Chapter 425 To Avoid Embarrassment
This was Ye Yifeng's first time attending an auction. Seeing many people holding auction signs, he felt that there were too many people who were both rich and idle.
It's not good to have money to do other things, but why come to buy these scraps of metal, what is it?
Of course, this is just Ye Yifeng's personal opinion, other people don't think so.
For antique lovers all over the world, the value of antiques is not as simple as Ye Yifeng thought.
Some people focus on the collection value of antiques, while others focus on the trading value of antiques, and Bai Lechuan belongs to the latter.
Looking at the ten antiques that were about to be auctioned, Bai Lechuan's eyes became straight: "Brother Ye, how are you doing? Which antique do you think is the most worth buying?"
Sitting on the auction seat, Ye Yifeng stretched his waist: "I'll tell you when the hem comes out."
"Okay." Although Bai Lechuan was eager to make money, he didn't know much about antiques and had to rely on Ye Yifeng for everything, so he could only be obedient.
If it was in the past, Bai Lechuan would definitely not enter into fields that he did not understand to make money.
However, after starting a business partnership with Ye Yifeng, he found that Ye Yifeng's ability was far stronger than he expected, so he came to Ninghai City this time mainly to test whether Ye Yifeng understood antiques.
If you have an eye for jade, you should be good at antiques, right?
If Ye Yifeng doesn't understand, then he will come and see the excitement before going back.
If Ye Yifeng understood, then he would partner with Ye Yifeng to make another fortune.
Bai Lechuan has a faith-like attachment to making money. There are many smuggled antiques on the southwest border that are very cheap. He is jealous when he sees other people making money.
It's just that I don't have a reliable partner, so I haven't dared to do it.
If the cooperation with Ye Yifeng is successful this time, he can open up new ways to make money.
Bai Lechuan thought very well, but he didn't know that Ye Yifeng would never partner with him in illegal business.
Smuggled antiques?It's fine if Ye Yifeng doesn't report the case, but I still want Ye Yifeng to help him identify it, let's dream!
To Ye Yifeng, he is a teacher first and a businessman second.
What is the teacher going to do?Of course it is to be a teacher!
He must set a good example for students. How can he take the lead in doing illegal things?
Besides, if he can make money legally, does Ye Yifeng have to do illegal things?
Bai Lechuan didn't understand these things, so he was secretly happy now.
If you make money this time, you can recruit Ye Yifeng to join the team next time.
So, what Ye Yifeng said now is what he said, who made Ye Yifeng the uncle now?
Gu Lin and He Weilong's seats were not far from Ye Yifeng and the others, and the two accidentally had another eye contact.
Ye Yifeng didn't even bother to look at He Weilong, just like He Weilong's attitude towards Ye Yifeng before.
"Pretentious!" He Weilong snorted coldly, already thinking about how to deal with Ye Yifeng later.
If he dares to offend the eldest son of the He family, even in Ninghai City, he must let Ye Yifeng know how powerful he is!
The two sides ignored each other, and Gu Lin couldn't help but look at Qin Xueyao a few more times, with guilt in her eyes.
Qin Xueyao directly sent her a message: "Although we are good friends, I don't like He Weilong. When you break up with him, we are still good friends. Otherwise, we should not stay together to avoid embarrassment."
Gu Lin had no choice but to sigh and did not reply to the message.
Seeing that Gu Lin didn't reply to the message, Qin Xueyao also knew Gu Lin's attitude, so she stopped paying attention to Gu Lin.
Soon, everyone's attention was attracted by the first auction item.
To be precise, he was attracted by the beautiful auctioneer.
A tall woman wearing a purple cheongsam walked to the auction stage with a slight smile on her face: "Hello everyone, welcome to our Dong family's auction. I am Dong Wanran from the Dong family. The ugly words ahead, the antiques being auctioned today There are ten pieces. Because they are foreign antiques, we cannot guarantee that they are genuine, so the starting price is not high. You can come up and observe for 5 minutes. If you are really not sure, don’t bid, so as not to say anything about our Dong family. I’ve tricked you all.”
"Hey, you can't guarantee that it must be genuine?"
"Yeah, what a joke!"
"Haha, this kind of auction is really exciting! I like it!"
Seeing so many people chirping with opinions below, Dong Wanran smiled and said: "The rules are like this. If you want to accept it, you can continue. If you don't want to accept it, our Dong family doesn't force it. Everyone is open to do business. I am so open and honest. Everyone still has opinions." , Our Dong family has no choice. Now it is the first auction item, a tea bowl from the Warring States Period of the island country. The starting price is 100 million, and the price will increase by 10 each time. If you are interested, you can come and have a look. The auction will start in 5 minutes."
As Dong Wanran's voice fell, a dilapidated looking bowl was placed in the middle of the auction table.
"A teacup from the Warring States Period?"
"If it's true, it's worth at least 300 million!"
"Go up and see!"
A large group of people came forward to observe with a magnifying glass, wanting to see whether the bowl is real or not.
Gu Lin also stepped forward and observed carefully.
Ye Yifeng sat still, and made Bai Lechuan anxious: "Brother Ye, why don't you go up and have a look!"
"It's just a broken bowl, what's so interesting about it." Ye Yifeng snorted and said, "An antique is indeed an antique, but it's not from the Warring States period, but from the Meiji period. It's less than 200 years old, so it's not worth much. This antique bowl was People deliberately made it older, so that it looks like it was from the Warring States Period, but in fact it was to deceive people."
"How do you know it's from the Meiji era without even looking at it?" Qin Xueyao said with a snort, "Could you be fooling Mr. Bai?"
"Believe it or not, it's up to him!" Ye Yifeng leaned lazily on the seat, "It's worth 30 million at most, if you really want to spend 100 million to buy it, whoever buys it is stupid!"
Bai Lechuan knew that Ye Yifeng sometimes looked foolish, but he never joked about business, so even though Ye Yifeng looked very lazy at the moment, he still chose to trust Ye Yifeng: "Well, okay, I won't shoot."
Five minutes passed, and Gu Lin also sat back in her seat.
He Weilong didn't know how to look at antiques, so he asked Gu Lin, "Linlin, is that bowl real?"
"It's true, but there's no way to judge the year." Gu Lin shook her head, "Our principle is to not touch antiques with uncertain years."
"Then don't buy it." He Weilong smiled, "Tell me which one you like, even if it's fake, as long as you like it, I'll buy it for you."
"No need." Gu Lin said with a blushing face, "My dad gave me money..."
"What your dad gave you was what your dad gave you, and what I gave you was what I gave you. It's different." He Weilong said with a smile on his face, "Don't you want to accept my gift?"
Gu Lin didn't know what to say. At this moment, Dong Wanran knocked the hammer: "Everyone, the first item, the auction has begun."
