The Book of Appreciation

After listening to Song Shiming's explanation, Wu Di suddenly realized, but he woke up again in a blink of an eye, curled his lips and said:

"Just fool around, and continue fooling around hard. These items are all genuine products, and if they are actually auctioned, they will definitely not be lower than this price. How can there be any talk of a deal?"

"Hehe, this is what Liu San does. Believe it or not, that snuff bottle will soon return to him at a very low price, or it won't change hands at all!"

Wu Di pondered for a moment and said:

"That is to say, the fat man threw out 500 million yuan, and the snuff bottle still belongs to the original seller."

"No, that snuff bottle originally belonged to Liu San, but it was sent for auction in someone else's name!"

"Ca! Then this bowl of yours is someone who wanted to send it to Ma Lao through the auction..."

"That's right, such transaction records will be kept clearly, and there are so many witnesses at the scene, and the things are indeed worth so much money, hehe, smart?"

"No, why did I see someone bring experts in? And what do I mean by taking those pictures?"

"Those people are here to cover up, some understand, some don't understand. What this auction is really going on is our two transactions! But now that fat man may be a little troublesome."

"why?"

"Because I brought your mallet here, and you snatched a few lots at a low price! The loss is to be counted on these two transactions. I guess no one would dare to come to me, so only that fat man Carrying it. How is it? Brother, is it interesting enough? Let you come here in the name of Master..."

"You don't come here, if all the things in the audience are sold at low prices, then the fat man will have to turn his face on the spot..."

"Brother, why are you so naive, the ones that didn't meet the price were entrusted to get back! Your two pieces are because people saw you with me, and no one dared to stop them!"

Card!I'm stuck!These people really racked their brains to avoid some things!Wu Di thought about it for a while, and found another doubtful point, why is Song Shiming so kind, and let him take advantage of the master's name?Could it be that there is something hidden in this?

Sure enough, the two of them hadn't walked a few steps along the path in the clubhouse, Song Shiming pretended not to care and asked:

"Is your master in good health?"

"It's okay, it looks pretty tough."

"Our old man won this treasure, and he will definitely show it off to him. Hehe, you'd better say hello in advance when you go back, otherwise with my master's temper, he will get carried away by the time, and it will be troublesome to choke with Chang Lao!"

Wu Di didn't speak, but his mind was spinning, oh, I finally figured it out, this old man must have asked his master for something, and he found him through Song Shiming!I'm stuck!This is too complicated, right? !

The two walked a few steps silently, Song Shiming said:

"Let's go, that scene is probably over, and the next one is for us people. It's hard to say the source of the thing, and it's hard to say whether it's true or not, and there are still many problems. However, I think these things are very important for Brother Wu. For you, it shouldn't be a problem."

"What do you mean?"

Wu Di asked listlessly.He was exhausted physically and mentally by this complicated matter. Fortunately, he didn't listen to the old lady's arrangement to go into politics or join the army. Otherwise, with his lazy heart, he might be played to death and plant trees on his grave for others!

"You'll know when you get there."

The next auction was held in another place, which was much larger than the one just now. When Wu Di followed Song Shiming to the venue, he was shocked by the layout inside.

This is a large hall. In the center of the hall, there are more than a dozen rows of chairs neatly arranged, and it is estimated that there are more than 200 chairs.On the two walls of the hall, there are two rows of long tables full of things. There are few people at one row of long tables, while the other row of long tables is crowded with people.The other empty wall was covered with calligraphy and paintings, as many as forty or fifty.

Song Shiming pointed to the long table and said:

"There should be a hundred or ten items here. However, including the hyphenated paintings, there is only half an hour to look at the exhibits, and you are not allowed to get started. The rules of the auction will be even more strange later. One piece is 1 minute, and you It's useless to pay a high price. Got it? There are still 25 minutes, let's split up and start to act, hoping to hit something good this time."

Strange things happen every year, but today there are so many!And there is such an auction?Is this in a hurry to go back to have a baby or the old man in the family is gone? It takes half an hour to read 1 or [-] pieces, and the bidding time is only [-] minute for one piece. It’s just a joke, right?Doesn't Liu San actually want to sell these things?

It is possible that he did this for the first reason that it is more mysterious, and the second is to limit purchases.Want to buy more?Let’s see how many pieces you can see for yourself first, there is no authenticity here... If you want to buy good things, you can only have a clear goal, focus on looking at a few pieces, and then figure out a good price. hit.This is somewhat similar to Myanmar's emerald mark, and the competition is only in the last few seconds.

But in this way, everyone's goals will be a bit scattered, and it will avoid the situation where everyone is fighting to a certain extent...

Confused by Song Shiming, this is an auction, so how can you be afraid of the situation of competition?I'm afraid the boss won't be able to ask for it!So why are there so many rules?

As he walked along the long table, he looked at the collection on the table and pondered in his mind.

The long table on the left is full of small antiques and miscellaneous items, such as snuff bottles, bronze mirrors, bamboo and wood ivory carvings, ancient jade, and coins. There are always sixty or seventy pieces.But there were not many people who saw it. Most of them gathered at the porcelain and calligraphy and painting side.

After a rough scan, Wu Di recognized that at least one-third of the collections had problems. If there was enough time, everyone would probably find that at least half of the collections were not genuine.But it’s hard to say now, I don’t have time to read it, and when the time comes, I’ll find a few to fool around and scramble for it, maybe the fakes can be sold for a sky-high price!

wrong!It suddenly occurred to him that buying antiques is not like buying eggs. As long as the price is a few cents cheaper and there is an upper limit for panic buying, old ladies will flock to them, forming a panic buying craze.The unit price of this thing is high, and it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity from the fake. You expect to take advantage of the confusion to sell fakes, and the difficulty is really not ordinary.

I don't understand, I really don't understand.However, for him, what does it matter if he doesn't understand?Time may not be enough for others, but for him, it is like a natural 36d big wave, no need to squeeze, the ravine is scary deep!With the heavenly book in hand, you can know the authenticity of all the collections in an instant, and you can also wait for a single item to be auctioned before identifying it. Doesn’t it all depend on the mood of Young Master Wu?

He browsed through the calligraphy and paintings along the wall, and found a few fine works, among which Zheng Banqiao's "Bamboo Picture" was particularly conspicuous.He stayed in front of the painting for 1 minute, then walked forward blankly.

Here is another picture of Zhu Da?When did the paintings of these famous artists appear so cheap that they just appeared in this crude auction venue that looked like a circus shed?But after just a glance, he took a deep breath, don't tell me, even if it's an imitation, it's still a masterpiece!

After reading the calligraphy and paintings and looking at the porcelain, there are 5 minutes left to turn around. He was thinking about whether to use the book to play a hooligan, and suddenly felt as if someone was looking at him. When he turned around, he saw people in several directions. lowered his gaze.Wu Di understood that it was recognized by someone.That's right, almost everyone who specializes in antiques doesn't know him. After all, those magazines are frequent visitors to these people's desks, and the large photos are enough to publicize his unhandsome face.With a thought in his heart, he called Zhang Fei and asked him to sneak into the crowd and wait for further instructions.

Half an hour passed quickly, everyone quieted down, and the waiter began to issue signs to everyone.Wu Di noticed that at least five groups of people were paying attention to him all the time, intentionally or unintentionally, and couldn't help shaking his head. It seemed that something interesting might happen later.But I hope he treats the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, otherwise, some people will cry.

The first auction was for those miscellaneous small items. These people sat down neatly, and a wooden high platform was lifted in front of everyone. It was the same auctioneer just now. He changed his clothes and jumped onto the platform in three or two steps. .

"Time is limited, so I won't talk nonsense, and the auction will start directly. Everyone understands the rules? Bids are valid within 1 minute, and after 1 minute, no matter how high the price is, I'm sorry, this item is not yours. Now, The first piece, a snuff bottle with pictures of fish and algae painted inside the unmarked glass, the starting price is 1000 yuan, and the timer starts.”

The venue was quiet, Wu Di held up a sign and said:

"I will pay 1000 yuan."

He had seen this one before, but it was not inscribed, but it was clearly shown in the scriptures. Qing Ye Zhongsan's snuff bottle with pictures of fish and algae inside the glass was genuine.

Half a minute after Wu Di bid, there was a voice hesitating:

"One thousand and five."

Wu Di stared at the clock on the back of the auctioneer, and saw that when there were ten seconds left, he bid again, [-] yuan.

The second hand jumped to the end, and the hammer in the auctioneer's hand slammed on the table. The unmarked glass snuff bottle with pictures of fish and algae was sold for [-] yuan!

Everyone was waiting for the second lot to come on stage as if nothing happened, but Wu Di hadn't reacted until more than half of the time for the second lot had passed.This is the work of Ye Zhongsan, one of the three masters of inner painting pots worth at least 500 million, just like this?That fat man just threw out 500 million in front of his eyes!

In fact, what surprised him was not the price of [-] yuan. He had picked up many leaks bigger than this, but the key point was that this was auctioned off at the price of picking up garbage in front of nearly a hundred people.

Wu Di immediately felt that he fell in love with this place, if it was at this price level, hehe, he dared not think about it anymore, he was afraid that a thunderbolt would suddenly strike him to death! (To be continued.)
