Lin Yu was quite shocked, but he didn't rush to ask questions. He planned to observe and then talk about it. At the same time, he became very interested in the collection that will be auctioned tonight.
If this collection is more expensive than this Ming Dynasty golden cicada and jade leaf, then he is really not wrong tonight!
"Everyone knows that the golden cicada jade leaf that our country discovered in Wufeng Mountain was defined as a national treasure, and this golden cicada jade leaf was a treasure that was lost abroad in the past, whether in terms of quality or material
, not inferior to that national treasure, so if you have friends who like it, don't miss the opportunity!" The fat butler said with a smile, "According to the seller's pricing, this collection starts at 50 million, and the price increase step is 5 million. Now
Start bidding!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and immediately dropped the hammer.
"Sixty million!"
"Eighty million!"
"One to 120 million!"
...
Everyone below immediately shouted the price and was very excited. They obviously wanted to take this golden cicada jade leaf into their pocket.
Lin Yu glanced at He Qingwu beside him, and when he saw him smiling, he looked calm, and seemed to have no interest in auctioning.
At first, Lin Yu wanted to remind him, but after the price of this collection reached a certain level, Lin Yu felt that there was no point in bidding, so he didn't speak.
Finally, the golden cicada jade leaf was sold for 320 million yuan, and the fat housekeeper then called out another collection, a blue sky ball bottle and a national treasure-level cultural relic. It is said that it was from the Yuanmingyuan that year.
It was circulated and lost, but unexpectedly it appeared at this auction at this time.
Lin Yu couldn't help but be shocked. Who is the owner of this manor? Just from the sellers he knows, you can guess that the owner of the family is definitely not an ordinary person!
Even the owner of this manor has a connection not only in China, but also in foreign countries, he may have a huge network of relationships.
Lin Yu even began to wonder if he was a Chinese. Although his manor decoration style was all traditional Chinese style, this did not mean that he was a Chinese.
This time, He Qingwu still had no intention of taking action. He still looked calm and listened quietly to other people's quotes.
However, the old man of the Chu family was very happy to see this porcelain bottle. Before he could speak, Chu Yunxi, who was tactful, immediately called the price and wanted to buy the bottle and give it to his grandfather as a gift.
Others who were interested in this bottle also called for the price, but seeing that Chu Yunxi kept following the price, they knew that Chu Yunxi was bound to win this collection, so they did not follow the price again. After all, they offended the Chu family and were against them.
There is no benefit, and this can be regarded as a favor they sold to the Chu family.
Finally, the Blue Sky Ball Bottle was photographed for only 80 million yuan. Chu Yunxi was also sensible. He stood up and smiled at everyone, saying, "Thank you for your humility!"
He Ziqin and He Ziheng glanced at Chu Yunxi, their eyes full of disgust.
Although they disliked Chu Yunxi very much, they were helpless. There was no way. Their children were so incompetent that they were not on the same level as others!
The following collections were all priceless, but He Qingwu did not bid for a single one. Obviously, these collections could not make him moved.
Lin Yu also realized at this time that He Qingwu was clearly coming to the finale of the collection!
After all these collections were filmed, the fat housekeeper smiled and said, "The collection that will appear next is the collection that everyone is most looking forward to, and the most precious collection at our auction! And
Everyone must have heard of the legend about it, so I won’t say much. Let’s go directly to the auction stage!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately winked at the man in black standing under the platform beside him. The man in black nodded and called two helpers to walk quickly to the backstage.
After hearing this, everyone was excited and whispered, with great anticipation on their faces.
Lin Yu immediately became interested and squinted his eyes at the fat housekeeper. He didn't know if the thing he was talking about was really good or if he was making a fool of himself.
After all, it is not uncommon to deliberately exaggerate the words at auction in order to increase the value of cultural relics!
Not long after the men in black left, they walked back with an object covered with a red cloth, and after they came on stage, they placed it respectfully on the stage.
"Everyone, take a look!"
The fat butler grinned, then stretched out his fleshy hand and grabbed the red cloth. Then he lifted it and saw a blue-gray three-eared tripod about twenty or thirty centimeters high on the tray below.
Lin Yu was slightly stunned. He really didn't expect that the so-called ultimate treasure was such a three-eared tripod with a weak appearance.
He could not see a trace of green light from the cauldron, and judging by its material, it did not seem to be cast in bronze and had almost no great collection value.
But what was completely different from his reaction was that the people below were instantly excited and stretched their necks to look at the stage.
He Qingwu, who was originally indifferent, suddenly became energetic, his eyes shone brightly, and he looked at the three-eared tripod on the stage without blinking, obviously with great interest.
He Ziqin and He Ziheng were also full of excitement, looked at each other, and then nodded heavily.
"Divine King Cauldron, is this the legendary Divine King Cauldron?!"
"It seems like it should be!"
"It must be, it must be impossible to be wrong!"
"It is said that Genghis Khan used it to expand his territory and was invincible. Is this true or false with the throne that Li Zicheng used it to grab?!"
"I have heard that, really, Li Zicheng lost the God King Cauldron shortly after he became emperor, so his dream of emperor woke up. Later, the God King Cauldron fell into Huang Taiji's hands, so
Then the Qing Dynasty came into being!”
"It's true or false, these are all legends!"
Everyone below talked and talked a lot.
Lin Yu's expression changed slightly when he heard them, and then he suddenly turned his head and looked at the three-eared tripod on the table.
God King Cauldron?!
This is actually the legendary God King Cauldron?!
In the memories of his ancestors, he also had an understanding of this God King Cauldron, but it all came from historical books. Legend has it that this God King Cauldron can have the ability to reach the sky and the earth, change people's fortunes, and maintain the prosperity of the family!
In history, anyone who has obtained this God King Cauldron is either rich or noble, and is well-known. Among them, the most famous are Genghis Khan, Li Zicheng and Huang Taiji. Their destiny is extraordinary, so they have obtained this God King.
After the tripod, he became the most powerful person at that time.
However, this is just an exaggeration of the legends of later generations and there is no real record. Therefore, in Lin Yu's view, this God King Cauldron is only a symbol of a beautiful meaning at most, not as magical as the legendary ones.
At this time, he finally understood the reason why He Ziqin and He Qingwu wanted to get this God King Cauldron. Obviously, they also wanted their family to remain prosperous.
Although they also know that it is nonsense to rely on the God King Cauldron to change their fortunes, at least for them, this God King Cauldron is a beautiful meaning and a kind of comfort.
Of course, the reason why they want this God King Cauldron is due to a competitive mentality. If the families in the capital do not want this God King Cauldron, they will naturally not be interested.
It is precisely because all the major families in the capital want to obtain this God King Cauldron that their abilities have been created and the competitive psychology of the He family has also inspired.
Regardless of whether this thing is useful or not, at least you get it yourself, it is better than others.
The old man of the Chu family obviously had this kind of mentality. After seeing this God King Cauldron, a nearly greedy light suddenly burst out in his eyes.
Chu Xilian and Chu Yunxi beside him were also very excited, wishing to rush up and carry the cauldron back now.
Lin Yu couldn't help but smile helplessly and shook his head. In his opinion, this tripod was ordinary and had nothing special at all.
Moreover, the so-called God King Cauldron is just a legend, and it is not certain whether it really exists.
Besides, there is no green light around this God King Cauldron, which is probably fake.
"Everyone, just calm down. In fact, no one knows whether the legend about this God King Cauldron is true or false, but this God King Cauldron does have its extraordinary and even magical features!"
The fat butler said with a smile, "Next, I will show you all!"
