As soon as Mr. Wu explained, everyone understood. The auction house of love is an "underground" auction house that is officially acquiesced to the recycling of antiques passed away from overseas.

The purpose of this auction house is to collect foreign antiques and take them back to buy them. They are only allowed to enter and not export them. Generally, if you encounter extremely precious antiques, you will definitely buy them. Then, many of these antiques will appear in major museums in the country.

Of course, for such an auction house, it is impossible for the buyer to only Chinese, and there will be many foreigners. After all, even if you want to buy back antiques, you have to take care of international relations. And all the items come from abroad, and foreigners cannot be excluded from them.

There are actually many rules here, and there are some things that Mr. Wu doesn’t even know very well. In short, in one sentence, the background of this auction house is unfathomable!

Su Chen looked through the catalogue of lots, but after reading for a long time, he couldn't see anything. He had to see the real objects when identifying antiques. Just looking at photos was almost useless, even if Su Chen had supernatural powers, it would not work.

There was no way, Su Chen had to give up and wait quietly for the auction to begin.

It didn't make Su Chen wait too long. The auction house seemed very willful. When they saw that everyone was here, they didn't wait for the hour. At about 6:40, a plump middle-aged woman walked onto the stage and started to host the auction.

The middle-aged woman is a veteran. She didn't talk nonsense when she came up, she briefly introduced the rules and then started filming directly.

Because this auction is a black market in a sense, there are not so many rules and the process is extremely simple.

The rule of the auction house is to divide all lots into ten groups, each group has ten to fifteen lots. Before each group auction, everyone has fifteen minutes to verify the lots close, and then auction the lots in each group one by one.

Soon, the first group of lots were pushed up one by one.

Most of the items are stored in a movable counter. Above the counter is a tempered glass cover of the same name. Everyone can identify the authenticity through the glass and cannot touch it physically, which is extremely eye-catching.

If the lot is larger, such as famous paintings, calligraphy, bronze ware and other cultural relics, the auction house also has a unique booth to store the lot.

Half of the first group of lots are porcelain, and there are two paintings, an ancient sword, a bronze tripod, and three jade ornaments.

After the items were pushed up, Mr. Wu, Su Chen and others all got up to identify them. Even Yu Qing and Tang Wanning, who did not understand cultural appreciation, were also excited to watch the stage. It doesn’t matter if they didn’t understand, they could watch the fun.

Su Chen ignored the others, nor did he think about wasting time to exercise his eyesight. He directly opened his eyes and swept backwards from the first lot like a radar.

"Songguan Kiln pastel porcelain jar, fake..."

"Qing Qianlong enamel flower pattern bowl, authentic..."

"Yongzheng blue and white porcelain...fake..."

......

"The bronze tripod of Shang and Zhou dynasties, authentic..."

"Green Jade and Glazed Buddha, authentic..."

......

Su Chen finished sweeping all the way and smacked his tongue secretly.

What a good guy, it's worthy of being a large auction house, the authenticity rate is so high. There are 14 items in total, and five of them are genuine. The probability is really quite high.

Su Chen glanced around from beginning to end again, and finally looked at the bronze tripod from the late Shang Dynasty.

Undoubtedly, among the fourteen lots, it has the highest price.

In recent years, the price of bronze ware has been rising in foreign auction houses. The transaction price of a complete bronze ware is in 100 million yuan.

The domestic ban on bronze ware trading can only be seen occasionally in such "cross-international" auction houses.

This bronze ware is not very good in appearance. The body of the tripod is a bit broken and the workmanship is a bit rough. It is considered an ordinary bronze ware.

But even in ordinary terms, it was a bronze ware from the late Shang Dynasty, and its historical significance could not be measured by money.

So when he saw that this bronze ware was judged to be true by his eyes, Su Chen was determined to win this bronze ware.

Su Chen was excited to see, and Mr. Wu came over, and Mr. Wu looked very excited.

"Xiaochen, what do you think?"

Su Chen glanced at Mr. Wu and knew that this person had confirmed it. He probably asked him more if he was interested in taking the photo.

After all, compared to others, Mr. Wu trusts Su Chen more.

Su Chen nodded, leaned close to Old Wu's ear and said, "Don't worry, I'm going to settle this tripod!"

Mr. Wu looked at Su Chen and nodded with relief. But after a moment, Mr. Wu regained his rationality and actually grabbed Su Chen and persuaded him.

"Xiaochen, do what you can!"

Upon hearing this, a warm current surged in Su Chen's heart.

Although Mr. Wu is devoted to serving the country, his character is really impeccable in life.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wu, I'm responsible."

Mr. Wu nodded and said nothing more.

A quarter of an hour later, the auction began.

The first item is the jade glass Buddha. It is a jade Buddha ornament from the Republic of China period, about the size of a basketball. The jade Buddha is carved in jade and has exquisite carvings. Moreover, the jade is a glass-type Yanglu jade. The price of jade is priceless, not to mention historical added value.

So the starting price of the first item is 25 million.

Su Chen still likes this jade ornament very much, but he did not participate in the auction. He has prepared to sweep the authentic antiques of the auction house today. But after all, it is an auction. He has to leave some soup for others when eating meat. Therefore, Su Chen does not plan to participate in the auction for some jadeite, jade and other items that have little historical value or cultural relics with low historical value.

The first lot was finally bought by a wealthy businessman from OneMart for 39 million.

The second item after that was still jadeite, and Su Chen still did not participate in the auction.

Yu Qing, Yi Zhou and others were jealous, but they were also rational. These things were really not something they could play with, so although they were envious, they had no other thoughts.

After that, one item of goods was sold one after another, and only one of the fake porcelains from the Ming Dynasty failed to sell. It was probably because the porcelain was made too poorly and the traces of old things were too obvious. People with a little bit of vision could tell at a glance. However, all other fakes were sold, and the transaction price was not low, which made Su Chen smack his tongue.

During this period, he only spent 50 million to pat the enamel flower pattern bowl of Qianlong Qing Dynasty. This thing is also a treasure. Su Chen's first serial task in the museum is currently missing three national treasures and seven first-class cultural relics.

Among the cultural relics collected by Su Chen, the bronze head of the zodiac and the nine dragon sword are definitely national treasures.

The rest, Yuan blue and white, Picasso's "Pigeons and Peas", and the Ming Dynasty pure gold Buddha statue I bought later can be counted as first-level cultural relics, while the others are at most second-level or third-level.

Of course, if the fragments collected by Su Chen were restored to a complete Ru kiln, they would definitely be considered first-class cultural relics.
