Chapter 733 Intrigue
The auctioneer waited for about a minute and saw that no one had made a bid yet, so he was ready to drop the hammer.
Finally, Yang Shiqi couldn't help it anymore and raised his number plate again.
"Eight thousand."
Others offered higher prices, and Du Tian looked very excited as he watched.
"Okay, eight thousand, is there anything higher than this?" The auctioneer was also very happy, but he still had to pretend to be calm.
After shouting three times in a row, the auctioneer was ready to drop the hammer.
But unexpectedly, I saw someone holding up a number plate again.
"Nine thousand."
It was Lin Ran who raised the placard to bid.
Yang Jianlong, who was sitting next to him, looked calm on the surface, but was murmuring in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that it was an auction, he would have really wanted to grab Lin Ran and ask what was going on.
Even if they have to raise the price with others, it should be done in moderation. If the other party doesn't follow the price of [-], they will suffer a big loss.
After seeing Lin Ran raising the sign again, Yang Shiqi couldn't help but feel angry.
What is this guy's background?He actually wanted to fight with himself.
Yang Shiqi is not short of this little money and is ready to raise his card again.
Li Yu, who was sitting next to him, quickly said: "Mr. Yang Shiqi, the person on the other side is driving up the price."
It was already outrageous to sell an enamel color for five thousand. Now the price has almost doubled, and I think it has exceeded the collection value.
Buying it at this time is simply crazy.
But he did not dare to say these words, but said tactfully: "The other party may be a spy sent by the enamel seller. We can't spend this unjust money."
Although Li Yu also wanted to take this opportunity to attack Yang Jianlong, the other party was his employer after all. If he suffered a big loss, it would definitely not be good for his future development.
Yang Shiqi looked very unhappy: "Then what do you want to do?"
While he wanted to take pictures of the cultural relics, he felt that what Li Yu said was somewhat reasonable, so he asked for his opinion.
"Is there anyone else who has offered a higher price?" the auctioneer asked as usual, and his eyes were looking directly in the direction of Yang Shiqi.
This is the kind of customer who likes the most when holding an auction, bidding against each other, saving him the trouble.
Others were dissatisfied. Since they couldn't buy anything, they might as well pack up and go home.
The foreigner sitting behind Lin Ran cursed: "Why are you talking nonsense? Hurry up and drop the hammer."
His few Chinese sentences are extremely standard.
Although Yang Jianlong felt helpless, they also carried the name of Zulong Chamber of Commerce and were a well-known antique family. They could still afford antiques worth tens of thousands of yuan.
Some people actually took the opportunity to laugh at Yang Shiqi: "Young Sir, you can't even snatch a monkey."
He spoke in English, so not many people understood him. Otherwise, other buyers would not let him go if he said this.
Lin Ran glanced at the guy who had just shouted. Yang Shiqi's face darkened at this moment. This was not a matter of money, but a matter of his own reputation.
He raised his sign and shouted without thinking: "Ten thousand!"
Although the guy was embarrassed just now, he also inadvertently gave Lin Ran an assist.
"Godfather, please stop shouting." Yang Jianlong whispered, his palms sweating, fearing that Lin Ran would raise the price again.
The price of [-] yuan is already very high, and it can be said to be a milestone in the auction.
"Ten thousand once, ten thousand twice..." The auctioneer deliberately prolonged his voice and looked at Lin Ran, waiting for him to bid.
However, Lin Ran felt that it was enough, and smiled, and he could see his sarcasm through the mask.
He put the sign in his hand on the table and turned it upside down, obviously giving up the bidding.
Seeing this, the host shouted: "[-] deal!"
The auction hammer fell.
Yang Shiqi was so angry that even though the guy was wearing a mask, he was trying to show off to him.
Yang Shiqi was so angry that he just wanted to strangle Lin Ran to death, but then his gentlemanly demeanor would be exposed.
The starting price of the enamel color was [-] yuan, which soared to [-] yuan. Others present were stunned.
They watched Yang Shiqi take down the cultural relics, and they also watched Cui Zhijian deliberately target the family.
"Congratulations to No. [-] for winning the enamel bottle with pine, bamboo and plum patterns!"
The auctioneer seemed very happy. Falangcai actually sold for [-] yuan, allowing him to get a large commission.
He was equally grateful to Lin Ran and Yang Shiqi, and couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear as if he had eaten candy.
The string of money actually sold for 200 million, how much did he increase it?
Yang Shiqi was secretly worried that he had spent an extra 5000 yuan in vain.
Fortunately, he got the cultural relics and donated them to the British Museum, which made him less sad.
It was all the fault of the gangsters from Zulong Company. Yang Shiqi looked at them carefully and it seemed that Li Yu knew Yang Jianlong.
It won't be that simple when they fall into their hands in the future.
"Let's go." Yang Shiqi felt that he had no interest at all and was about to leave with Li Yu.
Du Tian stood at the door with a smile and said to him: "Sir Yang Shiqi, I will come to visit you often in the future."
"If I come later, don't put anyone in the auction. It will simply lower the price." Yang Shiqi was annoyed.
He couldn't just say that he wouldn't let Lin Ran come. If there was no competition, how could it be called an auction?
But it is still necessary to express dissatisfaction.
"Okay, okay." Du Tian agreed, "Those who can enter our auction are all our high-quality customers."
His words left Yang Shiqi speechless. He ignored him and went directly to the backyard to subscribe for cultural relics.
Of course, these hard work can be done by his subordinates, and his subordinate is Li Yu.
Li Yu came to the backyard to carry out the delivery of cultural relics.
"Thank you, brothers from the Zulong Chamber of Commerce. This is my business card. We will cooperate more in the future!" Du Tian obviously didn't recognize Lin Ran and enthusiastically sent him his business card.
Lin Ran just sneered. Yang Jianlong took the business card and said, "Your market has developed. Now you are still receiving domestic customers?"
His words were full of sarcasm, but Du Tian didn't take it seriously: "Now that we have changed our boss, we will serve more Chinese people in the future."
His skin is as thick as pig skin, but the business card still comes next. After all, there are Chinese businessmen present, and basic etiquette is indispensable.
Li Yu also came over to pay for the cultural relics at this time. He took out a stack of money, put it on the table, and said to Du Tian, "Arrange for someone to load the car for me."
"Yes." Du Tian quickly agreed.
While talking, Li Yu also glanced at Yang Jianlong.
Yang Jianlong looked surprised and said, "Master Li, long time no see."
"Don't call me master, I'm not worthy of you." Li Yu replied angrily.
"Master Li, my dad has tried his best to help you with what happened back then." Yang Jianlong replied.
It seemed that there was some dispute between them. Lin Ran was watching from the side, and Li Yu's eyes stopped on him.
"Is this your Tianlexingxin's master? He looks really young, haha, it's better not to be tricked by Zheng Xueming."
After saying those harsh words, he turned around and left the auction house.
