Chapter 1641: Treasure Fighting Club in Liuyunbao City

After all, for everyone, activities can only have a sense of accomplishment if they participate in them.

For most people, they have never been exposed to antiques at all, or they don’t have any valuable treasures at home. Even if they come, they can only watch the fun on the sidelines.

However, almost everyone knows what betting means.

They can determine who wins at the start of the event.

Of course, compared with real gambling, the amount of bets is still relatively small and within the controllable range.

"Okay, you can arrange it yourself." Ma Zhen nodded. In fact, this matter should be discussed with the manager of Liuyunbao City.

"Mr. Ma, are you interested in becoming a banker?"

"I don't want to be a banker." Ma Zhen refused directly. He was unwilling to participate in gambling, and even asked him to be the banker.

Rather than sitting on the bank, he prefers to personally participate in the treasure fighting meeting.

"Then we'll see." The old man had an excited look on his face, as if he was calculating how much money he could make this time.

After the old man left, Ma Zhencai sneered and said: "Do you really think that you can make a profit without losing money by sitting on the bank?"

Two days passed quickly.

Liuyunbao City.

As an ancient and popular activity, treasure fighting is widely popular in Chinese collecting circles and has a rich traditional history.

But the treasure fighting club in Liuyunbao City was the first treasure fighting club to appear in public.

In the past, treasure fighting meetings were usually held in hotels or outdoor venues designated by collectors. The people watching the treasure fighting were also well-known people in the industry. They usually sat together and were not open to the public, full of a mysterious atmosphere.

The business district of Liuyunbao City was divided, and the venue was decorated with lights.

In the center of the venue, there is a high platform.

There is a large table on the table, with various gems, precious metals, jade and other valuables placed on it.

These items are the stakes that participants use when gambling.

Around the table, there will be people holding bamboo sticks.

They are participants in the treasure fight.

The staff stood upright all around.

He is responsible for collecting the treasures of the participants and supervising the fairness of the entire game process.

In addition, there was another stall outside the venue, which was crowded with people.

It turned out to be a gambling game set up.

The participants are not all dog gamblers, there are also some brave and courageous young people.

They loudly discussed the information about the contestants in the field, and made pointers in order to show that they knew what they were doing.

Infected by them, people kept putting their own bets on the table.

The treasure fighting meeting has not yet started, but the betting process on the treasure fighting meeting is extremely intense.

Participants were sometimes cheering and sometimes silent.

They devoted themselves wholeheartedly to this game, hoping to win the game.

The old man walked to the stage, picked up the microphone, and said with a smile: "Everyone, please be quiet."

He nailed it, and no one had any objections.

It's just that the sound of the street cannot be completely isolated, it is only slightly softened.

"Hello everyone, I am the organizer of this treasure fighting meeting. At the same time, I am also responsible for the appraisal of porcelain." The old man introduced himself in a leisurely manner.

He knew this was his best chance to promote himself.

Seeing so many people in the market, the old man seemed very happy.

He spent a lot of money to sponsor this treasure fighting event.

Others are not familiar with it, but Ma Zhen is his old partner.

He recommends people to participate in the treasure fighting club, and of course he has confidence in his heart.

Especially after I heard that Lin Ran had participated in the last family competition, and everyone was familiar with Lin Ran's name as "Little Master Lin".

They knew something about Lin Ran's past affairs and knew that there were more than one or two treasure appraisers who had failed in his hands.

But there are always people who don’t know.

And many people heard that the people participating in this competition came from major treasure appraisal firms.

Therefore, many people place bets on their opponents.

"I am not talented, I am an expert in appraising porcelain." The old man smiled, "So I will compare the porcelain they have saved next. If you have any opinions, you are welcome to put them forward."

After all, as a referee, it is inevitable that the penalty will be very biased, and there will always be people who will jump out to express opposition.

"Boss Huang is still an expert in porcelain appraisal?"

"I only knew that he liked to collect calligraphy and paintings. I didn't know that he had researched on porcelain."

"You don't know this. Boss Huang almost entered the museum back then."

"So awesome? Then why not go?"

"Now is the era of entrepreneurship. People with skills can earn more by going overseas, right?"

"Makes sense."

"Then I want to take a look at the treasure fighting competition organized by Boss Huang this time. What rare treasures are there?"

Boss Huang is obviously a celebrity on this street, and many other shop owners also come out to join in the fun and support him.

Among the other two appraisal experts, one is particularly knowledgeable about calligraphy and painting, and the other is relatively knowledgeable about bronzes.

Because it was a private conference, the official did not send anyone to participate.

Therefore, the judges are all masters hired from various treasure appraisal shops, basically from the shops on this street.

Ma Zhen sat quietly in the audience. He didn't like to appear in public.

Looking at the lively scene on the stage, he thought to himself: "Lin Ran, please don't misinterpret my meaning."

He was just conducting a marketing event this time, and he didn't want too famous antiques to attract other people's attention.

Ma Zhen only glanced at the items brought by the audience on the stage, and immediately felt that the level of people here in appreciating treasures was really low. They brought all kinds of scraps and scraps, and he basically looked down on most things.

But these are just the most basic contestants.

There are also some more prestigious contestants who have not arrived yet.

The atmosphere at the venue was already heated up, and everyone was very excited. It was the first time to see such an event.

In the impression of ordinary people, antiques belong to the circle of wealthy people.

They usually have some ancient things at home, such as wooden tables handed down from their ancestors. To them, these things have no other feeling except being worn out.

But I don’t know why?Some things will feel unusual if they fall into the hands of rich people.

Maybe this is circle culture.

Many people have also heard about the Treasure Fighting Club. According to rumors, it was an activity that started during the Warring States Period.

Everyone is excited to see major collectors displaying their lifetime collections at the market.

Lin Ran and Guan Yun also arrived at the venue at this time.

But they did not rush to the stage, but gathered around below.
