Chapter 374: Eye-Catching Auction
$377, eye-catching auction
When Xiao Wang and Qin Feng found the box where Tang Wen was, Lin Xin and Jiang Ping were lying in Tang Wen's arms with flushed faces. Any man could understand that expression.
After giving Tang Wen a look of "you know", the two turned to go to the private room next to them. After all, even a fool knows that Tang Wen might "do something" in a while, and staying here is "asking for trouble".
"You are so bad." The two women in his arms said coquettishly.
Tang Wen smiled, explored the two women's bodies for a while and said, "Oh? Really? How about this?" Soon the room was full of spring.
As time passed slowly, at 9 o'clock most of the guests had already arrived in their own private rooms. Some people who were not qualified to go to the private room found a seat in the hall below and sat down.
What happened next was the real big deal, and these people were reluctant to leave. After all, it was said that tonight was a gathering of "big guys".
Even if we bid on some things donated by the "big guys", maybe we can attract the "attention" of the big guys? So many small families, rich people and artists who want to build relationships did not leave.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this charity auction held by the Magic City Trade Center. All the auction fees tonight will be donated to the Magic City Trade Center. I, Qi Zheng, am the host and auctioneer of this auction. Now, please invite our first auction item tonight to come on stage."
As the auctioneer dropped the hammer, the first auction item was wrapped in red satin and brought up by several slender models.
Tang Wen, who was rubbing his hands in the private room, looked at the things that were brought up and said in surprise: "Is the first item a big thing? It seems that they want to have a good start."
It was similar to what Tang Wen thought. This auction was to arouse everyone's interest. The first item that came up was a "heavyweight" thing.
"The first lot is a pair of full-color glass jade bracelets from the Northern Song Dynasty. The starting price is 30 million, and each bid must not be less than 1 million."
As the red cloth was unveiled, everyone took a breath. Are you kidding me? Bracelets of this quality are rare even in some large auctions.
Not to mention a pair. If this thing was placed in some medium-sized auctions, it would be the finale. I didn't expect it to be a good start here today.
As expected, women have no resistance to jewelry. As soon as the bracelets came out, many noble ladies and celebrities began to get excited.
Even Lin Xin and Jiang Ping in Tang Wen's arms stared at the bracelets. Women are naturally unable to resist these things.
However, this kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can afford. According to Tang Wen's observation, if this pair of bracelets were placed on the market, it would probably cost over 100 million.
Let alone its own value, it is an antique from the Northern Song Dynasty, which is already priceless.
As expected, as soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, many bids were raised. If you listen carefully, most of them are women. No wonder there are many real "ladies and socialites" here today.
"35 million"
"40 million"
"60 million"
"68 million"
"80 million"
"88 million"
In a short moment of distraction, the price of this pair of bracelets has been called up to 90 million. Even Xiao Wang's father, Lao Wang, called out 95 million.
"100 million"
With the voice coming from the box, everyone took a breath. It's only been a few minutes? 100 million has been called out? Tang Wen also raised his eyebrows. It seems that this thing can't be bought without 150 million.
Tang Wen originally wanted to ask who sent this thing to the auction, but thought about it and gave up. After all, this is a "charity" auction, so it's not good to ask others.
After such a moment of distraction, the price has approached 135 million. Seeing Jiang Ping and Lin Xin next to them, they were terrified.
Although they were once "famous all over the world", it was still a bit unrealistic for them to take out more than 100 million in cash. Even for the top artists, it was not easy to take out 100 million in cash.
Such luxury goods are usually taken by big families and some hidden figures, and it is not their turn to intervene.
What Tang Wen did not expect was that Zhao Xin, who was originally angry and left, also came back at this time. I don't know from which box her voice came out "150 million"
The auctioneer's face was very good. The market price of this bracelet is about 130 million. Now someone called 150 million, which is unexpected. If you add the handling fee, this bracelet will cost at least 160 million to take it away.
"150 million once?"
"Twice." The auctioneer stretched out his voice and wanted to continue fishing.
Tang Wen wanted to "suppress" it, but he didn't expect a light male voice to sound in advance.
"Two hundred million"
"What the hell?"
After hearing this offer, there was a commotion below. Even the experienced auctioneer was dumbfounded. This is not 20 million, this is 200 million.
It is no exaggeration to say that this has already raised the price of top-grade jadeite.
Tang Wen smiled slightly when he heard this light-hearted voice. The owner of this voice is really no other than Sun Hao, who was called "Crazy Sun" in Magic City last time.
The Sun family and the Jiang family didn't get along well, so Sun Hao was very happy to make the concubine of the eldest son of the Jiang family "embarrass himself".
"Mr. Tang, why don't you make a move?" Jiang Ping, who was lying in Tang Wen's arms, asked.
"Hehe, this thing is not my cup of tea. It's too low-grade. Besides, I don't lack jadeite." Tang Wen laughed. To be honest, Tang Wen really didn't lack top-quality jadeite. Since he made a fortune from the Indian country last time, Tang Wen still had a lot of "rare" things in his hands.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. When the two women heard what Tang Wen said, their "enthusiasm" became even more intense. Both of them thought that if they could "serve" Tang Wen comfortably, they would definitely not be "disappointed".
"Humph" Zhao Xin heard Sun Hao's voice. Although she wanted to continue to raise the price, she was just a concubine who was honored by her son. The price of 200 million was really not something she could afford.
No matter how favored she was, the eldest son of the Jiang family would not give her 200 million to squander. But Sun Hao on the other side was different. Although he was the second son, he had the right of inheritance.
It was no big deal to take out more than a billion to squander.
"Two hundred million once, twice? Three times, deal." The auctioneer dropped the hammer excitedly. This was the most expensive jade bracelet he had ever sold, which was also very helpful for his qualifications.
"The next item to be auctioned is the Yuan blue and white goose neck porcelain vase, starting price: 60 million, each bid must not be less than 1 million."
The next item to be auctioned is the Yuan blue and white porcelain that many collectors dream of. This is not a fragment, it is a truly intact Yuan blue and white porcelain, and it seems to be the kind used exclusively in the palace.
