Chapter 306 Winning Bid
This instruction booklet is printed in full color, and the color is extremely bright. This ancient sword has been processed, and some copper rust has been removed, revealing the true face inside.
Because the corrosion is too severe, this ancient sword is not complete. The reason why it can enter this auction item and line up behind is that it is because the sword has a dragon pattern on its body, which belongs to the monarch's sword in China, so it is so precious.
And this sword has a history of at least thousands of years, and its historical value is also extremely precious. There are also rumors that this sword is the sword of the first emperor of China, so its mysterious surname has been added. In addition, this sword was unearthed from South America. Together, the value of this sword rose vigorously, and it suddenly rose to Nantianmen like the Monkey King.
Auction is to hype. As long as there is hype, it can be sold at a good price. Even if the auction item is fake, experts say it is true, and then it becomes true. As for whether it is valuable or not, it is another matter. Anyway, more than half of the auctions here don't understand anything at all. Just buy what you want.
Ye Yang's eyes were tightly locked on the bead, and the red bead had always given him an extremely mysterious feeling.
It is auctioned in the eleventh position. In this position, there must be a lot of people competing. But most of this collection is taken by Chinese people who want to take pictures and then return them to the country to gain a good reputation. It has earned both fame and the pockets of the Chinese people.
Seeing that Ye Yang had been staring at the rusty bronze sword, Catherine couldn't help complaining, "What's so beautiful about this broken thing? The gem in front of it is very beautiful. Let's take a picture of it later."
Ye Yang knew that she was talking about the fifth auction item, a very famous diamond, tears of the sun. This diamond legend is a gem set on the crown of the sun god Apollo, representing heat and glory.
"Little woman" Ye Yang said lightly.
Catherine curled her lips and said, "Little women like this, or you don't like little women."
Ye Yang sniffed, picked up another brochure, and looked at other auction items.
Most of the other auction items are cultural relics or calligraphy and paintings, among which a painting by the Spanish painter Picasso is the most valuable. It ranks 12th, even behind the sword.
Ye Yang turned to the last page, that is, the last auction item, which is the highlight of this auction.
When Ye Yang looked at the last auction item, his heart was suddenly full of strangeness. This is a thing about the size of a human head. The reason why it is so hopeful is that it comes from outer space. But no one can make it clear what this is. Some people say it is an alien memory computer, while others say it is an alien's spacecraft energy body. In short, there are different opinions.
This thing can block the detection of various rays, so it adds a trace of mystery to its mystery. All mysterious things can most arouse people's interest, and after the publicity of the auction company, it adds exciting elements to this auction item, so it has become a high-profile auction item.
Others don't know this thing, but Ye Yang knows it very well. He had seen it in the absolute space at the beginning. This thing was actually a thing like a fresh-keeping container, and there was no secret at all. But for the people on earth, it is also an alien thing.
He looked at this thing and couldn't help laughing. Catherine looked at Ye Yang and giggled. She couldn't help frowning and said, "In such an advanced place, you have to be reserved."
Ye Yang shrugged his shoulders. At this time, the people were almost there, about 100 people. In addition, there were 150 people in the VIP room behind. These 150 people represent almost the top 100 richest people and groups in the world.
At eight o'clock sharp, the host came forward and announced that the auction would start now.
This host is definitely a top auctioneer. He can grasp people's psychological situation through people's eyes. When there is no one bidding, he does not hesitate to drop the hammer. If he finds that a bidder still has the idea of a price increase, he will repeat it over and over again to seduce the bidder. This can often maximize the benefits of this auction item.
Catherine was really not a joke. When the tears of the sun were auctioned, she had been holding Ye Yang's hand to ask him to raise the price. In the end, the tears of the sun were auctioned down by them for 12 million US dollars.
12 million US dollars is not a small price. They have won everyone's sidelights. Especially those ladies, they can't wait to eat Ye Yang.
The service staff gave Ye Yang the sign of the No. 5 auction. With this sign, Ye Yang was able to go to the background to pay and pick up the goods after the auction was over.
The service of the auction house is very thoughtful. If you buy something, they will keep it for you. If something is taken away during storage, they will give you 1% of the auction price as a loss fee. But you must pay the money within two hours after the end of the auction, and then pick it up, otherwise as soon as the time passes, it will be regarded as a live auction.
At the same time, the auction house also provides security services, but you need to pay an additional security fee, which is about tens of thousands of dollars.
As the tears of the sun were auctioned off, the rest of the auction items also began to show a white-hot competition. Ye Yang was idle anyway, and he simply patted it. Naturally, he didn't want to pat him, but to help raise the price, which was appropriate every time.
In this way, it finally arrived at the auction of the eleventh collection, that is, the ancient sword.
As usual, the host introduced the origin of this sword, which is more or less exaggerated. But I have to admire the host's eloquence. He told the origin of the sword into a mythical story, which immediately aroused people's interest.
At this time, the host announced the start of the auction. The starting price is 2 million US dollars, and each price increase is not less than 1 million US dollars.
In less than three minutes, the price of the sword has risen to 10 million US dollars. Ye Yang is not in a hurry. Since this sword can be signed on the 11th, its value will never be lower than the tears of the sun in the 5th position. At 10 million dollars, the competition has just begun.
As Ye Yang expected, when 10 million US dollars ended, someone immediately added 5 million US dollars. Ye Yang frowned and looked at this man. He was a Chinese.
The host shouted 15 million dollars, and is there anything higher? After he dropped the hammer for the second time, Ye Yang snorted softly and said lightly, "20 million dollars."
The Chinese man looked at Ye Yang in surprise. When he saw that Ye Yang was also a Chinese, he nodded with a smile. Ye Yang also nodded to him slightly.
Even so, the man still raised his voice and shouted, "Five-five million dollars."
Ye Yang smiled faintly and said directly, "50 million dollars."
After hearing Ye Yang's offer, the man was stunned at first, and then squinted at Ye Yang, but he stopped bidding.
Even the host was stunned, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face. For 50 million US dollars, the auction house can withdraw at least 5 million US dollars in commission, and as the host of this auction, he can also get at least 500,000 US dollars in commission.
"50 million dollars, is there anything else, the first time, the second time, the third time" Before his voice fell, he heard someone bid again.
"60 million US dollars, the guest of No. 3 box bids 60 million US dollars" The host's face was already happy.
Hearing this offer, Ye Yang couldn't help frowning and looking at Box 3.
The people present also looked at the No. 3 box. They were not interested in this ancient sword. They thought they could reach 10 million, but they didn't expect Ye Yang to come 50 million, which had made them smack their tongues, but they didn't expect to kill a Cheng Yaojin halfway and pay 60 million yuan.
"Well, 70 million," Ye Yang said lightly.
Suddenly, everyone smacked their tongues again. Some people thought that it was Ye Yang fighting with those people, but they didn't know that Ye Yang really wanted to get the ancient sword.
After a period of silence in the "80 million" box, a price was quoted.
When the price was quoted, the people in the box were obviously hesitant. It seems that this is about to reach their bottom line.
Ye Yang continued to say lightly, "Ninety million."
There was a complete silence in the box, and after a while, "ninety-one million" was reported in the box. It seems that they don't dare to take action as big as they did just now.
Ye Yang sneered and said lightly, "One million dollars."
After he reported the number, the person in the No. 3 room was completely silent. After waiting for a while, the host also made a final say, "The auction item on the 11th was sold for 100 million US dollars."
Ye Yang looked at the nameplate of No. 11 sent by the service staff, and a smile slowly appeared at the corners of his mouth. This ancient sword finally belonged to him.
