Chapter 99

The team from the Yanjing Cultural Relics Bureau arrived at breakfast. As a native of China, Chu Qingyu naturally followed Daliu and several other wealthy businessmen to visit the team, and basically reached an agreement that they would sell when funds were insufficient.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the auction began.

Ganard Auction House has been in business for more than 200 years, with a long history and rich experience.The guests were either rich or expensive, and even if they were members of the cultural relics bureau team who had already come forward to negotiate for the finale of the auction, the organizers did not mean to neglect them at all.

"Dear guests, welcome to Rose Castle. I hope this auction will bring you joy and return with satisfaction."

The number of guests was not small, but not too many, there were only a few dozen people in total, and they were sparsely seated in the large theater built into the castle that served as the auction hall.The auctioneer started the display and introduction of the first lot after a few polite words, "This is a painting created in the same period as the "Mona Lisa". It was created by the famous Italian Renaissance painter Leonardo da Vinci. "Salvator Mundi" by Qi Qi.

I have to say that Gardner is worthy of being ranked among the top three auction houses in the world. The first lot that came up was worth a lot, with a starting price of 1 million US dollars. The guests at the scene responded enthusiastically. And after giving authoritative certification to confirm that the painting is genuine, they raised their placards to bid for the auction.

Chu Qingyu looked left and right at the enlarged picture of this painting, and had to admit that he might lack artistic talent, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see anything strange about this figure painting that looked like a man and a woman with one hand dragging a ball and the other holding up two fingers.

However, judging from the rising bidding price, Chu Qingyu still understood that this painting should be amazing.

In the end, this painting was photographed by a wealthy businessman in country F for 4 million US dollars, and the whole process took only 20 minutes. Lin Qingyuan took a breath beside him, and he, who has always been prudent and self-sufficient, couldn't help leaning forward slightly, leaning closer to Chu Qingyu's ear and whispering. Shengdao: "If you add the commission, it will be more than 4.5 million US dollars, which is about 30 billion dollars."

Among works of art, this bidding price is definitely considered very high, and it may even become the most expensive work of art in history.

What's even more frightening is that this is only the first auction at the beginning of this auction. According to the usual practice, the subsequent auctions will only become more rare, so how high will the price be when it is the turn of that cultural relic later on.

Apparently, they were not the only ones who had this kind of thought. The wealthy businessmen and team members of the Cultural Relics Bureau also had a slight commotion, and then they all looked more solemn.

Fortunately, Gardner did not follow the usual path. The price of this lot was disrupted. The second lot was Elizabeth Taylor's 40th birthday gift, a string of sapphire and diamond necklaces, which sold for more than $500 million.

The third lot, Francis Bacon's Study for a Portrait of Lucian Freud, painted by Francis Bacon for his friend and rival Lucian Freud, fetched $1.2 million.

In the first hour, no one from Huaguo raised their placards.

Such behavior will inevitably attract malicious complaints from some boring people.

"This group of Asians looks like a group of poor ghosts. They haven't raised their cards for such a long time. Are they eating and drinking?"

"In the past two years, the threshold of the Gardner Auction has become lower and lower. Anyone can enter."

"Don't say that, who doesn't know that this group of people with incomplete evolution is short-sighted and weird, have you heard about it? At the party last night, Belin De met a BT woman from country R in the bathroom. "

Because it wasn't too far away, Chu Qingyu, who was eaten by this melon, said: "." He never expected that Belin De was cold and cool, but he had a big mouth behind his back.

The other people in Hua Country who were blushing and not very good-looking at first said: "." BT girl from country R?
Not far away, a few people from country R who have a lower sense of presence than Chu Qingyu and the others: "???"

Because they didn't shy away from other people when they communicated just now, and everyone around them knew that they were from country R.In addition, there were few of them, except for the middle-aged man, there was only a young man and a woman.In this way, when discussing the legendary BT girl from country R, ​​the few people naturally turned their attention to the only young girl.

Feeling the vague scrutiny from her surroundings, the young girl with the princess-cut thick bangs, no matter how self-restraining she is, couldn't help but blush from anger on her face at this moment.

Chu Qingyu has sharp eyes and ears, and is naturally good at intercepting the sounds she wants to hear from all kinds of sounds.

So she could hear that the girl who seemed to have no reaction almost gritted her silver teeth, and said to the middle-aged man next to her in a deep voice: "After the end, you must find out the bastard who slandered me, and chop it up for me." Feed the fish!"

The middle-aged man who originally thought he was the leader nodded slightly when he heard the words, and responded respectfully.

Chu Qingyu took a sip of his teeth and decided to run away as soon as the auction was over, so he turned his head and told Lin Qingyuan: "You remember to communicate the route in advance, and we will leave as soon as we are done here."
