This auction took the parliamentary form, with buyer nominations and one buyer's proposal to enter the auction process, and those who were not nominated failed to be auctioned. British and French generals believed that Shanghai was not the best auction place and regretted agreeing to auction here first, so they hoped that most of the items would be auctioned, and generally set a very high starting price: one thousand pounds.

According to the amount of margin, the priority of the buyer's front row to the back row was reduced in turn, but the buyers in the first row were very patient. Someone raised his hand in the first round, and a buddy in the second row received the first nomination: Rong Sheng Chime.

Rong Sheng is the master of Jin State, the minister of Jin State. Because the chimes have well-preserved inscriptions on them, he can know many details of them. The nominated French buyer is very interested in Chinese classical instruments, and this antique is really ancient, a treasure from 740 BC and 2,600 years ago, and it looks very good.

Bronze ware is a transitional stage in three eras divided by historians into human history, namely: stone tools, bronze tools, and iron tools. The Stone Age was an ancient era, and even some smart animals knew how to use stones to do something, and knowing how to cast bronze ware would definitely be humans' affairs. The Bronze Age was first seen in the Near East Sumerian civilization in 4th thousand BC. However, there are very few records of where humans collect copper. The inscription of this chime records that copper production in a place called "Fan Tang" at that time.

"Rongsheng" and "Fantang", listening to this name full of primitive civilization, a strong smell of ancient Chinese civilization hits the face. This cultural relic can be regarded as a national weapon.

The French buddy was lucky and took down the heavy equipment for only 1,500 pounds.

Foreign buyers in Shanghai especially like the works of a painter named Lang Shining. He is from Milan, Italy, but the legendary one is that Lang Shining came to China all the way and became the court painter of the three emperors of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong. It happened to be the era when the construction of the Old Summer Palace was built. Even the blueprints of the Old Summer Palace were painted by him. Because Lang Shining's style is Western and more in line with European aesthetics, foreigners in Shanghai will feel particularly pleasing to the eyes. However, if it is an appreciation of the West, people will not pay much attention to the artistic style introduced from the West to the East.

Lang Shining's most vivid image is the painting horse. His most representative work "Hundred Horses Picture" has also become the popular target in this auction. Even Princess Louise fell in love with it and turned her head to Tangning and said, "Can I buy it?"

At this time, "Hundred Horses" had soared to 5,000 pounds, and might win the top spot in the auction.

This painting depicts the scene of hundreds of horses with different postures hanging out. The whole scroll has a rich color, complex composition, unique style, and unique interest. There are a total of one hundred horses, and the sword and BMW are given to heroes. In ancient times, the heroes who fought for war loved the most was a BMW that was like Lu Bu's Red Rabbit Horse, which had such a good meaning.

Since His Royal Highness said, the rich duke naturally would not disappoint her, and the price was increased to 6,000 pounds at once. A British buddy who particularly liked this painting was dissatisfied and added a few more times. In the end, the rich duke bought it for a huge amount of 7,000 pounds. In the future, no one wants to compete with the rich, and they all have idiotic strategies to add one thousand at a time.

The treasures inlaid with gems are also loved by the rich people of Shanghai. The rare emperor-specific cup "Jinou Yonggu Cup", a rare emperor-specific cup in the Qing Dynasty palace, was also sought after. The elephant trunk is used as the foot, which means the territory of the Qing Dynasty and the regime is forever solid. The mouth of the cup is cast with "Jinou Yonggu" and "made in the Qianlong period" seal script; the whole body is engraved with tangled flowers, and dozens of huge pearls, red, sapphires and pink tourmalines are inlaid with double-standing Kui ears on both sides, and one pearl is embedded in each of the Kui dragon heads; the bottom is the head of the three elephants, which is a tripod-shaped appearance.

The Golden Bowl Yonggu Cup is inlaid with 11 pearls of large and small sizes. Two of the main pearls are creamy and white and shiny in color, with a diameter of more than 10mm, which is the best among pearls. The other 9 are also top-grade round beads with a diameter of more than 5mm. The Golden Bowl Yonggu Cup is inlaid with red and 21 sapphires, all of which are high-quality Burmese red and sapphires. Some of them are magical starlight, starlight ruby ​​and starlight sapphires, which are actually the best among gems! The Golden Bowl Yonggu Cup is inlaid with 4 tourmalines, red to pink. They are all the most valuable "double peach red" tourmalines.

The foreigners finally auctioned this Emperor Cup for 5,500 pounds, and the current price was close to the Baijun Picture that the little princess liked.

After watching for a while, the wealthy businessmen in Shanghai in China finally couldn't help but speak out. Someone called out the name of the famous work "The Goddess of Luo River". The Goddess of Luo River is Cao Zhi's famous work, which fictionalizes the author's encounter and the Goddess of Luo River and their longing and love. The Goddess of Luo River is extremely beautiful, and the love between humans and gods is vague and confused, but because of the different ways of humans and gods, they cannot combine, and finally express infinite sadness and melancholy.

The "Lotus Goddess Fu Picture" is based on Cao Zhi's poem. The author is the famous painter Gu Kaizhi. He is good at poetry and calligraphy. He was called "excellent talent, outstanding painting, and stunning". The famous scholars in the Eastern Jin Dynasty were the pinnacle, so the "Lotus Fu Picture" is quite famous. This masterpiece like Tangning, which was looked down upon by local tyrants in the Qing Dynasty, became a masterpiece that the natives of the Qing Dynasty scrambled to bid, and finally soared to a high price of 5,800 pounds. It actually surpassed the Golden Bowl Yonggu Cup, which was loved by foreign rich people, which was really amazing.

The market of Gu Kaizhi's works established a strong position in "The Goddess of Luo River". Later, the long scroll of "The Proverbs of the Female Historian" was also shot at a high price of 4,600 pounds. It seems that the enthusiasm of the native tyrants is higher than that of the foreign tyrants.

Finally, it was Song Huizong's turn. The rough soldiers got two of his works in total, one was a copy of "The Daoxuan Picture" by Song Huizong. The original work was Zhang Xuan, a painter of the Tang Dynasty. It depicts the scene of urban women in Tang Dynasty pounding, rectifying lines, ironing, and sewing labor operations. The characters in the painting are concentrating and natural, and the details are vivid, allowing people to see the slightest retreat and leaning back when pulling silk, showing the author's observation. The lines are fine and vigorous, and the colors are rich. The "rich body" character shapes show the typical style of the Tang Dynasty ladies' paintings. Song Huizong's copy is a recognized representative work of fine-brushed figure paintings in the Song Dynasty and a rare treasure of ancient Chinese calligraphy and painting.

However, this is not something Tang Ning likes. He always feels that the characters in the paintings of Chinese masters are not beautiful, and he prefers another subject, which is another painting "Five-Colored Parrot". It's okay that the parrot with thick ink and heavy colors. The thin gold body on the right side of the picture is really well written, and it is definitely unique.

"The five-color parrot comes from the ridge of the ridge of the banned medicine to tame the cute Feiming self-adaptive..." Although Tang Ning has not even recognized the words now, let alone the sentences, he still likes them quite well. Maybe he would urge his subordinates to make a set of thin gold fonts for the Chinese typewriter to show his unique taste. He never was afraid of the fact that Song Huizong was the king of the country's destruction. Instead, he felt that if he had not been addicted to the cost of the country's destruction, Zhao Ji would never have such artistic attainments.

Obviously, there are many local tyrants who like Song Huizong. The five-color parrot hit a new high. The last decisive sound of the super local tyrant duke was: 8,000 pounds. There were many shouts. Ah, it surpassed the "Hundred Horses" that the little princess liked, and it was created by the Grand Duke Windsor again.

"Good painting!" Lin Feier was happy for Tangning. She could see that Tangning liked the five-color parrot because it seemed that this was his only move.

The bidding war continued, Linfell quietly said to Faraday: "Dad, Tangning said I would choose whatever I want. As Lord Daddy, would you not want to buy the same for me?"

Faraday understood it, but it was only a few thousand pounds. Now our family has money, so he smiled and said, "Okay, you can choose the same one, sweetheart!"

Linfei said happily, "Thank you, Lord Daddy!" He also pouted his mouth and kissed his father's face. An ulterior motive flashed in his bright eyes. Faraday seemed to feel bad, but he couldn't think of what the problem was, and his heart was upset.

After a while, Faraday forgot about his hidden worries. Linfiel bought a piece of jade called "Baohe Taihe" and spent 1,200 pounds. No one knew why she liked this Kangxi imperial seal. In fact, she liked the sentence "The first common people came out, and all countries were in peace." It means that the leader came from the common people to bring peace to the world, which was just used to describe Tangning, the "common people". It just so happened that his Chinese name really had the word "ning"! What a coincidence.

Lin Feier could not have such strong knowledge of the Book of Changes. Of course, these were written when the lot was announced. "Preserve the good and the good things are the first to be born, and all the countries are still alive." She also specifically asked the old scholar what this means.

The auction will last up to 3 days, three hours a day, and no one will be nominated in the end, so the show will end. Finally, the host will ask: "I want to ask everyone here, do you mean to buy the entire Old Summer Palace?"

At this time, all eyes were staring at the rich and powerful Duke, but the Duke looked at his nose and nose, as if he hadn't heard it, and it seemed that he was not ready to start. Just kidding, now the French have circulated the story of him holding the Chinese emperor hostage, so he dared not buy a garden in a high profile. Even if he had this plan, he would have to cancel it.

Shanghai adventurers from China and abroad expressed their disappointment.

The auctioneer was still talking dutifully: "The Summer Palace is packaged as a whole, including most of the royal items, with a base price of 600 million pounds! A deposit of 600,000 pounds. (http:///.). At the end of the auction every day, I will ask the guests present, and everyone has a chance tomorrow! Today's auction will be everywhere..."

Suddenly, a snow-white little hand was raised, and a clear and beautiful girl shouted loudly: "I'll buy the Old Summer Palace!"

There was a sudden riot at the scene.

Ah! My little ancestor! Tangning quickly took down Linfell's raised little hand, and a pile of cold sweat flowed down his and Faraday's faces. The little princess Louise burst out laughing.

Tangning just pressed her left hand down, and Linfell raised her right hand without discouragement, and her voice became louder and more powerful: "I, Alice Faraday, want to buy the Old Summer Palace. Just now, Downing Windsor and my father Michael Faraday promised me that I could choose the same thing at will. I don't care who they paid, but in short, I want to buy the Old Summer Palace. What promised me must do, and it's a puppy if I don't keep my word!"
