260. Willing to do anything(1/2)

I dragged my female boss into the beauty group and I was exposed. 260 is willing to do anything.

"Chen Ya, when did you change your career? To become a leather craftsman?"

Lu Qianzi was originally listening to Chen Ya's serious science popularization. When she heard Miao Aoxue's words, she turned around with doubts in her eyes: "What leather craftsman?"

"Full-time bragging!" Miao Aoxue chuckled.

Zhou Youfu said: "What does this friend do? He is a porcelain maker in dz?"

"What kind of porcelain master? He's not even a cooking master," Miao Aoxue smiled, her eyes turning into two crescents, "He's bragging, you don't have to pay attention to him."

Miao Aoxue was originally puzzled by her experience in the Fireworks Tower. After going home and watching a few short videos, she suddenly realized that Chen Ya had the support of a noble person behind him.

But you, a short video maker, are talking so loudly about porcelain now, is it too much of a crossover?

Miao Aoxue didn't take her future father-in-law's advice to heart into heart. She felt that Chen Ya had a bit of a nouveau riche mentality, and after making some achievements, he wanted to brag in front of girls.

Lu Qingxuan ignored Miao Aoxue and said to Chen Ya, "How do you know they can do it?"

Chen Ya simply said: "I have been to Ru Kiln."

"What's the normal market price of this kind? I want to buy one." Lu Qingxuan said.

Chen Ya looked at her: "Why did you buy this?"

"I have trouble falling asleep."

"I have to take melatonin if I have trouble falling asleep."

Lu Qingxuan looked annoyed: "I have already developed drug resistance after taking it, otherwise why would I ask this?"

"It's priceless now, so you can't buy it," Chen Ya said, "but if you want it, I'll give it to you later."

Lu Qingxuan was slightly startled. She wanted to ask Chen Ya where he got the qualifications to give things away casually, but in the end she didn't ask.

Miao Aoxue curled her lips, secretly thinking that Chen Ya was pretending again.

Behind him, Guo Menglin leaned over and asked Miao Aoxue: "Do you know that woman?"

Miao Aoxue said: "I know you, that's Lu Qingxuan from the Lu family."

"The Lu family." Guo Menglin nodded, keeping his eyes on Lu Qingxuan, looking at her neck as smooth as porcelain and the black hair on the back of her head.

He likes this one, it looks spicy.

Miao Aoxue supported Guo Menglin and said, "Uncle Guo, do you want this tea bowl?"

Guo Menglin said: "If the price is only more than one million, I might take action, but the good things are yet to come, so I have to save some firepower."

The price quickly rose, and the asking price reached 1.5 million. The bidding was still fierce. Guo Menglin gave up after holding up the sign several times. Zhou Youfu did not hold up the sign once.

The fierce battle at the auction lasted for a long time, and the azure tea bowl finally sold for 2.08 million.

This made Chen Ya quite satisfied.

When this tea bowl was sold to the Queen, she only paid tens of thousands of yuan, and the cost of the tea bowl itself, including labor costs, was only a few thousand yuan.

That’s a lot of money.

"Below is the second lot, a hollow rose ivory folding fan."

As soon as the host finished speaking, the light in the crystal box turned on, and another item appeared in the video.

"This folding fan is carved from pure ivory. When unfolded, you can see the rose flower that represents Britain. You can see that the skilled hands of famous craftsmen have even carved the thorns wrapped around the flower lifelike."

"The Queen of Britain liked this folding fan very much. She wore it when she attended many solemn occasions, such as the funeral of Prince Capet. It also caused a heated discussion on social media in the UK at that time. Few people knew that this folding fan

From China."

"Another point that needs to be emphasized is that the ivory used to make this folding fan was taken from South Yunnan elephants that died of natural causes, so the cost is extremely high. The starting price is 3.2 million."

As soon as he finished speaking, many people raised signs again.

There were slightly fewer people raising placards this time than in the last tea bowl. After all, not everyone is willing to hold an ivory folding fan in their hands, and if you don’t hold it in your hands, there is no point in buying a folding fan to take home.

What's more, the starting price is a bit high.

Guo Menglin patted his leg behind him and said: "It's a pity, it's just a folding fan. I quite like ivory products. If it's a bracelet or dominoes, I can buy one and take it home to make a pair."

In the end, the folding fan was priced at 4.01 million, and Chen Ya felt a little regretful.

The cost of this fan is much higher than that of the bowl. Although it sold for four million, in comparison, it actually didn't make much money.

Next, gold thorn white porcelain fruit plates, Chinese blue handbags, pearl earrings and other items were auctioned. The enthusiasm of the auctioneers was higher than the others.

The girls sitting next to Chen Ya were becoming more and more surprised - this company really has something good.

From their impression, most of the daily necessities used by the Queen of Britain are produced in the UK or by European and American companies.

The products of domestic companies are favored by her, probably because they are "exotic" to the queen, or they are of high quality and low price.

As a result, the following auction items were each more luxurious than the last, and even defeated the opponent in the traditional field.

For example, the "Golden Thorn Fruit Plate" is a fruit plate inlaid with gold, and the gold edge is made into the shape of thorny thorns, so you can get pricked accidentally.

According to the host, the reason for making it in this shape is because in the British court, which pays attention to etiquette, this style of fruit plate can make the younger royal members more disciplined.

Another example is jewelry such as earrings and necklaces. Domestic products always give people the impression of "fake", but Jiang Lizhi's finished products are more exquisite in terms of material and workmanship than what auctioneers have seen elsewhere.

.

"The next lot is different from the previous ones."

When the crystal box lit up, the atmosphere immediately changed, and the host's tone also became slightly excited.

"Everyone, please take a look. The name of this auction is St. George's Dragon-Slaying Jade."

"We know that there are three saints in Britain. The saint who belongs to England is St. George, a military god. His status in foreign countries is equivalent to our Guan Gong."

"His image is generally used in medals and oil paintings. This jade biscuit is carved with his image. It uses raw materials from China and the image of Britain. It can be said to be a very bold attempt."

"The significance of this jade is far greater than its value. After it was given to the royal family as a National Day gift, Queen Britain couldn't put it down and placed it in the middle of the reception hall."

"Later, as an honor, it was presented to the British Royal Guards. It was displayed in the Guards' exhibition room for a period of time, attracting a large number of tourists from all over the world to take photos and discuss it."

"Later, the jade was stolen, which caused shock in the UK and led to ongoing discussions that lasted for several months."

"This incident promoted China's jade culture in disguise and brought jade into Western view. After this incident, the price of China's jade products in the international market has more than tripled."

"Later, after many twists and turns, this jade was returned to the hands of our consignor Jiang Lizhi, so this time it was put on the auction stage together with the Queen's belongings."

"Saint George's Dragon-Slaying Jade, the starting price is 31.2 million!"

There was an uproar at the venue, as this was the item with the highest starting price so far in this auction.

The previous items were available to ordinary private individuals, but starting from this one, they are no longer available to ordinary players.

But the value of this jade is indeed worth it. Not only is it of high quality and exquisite, but the story attached to it is also legendary.

The most important thing is that it is like a biological father to some domestic jade merchants.

The price of jade has never been high in foreign countries, but after the "St. George Slaying the Dragon Jade" was stolen that year, not only the Royal Guards were complained about by the British from top to bottom, but the jade also became popular.

, and even the jade culture has become popular.

Some overseas jade merchants took advantage of this trend and took off immediately. Some of them made a lot of money directly. They were extremely grateful to this jade and the thieves who stole it.

At the auction venue, many people raised placards one after another, and even Guo Menglin was a little eager to try.

After all, moving this jade home is equivalent to bringing the face of the British Royal Guards back home, which sounds very respectable.

Xia You leaned on Chen Ya and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you just say that only that handbag was a gift? Wasn't this thing also a gift?"

After hearing this, Chen Ya chuckled.

Xia You thought of something and asked: "Wait a minute, it was stolen. How did it appear in your hands?"

Chen Ya smiled and said nothing.

Xia You was stunned for a long time before whispering: "So insidious."

She was shocked by the cunningness of the adult world.

The St. George Dragon Slaying Jade was finally sold at a very high price. The buyer was half heartbroken and half happy to take the jade into his bag, but when the next lot came out, he was dumbfounded again.

"The following is the final reveal of the mysterious auction items, a total of three items: the Queen's pink diamond flower brooch, the Queen's 12-carat pink diamond ring, and the final trump item: the Queen's ruby ​​crown."

"First of all, let's start with the brooch. Apart from the brooch that the Queen wore when she ascended the throne, this brooch is the largest brooch in the Queen's collection, and it is also the brooch she wore when she attended the last event."

"As we all know, the Queen has a special love for brooches. This brooch that stayed with her until the end may also have a special meaning for her."

"The starting price is 11.5 billion yuan."

The scene shook again.

If the jade jade in front is the entry point for high-end players, then starting from this brooch, it really stops.

After Lu Qianzi saw the three collections, especially the twinkling lights on the two pieces of pink diamond jewelry, she grabbed Chen Ya's arm next to her and screamed softly:

"I've never seen such a big diamond before!"

"And it's still a pink diamond." Lu Qingxuan also said.

She squinted her eyes and looked at the stage. Even the most aloof woman would inevitably find it hard to control herself when faced with jewelry of this level.
To be continued...
