Chapter 425 The Undersea Auction

After the twelve elders left, Vidoo suddenly revealed a news to Hong Tianbao that there would be an underground auction soon and asked if Hong Tianbao was interested. Duke Vidoo mainly considered that there were often Chinese cultural relics in these auctions, so even if Hong Tianbao did not participate, he would send someone to participate and take all Chinese cultural relics in the market.

"Auction? What kind of nature? What happens in normal times?" asked Hong Tianbao.

"It was held by a secret organization. This organization has a history of more than two hundred years and is powerful, but it is not difficult to destroy them if it cannot be compared with our secret alliance. They only hold it once a year, and there are many strange things inside. Almost every time, there will be Chinese cultural relics appearing." Vidoo told the truth.

Hong Tianbao nodded and said, "Okay! Go and see." After hearing the four strange and strange words, Hong Tianbao was interested. If Vidoo only talked about Chinese cultural relics, Hong Tianbao might not have gone there yet. Because he knew that the cultural relics of his country would appear, the blood clan would definitely take pictures or even snatch them back.

"Okay, I'll prepare right away. By the way, do you need other places?" Vidoo suddenly remembered that everyone in the treasure room was very interested in cultural relics.

Hong Tianbao remembered the little witch and others and said, "Then get two or three more places!" He also knew that these underground auctions often give quotas to enter.

Vidoo immediately asked someone to get things done, and Hong Tianbao returned to the treasure room, and everyone was in full swing to sort out the huge amount of treasures.

"Where did you go just now? I didn't find you." Tang Xin asked.

"Go out and find out that there will be an underground auction later. Will you go?" Hong Tianbao notified them.

"Auction? Go, why don't you go?" Tang Xin suddenly became excited. This girl was very crazy when she spent money, and Hong Tianbao had seen it a long time ago.

"What auction?" Mr. Yan did not immediately reply. In his opinion, if it was a general auction, it would be meaningless. If there were frequent auctions of Chinese cultural relics, it would definitely be a look, otherwise it would be a sin.

"It seems to be a Black Alliance auction, I heard from Duke Vidoo that this auction is only held once a year..."

Before Hong Tianbao finished speaking, Director Ding jumped up and said in surprise: "Hei League Auction? Go, we all go. Every year, this auction will bring out some precious national treasures from our country. But I heard that it is very difficult to enter, and even if you have money, you may not be able to enter. Tianbao can get a quota?"

"Duke Vidoo is dealing with this matter, so there should be no problem. This is how it goes! I will go and have a look with the little witch, Director Ding and the four old men." Hong Tianbao said.

Others knew that this place was hard to find. They didn't go with them. There were so many treasures here, so they were busy.

Half an hour later, Duke Vidoo approached Hong Tianbao and said that the quota had been determined. He had obtained a total of seven places, including four of Hong Tianbao, as well as him, Victor, and Prince Weis.

"Everyone get in the car! The auction starts an hour later. We'll just arrive." Vidoo said.

After about an hour, the car actually came to the beach. Vidoo explained: "This time they were held at the underwater hotel, and few people know about this hotel. Ordinary guests will not be welcomed."

Everyone suddenly realized that after getting off the train, Vidoo led everyone to take the automatic train to leave the beach, cross a long underwater passage, and soon arrived at the hotel's hospitality lobby.

At this time, the living room was filled with people, with more than 300 people. According to Vidoo's introduction, the people who entered here were celebrities from all over the world. Those present were either rich or powerful.

Hong Tianbao observed the entire hall. The top of the hall is a circular arch, and a layer of glass is above. Through the glass, you can see the sea fish above swimming back. There are also transparent glass at your feet, and you can see the beautiful coral reefs below. Outside around, there are four pillars emitting strange light, which seem to be the pillars that fix the entire underwater hotel.

Prince Weis also introduced that this hotel has tens of thousands of square meters, thirty-eight rooms, one dance hall, one casino, four undersea sightseeing platform, and the hospitality hall where it is now located. It is also the largest part, and can accommodate up to 500 people. If you enter this hotel, you will have a minimum consumption of 100,000 pounds.

Hong Tianbao's group immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. Duke Vidoo and Prince Weis are very famous, and many people inside know each other. They were not surprised to see these two people. What interested them were the four Chinese people next to them. They had not seen Chinese people here for a long time. They didn't know what identities of these four people were, and even Prince Weis accompanied them.

Vidoo's pupils shrank slightly, and he found that his old opponent, Zhan Mosi. Zhan Mosi was from the Magic Banquet Alliance. His strength was similar to his own, but now he is different from the past. Now this old guy is no longer his opponent, and even said that he is not his opponent.

Zhan Mosi frowned when he saw Vidoo and others. He found that Vidoo seemed to have become stronger again now. Seeing Hong Tianbao, he widened his eyes. It was impossible for him not to know this pervert. He was killed by him. In particular, the ninjas in Japan were even more unlucky to his grandma's house. They were almost uprooted, forcing the ninja village that was hidden in Japan to be born, causing changes in the world.

Hong Tianbao glanced at Zhan Mosi, and his cold eyes made Zhan Mosi feel as if he was under an ice cave. His body trembled and he quickly withdrew his eyes. However, his heart was shocked and he was full of vigor. She had known for a long time that this person was very strong. But she didn't expect that he would be so strong that he could kill him with just one look.

At this time, he felt deeply wrong and was wondering how to escape. He was not interested in this auction at all, and he just hoped to escape.

Everyone who was familiar with Duke Vitoo and Prince Vis stood up and greeted the two. Duke Vitoo and Prince Vis just nodded and did not have deep friendships.

After everyone sat down, they waited for the start of the auction.

The organizer did not let everyone wait for a long time. There was no way. None of the guests present was easy to mess with, and it would be very fatal to offend anyone casually.

A bald old ghost walked up to the auction table with a pair of reading glasses, raised his hands to calm everyone down, and then said, "Hello everyone, guests! I am Jill who hosted the auction this time, and everyone is familiar with it. I don't talk nonsense, and I'm wasting everyone's time. OK! Now, I announce the start of the auction!"

There was a burst of applause below. After the applause, the other party immediately held the first auction item on stage. The sexy Western beauty was very pleasing to the eye, and her delicate fingers lifted the red cloth covering it.

It was a blue gem with a big fist and a flat round shape, shining under the light. The woman present suddenly opened her eyes wide and stared at the gem on it.

"This is a precious gem of sea heart, priceless. The base price is 10 million. The price is no less than 500,000 each time, start!" Jill was not like the usual auctioneers, and he talked a lot.

"Haha! At the beginning, they were all ordinary items, and some good things might appear behind them." Vidoo couldn't help but say when he saw that Hong Tianbao was a little disappointed.

Hong Tianbao was a little excited, but the little witch was energetic. This Haixin Gem was indeed a treasure, otherwise how could the lowest price be 10 million? After a fight, the Haixin Gem had exceeded 20 million euros.

"Okay! The lady on my left pays 20 million. Is there any higher one? If not, this rare treasure belongs to this beautiful lady. The first time 20 million!..."

"Two one million!" Tang Xin said.

Mr. Yan and others looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They knew that this girl would definitely go crazy when she threw the money.

The mature woman looked at Tang Xin in surprise. Although there were Duke Vidoo and Prince Vis next to her, she still wanted to compete for it. She really liked this gem.

"Two two million!"

"Two five million!" As soon as the mature woman spoke, Tang Xin simply increased the price by three million. This spirit made many people take a breath and throw out 25 million euros in one breath. If it was exchanged for Chinese currency, it would be more than 200 million. The woman didn't blink. Even if they were, they would have to consider it! This world is indeed still a woman, especially a beautiful woman, and it is easy to make money.

Hearing Tang Xin's desperate style of shooting, the mature woman could only sigh. Although she could still give a higher price, the Duke of Vidoo and Prince Vis next to her put some pressure on her.

"Two five million! This oriental beauty has paid 25 million. Is there any higher one? Two five million for the first time..." Finally, with the sound of three hammers from Jill, this sea heart gem became Tang Xin's legitimately.

Next are some weird auction items, such as scepters, giant swords with two hands, biological secretions, etc.

The scepter is said to be the scepter of the marshal in the Napoleon era. Everyone competed for it very well, and Napoleon's reputation was too great.

In the glorious era of sweeping across Europe, Napoleon's soldiers gave the world a puzzle: Why are they better than soldiers from other European countries, who are also ordinary soldiers?

In a world with strict hierarchy and huge differences in high and low status, they are not nobles or officers, but just some soldiers with low status. The positive attitude and fearless spirit they show on the battlefield both shocked their opponents.

Generals of all countries in that era once commented: These guys are all as proud as kings! Napoleon himself once declared so proudly: My corporal is more than enough to be a captain in any army! Those European nobles racked their brains and couldn't understand: What force made the French peasants, shoemakers, urban vagrants all perform unparalleled on the battlefield, and turned into a terrible force that made the whole of Europe feel scared?

It turns out that the secret lies in this marshal's scepter. As long as the military achievements are sufficient, Napoleon will promote the general marshal with the marshal's scepter. Let me ask: Doesn't that soldier want to be a general marshal?

Finally, the marshal's scepter was shot away by a Frenchman.

The giant sword with both hands is said to have come from the Greek era. Victor seemed to like it very much, so he took a photo.

Later, two fine porcelains from China appeared, one in the Ming Dynasty color glazed porcelain and the other in the Qing Dynasty sculpture porcelain fair cup. Director Ding naturally participated in the shooting, but he was much more rational than the little witch and had to take it down at the minimum price.

The glaze porcelain of color is colorful and crystal clear. It is known as the "artificial gem" and is one of the four traditional famous porcelains in the porcelain capital. Its red glaze is gorgeous, the green glaze is pure and elegant, the yellow glaze is bright and clear, and the flower glaze is mottled and elegant. The crystal glaze is even more varied, bursting out delicious flowers of different sizes, with clusters of flowers and radiant radiance. The wonderful artistic effect is indescribable.

As the name suggests, sculpture porcelain is an artwork that is made of solid ceramics through sculpture, referred to as porcelain sculpture. Its production requires multiple manual processes such as molding, inlaying, carving, piled, shaping, and carving to complete it after high-temperature refining. Due to different operating methods, it can be divided into round carving, piled carving, carving, relief, carving, inlay, carving, etc.

Ceramic sculpture has a long history, dating back to more than 1,400 years ago. In the Sui Dynasty, lions, elephants and big beasts were presented to the palace. During the Song Dynasty, the sculpture arts of ceramics, horses, stone carvings, clay sculptures and other sculpture arts were absorbed to improve their skills. Many exquisitely carved porcelain Buddha statues appeared in the Ming Dynasty. They were quite famous. The hollow heart-turning bottles and righteous cups in the Qing Dynasty were all famous porcelain carving products.

Because of Duke Vitoo and Prince Vis, the Chinese porcelain, which has always been fiercely contested, is much deserted this time, which makes Director Ding easily get the two treasures.

This made Jill a little depressed. But there was nothing we could do about it, and the auction had to continue.

Just when Hong Tianbao was about to doze off, the sexy beauty brought out a volume of calligraphy, which was a poem called "There is a painting in the poem".

"This is a precious calligraphy from China, made by Liu Gongquan, a famous artist in the Tang Dynasty. The starting price is 5 million, and the price is no less than 100,000 yuan each time." Jier said again.

Hong Tianbao's spiritual sense locked the characters tightly. Or paintings. He found that there was really a painting hidden in the poem, and the content of the painting was a starry sky. The paper seemed to be painted with some kind of pigment, and the ink was not ordinary ink. According to the information sent by Luobao's money, the two materials would be shining when they arrived in the dark.

This reminded Hong Tianbao of a person, who was Wu Daozi of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Wu Daozi was the largest painter in the Tang Dynasty in China. He was later revered as the "saint of painting" and was respected by folk painters as his ancestor. He created the "sparse body" of landscapes with distant brushes, making landscapes the best painting type. Thus ending the vassal status of landscapes as only the background of figure paintings. The characters he painted were floating and vigorous, and were known as water shield strips. It has the effect of flying clothes and winding all over the walls. He is known as Wu Biao in the wind. He also used light colors in the burnt ink lines, and was known as Wu Clothing.

A painting inside reminds Hong Tianbao of a story.

One evening, Wu Daozi, the "Painting Saint", came back from Xinzheng Liduishan to see the scenery. He passed by a thatched house. The sound of spun cotton came from inside, but he didn't see the lights in the house, which made him feel strange.

The next morning, Wu came to the thatched house. An old woman with white hair came out and asked him to sit in the house and invited him to have tea. Wu took the tea and asked, "Do you recognize me?" The old woman said, "Recognize me, I went to the street to sell strings. I heard that you are Wu Painting Craftsmen, and I said you are a good man and don't be as favorable to the rich and the government." Wu nodded and asked again, "How many people do you have in your family?" The old woman said sadly: "My husband died early. A few years ago, my son died of illness. I, the lonely woman, rely on spinning cotton to sell strings and sticking to my mouth."

Wu Daozi sighed and asked again, "Why don't you light the lamp when you spin cotton at night?" The old woman said with tears in her eyes: "Mr. Wu, I keep spinning day and night, and the money I earned can't afford to live, eat and dress. How can I buy oil and light the lamp? It has been three years since my son died." Wu Daozi thought for a while and said, "Old man, your life is very hard, and I can't help you. Let's draw a picture." The old woman was very happy.

Wu Daozi grinded the paper and started painting. He first threw the pen dipped ink onto the paper, and many shiny dots immediately appeared on the paper. Then he gently applied the dots with a pen, and finally drew a circle in the blank space and then painted it as if it was done.

He said to the old woman, "It will be useful if you put this painting in the house." Although the old woman couldn't see what was being painted, she firmly believed that Wu Daozi was a good person and would not lie to her. She happily took the painting, and then took out a handful of threads from the head of the bed and said to Wu, "Mr. Wu, I don't know how to repay you, so I will send the threads to you for the pen and ink!" Wu Daozi said, "I'm drawing for money, not for money. If it's for money, I won't even be able to draw a thousand taels of silver. You'd better keep the threads and exchange rice!" After that, he packed up the painting tools and left.

The old woman carefully posted the painting on the wall in front of the spinning wheel. It was dark, and the old woman found that the painting was a blue sky with countless stars shining on it. A round moon shone the house as bright as the daytime. Since then, at night, the stars and moon on the paintings shine, and it is much more convenient for the old woman to spin the rays of the stars and the moon than before.

Hong Tianbao breathed a sigh of relief, and he was basically sure that this was the legendary painting "Starlight Picture" in the legendary painting Saint Wu Daozi.

"This is Liu Gongquan's work? Why haven't I heard of it? Judging from its writing style, it seems to be the original work." Director Ding frowned.

Mr. Yan stared at the meeting before nodding and said, "It should be that he has many works, and it is not surprising that some of them are lost in history. If it is appropriate, you can take pictures. It is unnecessary to be too expensive."

"No! We must take a photo, let's talk about the reason when we go back." Hong Tianbao said firmly.

Hearing Hong Tianbao's words, Mr. Yan and others were shocked, and then looked at the words again. Mr. Yan soon discovered some problems. The thickness of the paper made people doubt it. He also realized that there was still a universe inside. Thinking of this, he was also a little excited while looking forward to it. He secretly looked at Hong Tianbao and thought that this kid was still as thief as ever, and no trick could escape his discovery.!~!
