"I didn't expect that the Qin and Han Dynasty Museum and this auction house have the same owner. Interesting, very interesting!"

downstairs!

When the collector heard the price of 1.1 billion, he felt terrible.

"The guest in Box 39 has offered billion. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price further?"

"Everyone, this is a famous Western painting handed down from generation to generation. It is rare and the only one in the world. If you miss it, you will never have another chance!"

After waiting for three seconds, the beautiful auctioneer saw that no one continued to bid, so she continued the process.

"One eleven billion at a time!"

"One hundred and one billion twice!"

"eleven.........."

"Two billion!"

Before the beautiful auctioneer finished shouting for the third time, the collector decisively gritted his teeth and increased the price by 100 million.

Yes, he was persuaded!

If you miss this opportunity, there will be no next chance!

Before the collectors were happy.

Young Master Morgan on the second floor started to raise the price again with disdain: "1.4 billion!"

If you add 100 million, I will add 200 million. This is how generous the Morgan family is!

Of course, the second reason is that Master Morgan also saw that this collector really liked this painting. If he continued to wait, the other party would most likely try his best.

Even if it is sold at that time, the price will definitely be more than 1.4 billion.

It would be better to increase the amount by 200 million at a time so that the other party will give up sooner.

Chapter 778 Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword

really!

After hearing the sky-high price of 1.4 billion, the collector sighed deeply and collapsed in his seat. He no longer had the energy to bid!

Although he is worth a lot of money and is a well-known figure in the American business world, tens of billions are not insignificant to him.

It’s 2004 now!

Apart from those conglomerates and families, who dares to say that more than a billion RMB is a small amount of money!

Of course, what hit the collector the most was that he couldn't buy this famous painting even with over one billion dollars, and his competitor was the young master of the Morgan family.

This kind of despair of retreating in the face of difficulties is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

The beautiful auctioneer looked around and saw that no one was interested in continuing the bidding, so she picked up the hammer and shouted, "Two, one, seven." "Master Morgan in Box 39 bid 14 billion. Is there anyone who can offer a higher price?"

"1.4 billion once!"

"1.4 billion twice!"

"1.4 billion three times!"

"boom!"

"make a deal!"

"Congratulations to David Bitello Morgan in Box 39 for successfully bidding for our second masterpiece with a price of billion!"

Second floor!

Box No. 39!

The middle-aged man standing beside him bent over and flattered him: "Congratulations, young master. Congratulations, young master, on successfully bidding for this famous painting!"

"Hahahahahahahahahaha, great, I didn't expect that the harvest this time is so great. My father will definitely be very happy when I go back this time, hahahahaha!"

David Bitello Morgan drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, feeling very happy.

..........

In the No. 1 supreme box!

The fat man was eating fruit while curiously asking, "Is this painting so good? I don't see where it's beautiful. These people are really being taken advantage of!"

Old Hu said with a chubby face: "This is called a work of art. It would be strange if a big and strong person like you could understand it!"

As soon as this was said, the fat man was immediately dissatisfied and defended himself: "What do you mean by big and strong? I also graduated from high school, okay?"

"Fatty, big and strong describes your sturdy build, and has nothing to do with whether you graduated from high school or not!" Yingzi's words were like a knife, piercing straight into the fat man's fragile little heart!

“Hahahahahahaha….”

Seeing the fat man's funny appearance, everyone laughed.

"Master Zhou, since this painting is so popular in the West, why don't you take a picture of it and put it in the Qin and Han Museum?"

Zhang Yingchen doesn't think that Zhou Xun didn't shoot the film because he was reluctant to spend tens of billions.

Others may not know, but brothers, how could they not know? Zhou Xun is not short of cash!

Moreover, Zhou Xunke has always taught them not to keep too much cash in their hands, but to either invest it or buy some antiques for collection.

"Well... First of all, Tang Song Auction House really needs a finale item to make it famous, and it's not possible for me, the boss, to buy everything."

"Secondly, just like Fatty, I really can't appreciate these foreign works."

"It's enough to have some in museums. I really don't have much interest in collecting these famous foreign paintings!"

"Well, generally speaking it's because I don't like it!"

Zhou Xun said it very bluntly, one is one, two is two!

Zhou Xun really couldn't appreciate these foreign paintings. In his eyes, the most beautiful ones were still Chinese landscape paintings!

Magnificent, grand, majestic and imposing!

"Look, Master Zhou doesn't like it either!" The fat man winked at Lao Hu arrogantly, as if to say, little brother, you didn't expect that in the end you are the one who falls behind!

"Look at how smug he is!" Old Hu pointed at the fat man unhappily.

"Ha ha ha ha ha!"

Everyone just smiled at the quarrel between the two and did not get involved. They just acted as their own light bulbs!

..........

under!

Auction table!

"Now, let us welcome the last treasure of our Tang Song Auction House auction, the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword!"

"Yes, it is the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword that has been lost for many years!"

"The Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword, also known as the Dragon Spring Sword, originated during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, more than 0 years ago. It is a famous sword in ancient China and is also known as the sword of integrity and nobility... "

"This sword was forged by two great swordsmiths from ancient China, Ou Yezi and Gan Jiang."

"According to legend, in order to forge this sword, Ou Yezi and Gan Jiang dug open Mount Cishan, released the stream from the mountain, and led it to the sword-forging furnace to form seven pools in the shape of the Big Dipper, hence the name 'Seven Stars'."

"After the sword was completed, looking down at the sword body was like climbing a mountain and looking down into the abyss, ethereal and deep as if there was a giant dragon lying there, so it was named "Longyuan". Therefore, this sword was named "Seven-Star Longyuan", or "Longyuan Sword" for short.

"During the Tang Dynasty, in order to avoid the taboo of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan, the word "Yuan" was changed to "Quan", and the sword was named "Qixing Longquan", or "Longquan Sword" for short."

"This sword is one of the ten most famous swords in Chinese history!!!"

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

"Start bidding now!"

..........

"what?"

"We also have the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword at this auction?"

"Has the appraiser confirmed that this is indeed the sword that disappeared in history???"

Zhou Xun looked at Rose in surprise and asked three questions in a row 2.9!

Looking at the excited Zhou Xun, Meigui nodded and said, "It is indeed the long-lost Longquan sword, and it has been appraised by all the appraisers of our Tang and Song Auction House, and it is confirmed to be correct!"

"Master Zhou, this is the surprise I told you about last time. Didn't you see the auction list from our auction house?"

"I thought you knew!"

Zhou Xun:.............

How could he know what the auction house was selling? You know, he had forgotten everything about the auction house during the month he was away!

"Haha, I really didn't read the auction list, but since you have identified it, I still believe the result!"

"I never thought that I would encounter another of the ten famous swords. Hahahaha, it's fate, it's destiny!"

Chapter 779: Zhou Xun strikes again

Zhou Xun was very excited, and he was not lying. He still had great trust in the appraisers of the Tang and Song Auction House.

After all, these people were personally trained by him, Da Jin Ya and Han Shuona.

There is no need to mention Zhou Xun, Da Jin Ya is the most eagle-eyed person of this generation, and Han Shu Na is also not bad, with an extremely high level of identification skills.

(Han Shu Na is Uncle Ming’s wife, who appeared earlier. Later, Zhou Xun arranged her to go to the Future Orphanage to teach identification knowledge!)

It can be said that the three of them are among the most skilled in identification. If there really were a competition, the three of them would definitely be ranked among the top ten masters.

As for the appraisers of Tang and Song Auction House, except for a small number of experts who were recruited from outside, all the others were trained from orphanages.

As for the level of these people?

It can be said that the appraisal agency of Tang and Song Auction House has become an authoritative appraisal agency in today's antique industry!

In some aspects, 30 is even more official than the official one!!!

..........

During the whole scene, Zhou Xun was not the only one who was very excited.

All the Chinese people became excited.

Many of them were wealthy and secretly determined to bid for one of the ten most famous swords in China.

"One hundred million"

..........

"One hundred and fifty million!"

..........

"Twenty million!"
