Chapter 47 Auction
After being shocked by the first item, the appraiser couldn't wait to open the second box, and it did not disappoint him, it was colored porcelain.

A few years ago, due to the incident of the Tao family in Linqi City, everyone knew that porcelain was very precious, and it was impossible for porcelain of various colors to appear, otherwise the Tao family would not have died in the end.

Some time ago, I heard that Ya Su from Qingyan Pavilion got a two-color colored porcelain. He wanted to see it for a long time, but he failed to take a look at it twice. Caici almost made him faint from excitement.

The treasure appraiser got up and watched the treasures on the table, walked back and forth, sat down to study, and then got up to walk around, not knowing what he was thinking.

"What price do you think these two pieces should be sold for?" Su Tang asked unhurriedly. She had already expected the reaction of the appraiser.

"Where did you get these two treasures?" The treasure appraiser looked at Su Tang with a different look now. He could take out such treasures, but two of them at once. How could it be an ordinary person who dressed so plainly? It must be to hide his identity, after all, bandits here are rampant.

"As for where it came from, I have no comment." Su Tang shook her head, she would not be so stupid as to tell them that there are still many more.

However, judging from the fineness of these two pieces, even if the glass and colored porcelain are sold, the price of these two pieces will not be affected much. After all, these two pieces are the works of Ya Su's heart, and those who know how to do it will naturally understand.

Only then did the appraiser realize that he was talking too much, "The starting price is 2000 taels of silver, and the final price depends on tomorrow's auction. Our auction house charges [-]% of the final auction price. What do you think?"

"Deal." This is a little lower than the low price Su Tang imagined. If it were placed in the capital, the low price would be at least 2 taels, but in this kind of border area, this is not bad, and the wealth of the people is naturally high. It can't be compared with the capital, the cost of this thing is not high, no matter what, it is profitable.

After going through various formalities, the appraiser sent several people out respectfully, then turned around and took two treasures into a luxurious room deep in the third floor. Inside, a man in white was shaking a folding fan, against the light from the window. , I can't see the face clearly.

The appraiser respectfully handed over the treasure, "Please take a look at these two treasures."

The man stroked the hilt of his sword with his slender and powerful hand, and said in a soft and elegant voice, "I never thought that such a treasure would appear in such a borderland, and it will be auctioned as usual tomorrow."

After hearing this, the appraiser stepped back respectfully.

Yingyue didn't speak cautiously until she couldn't see the door of the auction house, "If you leave the things inside like this, will they steal it for you?"

"No, they should have seen a lot of all kinds of treasures in the auction house, and they definitely won't do anything to smash the signboard." Su Tang laughed.

Although those two things are rare, judging from the financial resources of Tiansheng Commercial Bank, it is impossible to do such a thing.

Several people found an inn to rest, and the auction started at noon the next day.

When Su Tang and the others went to the Tianxing Auction House, the scene inside was completely different from yesterday's deserted one. At this time, it was full of people.

The man who received them yesterday took them directly to the private room on the second floor. After all, it is a bit of a privilege to auction such a valuable thing.

The items auctioned earlier were not very attractive to Su Tang, they were mostly cherished calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and precious jade, which were far from the ones she saw in the palace.

Eating snacks, dozing off, and finally waiting for the finale of her two treasures.

"The next one will be a rare treasure," the host explained diligently, trying to maximize the value of the treasure.

When the treasure was brought onto the stage, Su Tang clearly heard the sound of gasping on the first floor.

"Cai Porcelain, this is Ya Su's research on Cai Porcelain day and night. Could it be that she made it?"

"I don't know, but judging from the current situation, it seems that colored porcelain, which is commonly known as unfireable, can be made."

"If it's really made by Ya Su, then there will be another good show."

"If it was made by other aristocratic families, it would have been sold by itself with drums and gongs. How could it be auctioned here? It is probably made by a small family. If you want to talk about the achievements in this, I am more willing to believe that it was made by Ya Su. of."

The people who were active near Linqi City were very clear about what happened back then, even if they guessed, they could guess a little bit. When the Tao family was flourishing, it was impossible for them to be a coincidence.

From the moment the colored porcelain tea set was brought onto the stage, Su Tang clearly heard the sound of teacups being broken in other private rooms on the second floor.

As the only auction house in Linqi City, famous people will come to join in the fun, including those who are in the ceramic business. If they feel guilty and panic now, then they will panic in the future, Su Tang thought coldly.

In the end, this colored porcelain tea set was auctioned off by someone in a private room for 8000 taels of silver.

"The next auction is a treasure among treasures. I have no words to describe its brilliance. Let's see for yourself." The host lifted the black cloth covering the glazed sword, and the bright light instantly spread across the entire body of the sword. shine.

"According to the appraisal of our appraiser, there is no flaw in it, and there is no joint gap, which means that this one-meter-long gorgeous sword is a whole, and its value is self-evident. The starting price is 2000 taels of silver. "

As soon as the host finished speaking, the people in the private room immediately shouted the price regardless of the reaction of the people on the first floor.

"3000 taels."

"Three thousand five."

"Five thousand." An arrogant voice sounded.

The people on the first floor can only look at it now, they can't fight for money, and now it's a fight between gods, they'd better keep their mouths shut, and it's not a bad thing to try to see such a treasure a few more times.

"Six thousand."

"Eight thousand." The man spoke again.

The more Yingyue listened, the more wrong she got, she leaned close to Su Tang and said, "This man's accent is from the capital, how could he appear here?"

"I don't care about them, as long as they don't come to trouble us." Su Tang also heard that something was wrong.

"Ten thousand." Someone hesitated for a moment, then continued to increase the price.

"Fifteen thousand"

As long as someone shouts, this man will raise the price crazily, as if my money is blown by a strong wind, and he is bound to get it.

If they continue to shout, it will be beyond their ability. No matter how beautiful this sword is, it is not worthwhile to spend more than 1 taels of silver to buy one and look at it at home.

Seeing that no one raised the price, Su Tang finally settled the deal at a price of 5000 taels.

The two pieces were auctioned for a total of 3000 taels of silver. After deducting the 400% of the auction house's fee, it was [-] taels.

Su Tang went to the third floor to get the bank note, and being careful, he took Yingyue and Wu Chong away and drove back to Yanyang City.
