Collection of Gods

Chapter 883 Dragon Robe and Hundred Deer Zun
The price increase of nearly 10 million yuan made the scene suddenly quiet.

When everyone came to their senses, they realized that it was Tang Yuan who took action.

"Director Tang, what are you doing?"

Penguin Horse was a little stunned at first, and then asked with a somewhat amused look.

Hearing this, Tang Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. Ma's collection is undoubtedly great stuff. Mr. Ma also knows that the private museum I am planning to build will be completed next year. It just so happens that I don't have any rare paintings by Xu Beihong in my collection yet. I can't miss such a great opportunity."

"Director Tang, I'm a little suspicious now. Did you plan this in advance?"

"You used the name of a charity auction to trick all the treasures out of the hands of us old guys, and then you took them all yourself. By the way, you can also inject some money into our charity foundation with justification. You are killing two birds with one stone!"

The penguin horse was a little slow to react, and suddenly seemed to realize something.

"Cough cough..."

"Boss Ma, this is clearly a win-win situation!"

Tang Yuan coughed twice, then tried to make himself look sincere.

"Mr. Tang, don't bully us because we are old and don't understand the Internet memes." Xiaomi Lei interrupted at the right time: "The win-win situation in the past was a win-win situation for both parties, but the win-win situation now means that you win twice in a row!"

Tang Yuan pretended to shake his head, held his forehead and sighed, "What a mistake, what a mistake, I actually forgot that Lei Dong, the recognized king of Internet memes, was also at the table. I was originally thinking of getting away with it!"

"Mr. Tang, there is nothing to say now."

Penguin Horse joked with a smile.

"Boss Ma, think about it carefully. Given our friendship, if this painting of "Three Horses in Autumn Forest" falls into my hands, you can enjoy it whenever you want. It's better than letting it fall into the hands of others!"

Tang Yuan started to deceive: "Think about your status. If it fell into the hands of others, how could you have the nerve to ask for it? But I am different from others. Do you need to be polite to me? So you should be happy that this painting "Three Horses in Autumn Forest" fell into my hands!"

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"Did you just PUA me?"

"We are both bosses. How can I let you fool me?"

Penguin Horse couldn't help laughing: "I don't care anyway. When your private museum opens, you have to give me free admission for life, and you can't hide anything from me!"

"no problem!"

"Come anytime, I'll receive you anytime!"

Tang Yuan patted his chest and promised immediately.

"Mr. Tang, you can't favor one over the other in our relationship. I would also like to apply for the same treatment that Mr. Ma enjoys." Hua Weiren said.

"Mr. Ren, what are the items you donated today?"

Hearing this, Tang Yuan asked tentatively.

"Wu Guanzhong's Bamboo Forest in Huangshan, do you know this painting?"

Hua Weiren asked back with a smile in his eyes.

"I know, I know. That's too good to be true!" Tang Yuan smiled brightly. "Mr. Ren, given our relationship, there's nothing to say. When you come to my private museum in the future, you must be treated the same as Mr. Ma!"

"Eh eh eh?"

"Mr. Tang, Mr. Tang, what about me?"

Xiaomi Lei followed closely behind and also asked Tang Yuan two questions.

"Mr. Lei, what are the items you donated today?"

Tang Yuan looked at Xiaomilei again with anticipation.

"This is also a treasure among treasures. It is a jade seal with a crouching dragon button from the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. The seal reads [Self-Strengthening and Unremitting Efforts]. This is one of the few treasures I have in my bottom drawer!"

Talking about this donated item, Xiaomi Lei couldn't help but hide a little bit of complacency.

However, after listening to what Xiao Mi Lei said, Tang Yuan immediately showed a look of disappointment, shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Lei, I already have the 24 seals of the Ming Dynasty. Now I have no interest in jade seals at all. It seems that you will have to buy a ticket to visit my private museum in the future."

When Xiaomi Lei heard this, his slightly complacent expression instantly froze on his face, and everyone sitting at Tang Yuan's table couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Director Tang, you said that this was not premeditated, but your discrimination is too obvious!"

Jingdong Qiang laughed and teased.

"Mr. Tang, are you OK?"

Xiaomi Lei directly gave Tang Yuan a classic greeting, and Xiaomi Lei's original version made Tang Yuan and others laugh so hard that they couldn't stop.

"Boss Lei, this is just a joke!"

"After my private museum is built, no matter who comes, I will welcome you with open arms and wait for you!"

After everyone laughed, Tang Yuan quickly tried to calm Xiaomilei down. Xiaomilei was originally a very gentle and cheerful person. He also knew that Tang Yuan was just joking, so he naturally did not show any negative emotions.

While everyone was chatting and laughing, auctioneer Lin Yuehua reminded twice. Seeing that no one at the scene wanted to raise the price, she dropped the hammer after the last reminder, ending this round of auction. This also meant that Xu Beihong's precious painting "Three Horses in Autumn Forest" fell into Tang Yuan's hands.

Tang Yuan's final bid had the final say, but it actually had nothing to do with his identity. Although a charity auction is a form of charity, the main body is still an auction, and whether the deal can be completed still depends on the price.

The reason for this transaction is that the price Tang Yuan finally offered has significantly exceeded the intrinsic value of the painting. If he continues to bid at this price, even if he succeeds in buying it, it may take decades before the painting appreciates in value to exceed this price. Such a long-term investment will undoubtedly involve great risks.

The transaction volume of 300 million pushed the atmosphere on the scene to a new peak. The auction items that appeared immediately after the penguin horse were obviously of a higher level of collection than those that appeared before the penguin horse. The general transaction prices were between 700 million and million.

Soon, the charity auction was more than halfway through. After Xu Beihong's "Three Horses in Autumn Forest" donated by Penguin Horse, Byte Zhang's Qing Dynasty Qianlong foreign color Hundred Deer Zun was sold for 2900 million, Pinduohuang's Wu Guanzhong's "Wild Vine Pearl" was sold for 3046 million, NetEase Ding's "Qian Xiang Han Zhang" was sold for 2287 million, and Baidu Li's Qing Dynasty Qianlong imperial dragon robe inlaid with pearls and yellow satin with twelve chapters was sold for 3400 million.

As fellow board members, they would naturally not be too stingy. The items they brought out were all rare treasures rarely seen in the market. And the one that Baidu Li brought out was a yellow satin dragon robe inlaid with pearls and with twelve chapters pattern made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. This was something Tang Yuan had never expected.

The dragon robe has symbolized supreme power since ancient times. Because it is usually made of brocade embroidery, it is very difficult to preserve it intact over a hundred years.

Tang Yuan did not hesitate to take this extremely rare dragon robe and took it directly and decisively. He also took away Zhang's Qing Dynasty Qianlong foreign-colored Hundred Deer Zun.

At this point, the charity auction has just passed the halfway point, and its total transaction volume has exceeded 400 million...
