Chapter 871 Auction

On the coffee table, Mao Zhenhai held a magnifying glass and looked carefully at a white silver dollar in his hand.

The silver dollar is about three fingers wide, with silver light transparent. The front is carved with reliefs of two dragons playing with beads, marked with the words "one or two".

Mao Zhenhai looked at the magnifying glass for a long time, finally sighed lightly, then put down the magnifying glass in his hand with satisfaction, and then carefully placed the silver dollar in the previous red wooden box.

After carefully doing all this, Mao Zhenhai took off his white gloves: "The 23rd year of Guangxu silver coins, two dragons playing with pearls, the number of existence is very small, the most important thing is well preserved, almost flawless, good goods, Mr. Zhang is indeed extraordinary, he took out such a good object for the first time, and admired it."

Hearing Mao Zhenhai's praise, Zhang Kun smiled. This was Yao Zhiping's collection in the storage room. Although it was not placed in the real collection room, since it could be stored by Yao Zhiping, it was naturally not an ordinary product.

When he came out today, in addition to taking a dragon-shaped jade pendant, Zhang Kun also brought this silver coin for the two dragons playing with pearls.

"Mr. Mao thought that if this silver coin was auctioned, how much would it be?"

Hearing Zhang Kun's words, Mao Zhenhai pondered for a while: "If Mr. Zhang wants to participate in this auction, I will set the minimum price of 4 million, but the final transaction price will be about 5 million."

But when he said this, Mao Zhenhai paused for a while and said softly: "However, I suggest that Mr. Zhang should not put it this time if he really wants to auction it."

"This silver coin with Double Dragon Playing Pearl is really good. If I can invest some publicity in the early stage, I will find it very hopeful even if I buy six million. Among the buyers who come this time, there are not many who like to collect coins, which may make the auction price not reach the most ideal effect."

After hearing Mao Zhenhai's words, Zhang Kun glanced at Yao Zhiping in the air, and then nodded secretly. Mao Zhenhai didn't say anything else, but he still had the ability to identify it. The results and valuation of this silver coin were basically the same as what Yao Zhiping said.

Moreover, Mao Zhenhai’s later suggestions are quite sincere. Whether a good auction item is promoted or not can be said to determine the final transaction price. A good publicity that attracts favorite collectors, will definitely increase the auction price of this Double Dragon Playing Pearl Silver Coin by 20% or even 30%.

but…….

Zhang Kun chuckled lightly, then whispered to Mao Zhenhai: "Thank you for your advice, but I think it's better to just do this one. Since I have met it, this is fate. You see, maybe you will meet someone who likes this silver coin at this auction. Mr. Mao, can you help you walk through the back door?"

After hearing Zhang Kun say this, Mao Zhenhai looked at Zhang Kun for a long time, and finally nodded with a sigh: "Mr. Zhang is a wealthy person. Since you want to go to this auction, it is naturally fine. Maybe you can really get a good price today."

The two chatted for a few more times, and then knocked on the office door alone. It turned out that the auction was about to be about to finish, and the show was about twenty minutes to start. Some buyers had come one after another, and some of them were Mao Zhenhai who had to come in person.

So Mao Zhenhai greeted someone and added Zhang Kun's Double Dragon Playing Pearl to the auction item, and then took Zhang Kun to the auction.

The Beijing Auction Store at Jiade International is not very big, but it is not small. The room is arranged in arranging round chairs similar to booths. Of course, there are also side by side seats. In general, it is probably enough to accommodate about 200 people to enter the venue.

Although there are not many people, Jiade International is conducting high-end auctions. The auction items here start at least hundreds of thousands of yuan, and countless collections sold for tens of millions of yuan. Even hundreds of millions of yuan have been sold for items worth hundreds of millions of yuan several times. Those who can come here are either rich or noble.

At this time, there were still twenty minutes before the auction started, but many buyers had already arrived, some were sitting in the booth and some were drinking tea quietly, while some were sitting together chatting and talking.

After Mao Zhenhai led Zhang Kun to a booth, he apologized and then greeted the guests.

Those who can come to Jiade International are either rich or noble, and they must be well treated. Losing any guest is an irreparable loss for Jiade International. Mao Zhenhai naturally cannot make such a low-level mistake.

Zhang Kun sat in the booth, and immediately there was a hot tea delivered by the staff next to him. Zhang Kun tasted it gently, and then listened to Yao Zhiping pointing to the collection buyers in the venue and introducing it.

"I saw that tall guy, not one of the largest builders in Yanjing, with assets of tens of billions. He took a fancy to my Qing Qianlong blue and white sea water, red colored dragon pattern eight auspicious Ruyi ear gourd bottle for a long time, and the bid was 80 million. Logically speaking, the price is really not low, and it is difficult to get this number when you take it out for auction, but I just don't sell it." As he said, Yao Zhiping smiled proudly.

"There is also that, fat, round, and big names in the domestic film and television industry are not the kind of movies, but investors, and most of the famous domestic movies are involved."

"Do you remember the Northern Song Dynasty Huang Tingjian's "The Pulse of the Pigeon" in my collection room? I don't know why the news leaked. He found out that he offered 400 million yuan or 400 million yuan. He begged me several times, hehe, but I don't sell it. This is a rare treasure in history, and I can't collect it."

"And there, that..."

Yao Zhiping pointed to the people in the venue and introduced them to Zhang Kun one by one, while boasting that someone wanted to buy his collection and how much it would be, but he just didn't sell it, with a look of sarcastic look on his face.

But it’s not to mention that Yao Zhiping has been in the antique appraisal industry for so many years and is still called the most well-deserved appraisal master. He basically knows most of the people participating in the auction. As Zhang Kun had guessed before, they are either rich or noble.

Listening from Yao Zhiping that he occasionally said something about bidding hundreds of millions and tens of millions of dollars, Zhang Kun was almost talking about why the Chinese RMB was so valuable.

After a while of nonsense, people came one after another, and then the auction finally began.

A few clichés to say hello to the beginning, and then you go straight to the topic. The first collection is a piece of blue and white porcelain, which comes from Hutian Kiln in Jingdezhen, Yuan Dynasty.

Although it was the early appearance of blue and white porcelain, because the technology was not yet fully mature at that time, it was not as good as the Qing Dynasty porcelain at its peak in terms of beauty. However, in terms of age, it also had a certain collection value, with a minimum price of 600,000.

After raising hands in groups of three or three, the deal was finally sold for 820,000 yuan.

After that, more than a dozen collections were sold one after another, including hundreds of thousands and millions, but there has not been a sky-high price of tens of millions yet, and three of them failed to be sold. It seems that not all auction items can be successfully sold.
