My identity as a collector was exposed by the village flower

Chapter 438 Hurt each other
The auction started, and as expected, almost all the participants were Chinese.

From the starting price of 500 million US dollars, all the way to more than 200 million US dollars, it only takes 3 minutes, which is very hot.Every time the Chinese bid for the price, when it is about to end, a Western shit-stirring stick will appear.

"Damn it! Is that Tho? And there's more than one of them." Jackie Chan looked at it and became annoyed.

It can be seen that the Chinese boss wants to take a picture and take it back to his motherland, but some people don't want you to take it back so easily!It's not a big surprise to get in the way.

Regardless of whether the auction company invited it or not, Westerners can still do this in order to disgust the Chinese.

"The way of heaven is reincarnation, just watch! They will suffer later." Fang Xing said lightly.

Raise the price, who wouldn't?

When the crystal skull is auctioned, we can also find someone to lift it!Who is afraid of whom?

In the end, a rich man in Omen auctioned off the set of bronze guards from the Western Zhou Dynasty, which cost more than 2000 million U.S. dollars, or more than [-] million yuan. This price is somewhat high.

"Oh! Miss He has not forgotten his father's last wish!"

It was the young lady of the He family in Ao Island who took the picture of the set of bronze wares.During his lifetime, Mr. He often helped the motherland recover the national treasures that had been lost overseas.

When Miss He came to power, she still followed in her father's footsteps.

This is also a kind of inheritance.

The next auction item came out, and everyone called it a good guy, aren't they afraid of causing public outrage?
This time, the auction is an ancient Egyptian treasure, a pharaoh's golden scepter, still inlaid with gems.

The handle of the scepter is a dog's head, and the forehead and eyes of the dog's head are inlaid with precious stones.This kind of thing, placed in the museum of ancient Egypt, must be the treasure of the town hall!

The starting bid was also $500 million.

"502."

"505."

"520."

……

Compared with just now, this pharaoh's scepter has more bidders, but the price increase is small, thirty to twenty thousand, or ten to two hundred thousand plus.

Five minutes later, the price has not reached 5 million US dollars.

Suddenly, a Chinese offered 1100 million yuan, and the audience fell silent, looking at the Chinese.

They weren't shocked by the price. Which one of the people who came to participate in the auction wasn't rich?Who has no money?However, they always felt that the Chinese was taking revenge for what happened just now.

You disgusted me, I disgusted back.

"Look, am I right?" Fang Xing smiled.

have to!It was on purpose, what can you do?Of course, doing so will only benefit the auctioneer.Now, the people in the auction company must be smiling crookedly, right?

"The price of that scepter can still go up, and it won't be so easy to end. Brother Jackie Chan can also quote a price in a while, and they must be afraid. Otherwise, we want to auction off the next Chinese cultural relics. Probably not too small." Fang Xing said to Jackie Chan and the others.

"Okay, then I'll have a good time waiting."

He is very happy to help his own people!

Sure enough, the stay time of 1100 million was less than ten seconds, and the bidding went up again, becoming 1150 million.

"1155 million!"

Jackie Chan also quoted his own price, which was immediately raised to 1300 million.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became weird.

With Fang Xing and the others doing this, the final price of that scepter reached 2500 million, which made those western collectors itch.

However, after that, they restrained themselves a lot and did not dare to trouble the Chinese any more.

After all, there are still treasures they need in the back. Do you dare to bet that this group of Chinese will not play like this later?
Then came another Chinese cultural relic, a stone carving of the Northern Wei Dynasty, or a Wei stele.

"This Wei stele is very valuable!" Xia Yu couldn't help but said.

When he was in Yunwu Village, he had studied Wei steles, didn't he buy some inscriptions?So I learned some things along the way, and knew the status of Wei Bei in history.

Wei stele is a general term for the inscription stones of the Northern Dynasties during the Southern and Northern Dynasties in China. The Northern Wei Dynasty is the most refined. It can be roughly divided into four types: stele inscriptions, epitaphs, statue inscriptions and cliff inscriptions.

Calligraphy at this time is a transitional calligraphy system that inherits the past and ushers in the future, inheriting the past and opening up the future. Zhong Zhishuai said that Wei Bei "can glimpse the old patterns of the Han and Qin Dynasties from the top, and observe the customs of the Sui and Tang Dynasties from the bottom."

Weibei calligraphy had a great influence on the formation of the later Sui and Tang regular script styles.Calligraphers of all dynasties have also drawn useful essence from it in their innovation and transformation.

For example, the famous ones such as "Stele of Zheng Wengong", "Stele of Zhang Menglong", "Monument of Gaozhen", "Epitaph of Yuanhuai" and "Epitaph of Zhang Xuan", have pioneered the rules of regular script in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

"Hmm! The calligraphy on it is top-notch. That stele should be an orphan. If it's less than 700 million US dollars, you can compete. If it exceeds this amount, forget it!" Fang Xing reminded.

Hearing this, Xia Yu and Jackie Chan knew it well.

The starting price was only US$60, which Fang Xing did not expect.

However, China's baby, the price is soaring fast.

"100."

"150 million!"

"250"

"280"

……

In just one minute, that piece of Wei Bei jumped from 1 to 60 million US dollars. This kind of bidding speed surprised even foreigners.

Sometimes, the Chinese play their lives and really don't take money as money.

In the end, Wei Bei was sold for 720 million US dollars, more than 800 million yuan.This also set a new auction record for Wei Bei, and it is estimated that it will cause heated discussions when it is sent back to China.

The next few pieces in a row are all Chinese cultural relics.

This is to slaughter the Chinese people as fat sheep!

But this is a conspiracy, and it's okay if you don't accept the trick.Don't bid!I am also afraid of being photographed by other foreigners. If the auction fails, that's okay.

As long as you bid, the price will not stop, and it is almost a foregone conclusion to waste money.

The auction reached its climax, and a piece of "Xing Rang Tie" appeared in the auction, which completely shocked the Chinese people, Fang Xing and the others were all dumbfounded.

That is the work of Wang Xizhi!

"Isn't this hidden in the Princeton University Art Museum? What's the matter? The university has no funds?" Xia Yu complained, with a hint of gunpowder in her tone.

"Xing Rang Tie" is Wang Xizhi's cursive script work. Although it is not Wang Xizhi's authentic work, the Tang Dynasty copy is also a rare treasure.The word momentum is pouring down, the physique is open, and the posture is changeable.

Fang Xing frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "No."

"What isn't it?" The people around were puzzled.

"The "Xing Rang Tie" at the auction is not the one in the Princeton University Art Museum." Fang Xing said.

He explained that the one collected by the Princeton University Art Museum has the lacquered inscriptions of Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty and the seal of Xuanhe. It was once in the collection of Wu Ting in the Ming Dynasty. Pavilion "horoscope.

But the one in front doesn't have these, so it's obviously not the same one.

"No? That's better. Do you see a copy from that period?"

"It's hard to say, let's take a picture first." Fang Xing said.

It's hard to say it out of the mouth, but in fact, I already know the real background of the "Xing Rang Tie" in my heart.

There are postscripts by Chu Suiliang on the works, which shows that they are at least Tang Dynasty copies.

Chu Suiliang was the prime minister, politician, calligrapher, and collector of the Tang Dynasty.

There are almost no fakes that can hide from Chu Suiliang's eyes.Therefore, it is very likely that it is Wang Xizhi's authentic work, and because of this, Fang Xing was a little excited.

Apart from the rewards from the system, this was the first time he had come across Wang Xizhi's authentic works in the real world, so it was impossible for him to feel completely uneasy.

Wang Xizhi's calligraphy has the beauty of neutrality, the brushwork is peaceful and natural, without a trace of artificial carvings, it is natural, and is known as "empty spirit".

A person's book quality reflects his character.Wang Xizhi is a free and easy person. As a powerful family, he does not envy the glory and wealth. Instead, he is deeply influenced by Lao Zhuang's Taoism, pursuing a simple, mysterious and natural life.

Perhaps, it was this kind of mentality that created his achievements in calligraphy, reached the pinnacle, and became a generation of calligraphers admired by later generations.

The Chinese people at the scene learned that the "Xing Rang Tie" on the auction block was not the one collected in the Princeton University Art Museum, and most of them lost interest in competing for it.

And the auctioneer seems to have no confidence, the starting price is only 50 US dollars.

Seeing this, Fang Xing did not hesitate.

"60 million!"

An old Chinese man in Tang suit seemed to have some ideas, and started bidding with Fang Xing: "64."

"70!" Fang Xing raised the price slightly, trying not to disturb other people.

He went back and forth with the old Chinese, and brought the "Xing Rang Tie" to 100 million US dollars, but the old Chinese finally gave up, and made a gesture in Fang Xing's direction apologetically.

Fang Xing bowed his hands to him, expressing his acceptance.

Both of them had friendly exchanges, and no unpleasantness occurred.Although the old man's competition made Fang Xing give hundreds of thousands of dollars more, but you can't stop others from robbing yourself, right?

Fang Xing felt that the old man might have also seen Chu Suiliang's postscript, so he had a taste of it.

But seeing Fang Xing's resolute attitude, he didn't give up. The gain outweighed the loss. After all, he was not sure, it was just a guess.

"Is this facsimile important?" Xia Yu asked.

They all subconsciously thought it was a facsimile. After all, even the collections in the Princeton University Art Museum were facsimiles of the Tang Dynasty.

The picture in front of me, no matter how awesome it is, it can't be as awesome as the one collected by the Princeton University Art Museum, right?

Fang Xing smiled and said, "I saw Chu Suiliang's postscript on it."

"Chu Suiliang? Who is it? Is he famous?" Jackie Chan asked.

Fang Xing didn't laugh at him either! More than 90.00% of the people should have never heard of the name Chu Suiliang, even if they occasionally see it in history books, they can't remember it.

"The prime minister, politician, calligrapher, and collector of the Tang Dynasty. I heard that he has very good eyesight. Few calligraphy can escape his eyes. You can tell if it is fake or not."

After hearing this, everyone was taken aback for a moment.

According to this, the "Xing Rang Tie" is at least a copy of the Tang Dynasty, and it is very close to the original.Only in this way can Chu Suiliang approve and write a postscript on it.

For a while, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

It was only sold for $100 million.

"If, I say if! What if it is an authentic work by Wang Xizhi, do you think it is possible?" Suddenly, Xia Yu uttered a terrible thought.

Combined with Fang Xing's strength, everyone was stunned as they never misjudged him.

"No way?"
