Looking at the time, the auction started in ten minutes. Chen Xuan was very attentive to pouring water and peeling fruit for Zhu Yu and the others. At this time, she didn't look like the white-collar worker before, but more like a servant.
Zhu Yu suddenly thought of something and asked:
"Chen...is it Tiangan? Xuan, is it the beginning of the Thousand Character Classic?"
Chen Xuan suddenly paused, raised his head, and looked at Zhu Yu in surprise:
"I didn't expect Mr. Zhu to guess it."
"Actually, I should have guessed it a long time ago," Zhu Yu smiled, "It can be called Qiankun Auction House, so ranking it in this way is also the meaning of the question."
The two of them said nothing.
However, Cao Dalong was very curious and wanted to ask, but Ran Jie stopped him with his eyes.
The auction started, and a beautiful woman walked to the center of the hall, and her crisp voice spread to every room:
"Dear guests, welcome to Qiankun Auction House to participate in this auction. Without further ado, let me introduce the first item."
A beautiful woman wearing Hanfu carried a bronze seal to the front of the stage. The spotlight shines on the copper seal, revealing the entire copper seal.
There is also a small screen on the TV in each room showing clear photos of the six sides of the copper seal.
While showing, the host introduced:
"This bronze seal is the seal of Liejiaomi, King of the Wusun Kingdom in the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions. It was excavated from Kazakhstan and authenticated by authoritative experts. This Liejiaomi is the husband of Princess Xijun of the Han Dynasty. …”
As a native of the northwest, Zhu Yu knew that this hunter was arrogant. Marriage is a political means for the dynasty, but it is a disaster for the princess sent. According to the custom of Wusun country, when the old king dies, his concubine will be inherited by his successor, whether the successor is his son or his brother.
Both princesses Jieyou and Xijun have more than one husband. In such an environment...
Zhu Yu looked at this square seal and felt very uncomfortable.
"...the starting price is one million yuan, and each increase in price shall not be less than 100,000 yuan."
The starting price was relatively low, but because Liejiao Mi was somewhat famous and had the status of the Khan's son-in-law, the auction was very lively. After a while, the price rose to 4.5 million yuan.
"Five million." Zhu Yu suddenly increased the price.
"Guest No. 9 bids five million." The host spoke very gently and did not deliberately stir up the atmosphere. If someone made an offer, she would just announce it.
Zhu Yu's bid surprised many people because he had never made a bid from the beginning. Is the sudden increase in price now an attempt to cut off the price, or is it just a whim?
For this copper seal, five million is already a high price. After all, no matter how famous Liejiaomi is, he is only one of the thirty-six countries in the Western Region. Wusun Kingdom is considered a big country among the thirty-six countries, but that's all.
If it weren't for Wusun's famous domestic horse and its important position, the marriage might not have been their turn.
"...The third time...Okay, deal! Lot No. 1 belongs to guest No. 9!"
Zhu Yu didn't expect that he would get this copper seal just by making a casual quotation. In fact, he didn't particularly want it, but he just had some feelings about it at the time.
The seal was delivered, and Chen Xuan assisted Zhu Yu in transferring the money to the auction house.
Zhu Yu Tianyan glanced at Tianqi and was surprised to find that this seal had another mystery?
What a treasure!
Not bad! I've been really lucky lately!
Seeing that Zhu Yu's expression suddenly improved and he smiled, Chen Xuan asked curiously:
"Mr. Zhu, do you think this seal is good?"
"It's very good, I should say, very good!"
Zhu Yu played with the copper seal. If it weren't for the inconvenience now, he would have planned to study it carefully.
"... Next, the second auction item is the royal sword of Ming Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji. As we all know, Ming Xuanzong was a very wise and enlightened emperor. If he had not died young..."
The host had a relatively clear understanding of the origins of Ming Xuanzong, and his introduction was not stiff at all, it felt a bit like telling a story.
And because of films such as "The Ming Dynasty" and "Ming Dynasty 1566", as well as some people on the Internet exaggerating the character of the Ming Dynasty emperors, some emperors of the Ming Dynasty were praised a lot.
And this Ming Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji is one of them. Many people say that if Zhu Zhanji had not died early, the Ming Dynasty would not be so miserable later. At least there won't be any changes in the Tumu Fort, nor will there be so many weird things happening in the future.
Of course, this is just people's speculation.
Therefore, although Zhu Zhanji is not as famous as his grandfather, Emperor Yongle, he is at least somewhat famous. So the starting price for his sword was one million, and it quickly soared to 7.1 million——
Zhu Yu saw on the big screen that this sword was very well preserved, no worse than the swords of Emperor Qianlong stored in the British Museum.
When it was displayed previously, the sword was unsheathed. It looked like it had no rust and was well maintained.
Think about it, the things used by the emperor are more expensive than the king's seal that I took before, which is normal.
However, Zhu Yu had no interest in the knife. He suddenly remembered that he still had a bronze pen, so he took it out and held it in his hand.
Chen Xuan's eyes lit up when he looked at the pen, but he refrained from asking.
Her role at the moment was not that of a staff member. Zhu Yu had no intention of taking out the money, so she naturally couldn't ask more questions.
In the end, the sword was auctioned off by guest No. 16 for eleven million.
From Zhu Yu's point of view, he didn't expect that the knife was quite expensive.
"The third lot is a piece of jade from the Kunlun Mountains. This jade is extraordinary. It contains a mass of water. This water has existed for tens of millions of years..."
Change source app]
The girl in Hanfu brought up the jade on a lacquer tray.
This jade is about the size of a football and has an irregular shape.
"...This jade comes from mountains and rivers. The white jade seed material has reached the level of mutton-fat jade and has no cracks. After expert inspection, except for the bag of water in the middle, the entire jade flesh is integrated inside and outside, and there are no impurities. .”
Water in rocks is nothing particularly unusual. Mainly there is water in some crystal bags or agate bags, which is the product of changes in the movement of the earth's crust.
But as soon as this piece of jade was brought up, Zhu Yu felt his heavenly eye sending out a signal of extreme desire!
It wants it!
Desperately want it!
From such a distance, the third eye can feel the difference in the jade?
Zhu Yu simply opened his Heavenly Eye and looked over, and found that there was indeed a bag of water in the jade, but the water shone with colorful light under the glance of the Heavenly Eye. It was obviously a ball of energy water!
Zhu Yu really didn't expect that he would encounter such a ball of energy that the Sky Eye desires here!
This mass of energy has been liquefied, and it is much greater than the energy contained in those emeralds!
Zhu Yu only had one thought at this moment!
Gotta get it!
"Because this jade is of high quality, large, and weighs 12,247 grams. In addition, it contains a bag of water that may have been formed hundreds of millions of years ago, so it is extremely valuable."
After the host made a rare introduction, he then said:
"Therefore, the starting price is 10 million yuan, and each increase will be no less than 500,000 yuan. The auction starts now!"
All over the world, the main consumption place for jade is China. In other words, only China, or people in the Greater China circle have a special liking for jade.
Therefore, most of the people who come to participate in the auction here have some research on jade. Therefore, the auction was quite intense from the beginning, from 10 million to 55 million in less than a minute!
And even so, the price keeps rising!
Zhu Yu pressed the button and entered a number of 80 million.
"The price for the guest in Room 9 is 80 million." The host quoted the price calmly.
As soon as the price came out, there was a moment of silence.
Everyone is increasing their prices by 3 to 5 million. No. 9 is not following the rules. By raising so much at once, isn’t it because he is determined to win?
However, none of the dozen or so guests were short of money. Someone paused and immediately followed them.
"The guest on the 15th quoted a price of 85 million!"
"Guest No. 9 offers 100 million!"
Zhu Yu currently has a lot of money, but this is the first time he has seen such a stone with energy water. He feels that as long as it does not exceed 600 million, he can accept it.
His quotation really scared some people so much that they stopped bidding. It wasn't because they were really scared, but because they felt it wasn't worth it.
But some guests' anger was aroused, and guest No. 11 asked for 110 million.
Although the subsequent quotations were not as frequent as before, the bidding range was much wider!
"One hundred and eighty million!" Guest No. 8 suddenly made a bid, which also shocked the others.
This time, even the host was a little surprised, because this piece of jade was brought out by guest No. 8.
Is this a price hike, or is it intended to be recycled?
Zhu Yu increased the price again without hesitation.
"Guest No. 9 bids 200 million!"
The price exceeded Guest No. 8's expectations, and he did not quote any more.
Guests No. 11 and 15 tried to increase the price twice more, but Zhu Yu did not back down at all, and finally won the jade for 230 million.
Payment was made as usual, and guest No. 8 was extremely happy.
He paid NT$30 million for this piece of jade. At that time, many people thought he had lost money, but they didn't expect that when he came here to put it up for auction, it actually increased seven times!
Make a lot of money!
Of course, to each his own.
Zhu Yu put the things away and resisted not letting his eyes absorb the energy in the jade on the spot, otherwise he was afraid of what might happen on the spot.
The auction continued and did not stop because of the high price of more than 200 million. Zhu Yu even felt that it might be normal for the high price of more than 200 million to be auctioned at this auction.
Next is the Russian Diamond Crown. This treasure has been favored by many people. The final auction price was 70 million.
Zhu Yu looked over with his heavenly eyes and found that the crown had been repaired and the diamonds on it had been replaced.
However, the main body of the crown is still the original, about three hundred years old, so it is no problem to say it is the crown of the Russian royal family.
Ah San's golden Buddha, decorated with many large gems, was finally sold for NT$31 million, which was not as high as expected.
Zhu Yu guessed it was a matter of aesthetics. Inviting a Buddha statue home also depends on your vision. If it is not a Buddha statue that you recognize, it may be difficult for you to be willing to take it back to worship.
“Next, there is a blockbuster item in our auction, which is a gold mask from the Indian sacrificial trail.”
The girl in Hanfu brought up the mask.
Under the spotlight, the mask glows mysteriously.
"This mask has extraordinary effects." The host said with some excitement, "Our experts have verified that this mask contains powerful life energy and can keep the human body fully active..."
Although the guests were all in the room, it was obvious that the atmosphere suddenly became heated!
"The credibility of our auction house's experts is very high, so there is no need to question it. Of course, in order to confirm that what we are saying is true, each guest can be allowed to touch the mask and feel it."
The girl in Hanfu raised her face and asked each guest to touch her, starting from guest room No. 1.
Here on the 9th, the Hanfu girl is no exception.
Zhu Yu just nodded with his finger.
The other guests who touched it were all shocked!
After the sixteen guests finished touching it, Zhu Yu thought to himself that there was probably less than half of the energy left in it!
The host continued:
"Everyone should be able to feel the uniqueness of this mask. Let me explain to you that our experts came into contact with this mask a few days ago. The next day, I felt that my five senses were greatly enhanced.
So, you should be able to feel the benefits of this tomorrow. In addition, the biggest benefit is that this mask can automatically absorb energy. In other words, after the energy inside is absorbed and placed in a place with a better environment, it can automatically recharge—"
"Okay, the auction has begun, the starting price is 10 million yuan..."
"Guest No. 8 bids 100 million!"
The piece of jade on the 8th made 200 million before, and now is the time to be rich.
He touched the jade stone just now and felt the extremely comfortable feeling. He fell in love with it right away!
You must get this mask!
The bid of 100 million means that he has made money, and he can be willful when he has money.
Secondly, it is natural to hope to scare away competitors.
However, he naturally underestimated the appeal of the content introduced by the host just now to this guest, and also underestimated the financial resources of other guests.
"The guest on the 16th quoted a price of 150 million!"
"Guest No. 12 offers 200 million!"
…
For these guests, money is now just a number. And health and living a long life are the most important!
Now that they have something that can extend their lives right in front of them, how could they give up?
Therefore, the price kept rising until it reached more than 400 million, and then slowly stopped.
In the end, this mask was photographed by guest No. 16 for 510 million.
This price is really beyond Zhu Yu's imagination.
In his opinion, this mask cannot be compared with the jade stone containing energy water.
After all, I still have a lot of space in my own space!
But Zhu Yu reacted immediately.
Things are rare and valuable.
He attracted a large amount of emerald energy, absorbed the energy of the crystal skull, and also absorbed the energy of the huge totem pole.
So the energy in the mask is not important.
But in the eyes of these ordinary people, the energy in this mask is already shocking enough!
Thinking about the hundreds of golden sacrifices in his hand that were stronger than masks, Zhu Yu felt a little bloated!
