asked two guards to unfold the gloves for everyone to see.

Everyone was very surprised when they saw the landscape map.It would be no surprise if someone took out a pair of bamboos by Zheng Banqiao, because the old man painted the most bamboos in his life.But who has seen landscape paintings?And it's an early work?
The early paintings are actually not very good, but the more they are like this, the more valuable they are.Just like coins.

There is an amount on this coin, one hundred is one hundred, fifty is fifty, and twenty is twenty.He is worth that much.

However, it will be different if you have a wrong edition coin. The 100 yuan is likely to be tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

This money is a wrong version, theoretically it cannot be spent, but it is worth more.

And the same is true for the paintings of some famous artists.The painting style in the later period is mature, and the paintings are very exquisite, but his value is so much.On the contrary, the early paintings, even if they are painted like elementary school students, are far beyond the value of other paintings.

So after the introduction of the Dragon Boat Festival, everyone present became alive.Some people even shouted: "What's the starting price of this painting? Let's get started!"

Duan Wu said: "Okay!"

"I paid 14 oceans!"

At this moment Watt raised his hand high.

Duan Wu was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Sir, you have to give others a chance?"

Watt proudly said: "I don't have any strengths in this life, except that I have a lot of money. Hahaha! Is there any bidder? Hahaha! Who dares to grab something from Watt? I'll kill him with money! Hahaha!."

"Damn, why are the British so rich?"

"Damn it, is this national treasure going to be snatched by the British again?"

"We can't just let him go so cheaply. Let's get together and buy this painting. We can't let the national treasure go out."

After discussing with several rich merchants, they bid again: "15 oceans!"

Seeing this, the Dragon Boat Festival quickly said: "15 oceans, already 15 oceans. But I believe that the value of this painting will be far more than that. Although I don't know how to paint, I know the truth that rare things are more expensive .And I also believe that everyone here is a person who knows treasures."

"16 oceans!"

Watt smiled and raised his hand, obviously he just wanted to overwhelm the other party with the price.

Several wealthy Chinese businessmen frowned and were negotiating the price increase.But at this moment, General Philip shouted: "I'm paying 18 oceans, Mr. Duanwu, can you give me this face?"

Duan Wu said with a smile: "Mr. Philip, I really want to give you this face, but this is an auction, the highest bidder wins, and I have no choice. But I think the price is about the same. If this Mr. Watt can let you Here it is, then he is yours."

Watt said proudly: "I will not give it to a Yankee who doesn't understand art. I pay 20 oceans, Mr. Philip, you'd better do what you can. Compared with my financial resources, you are a younger brother!"
