C33 National treasure
After Han Dong sat down, he began to observe the situation in the room. What made him most excited was that he found the person from the Red Sky Scorpion! There were more than a dozen men in black standing in the corridor around this room. They were dressed the same as the person who had tried to assassinate him that day! If they could catch a live one today, they might be able to get their hands on quite a few of the Red Sky Scorpion's secrets.
"Everyone, everyone is present. I believe that everyone is looking forward to today's auction. I hope that everyone will be interested in bidding!" Success in taking what you want! " The person who spoke up on stage was Wu Yang! There was a very hot woman standing beside him. She repeated what he had said in English. It seemed that there were a lot of foreigners among them.
"Today's goods come from different places, I hope that there's something you like in here. Of course, I also believe that you will like it! Those who have obtained the goods will be specially sent to take you to your rooms. The transactions will be completed in the rooms. As for how everyone can safely take the goods away, that will depend on their own abilities and I believe everyone has come prepared. I won't say much, just directly look at the goods! " Wu Yang said one sentence, and the woman explained one sentence to him.
The first few items were all Chinese and foreign calligraphy and paintings. Although they were very expensive outside, they were not welcomed here. Basically, no one bid, and there were already people whispering below. Wu Yang knew that these people had already been held in suspense, so next would be the highlight of the show.
"Everyone, look carefully at the next auction item! It took a lot of effort for this item to reach us. This is the most precious treasure of the Louvre! "
Louvre! The audience was in an uproar, Han Dong knew that something was not right. The Louvre only had three treasures, and each one of them was priceless!
"Clap clap." Wu Yang clapped twice on the stage, and two people brought items up onto the stage. Although the two were wearing masks, Han Dong recognized them, and they were clearly Boss Tsai and Hei Bang!
The thing was tightly wrapped with a piece of cloth. Boss Tsai and Hei Bang carefully held it, and Wu Yang walked over and lifted the layer of cloth on the outside. It was a painting, and that painting was clearly "The Smile of Mona Lisa"!
Impossible! Han Dong screamed in his heart! If a painting of the Louvre had been stolen, how could there be no sound at all?! However, Han Dong thought that it would be weird if the whole world knew that "Mona Lisa's Smile" was lost! In order to control the public's opinion, the Louvre probably wouldn't dare to leak out such a huge information. It was very possible that the people of the Red Sky Scorpion had stolen the painting, and the Red Sky Scorpion was backing Wu Yang and Boss Tsai up, only the Red Sky Scorpion had such abilities!
Everyone looked at the painting. This painting was simply too famous. It was impossible that no one did not know of it!
"The starting price is ten million, and every bid adds two million." Wu Yang shouted expressionlessly from above.
How could money be used to measure the value of this painting? For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded. No one had actually raised a hand.
After a while, a trembling voice could be heard, "Twenty million."
This announcement startled everyone. One by one, people began to raise their prices, and soon, the price was raised to fifty million!
At the very end, when the painting called out a price of seventy million, a man wearing a rose mask was about to leave.
"Congratulations, the《 Mona Lisa's Smile》 is yours. You can choose to continue participating in the auction, or you can start the transaction right now." Wu Yang's face was full of smiles. He didn't know how much money he could earn this time!
The man who had filmed The Mona Lisa's Smile sat there.
Han Dong was shocked, who were these people!? How could they be so rich!
"The second item is rather small, but its price is about the same as the previous one." Wu Yang glanced at Boss Tsai.
"This collection was obtained from the Bajero Museum in Florence. The author of this collection is coincidentally the teacher of the author of the painting, 'Smiling Mona Lisa'. I know that everyone here is an experienced person, so I should be able to guess what this is."
Boss Tsai took a look at the people below and opened the outer box of this auction item.
"Yes, this is David's bronze statue! Created in 1475, this statue is only 126 centimeters, so it's very convenient for you to take it away. " Wu Yang laughed sinisterly.
"The starting price is still 10 million, just like before. Every bid increases 2 million."
This bronze statue of David is indeed worth as much as The Mona Lisa's Smile. In the end, the bid was 60 million. The man who took the bronze statue of David did not leave.
Han Dong was too shocked, no normal person could be here tonight!
"Alright, now that the two foreign collections are settled, the next two collections come from China, so don't miss out on the friends who are interested in Chinese collections."
When Han Dong heard this, he could not help but concentrate. Once it was confirmed that it was a national treasure, then Wu Yang and the Boss Tsai's crime of smuggling of national treasures would be completely established!
Under the gaze of the entire audience, Boss Tsai took out the third item.
A great python! One of the four great national treasures of China, the Great Cauldron! Many of the people present were foreigners, they might not have recognized this item, so Wu Yang explained to them: "This is a great python, 101.9 cm tall, with a diameter of 77.8 cm. This great python is a bronze artifact from the Western Zhou Dynasty, and there are even some inscriptions on it. Just the inscriptions on it are already one of the four great treasures in the history of calligraphy in China! This thing was taken out from the Chinese Museum of History! I believe that everyone knows the value of this item. Let's start the bidding. The starting price is the same as before. "
Han Dong really wanted to raise his hand up, the two items from earlier were foreign, he could barely sit still. But now, it was China's national treasure, if it was taken away by someone and the people from the cat nest outside couldn't stop it in time, then this national treasure would probably be lost overseas. But Han Dong knew that he still had the last item, he wanted to wait a little longer!
To Han Dong's relief, it was a Chinese who took the cauldron, and he stayed to see the last collection.
As long as he bought this treasure, he would be able to capture Wu Yang and the Boss Tsai when he made the transaction.
"In the end, this collection could be said to belong to the same family as the previous one. It is also a bronze artifact. This item is called, Dian's disk! "
Dian's disk! The four national treasures of the late Qing Dynasty Western Zhou bronze artifacts and cultural treasures! and the great python, the Mao Gong Ding, the Ji Zi Bai plate known as China's four great national treasures of the Dian's disk! The Dian's disk was unearthed in the early years of Qian Long. It was round, shallow belly, double ears, high ring feet, and the circle feet were covered with beast mask patterns. The engraved characters were important historical materials for studying the land system of Western Zhou. The Wu and Boss Tsai Families were simply insane, they could even do something as easy as selling their own country!
Han Dong raised the board for the first time!
When the foreigners heard Wu Yang's explanation, they also knew the value of the Dian's disk and started to raise their prices one after another. Very quickly, the price of the Dian's disk rose to 60 million! Han Dong raised the card again.
"70 million!" a foreigner shouted.
Han Dong raised his card again without hesitation. He wouldn't spend money to buy this Dian's disk anyways, his goal was to catch them red-handed. But Han Dong was inconvenient to speak because he was worried that the Boss Tsai would be able to recognize his voice.
When Han Dong raised his plate to eighty-six million, no one raised the price anymore.
"86 million going once!" Wu Yang shouted.
"86 million twice!"
"86 million three times!"
"Deal!" Congratulations to the winner! " Wu Yang indicated that the Dian's disk belonged to Han Dong, and the Dian's disk had actually auctioned off such a high price!
"The auction for today's items is complete. Now it's time for the transaction. Everyone, please follow the staff to complete the transaction." Wu Yang said on the stage. He and Boss Tsai looked at each other, unable to conceal the glee in their eyes.
Han Dong stood up and looked for Xu Rou's figure. When their eyes met, Xu Rou immediately understood what Han Dong meant. It was time to let the cat in. This time, the people in the cat nest had come prepared, and every one of them had already installed a signal receiver in their ears. As long as Xu Rou gave out the signal, everyone would receive the news.
Now that the four important items were all taken away, Han Dong sat on his seat, waiting for someone to bring him to complete the transaction!
