I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier

Chapter 443 Unimaginable Price



Lin Yaru turned her head and whispered to Ye Chen.

"Of course, an item with a reserve price of only 5 million, now, has actually tripled. Let me ask, how could it possibly have reached this value?"

"I just got a rough understanding of the background of this thumb ring, and I also searched online for its market value. It should not exceed 10 million. If it goes over 10 million, then it must be a losing deal."

"I guess that young man probably hasn't participated in an auction before, didn't you see? The person next to him looks like a butler. He has been on the phone, seemingly in contact with someone."

"If he really doesn't buy this item, then this time he's probably going to lose face big time. Plus, the deposit he paid earlier would be impossible to get back."

"Never mind, but why do I feel like this Yang Wenyu really seems nasty? If it wasn't for him deliberately driving up the price here, maybe he would not have bought it for such a high price."

"That's unknown, this might just be one of their competitive tactics. Let's continue watching, there might be even more exciting stuff coming up."

As she spoke, she just nodded her head, and finally, she turned her attention back to the stage.

"Alright, we are now presenting the 2nd auction item. This product was also previously purchased from an overseas Chinese. It is a Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain. Please take a close look."

This is a very beautiful vase,

Indeed, the vase looks very dazzling, and under the light, it appears particularly vibrant.

The patterns on it are very clear. After so many years, it seems that there has been no fading at all.

"Did he say this is from the Qing Dynasty?"

"Yes, it's from the Qing Dynasty."

"My goodness, it's been almost a thousand years since the Qing Dynasty until now. How can this still be so well preserved? Do you see? It seems to have not a single flaw."

"Yes, such flawless blue and white porcelain does exist, it's just that we rarely see them. After so many years, certainly there should be some defects. To be this perfect without a single flaw, it's really a rare treasure."

"That means, this item should be worth a lot of money, right?"

"Well, I'm not very knowledgeable about this, but as far as I know, the final transaction price is probably only a few million yuan, and it won't go over ten million."

"Okay, let everyone carefully appreciate this blue and white porcelain. The observant ones can see that there are basically no defects at all. Therefore, the starting price for this one is also 5 million yuan."

After saying that, the crowd indeed burst into an uproar.

Even if a blue and white porcelain vase is from the Qing Dynasty, and even if it is from the official kilns, the estimate for the starting price would probably be around 1 million or so.

And now, it's a whole 5 times higher, which is a clear indication that this item must be worth a fortune.

"Hehe, starting bid of 5 million, seems like we really must not underestimate this one," Lin Yaru said with a smile beside him.

Anyway, Ye Chen couldn't understand, whether the starting bid was 5 million or 50 million, it didn't mean much to him.

He just turned around for a look but did not find Li Fu's figure here.

When will Li Fu's treasure be presented? And after he auctions his collection, they can then leave.

But why hasn't he appeared yet?

"5.5 million."

"6 million."

"6.5 million."

"7 million."

"Good, 7 million. Any further bids? 7 million for the first time, 7 million for the second time, 7 million for the third time, sold."

In the end, the blue and white porcelain vase was successfully sold for 7 million.

He looked at the buyer of this vase, it appeared to be an old man, and even his beard and hair were completely white.

Moreover, he was accompanied by several assistants, obviously also a well-known entrepreneur. He probably has quite some research in antique collecting.

"7 million, how about that?"

"Not bad, after all, with no flaws, 7 million is a very worthwhile price. Do you know that person? He's the Sixth Master from Southern City."

"Sixth Master from Southern City? I don't know him?"

"In the past, he started with small trades, and only had a street snack stall. But now, he has gradually become the largest food chain restaurant company in Jiangzhou City, one could say it's quite large scale."

"No wonder, 7 million for a vase, that's something unimaginable for me."

"That's for sure. Let me tell you, some things you can't possibly imagine are all achievable for them, you know?"

"Anyway, it doesn't concern me. I'm just waiting to leave here after Mr. Li's items are auctioned off later. Honestly, sitting here, I already feel kind of sleepy."

While talking, Ye Chen yawned deeply. For someone who disliked these things, it was simply a kind of torture.

But for Lin Yaru, she seemed very interested in today's auction.

"Okay, let's take a look at our 5th auction item today; it's a Ming Dynasty Yuan blue and white piece."

As the auctioneer spoke, he placed the item out there, and instantly, Ye Chen recognized it. Yes, it was indeed from Li Fu.

Li Fu had once said this item could be worth a billion yuan, but Ye Chen was unsure if such a sum could really be achieved.

Just now, a blue and white porcelain vase went for 8 million in an auction. So, if it were true, could it really reach 1 billion, ten times more?

"Please take a careful look. This is a highly exquisite Yuan blue and white piece, and after being fired in the official kiln at the time, it was a unique, unparalleled piece. Therefore, the starting price for this vase is 30 million."

Sure enough, its chess value was so high, and the price of 30 million could probably mean that the increments in the later bids would likely be around 5 million each.
