(PS: to be honest, little devil sincerely thanks you for your reward and recommendation tickets. Thank you for your support and try to repay your support. As for the golden finger that the author opens to the main character, I can't help it since I haven't given the main character the ability, the space, the cultivation of immortals and so on. Some small time online events naturally need to be modified. However, I will fill in these bugs slowly later. I can't leave a message here. Thank you again for the reward from several apprentices

Rare things are precious. In the United States, perhaps because of the short history of the founding of the people, people attach great importance to things of historical value. Because of its unique cultural connotation, long history and exquisite workmanship, Chinese antiques have become the favorite of the antiques market.

However, antiques are closely related to culture. In terms of the arrogance of the people of the United States and the United States, apart from the interest of professionals in studying the culture of other countries, most of them only learn something through media reports. As an ideological hostility, the media of the US empire can imagine the reports of the Chinese Empire. In fact, everyone is almost the same. Freckles are just laughing. So many collectors don't know the value of their collections.

It often happens to sell Chinese antiques as handicrafts. Andy has seen a news before. A collector in Los Angeles has a well preserved jade Cong in his hand. After a collector from China confirmed that this is a 7000 year old Neolithic cultural object, the old beauty knew that she was a millionaire.

Most of the collectors of the United States divided their value by fame and beautiful appearance. Therefore, in the United States, the most valuable porcelain was ancient China of the Chinese dynasty, then bronze, celebrity calligraphy and painting, then jewelry and jade. Of course, rosewood furniture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties was also very valuable. (this is true, as was the case in the American antiques market before 2008)

because of historical reasons, many Chinese antiques are scattered among the American people. If he has the ability to identify the true and the false, it is a good business. Unfortunately, it requires professional skills. Andy can only think about it. This is also known by collecting information after returning from the antique shop in Chinatown, although He didn't understand why his soul felt only reacting to antiques, or whether there was any regularity.

Antiques like this kind of charity auction have basically been identified as true or false, and have also been valued. Of course, the price will not be as high as that of the auction company, starting from $100. The early valuation also hopes that the people who are present at the auction can understand its value and use the appropriate price to do charity.

Of course, this kind of charity auction also has its disadvantages. All the people present are not poor in money, but the bidding is not fierce. All of them will be accepted as soon as they see the good, and there will be no scene of competition. It will be very disrespectful to compete, and offend others by beating their faces. In this situation, the identity of any one person is not so offending.

So Andy first decided to take the main auction, the red flower brooch of ruby and diamond, the "treasure of Qing'an (Yan) in Jiuzhou" of Qianlong jade seal, which he would not let go.

As for a group of ten pieces of oracle bone inscriptions with good appearance, a decoration of green and white jade peach, a pair of bowls with blue and white patterns of longevity in Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, and the gilded bronze auspicious beast of the Ming Dynasty. But no one knows what will happen at the auction. If Andy wants to make a cheeky bid, it will definitely cause some people's dissatisfaction. If he wants to fight for wealth, Andy is only a baby here now. Besides, Andy has only six million dollars left in his hands.

"Ah, it's still too poor!" Andy sighs a little sadly.

When jarparis' Ruby and Diamond Flower Brooch began to be auctioned, Andy whispered to his mother and said, "Mom, I'll take it for you."

As a jewelry designer, Li Wanqing also has a lot of jewelry. This ruby red flower brooch is not precious to her, but her son's filial piety makes her very happy. She claps Andy's hand with a loving smile.

Andy's bidding is not fierce. You can see that Andy's continuous bidding knows that he is going to win. For most people, it's charity. They won't hold on to bidding. Everyone's concerns are the same. Basically, no one competes with Andy just when the valuation price is reached.

Andy's price is $170000. The guests give a good applause. The brooch is sent by the waiter. Andy takes the box, opens it for confirmation, and hands it to Li Wanqing, who is in a happy mood.

The auction of Qianlong jade seal "the treasure of Qing'an (Yan) in Jiuzhou" didn't go so well. There were several Chinese guests involved in the auction, but Andy's ambition was to surprise Austin and Li Wanqing a little, attracting the same table and the surrounding guests to look at it frequently.

600000 US dollars, which caused a low voice of surprise, many people whispered, after all, it's just a stone seal, although it's an emperor's, but the price is also very high, for several Chinese Americans, it's a little tangled, they don't lack this money, but the opponent is a young boy, which is very annoying. Through some friends, they also understand Andy's identity, and continue to pester that way It's really disrespectful.

700000 dollars, Andy excitedly waved his arm and got it. When applause broke out, Andy stood up with a smile and bowed in the air with his hands clasped in the direction of several Chinese Americans.

A few Chinese Americans saw that Andy really understood the Chinese culture and responded kindly with clapping hands. They were just a little surprised at his age.Excitedly, he took over the box, shook his hands and took out the seal. "Hiss ~ ~ ~ Yes, there's a reaction. What a magnificent feeling..." Andito is in his hand, gently stroking the seal. Li Wanqing is also a little excited. She curiously reaches out and looks at it. Although she is an ABC hybrid, she is very clear about the meaning of the seal.

Contented, Andy returns the jade seal from oston, carefully puts it into the box, presses down the excited mood, and continues to watch other people auction. In addition to a few promising Chinese antiques, Andy is not interested in other auction products, and many famous calligraphy and paintings have made good prices.

The auction of Ming gilded copper auspicious beast didn't go well. It seems that he didn't have any interest in this paper town. Andy tried to ask for a price and got it for 20000 dollars.

And that pair of Kangxi blue and white longevity grain bowl caused several people's bidding, Andy didn't intervene.

Qing. The green and white jade peach comes out with accessories. The price is only $30000, but no one offers. Andy sees the chance and gets it with $35000.

Andy's auction behavior attracted some people's attention. This kind of unbridled leak detection behavior is a bit excessive. After all, we all know that the value of antiques auctioned here is still great, but it's because of the face that we didn't over bid.

Osten also seemed to feel his son's behavior was a little disrespectful. His face was ugly and he shouted in a low voice: "pay attention to your behavior. Don't overdo it!"

Andy touches his nose. He knows what he has done is a little annoying, but he can use his youth and ignorance to avoid it because he is young. Now that he is scolded, he breaks the idea of taking advantage.

Ten pieces of oracle bone were sold to Larry Ellison for $1.5 million. Andy watched with envy as Larry, known as "the bastard", proudly took over the box that the waiter sent to him.

"Marty, what's the use of this idiot buying it back? Is it because his company is Oracle? The name of Oracle has been stolen shamelessly! " Andy cursed a little jealously.

To be honest, it's a bit boring to watch others bidding, and the little food before Andy's big appetite is useless. The hunger makes him feel a little fidgety. In smart clothes, everyone around

looked at the clothes and make complaints about them. They were all dead and braced. They were all decent people of the upper class. Andy did not have malicious Tucao.

At 10 o'clock in the night, the charity auction is finally over. Andy, who swiped his card early in the morning, got the tax-free receipt. He can't wait to walk out with Li Wanqing's arm in his hand.

"I'm starving. Now I can eat a cow!" Andy murmured to his mother.

Li Wanqing just smiles and understands her son's grievances. She doesn't like this kind of dinner either. She is absolutely hungry and tired. She can feel the muscles of her face stiff when she goes home. It's not easy to keep smiling all the time.

"You, bear it, and find a restaurant to fill your stomach! However, you are not good tonight. It's a bit ugly to eat the antiques that are continuously offered and photographed, which makes others laugh! " Li Wanqing has a slightly dissatisfied lesson.

"Hum!" There was a cold snort on oston's face.

"Haha, I like the Chinese culture. Besides, I do charity." Andy laughs and plays the rascal.

"You are a very young child. In the future, please pay attention that this kind of thing can't have a second time. It will affect your reputation. After all, no one is a fool. " Li Wanqing did not persuade.

"I see! What a bother! It's better not to attend such a party in the future! " Andy curls his mouth.

"Children! This is New York. Family and tradition are the blood of this place. You are also an adult. You should attend this kind of dinner alone in the future. Remember that some family children and their names are compulsory courses. Never do anything disrespectful. " Li Wanqing is a little angry about Andy's disdain. Some principles can't be compromised.

"It's too much trouble. It's still comfortable in Los Angeles." Andy make complaints about it. There is a bit of agitated Tucao road.

"Hum! There are only upstarts in Los Angeles, no aristocrats. " Osten snorted with pride.

"Ha ~ ~ ~" Andy flicks his mouth, does not say a word to refute, for the father 's sarcasm is very disdainful, where the aristocracy from the United States, as if the May flower is all those who can not mix up in the British Empire, the cheeky really thick.

Sitting in the car, Andy yells to find a restaurant to eat. Otton looks at Li Wanqing's son who is playing tricks on him. He picks up the phone to set a place for the familiar restaurant.

Just then, Andy's cell phone rang. He picked up the phone and looked at it. His brow couldn't help wrinkling. He whispered, "how is she?"

When he picked up the phone, he hung up without saying a word. Andy said to his parents, "it's Paris. She has made a meal in Waldorf. She's going to have a party after eating. Let me pass."
