Tomb Raider: I, at the beginning, took Fatty Lao Hu as my younger brother

"Eight hundred and fifty million!"

The bidding for Box 39 and Box not only impressed the bidders below, but also angered Master Morgan in Box !

"One billion!"

The beautiful auctioneer waited for three seconds, but she didn't hear the gambling king and Li Jiacheng continue to bid, so she shouted decisively: "Our guest in room 39 bid billion, is there anyone who can bid higher?"

"Once in a billion!"

"Twice a billion!"

"Three times a billion!"

"boom!"

"make a deal!"

"Congratulations to Master David Bitero Morgan in Box 39 for bidding 213 billion for two rare emeralds!"

As soon as the auctioneer said this, the audience immediately started talking.

"So Box 39 belongs to the young master of the Morgan family. I was wondering who is so rich. He must have spent to billion tonight!"

"Yeah, really rich, he spent my entire fortune in one night!"

"Which family is the Morgan family from? Why haven't I heard of it?" A round-faced, wealthy coal boss asked a middle-aged man in a suit and tie next to him in a puzzled accent.

As soon as the middle-aged man heard the other party's accent, he immediately understood the other party's industry and identity. Although the coal boss was a nouveau riche type of person, the middle-aged man did not look down on the other party.

After all, in this era, money is king!

He then explained in detail: "The Morgan family is a large family abroad, very rich, with assets of at least hundreds of billions or even more!"

"Oh my god, so awesome!" The coal boss was also stunned. He thought the other party was rich, but he never thought he was so rich!

at this time!

The gambling king and Li Jiacheng in the box on the second floor frowned. If they had known the other party's identity, they would never have given up so easily.

What a shame!

In the supreme box!

The fat man was also surprised and said, "Wow, this young master is really rich!"

"Old Zhou, how is it? Did you achieve the effect you wanted?" Old Hu asked with a smile when he saw Zhou Xun making 10 billion in the blink of an eye.

"Not bad. Although this gem is precious, this is the highest price it can be sold for in this era!"

"My brothers haven't left tonight, and everyone will have a share of this gem. I'll treat everyone to a big meal and good wine!" It's been a month since we last got together, so we might as well get together tonight!

"Dongfang, let the family arrange a dinner now!"

"Okay, Mr. Zhou!" Dongfang quickly took out his cell phone and started to make arrangements.

..........

"Dear friends, we have finally reached the most important and exciting moment of this auction. Now, we will present the three treasures of the last round of this auction!"

"First, let's welcome our first and finale treasure!"

"Tang copy of "The Admonitions of Court Instructresses""

"As we all know, the "Nu Shi Zhen Tu" is the earliest Chinese silk painting in existence today. It is one of the earliest works of professional Chinese painters that can still be seen. It is a milestone in the history of Chinese art and has always been a treasure collected by the courts of successive dynasties."

(dacj) "There are only two copies left in the world. One was copied by a Song Dynasty artist and is collected by the Kyoto Palace Museum. The brushwork and color are not of the highest quality."

"The other one is the one we have today. It was originally kept in the Qing Palace and was a favorite on Emperor Qianlong's desk. It was hidden in the Old Summer Palace. In 1860, when the British and French allied forces invaded, British Captain Keyon stole it from the Old Summer Palace and took it abroad. In 1903, it was collected by the British Museum and became the most important oriental cultural relic in the museum. It is no exaggeration to call it the 'treasure of the museum.'"

"Later, the treasure was stolen and now it has come to our Tang and Song Auction House. After being identified by our Tang and Song Auction House, it was confirmed that the treasure is a national treasure that was once lost abroad."

“First of all, let us warmly welcome the return of our national treasure with great excitement!”

(This is a true story, but the treasure is still in the British Museum. Unfortunately, the author is not Zhou Xun, there is nothing we can do about it!)

“Pah pah pah pah pah pah pah pah pah pah….”

At this moment, all the Chinese people in the Tang and Song Auction House clapped their hands excitedly.

Although many people present did not know the significance of this treasure, they understood the word "national treasure"!

In China, what can be called a national treasure, which one does not contain countless national culture and heritage significance!!!

"The starting price is 100 million, and each bid increase must not be less than 5 million!"

"Bidding starts now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many Chinese people raised their signs.

"One hundred million!"

"One hundred and fifty million!"

"One hundred and ten million!"

..........

Second floor!

In the supreme box!

When Zhou Xun saw that it was this treasure, he stood up excitedly!

“Hahahahahahahaha, good, good, Rose did a good job. Although I knew there would be something good this time, I didn’t expect it to be this treasure!”

"I, Zhou Xun, have decided to bid for this treasure, hahahahahahahahahahaha!"

At the same time, there were many people on the second floor who had the same ambitions as Zhou Xun, the most enthusiastic among them were the gambling king and Li Jiacheng!

But everyone’s thoughts are simple. The national treasure has finally returned, and they don’t want to hand it over to anyone else casually!

If I were to be stranded again, it would be very troublesome to come back!

"One billion!"

When the bidding was still at 150 million, Zhou Xun directly raised the price to 1 billion.

The price has increased tenfold, and this is the first time that anyone has seen this at an auction.

Chapter 14: billion high-priced auction item

In box 39, David Bitello Morgan sighed deeply as he looked at the ancient paintings below. Unfortunately, he was not qualified to bid!

As soon as the ten billion price was announced, even the excited gambling king and Li Jiacheng calmed down!

The beautiful auctioneer knew that the person in the Supreme Box No. 1 was her boss, so she immediately quickened her pace!

"The guest in Box 1 offered 1 billion~!"

"Once in a billion!"

"Twice a billion!"

"Three times a billion!"

"Boom!"

"make a deal!"

"Congratulations to our guest in Box 1 for successfully bidding on the Tang copy of the national treasure, the Zhen Tu (pronounced zhen) of the Nüshi (literally "Nu Shi Zhen")!"

Just when everyone was still in shock, the beautiful auctioneer auctioned the national treasure directly to Zhou Xun.

Second floor!

The gambling king in boxes 2 and 3, Li Jiacheng, also sighed.

Although they missed out on the national treasure, they were not sad because they knew that the owner of the auction house, Mr. Zhou, had bought the national treasure! !

Who doesn’t know about the three treasures under Kyoto Zhou Ye: Tang and Song Antique City, Tang and Song Auction House, and Qin and Han Museum!

Such a national treasure is perfect for Zhou Xun, who owns the Qin and Han Museum!

The supreme box on the second floor!

Zhou Xun heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the treasure in his pocket and slowly sat down: "This auctioneer is good, Rose, remember to give her a bonus of one million after the auction!"

"Okay, I've got that!" Rose knew that this auctioneer happened to get Zhou Xun's favor this time, and he was going to be rich in this life!

At least, in the Tang and Song Auction House, he will definitely be a senior executive in the future!

..........

"Next, let us welcome the second highlight of tonight's auction, the portrait study of Freud!"

"This painting is a triptych that Francis Bacon painted for his friend and rival Lucian Freud. It is considered one of Bacon's greatest works!"

"In the painting, Freud is sitting on a wooden chair with an orange background. Through the artistic expression of this painting, it directly creates an artistic dialogue between the two famous painting masters!"

"As we all know, Bacon only painted two paintings of Freud, this is one of them, the other one disappeared in 1966!"

"The starting price for this painting is 100 million RMB, and each bid increase must not be less than 5 million!"

"Bidding starts now!"

After the beautiful auctioneer finished speaking, there might still be many Chinese people present who were confused.

But the Westerners present were all excited and couldn't wait to join the bidding!

"One hundred million!"

"One hundred and fifty million!"

"One hundred and ten million!"

"You are insulting the master's work. I offer 200 million!"

A foreign collector was furious when he saw these people raising the price by five million. He was a die-hard fan of both Bacon and Freud, so how could he tolerate the masters' works being insulted like this!

What's more, he came here just for this painting!

"Two hundred and fifty million!"

"Two hundred and eighty million!"

"Three hundred million!"

"Three hundred and fifty million!"

..........

"Eight hundred million!"

"Eight hundred and thirty million!"

"Eight hundred and sixty million!"

"Eight hundred and ninety million!"

"One billion, I'll pay one billion!"

Seeing the price rising continuously, the foreign collector began to panic. He had come all the way for this painting and he did not want to return empty-handed, so he simply raised the price by 110 million in an attempt to scare away these hungry wolves.

When the billion-dollar price was announced, the Westerners at the scene became confused.

To be honest, one billion is the bottom price in the minds of most people present. Although they all like this famous painting, it does not mean that they are willing to affect their careers for this painting!

Just when the collector felt that it was settled and was happy, despair also came over him.

"One billion!"

The person who called out the price was naturally Mr. Morgan in Box No. 39.

On the second floor, in the box.

Young Master Morgan sipped his red wine leisurely, looking down with disdain in his eyes: "Oh, poor bastards like you want this famous painting? You are just dreaming!"

"But this Tang Song Auction House is really amazing. They even have famous paintings like this. It's amazing. I have to pay more attention to their auction information in the future!"

At this time, the middle-aged man standing next to the young man bent down and said, "Master, the boss of this shop is known as Master Zhou of Kyoto, and his influence here is very strong."

"And this person owns a museum, which is the Qin and Han Museum that was rumored to have donated the Imperial Seal some time ago."

"This Qin and Han Dynasty Museum is also amazing. There are countless treasures in it, including Picasso, Da Vinci, Monet, treasures from Western countries, and even Napoleon's saber. The number of treasures is more than 10,000!"

After hearing the assistant's introduction, Master Morgan also remembered that the news about the imperial seal some time ago swept the whole world.
