A treasure-appraisal maniac

The fifteenth round is a bronze belt hook from the Warring States Period.

The starting price for this belt hook is 60,000 yuan, and each bid must not be less than 5,000 yuan.

This thing is not ordinary.

Bronze belt hook, engraved with Taotie pattern, this is an unearthed artifact.

In other words, these are objects ripped from a dead person.

Belt hooks engraved with the Taotie pattern are generally accessories for military commanders, whose rank is at least general or above.

This is an unearthed cultural relic.

Appearing in Jilong, it is likely that they are cultural relics smuggled in by tomb robbers.

Obviously, the auction company also understood this. When introducing it, it was quite simple. It only said that it was a bronze belt hook, and did not indicate the specific age, nor did it mention the word "underworld weapon".

However, anyone with common sense knows that as long as the bronze belt hook is genuine, its age will not be too low.

Because after the two Jin Dynasties, bronze belt hooks almost disappeared from the stage of history.

They were replaced by jade, gold and silverware.

People with average strength will use silk ribbons directly, and there is no need for hooks at all.

There have been dozens of rounds of items put up for auction, no matter what they are. After the announcement of the start of the bidding, the competition immediately became fierce.

But there's something strange about this round.

When the bidding started, only a few people started raising their placards.

In fact, the reason is simple. Regardless of the organizer, everyone knows that this thing is a ghost weapon.

The underworld weapon sounds a bit unlucky, and most businessmen would not want to get involved.

Another point is that bronze ware is average in overseas markets.

Not only can the price not be high, but the channels are also very limited, so there is no competition.

The four or five people who participated in raising the placards were just testing a few hands.

When the price reached 80,000 yuan, everyone else gave up.

Lu Fei didn't even pay attention to this process. He kept staring at the three old guys in the front row with his piercing tiger eyes.

Sure enough, when the auctioneer shouted for the second time, the three old men couldn't sit still.

I spent 1.8 million before, but not only did I not make any money, but I had to lose hundreds of thousands.

.

The three old men were unwilling to give in. After discussing for a while, they decided to use this belt hook to make up for all the losses on this trip.

Han Jiang raised the number plate and called the price. At the same time, the three old men turned around at the same time, subconsciously looking at their nightmare tonight, the white and tender little hand.

Thankfully, the little hand didn't go up this time.

When Han Jiang increased the price, the person who had bid before immediately gave up.

In this way, the Warring States Period bronze belt hook worth 300,000 yuan was successfully captured by three old men.

After taking this thing, in addition to making up for the losses, they can also make tens of thousands of small profits. The old guys let out a sigh of relief.

But what they didn't notice was that a pair of eyes in the back row burst into monstrous rage and surrounded them.

"It's your own fault that makes you miserable!" Lu Fei whispered.

Feeling that something was wrong with Lu Fei, Chen Xiang asked in a low voice.

Lu Fei shook his head.

"I'm fine, continue."

Next on the stage is a small enamel bowl.

When this small bowl came on stage, Lu Fei subconsciously sat up straight.

This thing is Lu Fei's biggest motivation to attend the auction tonight.

"ladies and gentlemen."

"The next thing that comes out is a Guangxu imitation of Yongzheng's enamel apricot forest and spring swallow bowl."

"This small bowl is well-preserved, with a neat carcass and bright glaze. It is a rare masterpiece."

"The starting price for this small bowl is 50,000 yuan, and each time the sign is raised, it must not be less than 5,000 yuan."

"Now."

The auctioneer was about to announce the start of the bidding when Lu Fei in the last row raised his arms high.

"Well!"

"Does this gentleman have something to say?" asked the auctioneer.

Lu Fei answered in standard English: "Yes!"

"Can I go to the front and have a look?"

Boya Auction Company has regulations that no matter what the object is, it can be appreciated on stage.

The door manager told Lu Fei about this before.

In the previous dozen rounds, no one came on stage to appreciate it, and the auctioneer had forgotten this aspect.

Now that Lu Fei made a request, the auctioneer was slightly startled, and then immediately nodded in agreement.

Lu Fei strode onto the stage, but there were slight boos in the venue. .??.??

Auction companies do allow on-stage viewings, but few people do.

They believe that going on stage to watch shows that they have poor eyesight and is simply embarrassing.

So no one bothers to do it.

Unexpectedly, someone shamelessly came up to show off today. Isn’t this wasting everyone’s precious time?

Lu Fei didn't care what they thought.

This thing is really important to Lu Fei.

Having read the auction manual before, Lu Fei already knew what was going on.

But just to be on the safe side, it’s better to go up and take a closer look in person.

When he came to the stage, Lu Fei circled around the small bowl, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

The three old men in the audience looked at Lu Fei's figure and frowned slightly.

"Hey, Lao Zhang, why do I feel that this young man's figure looks familiar?"

"Hiss——"

"I feel like I've seen it somewhere before, but I just can't remember."

"Harmful!"

"Such figures are everywhere, there's nothing special about them."

"Don't think too much"

After turning around, Lu Fei greeted the auctioneer.

"Hello, can you let me see the balance?" Lu Fei asked.

"no problem!"

The auctioneer put on his gloves, gently picked up the small bowl, and showed the bottom to Lu Fei.

Lu Fei nodded and had a panoramic view of Xiaowan.

This small bowl is seven centimeters high and about twelve centimeters in diameter.

The small bowl has a curved mouth, a curved belly, and a circle foot. Inside the foot is a four-character regular script inscription of "Yongzheng Year System" written in blue and white.

The outer wall is decorated with enamel paintings of double swallows, apricot flowers and other patterns. The colors are bright and the painting techniques are exquisite.

The inner wall and bottom are glazed with white glaze without decoration.

The outer wall is painted with a picture of spring swallows in an apricot forest, an apricot tree in full bloom, and two fluttering spring swallows flying among the branches.

There are two poems attached at the end: "The jade scissors pass through the flowers, and the colorful clothes return with the moon." This allusion comes from "The Song of Colorful Clothes and Feather Clothes" written by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.

With this poem, elegance arises spontaneously.

The shape of the whole device is regular, the carcass is light and thin, the texture is white, the franc color is bright, and it is quite beautiful.

"That's it."

Lu Fei nodded after reading it and strode towards the back.

As I walked, I was already very excited.

I really didn’t expect to see such a treasure in such a small place?

This is life!

"Ruyi, you get to play this round."

"ah?"

"Really?" Ruyi asked in surprise.

"of course it's true."

"yeah!"

"Brother Fei, didn't you just say that Ruyi was inappropriate?" Song Xiaojiao asked.

"This time it's different. There's no need to act."

"If you wish, come boldly. No matter how high the cost, you must win this bowl."

"okay!"

Liang Ruyi bit her lip excitedly, already holding the number plate firmly in her hand.

"ladies and gentlemen."

"Guangxu imitation of the Yongzheng Xinglin Chunyan Bowl, with a base price of 50,000 yuan, and the bidding is now open."

The auctioneer announced the start, and more than twenty number plates were raised at the same time.

Guangxu imitated Yongzheng, which sounds a little less powerful.

But this small bowl is so beautiful and not expensive, so people are vying for it.
