Chapter 353 Special Auction, Digging a Hole, Two Billion
"Sorry, I'll take a call first."
"Please."
Coming to the side, Li Le answered the phone.
"Hey! Li Hao, why are you calling me at this time?"
Li Hao did not answer him, but opened his mouth and asked: "Li Le, do you have time tonight?"
"what?"
"Accompany me to an auction."
Li Le rubbed his forehead, wondering why Li Hao always liked to participate in these boring activities.
It's either stone gambling or auction, nothing else.
Because Li Le knew that serious auction houses would not conduct auctions at night.
Generally, auctions held in the evening are held by individuals or some companies themselves.
"I said Li Hao, can't you do something normal?" Li Le asked speechlessly.
"Stop talking nonsense, just tell me whether you want to go with me or not."
Li Le smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Isn't it okay if I go?"
"Hehehe, I knew you would definitely accompany me." Li Hao said excitedly.
"Okay, I have something to do now. Just tell me the time and place later. I'll go there when I'm done."
"Yeah! Just get busy, I'll send it to your mobile phone."
"good!"
By the time Li Le came over after making the call, Mr. Qi had already taken ten yuan from the most valuable pile.
"Boss Li, I want ten yuan, each at a price of six hundred thousand, what do you think?" Mr. Qi asked.
"What does this mean? Of course it's no problem!" Li Le said nonchalantly.
Although he knows that if he sells it to others, the price may be higher, but don't forget that they have been busy here for almost a day.
In addition to the meal, he didn't even ask for tea fees. The money from the less sales was treated as tea fees.
"Thank you, Boss Li."
"You're welcome."
As for the payment, Li Le doesn't have to worry about it because shopkeeper Hu is here.
After Mr. Qi followed Shopkeeper Hu to issue the invoice and pay, Li Le looked at the dozen piles of Yuan Datou and became worried again.
He kept these useless things, but it was not easy to sell them. He had to find people who liked them.
Anyway, Li Le didn't know such a person.
At this time, shopkeeper Hu came back.
"Mr. Qi is gone?" Li Le asked.
"Yes, boss. After issuing the ticket, Mr. Qi paid the money and left with the ten yuan coins."
That's how antique buying and selling is, no matter how much or how little the money is, you have to issue an invoice.
It is used to prove the provenance of antiques. Of course, it is not required for private transactions.
But how many of them are traded privately? Because private transactions are collections, they are not intended to be sold at all.
"Okay, let's go. By the way, I'll leave these to you and put them on the counter! If anyone wants them, I'll sell them." Li Le pointed at Yuan Datou on the coffee table and said.
"Okay boss."
Li Le's antique shop sells all real things, and there are not many of them.
Because the quantity was small, there was nothing on the counter.
Now it's fine, I can just put these Yuan Datou into the counter.
Anyone who comes to buy antiques can see it when issuing an invoice and paying.
Li Le even thought about taking out some gadgets and putting them on the counter for sale.
You must know that Li Le has a lot of gadgets, and they are all good things.
Yes, those are jade and jade products, and many of them are ancient jade.
Keep some of the good ones, and sell some of the more common ones.
Looks like I need to take some time to sort it out.
It has been left there since it was brought back, and Li Le didn't even notice it.
"Ding dong!"
The phone rang, and Li Le quickly took it out to take a look.
It was a message from Li Hao. The time was seven o'clock in the evening and the location was the Triumph Hotel.
There is only one Triumph Hotel in the entire imperial capital, so the location is unmistakable.
Sure enough, it was exactly what Li Le thought, it was this kind of private auction again.
Since it was seven o'clock, Li Le had no intention of going home. He had no choice. Since Nie Weiwei's store opened, Nie Weiwei rarely went back before six-thirty.
In this case, Li Le wouldn't be able to eat when he went back, because there wouldn't be enough time for Nie Weiwei to go back to cook.
At half past five, Li Le left the store, had something to eat outside, and then drove to the Triumph Hotel.
Li Le came at a pinch, but he still came early because it was just half past six when he arrived.
Today's auction requires an invitation letter, but Li Le does not have such a thing.
So he could only park the car and wait at the gate.
Yes, he has already called Li Hao. Li Hao will arrive soon, so he is waiting here.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Li? Why, I can't get in!" At this moment, an annoying voice sounded.
Li Le turned his head and took a look and said, "I asked why there were crows crows when I went out today. It turns out that they knew I was going to encounter a dog!"
"you……"
"What are you? Why, your legs are healed? You can jump again, right?"
Yes, this person is Hu Jin, a reclusive young master of a family with a similar status to Li Hao.
Last time I led someone to block Li Le and wanted to deal with him, but I didn't expect that he was dealt with instead and his legs were broken.
More than three months have passed in the blink of an eye, and my leg has probably recovered a long time ago, but I didn’t expect to encounter it again here today.
"Hmph! You're so awesome, why don't you go in? It's because there's no invitation, right?" Hu Jin knew that he couldn't take advantage of him, so he could only change the subject.
Li Le curled his lips and said, "Don't you know that I'm waiting for someone?"
"Hmph, why are you waiting for someone? I think you just don't have an invitation."
Li Le really doesn’t have this thing, but it doesn’t matter! As long as someone has it.
"You are right, I do not have an invitation letter, but so what, as long as I can get in."
"Security, you heard it! He doesn't have an invitation, hurry up and get him away."
A security guard who seemed to be the leader came over and said to Hu Jin: "Sorry sir, we have no right to expel people."
What is the responsibility of security guards? To ensure the safety of one party, they are now ensuring the safety of one party.
Where is their side? Of course it is the gate. Now they are here to check the invitation.
Anyone with an invitation can go in without being denied entry, but they can't do things like evict people because they don't have the right.
"I think there's something wrong with you! He's just a bumpkin from the countryside. There's no way he could come in here."
The security guard is not a fool. How could he be here without an identity?
Apart from anything else, they all saw Li Le get out of the car just now.
That's Brabus G900! A car costs more than 10 million. How can a person who can drive a car worth more than 10 million be a bumpkin from the countryside?
Besides, whether others are country bumpkins or not has nothing to do with them.
There is no rule that no one is allowed to come here. As long as they don't force their way in, they won't care.
"Sorry sir, this is not our responsibility. We are only responsible for guarding the door. As long as this gentleman does not break in, we have no right to let him leave."
"You...you guys, okay, just wait for me." Hu Jin pointed at the security guard and said.
Seeing that the security guard ignored him, Hu Jin turned to Li Le and said, "A country bumpkin wants to enter the Triumph Hotel."
"Are you provoking me?" Li Le asked with a smile on his face and tilted his head.
"Hey! You are worthy of provoking you."
"Oh! Then what are you doing now?" Li Le asked.
"I……"
Hu Jin originally wanted to say something, but seeing Li Le's appearance, he didn't dare.
Others may not know clearly about Li Le, but he does! Li Le is particularly good at fighting.
If he was beaten by Li Le here, he would be greatly embarrassed.
"I'll give you three numbers and disappear before my eyes, otherwise you will know the consequences." Li Le said.
I didn't want to talk to him just now, but I didn't expect that this guy was a little pushy.
He, Li Le, is not made of clay, and besides, the clay figurine is still very angry!
Li Le does not cause trouble, but he is never afraid of trouble. He was so before, let alone now.
"Tch, three counts, who do you think you are?" Hu Jin curled his lips and said.
He didn't take Li Le's warning to heart at all, because he didn't think Li Le dared to take action here.
"one."
"He's just pretending, he's just a bumpkin from the countryside."
"two."
Hu Jin said provocatively: "Let me count for you! Three."
It's a pity that Li Le ignored him at all and continued to count: "Three."
As soon as he finished counting three, Li Le moved very quickly.
"Crack!"
"Ouch..."
Hu Jin spun around in a circle and let out a scream.
Fortunately, this was in public, so Li Le spared his hand. Although it would hurt, it wouldn't cause much harm.
Otherwise, with just one slap, Li Le could knock out half of his teeth.
"You...you dare to hit me?"
Li Le curled his lips and said, "I've been beaten for a long time. Isn't it a little late for you to say this now?"
"Security, didn't you see he hit someone? Arrest him quickly."
Li Le walked over and punched Hu Jin directly in the stomach.
This time, Hu Jin couldn't shout anymore.
"I said you are still a three-year-old child? If you are beaten, call your parents. Besides, the security guard is not your father."
After speaking, Li Le patted Hu Jin's face with his hand.
The security guard was standing at the gate, as if he didn't see it.
There is no way, as the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer, and they don't want to cause trouble.
"Next time, remember better and don't provoke me again, otherwise I won't beat you twice."
As for whether Hu Jin would think that he would call the police, Li Le was not worried at all, so what if he called the police?
There was no injury, so why not just give him a slap and a punch!
Moreover, it is the local provocation first, and it is the same kind again and again.
Besides, Hu Jin wouldn't call the police because he couldn't afford to lose this person.
When people like them conflict, it can be said that whoever calls the police loses.
It's equivalent to admitting that I can't fight you and can only let the police deal with you.
This is very embarrassing, something that even the second generation would not do, let alone the eldest son of a reclusive family like him.
Otherwise, if Li Le had broken his legs last time, nothing would have happened.
"Hey, is it so lively?"
Hearing this sound, Li Le smiled, because this sound was made by Li Hao.
Li Hao did not see Li Le beating Hu Jin, but he knew that the two people must have had a conflict.
"You guy, you are always so late, can't you leave early?" Li Le said without looking back.
"Sorry, something has delayed me."
"Okay, let's go in!" Li Le shook his head helplessly and said.
"Okay." Li Hao turned his head and glanced at Hu Jin, smiled and took out the invitation letter.
The security guard took it and took a look at it, then returned the invitation letter to Li Hao and let the two people in.
Hu Jin's teeth almost broke when he saw the two people entering, but there was nothing he could do.
Anyway, this was a big shame, and it was even seen by Li Hao.
In a large banquet hall on the third floor of the Triumph Hotel.
This is today's home court. There is a table on the stage and a lot of sofas underneath.
Li Le took a quick look and saw that there were at least two hundred of them.
And this sofa is not an ordinary sofa. It can also be seen from here that this auction is extraordinary.
When the two people came over, most of the sofas were already occupied.
There are no rules about who sits where.
Li Hao and Li Le found a place next to each other where no one was sitting, so they sat down directly.
"Today's standards are very high, aren't they?"
Li Hao looked around and then said: "Yes, they are quite tall. It can be said that they are all respectable people."
"oh!"
Li Le also looked around, but unfortunately he didn't recognize anyone. He only knew a few people! And few people he knew were qualified to come.
Let’s put it this way! If it weren't for Li Hao, he wouldn't be able to get in.
It was said to be seven o'clock, but it was not started until half past seven.
In fact, what Li Le didn't know was that seven o'clock was the entry time, not the start time.
But you can't blame him, because Li Hao didn't tell him clearly, otherwise he would never have come so early.
At around 7:50, a beautiful young woman wearing a cheongsam walked onto the stage.
Holding a microphone in his hand, he said: "Welcome to Triumph's annual private auction. I will host today's auction."
"Private auction? What do you mean?" Li Le asked.
Li Hao said in a low voice: "Today's auction items are all provided by individuals. Of course, some are provided by companies, but they are all good things, otherwise they would not be eligible for auction at all."
"That's it!" Li Le nodded.
I seem to understand, but I don’t seem to understand, but one thing is that today’s auction items are all good things.
"Here's the first lot, please."
After the auctioneer, the beautiful young woman, finished speaking, a girl wearing a cheongsam came to the stage carrying a tray, put the things away, and stood next to it.
As for the auction items, they were covered with a piece of red cloth, and I didn’t know what they were.
"Today's first auction item is a sapphire necklace provided by Caibai Jewelry."
After the auctioneer finished speaking, the girl in cheongsam lifted up the red cloth.
A beautiful sapphire necklace appears in front of everyone.
This sapphire necklace is made of white gold and is inlaid with dozens of sapphires.
From bottom to top, they were of different sizes. Anyway, they looked very beautiful. To be honest, Li Le was moved.
"This sapphire necklace uses a total of thirty-three top-quality sapphires, and the starting price is 50 million."
"Damn, no, the starting price is only 50 million." Li Hao muttered beside him.
"What, are you interested?" Li Le asked.
"Nonsense, who is not interested? It's just that the price is too high." Li Hao said with a wry smile.
Seeing him like this, Li Le knew that this guy really wanted to take a picture. Needless to say, he planned to give it to Ruan Jing.
Li Le thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter whether the starting price is high or low. Anyway, no matter how low the starting price is, it will eventually exceed 50 million. This will stop some people."
Hearing what Li Le said, Li Hao thought about it and said, "Yes, this necklace is at least over 100 million."
"Fifty million."
"Fifty-five million."
"Sixty million."
"Seventy million."
"Seventy-two million."
"Seventy-five million."
"Seventy-five million, is there anything higher than seventy-five million?"
At this time, Li Le raised the sign and shouted: "One hundred million."
"Uh! Li Le, what are you doing?" Li Hao asked.
"What's wrong?" Li Le turned around and asked.
"Are you also interested in this necklace?" Li Hao asked.
"It's boring!" Li Le shook his head.
After knowing that Li Hao wanted this necklace, Li Le stopped taking pictures.
"It's boring, why are you raising the price? And you're even shouting 100 million."
You must know that others are adding 5 million and 2 million, but Li Le directly added 25 million.
"I shouted for you."
"ah!"
Li Le knew very well that this necklace was worth more than 100 million. Instead of doing this, it was better to raise the price directly.
In this case, it will dissuade some people from wanting to bid.
"Once in a hundred million."
"Is anyone else raising the price?"
After Li Le called out the price of 100 million, there was a pause for a few seconds, and no one called out the price again.
"One hundred and ten million."
Hearing the quotation, Li Le looked over and saw that it was indeed Hu Jin.
Li Le turned to look at Li Hao and asked, "How much do you plan to pay for this necklace?"
"What do you mean?" Li Hao asked.
"Let's put it this way! How much do you think this necklace is worth?"
Li Hao thought for a while and said, "One hundred and fifty million!"
"Okay, I get it."
At this moment, the auctioneer shouted: "One hundred and ten million times, is there anything higher?"
"One hundred and twenty million." Li Le shouted. "One hundred and thirty million." Hu Jin shouted.
"One hundred and fifty million." Li Le raised the sign again.
"I didn't expect it! Now it has become a world dominated by young people." said a big boss sitting in front.
"Yes! It seems we are getting old."
Another big boss next to him turned his head and glanced back. When he saw it was Li Le, he smiled and said, "If it's him, then we are really old."
"Oh! Do you know this young man?"
Yes, one of these big guys is Mr. Lang.
Li Le also said that he didn’t know anyone! It's just that he didn't see it.
Also, he and Li Hao were sitting a bit far back, and they couldn't see the people in front of them at all.
"I know him, a very capable young man." Mr. Lang nodded and said.
"It's definitely not easy to be called a capable young man by you, Lao Lang."
These big guys have known each other for most of their lives, and it can be said that they understand each other very well.
Thinking of the antiques in Li Le's home, the total value is at least over 100 billion. Li Le probably bought them from auctions.
Mr. Lang said: "Let's put it this way! As long as he is willing, he will probably take away all the good things tonight."
What Mr. Lang didn't know was that the antiques in Li Le's family were not the ones he saw.
What he saw was only a very small part.
This can’t be blamed on Mr. Lang, because when Mr. Lang came to his house, he only displayed more than a hundred items.
And now Li Le has more than 2,000 antiques that have reached national treasure and treasure levels.
As for the treasures and high-quality products, there are currently more than 4,000 pieces. However, these treasures and high-quality products are not valued by Li Le, and they are all ready to be sold.
"Hiss! Lao Lang, according to you, this is no longer about strength, but special strength!"
"Hahaha, of course. Let me tell you, he has now opened an antique store. All the antiques sold in the store are real, and there are many rare and good things."
In Mr. Lang's eyes, the antiques that Li Le sells are rare treasures.
But he was right to say that. Li Le looked down on rare antiques, but in the eyes of many people, they were definitely treasures.
Just one piece costs tens of millions or hundreds of millions. Isn’t it considered a rare treasure?
"Awesome, no wonder you said that." A big boss nodded and said.
"One hundred and fifty million times."
"Is there anything higher than 150 million?"
"Twice a hundred and fifty million."
"One hundred and fifty million times, deal." The auctioneer lowered the hammer.
"You will pay later." Li Le said to Li Hao.
"Okay." Li Hao had a smile on his face.
He thought he couldn't get 150 million! Unexpectedly, it was taken down easily.
This can only mean that Li Le is lucky and no one will compete with him.
Originally, there were a few big guys in front who were also interested, but Mr. Lang's words made them give up the idea.
As for Hu Jin, he also wants to continue bidding, but he is afraid that Li Le will trick him.
Now as soon as the hammer fell, he regretted it again. He regretted not continuing to bid, but it was already too late.
Let’s put it this way! Li Le paid 150 million to get this necklace, which was definitely a big advantage.
Because if this necklace is auctioned normally, it will cost at least 200 million yuan.
I have to say that sometimes luck is also a kind of strength.
"Please give me the second lot below."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, a girl in cheongsam came out pushing a cart with something on it.
But because it was covered with red cloth, no one knew what it was, but one thing was that this item was not small and probably not light, otherwise it would not have been pushed up on a cart.
"The auction item below is provided by a private collector. It is a rough jade stone from Laokeng. According to the collector, he has collected this rough stone for more than 30 years."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, the girl in cheongsam lifted up the red cloth.
A rough stone as big as a bucket of water appeared in front of everyone.
The first time he saw this stone, Li Le's heart was touched, and he didn't know what was going on.
"The starting price for this rough stone is one million, and each increase in price must not be less than one hundred thousand."
"One million and one hundred thousand."
"One million and two hundred thousand."
"One million and three hundred thousand."
At this time, Li Le raised the sign and shouted: "Two million."
"Uh! Li Le, what are you..." Li Hao asked confusedly from the side.
He knew that Li Le was not interested in gambling on stones, nor did he like gambling on stones.
"I don't know, I just want to buy this rough stone." Li Le said with a wry smile and shrugged.
"Uh! Okay then! As long as you like it." What else could Li Hao say.
In fact, Li Le was also doing an experiment. He got two pieces of good jade at Pangu Hotel last time.
Many people say that Li Le is lucky, but only he knows that is not the case.
Because when Li Le saw the two rough stones, his heart was touched, so he bought them.
This time the touch appeared again, so Li Le raised the price.
"Three million."
Li Le frowned when he heard this voice, because the owner of this voice was none other than Hu Jin.
"Five million." Li Le shouted.
"Six million."
Li Le glanced at Hu Jin, raised the sign and shouted: "Ten million."
"Eleven million."
"Twenty million." After shouting, Li Le turned to Hu Jin and mouthed: "You can add more!"
The price of 20 million is really not high to be honest, but it depends on what is being photographed.
Just like the necklace just now, Li Le won the last 150 million.
But it is something valuable, because everyone knows that it is worth money, and 150 million is not high.
But what we are photographing now is a rough stone. No one knows whether there is anything inside. It is very likely that this is just a stone with nothing inside.
So in this case, the price of this rough stone is a bit high.
"Twenty million times."
"Twenty million times."
"Is there anything higher than 20 million?"
The auctioneer asked, and after looking around the audience, no one was interested.
Then he shouted: "Twenty million three times, deal done."
"Li Le, you spent 20 million to buy a rough stone. What do you think?"
You must know that the quality of this rough stone is not good. Although it is made from Laokeng material, it does not mean that the material from Laokeng must contain jade.
It's just that the probability is a little higher. You have to know that for many old pit materials, it is normal for them to come out with nothing.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Li Le asked.
"The quality of this one is not good. It's not as good as the ones at Pangu Hotel!"
Li Hao is right to say that. If you just look at the quality, this rough stone is indeed not as good as the one at Pangu Hotel last time.
But you can’t just look at the appearance of this thing! This is old material from more than thirty years ago, and it is estimated that it is rarely seen now.
They are also rough stones from Laokeng. How can the current ones be compared with the previous ones.
In fact, these are not important. What Li Le cares about is how he feels in his heart.
At this time, the auctioneer said: "The third lot is here for me."
A girl in cheongsam came up with a tray, also covered with red cloth, and no one knew what was underneath.
But one thing is that this lot is not big, or even very small, because the red cloth is almost flat on the tray.
And it's not heavy anymore, you can tell by looking at the girl holding it like it's nothing.
"This lot is provided by a private collector. It is a painting of a solitary bird in the sunset by Tang Yin and Tang Bohu."
"After appraisal by many experts, this picture is authentic."
"What the hell?" Li Le shouted in surprise.
"What's wrong Li Le?"
"It's okay." Li Le shook his head.
Not because of anything else, but because he also has a picture of a solitary swan in the sunset, and it has been authenticated by Uncle Guan and Master Liu and is absolutely authentic.
In this case, the only possibility of where this authentic painting came from is that this painting is fake, but the fakery technology is too high for many experts to see it.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, these experts are just experts. To put it bluntly, one bottle is less than half the bottle.
This is very interesting. I wonder what will happen if fakes are photographed here.
"Li Hao, what do you think will happen if fakes are photographed here?"
Li Hao was stunned for a moment when he heard this and said: "If you take a fake picture, you will take a fake picture. Who can blame you if you didn't see clearly?"
"But the organizer said it was real and had been authenticated by experts?" Li Le continued to ask.
"Uh! I don't know about this, but it probably won't be of any use, because it's up to you whether you want to take a picture or not, and the organizer isn't forcing you to take a picture."
"Okay, I understand." Li Le nodded.
"Li Le, you won't say this painting is fake, right?" Li Hao reacted.
"Who knows!" Li Le shrugged.
At this time, the auctioneer said: "Because the value of this painting is relatively high, anyone who is willing can come up and see it in person."
Hearing what the auctioneer said, Li Le said to Li Hao, "Let's go up and have a look too."
"Ah! You want to take pictures too?"
"You'll know in a minute." Li Le smiled and did not explain.
He definitely did this on purpose. Didn't Hu Jin always go against him? So he prepared to dig a hole.
In fact, there is no need at all, because Hu Jin is really interested in this painting.
Li Le and Li Hao haven't moved yet! Hu Jin had already run up.
Seeing this, Li Le became even more happy. He stood up and walked to the stage.
After Li Le had passed, what else could Li Hao do? Of course, he went up to see what he could do.
Even if you are just joining in the fun!
When Li Le came to the painting, there were already many people here, and Li Le also saw an acquaintance. Yes, this acquaintance was Mr. Lang.
However, Li Le did not disturb Mr. Lang, because Mr. Lang was looking at paintings at this time.
"Hey, Li Le, are you interested in this painting?"
Mr. Lang spotted Li Le and asked quickly because he was worried that Li Le would snatch it from him.
If it were someone else, Mr. Lang would really not be afraid, but if this person was Li Le, he would be really unsure.
At this time, Hu Jin was not far from him. Li Le glanced at Hu Jin out of the corner of his eye and said to Mr. Lang, "Yes, I am indeed interesting."
"Ah! This..." Mr. Lang smiled bitterly.
Soon everyone had finished reading, including Li Le, and Li Le read it very carefully.
To be honest, this painting looks really real, exactly the same as Li Le's painting.
But there are also differences, that is, the seals on the painting. Li Le remembers clearly that there are eleven seals in total on the painting in his hand, large and small.
There were only nine of them on this painting, and Li Le did not see the name on one of the seals on the painting in his hand.
Soon everyone returned to their seats, and the auctioneer said at this time: "The starting price for this picture of a solitary bird in the sunset is 500 million, and each increase in price must not be less than 1 million. The bidding starts now."
"Five hundred and ten million."
"Five hundred and fifty million."
"five……"
Before the man could finish shouting, Li Le raised the sign and shouted: "One billion."
Li Le's voice immediately attracted the attention of the entire auction house.
There was someone who raised the price like this. Others were asking for an increase of 10 to 20 million, but he directly raised the price to 1 billion.
It's like adding more than 400 million in one go. This is not how you spend your money!
"Li Le, you..."
Li Hao just wanted to say something, but Li Le glared at him and stopped talking.
The big guys sitting in front, especially Mr. Lang, smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
He no longer had the intention to bid. At the beginning of the auction, Li Le shouted out a price of one billion. It was obvious that he was bound to win.
Li Le deliberately gave others this feeling, otherwise why would he call one billion!
Sure enough, as soon as Li Le finished speaking, he heard Hu Jin shout: "One billion one billion."
"1.5 billion." Li Le continued to shout.
He shouted out the price, and the entire auction house gasped.
Because 1.5 billion is really too high. Although Tang Yin's paintings have been auctioned for more than 3.6 billion, it's just that one painting.
The other prices are not that high, but since someone has called this price, this painting will definitely not be lower than this price in the future.
If others were just sighing, then Hu Jin was different. He wanted to eat Li Le now.
Because in his opinion, if Li Le had not raised the price, he could have won the painting for up to one billion yuan.
But he had no idea that even without Li Le bidding, he wouldn't be able to get the one billion yuan.
You must know that there are many big guys here today. Even though these people do not appear on the rich list, their wealth can be said to be higher than those on the list.
Not sure if it was out of grudge or because he really wanted to take the picture, Hu Jin gritted his teeth and shouted: "Two billion."
He didn't believe that Li Lehe bid higher than him, and he also planned that if Li Le made another bid, he wouldn't accept it.
Because in his opinion, this painting is not worth 2 billion at all, only 15.6 billion at most.
It's a pity that he didn't know that this painting was fake. If it were real, Li Le would increase the price even if it was 2.5 billion, not to mention 2 billion.
He had not studied Tang Yin's paintings before, but since he had two paintings by Tang Yin, Li Le studied them every day!
Only then did I discover that the painting of a solitary bird in the setting clouds was actually Tang Yin's best work, ranking first among all his paintings.
The second is the Autumn Wind Fan painting. Both paintings are now in Li Le's hands. As for the value, to be honest, Li Le doesn't know.
Anyway, he thinks it is definitely worth more than 2.5 billion, because this is simply a priceless treasure.
Originally he wanted to sell it, but after researching it, he had no intention of selling it.
Although billions are a lot, to Li Le, it is just that, because he is not short of money at all now.
"Since Mr. Hu likes this painting so much, I'll give it to you." Li Le stood up and said.
Hearing what he said, Hu Jin was stunned for a moment and didn't understand what Li Le meant.
Mr. Lang also didn't understand. He didn't think Li Le couldn't afford the price.
There must be something he doesn't know about here, so let's go back and ask!
"Once in two billion."
"Is there any additional price?"
"Two billion times."
"Is there anything higher than two billion?"
It seems that the auctioneer is not very satisfied with the price.
Yes, this is Tang Yin's authentic work! Moreover, it was the number one painting, and it only fetched 2 billion, which is indeed a bit less.
But no one raised the price, so there was nothing she could do!
I can only continue to shout: "Is there any increase in price? If not, then this painting belongs to this gentleman."
"Shout quickly! Then move on to the next lot."
Hearing the shout from below, the auctioneer had no choice but to shout: "Two billion for the third time, the deal is done."
There was no way. In fact, Li Le wanted to raise the price again, but he was afraid that Hu Jin didn't know the goods. What if he didn't increase the price anymore.
This is why he asked Li Hao what he said before. If fakes are found and the organizer compensates, then Li Le will definitely increase the price.
However, the organizer will not compensate, and these lots are provided by some companies and private individuals.
Fortunately, the company said that if it is provided by a private person, you may not even know who provided it.
It’s not that the bidders don’t know, but the organizers may not even know.
Use a pseudonym, or ask someone else to send it for the photo. Who do you want to call?
This is probably the reason why the organizer will not compensate.
If this is at a regular auction house, if you find a fake, you can ask the auction house for compensation.
Of course, there is also a prerequisite here, that is, the auction house has appraised the goods and issued an appraisal certificate.
If not, then you can only ask the sender, that is, the original owner of the item, for compensation.
However, this kind of thing usually happens very rarely. Unless there is an appraisal certificate or other proof to prove that it is genuine, the auction house will not appraise it again.
Otherwise, after entering the auction house, the auction house will conduct an appraisal. If it is fake, it will not be auctioned at all.
Of course, this is talking about regular auction houses, and there are also some less formal auction houses that even specialize in auctioning fakes.
Then make huge profits, there are many such things.
"Congratulations to Mr. Hu for taking the picture of the solitary bird in the sunset." Li Le shouted from here.
"Tch, you are a bumpkin. Why don't you continue bidding? Are you out of money?" Hu Jin said excitedly.
"Oh, how can a country bumpkin like me compare with Mr. Hu? You are a rich man!"
"Hmph! Then..."
"The fourth lot is here for you."
Just when Hu Jin was about to say something, the auctioneer spoke, interrupting what Hu Jin was about to say.
Another girl wearing a cheongsam came out carrying a tray.
And Li Le discovered that none of the four girls wearing cheongsam who came out in front were the same.
That is, it is four people.
It seems that the organizer is really wealthy and they are just sending things to the stage without being tired.
There is no need for so many people! If one doesn’t work, two will do!
And now four of them have appeared, and I don’t know how many more will follow. I really have money but nowhere to spend it.
In fact, Li Le misunderstood. The girls who came to deliver the auction items in cheongsam today were not hired by money at all, but were hotel waiters.
It's all work anyway, and there's no need to spend extra money. Of course, the hotel can use as much as it can use.
And these waiters are also happy to accept this job, and this is what happened.
"The following lot is provided by a private collector."
