My life has subtitles

Chapter 184 Auction ()
  "Good evening, dear guests!"

On the auction stage, the auctioneer, who was very formally and appropriately dressed, introduced the basic information of the [late Qing Dynasty yellow satin cassock] with very precise and professional words.

"Lot No. 1 is a piece of yellow satin cassock that flowed from the Yuhua Pavilion of the Qing Palace Buddhist Hall to the private sector."

"Two meters long and one point thirty-eight meters wide."

"The starting price is 8, the increase is in thousands, and the bidding ladder is 258."

"Start bidding now."

"Is there any bidder?"

concise.

fast.

precise.

No nonsense.

Go straight to the topic.

When this [Yellow Satin Kasaya from the Late Qing Dynasty] was on display, almost no one paid any attention except Yang Chen and Mu Qingzhi who spent a long time looking at it.

Yang Chen only knew its actual value after being prompted by the system.

Mu Qingzhi, on the other hand, relied on a woman's inexplicable intuition and sixth sense, with some so-called mysterious induction and connection.

Eventually of course.

Mu Qingzhi covered her nose and left.

I didn't see why.

So in the eyes of most people, this is just a piece of rag.

A piece of rag worn by a monk.

Although it comes from the Buddhist hall of the Qing Dynasty, if it was worn by a member of the royal family, it may still have some value - for example, if it was worn by Cixi, then the value will naturally be different.

But this is just an unknown tattered cassock.

It has little collection value.

Therefore, when the auctioneer asked if anyone at the scene would respond to the bid, no one raised a placard, and no one was interested in the rag.

No one even discusses it.

now.

Tangshan, who was sitting in the front row, was also curious.

Why would Yang Chen be interested in this piece of rag?

prior to.

During the preview period, when Yang Chen brought him over to pay the deposit, he made a point of taking a look.

Just the same dirty rags as most people, what’s the value?
  before coming.

Yang Chen repeatedly told him that he must take pictures of this [late Qing Dynasty yellow satin cassock].

If it is not convenient for him to hold up the sign, then he has to do it himself.

just now.

No one raised a sign at the scene.

Tangshan turned back to look at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen nodded.

Tangshan then raised the number plate.

Tangshan’s number plate is No. 1038.

see.

The auctioneer raised the microphone and responded immediately: "Okay, No. 1038, 8, is there any increase in price?"

"[Yellow satin cassock in the late Qing Dynasty]"

"8!"

"Are there any price increases on site?"

The auctioneer never stopped talking.

Repeatedly.

Encourage.

After shouting for a while, the guests at the scene all seemed to be hurrying to finish and move on to the next lot. No one increased the price, and no one showed the slightest interest.

"Ok."

"According to the rules, if there is only one bidder, Lot 1 will not be auctioned."

"8 once."

"8 twice."

"8..."

Seeing that lot No. 1 was about to pass the auction, Yang Chen did not raise his placard, but was about to raise his hand to signal. At this time, in the telephone consignment area on the side of the auction table, a staff member who was responsible for telephone consignment bidding raised his placard.

This means that buyers who bid over the phone have increased their bids.

There are four types of bidding.

In addition to live bidding.

There are also telephone bidding, paper bidding, and online bidding.

As long as the relevant process agreement is completed, you can bid with the buyers on site.

just now.

It was a buyer who bid over the phone who raised the price.

The number plate the staff gave me was 1088, and I didn’t know which bidder’s number plate it belonged to.

"Ok."

"No. 1088, 8."

"Who wants to increase the price?"

the auctioneer asked repeatedly.

Yang Chen saw this and frowned deeply.

what's the situation?
  At that time, the system clearly stated that no bidder had any intention to bid for this rag.

What is going on now?

Who is bidding on the phone?
  Did he also see the secret of this rag? Not urgent.

Go and see.

Maybe it was the seller of [Yellow Satin Kasaya] who did something wrong.

Maybe it was the auction house's own trick.

If the system says it doesn't exist, then it definitely doesn't exist.

"No. 1038, 8."

At this time.

Tangshan raised his sign again.

"No. 1088, 9 million."

immediately.

The buyers on the phone bidding side also followed suit.

soon.

After some bidding.

The auction price exceeded the consignor's reserve price and reached the 10 mark.

Tangshan continued to raise his cards.

And the buyers on the phone bidding side had no intention of stopping.

Always follow quickly.

This made Yang Chen murmur in his heart.

It has already exceeded the reserve price. If the seller is bidding over the phone, enough is enough.

After all, only Tangshan was interested in this piece of rag.

If he keeps raising the price like this and Tangshan gives up, then it will be all in vain!

Ok.

Maybe he was testing Tangshan's bottom line.

The bidding continues.

"No. 1038, 15."

"No. 1088, 17 million."

"No. 1038, 29 million."

"No. 1088, 36 million."

"No. 1038, 88 million."

"No. 1088, 100 million!"

"..."

As the auctioneer kept reporting prices, the [Yellow Satin Kasaya from the Late Qing Dynasty], which almost no one was interested in beforehand, suddenly reached 100 million under the bidding of Tangshan and the mysterious telephone bidder. 's mark.

One million may be nothing to the guests at the venue.

After all, the deposit required to participate in this auction is 100 million.

but.

The starting price for a piece is only 8.

The reserve price is only 10 rags, and the bidding price of 100 million has obviously exceeded its actual value.

At least in the eyes of the guests at the scene, that was the case.

Could it be that I lost my sight?
  Or is it just another kind of publicity and hype?

Immediately.

The guests who had not shown the slightest interest in this rag before were now a little more interested.

Someone started a discussion.

There are also people who are eager to give it a try and are hesitant to get involved.

At this time, Tangshan really hesitated.

100 million!

Although before coming here, Yang Chen repeatedly told him that he must take pictures of this [late Qing Dynasty yellow satin cassock].

but.

The starting price of the rag was 8 yuan and the reserve price was 10 yuan. The buyer who bid on the phone raised the price to 100 million yuan. It was really too damn outrageous.

Tangshan took it for granted that someone must be up to something here.

There is no pie in the sky.

The ground is full of fucking traps!

and so.

Tangshan hesitated.

He felt that this rag was not worth a million at all.

He felt that it was necessary to help Yang Chen stop his losses.

So he turned back and took a deep look at Yang Chen, and did not continue to raise the sign.

"No. 1088, 100 million once."

"No. 1088, one million twice."

"number 1088……"

Seeing that the auctioneer was about to beat him down, but Tangshan had no intention of raising his placard, Yang Chen felt anxious in his heart.

Very meow!
  Didn't I tell you, just raise your sign and leave the rest to me.

What the hell?
  Don't tell me you care about money.

I'll pay for it!

I don't care at all, you care about nothing!
  no way.

Just when the auctioneer was about to slap the deal, Yang Chen could only raise his hand.

This raises his hand.

The whole place was in an uproar.
