However, this must also be based on the premise that this bronze cauldron is genuine.
Seeing the price on the projection cloth jumping rapidly, and soon it reached more than 40 million, Xiao Bai couldn't help but take a breath.
Unfortunately, he originally thought that he was a rich man with more than fifteen million in his hand.
Unexpectedly, when this kind of situation comes, I am not even qualified to make a bid.
Fifty million.
Sixty million.
The price of projection cloth changes rapidly.
In fact, according to the general unearthed artifacts, they are greatly discounted on this kind of black market.
But this rule does not apply to this kind of national treasure bronze.
After all, bronze wares are not allowed to be traded in the normal market, and those who have the ability to purchase such heavy wares must have their own channels to trade or buy them privately.
Now, Xiao Bai only hopes that this three-legged bronze tripod will eventually be taken away by some foreign forces. After all, this is a real fake.
"Oh, Xiao Xiao, I really want to thank you again. If it weren't for your words, I'm afraid I would be as crazy as these people."
Listening to the emotion of Xu Weiming next to him, Xiao Bai chuckled helplessly.
"I just hope that the person who took the fake product in the end won't be tempted to jump off the building."
"Sigh, the market for metalware is probably getting more and more chaotic now."
"Originally, what kind of secret marks would the master counterfeiters of those counterfeiting groups leave on their own works?"
"I didn't find any secret mark on this three-legged bronze tripod. I really didn't expect that one day his technology would improve again. Then would anyone in this antique business be able to identify the authenticity of these artifacts?"
"If even top experts can't identify it, those fake products may become "genuine". I really don't dare to think about it."
Hearing Xiao Bai's emotion, Sun Limin on the side couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, well, I really hope this counterfeiting group can be caught soon. Otherwise, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow to the antique market that has just matured and stabilized."
As the three of them chatted, there was no delay in the price of this three-legged bronze tripod getting higher and higher.
There was nothing we could do about it. During the Republic of China, the price of bronzes with inscriptions was already prohibitively high.
Not to mention the modern society, which has become more and more economically prosperous in recent years.
Soon, under the witness of everyone, the price of this bronze tripod exceeded eight figures and reached nine figures.
Finally, after more than ten minutes of competition, the three-legged bronze tripod was successfully auctioned for 127 million.
The auction ended, and when Xiao Bai was thinking about how to pay for the items, two brocade boxes were delivered to Xiao Bai and others.
"Mr. No. 79, this is the bronze seal you took. Mr. No. 81, this is the azure-glazed porcelain plate from the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty that you took."
"We will collect the payment after escorting several people back to the original location. Now, would you please four of you follow us into the car."
…
The road was bumpy again.
When we returned to the parking lot, it was already past two o'clock in the evening.
After paying off the 300,000 he needed to pay, Xiao Bai said goodbye to the three of them while holding the brocade box that was not too big, and took a ride back home alone.
After a simple wash, Xiao Bai sat at the desk.
Although it was very late now, he still couldn't sleep.
Today's trip to the ghost market really subverted his worldview.
On the way back, Xiao Bai made a rough calculation.
Not counting the antiques that were negotiated and traded at the stalls, the total amount of the auction by the organizer alone exceeded 500 million.
The number behind this number represents countless ancient tombs that have been robbed, and countless antiques that may have been lost overseas.
But he could only be a witness and could do nothing else.
No.
Looking at the box in front of him, Xiao Bai had a wry smile on his face. He was not only a witness, but also a participant.
There was nothing he could do, Fang Xiaoyin's temptation to him was too great.
Opening the brocade box, what appeared in front of Xiao Bai's eyes was a piece of skin the size of a plate. When he opened the skin, the small seal appeared in front of Xiao Bai's eyes.
And at this moment.
Xiao Bai was temporarily out of mood to look at the small seal.
If Xiao Bai had never come into contact with the two-faced sister drum before, Xiao Bai might not be able to see anything wrong with this skin.
But it was precisely because he had come into contact with the human skin product before that Xiao Bai recognized it at a glance. This piece of skin with strange patterns was human skin!
"grass!"
Xiao Bai cursed angrily and threw the yellowed human skin aside in disgust.
He didn't understand why the person who sent the small seal for auction wanted to wrap the bronze seal with human skin.
Is it the person who sent the photo who didn't know it was human skin, or the other person knew everything but did it deliberately.
Thinking of this, Xiao Bai endured the discomfort and carefully looked at the lines on the human skin.
But after looking carefully for a long time, Xiao Bai still didn't see anything special about the pattern on this piece of human skin.
If the pattern composed of insect Gu on his chest can barely be identified, what kind of totem it should be.
But the lines on this human skin are like a child's doodles in circles, revealing no information at all.
"Damn, damn it!"
Cursing secretly, Xiao Bai now only hopes that the person who sent this small seal to take pictures got this small seal by accident and knows nothing about other things about the human skin and the bronze seal.
But Xiao Bai also understood that this was just deceiving himself.
Since the other party has so much energy to send this thing that does not belong to the auction to the finale of the ghost market auction, how could he not see that it is a human skin.
Picking up the small bronze seal that fell aside, Xiao Bai looked at the engraved pattern carefully this time.
After a while, he confirmed that the pattern on this small seal was indeed completely different from the previous one.
But from the size and workmanship, it can be seen that this was probably made by an official of a dynasty.
"ah!"
Just as he was thinking about what the little beast on the small seal was, Xiao Bai felt another pain in his left hand holding the small seal.
When he turned over the small bronze seal, the lines on the small seal disappeared again, leaving only the bare seal surface of the original sun-engraved totem.
Oh shit! Why don’t I remember it?
Cursing secretly, Xiao Bai hammered the table hard.
Then he suddenly remembered something, took off his upper body clothes, and quickly ran into the bathroom.
In front of the mirror.
Xiao Bai's naked eyes saw a mass of ink moving continuously from his left forearm.
Inside elbow.
Shoulder.
Chest.
As the mass of ink reached his chest.
After a while, the totem quickly dispersed like a drop of thick ink dripping into water.
A few minutes later, it overlapped with the totem on his chest...
