Chapter 74: Li Duanduan and the Three-colored Horse
After the appraisal was completed, they naturally made their own bids. However, when several people who went up to appraisal were raising prices one after another and raised the auction price to 610,000 yuan, Fatty Ma suddenly called for a price of 700,000 yuan and finally bought the bronze money tree.
"Okay, here is the third item today, the picture of Li Duanduan by Tang Yin and Tang Bohu of the Ming Dynasty. If you are interested, you can come forward to watch it, but don't get started," Langjie said next, which made Tang Ping's spirit slightly shocked, but no one came forward to check it out, and the scene became a little cold for a moment.
Unable to take a picture of the money tree, Old Man Xie was in a bad mood and couldn't help but say, "I said Langjie, you are not Shatus' shawl today, but Tang Bohu's paintings. What are you doing? Okay, change to another lot!"
"Well...Boss Xie, I'll talk about it after seeing the things. Although this picture of Li Duanduan by Tang Bohu is not the original work of Tang Bohu, the imitation level is still very good and worth collecting and playing with it," Langjie coughed awkwardly.
After hearing Langjie's words, the old man who came next to Old Man Xie walked forward skeptically, put on a pair of white gloves, and unfolded the scroll with a young man next to the table. He just looked at it with a magnifying glass for a few times, shook his head and walked back.
"Tang Bohu's Li Duanduan picture is priced at RMB 3,000. You can come up and take a look. It is very good to hang the pictures of beautiful ladies at home. Maybe you don't know that Li Duanduan is the prototype of Qiuxiang in Tang Bohu's Qiuxiang. It can be said that it is well-founded and inherited in an orderly manner!" Langjie, who was shouting on the top, saw that everyone did not respond, couldn't help but look at Fatty Ma, hoping that Boss Ma could take the picture generously.
But Fatty Ma is not Kaizi! No one wants to take a look at Li Duanduan picture. If he bids, he will be really stupid. At this moment, Fatty Ma seems to have not heard Langjie's words, and is teasing Yao Yan's girl next to him!
After waiting for a long time, Langjie, who was not interested in this painting, felt helpless and had to speak, "Since everyone is not interested in this painting, let's continue to go down..."
"Hey, wait a moment! Boss Langjie, can I ask, do you have a total of several auction items for this auction?" Tang Ping suddenly asked.
Langjie was stunned when he heard this and said with a smile: "Not counting this picture of Li Duanduan, there are four more, little brother, you..."
"There are only four pieces? Are there any calligraphy and paintings?" Tang Ping continued to ask, and everyone else was a little impatient when he heard it. Langjie was speechless, but he still smiled and said, "No, there is only such a painting in the auction items today."
"Okay, then I'll buy it. I finally came here. We can't go back empty-handed," Tang Ping said casually as if he was a little depressed.
"Buy it? Little brother, are you talking about this picture of Li Duanduan?" Langjie was stunned for a moment, and then asked hurriedly with joy in his heart.
Tang Ping, who nodded slightly, took out a stack of money from the bag that Zhou Rui was carrying, took out three thousand yuan and handed it to Langjie, and then took the Li Duanduantu from him.
After Tang Ping came back in a good mood with the pair of Li Duanduantu, Liu Chuan couldn't help but say, "It's fake. Why are you buying it? You're so terrified when you take it back and wipe your butt."
"If you can't buy the real one, we can't buy a fake one and go back to play with it? Besides, it's just 3,000 yuan, and it's not expensive," Tang Ping said casually.
Seeing that Liu Chuan was still a little angry and wanted to speak, Tang Ping couldn't help but whisper: "Do you think the next item would be cheap if it was a good thing? I'm afraid it would take hundreds of thousands to get it. The money we brought with us would probably not even be able to take a real thing, so it would be a waste of time?"
"Okay! Since you like it, buy it," Liu Chuan was speechless. Looking at Tang Ping's casual look, he didn't know what to say.
Tang Ping, who smiled, didn't say anything more. The picture of Li Duanduan in his hand seemed worthless, but it was just a packaging for the real Li Duanduan. The picture of Li Duanduan, which is truly worth tens of millions, is in the mezzanine of this painting!
I bought the real Li Duanduan Picture for three thousand yuan, but I picked up a huge leak! This is the charm of picking up a bargain.
As for the contempt and impatientness of others, it can only mean that they are blind. If they knew that the real Li Duanduan picture was hidden in the fake paintings they thought, I was afraid that each of them would regret it, including Langjie.
Sure enough, as Tang Ping expected, although the following auction items were all real, none of them were cheap, and the transaction price was more than hundreds of thousands.
Perhaps for real collectors, it is worth it even if they can buy an authentic product for a lot of money.
But for Tang Ping, what he was interested in was not collecting, but the fun brought by picking up bargains and the real benefits brought to him by antiques.
After all, no matter how good it is, it cannot be eaten or drunk. The key is that it cannot be brought back to the real world. What's the use?
If it weren't for buying this picture of Li Duanduan at a bargain price, Tang Ping might not have been interested in participating in this grassland black market.
In fact, there was a bronze sword from the Warring States Period. Tang Ping and Liu Chuan were very interested. Liu Chuan was purely his own preference, while Tang Ping guessed that the Song army would like it, so he sold it to him and deepened his friendship with the Song army. Why not do it?
Unfortunately, the old man Xie also set his sights on the bronze sword. In the end, he and Liu Chuan kept raising the price and finally bought the bronze sword for 310,000 yuan.
It can be seen that Old Man Xie really liked the bronze sword. Even if Tang Ping and the others took more money and were willing to pay a higher price, they would not have much profit margin in the end.
The Warring States Bronze Sword is actually not a rare thing. Even if it is of good quality, it is only worth hundreds of thousands or one or two million.
Although the old man Xie finally took a photo of the bronze sword, his face turned pale and he gritted his teeth and stared at Liu Chuan. It was obvious that Liu Chuan's price raising made him spend a lot of extra money, and the final price was somewhat annoying.
Finally, the last item was a Tang Sancai horse. If it was real, it would be a good thing. Unfortunately, Tang Ping used spiritual energy to investigate and found that it was a fake, and it was a very good counterfeit.
Tang Ping, who knew the details, just casually mixed up and called for a price of 300,000 yuan, increasing the auction price, and finally made Takeuchi spend 400,000 yuan to buy this exquisite modern antique craft.
The auction was over, but Fatty Ma suddenly came over to take the ride from Tang Ping and the others, which made Tang Ping feel a little confused. He thought that my buddy is already low-key enough today. Could this Fatty Ma with a sharp look have seen something?
Liu Chuan was generous and did not refuse, but he couldn't help but say something: "Let's go, I guess it's going to take it hard for you to squeeze in the Santana car door."
After getting in the car, when he saw Liu Chuan take out a bottle to feed the two little Tibetan mastiffs, Fatty Ma glared: "Huh? Brother Liu Chuan, you are not kind. You obviously have three little Tibetan mastiffs, but you are unwilling to sell one to my brother. Isn't my money money? "
