"Three hundred!" Heraclius showed no sign of weakness. If the pot was taken away by Dagobert I today, this guy would not know how to sneer in front of him.
Don't you want to lose face with other nobles?
Dagobert I took a few deep breaths, not because he was too expensive, but because he was angry!
Three hundred is already the highest price for a single product since the auction started today.
Although Tang Dynasty porcelain is very expensive, it is not so expensive.
"Three hundred and ten!" But after just a pause, Dagobert I continued to bid. He had already paid more than two hundred, so what if he added a few dozen gold coins?
"Three hundred and fifty!" Heraclius shouted. At worst, he could just use all the money he earned today to buy this pot, and he wouldn't suffer any loss.
"Hmph! Five hundred gold coins!" Dagobert I stood up directly.
The Byzantine Empire was usually aloof and aloof, but even after being beaten up by the Arabs and still acting like this, I was not convinced.
Not to mention that kings are never childish, these European kings have done a lot of childish things.
At this time, everyone was looking at the two of them. Five hundred gold coins, everyone knew that this was much more than the value of the porcelain itself.
Heraclid hesitated for a moment, then Li Zhi whispered beside him: "Your Majesty, it's almost done."
It's really an exaggeration to sell a chamber pot for five hundred gold coins, even though I didn't sell it myself.
And he knew that Heraclius probably wouldn't bid anymore, so he just handed him a step up.
"Dagobert I, congratulations, you won!" Heraclius nodded to Dagobert.
Although it was a bit painful, Dagobert I still felt it was very worthwhile to get Heraclius to admit defeat.
He asked his men to carry gold coins to the stage, and after counting out five hundred, Dagobert I didn't even want the box, and came down directly holding the Yue kiln celadon carved pot.
And I actually went over and smelled the carvings on it.
Li Zhi's mouth twitched when he saw it, and he admired the colleague he had never met even more.
He also figured out that most of the rumors when he entered the city were spread by his colleagues. After all, some of Li Shimin's deeds were blown, but many of them were true.
Only those who understand will know.
Then this auction might have the shadow of one of my peers behind it.
If word spreads that he returned to China and sold a chamber pot for five hundred gold coins, it would definitely become a legend in the business world of the Tang Dynasty!
The fierce bidding just now also heated up the atmosphere of the entire auction.
Fabialo also took the opportunity to shout at this time: "Then here is our last auction item, a real rare treasure. Legend has it that it is a set of Jun kiln red glaze tableware fired by the fire of heaven!"
The box made by Tang Ping and others was brought up. The clever thing about this box is that each box has a buckle.
After the box is put up, the tableware is still stuck inside, making it easy to show it to others.
"Wow! Is this flaming red color really caused by the flames of heaven?"
"This is the top luxury product. Look, the cushions underneath are all silk, right? Such gorgeous and precious silk can only be placed underneath as a cushion. You can imagine how precious this set of tableware is!! "
“If this thing is photographed, it could even become a national treasure of our country!”
"Yes, you must not miss it this time!"
Many kings did not follow the price of the celadon pot just now because they set their sights on the last lot.
Everyone knows that what comes out last is often the best.
At this time, all the kings have begun to prepare to bid. But before that... they all looked in Li Zhi's direction.
Whether this thing is true or not depends on Li Zhi's attitude.
As for whether the Byzantine Empire would work with the Visigothic Kingdom to deceive them, they were not worried.
It is impossible for such two big countries to offend all the neighboring countries for such a small amount of gold coins.
Naturally, Heraclius also asked Li Zhi.
Li Zhi nodded seriously: "This must be produced by Jun Kiln."
Although he is not a particularly big businessman in the Tang Dynasty, he must still have strength if he can follow the merchants' federation to do business in Arabia.
He is also able to make this basic distinction. Such Jun kiln products with obvious characteristics can be seen at a glance.
He even stood up and asked, "Can I get a closer look?"
Fabialo didn't know what Li Zhi would say, so he hesitated: "This..."
"Fabiallo, let Li take a look."
"Yes, let him see it and introduce it to us more!"
The other kings all spoke, Fabialo looked at Jindila, what can Jindila do? Could it be that you are not allowed to see it?
He could only nodded vaguely.
Fabialo said helplessly to Li Zhi: "Then please, Li!!"
Li Zhi walked into the set of tableware and looked at it seriously.
"That's right, it's made by the Jun Kiln Emperor!" Li Zhi confirmed it first, then became a little confused.
There is actually a slight difference between used and unused porcelain. First of all, the slight difference can be seen in the gloss.
These Europeans have not had much contact with each other, so of course they cannot tell the difference. However, Li Zhi was exposed to porcelain every day when he was in China. Originally, his business also included porcelain.
So he keenly felt how this set of porcelain seemed to be... used!
Did my colleague auction off the bowl he used to eat and the pot he used to urinate in?
Impossible, how could there be such a businessman from Tang Dynasty who has no bottom line?
Moreover, these things all reflect that the colleague has an extraordinary status and is probably engaged in royal business, which is why there are so many royal products for sale.
He didn't think about Tang Ping. Although he knew about Tang Ping's disappearance, Tang Ping was the sacred and great god of business in his heart.
He is a genius in the business world who has created a variety of business models, and is the idol pursued by all businessmen in the business world!
How is it possible to take out things like chamber pots and put them up for auction? ? Absolutely impossible!
Just like a fan wouldn't believe that his idol would pick his nose or fart in front of the camera.
They cannot accept this kind of house collapse!
Seeing that Li Zhi did not question the authenticity of this set of tableware, Fabialo and Jindila were relieved.
"The starting price for this set of tableware is... four hundred gold coins!"
Fabialo bought this set of tableware from old Peter for two hundred gold coins.
But looking at the warm atmosphere at the scene, even Li Zhi certified that it was an imperial product of the Tang Dynasty, so he boldly raised the base price of 300 gold coins to 400 gold coins.
