Picking up leaks in live broadcast: There are treasures everywhere in my eyes

Chapter 568

In about fifteen minutes, many buyers on site had completed their bidding.

The Indian antiques on the display table were auctioned for each piece.

Next to those antique artifacts, there are more or less a few envelopes.

Packed in those envelopes were quotations from these buyers on site.

Seeing that no one had stepped forward to put down the envelope, Xiao Ran smiled and said

, "Gentlemen, are there any bidders?"

"If no one bids again, then I will announce the auction reserve price of these antique cultural relics, and then open the bids on the spot"

The words did not fall, and many buyers on the scene responded.

"Sean, hurry

up and open the bid, everyone can't wait" "That's right, Sean, hurry up and open the bid, I want to know how many treasures

I can get today" Xiao Ran looked at these buyers on the scene, and then nodded and said:

"Okay, since everyone can't wait, then I will announce the auction reserve price now, and then open the bid on the spot"

The next moment, he began to announce the auction reserve price.

"Gentlemen, let me first talk about the auction reserve price of this owl-headed human

statue" "This statue is very special, it is carved with the god of death in the mythology of the Algonchin people

" "And the carving technique of this statue is quite clever, full of dramatic tension, impressive

" "Another point, the materials used in this statue are the top materials, very rare

" "Combine these characteristics, This is definitely a top Indian antique artifact, with great collection and research value

" "After some analysis and research, the auction reserve price I gave for this obsidian sculpture is $10 million,......"

Before the words fell, the scene was directly fried.

Both the many buyers on site, as well as the exploration team members and others around them, were taken aback by the reserved price of this auction.

"What? $10 million reserved price, did I hear you right?

"Oh my God! This is just an antique artifact of the Massachusetts people!

"The Massachusetts are just a tribe that has completely died out after the birth of a rudimentary civilization, how can their antiques be so expensive?"

Even several Indian chiefs were taken aback by the auction reservation.

Immediately afterwards, they nodded appreciatively, and a smile appeared on everyone's face.

Obviously, they recognized Xiao Ran's quotation for the statue and thought that he was very discerning.

Listening to the exclamations at the scene, Xiao Ran just smiled softly and did not explain anything.

Next, he offered another obsidian sculpture at auction for a reserve price of $8 million.

This obsidian sculpture is carved of the god of darkness in Massachusetts mythology.

The God of Darkness is a very important deity, and it is also very appropriate.

He appeared in this dark world deep underground, and it was only fitting that he was clearly the master of this underground world.

As before, the $8 million auction reserve price once again shocked everyone and attracted a lot of exclamations.

Xiao Ran still did not give any explanation, but continued to announce the auction reserve price of the remaining antique cultural relics.

The auction reserve price for the other few antique artifacts is much lower.

Their auction reserve prices are basically around $1 million, and the highest is only $1.5 million.

Even so, after Xiao Ran gave the auction reserve price of these antique cultural relics, there were still several disappointed laments on the scene.

"Alas! The offer I gave was so low that I didn't even have the slightest chance, it's a pity!"

"Fak! It's just $50,000 short, and it's completely out of the picture!

Xiao Ran looked at these unlucky eggs, and then walked to the long display table.

Professor Baker and David, who were supervisors, followed.

Coming closer, Xiao Ran directly picked up the seven or eight envelopes placed next to the owl-headed statue.

Then open the envelopes one by one and, witnessed by Professor Baker and David, begin to look at the offers given by the various buyers.

In just a few moments, he had read all the quotes for this obsidian statue of the Grim Reaper.

Then, he took out the highest quotation and showed it in front of everyone's eyes.

"Gentlemen, it was a bidding team of several Indian chiefs who finally won this obsidian statue

of death" "They offered $32.5 million, which is higher than any other offer, and they chose to bid in dollars."

Saying that, Xiao Ran nodded at Chief Shan Feng and the others.

Looking at the Indian chiefs again, they were all excited and cheered directly.

The rest of the people at the scene turned to look at them, some envious, some annoyed, and some exclaimed.

"At $32.5 million, this offer is too high, more than twice the reserved price, who would have thought!"

"It can be seen that these Indian chiefs are bound to get this obsidian statue of death, and there may be some unknown secrets hidden behind this statue"

While everyone was cheering and discussing, Xiao Ran had picked up a few envelopes placed next to the second obsidian sculpture and began to check the quotation.

It was still Professors David and Baker who supervised the scene.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ran had already checked four quotations.

These quotes include two invalid quotes below the reserved price.

The buyers who made both offers were also frustrated knowing they had lost their competitive qualifications.

The other two bids were valid, both above the auction reserve price, but not much higher.

When Xiao Ran opened the fifth envelope and saw the quotation inside.

He was suddenly stunned, and a bright smile immediately bloomed on his face.

But he didn't say anything more, just handed the quotation to David for verification, and opened the sixth envelope himself.

Seeing his performance, everyone on the scene instantly understood.

Obviously, the fifth offer was very satisfactory to him.

But people don't know who made the offer.

The sixth quotation that was opened afterwards made Xiao Ran pause again.

Professor Baker and David, who were standing next to them, couldn't help but be stunned when they saw the content on the quotation.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ran had already come to his senses and casually opened the last envelope.

This time, he only glanced at the quotation on the list and handed it to David.

When David finished the review, he pondered for a while, and then said aloud

: "Gentlemen, the bidding results for this obsidian statue of the god of darkness have been released

" "The winning bidder is the Harvard Art Museum, and they are willing to exchange a few Chinese antique artworks with me" "

These Chinese antique artworks are: the bronze rhinoceros statue of the early Warring States period, the black jade of the Liangzhu culture, the double phoenix ear jade cup of the middle of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the duck-shaped bronze cup of the Western Zhou Dynasty."

"I love these Chinese antique artworks and would love to pocket them, and now that I have this opportunity, I don't want to miss it!"

Before the words fell, Martha and others at the Harvard Art Museum cheered excitedly.

"Fantastic! This statue of the God of Darkness belongs to us! "

Our museum has another treasure of the town hall, what a beautiful day

" As they cheered and celebrated, Chief Mountain Wind suddenly stepped forward and said

, "Sean, the offer we gave for this statue of the God of Darkness is $20.5 million, isn't this offer comparable to those few pieces of Chinese antique art?"

With his words, the scene immediately resounded with exclamations.

The quotes made by several Indian chiefs for this obsidian statue took everyone by surprise.

No one expected that these Indian chiefs would be so generous.

However, it is not surprising to think of the casinos lining various Indian reservations.

Although the Indians were captivated by the U.S. government, they could only live on reservations.

However, they can make money by opening casinos in reserved areas without paying taxes.

In this case, the chiefs of the major Indian tribes are actually not bad money in their pockets, and they are all billionaires.

As for the Indians living at the bottom, that's another story.

Xiao Ran looked at Chief Shan Feng, and then said with a smile:

"Mr. Chiefs, the offer you gave for this dark god is very competitive

" "But as I said before, I prefer to choose you to exchange Chinese antique

artworks" "These Chinese antique artworks taken out by the Harvard Art Museum are exactly what I like, so I choose to exchange with them

" "In fact, These Chinese antique works of art are priceless, and in my eyes, their value is higher than your offer"

Hearing this explanation, several Indian chiefs suddenly had nothing to say, and they all fell silent.

Martha and the others, who were standing on the side, had a trace of regret flashing in their eyes.

"Martha, is the offer we gave too high? Cheap Sean, this cunning guy for nothing

" "Listen to the meaning of his words, even if we remove one or two treasures, this guy will probably agree to exchange with us"

Professor Samuel said in a low voice, his tone sour.

Martha looked back at him and pondered for a moment before whispering back:

"It's too late to say this, for the sake of safety, let's stick to the previous bidding strategy, there is no need to change!"

"Sean, this cunning little bastard, it's too hard to figure out, if we remove one or two treasures, maybe we will be defeated by several Indian chiefs

" "Indeed, in the face of Sean, this cunning guy, you can't be too careful,"

Professor Langdon continued.

While speaking, Xiao Ran picked up the envelope next to the third lot and began to check the quotation.

The next auction went very smoothly.

The subsequent several statues made of gold were successfully photographed, and there was no first-class shoot.

However, the transaction price of these gold statues cannot be compared with the two obsidian statues.

Even so, Xiao Ran made a fortune and exchanged several pieces of Chinese antique art.

At the same time as the auction was going on, the clean-up operation in the cracks in the ground continued.

After a while, another batch of antique artifacts and gold products were hoisted to the ground.

This private auction in the chapel has also been continuing and becoming more and more popular.
