Chapter 30
Lin Xiao didn't take Deng Wenjun seriously at all, but focused on looking at the auction brochure in his hand.
"You've been looking at this thing. Is there anything special about it?" Ouyang Rumeng discovered that Lin Xiao had been looking at a lot in the brochure just after getting out of the car.
This thing is a wooden artifact, but its shape is very strange, and it is very old, almost five hundred years old.
It's a pity that it's just a utensil made of huanghuali wood.
What this instrument is used for, experts have not yet figured out.
That's all the explanation about this lot in the brochure.
Ouyang Rumeng was not very interested in this thing. You should know that precious wooden utensils can be seen everywhere in the Ouyang family's old house.
And this thing is only worth hundreds of thousands.
Lin Xiao nodded and said:
"This thing is useful to me."
Ouyang Rumeng nodded and said, "Then I will buy it for you later?"
Lin Xiao shook his head and said calmly: "No, I can buy it myself."
Ouyang Rumeng was stunned, took a deep breath, and turned to look at the auction table.
"Dear guests, welcome to Zhenhua Auction, our auction starts now."
"Today's first auction is..."
The auction soon got down to business. Lin Xiao learned from the auction brochure that the lot he needed was lot No. 4.
Therefore, Lin Xiao almost didn't listen to what was said before. He just sat back on the chair and closed his eyes to relax.
Seeing Lin Xiao like this, Deng Wenjun, who was not far away, snorted and looked at Ouyang Rumeng beside Lin Xiao, thinking that Lin Xiao was accompanying Ouyang Rumeng for a formality.
But even so, after the auction ended, he prepared a big gift for Lin Xiao!
Soon, the first three lots were sold out, and there was basically no excitement.
When the third lot was finalized, Lin Xiao opened his eyes directly, but Deng Wenjun, who had been paying attention to Lin Xiao, was a little surprised.
At this time, the beautiful auctioneer has already been invited. The fourth lot!
"The next is today's fourth lot."
The beautiful auctioneer explained as she walked to the tray covered with red cloth.
"This is a huanghuali wooden vessel from the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty. Its specific use is unknown. It may be an ornament."
"However, the surface of this huanghuali woodware is perfectly patinated, and there is no crack in the entire woodware."
"The starting price of the woodware is 100,000 yuan, and the increase must not be less than 5,000 yuan!"
As soon as the beautiful auctioneer finished speaking, someone raised the price:
"One hundred and ten thousand!"
This huanghuali woodware is still five hundred years old. To Ouyang Rumeng, it is nothing, but to others, it is considered a treasure. If you put one at home, you can show it off to people who come to visit.
show off.
Ouyang Rumeng looked at Lin Xiao, but saw that Lin Xiao was sitting firmly in his seat, with no intention of taking action at all.
This actually surprised Ouyang Rumeng.
Doesn’t Lin Xiao want this thing? Why is he still sitting still now?
Before Ouyang Rumeng could think too much, someone immediately made a bid on the other side:
"One hundred and twenty thousand!"
"One hundred and fifty thousand!"
...
The price was raised to 230,000, and then the bidding slowly stopped.
"One time two hundred and thirty thousand! Two times two hundred and thirty thousand!"
The auctioneer started bidding.
Just when the auctioneer had raised the small wooden hammer in his hand, a faint voice came.
"Three hundred thousand." Lin Xiao slowly raised the sign in his hand.
The small wooden hammer in the auctioneer's hand paused, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Lin Xiao.
