Chapter 227 Interesting Auction
In the eyes of Westerners, Easterners should be similar, but Chinese and Japanese people will definitely not agree with this view. Meeting by chance is nothing more than a nod, and neither side even has any intention of talking. Although Jing Jian is not an angry young man, perhaps in this era, China and Japan are still quite friendly, but some emotions are deeply rooted, and in my heart, I am somewhat repulsive of Japan.
Finally, the master of ceremonies reminded that the auction was about to begin. After receiving the license plate, Jing Jian walked into the venue and joked with Qin Zi: "What do you like? If you like, I will buy it for you." At this time, the price of the European art market was quite reasonable. Ordinary artworks, that is, hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars, are already high-quality products.
"No!" Qin Zi refused quite firmly. When she looked at those works of art, she really liked it. But when she saw the price marked on the side (some lots at auctions will be marked with an inflated direct transaction price in the display before the auction. If someone agrees to this price, they can be sold directly without passing the auction. Of course, popular lots will definitely not have such "good things"), and the string of zeros marked with the dollar sign, she felt distressed again.
Since following Jing Jian, Qin Zi has formed a very unique view of money. Qin Zi is so at ease that she can send 20,000 US dollars to buy a house for her parents, and Qin Zi reluctantly agreed. However, Qin Zi seems quite frugal in other consumption, and she doesn't even agree to give her brothers money directly. And she used to embezzle some more from the food, but now she has become completely "empty".
Sometimes thinking about it, a woman like Qin Zi is actually quite cute. She has unconditional trust in her men and has not even considered leaving a way out for herself. In some ways, she is still in the girlish stage of fantasy, and she is likely to be like this for the rest of her life.
...
One was that he had no interest in artworks, and the other was that he was reluctant to give up so much money, so Jing Jian and Qin Zi became spectators, which became purely an experience. When a pair of enamel vases appeared, Qin Zi shook Jing Jian's arm excitedly: "Look, look, the Baroness has appreciated me, and there is a pair in their family?"
"Oh?" When I heard that the price was only 80,000 US dollars, and each time I asked for a price of 2,000, the price was not very expensive. Since Qin Zi liked it, I would shoot it once. I was too lazy to listen to Qin Zi's nagging. As soon as the shooting started, Jing Jian immediately raised his sign, "100,000!"
"Uh? Xiao Jian?" Qin Zi was stunned when he heard Jing Jian bidding, and then he saw Jing Jian smile at him.
"100,000,020!", "100,0040,000!", "100,008,000!", "1100,000!"...
Unexpectedly, there were still many people competing for Jing Jian’s bidding. Soon, the bidding was almost approaching 120,000.
"Xiao Jian!" Qin Zi shouted softly again, shaking Jing Jian's arm, as if she was persuading her, but her eyes were already tender.
"140,000!" Jing Jian once again skipped 20,000, and put on a stance of being determined to win.
The auction hall suddenly became quiet. How valuable are such enamel vases? Not necessarily. For example, there are Baron Jung, and there are several other families with a long history. Therefore, for most people, it is not very cost-effective to buy them at a high price.
However, when the auctioneer shouted, "140,000 per time!" Immediately, someone heard someone jumping and shouting, "150,000!"
Jing Jian frowned slightly. This had reached his psychological price. Although it was to please Qin Zi, he could not waste money. After a little hesitation, Jing Jian jumped and shouted again: "170,000!"
"180,000!" The other party was a middle-aged man, and this time he did not hesitate at all.
Jing Jianke gave up without any delay. Even if he fought for wealth, there was no need to smile apologetically at Qin Zi on an occasion like this: "Haha, I've met a rich man."
"It's okay." Qin Zi held Jing Jian's hand and smiled comfortingly.
And this time no one bids, and I heard the auctioneer: "180,000 once, 180,000 twice..., 180,000..." Jing Jian lowered his head, waiting for the final say, suddenly, someone shouted: "182,000!"
“Huh?”
Jing Jian remained silent and secretly swept the corners of his eyes to the direction of the middle-aged man and the other person who was shouting for the price. He found that both of them were looking straight and expressionless. After thinking about it, Jing Jian waited patiently. This time the middle-aged man did not even shout for the price. He heard the auctioneer: "182,000 once, 182,000 twice, 180,000..." Seeing that the auction hammer in the auctioneer was about to fall, Jing Jian suddenly shouted: "184,000!"
“…”
One minute later, the hammer sounded, and Jing Jian successfully bought the pair of enamel vases for 184,000 yuan...
...
"Xiao Jian, can you please? This is too expensive." Although he refused, his body was very honest. Qin Zi was already weak and completely pressed against Jing Jian's body.
"Haha." Although it cost tens of thousands of dollars more, it is still worth it to win the smile of a beauty. "You have to buy something you like for the first time in an auction, which is considered a good success. Don't worry, your man is responsible." As he spoke, the corners of Jing Jian's mouth were slightly curled up. This auction is right, it's interesting!
The auctions followed were calm. The Japanese young man also took action once. However, the artwork he bought seemed very popular. After several rounds of bidding, he was still auctioned by the Japanese young man at a high price of three times the reserve price.
The auction continues, this time it is a complete set of high-end tableware.
“…The minimum price is 300,000, the minimum bid starts at $10,000, and the auction starts now…”
After several rounds of bidding, it gradually exceeded 350,000. Jing Jian hugged Qin Zi and kept joking, as if he was careless about the item. However, suddenly, he suddenly raised his license plate: "500,000!" and jumped to a high price.
The audience was sensational, and even the auctioneer was briefly shocked. Qin Zi was stunned: "Xiao Jian, you...?"
"Oh?" Jing Jian smiled and kissed Qin Zi's pretty face, with a close gesture, and said in Chinese, "Beauty, just shout, let me enjoy it, right? Don't worry, if there are idiots, you will get a higher price."
Behind Jing Jian, a female waiter was staring at Jing Jian nervously, and found that he and Qin Zi seemed to be flirting with each other and were intimate. So she breathed a sigh of relief and immediately made a hidden gesture to another corner.
