Chapter 159 Buddha’s relics, spiritual fruit auction
A blonde woman in a white dress walked onto the stage holding a tray in her hands.
Vogt said with a smile: "This item is the "Manuscript of Cuthbert's Collected Poems," which records the collection of poems by the ancient poet Cuthbert. It is very commemorative. The base price of this item is $50,000. Let's start. Bid! ”
"Fifty-five thousand dollars!"
"Sixty thousand dollars!"
“Seventy thousand dollars!’
For a time, the price kept rising.
This first item is indeed very memorable.
Perhaps in a few decades, its price will triple.
Many people were holding up signs and shouting prices.
It seemed very lively.
Jiang Hua just glanced at it and lost any interest.
This kind of thing is completely useless to him.
This round alone.
It took about more than two hours.
"The second item follows."
"This item is a Buddhist relic. It is a precious relic left by Zen Master Huijing 1,500 years ago."
"Everyone, please look at what this relic looks like."
I saw Vogt lifting the cloth on the booth.
The relic inside was revealed.
What shocked everyone was that this relic turned out to be very round and emitted a faint golden light.
In Buddhism, relics are the result of a lifetime of practice by eminent monks.
Only the relics left behind by eminent monks after they passed away can be called real relics.
Vogt said: "This relic has a base price of one million US dollars."
"The bidding begins now."
Everyone was silent for a moment, hesitating.
This relic exudes a faint golden light.
This is so amazing.
Do you want to bid?
"One million and two hundred thousand dollars!"
"One and a half million dollars!
"Two million dollars!"
And on the other side.
After Jiang Hua saw the relic, a look of interest appeared on his face.
There was a hint of gold in his eyes.
Goldeneye!
"Relics of Zen Master Huijing: Buddhist treasures left behind by Zen Master Huijing 1,500 years ago. It contains the fruits of Zen Master Huijing's lifelong practice. It has huge power of pure soul. Absorbing it can quickly improve Soul cultivation! ”
Hearing these words, Jiang Hua's eyes sparkled!
You must get this relic.
The way of soul cultivation is more difficult than the martial arts cultivation.
If Jiang Hua wanted to break through to the fourth level of the Divine Soul, it would be impossible to break through in a short time without a little adventure.
But this relic can help him quickly improve his soul cultivation.
As long as you get this relic.
He was sure that before heading to the Bronze Sacred Tree, his cultivation level would reach the fourth level of the Divine Soul.
"Three million and two million US dollars!"
At this time, the price on the scene has reached more than three million US dollars.
Jiang Hua also raised his own sign.
"Four million dollars!"
After hearing this number, everyone was silent for a moment.
The price has reached their limit.
The most important thing is that the collection value of this relic is much worse than that of the florin coin.
"Four.1 million dollars!"
Jiang Hua raised his eyebrows, "Four and a half million!"
"Four and a half million!"
After reaching this number, many people are already shaking their heads.
This is the relic of Zen Master Huijing.
Although it is indeed valuable, it is not worth that much.
In the end, the relic was captured by Jiang Hua.
The auction continues.
"Now we have our third auction item."
"This is an oil painting called "Silver Car Accident."
When hearing this name, most people think.
Some people were moved.
""Silver Car Crash"?"
"Andy, Warhol?"
"This painting is quite valuable and has great collection value!"
Vogt said with a smile: "This oil painting depicts a scene where the injured body crawled out of the wreckage after a car crashed."
"Warhol showed death on one side of the canvas and the world after death on the other side. It can be said to be a famous painting with great artistic value!"
"The reserve price of this "Silver Car Accident" is $3 million."
"The auction officially begins now!"
"Four million dollars!"
“$4.5 million!”
“$5 million!”
As soon as Vogt finished speaking, everyone's enthusiastic voices immediately shouted out.
The price of this "Silver Car Accident" was quickly raised to over 10 million US dollars.
But for these famous paintings with IQ tax.
Jiang Hua looked carefully at the oil paintings on the booth.
With all due respect...I don't understand...
Jiang Hua withdrew, "These Lighthouse people know how to tell stories and sell their feelings. How come I don't see any art at all?"
Shirley Yang covered her mouth and laughed, "This is oil painting art, of course you don't understand..."
……
Soon, the auction was coming to an end.
Vogt took a sip of water and continued; "Next is our last auction item, a Liangzhu animal-faced jade cong from the Han Dynasty, an ancient oriental country!"
"The base price of this Liangzhu jade cong with animal face pattern is two million."
"The auction begins now!"
A jade cong was placed on the booth. It was jade-colored and had a pattern of an animal face engraved on it, giving it a special sense of beauty.
Jiang Hua glanced at the booth out of habit.
Golden Eye!
"Liangzhu Jade Cong with Animal Face Patterns: A treasure from the Western Han Dynasty, it was a burial object of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and has considerable value. Moreover, the tomb of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is located on the dragon's veins. This jade cong contains a trace of the essence of dragon energy."
< br>
Dragon spirit?
Jiang Hua became somewhat interested.
“$2.5 million!”
"3 million!"
"4 million!"
"5 million!"
Jiang Hua: "..." Uh!
Forget it!
Isn’t it just a treasure that contains dragon energy?
Such a high price is really not worth it!
Jiang Hua shook his head.
I gave up the bidding immediately.
If it were around 5 million, that would be a good thing, but now it looks like it will start at at least 8 million.
In the end, this jade cong with Liangzhu animal face pattern was successfully auctioned for US$9.2 million.
A smile appeared on Vogt's face.
Today's auction was extremely successful!
Not even a very valuable relic.
They were all raised to more than 20 million.
Vogt feels that this is all his own credit. If he had not come up to preside over the auction in person, it is not certain whether he would have achieved such a high price!
"Okay, today's high-end item auction ends here!"
"Tomorrow we will have the grand finale auction!"
"Everyone, please stay tuned..."
The next day.
There is a lot of traffic in front of Sotheby's auction house.
There are all kinds of luxury cars everywhere.
Ordinary people can't afford one even if they work hard all their lives.
Many major forces in the Lighthouse Country rushed over overnight.
The expressions of the four major families became serious.
They are bound to get that spiritual fruit!
Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang came to the auction arm in arm.
"Mr. Jiang, Miss Yang, please come inside!"
There was already someone waiting at the door.
"Mr. Jiang, do you still need to undergo asset certification? Your current sales quota is US$500 million. If you want to obtain a higher quota, you can only conduct asset certification again."
The waiter asked with a smile on his face.
"No need!"
Jiang Hua shook his head.
When he comes to the auction, he makes a temporary decision on what he wants to take pictures of. He will only take pictures of things that are useful to him.
The amount of US$500 million is enough, unless we see something like the Imperial Order again.
"Okay, you two, please."
The waiter's smile did not change, and he bowed to welcome the two people in.
Next to the gate, there are some closed offices where auction clients conduct asset certification, and specialized people will conduct the certification.
Today is the grand finale item auction.
There have been far fewer people coming for asset certification.
After all, many people simply cannot afford the final item.
They just come here to watch the excitement.
Only the top powers are still nervously conducting asset certification. This asset certification work requires proof of assets, such as bank fund certificates, land assets, company shares, etc.
It will then be confirmed by someone from Sotheby's auction house.
The auction house will provide corresponding quota.
Jiang Hua glanced at it, and then went to the seats with Shirley Yang. He shook his head and glanced.
I noticed that there seemed to be more people sitting in front of the booth.
And many of them are unfamiliar faces.
It seems that these people came here specifically to participate in the spiritual fruit auction.
As for the four major families and other top powers, the four masters are already sitting in their seats.
They looked serious, waiting for the auction to begin.
Today is not good news for them, because more and more big forces are coming from all over the world.
Soon, Vogt walked onto the booth.
He coughed and then said loudly: "Everyone is welcome to join me
Our Sotheby's auction will hold the most interesting finale item auction today. ”
“My friends must be a little bit impatient to wait.”
"Then I won't talk nonsense."
"The third part of the live auction!"
“The grand finale item auction officially begins!”
“Now here’s our first finale item!”
There was a smile on Vogt's lips.
A beautiful woman in a white dress held a tray covered with a red cloth and placed the first grand finale item on the stand.
Everyone is paying attention.
"I wonder what this first finale item is?"
"I'm already looking forward to it."
“Hopefully we can get off to a good start.
Vogt smiled.
"This is the first item. I know that many people have come from all over the world to participate in the auction, probably just for it!"
Upon hearing these words, a golden light flashed in the eyes of those powerful personnel.
Could it be that the first final item is the legendary spiritual fruit?
Vogt opened the red cloth, revealing a jade box with some exquisite carvings on it.
This was exactly the spiritual fruit Jiang Hua gave him the day before yesterday.
Jiang Hua couldn't help but be surprised.
Unexpectedly, Sotheby's auction house took out the spiritual fruit as the first final item.
Generally speaking, this should be placed last.
But Jiang Hua figured it out quickly.
If Sotheby's auction house puts the spiritual fruit at the end.
As for the finale item ahead, everyone has to save money to auction the spiritual fruit. Who has the heart to bid?
And put the spiritual fruit on the first finale.
An auction that can make everyone feel at ease.
After the spiritual fruit auction ends.
Those rich people who have not obtained the spiritual fruit still have a lot of cash on them, so they can bid for other finale items without any worries.
I have to say.
Sotheby's auction house is still very good at doing business.
With a smile on his face, Vogt gently opened the jade box.
Everyone looked attentively.
I saw a fruit lying quietly in the jade box.
Many people closed their eyes to feel it, and it took a long time before they opened their eyes.
At this moment, they were finally sure!
This is really a spiritual fruit!
There is a special aura about Lingguo.
Anyone who has felt this kind of aura can recognize it at a glance.
“It’s really a spiritual fruit!”
“We must take it down!”
"This spiritual fruit is very important to us!"
Many people's eyes were shining.
Vogt said with a smile: "As for its origin, I won't introduce it. I believe everyone knows what it is."
"No more nonsense."
“The base price of this grand finale item is 30 million U.S. dollars, and each increase in price must not be less than 1 million U.S. dollars!”
“Now the bidding officially begins!”
After Vogt finished speaking, someone immediately raised a sign.
"40 million!"
"50 million!"
"80 million!"
