  This private room is located on the second floor of Sotheby's London headquarters auction, facing the auction podium with a very wide view. On the side of the rostrum is the off-site auctioneer's agent isolated by a layer of glass. More than 30 agents are holding phones to communicate with the receivers far away.

   The content of the communication is very simple, that is, the agent and the acceptor directly discuss which gold artwork to auction? How high the auction price needs to be set. In front of the auction podium, there are rows of high-end seats, all of which are sofas of calfskin producers.

  These are seats for those who participate in Sotheby's auction house, bidders. Those who come to Sotheby's auction house headquarters are either rich or expensive. Of course, these leather sofas need to be very comfortable. There are also various drinks on the front table.

   Around the venue from the second floor to the fourth floor are large and small private rooms, and those private rooms are also divided into levels. For example, the one facing the rostrum is the highest-level A-level private room, the left is B-level, and the right is C-level. The area of ​​the private rooms is basically the same, but the decoration inside is different.

  A-level private rooms are the most luxurious, with large floor-to-ceiling windows and air conditioners, and the room is full of precious furniture. There is also a small wine cabinet, as well as a computer auction device and other facilities. Of course, the floor-to-ceiling windows in front of both the Class A and Class B private rooms are all SLR glass.

   When you look up at the auction room, all the glass of the private room has turned into a mirror, so you can't see what's inside the private room at all. The auction scene was clearly seen in the private room, and this was done to protect the privacy of these distinguished guests. After all, do you need 80% of the auction items to come to the auction? They were all bought by anonymous buyers, who do not know who these buyers are? This is the tradition of Sotheby's and Christie's, and the confidentiality work is well done.

   When Yang Yong came to the private room in the center of the second floor, he was very satisfied, because the auction would take four hours. Continuous high-intensity fighters will feel very hungry and thirsty, so there are various world-famous wines in the wine cabinet, and the annual cost of high-end private rooms exceeds 300,000 pounds. It is not too much to put a few high-end red wines in the room for guests to drink.

   Of course, these famous wines in the world are all common goods, and some Lafite red wines are products of recent years, and those wines that are called the king of wine in 1982 are not seen. Fortunately, Yang Yong eats and drinks, and takes his own inventory with him wherever he goes.

   When I opened the insulated suitcase, there was cold air inside, two bottles of 1982 Latour red wine. The other box contains food, basically convenience foods such as sushi, toast covered with butter jam and caviar, and you can eat it.

   After all the food and drinks were placed, Yang Yong sat on the sofa with a large floor-to-ceiling window one meter away. You can know what's going on outside, and after half an hour, the auction begins. At this time, Yang Yong picked up his red wine and watched the auction scene with great interest.

   Today's No. 1 auctioneer is a beautiful woman, wearing very revealing clothes, obviously taking the **** route. But don't look at this beauty and think it's a vase. In fact, this beauty is quite famous. After the auction items in the hands of this beautiful auctioneer are basically at a premium of more than 300%, the second auctioneer of the London headquarters of Sotheby's auction house has been firmly seated.

   The first auction item has nothing to do with Yang Yong at all. It is a statue of an ancient Roman figure. The figure carved out of marble is the most famous Caesar. It's a little broken, but you can't stand this human head statue that was formed for more than two thousand years. Even a broken stone is worth a little money, not to mention that it is a very rare figure from a famous hand.

   So this statue got off to a good start. The auction price was set at £500,000, but it rose to £700,000 within minutes. In addition, the beautiful auctioneer's ability to adjust the atmosphere of the scene is excellent, the atmosphere of the scene is extremely hot, the effect of the opening has been achieved, and the final transaction price is 850,000 pounds.

   Don't underestimate the 850,000 pounds, which is equivalent to 1.5 million US dollars. After winning the good start, the atmosphere of the scene slowly reached its peak. A gold statue made of an Andean eagle sent by Yang Yong anonymously is set to be auctioned at No. 10.

   This Inca-style Andean condor gold statue, although only ten centimeters, weighs no more than three hundred grams. However, there are some pictographs of a family drawn on the condor. This sacred object for prayer is equivalent to a Catholic cross, so the collection prospect is very good.

  The appearance of the Andean condor statue caused a sensation on the scene, and the Sotheby's auction house was attended by famous collectors. There are not many golden works of art represented by the Inca civilization. It can be said that it is not an exaggeration. I did not expect that it can be copied today. There was actually a statue of a condor used for prayer in the Inca civilization, which immediately detonated the atmosphere of the scene.

  Everyone talked a lot and showed great interest, especially the auctioneers outside the venue should give orders to their agents. They all recorded the auction prices in their notebooks, and looked at the rostrum with a green light. After the beauty auctioneer saw that the effect had been achieved, he began to introduce the origin of this Inca civilization prayer relic, the Andean condor.

   Of course, it is an introduction. In fact, most of them are made up and made up, mainly to activate the atmosphere of the scene. Let these bigwigs pay more. After all, the Inca civilization is too mysterious, but you can't deny that the Inca Empire was strong. These so-called golden statues are nothing but sacred objects used by ordinary people.

  The more gold is, the less valuable it is. Gold was just an ordinary metal during the prosperous period of the Inca Empire. Otherwise, it is impossible that every year when the Inca kings offered sacrifices, they would throw a large amount of gold sacrifices into the Titicaca Lake. The Inca Empire was called a rich man, but it was not as barbaric as we imagined.

  This Andean Condor started at a staggering £500,000, with no less than £50,000 per auction. Good guy, the beautiful auctioneer just rang the hammer for the start of the auction, all the bidding brands Lala were raised, and the price of 500,000 pounds was fired to 950,000 pounds in less than three minutes.

   It has been fired to 1.5 million in less than five minutes. At this time, the one on the sidelines began to exert force. And those who are really interested in the statue of the electric condor have also shot one after another, and these characters have money in their hands. The starting price of each auction was more than £100,000. After fierce competition, an off-market auctioneer finally won the Andean condor statue for £2.5 million.

   Others don’t know the origin of this Andean condor, Yang Yong knows it too well, this is his first lot, and he didn’t expect it to be auctioned for 2.5 million pounds. It's really worth it! What a wise decision to send these Inca gold works of art to European auctions.

  The American market is just rampant with nouveau riche, and the European nobles are the real collectors. To make a fortune at all costs for a good piece of art, or to travel across the ocean to Europe for what?
