Next is the appraisal time for the third round of auction items, and everyone can rest for a while, but this time the appraisal time was a little longer, because the last round of goods also identified fakes, and the conclusion was reached after joint appraisal by Shi Qian and the men of various colleges.

During the rest process, many people were discussing the matter of Mr. Xingzhi spending 70,000 taels to bid for the box of files. Several masters also asked about Mr. Xingzhi. Some asked about the reasons for buying this box of files at such a large price, and some asked how to pay the 50,000 taels if they lost in the future. Regarding the subsequent 50,000 taels, Mr. Xingzhi only said one sentence, "I will find a way to raise it." and then dealt with it. As for why the bid was, Mr. Xingzhi told several masters a lot about the importance and significance of this box of materials and navigation, but several people just shook their heads and sighed and could not accept it.

"The third round of auction began, and the first item was Mr. Dong Qichang from Shidong Academy's "Liang Huaisu Self-Portrait Book", which was indeed the original work of Mr. Dong. The base price was 5,000 taels, and each time it was increased by 50 taels." Yang Jing was a little tired, so the third round of auction was handed over to Shi Qian. Shi Qian's ability to appreciate was to learn from Mr. Dong Qichang, so he was particularly respectful when he mentioned Mr. Dong's words.

Everyone was surprised to hear that the first item was from Shidong Academy. Because it was auctioned in sequence, the first two rounds of Shidong Academy were both Imperial College and Xingzhi Academy. This time they were skipped. In addition, Shi Qian and several academy appraisers had identified the problem before, some people figured out the problem. The items from Imperial College and Xingzhi Academy should have been identified as fakes and placed at the end.

At this time, only Zhu Yingan was the only one in the audience who didn't expect this. He was extremely excited and pulled Zhang Zhiji and said, "Tiyu, hurry up and take a quick shot."

"Why, this book is the belonging of Brother Yuanting?" Zhang Zhiji guessed it when he saw Zhu Yingan's appearance.

"That's natural. Now there are a few people who can ask for the word "Kan Kasumi". This is a whole book, and I finally stolen it from my father."

Zhang Zhiji had heard of Duke Cheng's love for Mr. Xiang Guang's calligraphy and painting works. This whole book was stolen and sold. I am afraid that if this young master was discovered, he would be beaten to death when he returned.

"Who told the old man that there was nothing else for me to steal except Mr. Xiangguang's calligraphy and paintings? Or I don't know which one is valuable or which one is not valuable."

"Then I won't take a photo, otherwise your father wouldn't have hit me and snatched it back." Zhang Zhiji said.

"Tiyu, just think of doing me a favor. I will pay the money. If I get it back, I will not be able to find out if I get it back. If you think I donate something myself, it will be so funny to take it back." Zhu Yingan bowed to Zhang Zhiji with his hands clasped.

"Okay, I'll help you." Zhang Zhiji glanced at Zhu Yingan's funny look and felt a little funny.

After a while, the bidding has been several rounds, and the price has reached 5,500 taels. Zhang Zhiji raised his hand and said, "5,550 taels."

After several rounds of bidding, Zhang Zhiji finally took a photo with 5,950 taels.

This indicates that Shidong Academy has lost the auction.

"The second lot is Xu Wei and Xu Wenchang's "The Picture of the Donkey Back Back to the Forest" by Xu Wenchang from Youlu Academy. The figures left by Xu Wenchang are rare, which are called the writing opinions. The upper right is Xu Wei's five-character poem. This work has an age mark, and the works of Wenchang are rarely of the year mark. Most of the works of Wenchang are later, and there are Wenchang's seals and seals of Wenchang's Shanren Tianchi. Xu Wenchang's works have these three seals. They are identified as original works, with a base price of 8,800 taels, and each time they are increased by 100 taels."

After Xu Wei's death, many stories about Xu Wenchang were circulated in the Ming Dynasty, some real and some fabricated. Therefore, literati and scholars highly praised Xu Wei. Although his works were not long, they were extremely expensive, and some rare works were much higher than Dong Qichang.

The final auction price was 12,500 taels.

Although the transaction price of Xu Wei's "The Picture of the Donkey Back to the Forest" is not low, because the gap between the first two rounds is too big, Youlu Academy has also failed.

"The third item is a guqin from Hengyang Academy. This zither was made by Cai Yong of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It was identified as the authentic product. I don't need to introduce the allusions of Jiaowei. The base price is 30,000 taels, and the price is 3,000 taels each time."

When the people in the auction hall heard that the piano was actually a charred tail, many people were ready to move, but when they heard the minimum price of 30,000 taels, few people were thinking about it. 30,000 taels was the highest reserve price since today's auction, nearly twice the reserve price of the second.

All literati are good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so they are not moved by Jiaowei. However, there are not many people who can really pay so much money. Xu Minger looked at this Jiaowei full of stories, feeling indescribable. However, the Xu family is an honest official, not to mention 30,000 taels, Xu Minger may not be able to take out even 300 taels.

When Xu Erjue saw Xu Minger's appearance, he knew that his sister was obsessed with the guqin, so he had to comfort him, "Sister, the guqin is about a fate. If Jiao Wei is destined to be with her, she will be her sister in the end."

"What nonsense about Erjue, my sister just looked at her and felt that she liked her. If she didn't have any fate, she had to take it for herself, and that would be inferior." Xu Minger understood what Xu Erjue meant, and instead educated Xu Erjue.

"What? Miss Xu is interested in this piano?" Fang Shihong saw Xu Minger not far away and saw Jiao Wei's distracted look and said deliberately. Seeing Xu Minger ignored him, Fang Shihong raised his hand and said, "I'll pay for 40,000 taels."

After paying the price, he ignored the others and then said to Xu Minger, "Is it a pity that Miss Xu likes this piano but has no money to bid? At that time, I planned to spend 300,000 taels to buy your orchid, but you didn't want to. Instead, I humiliated me and said that my money was dirty. Today, Miss Xu understood that money doesn't matter whether it is dirty or not, it just depends on whether it has or not. If you sold the orchid to me that day, wouldn't it be Ms. Xu's today?"

At this time, there was a strange quietness in the auction hall, and only Fang Shihong was left with the voice of speaking. After Fang Shihong said that, he realized the abnormality.

At this time, Zhu Yingan, who was standing beside him, laughed, "I'm afraid this person is not a fool. Everyone has paid 43,000 taels, but you actually paid 40,000 taels. Hahaha, it's so funny."

Fang Shihong was only concerned about taking revenge on Xu Ming'er before, and did not notice how much the bid was. So he looked at Shi Qian on the auction table with some confusion. Shi Qian said, "Does Mr. Fang want to bid again?"

Fang Shihong was sure that what Zhu Yingan said was the truth, and he snorted with a uglier look, "Fifty thousand taels." After that, he had no face to provoke Xu Ming'er again. He turned around and left, and after a few steps, Fang Shihong turned back and said to Xu Ming'er, "If Miss Xu changes his mind, the pot of Phalaenopsis is still willing to pay 300,000 taels, or after today, when I take a picture of this piano, Miss Xu can exchange it with me with the pot of flowers, otherwise Miss Xu will never have a chance to have this piano."

"Mr. Xie Fang, Ming'er appreciates it." Xu Ming'er said calmly.

After several twists and turns, the scorched tail was finally sold by Fang Shihong at a transaction price of 65,000 taels.

In this way, the total transaction price of Hengyang Academy in three rounds reached 82,600 taels, even exceeding the 12,600 taels of Jidi Academy. If the Jidi Academy, who thought he was sure to win, could not win more than 12,600 taels of Jidi Academy, then he would still lose.

"The fourth item is a Hangu pattern jade bi of Jidi Academy. This jade bi is a high-quality mutton fat jade. There are five types of matte colors. There are two or three types of matte colors. There are fewer four types, and there are none of them in the ten thousand. It is just a little small in size and has not been played with by the plate. It looks dry and dirty. If the jade-knowledgeable person plays with it for several years or decades, the jade material will be revealed and the color mask overflows, the value of this jade bi can be several times higher. The base price of this item is 8,000 taels, and the price is 100 taels each time."

The reserve price of 8,000 taels is still 4,600 taels away from Hengyang Academy, and there is still suspense.

The auctions were the shopkeepers of several jade shops in Liulixiang, as well as several rich people in Beijing who like to play with jade. Those who like to play with jade know how rare the five-crowned mutton fat jade is. It is precisely because this jade bi has no play with it before, so the bidding for less than 10,000 taels is quite fierce.

When the price reaches 11,000 taels, several shopkeepers withdraw, because at this price, they can make money by luck. If the price is good, the price can be doubled. If the price is not good, I am afraid that the money will be lost.

At 12,000 taels, there was only one Yuanwai named Wu and the shopkeeper Zhuang from Chenbaozhai, the largest jade shop in Liuli Lane. And the two of them had to consider each increase in price for a long time. In the end, when the price reached 12,500 taels, Wu Yuanwai gave up the auction.

At this time, the transaction price of Jidi Academy was exactly one hundred taels shorter than that of Hengyang Academy.

Just when Zheng Yanzhi, the head of Hengyang Academy, breathed a sigh of relief, a teacher next to Wang Huixi, the head of Hengyang Academy, raised his hand and said, "Ten thousand two thousand seven hundred taels."

Everyone understands that Jidi Academy is raising prices for itself. Although the practice is a bit shameful, no one can blame him. If any academy changes, it will do this.

The shopkeeper of Chenbaozhaizhuang naturally understood what Hengyang Academy did, so he had to raise his hand again and said, "Ten thousand two thousand eight hundred taels."

The master of Jidi Academy did not bid again, but after all, 300 taels is not a decimal. The 300 taels spent in vain still made the shopkeeper Zhuang complain about Jidi Academy.

In this way, Hengyang Academy still lost and was eliminated.

"One of the next two items is an item from the Imperial College, the "Huangzhou Cold Food Post" by Su Shi of the Song Dynasty. This post is two poems written by Su Shi when he was demoted to Huangzhou in the fifth year of Yuanfeng due to the Wutai poem case. His poems are gloomy and desolate and open-minded. The brush and ink color of calligraphy also change with the changes in the context of the poem, falling, and undulating, and the momentum is extraordinary, reaching a state of perfect writing. If the original works are at a minimum price, it can reach about 28,000 taels, but this one is just a fake."

Shi Qian invited Yang Jing to take this post, which was a fake, and showed it to everyone, "This original is a paper album, and this piece is a hand scroll, and the width is about three or four inches wider than the original. Legend has it that Su Shi was drunk after making this post, so there were some water marks around the handwriting, but this imitation made the water marks imitate it as lines."

After everyone saw it clearly, Shi Qian returned to the auction table and put the items back to the table and continued, "Because the emperor also likes to collect some antiques, he has entered the palace to identify some items for His Majesty. This original work of "Huangzhou Cold Food Post" is one of His Majesty's collections. I am fortunate to see it, so this item is undoubtedly a fake. The base price is 500 taels, and the price is 10 taels each time."

The Imperial College and Jidi Academy are about 40,000 taels apart, and the last thing is a fake. If the Imperial College raises from 500 taels to nearly 40,000 taels, it would be a bit shameless. So the Imperial College gave up the auction, and in the end only two people bid and sold it at a price of 510 taels. At this point, the Imperial College also withdrew from the competition.

"Although the last item provided by Xingzhi Academy is not a fake, the reason why it was placed in the last photo was because it was a bit special. This item is not a literary antique or a rare ancient book. It is just two hand-copied and unmounted poems. Please read it." After that, Shi Qian picked up two poems to show them to everyone.

Everyone sitting there began to whisper when they saw these two hand-copied poems. No one understood what Xingzhi Academy was doing. Did he give up this auction before it even started? Is Xingzhi Academy really noble?

"Brother Yuanting, you will help me in this auction. Brother Erjue, you will also help me. Brother Yuanting helped me get this poem. You will help me raise the price. You will not ask Xingzhi Academy to win this auction, but this poem must be raised to at least ten thousand taels." As soon as the last item was released, Zhang Zhiji pulled Zhu Yingan and Xu Erjue and said.

"Oh? Ziyu actually had this kind of enlightenment?" Zhu Yingan said in surprise. Two worthless poems and essays were to be taken at a huge size of ten thousand taels. Zhu Yingan thought Zhang Zhiji was planning to show love without leaving his name.

"Look carefully. Those poems were written by my cousin before, or by Erjue's sister Xu Dacai. My cousin showed his face to us, shouldn't we help him raise his value?" Zhang Zhiji pointed to the two papers on the auction table and said, in fact, he didn't say the most important thing, one was Zhu Youjian's identity, and the other was that Zhang Zhiji still owe him a skateboarding love.

"Oh, it turns out it's a poem by the Zhu brothers. Don't worry, this matter is covered by me. If I can't shoot it for ten thousand taels, my brother's fat body will be kept for you to satisfy his cravings in the future." Zhu Ying'an patted his chest and promised that, not to mention that Zhu Youjian helped him suppress Fang Shihong's head, even if Zhang Zhiji helped him shoot the book "Lin Huaisu Tie" by Dong Qichang before, he would also take action.

"It's the work of Brother Zhu and my sister, so I naturally have no choice but to do so." Xu Erjue also patted his chest.
