Boss Zhen didn't say any more, because even the most stupid person should know by now where the tiny scratches on the head of the Jade Buddha came from.
Naturally, we also know the "value" contained behind these small scratches.
After all, although I dare not say 100% of the nearly fifty people sitting here, at least two-thirds are here for the Fountain of Youth.
Boss Zhen stopped at this point and did not say any more. He is a person who knows how to control other people's psychology and knows when to speak and when to shut up.
Indeed, many times, not speaking is more effective than chattering.
Boss Zhen didn't say anything. He slowly took out a Zhongnanhai from his pocket. He didn't light it, but just held the cigarette in his hand and played with it. A pair of falcon-like eyes passed over everyone's body.
After a while, Boss Zhen said slowly: "Let's start bidding!"
As soon as Boss Zhen finished speaking, a dozen girls wearing ultra-short cheongsam walked into the hall.
I saw that each of them was holding a small wooden box with exquisite workmanship in their hands. They were like butterflies flying through the flowers, wandering among the guests in the venue.
The buyers in the market wrote the price they thought was reasonable on a small card, and then put it into the small wooden box in the hands of the girls.
Those girls will immediately put a seal on the small box and write the Chinese character number corresponding to the buyer on it.
After doing all this, the little girls in cheongsam will put the small wooden boxes in their hands into the unified iron box.
After everyone has finished bidding, a big man will seal the iron box and carry it to the back hall of Zhenpinzhai to verify the price.
The waiting process is always quite unbearable. By this time, the food and wine on the table had already gone cold. Although no one had touched a chopstick, the waiters at Zhenpinzhai still consciously replaced each table with new food and wine.
Wine is the best wine, and food is naturally the best food.
But still no one moved their chopsticks, everyone was waiting for the final result.
Time passed like this, minute by minute, until half an hour later, the girl who had pushed Boss Zhen out slowly walked out of the back hall.
Her appearance cheered everyone up, and everyone's eyes turned to her.
The girl has a very strong psychological quality and does not have the slightest stage fright when facing the eager eyes of everyone.
I saw her walking slowly to the stage in the middle of the hall, clearing her throat, and said softly: "Everyone, I'm sorry! I kept you waiting for so long! Our boss has already verified the price you offered. High, some people are low, and several people even offered exactly the same price, so it took me a little time to verify the price, and I hope you can forgive me."
Although the girl's words were polite, there was no apologetic expression on her face. On the contrary, the girl's face was filled with arrogance.
She paused for a moment as she spoke, and after looking around with her cold, knife-like eyes, she slowly continued: "Now that the results have come out, please do me a favor, Mr. No. 413." Follow me to the back hall, and you can do the rest on your own..."
Before the girl finished speaking, two guys in navy blue coats walked up to a fat man. One of the guys said softly: "Master, please come!"
This fat man of "Four Shisan" was obviously a little proud. He stood up without saying a word, and clasped his fists from side to side, obviously meaning to say, "Everyone, you accept it! Accept it!"
The big fat man named "Four Shisan" was wearing a mask at the moment, so his expression couldn't be seen, but there was no need to ask, he was probably happy.
In fact, it would be the same for anyone else. After all, the head of Vairocana Buddha is a treasure that everyone wants to get.
After the big fat man of "Four Shisan" bowed his hands and thanked them, he followed the two guys to the stage in the center of the hall.
The girl gave a slight "Hail" to the fat man on the "Fushi San" number, and then said softly: "Please come with me!"
After saying that, without waiting for the fat man's response, he walked towards the back hall.
We won't mention the other people. Basically, everyone goes back to their own homes at this time to find their own mothers. Very few people will stay in Zhenpinzhai, which has many rules.
Let's just talk about the big fat guy named "Four Shisan".
I saw the big fat man named "Four Shisan" trotting behind the girl, but the girl showed no intention of slowing down when she saw this.
Although the fat man on the "Four Shisan" was full of complaints, he did not dare to say a word at this time and could only lower his head and follow closely behind.
The girl waited for the fat man named "Fushi San" to turn three corners and came to an extremely elegant room.
This room is antique, and the decoration doesn't seem to be anything special. It's not luxurious.
There was only a wooden table and four chairs in the room. There was an antique shelf next to the side wall with some bottles and cans on it, and a landscape painting hung on the other wall.
This is seen by people who are not familiar with it, but people who know it can see at a glance that if every item in this house is put on the market, it can be enough to buy a house within the second ring road of Beijing.
Let’s not mention anything else for now, but as for the landscape painting hanging on the wall, anyone with a discerning eye can recognize it as the "Cold Forest Picture" by Li Cheng, a scholar from the Song Dynasty.
Li Cheng's paintings are extremely rare. Many of the existing "Cold Forest Pictures" at major auctions claim to be his works, but in fact most of them are imitations by later generations.
So far, only the "Reading Stone Tablets" hidden in a Japanese museum has been confirmed to be authentic.
In 1975, the painting "Reading a Stone Tablet" was sold for US$7.5 million at the Tokyo Chuo Auction, Japan's most famous auction at the time.
To this day, the price of this authentic painting of Li Cheng's "Hanlin Picture" can be imagined.
The big fat man on the "Four Shisan" number was naturally a knowledgeable person, and he naturally understood the value of "Cold Forest Picture", so he couldn't help but take a second look.
Boss Zhen is a thoughtful person, so the changes in the big fat man cannot escape his eyes.
Boss Zhen first poured the big fat man a cup of tea in a leisurely manner, then gently put the magnetic tea cup in front of the big fat man, and then said with a smile: "If Boss Li likes it, I will show you this "Han" painting when I leave later. Lin Tu" will be given to you."
Boss Zhen's words made the fat man stunned. He waved his hands and said, "A gentleman doesn't take away others' good things. How dare I take away Boss Zhen's beloved paintings?"
Boss Zhen smiled and said: "Boss Li spent 180 million on me, but I, Zhen, can still afford to give this to me, just a copy of "Pictures of the Cold Forest"."
After Boss Zhen finished speaking, without waiting for Boss Li to speak, he continued: "Come, drink tea! Take off the mask! There are no outsiders here. This is the Dahongpao I specially prepared for Boss Li, a serious Dahongpao!"
Upon hearing this, Boss Li gingerly took off the mask on his face, revealing his original face that looked like a pig's head.
Boss Li is very old, even in his sixties, but in front of Boss Zhen, he is like a primary school student, not even daring to take a breath.
Boss Zhen saw that Boss Li's hands were slightly trembling, so he smiled and said, "Boss Li, there is no need to be nervous. After all, you can be considered a person who has experienced strong winds and waves. Why should you be so nervous in this small temple like mine."
Boss Li smiled slightly awkwardly, picked up the porcelain bowl on the table, and drank the tea soup in one gulp.
After wiping his mouth, Boss Li smiled and said, "Boss Zhen, when can I leave with the Jade Buddha Head?"
Boss Zhen looked at Boss Li and said with a smile: "Wait a little longer!"
Boss Li was stunned and asked, "Wait a minute? What are you waiting for?"
Boss Zhen said: "Wait for someone!"
Boss Li asked: "Who are you waiting for?"
Boss Zhen said: "Wait for a woman!"
Boss Li asked in surprise: "Waiting for a woman?"
Boss Zhen nodded and said, "Yes! A very beautiful woman!"
Boss Li asked doubtfully: "Does this woman have something to do with our deal? Why should we wait for her?"
Boss Zhen smiled slightly and said, "Of course it does matter!"
Boss Li asked in confusion: "What does it have to do with it? Is she the seller behind it?"
Boss Zhen did not speak. At this time, a woman's voice came from outside the room, "I am not a seller. I am just an ordinary seller like you, Boss Li."
Upon hearing this, Boss Li hurriedly turned his head and looked behind him, and saw a woman in gorgeous clothes walking in.
This woman is a middle-aged beautiful woman.
She looks very similar to Guan Zhilin when she was young. Although she is over fifty, her whole body is extremely well maintained. Her delicate and fair skin, coupled with her curvy figure, makes her look no worse than any other young girl. Up a few points.
This woman's figure is extremely elegant, and every step she takes exudes the unique charm of a mature woman.
Boss Li unknowingly became a little obsessed with it, and he didn't even realize that he was drooling.
The beautiful woman seemed to be used to this kind of situation, and she was not angry but happy.
The beautiful woman first took out a personal handkerchief from her arms and wiped Boss Li's saliva, and then she sat directly on Boss Li's lap in front of Boss Zhen and said with a smile: "I have admired the name Boss Li of Nancheng for a long time." It’s been a long time.”
Boss Li was usually the boss of countless women, but at this moment he seemed like a young man who had gone out into the world of mortals. He didn't know where to put his hands for a while.
After a while, Boss Li stammered and replied: "Dare I ask you...what is your name?"
The beautiful woman smiled slightly and said, "My surname is Sun. There are eight sisters in my family. I am the second oldest. You can call me Sun Erniang!"
Boss Li had obviously relaxed a little at this time. He first patted Sun Erniang's back with his right hand, and then couldn't help but slide it down until it reached below Sun Erniang's waist.
Boss Li seemed very satisfied with the position he found for his right hand. He smiled and said, "Sun Erniang? This name seems to be the same as the name of Sun Erniang, the dominatrix in Water Margin..."
Sun Erniang nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Haha, that's right! Not only do Sun Erniang and I have the same name, we even do the same business..."
Boss Li smiled and said: "You also open a tavern? Then one day I will go and have a look! When I go, you must have a few drinks with me in person."
But who would have thought that Sun Erniang shook her head and said: "Boss Li, you are wrong. I don't run a tavern. I said that I am in the same business as Sun Erniang in Water Margin, but I actually mean..."
Boss Li was slightly startled and said, "What does it mean?"
Sun Erniang leaned into Boss Li's ear and whispered: "It means that the two of us opened... are black shops!"
