Chapter 261 260. Willing to Do Anything
"Chen Ya, when did you change your career? Did you change your career to be a cobbler?"

Lu Qianzi was listening to Chen Ya's serious science popularization, but when she heard Miao Aoxue's words, she turned around with doubts in her eyes: "What cobbler?"

"Professional bragging!" Miao Aoxue giggled.

Zhou Youfu said: "What does this friend do? JDZ's porcelain master?"

"What kind of porcelain cooker? He's not even a vegetable cooker." Miao Aoxue's eyes turned into two crescents with a smile, "He's bragging, you don't need to talk to him."

Miao Aoxue was originally puzzled by the experience of the Yanhuo Building, but after going home and watching a few short videos, she suddenly realized that Chen Ya had noble support behind her.

But you are a short video, and now you are talking about porcelain, is it too big to cross borders?
Miao Aoxue didn't take into her heart what her prospective father-in-law told her.She felt that Chen Ya was a bit of a nouveau riche mentality, and after getting a little achievement, he wanted to brag in front of girls.

Lu Qingxuan ignored Miao Aoxue, and said to Chen Ya: "How do you know they can do it?"

Chen Ya simply said, "I've been to Ru Kiln."

"What is the normal market price of this kind? I want to buy one." Lu Qingxuan said.

Chen Ya looked at her: "Why are you buying this?"

"I have trouble falling asleep."

"Take melatonin if you have trouble falling asleep."

Lu Qingxuan looked annoyed: "I have already developed drug resistance, otherwise why ask this?"

"Now there is a price but no market, and you can't buy it," Chen Ya said, "But if you want it, I will give you one later."

Lu Qingxuan was slightly taken aback, she wanted to ask Chen Ya where he got the qualification to give away casually, but in the end she didn't ask.

Miao Aoxue curled her lips, secretly thinking that Chen Ya was pretending again.

Behind him, Guo Menglin leaned forward and asked Miao Aoxue beside him: "Do you know that woman?"

Miao Aoxue said: "Yes, that is Lu Qingxuan from the Lu family."

"The Lu family." Guo Menglin nodded, his eyes kept turning on Lu Qingxuan, looking at her neck as smooth as porcelain, and at the black hair on the back of her head.

He likes this one, it looks very spicy.

Miao Aoxue supported Guo Menglin and said, "Uncle Guo, do you want this teacup?"

Guo Menglin said frankly: "If the price is only more than 100 million, I might sell it, but the good things are still to come, so we have to save some firepower."

The price quickly rose, and the asking price reached 150 million, and the bidding was still fierce. Guo Menglin gave up after raising the sign a few times.Zhou Youfu didn't raise the sign once.

The fierce battle at the auction site lasted for a long time, and the final hammer price of the azure tea bowl was 208 million.

This made Chen Ya quite satisfied.

When the tea bowl was sold to the queen, she only charged tens of thousands of dollars, and the cost of the tea bowl itself was only a few thousand dollars including labor costs.

It's hard to make money.

"The following is the second lot, a hollow rose ivory folding fan."

As soon as the host finished speaking, the lights in the crystal box came on, and another item appeared in the video.

"This folding fan is carved with pure ivory. When you unfold it, you can see the rose flower that represents Britain. You can see that the skillful hands of the famous craftsman even carved the thorns wrapped around the flower so vividly."

"The Queen of Britain likes this folding fan very much. She carried this folding fan when she attended many solemn occasions, such as the funeral of Prince Capet. At that time, it caused heated discussions on British social media. Few people knew that this folding fan from China."

"Another point that needs to be emphasized is that the ivory used to make this folding fan is taken from an elephant in southern Yunnan that died naturally, so the cost is extremely high. The starting price is 320 million."

As soon as the words fell, many people raised their cards again.

The number of people holding placards this time is slightly less than that of the last tea bowl. After all, not everyone is willing to hold a folding fan made of ivory in their hands, and if they don’t hold it in their hands, it’s pointless to buy a folding fan and go home.

Besides, the starting price is a bit high.

Guo Menglin patted his legs behind him and said, "It's a pity, it's just a folding fan. I really like ivory products. If it's a bracelet or a domino, I can buy one and make a pair at home."

In the end, the price of this folding fan was 401 million, and Chen Ya felt a little regretful.

The cost of this fan is much more expensive than that of the bowl. Although it was sold for 400 million, compared with it, it didn't actually make much money.

Next, gold thorn white porcelain fruit plate, Chinese blue handbag, pearl earrings and other items were auctioned. The enthusiasm of the auctioneers was higher than that of a flame.

And the girls sitting next to Chen Ya became more and more surprised—this company really has something.

According to their impression, most of the daily necessities used by the Queen of Britain should be produced in the UK or produced by European and American companies.

The products of domestic companies can win her favor, which should be due to "exotic style" (for the Queen), or because of their high quality and low price.

As a result, each of the following lots was more luxurious than the other, and even defeated the opponent in the traditional field of the opponent.

For example, "Golden Thorn Fruit Bowl", which is a gold-encrusted fruit bowl, the gold edge is made into the shape of thorny thorns, and it will be pricked if you are not careful.

According to the host, the reason for making this shape is because in the British court, which pays attention to etiquette, this style of fruit plate can make the younger royals more disciplined.

Another example is jewelry such as earrings and necklaces. Domestic products will always leave people with the impression of "fake products". However, Jiang Lizhi's finished products are more exquisite than what auctioneers have seen in other places, no matter whether they are made of materials or artificial. .

"The next lot is different from the previous ones."

The atmosphere on the field changed immediately when the crystal box was lit up, and the tone of the host's voice became faintly agitated.

"Everyone, please take a look. This lot is called St. George Slaying the Dragon Jade Bi."

"We know that there are three saints in Britain. The saint who belongs to England is St. George, who is a military god. His status in foreign countries is equivalent to our Guan Gong."

"His image is generally used in medals and oil paintings. This jade bi is carved with its image, which uses the raw materials of Huaguo and the image of Britain. It can be said to be a very bold attempt."

"The significance of this jade is far greater than its value. After it was given to the royal family as a gift for the National Day of the United Kingdom, the Queen of Britain loved it so much that she placed it in the middle of the welcome hall."

"Later, as an honor, it was presented to the British Royal Guard, and it was displayed in the guard's exhibition room for a period of time, attracting a large number of tourists from all over the world to take pictures and discuss it."

"Later, this jade was stolen, which caused a shock in the UK, and formed a continuous discussion that lasted for several months."

"This incident promoted Huaguo's jade culture in a disguised form, and brought jade into the eyes of the West. After this incident, the price of Huaguo's jade products in the international market more than tripled."

"After some twists and turns, this jade bi was returned to our consignor Jiang Lizhi, so this time it was put on the auction stage together with the queen's supplies."

"St. George's dragon slaying jade, the starting price is 3120 million!"

There was an uproar in the field, this is the item with the highest starting price in this auction so far.

Ordinary private individuals are also able to buy the previous items, so starting from this one, ordinary players can no longer buy them.

But the value of this piece of jade is indeed worth it. Not only is it of high quality and incomparably exquisite, but the accompanying story is also legendary.

Most importantly, it is like a real father to some domestic jade merchants.

The price of jade has never been high in foreign countries, but after the theft of the "St. George's Dragon Slaying Jade", not only the Royal Guards were complained from top to bottom by the British, but this jade was also popular. , Even the jade culture became popular.

Some overseas jade merchants, taking advantage of this shareholder wind, took off immediately, and some of them made a lot of money directly. They are really grateful to this jade bi and the thieves who stole it.

In the auction venue, many people raised their cards one after another, even Guo Menglin was a little eager to try.

After all, moving this jade back home is tantamount to bringing the face of the British Royal Guards home, which sounds very honorable.

Leaning on Chen Ya, Xia You asked in a low voice, "Didn't you just say that only the handbag was given away? Isn't this thing also given away?"

After Chen Ya listened, he laughed.

Xia You thought of something, and asked again: "Wait, it was stolen, how did it appear in your hands?"

Chen Ya smiled without saying a word.

Xia You was stunned for a long time before whispering, "It's so sinister."

She was struck by the cunning of the grown-up world.

The St. George's Dragon Slaying Jade Bi was sold at a super high price in the end. The buyer was half heartbroken and half happy to take the jade bi into his pocket, but when the next lot came out, he was dumbfounded again.

"Next, we finally reveal the mysterious lot of this auction. There are three pieces in total: the queen's pink diamond flower brooch, the queen's 12-carat pink diamond ring, and the final ace lot: the queen's ruby ​​crown."

"First, let's start with the brooch. This brooch is the brooch with the largest carat weight in the Queen's collection except for the one worn by the Queen when she ascended the throne. It is also the brooch she wore when she attended the last event."

"As we all know, the Queen has a special love for brooches, and this brooch that accompanied her to the end may also have a special meaning to her."

"The starting price is 1.15 million yuan."

The scene shook again.

If it is said that the jade bi in front is the entry point for high-end players, then starting with this brooch, it is really easy to stop.

After seeing the three collections, especially the twinkling light on the two pieces of pink diamond jewelry, Lu Qianzi grabbed Chen Ya's arm and screamed softly:
"I've never seen such a big diamond!"

"And it's still a pink diamond." Lu Qingxuan also said.

She squinted at the stage.No matter how cold and cold a woman is, she will inevitably find it hard to hold herself back when faced with this level of jewelry.

To own such jewelry, financial resources alone are not enough.

Lu Qianzi's body was a little weak.

The previous items were too far away from her life, and she hadn't felt it yet, but when this brooch came out, she felt like falling into a dream.

She really felt how outrageously high-end this auction was.

Liu Ruying looked at the brooch and murmured, "What kind of person would buy such jewelry?"

"There are always people with a lot of money. If I have money, I want it too." Lu Qingxuan held her arm tightly with her fingers and bit her lip. "I dare not look at it again. I really want it."

Lu Qianzi said in a daze, "I just felt the fun of rich people today. Don't talk about it, I must work hard to make money!"

Liu Ruying reminded her: "If you have this kind of thing at birth, if you don't have it at birth, you won't have it in your life."

"I know! But, work hard, buy some inferior ones, it's... that's okay too! Huh..." Lu Qianzi suddenly felt sad as she spoke.

"How can I buy this kind of jewelry by myself? It must be a gift from a man." Miao Aoxue who was sitting behind said, "Didn't you see? This auction sells all women's things, but they are all men's. Holding a sign."

Everyone looked back, and it was indeed as she said.

Most of the placards are men, and there are few women on the field.

Guo Menglin shook his fingers, stretched his shoulders, and said with a smile, "Xiao Miao, your Uncle Guo is about to make a move."

Miao Aoxue's eyes sparkled and said: "If a girl is given a brooch like this, then she will definitely do anything for that man."

"But this is not what I want to buy. Just raise a sign and consume their ammunition. I'm eyeing the last one."

He was referring to the last ruby ​​tiara.

Although I don't know the origin, it must be extraordinary.

If Guo Menglin doesn't make a move, it's enough, if he makes a move, he will win the best.

In the end, the brooch was sold at a price close to 3 million, and then the ring was sold at a price of more than 4 million.

At this point, there are only a few players on the field, and they can be counted on one finger.

When the host began to introduce the ruby ​​tiara, everyone's eyes became hot.

This shining crown, dotted with huge rubies, fell to the world like stars from the sky.

"As we all know, Queen Victoria, known as the 'grandmother of Europe', has two top-notch crowns, both of which were designed by her husband, Prince Albert. One is a sapphire crown and the other is an emerald crown."

"And this ruby ​​crown belongs to the Queen of Britain's own top crown, and it is her most precious collection."

"The starting price for this treasure is 3.5 million, and it starts now."

The host didn't give much introduction, he just said briefly.

Because facing the radiance dancing in the crystal box, you don't need to say much, just by looking at it, you can understand why this crown is so precious.

Guo Menglin immediately raised his hand high.

The last lot has a higher price, and the competition is more intense than the first two.

Guo Menglin's face was red, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was panting heavily.

Every time he raises a card, it is 7-figure and 8-figure, which is a huge sum of money that ordinary people may not be able to save in a lifetime.

Therefore, this bidding is also a fierce battle for him.

"One time for 6 million! Two times for 6 million!..."

"We saw this gentleman raised his placard again, 6.1 million? 6.5 million! 6.5 million once!"

"My God, this is crazy, 6.6 million! This is a very auspicious number, who else is holding a sign? 6.6 million once! Twice! Three times! Deal!"

The host was blushing and dropped the small wooden hammer, finally the dust settled, and Guo Menglin slumped down on the seat.

The crown is in hand, but the money is really painful to spend.

But there is no doubt that he made history, and when he goes out from here, there will be media coverage.

Miao Aoxue was also excited. At this moment, her reverence for Guo Menglin was unparalleled.

"Uncle Guo, you are amazing! 6.6 million!"

Miao Aoxue's eyes flashed with excitement, and she even glanced sideways at Chen Ya in front of her.

She focused on Chen Ya the whole time, and this guy really came here to watch the excitement, and he never asked for a price.

Guo Menglin stood up and said, "Come on, let's go and see, it belongs to my crown."

Miao Aoxue also stood up, even a little impatient.

Being able to touch something like this may be the only one in this life.

Xia You bumped Chen Ya with his elbow, and said in a low voice, "You said earlier that these are not really top quality? What is the real top quality?"

Chen Ya thought for a while and said, "I can't describe it in words... Do you want to see it with your own eyes?"

"En." Xia You nodded.

She doesn't have much material desire, but she is simply curious.

She felt that the crown alone was exaggerated enough.

"Okay, let's go backstage together." Chen Ya stood up, and then said to the other girls, "Are you together?"

Lu Qingxuan looked at him wonderingly: "How do I go to the backstage? The backstage is only for buyers who have taken pictures of the lot."

"It's okay, I also have some personal belongings behind." Chen Ya shrugged casually.

Miao Aoxue was hanging on Guo Menglin's arm, feeling uneasy the whole time, even her legs were a little weak.

When she walked backstage, she saw the auction items neatly arranged in the crystal box at a glance, and her heart ached.

But then, she saw the disharmonious scene at a glance, and said in a broken voice, "Chen Ya, what are you doing here?"
