Seeing the glowing eyes of the man from Xiangjiang, and looking at Lot 38, Jin Muchen's heart was bursting with joy. It turned out that these are just two knives that a fart doesn't understand. antique.

When he was browsing before, he also paid attention to those export porcelains. I have to say that those export porcelains are really beautiful in terms of style and pastel patterns on them, and some of them can even be said to be the fine products of export porcelain.

And almost % of the exported porcelain has jewels flashing over it, which shows that those export porcelains are antiques.

However, there were also a few pieces of porcelain in the past, and no jewels flashed on them. What does this mean?

This shows that these porcelains are not antiques, and may even be modern imitations and handicrafts.

And now this pastel porcelain plate on the auction stage is just one of them. According to Jin Muchen's estimation, this piece should be an export handicraft in recent years, but the workmanship is really beautiful and the style of painting is very beautiful. , but because it is not an antique, it is a handicraft, so it should be only a few dozen yuan, but the price of a hundred or ten yuan.

Looking at the expression of the Xiangjiang man beside him, his eyes seemed to be protruding, Jin Muchen felt that he should stimulate him a few words at this time.

"Humph! I dare to say that others, I haven't photographed it myself. Some people may have so much money, but unfortunately they are all wearing them, for fear that others will not know. The poor and the poor of the nouveau riche?"

Although the voice is not loud, it can be guaranteed that the Xiangjiang person next to him can hear it. After speaking, Jin Muchen deliberately turned his head and made a dismissive expression.

And the people from Xiangjiang who heard his words were so angry that they blushed and had a thick neck. They turned their heads and looked at Jin Muchen fiercely. At this time, Jin Muchen smiled disdainfully.

"Why are your eyes so big? You kind of take a picture of the porcelain plate in front of you?"

"Bad boy? Just let you open your eyes!"

The Xiangjiang person almost gnashed his teeth and said to Jin Muchen, while Jin Muchen still smiled disdainfully, but this time, the Xiangjiang person felt that he was almost exasperated!

With a cold snort, he turned his head and stared at the porcelain plate on the stage, as if he was determined to win!

Candace looked at Jin Muchen without knowing it, while Jin Muchen smiled at her: "Wait, please watch a good show!"

Just now, Jin Muchen and the Xiangjiang person spoke Chinese in Chinese, and she couldn't understand it, but just by looking at the Xiangjiang person's attitude towards Jin Muchen, she knew that the guy was not a good person.

There must have been some bad things happening between the two of them just now. Thinking about the sneering eyes this guy looked at him before, Candace hated this Xiangjiang person more and more. In a blink of an eye, he just saw that guy I don't know if it was a car key with a Mercedes-Benz logo that was deliberately exposed outside a pair of pockets, Candace rolled his eyes.

"Honey, I'm going to the bathroom!"

"Oh! Well, you go, I'll be waiting for you here."

Jin Muchen was on fire and wanted to compete with this Xiangjiang native.

"The next lot, No. 38, is a large pastel porcelain plate with a diameter of 35 cm. It is huge in size, beautiful in appearance and complete in appearance. The pastel pattern on it is even more colorful. The picture is a picture of a farmer picking fruit. A type of spectator favored by noble families of the eighteenth century..."

Josh Bentley above is chattering about this porcelain plate, and what he said is like it. I don't know if he really doesn't know the details of this porcelain plate, and the antique dealers below are also All silent.

"Okay, the starting price of this lot is 500 US dollars, and the price will be increased by 100 US dollars each time. There is no upper limit, and the auction will start now!"

Josh announced the start of the auction, but the auction actually had its first cold session, and many antique dealers did not raise their hands. It seems that these people are really real, and can detect that there is a problem with this auction.

And at this time, Jin Muchen suddenly raised his hand, and Josh's eyes lit up.

"Six hundred dollars, all right, the gentleman offered six hundred dollars! Are there any bidders?"

Jin Muchen's raising of his hand surprised the Xiangjiang man beside him and turned his head to look at him. Jin Muchen just turned his head and looked at him with a contemptuous smile.

"Look at it? You dress like a nouveau riche, but you just talk and don't practice, what kind of clothes do you wear? I don't know how many pho in Chinatown to get this dress? Uncle, don't learn from others if you don't have money. Buy antiques, or go back and sell your pho!"

The originally thin neck of this Xiangjiang native suddenly thickened, and the originally scorched face flushed red, and then he raised his right hand fiercely.

Seeing this guy bite the hook, Jin Muchen smiled in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, just raised his right hand indifferently again. . .

The two Asians actually started to bid frantically for this obviously problematic porcelain plate, which made the antique dealers present feel a good show, but some people with poor eyesight began to doubt, could it be this porcelain plate? Really good stuff?

When the two people's bidding exceeded one thousand dollars, some eyesight finally was not in place, but in line with the mistake, the local antique dealers who did not let go began to get involved, and then the herd effect broke out. Others originally Antique dealers who were confident in their eyesight also began to hesitate, and finally joined the fray.

The price of this porcelain plate immediately soared, and soon exceeded $5,000.

By the time Candace came back, in just ten minutes, the price of this porcelain plate had soared to nine thousand dollars. Such a high price finally made those local antique dealers withdraw from the bidding.

Now the competition is still on, and only Jin Muchen and the nouveau riche in Xiangjiang are left.

"Nine thousand one hundred dollars?"

The nouveau riche in Xiangjiang made another bid. At this time, he was blushing and had a thick neck. He glared at Jin Muchen fiercely. The more he looked like this, the more angry the guy became.

But at this time, he also estimated that it was time to stop, because this Hong Kong nouveau riche, this time the offer, has been a little hesitant.

"Nine thousand one hundred dollars, is there anything higher?"

Josh was on the stage, looking at Jin Muchen eagerly, hoping that he could bid again and raise the price a little higher, but this time, Jin Muchen didn't respond.

"$9,100 for the first time...$9,100 for the third time, so this pastel plate belongs to that Mr. Johnny!"

Hearing that he had won the bid, this Xiangjiang native seemed to have been directly shot with a booster. When he turned his head, he realized that the boy had disappeared.

Mad, why don't you let me play B? This victory is not perfect!

But the next auction quickly made everyone present forget the episode just now.

The last blue-and-white porcelain bowl was also photographed. The one who failed to win was gnashing his teeth, and the one who succeeded in the acquisition was celebrating with a crown.

These antique dealers took their spoils of the day and left the villa with the owner, but in Jin Muchen's view, the biggest winner of today's small auction is probably the smiling Qiao standing in front of the stage. Varied. Bentley.

Jin Muchen didn't make a detailed calculation, but in the small auction just now, he estimated that this guy at least sold an antique that was less than one million dollars. Even if part of the tax was deducted and divided equally with several brothers and sisters, he would definitely be able to fall behind. Many into the pockets.

"Thank you for your participation, Mr. King, especially for that auction. Although you didn't get the lot you wanted, thank you anyway."

Josh, who was in a good mood, happened to see Jin Muchen and Candace walking at the back of the crowd, so he came over to say hello and asked. After all, these two are friends of the Speight family next door, so they should not be neglected.

What's more, this kid has also done him a big favor. For a counterfeit item that he had identified by someone, it actually sold for such a price, but it was all due to this kid's help to muddy the water.

While speaking, he winked at Jin Muchen. When Jin Muchen saw his expression, he knew that Mr. Josh was not honest. com, but people signaled to him and got his love.

"Hehe, it's nothing, Mr. Bentley, those things are very good, but you should have seen that, we are all poor students, and we don't have much money on us. I thought this time should be an ordinary garage sale, That’s why I came to see it, but it’s not like that, but it can be regarded as an eye-opener for us to learn a lot of new things.”

Jin Muchen replied with a smile, and when Josh heard this, he immediately felt that this young man was very honest, and he liked such a humble and 'helpful' young man.

He came over and patted Jin Muchen on the shoulder: "Don't worry, young man, as long as you are willing to study and work hard, one day in the future, you will be able to afford something like this. Let's go, I'll go out with you!"

After talking, he chatted with Jin Muchen and Candace and walked out the door. At this time, the sun was setting outside. The sale of his garage was a complete success, and it was time for the villa to close.

But just as he reached the door, the Mr. Bentley seemed to suddenly remember something.

"By the way, Mr. Jin, I still have some things here, maybe you will be interested. These things are second-hand goods that have not been used for a long time, and should be suitable for ordinary garage sales. If you are interested, you may wish to Come and have a look. If you don't want it, I can only throw it away as garbage, but there are still some useful things in it."

Jin Muchen turned around and looked at Bentley. His eyes were sincere, and he didn't sneer at giving alms. It seemed that they really had some second-hand goods and wanted to deal with them.
