Chapter 464: Play cards out of common sense

   Chapter 464

  Not only because of this sword, it can make the price of spears and shields soar, offsetting the cost of this sword by hundreds of thousands of pounds.

  As long as the collection lasts for a few years, the market will digest the auction, and the high prices in the hearts of collectors.

  Sold together three pieces, it is definitely not 140+140+140 GBP 4.2 million, it is very likely to be 5 or 6 million pounds.

  Annie gave Li Changheng a blank look and whispered, "You guys are doing too much calculation."

  Li Changheng smiled, holding her little hand, and looking at the last auction item.

  Vergil saw Li Changheng look over, and suddenly looked forward to it.

  Be aware that this bronze lot from the ancient Roman era has absolutely no historical value.

  What can be bad is that the protagonist of the statue is Artemis, the hunting goddess in the declining Olympus mythology system.

  In other words, just the belief in this area excludes a large part of potential customers.

  Moreover, this treasure is only the size of a slap, which is not a worthy collection in the eyes of many local collectors who have little relationship with historical and cultural value.

  The collectors who really understand her value are generally scholars, professors, or rich people who have studied this aspect of history.

  In such a small range, the probability of a rich man is too small.

   or a lot of rich people who like it, the cash in their hands may not be sufficient, allowing them to spend on a bronze statue at will.

  Fortunately, this treasure will be taken out, except that the owner really wants to sell it.

  It's still because Li Changheng has bought artworks at auctions several times, but none of the artworks are mainstream cultural relics.

  Therefore, many people think that the more weird treasures, the more attractive they are.

  Vergil pointed to the bronze statue that was placed on a special glass table, and when illuminated by the light, it appeared to be a little shining.

  "The statue of Artemis and the stag is from the 2nd to 1st century BC, and besides myself, there are 3 master experts in art appraisal who jointly issued the signature certificate of treasures.

  The starting price is 800,000 pounds, and the owner requires that the price increase is not less than 100,000 each time. "

  Damn it, when I heard that the price increase should not be less than 100,000, many people immediately retreated.

  This thing has four masters who use their reputation as a guarantee. The possibility of falsehood is extremely low, extremely low, and the value is not to be doubted.

  But no one is a fool.

  The owner makes such a request, which will definitely make people suspect that he is intending to raise the price.

  You only need to send an individual to the site, or even use the phone to bid for the price, and the price can easily be increased by hundreds of thousands.

  All eyes are on Li Changheng.

  Because he is the only person who is rich, likes bizarre artworks that are not mainstream, and if he really likes it, he doesn’t care about all the conditions of the price.

  Sure enough, Li Changheng, who had the impression of this bronze statue in his memory, did not even raise the sign, and directly quoted the price of ‘£1 million’, which instantly caused the people on the scene to boil.

  This slap-sized gadget will basically change hands every 7 or 8 years in the future, and then its value soared to 9 million pounds in 1995.

  Calculated at 1 million pounds, compared purely with inflation, three times the inflation, it is definitely a suitable investment project.

  Not to mention that he would rather sell for 2 million pounds today, and spending 1 million more is just a signal to the outside world.

  As for how much feedback this can bring.

  Even if you don’t use money to calculate, just to strengthen the confidence of countless people that gold will rise and oil will rise is definitely not a pure 1 million pounds in return.

  However, if someone really takes him as a jerk.

  Li Changheng would rather use other methods to express his thoughts on gold, diamonds and oil.

   will not jump into other people's sleeves stupidly.

  Instead, he can use the opponent's purposefulness and kick him into the fire pit with one foot.

   "One million pounds for the first time", Virgil stared at the people present.

  However, his gaze was intentionally or unintentionally facing the telephone quotation desk, and he could not escape Li Changheng's eyes.

  Sure enough, when Virgil saw someone raising his hand, he immediately pointed to the other person and said to everyone, "1.1 million pounds, from a telephone quote."

  Li Changheng didn’t need others to expect, and said directly, “1.5 million.”

  "God", the people present can't care about being polite or impolite.

  In countless auctions, I have never seen anyone. OnePlus is a geometric increase of 200,400,000 pounds.

  Even Virgil, who had been standing on the auction stage for more than 30 years, could not help but stutter.

   "1, 1.5 million pounds, is there any increase."

  After finishing this, everyone was staring at Virgil, and he was shocked.

  Then reacted in an instant, Li Changheng’s unusual quotation easily disrupted their scheduled plan.

  Since the situation has changed, as far as he is concerned, he definitely cannot deliberately slow down his speech like just now.

  Because he knows very well that this unreasonable price increase is equivalent to pre-ordering the headlines of at least France and England tomorrow.

  Today’s bronze statue of Artemis and the Bucks and the buyer Henry Lee will surely be famous all over the world.

   With such great attention, as long as the auctioneer himself is a little slower in asking the price, someone will definitely jump out and accuse him.

  This blow to his personal prestige and reputation is absolutely fatal.

   Therefore, Virgil does not care about the established plan at this time, and does not want to use his future career and the reputation that he has built in decades to perfect others.

  You don’t have to think about it for a second. It was like he was actively helping Li Changheng. The first time he asked for the price, it took less than three seconds.

   shouted at the scene, "1.5 million pounds, the second time."

  Furthermore, the hand is still on the table, not to mention, the handleless mallet held by three fingers has already made the sound of the hammer falling.

  "1.5 million pounds, first,,,,."

  A person who called for a quotation, saw that Virgil did not look at his side, and immediately shouted, "Wait, here."

   "Sorry, sorry, some people are so dazzling, people can't help but focus on her."

  Everyone doesn’t understand~lightnovelpub.net~ The old man clearly said that it was Annie, but secretly it was Henry Lee.

  And when he said this, everyone could tell from his face that this old guy didn't know why, it seemed that he was really biased towards Henry Lee.

  If this were the past, everyone present would definitely laugh at him and accuse him.

  Before making a bid, everyone knew in their hearts that the last auction was probably deliberately set up by someone.

   Therefore, Virgil is for his own reputation and for the sake of customers.

  Preferential to real bids, and willing to bid, are super rich future big customers, it doesn’t seem so damnable.

  Even, most of the participants were thinking in their hearts.

  I put myself in the situation, if I encountered this kind of thing, I would definitely be willing to be the auctioneer Virgil.

  PS: It’s overwhelming. I’m asking for monthly tickets from all the big guys, thank you.

    Thank you for calling me Baodan 00 for your reward, thank you.
