"Lu Qi, I remember you said that you won't let Brother Lu get anything at the auction, have you forgotten?" Xiao Yang started to get angry. "It's no wonder, after all, you are always a person who doesn't keep your word.
"Human." She said and took the teacup Inu Cong out of her arms. "Qiqi, do you think what dad said is right?"
"Woof!" the teacup dog barked twice.
Lu Qi's face was gloomy.
If he wasn't worried about causing a fight between the two families, he would have kicked Xiao Yang down long ago.
However, Xiao Yang's provocation made Lu Qi understand something. Xiao Yang and Lu Feng worked together to provoke him to bid randomly. In fact, this thing was probably theirs.
Lu Qi smiled coldly. "Xiao Yang, I advise you not to waste your efforts. Do you really think I don't know that you are setting a trap for me?"
"Three million and one million for the first time...the third time, deal!" Lu Tao lowered the auction hammer.
Lu Qi was not fooled by the first thing. This was what Lu Feng had expected. In fact, he was not in a hurry at all.
As for the reason, it is actually very simple. Lu Qi would definitely take a picture of the ancient inkstone that Lu Feng picked up.
Lu Qi's father, Lu Yuanshan, was fond of painting. He wrote and painted on weekdays and loved to collect the Four Treasures of the Study. However, he always regretted the lack of a decent ancient inkstone.
Just imagine, if Lu Qi knew the origin of this ancient inkstone, he would have to sharpen his head to get it.
Lu Feng asked Wu Liang to put all the other eight items except the ancient inkstone and brush washer at the front of the auction, but let the ancient inkstone appear on the auction table at the end. One was to dispel Lu Qi's doubts, and the other was to give Lu Qi something to eat.
A piece of reassurance - the inkstone is the last item to be auctioned, so of course I have no worries and go all out to get the ancient inkstone.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Lu." Lu Feng said with joy on his face. "I thought I would sell this bowl for tens of millions."
Lu Qi snorted coldly.
You kid, keep pretending.
"Please bring out the second lot, a green pomelo bowl from Ru Kiln in the Song Dynasty."
Xiaowen walked onto the stage holding seven bowls.
Today, Xiaowen has been personally promoted by her boss to assistant vice president, which is also Lu Tao's assistant.
Assistant to the vice president, this is already considered a high-level position. Xiaowen can be said to have reached the sky in one step.
In fact, she deserves this, after all, her business ability has been seen by the boss in the video.
Everyone stared blankly at the seven bowls of the same color and different sizes lined up on the auction table.
When did the damn Ru kilns from the Song Dynasty become so worthless that they were moved pile by pile onto the stage?
Absolutely fake!
But these people just dare to complain in their hearts.
Are you going to jump out and question the organizer?
If you cannot produce substantive evidence, the organizer will not only refuse to admit it, but will accuse you of false accusation.
In fact, this is the so-called unspoken rule in the industry.
As the old man said, don't tell if you see through it, everyone understands it tacitly. What I'm selling you is a real thing. As for where it came from and how it got on the auction table, don't worry about it.
Lu Tao picked up the smallest bowl casually. "These seven bowls are all from official kilns. The seller said that if you want to sell them, you should sell them as a set of seven together. I would rather lose the auction than sell them one by one."
"
He put down the bowl and picked up the auction hammer. "Without further ado, the starting bid for this set of bowls is 8.5 million, and each bid must not be less than 200,000."
Although 8.5 million is a lot, it is still a very reasonable price.
"I'll pay fifteen million." Xiao Yang was the first to bid. He looked around the crowd. "Don't argue with me. I have exactly seven dogs at home, and exactly seven bowls, one for each person. By the way, they were separated.
Called Daqi, Erqi... Liuqi, Qiqi." When he mentioned Qiqi, he took out the teacup dog again. "Good boy, say hello to your brothers and sisters." He said so, but
He pointed the dog's head at Lu Qi.
"Woof woof."
For a moment, Lu Qi wanted to snatch the teacup dog away and twist its head off.
So damn infuriating.
However, the second lot was still a bowl. Lu Qi felt that this was still a game between two people, so naturally he would not follow the auction.
As for other people, even if they are interested in this set of bowls, they don’t dare to increase the price.
"make a deal!"
Lu Tao made the final decision.
Xiao Yang took down the bowl and smiled at Lu Feng.
It seems that Xiao Yang is very smart. He seems to have thought that this set of bowls belongs to Lu Feng. In fact, this is also the reason why he asked for 15 million.
He felt that Lu Feng had a bad temper towards him, and if he wanted to make this friend, the extra few million would be used to buy him cigarettes.
Lu Feng also nodded and smiled.
Lu Qi saw the two people's actions and felt extremely proud.
Want to lie to me?
Your moral conduct is still far from enough.
Then items were brought up one after another, some fetched high prices, and some failed to sell.
It wasn't until more than half of the items were taken that Liu Yuejiao came back.
"how's it going?"
In fact, Liu Yuejiao has been hiding in the crowd, and asking this question is just looking for something to say.
"It's still a bowl."
Liu Yuejiao rolled her eyes. "What on earth do you mean? If you are timid, everything will be snatched away by others later."
She really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine Lu Feng Gourd sold.
He said he wanted to make a big deal at the afternoon auction, but he only bought one bowl.
Are you planning to shoot the finale?
Lu Feng looked mysterious. "Don't worry, the last few items are our goals."
Liu Yuejiao's interest was piqued and she lowered her voice and asked: "What is the final item? Have you already got the inside information?"
"Shh!"
Lu Feng hurriedly made a silence gesture. "Don't be so loud, be careful of dogs on the wall." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Qi, who was eavesdropping with his ears raised.
Pretending to be mysterious.
I will never be fooled by you again.
At worst, I won’t take pictures of anything.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.
The auction is also coming to an end.
"Dang, Dang, Dang!" Lu Tao suddenly hit the auction hammer three times with an excited look on his face. "Everyone, the exciting moment has arrived! The last five items to be auctioned next will be the final items."
Everyone concentrated their attention and stared at Lu Tao.
Some people come here for the finale items, but the vast majority of people come to watch the fun.
It’s also good to accumulate some bragging rights.
When Lu Qi saw Lu Feng looking like he had been injected with chicken blood, he immediately smiled disdainfully.
Keep acting and see if I can be fooled by you.
"Today's five final items are all related to painting." Lu Tao smiled mysteriously. "If you are fond of painting, you have copied it today, because these five items are all treasures. And one of them is the best.
Excellent!"
Everyone seemed to be used to Lu Tao's betrayal and did not make a sound to urge him.
Lu Qi's pupils suddenly shrank.
The things used in painting must be the four treasures of the study.
I wonder if there is an inkstone?
If there is, I will take a photo of it today even if it costs a sky-high price!
Even if this is Lu Feng's trick.
Although Lu Yuanshan is uneducated and incompetent, he is deeply loved by his ancestor Lu Hongtao. His love for Lu Yuanshan is like Liu Haiyang's love for Liu Yuejiao.
The reason why he loves him so much is because Lu Yuanshan once bought an ancient painting by mistake, and Lu Hongtao actually understood the opportunity for breakthrough from the painting.
He also broke through the realm that he had been stuck in for more than ten years and became a peerless master.
In other words, as long as Lu Yuanshan is happy, it is equivalent to making the ancestor happy. In this way, Lu Qi's identity as the future heir will be more stable.
