The middle-aged man was dumbfounded.
He wanted to ask Gu Yiran if she was dreaming.
A small auction like theirs was better. The date was uncertain, and the auction could start after collecting thousands of antiques.
A large auction company like Capital Poly held auctions in spring and autumn every year.
Each time, there were close to ten thousand pieces.
Of course, not all of them were treasures.
In order to raise funds for the next auction, the Treasure Auction House had already collected hundreds of antiques, but they were still lacking many treasures and finale items.
Antiques were easy to find, but treasures were hard to come by. The final item could only depend on luck.
Seeing the middle-aged man's expression, Gu Yiran chuckled. He naturally knew what the other party was thinking.
"I'll come over next week to give you a few paintings.”Gu Yiran said lightly," If you think it's okay, I'll get you a few more.”
The middle-aged man saw that Gu Yiran did not seem to be joking and swallowed his saliva.
Was he hugging a human-shaped treasure trove?
Good things are all sold wholesale by catty.
"Alright, thank you, Mr. Gu.”The middle-aged man waved his hand and said," Now, let's talk about this painting.”
Gu Yiran nodded and the two of them walked over.
The old appraiser had already come to a conclusion. This was a real painting. No matter how one looked at it, it was enough to be the finale.
"Mr. Gu is willing to give us what he loves.”The middle-aged man paused and said," We naturally can't be biased. This painting will be placed at the finale.”
He was the boss, so no one objected to what he said.
Gu Yiran nodded in satisfaction. He felt that he could work with the Treasure Auction House for a long time in the future.
After all, he needed a large amount of money to exchange for counterfeit points.
An auction was a place where the value of a collection could be maximized.
Large auction companies like Capital Poly usually had their own channels to collect items and did not collect them from outsiders. Moreover, the handling fees they charged were extremely high.
A small auction company like the Treasure Auction House definitely needed Gu Yiran if they wanted to develop.
Then, there were many conditions that they could discuss.
After Xu Beihong's " Galloping Horse Painting " was put away, the middle-aged man smiled and said,""Mr. Gu, the auction is about to begin. I've already arranged a VIP room for you.”
"Alright, let's go." Gu Yiran also wanted to see if there were any other good things inside.
......
The treasure auction was divided into two types: the inner and outer areas. The outer area was filled with ordinary antiques. Most of them were worthless gadgets that could be bought with a few thousand dollars.
The inner area was filled with treasures, each of which cost more than 100,000 yuan. If they encountered rare items, it was very common for them to cost more than 10 million yuan.
Gu Yiran stopped outside for a while, wanting to see if there was anything good.
Unfortunately, the appraisers of the auction house were all very sharp. After looking around, they really did not find anything good, so they went to the inner hall.
When Gu Yiran arrived at the inner hall, the auction had already been going on for half an hour.
He was led by two young and beautiful ladies to the VIP room arranged by the auction house.
The private room was very simple. There was a sofa facing the auction stage, a fruit platter on the coffee table, and a wooden shelf beside it. There was red wine on it, and the most eye-catching thing was that there was a bed in the corner.
Gu Yiran was speechless.
Were people nowadays so open-minded? They liked to clap for love in all kinds of strange places.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the next item to be auctioned is a white jade spring water pattern belt.”
The auctioneer gently lifted the black cloth.
A sparkling and translucent white jade appeared in front of everyone.
"The starting price is 50,000 yuan, and each increment must not be lower than 5000 yuan.”
"I like this thing, 60,000!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone raised the sign in his hand.
Before long, someone else made a bid.
Many people liked this item. The competition was fierce, and the price was rising.
Soon, it broke the 100,000 mark.
The final transaction price reached 135,000 yuan. The owner was the boss who said he liked this thing.
After that, a few more items were auctioned. The prices were all between 100,000 to 300,000. There were no sky-high auction items.
Gu Yiran looked at it for a while but did not find anything she liked. During this period, she did not make a move.
As time passed in the auction, the items that came out later became more and more precious, and the price rose steadily.
Even Gu Yiran, who was a bystander, could feel the smell of gunpowder growing stronger.
Finally, there was something that even a bystander like him was moved by.
"We all know that porcelain is a type of collection that everyone likes. Over the years, the auction price of porcelain has also been relatively high.”
The auctioneer paused for a moment before continuing.
"Yuan Blue and White Porcelain is the representative of the sky-high price of the auction item!”
"There's a Yuan Blue Flower here?"
"No way, why isn't Yuan Qinghua the finale?”
"Don't keep me in suspense!"
The auctioneer's words caused the crowd to boil.
Gu Yiran's eyes lit up.
"Of course, something as precious as the blue and white porcelain would not be easily sold. We are auctioning the fragments of the blue and white porcelain.”
The auctioneer lifted the black cloth on the table.
More than a dozen exquisite fragments were placed on the tray, barely able to piece together a complete bottle, but there were still parts missing.
When they saw the real thing, the crowd booed!
The complete Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain was worlds apart from the fragments!
The auctioneer quickly eased the atmosphere and said,""These fragments are all from one body. Everyone can take them back and ask someone to repair them!”
"The starting price is 200,000, and each increment must not be lower than 10,000.”
"Start now!"
The auctioneer's final words moved many people.
This included Gu Yiran.
He wanted to obtain the blue-and-white porcelain craftsmanship of the Yuan Dynasty.
When the time came, as long as it was manufactured according to the original craftsmanship, and then used the counterfeit points to make it old, a perfect counterfeit would be born!
The price of blue and white porcelain was not cheap.
Every single one of them was a rare treasure.
In particular, there was one of the Three Unique Porcelain Vases of the Yuan Dynasty, Xiao Heyue's Chasing Han Xin.
