This night, the Queen's undercurrent is surging, and in addition to Patia, there are many forces that secretly communicate with each other.

Among them, Shamash of the Jewish Consortium and Lord Lovihan of the Continental Chamber of Commerce stayed together all night, and if it wasn't for the situation, they probably discussed some kind of conspiracy.

His Highness Hashim wailed for the night in his luxurious room, and the accompanying doctor took a great deal of effort to close his jaw.

The president of Sansho Co., Ltd., Kuro Hiraning, stood on the side of the ship and blew the cold wind all night. He raised his eyes to look at the starry sky, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth from time to time.

In addition, Colonel Wei Kaicheng and representatives of the H country auction group met by chance in the smoking room, and the two sides had a "frank exchange" on the history of the jade seal of the country. In the end, the representative of country H was beaten so that he could not find his shirt, and it can be said that he really "met frankly".

Maozi's delegation from the north took over the bar on the Queen, and the group almost emptied the Queen's cellar, and finally Liki had to move out a lot of alcohol fuel to save the day. Maozi's representative was Brigadier General Bancroft, a real Caucasian man.

This time, Maozi's Orthodox Church joined the battle for the Ark of the Covenant, which belonged to a shot with and without dates. Of course, they also want it, but they are shy. They have been poor for many years, but fortunately they will be happy as long as they have vodka.

Mr. President had prepared a reserve of 1 million euros for the auction for Bantroft, and Mr. Brigadier General felt that it would be better to exchange all the money for spirits than to be embarrassed by the bidding.

All in all, that's the general situation of the eighty-odd bidding teams on the eve of the auction. There are only a few who have the strength to participate in the competition, and the others are all here to travel, and by the way, they worship the artifact at close range.

These are all stared at by Lightning, and they have nothing to do with Sun Xiang for the time being. Master Sun returned to the cabin belonging to the Huaguo auction group and slept peacefully. Until it was almost dawn, I heard a faint cry.

It turned out that Yu Xiaoyue came back at some point, she didn't know where to get the key, and sneaked into Sun Xiang's room. Then lay on the head of Sun Xiang's bed and cried.

Master Sun sat up with a yawn, pretending to be unaware and asked, "Xiaoyue, what's wrong?"

He was previously annoyed that Yu Xiaoyue was running around disobediently, so he ordered her to teach her a lesson. Now I regret it a little, because I saw that Miss Yu, who was heartless and heartless on weekdays, was so wronged, and I thought that Liji had taught her too harshly.

What a feud in the end!

Miss Yu cried and chirped, and her speech was intermittent.

"I pulled Yuan Shaogang at night...... Sneaked into their kitchen...... (Crying)"

"Well, then what. ”

And then ...... Caught by the woman...... (crying) ......"

"And then?"

"That woman is terrible...... She pointed at us with *****...... Push us ...... (Crying)"

"What are you forced for?"

"Push us ...... A thousand bowls were washed...... Woowoowoowoooo......oo I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm !!."

Miss Yu cried and grabbed the ground, and suddenly felt that the bed was a little shaky.

She immediately wiped away her tears and threatened, "Are you laughing?"

Sun Xiang: "I don't, how can I laugh at such a sad thing?"

"Why are the corners of your mouth upturning?"

"That's my mouth is a little dry and I think I need to drink a glass of water. ”

Sun Xiang got up and picked up the cup. He turned his back and took a sip of water. And then

"Poof!"

I couldn't hold back, and it all squirted out.

Miss Yu bit her lip in anger, she jumped up and threw the pillow on Sun Xiang's head, and then slammed the door.

"Wait a minute. ”

Sun Xiang wiped his mouth dry and called to stop her.

"What are you doing!" Miss Yu looked unkind.

"Xiaoyue, from now on, you will have to practice sword with me every day. Master Sun said seriously.

"Huh?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At 10 a.m. that day, the auction announcement began. Early in the morning, many bidders had already occupied the auction hall, the same hall that the experts had identified at the beginning.

When Sun Xiang and Yu Xiaoyue walked into the hall, Colonel Wei Kaicheng had already taken the front position with Huaguo's bidding group. He seems to have been cared for by the above before he came, so he completely ignored Yu Xiaoyue, maybe out of some political considerations.

But in terms of attitude, it is still very polite.

Seeing the two coming, he stood up and shook hands with Sun Xiang and greeted him. When Yu Xiaoyue saw the jade seal in the display case, she immediately ran over and watched through the railing. And Sun Xiang stood in place and talked to Colonel Wei.

"Mr. Sun slept well last night? The sea was rough and rough, and many people would get seasick on the first night. ”

"With the Chinese army by our side, our people will sleep peacefully no matter where they are. Sun Xiang said with a smile.

This just right compliment obviously made Wei Kaicheng very useful, he put down the somewhat restrained officer's stand, and said politely: "Without your support, we soldiers are nothing." For example, in this auction, if it weren't for the people of the whole country donating money one after another, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to bring back the jade seal. ”

The purpose of this auction is to investigate the traitors who colluded with the United States within the Luhe Group, but Sun Xiang's purpose is not only that.

The heirloom jade seal has been kept by him for many years.

In the hundreds of years, many times, it was not that he was reluctant to hand over the jade seal to the authorities.

But at that time, the Chinese country was poor and weak, and the people were not able to make a living, and he was unwilling to hand over this treasure symbolizing Chinese orthodoxy to the uncompetitive authorities.

However, in recent decades, China has been thriving, and the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment, and there has been a faint Han and Tang dynasty heroes. Sun Xiang felt that it would be very justifiable to return the jade seal of the country in an appropriate way at this time.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Sun Xiang set the jade seal of the country to the bidding group of Huaguo. As for the money, it was just a left-handed change for a right-handed one, and in the end it remained in Huaguo.

At that moment, Sun Xiang casually asked: "Is the competition fierce? I heard that you had a fight with the representative of country H last night. ”

Wei Kaicheng hesitated for a moment and said: "There is no big problem on the side of country H and Yue, our UnionPay has conducted an investigation, and their capital pool is very shallow, so it does not pose a threat to us." I'm worried about that over there. ”

Wei Kaicheng said, his chin raised, referring to the island country bidding group.

Leading the team over there was none other than the president of Sansho Co., Ltd., Maro Hiraning.

This is a middle-aged man who looks a little aggressive, and his eyes are wide-eyed, making one suspect that this is a hyperthyroid patient.

And his tall, strong body doesn't look like an island man.

As the largest consortium of the island country, Pingning Maro was entrusted by the island country** and the royal family to bid this time. The island nation is already rich. Sanshang Co., Ltd. has been operating in the island country for hundreds of years, and their capital pool is also bottomless.

At this time, he stood in front of the display case of the heirloom jade seal, and did not show a longing gaze like his companions. Instead, he pinched his chin, not knowing what to think.

Perhaps noticing Sun Xiang and Wei Kaicheng's gaze, he glanced at Sun Xiang. Their gazes briefly met in the air, then quickly staggered.

"What's wrong?" Wei Kaicheng noticed that Sun Xiang suddenly fell silent, and asked out loud.

"No, nothing. ”

Sun Xiang was silent on the surface, but in his heart, he silently remembered the name of Pingning Malu.

This is a person worthy of the attention of Sun Da's head.

Compared with the cautious onlookers on the side of the jade seal of the country, the Ark of the Ten Commandments is much more serious.

Almost all the bidders on the European side lined up to see them. They knelt and wept, prayed to the Ark of the Covenant with their respective religious rites, and then stood up for the next group.

A good auction was made as lively as a temple fair to worship Buddha.

Regarding the disposal of the Ark of the Ten Commandments, Sun Xiang's purpose was purely to make money.

Sun Da's family has a big business, and those expenses on weekdays are all real money. Otherwise, where did his planes and satellites come from? Do you really think that the head of Sun Da folded a plane with paper and blew it out?

In line with the principle of returning the property to the original owner, Sun Xiang really wanted to sell the ark of the covenant directly to the original owner. But the history of the three Semitic religions is a complete mess, and even today, it is still getting more and more chaotic.

Look at the several religious forces that are almost about to fight during this time, one is more justified than the other, and one is more orthodox than the other. Sun Xiang himself didn't know who he should sell to, and he didn't bother to this kind of foreign mind, so he would simply get the one with the highest price.

At half-past ten, Lizzie finally came out from behind the stage. She wore a rather smart deacon dress, and she also got a pair of gold-rimmed flat glasses to wear, and she looked like an elite manager.

When they walked past Yu Xiaoyue, the two glared at each other and let out a cold laugh.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction is now open. Let me explain the auction rules first. ”

Because this auction is two legendary treasures, and the bidders are all super forces of countries and regions, the transaction amount will definitely be calculated in the sky. Therefore, the auction rules are different from ordinary auctions.

The first is the way the transaction is conducted, as any currency is accepted for the Queen's auction, but for ease of calculation, the value of the currency will eventually be converted into euros at the real-time exchange rate.

In addition, all verified credit vouchers are accepted for this auction except cash. This includes stocks, options, bonds and various types of business contracts.

All bidding teams need to deposit all cash and vouchers into the organizer's trust account before bidding, forming a fixed pool of funds. The bidder's offer can only be quoted within the scope of the pool. If there is an overflow, the gap in the pool must be filled on the spot, otherwise the quotation will be invalid.

Secondly, the live auction does not take the form of bidding, but adopts the method of bidding. The bidder writes the final bid in a sealed envelope and gives it to the auctioneer. The highest bidder wins, but the winner of the auction only needs to pay the bid of the second highest bidder plus $1.

For example, if A bids 100 million and B bids 200 million, naturally B wins the auction, but in the end, Party B only needs to pay 100 million plus 1 yuan.

This kind of auction method of bidding does not seem to be exciting enough, and there is no such fun as bidding on the spot and fighting each other to get rich. There was no auctioneer with a small wooden hammer and shouting demagogically: 10 million for the first time! 10 million for the second time!

But if you think about what is being auctioned, can it be the same? This auction is not a collection of books such as a bottle or a manuscript, but the legitimacy and belief of Eastern and Western societies.

The final transaction price must be appalling!

With such an auction, it is impossible to engage in the kind of children's game of live bidding. The quotation of each bidding team is a figure that has been carefully considered and comprehensively considered by the domestic finance team. No auction representative would suddenly raise his bid out of excitement or for the sake of pretense.

Therefore, this is a lackluster auction in terms of process, and the success or failure depends entirely on the depth of the pool of funds submitted by the party.

It is worth mentioning that the winner of the bid will only have to pay the price of the second highest bidder. This appears to be hurting the interests of the auctioneer.

In fact, if you study this auction rule in depth, you will understand that this method can guarantee the highest price for each bidder. And it's also a very fair mechanism to ensure the legitimate interests of both buyers and sellers.
