Xia Ye smiled and said nothing.
Jiang Dong slapped his thigh and quickly gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Ye, this trick of yours is too high!"
Xia Ye did this because he was worried that Li Haoxuan would compete with him for blue and white porcelain.
If he brought enough funds to compete with Yuan blue and white porcelain, he had no chance of winning.
But this time, he completely disrupted Li Haoxuan's bidding rhythm with the Chenghua Chicken Cup.
The conversation between Xia Ye and Jiang Dong fell into Li Haoxuan's ears.
He stood up suddenly, his eyes full of anger, and said in a deep voice: "Are you kidding me?"
Xia Ye showed a harmless smile, narrowed her eyes and said, "I don't think you said the price should not be too high in this auction, right? When others were bidding just now, I remember you also bid a few times, right?"
Li Haoxuan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Then let's wait and see!"
He thought that the other party would be blind at least a few times, but he didn't expect that this guy named Xia Ye knew so much about this auction that he could even identify fakes at a glance.
This only shows that the other party's treasure appraisal skills are at least better than his, which makes him even more annoyed.
He thought that this charity auction would be his home field, but he didn't expect that he would be pecked by an eagle even though he was playing hawk.
When Yang Shihua heard Jiang Dong's words, he couldn't help but laugh at Li Haoxuan and said: "Li Haoxuan, don't you claim to be an expert in the antique industry? Isn't there anything you can't recognize? How come a Chenghua chicken cup reveals your true colors?" "
Li Haoxuan's face turned red and his whole body was shaking with anger, but it was hard to get angry!
The other party has many people and strength, but he is single and weak.
If you want to regain your reputation, you must take a photo that is worth the money in order to gain some face for yourself.
Spending 1.5 million to buy a broken chicken vat cup is really a shame for him in this lifetime!
The reason why he made a mistake was because Xia Ye disrupted the bidding rhythm!
Li Haoxuan took a deep breath and said secretly in his heart: "You must not let the other party confuse your mind. You must have your own judgment."
It was just because of the influence he had in Fengmingxuan last time that he lost his judgment.
The items in this charity auction are inherently mixed with authenticity, otherwise why would it be called a charity auction?
Of course, some of the lots are fake and some are genuine, such as the following lot.
"The auction item below is a Xuande furnace from the Ming Dynasty, with a starting price of 500,000!"
Since we are in the VIP hall, we can view the auction items up close.
After adjusting his mentality, Li Haoxuan recognized at a glance that this thing was a fake.
If he really paid 500,000 yuan, then he would be the real victim!
He glanced at Xia Ye and saw that the other party had no intention of taking action.
However.
A middle-aged man who was also in the VIP hall raised the sign in his hand and shouted expressionlessly: "Five hundred and fifty thousand."
Li Haoxuan rolled his eyes.
If you spend 550,000 yuan on this fake product, do you really think you are doing charity?
Someone behind him started to ask for a price, and the asking price became more and more fierce, almost reaching 900,000 yuan.
"Crazy! What a bunch of crazy!"
These business celebrities in the venue cannot be compared with old fritters in the antique world like Xia Ye.
In her previous life, Xia Ye had gone to countless auctions, and she had already had a deep understanding of antique calligraphy and paintings.
He also bought countless national treasures at high prices at auctions held abroad, and then sent them back to the Imperial Museum.
The empire’s commendation certificates alone can barely fit on the bookshelves at home.
This group of business celebrities only have a partial understanding of antique calligraphy and painting.
They are only familiar with items from certain periods, and will not take action at all if they are unfamiliar with things.
The current Xuande Furnace had appeared on TV news more than once, so they naturally thought it was a genuine item, so there was a scramble for it.
Seeing that the competition for Xuande Furnace has entered a fierce stage.
Xia Ye suddenly whispered in Jiang Dong's ear: "Xiao Jiang, this lot is ready for sale."
Jiang Dong suddenly became energetic and quickly raised the sign in his hand and said: "One million!"
When Li Haoxuan heard that Jiang Dong wanted to spend one million to buy a fake, he muttered and cursed: "Idiot! Spend one million to buy a fake!"
Xia Ye smiled and said, "Mr. Li, that's better than spending 1.5 million to buy a fake, right? Longteng Securities also needs to thank you for donating 1.5 million to them."
Li Haoxuan's eyes instantly turned cold, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists.
Damn bastard, he has already lost nearly three million in vain!
For Li Haoxuan, this celebrity chamber of commerce was like a catastrophe.
"This auction is not over yet, don't get too proud!"
Li Haoxuan dropped these salty words and stopped talking.
Jiang Dong bid one million, but no one offered a higher price, and he successfully bought the Xuande Furnace.
He smiled and said to Xia Ye: "Brother Ye, isn't the Xuande furnace valuable? This thing must be no less than two million, right?"
Xia Ye shook his head and said, "The Xuande stove is a fake."
"ah???"
Jiang Dong was about to cry.
Huang Ling took a picture of jadeite beads to represent love, and Yang Shihua took a picture of "A Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix" as a gift to his grandfather.
At least the photos taken by both of them were genuine.
And what about him?
Brother Ye actually asked him to take a picture of a fake!
What is going on?
"Brother Ye, are you kidding me?"
Huang Ling and Yang Shihua were laughing from ear to ear.
"Hahahaha, Brother Ye, are you trying to trick Dongzi on purpose? Dongzi's face is turning green now."
"Brother Ye, stop joking with Mr. Jiang. It shouldn't be your style to let others give you one million for free, right?"
Xia Ye smiled mysteriously and said, "Let's talk about it after the auction."
Jiang Dong rolled his eyes at Huang Ling Yang Shihua and said, "Have you two laughed enough? Anyway, I believe Brother Ye, he can't deliberately trick me!"
The auction items continued, during which Yang Shihua also won two relatively satisfactory items.
Xia Ye never made a move until the host announced the last lot of the auction.
"The last lot in today's auction is Yuan blue and white porcelain, with a starting price of one million!"
The moment she heard about Yuan blue and white porcelain, Xia Ye was suddenly shocked.
But in order not to let anyone see that he came specifically for this piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain, he didn't even bid at the beginning.
The business celebrities at the auction were obviously all out of ammunition and food.
This final lot finally appeared at the last minute, which made Xia Ye's wait really hard.
At this time, Li Haoxuan's cash had been squeezed out, and he could only offer a minimum price.
Even if he knew that the blue and white porcelain in front of him was genuine, he couldn't compete.
"What a pity! This Yuan blue and white porcelain can only be given to others."
There were not many people bidding at the venue, and the price was only 1.3 million.
Xia Ye was patient and didn't rush to take action.
A man in a suit in the VIP hall slowly raised the sign in his hand and said calmly: "One and a half million."
Xia Ye's eyes moved slightly, and she subconsciously looked at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's face was expressionless and his eyes were unwavering, as if he was also directed at the blue and white porcelain.
The reserve price in Xia Ye's hand was only six million, and his expected price was two million, so that he could earn at least seven or eight million.
But this middle-aged man with a calm face in the VIP hall completely disrupted Xia Ye's bidding rhythm.
Looking at his posture, it looks like he could shout more than two million!
Xia Ye adjusted her bidding strategy and suddenly said: "Two million!"
