Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

The starting price is still three thousand.

Lin Ran did not bid, but looked to the side.

This time, Liu Ye did not bid. It seemed that he was afraid that raising prices frequently would make others remember him, so he chose silence this time.

And the person who replaced him was Xiao Huangmao from before.

Lin Ran was even more certain that the auction was just a show, and the price was deliberately raised to let rich people buy it back.

However, Lin Ran felt very strange.

People can make money, except for those who win the lottery and are fools. Don't they know that it will take at least ten years for this antique to rise to today's auction price?

Unless everyone is like him and knows that the economy will develop rapidly in a few years, otherwise, no matter how you look at it, this thing is in your own hands.

If you really like it, it would be fun to buy it back for a big price and collect it.

But no matter how you look at it, these people don't look like collectors.

He couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart, but they didn't bid, but kept watching.

The atmosphere of the auction was particularly good. With a group of dragnets trying to drive up prices, high prices followed frequently. Businessmen bought several lots at high prices, making the atmosphere even more lively.

Song He had actually been watching silently from behind, but Lin Ran didn't even buy a thing.

But he is not worried, because they will definitely buy it next.

After ten items were auctioned in a row, the atmosphere of the auction became extremely harmonious.

All eyes were focused on the auction items.

He didn't notice that the leaders who were sitting in the first row were leaving one after another.

Chen Qi was already bidding crazy. In his opinion, spending 1 yuan to buy these cultural relics was absolutely worth it.

Because he can donate cultural relics to the British Museum in exchange for knighthood.

He didn't care how much money he spent when he came here, as long as he bought something the British Museum liked. Therefore, eight out of ten cultural relics fell into his hands.

Although Lin Ran didn't know why he spent money so generously, when he thought about it, as a tycoon of Hong Kong City Financial Group, tens of thousands of dollars might really not be taken seriously.

It's the same in every era.

As long as he is not deceived, their table is the quietest in the bustling auction site.

After the last auction item, a Northern Dynasty bronze pot, was sold to Chen Qi for [-] yuan, the auction gradually came to an end.

Liu Ye was also paying attention to Lin Ran. This country bumpkin was too stingy and didn't even bid once. Fortunately, Song He invited him to the auction, saying he wanted to make money.

However, except for Lin Ran, there were only more than 20 auction items among the [-] people present, and most of them were empty-handed.

The host smiled and announced the end of the first phase of the auction. Before the second phase began, Song He, the son of the chairman of Qiansong Group and the initiator of this auction, was invited to come to the stage to speak.

Due to the good atmosphere just now, Song He received warm applause as soon as he came on stage.

Lin Ran also pretended to clap along, wanting to see what kind of medicine he was selling in Hu Luli?

Seeing that the atmosphere was about the same, Song He waved his hands to signal that everyone should stop applauding.

He picked up the microphone and said: "Thank you very much for participating in Qiansong Group's auction today. I believe everyone is curious, where is the enamel color we mentioned earlier?"

He deliberately put it off, and the people in the venue were indeed a little strange.

Song He smiled mysteriously and said: "As a collectible, the price of enamel is actually not as high as that of bronze. We can use another method to make the price of enamel exceed that of bronze, and we can also make a lot of money through it."

His words obviously stimulated the hearts of the businessmen present.

Most people don't come here to collect antiques, but because they can appreciate in value and make a fortune by reselling them.

When the price exceeded 1 yuan, they hesitated, because with today's income level, he knew very well that there were only a handful of people who could spend [-] yuan to buy cultural toys and collectibles.

Song He continued: "Our Qiansong Group has launched a business to buy back enamel."

He then clapped his hands, and two staff members came to the auction site pushing a large cart of porcelain.

When the red cloth on it was lifted, a pile of gleaming porcelain caught everyone's attention.

Even people who don't know how to appreciate it can still see the exquisiteness of this porcelain.

Everyone was finally relieved, and Lin Ran was staring at the pile of porcelain.

In Chinese ceramic culture, pottery and porcelain are separated.

The main difference between them is still reflected in the density of sintering of the row matrix and the glaze color.

Fired at high temperature, the carcass is dense and the glaze is of excellent quality, so it is called porcelain.

The relatively thick ones are pottery.

Therefore, the price of porcelain has always been more expensive than that of pottery.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, there were five famous kilns, namely Jun, Ru, Guan, Ding and Ge.

Then there were the three major porcelain culture centers of Jingdezhen, Dehua and Longquan during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

In Lin Ran's time, there were only [-] Qing palace enamels recognized worldwide.

Most of them are hidden in the Ning Hall at the east end of the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City in the capital. There is also a roster that details the name and quantity of this batch of enamels.

This batch of enamels is obviously collected by the Palace Museum. It is still being restored and compared and has not been exhibited externally.

The enamel-colored porcelain behind him is of various categories, with more than 100 pieces in total.

Of course Lin Ran felt something was wrong. He glanced at Zheng Xueming and Jiang Hua.

Through their eyes, it was confirmed that they had participated in the appraisal work and it turned out to be the real thing!

Lin Ran took a breath of air. With so many enamels, could it be that they were pulled out of another unknown palace, or were they found by the fleeing courtiers who hid themselves when the late Qing Dynasty was overthrown?

Otherwise, the origin of so many enamel colors is really suspicious.

Song He obviously noticed everyone's concerns and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this being a fake. Three masters from Beijing have personally identified it. If it is a fake, our Qiansong Group will compensate you 10 times."

With his promise, the collectors finally felt relieved.

However, Song He had not started the auction yet, but continued to say with a smile: "Moreover, our Qiansong Group has launched a business to recycle enamel colors at high prices!"

"For example..." He took out a pink bowl, raised it, and said to everyone: "This is the enamel consecrated flower bowl collected by Kangxi. You can sign an agreement with me. Ten years later, I will use the auction price Ten times the price, recycle it!”

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience fell silent.

This is equivalent to buying it and waiting for it, and you will definitely not suffer any loss.

And if the value continues to appreciate in the future, even if you can't find a buyer, you can still sell it back to Song He.

As long as the contract is signed, the other party cannot deny it even if they want to.
