The wrench is a close-fitting accessory that is placed on the right thumb of the archer to protect the fingers from being pinched by the bowstring.

In China's thousands of years of history, Emperor Qianlong's enthusiasm for jade finger rings was the highest among all Chinese emperors.

It is no exaggeration to say that this set of jadeite and Khotan jade finger rings made by the Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty can be said to be the biggest contributor to today's packed-out event for this ancient Chinese jade auction.

As the auctioneer finished speaking, even the starting price of HK$5000 million could not stop the enthusiasm of many wealthy people present.

"5100 million!"

"5500 million!"

"5700 million!"

"6000 million!"

……

In the blink of an eye, the price of this set of jadeite and Khotan jade finger rings made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty exceeded the 6000 million Hong Kong dollar mark. Each price increase started at one million Hong Kong dollars. There was a fanatical atmosphere permeating the scene.

Faced with such a precious imperial palace art, many VVIP guests of the Sotheby's auction house who were sitting in the core area with Tang Yuan and others could not resist the temptation and began to raise their placards and join the bidding.

At this moment, Wen Muxue, who was sitting next to Tang Yuan, looked at such a hot bidding scene, her red mouth slightly opened, her eyes full of shock, and every price that jumped was troubling her nerves.

At the same time, she saw all the changes in Tang Yuan's expression after seeing this set of jadeite and Khotan jade finger rings made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty.

"Could it be..."

Just when a certain guess emerged in Wen Muxue's mind, Tang Yuan's next move confirmed her guess was correct. Tang Yuan, who had been silent for more than two hours, made a move for the first time.

"7000 million!"

Tang Yuan raised the bidding number in his hand, with a sharp look in his eyes, and signaled loudly to the auctioneer in front.

"Guest No. 556, bid 7000 million Hong Kong dollars!"

When the auctioneer heard this, his eyes lit up immediately and he repeated Tang Yuan's quotation.

The price, which had just reached HK$6500 million, was directly increased to HK$7000 million at one time, a one-time increase of HK$500 million. Coupled with Tang Yuan's extremely young face, it immediately attracted the surprised eyes of many people around him.

"No. 556? Such a familiar number!"

"What kind of memory do you have? No. 556 is the young girl who was shopping for world-famous wines last time. Now it seems that this young man is the real owner!"

"I dare to quote 7000 million Hong Kong dollars. It seems that people are shopping for goods at the venue just for fun, and they don't use the more than 1000 million as money at all!"

"Does anyone know him? He shouldn't be from our port city. I know all the kids from the big families in our port city!"

"You can tell by the accent that he's not. He's probably a descendant of a big family in the mainland. The water in the mainland is deep!"

……

Many guests who were present at the last auction immediately started whispering when they saw No. 556 reappearing. Many VVIP customers sitting in the core area also turned to Tang Yuan or were curious. , or looking at, or looking at.

7000 million Hong Kong dollars, this is another big mark, which makes many guests who intend to compete feel a little powerless. Although they are full of regrets, they have insufficient funds and cannot continue to compete, so they can only choose to give up.

"7050 million!"

"7100 million!"

"7130 million!"...

Soon, the price of 7000 million Hong Kong dollars was broken again. The guests who still have the strength to continue bidding are basically VVIP guests located in the core area, and the overall bidding speed has also slowed down.

Seeing that the bidding was about to reach a stalemate, Tang Yuan had no intention of taking it slow with everyone. He once again raised the bidding number in his hand and said loudly: "8000 million Hong Kong dollars!"

"Wow..."

As Tang Yuan's voice fell, the scene suddenly went into an uproar.

A price increase of nearly [-] million Hong Kong dollars!

In an instant, Tang Yuan became the focus of the audience.

According to the evaluation of professionals, the valuation of this set of jadeite and Khotan jade rings made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty should be between HK$5000 million and HK$8000 million. Now Tang Yuan's move has directly capped the valuation.

Facing the attention of everyone in the audience, Tang Yuan looked calm.

Valuation?
What it is?
When others bid, in addition to subjective factors, they also need to consider the collection value, value-added space, personal capital chain pressure, etc. However, in Tang Yuan's case, the above factors are not at all within his scope of consideration.

According to Tang Yuan's analysis and speculation, for treasure-level collection tasks, even if novice benefits are not considered, the basic reward amount will not be less than [-] million, not to mention that in addition to cash rewards, the system will also give many surreal rewards.

It is no exaggeration to say that no matter how high the final transaction price is, Tang Yuan will never lose money, and it will be a huge profit.

What's more, Tang Yuan really likes this set of jadeite and Khotan jade finger rings made by the Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. After all, Tang Yuan comes from Blue Star China where traditional culture is prevalent. He has a natural affinity for these objects that are full of historical and cultural heritage. love.

"Guest No. 556, bid 8000 million Hong Kong dollars!"

"The jadeite and Khotan jade finger ring made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty can be called an imperial treasure of the Qing Dynasty. It is a set of seven pieces and is well preserved. It is rare in the world. If you miss it, you may never see it again!"

The auctioneer on the auction stage became even more excited after hearing Tang Yuan's quotation. He spoke quickly and continued to incite the guests who were interested in bidding with his full emotion.

An increase of nearly [-] million Hong Kong dollars has brought the price of the collection to a new level again.

This time, even many VVIP guests in the core area found it difficult to continue following, with a look of regret on their faces.

"8100 million!"

After the scene was boiling for tens of seconds, an old man located in front of Tang Yuan on the right, after repeated hesitation, raised the bidding number in his hand again.

"8500 million!"

Tang Yuan did not hesitate at all and added another 400 million Hong Kong dollars.

When the old man saw this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh, then shook his head and put down the bidding number in his hand, obviously unable to continue following.

When Tang Yuan saw the old man showing such an expression, he turned to look at a middle-aged man in the rear left, with a slightly inquiring look in his eyes and a calm expression, without any provocation at all.

"8800 million Hong Kong dollars!"

"This is my bottom line. If you can pay a higher price than this, this set of jadeite and Khotan jade ring rings made by Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty will be yours."

The middle-aged man also looked at Tang Yuan. He first quoted a price loudly, then raised the champagne glass in his hand and said this to Tang Yuan.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuan nodded slightly to the other party, then turned his head and raised the bidding number in his hand again without any hesitation.

"9000 million Hong Kong dollars!"
