Thinking of this, even Bai Jing felt a little bit excited. The Suote public market really deserves to be the once-in-ten-year emerald event. The woolen material and double-rubbed mouth of this performance are of the high-green quality of glass, which is the best in any other place. Impossible to see.
If this piece of wool is really full of emeralds, it means that there are at least more than 60 kilograms of glass species after removing the shell, with a total value of more than 400 million yuan, so even if Bai Jing spends 300 million yuan to photograph it, it is worth it.
Perhaps the profit margin is not too high, but this is a rare glass species!
Only glass jade can extract high-grade energy liquid above level 6, and neither high ice nor ice can extract it.
For Bai Jing, this part of the profit is the big part, so he will never auction off the glass jadeite in his hand.
And just this piece of wool can earn more than 100 million star coins, which is worth more than seven or eight high-end jadeites.
If there is no accident, the A01 piece of wool will be the king of the entire Sauter market this time!
Bai Jing probed his perception along the right window into this piece of wool numbered A01.
Almost immediately, a strong active reaction came, and that kind of surging vitality was the prerequisite for containing countless energies.
However, the green seed water in the glass broke when it reached six or seven centimeters inside, and the reaction became much weaker.
Although it is still glass, it is mixed with a lot of dot-shaped and silk-like white cotton like cotton wool.
White cotton is a translucent, slightly transparent white mineral in the shape of filaments, plaques, corrugations, and strips inside the jadeite, and it is an impurity in the jadeite. [Note]
In modern times, white cotton in jadeite is not necessarily a bad thing.
A skilled jade cutter can make various modifications according to the distribution of white cotton and carve it into a work of art.
There is also a very beautiful white cotton like snowflake cotton, which is like a little snowflake floating in the clean and clear texture of glass, which is quite artistic. After it is made into bracelets and pendants, its value remains high.
However, in the interstellar era, no matter what type of white cotton it is, it will absorb and block the energy in the jadeite, and as an impurity, it cannot be removed. Therefore, the value of jadeite containing white cotton inside will naturally be greatly reduced.
Bai Jing continued to deepen his perception, and found that more than half of it was glass jadeite with white cotton. It was not until the last ten centimeters that the glass apple green reappeared, which is the part close to the left window.
If you look at it this way, the real jade in this piece of wool is only one-third, that is, more than 20 kilograms, and its value is about 150 million star coins.
Bai Jing withdrew his perception and sighed softly in his heart.
Sure enough, it is hard to break an inch of jade. This piece of wool is so good, the left and right windows are green, and the python with pine flowers in the middle is also good, but it is a pity that it still cannot reach the state of full emerald.
Alas, it's a pity.
Bai Jing didn't show disappointment on his face, but with a smile on his lips, he observed the piece of wool seriously.
Although there were far fewer people in the hidden area than in the open area, he still noticed a few peeping eyes, and he couldn't let others see the clues.
After reading it, Bai Jing straightened up and set his eyes on the bidding box next to the wool.
The hidden bid area is different from the open bid area where you can directly bid on the spot. You can see other people's bid prices during the bidding and increase the bid price.
The bidding prices of everyone in the hidden bid area are not interoperable, similar to blind casting.
The bidding box only shows the bidding quantity, not the price. Everyone knows only the reserve price of the piece of wool and their own bidding price.
However, the reserve price has almost no reference in the Soter public market, and it can be multiplied several times, dozens of times or even hundreds of times, which is almost equivalent to no reference.
This method of blind guessing leads to higher prices and fiercer competition in the hidden label area.
For example: A's wool base price is 1 million, and A's valuation of it is 5 million.
If A’s wool is in the marked area, and A finds that the competitor’s maximum price increase is only 3 million, then he can win it at a cost of 3.1 million. To be on the safe side, 4 million yuan can definitely be auctioned.
And if A’s wool is in the hidden bid area, A will worry that his competitors will also bid 5 million or higher price, then he may bid 6 million or even 7 to 8 million to buy this piece of wool , nearly doubled the star coins spent. He is not the only one who has this kind of thinking. Every bidder is worried that others will bid a higher price than himself, so the wool in the hidden mark area will be more expensive than the open mark area. Basically, the good materials are in the hidden mark area.
Moreover, because they are not sure whether they can win the bid, these people will vote a lot of wool at one time, making the competition in the hidden bid area extremely fierce.
Many people originally bid and were very satisfied with their bid prices, but they still felt anxious when they saw other bidders, and those who were in a bad mood would bid a second time and raise the bid price higher.
Especially in the few minutes before the opening of the bid, almost half of the people will change their bid price, so that the price will be higher and higher.
This is really a wonderful psychological game.
However, these people competed and competed, and in the end it was the organizer who made the most profit, which was also unavoidable.
Bai Jing looked at the bidding box of A01, and the number "16" was written on the rectangular light screen above, indicating that this piece of wool has already received 16 bids, not necessarily 16 people, but it is indeed in demand.
You know, this is only the second day of Soter's public offering, and most people are still looking at the wool in the open bid area. If this continues, it is unknown how many people will bid when the hidden bid is opened.
It seems that there are many rich people in the empire, more than he imagined.
In fact, the people staying in the area in front of the hidden mark area at this time are all the top families and rich people of the major planets, and they are the people who really stand at the top of the pyramid.
Some of them don't care about the fabrics in the open label area at all, and will put a lot of money on the wool fabrics in the hidden label area, especially the semi-gambling wool fabrics that perform well.
In the dark mark area, the better the performance of the material, the more it should be placed in the front. Anyway, the window is opened for the good performance, and there is a judgment standard.
Therefore, the main force is to vote for A01 now, and I am afraid that few people will have the financial resources to vote in the future.
Bai Jing thought for a while, then scanned the QR code with the bidding device, and voted for an electronic bid.
He filled in the price of 150 million yuan on the bidder, and after pressing the confirmation button, the electronic bid was automatically generated, and the number on the bidder changed to "17".
He knew that it was impossible to get this piece of wool at this price. According to his estimation, the final auction price of A01 should not be lower than 300 million star coins.
However, this method of confusing the public is very useful. Anyway, the Gu family is not short of money, and the performance of this piece of material is so good, it would be strange not to vote.
Someone watching secretly not far away saw Bai Jing's movements, and said something to a hale and hearty old man next to him without a trace.
Gu Yuanchao narrowed his eyes slightly. This old man is Yuan Song, the patriarch of the Yuan family, one of the five great families in the empire.
After bidding, Bai Jing walked a few steps forward and came to the wool fabric numbered A02.
This piece of wool is the same as A01, and it is also authentic Nakapi wool, which has a better color and is easy to gamble.
The A02 is larger than the A01, pear-shaped, about 70 cm long, one end is larger and the other end is smaller, the width and height are between 15-40 cm, and the displayed weight is 126.6 kg.
Naturally, there is no lack of boa belt pine flowers on the surface of the original stone, but there are cracks in the middle and left and right sides of the wool.
Leaving aside the ones on both sides, especially the evil lock in the middle, which is more than ten centimeters long and has radial branches. Judging from the depth, it must have caused harm to the jade inside.
The experienced Shijieshi master opened the window at the place farthest from the crack. The position is relatively low, only two finger widths wide, but judging from the texture of the window, it is a glass-like sun green!
Although this piece of wool has some cracks, judging from the color and size of the window, it is still quite reliable, so it is placed in the second place.
Bai Jing looked at the price tag, 80 million star coins.
This price is definitely not low. After all, this piece of wool is much more uncertain than the first piece of wool.
He used his perception to go deep into the interior along the window, and the sungreen texture of the glass was not affected when it reached the first crack, and continued to extend inward until it reached the evil one.
It's a pity that the evil lock is worthy of being an evil lock. The scattered thin locks completely destroyed the jadeite structure around it, and at least 20 centimeters of it were cracked and turned into broken jade.
Fortunately, this evil lock is in the connecting part of the upper and lower ellipsoids of the "pear-shaped rough stone". Because the lines are concave inward, it is relatively small in size and weighs about 30 kilograms.
And after this evil lock—
Bai Jing's pupils shrank suddenly, because he saw a touch of familiar, emerald green and extremely bright color, which is the glass kind of imperial green! !
At this time, the color band is just the denser part of the python belt and pine flowers. Although it is only about five centimeters in cross-section, it is just in the raised part of the "pear-shaped rough stone".
Bai Jing roughly estimated that it weighed at least ten kilograms, enough to make people crazy!
You must know that the top-grade jadeites are generally very small. The glass emperor green that Bai Jing solved last time was only 3.0 kilograms. This piece weighs a full 10 kilograms. The value of this piece of wool is unimaginable—
Take it, take it!
Bai Jing's breathing was out of balance for a moment, but he quickly adjusted it.
Fearing that he would reveal an expression of joy unconsciously, the young man squatted down, lowered his eyes slightly, carefully inspected the cracks on the wool, and waited until his mood calmed down before getting up.
The number displayed on the bidding box next to it was "18", which was actually two more than the first piece of wool, which surprised Bai Jing, who did not expect that these people were quite gamblers.
This is mainly because the wool of A01 performed so well, the people who voted for A01 were afraid that they would not win the bid, so they put their ideas on the inferior A02.
Another reason is that half of the 7 pieces of wool that Bai Jing gambled up yesterday were cracked. Although these top aristocratic families didn't say it, they secretly remembered it in their hearts, and they would pay special attention to the cracked fabrics.
Seeing the number "18" higher than A01, Bai Jing had to admit that he was a little nervous.
If he bids now, he is not sure how many star coins he will fill out the bidding form.
It is definitely not good if it is low, but if it is high, how high should it be
200000000? 300 million? Or even 350 million
No one's money comes from the wind. There is a difference of 150 million star coins between 200 million and 350 million. With these star coins, you can definitely buy wool with a higher value.
If it can be bought with 200 million star coins, it is naturally impossible to fill in the price tag of 350 million.
In addition to star coins, it is also related to the seller's bid blocking.
Bid blocking refers to a phenomenon in which the wool in the hidden bid area is intercepted by the seller at a high price at the last time before the bid opening, resulting in no one taking pictures in the end.
Because the bid opening in the hidden bid area is the next day, the organizer will send the final bid price to the corresponding seller the night before each bid opening for final confirmation.
When these sellers see that the price of the rough stone is much lower than or much higher than his expectation, they will immediately place a higher bid to stop them, preventing the wool from being sold at the reserve price.
In this way, since he himself has the highest bid, the rough stone will automatically return to the seller, waiting for a chance to fetch a higher price later.
for example:
The base price of B wool is 2 million, and the seller's requirement for it is no less than 6 million stars.
It's a pity that there are very few followers of this piece of wool, and the highest price in the bidding box is 3 million star coins, which is less than half of what he expected.
At this time, the seller will cast a bid of 4 million yuan to cut off the piece of wool, preventing it from being sold at the reserve price, and waiting for other auctions.
This is a type of blocking.
There is also a bid that is blocked because the bid is too high.
Same example:
The base price of B wool is 2 million, and the seller's requirement for it is no less than 6 million stars.
However, for some reason, the highest price in the bidding box was 30 million star coins, which far exceeded his expectations!
In this case, most sellers are very happy.
But there are also a small number of sellers who are worried because they have misjudged their eyes and marked the base price of this piece of wool too low. Maybe this piece of wool is worth a higher price than 30 million.
So he will block the bid with a price of 35 million yuan, and find a professional to re-evaluate it after the public offering is over.
Of course, the final result may be that this piece of wool can no longer be sold at a high price of 30 million, and it will not help if the seller is so regretful that his intestines are green.
In the final analysis, it is nothing but greed.
Although the probability of blocking the bid due to the high transaction price is very low, Bai Jing still has to consider this situation and avoid it as much as possible.
It is not an easy task to consider the value of woolen materials, but also to guess the psychological price of competitors, and to guard against sellers blocking bids.
You know, with Bai Jing's current popularity and attention, once it is discovered that he bids frequently, he will definitely attract suspicion.
At that time, there will definitely be many people bidding with him. If it is auctioned by others, it will be regrettable.
Therefore, he has at most two chances to bid:
Once at the time of the first bid and once before the bid deadline.
The current Baijing is not suitable for bidding.
After all, he has 'seen' the glassy imperial green inside the wool and the glassy emerald except for the cracked part, so it is impossible not to be affected. If he is allowed to bid now, the price will definitely be high .
Gu Yuanchao said at the right time: "Ah Jing, is it difficult to judge? Let's look at other things first, don't worry."
Bai Jingshen took a deep breath: "Okay."
Before 4 o'clock in the afternoon, he finished reading the first 100 pieces of wool in the hidden mark area.
Because they are all half-gambling materials with better performance, it is impossible to fly around like the Mingbiao area, so the speed has dropped significantly.
It is indeed the best 100 pieces of wool in the hidden label area. The jadeite with good texture is revealed from the mouth of each piece. The lowest level is the level of water species and waxy species, and there are even rare colors such as violet and red jadeite.
Of course, the reserve price is equally touching, and there is no price lower than 8 million stars.
In addition to A02, he also took a fancy to three or four pieces of wool, but he half-gambled that the base price of the wool was very high. Although he submitted an electronic bid, Bai Jing felt that the possibility of winning the bid was very low.
***
When Bai Jing and Gu Yuanchao were sitting in the rest area to rest, a sweet broadcast sounded: "Dear guests, the auction of wool fabrics numbered 3001-6000 in the marked area will start in 20 minutes, please go to the auction hall in time to take your seats. "
The broadcast sounded three times, and some of them hadn't selected the wool until now, and grabbed their hair in agitation, randomly picked a few pleasing ones around and wrote them down in the electronic book, waiting to try their luck.
Hasty? Really sloppy.
But for many non-professionals, the wool selected in this way is no different from their careful selection.
Bai Jing waited for the crowd to enter before entering with Gu Yuanchao.
Their seats are all in the VIP area, so don't worry about finding a seat.
Now up for auction is the first set.
The number 3001-3300 and the corresponding reserve price are displayed under the huge holographic screen. The only thing Bai Jing needs to pay attention to is the number 3300.
As soon as 4 o'clock arrived, the auctioneer briefly introduced himself and announced the start of the 10-minute countdown.
The people who experienced yesterday's bidding visibly relaxed a lot, and there were voices talking to each other.
Because they all know that the last minute, or the last 10 seconds is when the battle really begins!
However, the face of the man who had not participated in the bidding yesterday still had an extremely nervous expression, his eyes were fixed on the wool he wanted to bid on, and he did not relax for a moment.
There is a stark contrast between the two.
The base price of No. 3300 wool was 1 million star coins. In the first nine minutes, only two bids were made, and the highest price was 2 million star coins.
Bai Jing entered the price of 6 million on the bidder, but felt that it was not safe, so he planned to change it to 8 million.
But when pressing the numbers, he thought of the slight gap between 131 million and 132 million, so he added another 300,000 to the original.
When the auctioneer reminded that there were still 30 seconds left, the atmosphere became visibly serious. Everyone stared at the price at the bottom of the big screen with wide eyes, not even daring to blink.
The auctioneer reminded: "There are 10 seconds left, 10, 9, 8..."
Before the words were finished, all the prices below the 300 yuan wool began to flicker crazily, and the speed was dizzying.
With his extraordinary eyesight, Bai Jing saw the light on the No. 3300 wool beating several times, the number was getting higher and higher, and his heart was beating violently, in case... .
"3, 2—"
It was too late to change the time in the last three seconds, Bai Jing gritted his teeth and pressed the confirmation button.
At the last second, he watched helplessly as the highest price of No. 3300 rose to 8 million, and finally stopped at the figure of 8.3 million.
'so close… '
Bai Jing stopped breathing at that moment, and only now he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the No. 3300 wool was still taken by him. It's just that he really didn't expect that this piece of wool would fetch such a high price, more than 8 times more!
It is obviously a very ordinary material, except that it is a little bigger, it is not special, so strange——
If Bai Jing had read the data analysis, he would have found that among the 300 pieces of wool fabrics, the transaction price of the good-performing fabrics had dropped by 20% compared to yesterday, while the cracked and mediocre fabrics were 50% higher than yesterday! !
As for the reason, it is naturally because the 7 pieces of wool that Bai Jing gambled up yesterday were either cracked or not performing well, but he got out of them worth tens of millions of emeralds!
With such a high temptation, people naturally rushed to follow suit.
Well, so he had to blame himself.
In the following time, Bai Jing found that out of the 16 pieces of wool he wrote down in the electronic notebook, half of the prices were sky-high, and two pieces even exceeded 10 million! !
The boy's beautiful brown eyes widened slightly. The base price was only 1 million. Are these people crazy?
He glanced down at the notes on the water and weight of the jadeite in the electronic book: Among the two pieces of woolen jadeite, one is worth about 12 million yuan, and the other is less than 10 million yuan, so you can't earn any star coins at all.
In the end, Bai Jing only got 5 pieces of wool, but with the 3300 number, it can be regarded as a good harvest.
The author has something to say:
small theater:
Bai Jing (takes out a small notebook):? ?
Why is the auction price so high
Everyone: Guess.
Bai Jing:
Everyone: far away in the sky, close in sight.
Bai Jing: Who is it
Everyone: It's you, it's you, it's you!
