Lei Liu said, knowing that Zhang Feng would not let him see the other two jade stones, so he didn't say any other nonsense. He stood up and was about to go away. He is going to prepare the materials for the value evaluation of Zhang Feng's jade.

Zhang Feng took a look at Lei Liu's back and became more and more sure of his feeling. Lei Liu is definitely not a simple person. Ordinary appraisers have to use instruments to identify jade in order to obtain accurate data. Lei Liu just touched it with his hand, and there is nothing wrong with his appearance. It seems that the identification work is so simple, He is so confident in himself that he is used to it.

Finally, Lei Liu helped Zhang Feng identify the jadeite and white jade. In fact, he just filled out some forms, stamped a seal, went to the manager for confirmation and signature, and went to the old man to arrange someone to arrange an auction seat at the blue whale club. That's all.

When Zhang Feng's jade was sent out of mingyuzhai by car, it was already 8:30 in the morning. Zhang Feng's mingyuzhai was near the edge of the West District of Jiang City and basically bordered on the East District, so it shouldn't waste too much time to go to the East District.

When he arrived at the blue whale club, there were still ten minutes and nine o'clock. Zhang Feng remembered that the auction of the blue whale club began at nine o'clock. At this time, all kinds of luxury cars had been parked outside the auction venue. In order not to cause hidden dangers, a road in front of the blue whale club was closed, so the special bus of mingyuzhai that Zhang Feng took couldn't get in at all.

"Just stop there, and then I can go in by myself." Zhang Feng pointed to a roadside next to the club, where there was no traffic jam. But the driver was still reluctant to stop.

The driver looked very embarrassed and said, "Sir, you are a seller. You can't go in through the front door. You should go directly to the club office from the back door to register your identity. There are other checks. Then someone will arrange for you to enter the venue, so now we have to bypass this intersection and go directly to the back door. That's the rule."

Zhang Feng is helpless. There are rich people in the blue whale club! Naturally, we should pay attention to the safety of our own lives and property. The seller must do a good job of identity registration from the back door to the designated place, and what inspections should be done. Needless to say, it must be some inspections with or without dangerous goods! Since the rules are set like this, he has nothing to say.

When Zhang Feng really entered the club, it was already nine o'clock, but he was not in a hurry. Generally speaking, the small tricks of the auction house usually start with an ordinary jade, and then it will become more and more wonderful, so he was not in a hurry.

After passing all the checks and identity registration, Zhang Feng was led to the auction venue, but he could only stay in a dark corner and was specially explained by the waiter. He could not make any noisy moves, or he would be driven out immediately. Although the waiter's tone was a little uncomfortable, he didn't care much about the wine and food here.

Seen from this dark corner, the hall of the auction venue is magnificent, and the lights shine on the crystal lights, which look very dazzling. On the auction table stood a woman in a cheongsam, graceful and charming, with a very charming smile on her face. Zhang Feng knew that she was the auctioneer here by looking at the tuning hammer in her hand.

According to the person who shouted at the curtain, the auctioneer's name is Ning yuan. He is a very famous auctioneer in Jiang city. The people under the stage are complacent. They either chat with the people next to them or do their own things. Several obscene old men squint and stare at Ning yuan on the stage. In short, I didn't listen to the people who shouted at the curtain at all. The young man who shouted at the curtain just looked a little ugly. It seems that he is used to it, so he is a little embarrassed, but he won't be embarrassed.

Zhang Feng is located on the second floor of the auction house, which is relatively corner, and the light is very dark, which makes Zhang Feng can see the outside situation here, while people outside can't see Zhang Feng's situation here. This should be a box for jade sellers to rest.

In the same space as Zhang Feng, there were five or six men, all looking nervously at the direction of the venue. From time to time, they also discussed with the people next to them how much their jade could be sold. When they spoke, they were beaming and excited like a tall and strong child.

Of course I'm excited! The jade that can be auctioned in this club, apart from others, must be much better than those auctioned in other auction houses, and naturally there will be a lot more money. Even after someone sold a piece of jade here, he could buy a company in Jiangshi with the money he got. From then on, he got rid of poverty and became rich. The jade sellers were fantasizing about whether they would become like that? Since then, he has a place in Jiangshi.

Zhang Feng did not join their fantasy. He was still observing the situation at the meeting. The venue was very noisy, as if there was no order, but even if there were rules not to quarrel, it was estimated that the upper class would not listen! Zhang Feng noticed that not all the bidders were sitting in the venue, because there were many boxes on the second floor.

Although the box window Zhang Feng saw was only a mirror, he understood that the setting of the auction house, the glass at the auction table on the second floor, was all one-way visibility glass, that is, from the outside, the window on the second floor was like a mirror, while from the inside to the outside, it was clear and high-definition. Sitting on the second floor is the real gold owner and, of course, the most important guest of the auction house.

Zhang Feng suddenly thought of two people, Li Rongxue and master Li. They probably came too. On this occasion, they can represent identity symbols. Even if they don't want to participate in such a scene, they will come and walk in order not to be regarded as different by others. Therefore, Zhang Feng determined that there must be one of Li Rongxue and master Li in the box on the second floor.

Suddenly, there came the sound of three sound fixing hammers from the auction desk. Zhang Feng looked over and saw that a jade had been photographed. He was just thinking about things and didn't care about the situation there. The photographed jade was a sapphire. Although it was good jade, it was not a treasure, so the response at the venue was not very enthusiastic, and some people even ignored it.

Zhang Feng is a little funny. It seems that the old man in charge of accounts in mingyuzhai is really right. Jade, which is not a rare treasure, can't basically get into the eyes of these rich people who have no place to spend.

"Next, it's our fifth auction. This is a piece of black jade. If any jade can best show your dignity, it must be black jade." Ning yuan's sweet voice came out. Several ladies in cheongsam came out of the background with a piece of jade and walked around the auction table to show the jade to the public in all directions.

During the exhibition, Ning yuan continued to introduce the jade and said: "the name of the black jade comes from the fact that the jade itself is black, but it is not the kind of dark ink. On the contrary, the black color doped with the black jade itself is light, such as a ribbon flowing in the jade, and the outside is wrapped with transparent white jade, which is like a landscape painting, natural and shows the noble identity."

After listening to Ning yuan's introduction, they saw that it was indeed a good jade from the on-site screen, so they focused on the auction venue. After Ning yuan reported the reserve price of ink jade, they raised their cards for auction, and the atmosphere was much warmer than at the beginning.

But Ning yuan was still a little uncomfortable. Her face was full of worry. After all, the characters on the second floor were indifferent from the beginning to now. They seemed to see nothing, so she didn't mean to bid.

Ning yuan looked at the auction list and seemed to be looking for a baby that could be auctioned by people on the second floor. After all, people on the second floor are the real buyers of the auction. If they don't take out what they see, they won't have the patience to see it. They think it's just a waste of time. Once they have such an idea, they will go.

As an auctioneer, Ning yuan certainly knows the truth, so she must adjust the order of auction items at this time. If nothing can attract people on the second floor, the auction will fail.

There has been such a situation before. The last auctioneer in Ning yuan didn't make adjustments in time during the auction, and the people on the second floor left one after another. That auction was the worst performance of mingyuzhai in the blue whale club, which was 50% lower than other auctions.

The reason is that it is the responsibility of the auctioneer, not that the auction items were bad. There is knowledge. A first-class auctioneer is good at inciting the mood of bidders and selling the auction items beyond the value of the baby itself. This is a qualified auctioneer.

The auction with the worst performance was like this. The auctioneer didn't know how to incite the spectators on the second floor. You know, the people on the second floor are not bad for money. If they pick their emotions to the highest point, they will bid for face and compete with other people. At this time, it's not the value of jade, but just to fight for breath.

This situation is what the auctioneer wants and what the auction house wants, but now the situation is not good. Several people on the second floor are indifferent. If it continues to develop like this, someone will leave. If one leaves, it will have a serial effect, one by one. At that time, Ning yuan will repeat the failure of the last auctioneer.

So she kept turning over the auction list, trying to find a jade or other antique that could stir up the atmosphere of the whole audience, but she couldn't find it until she saw a jade signed by Master Li.

Ning yuan seems to have found a life-saving straw and recruited a waiter nearby to show him the catalogue of the auction. He said: "wait a minute is the time for a small break. Advance the auction of this jade to the next one, and let the serving little girl go to each box for a preview. Of course, the special preview is Lao Li's box, so that Lao Li can be prepared. His jade is too good. Later, there may be a lot of people bidding. You go to congratulate Lao Li on behalf of our mingyuzhai."

As soon as the waiter listened, he certainly understood what Ning yuan meant, so there was a rule in the auction house. After five things were auctioned, he had to rest for ten minutes to facilitate the buyer and the buyer to confirm the funds, so it was also called a small break.

Ning yuan asked the waiter to go to each box first to give a preview, so that those people on the second floor who were in a state of boredom could have a spirit, so that they at least wouldn't leave during a small break. No one here didn't know what old Li was in Jiangshi, whether it was to give face to old Li or to Li's group, At least they'll stay until then.

This is exactly what Ning yuan wants. Once she starts bidding, it's not just who gives who face, but who wants to win face.
