The face and status of the old man of the Zhou family were much greater than Tang Yi imagined, and he personally came forward, and six of the other people who participated in the auction agreed on the spot that they were willing to transfer the gold bars free of charge.

They are all big guys, and no one lacks the one or two million.

For them, it is absolutely cost-effective to be able to use a box of gold bars to make the Zhou family owe a favor.

As for the remaining three, they have their own considerations and are unwilling to transfer the gold bars.

Although there is still a box of gold bars away from Tang Yi's expected goal, it is already very good overall.

Coupled with his own box, and Chengling and Zhou Cheng's box of gold bars, a total of nine boxes of gold bars, he also has the strength to compete for the purchase qualification of Jiuyang Bronze Venerable.

With the help of Mi Xue and others, there was no difficulty in transporting the gold bars to Port City.

On the morning of the third day, Tang Yi and Chengling took a plane from the imperial capital to Hong Kong City.

Zhou Cheng originally planned to fly with them, but Tang Yi politely refused, not because he didn't want to go with Zhou Cheng, but because he was worried that he would fall into the eyes of someone with a heart, and there would be complications at that time.

At half past seven in the evening, Tang Yi, who was wearing a turtleneck sweater inside and a plaid woolen coat outside, was carrying a 100-pound black suitcase in his hand, and rushed to the auction venue with an invitation letter with Chengling.

There is still half an hour before the auction will officially begin, and at this time, people are already entering the auction one after another.

Standing aside and observing for a while, Tang Yi found that everyone who entered the venue was struggling to carry a box in their hands, and the contents could be guessed with their toes.

"It's really hard for these big guys who are used to being pampered on weekdays, hehe. ”

Tang Yi glanced at the people who entered the arena and said with a light smile of deep meaning.

"Being tired of being a dog is just making a wedding dress for others. ”

A hint of coldness flashed in Chengling's eyes, and he smiled coldly and disdainfully.

He has been playing since elementary school, Tsing Yi Wusheng hugs two doors, and he also has real kung fu under his hands, although a hundred gold bars with a net weight of 500 grams are not light, but it is not so difficult to carry in his hands.

At least not like others, you need to blush and hold your neck with your hands.

Tang Yi was even more relaxed, the big black leather box looked light and fluttering in his hand, where it looked like a box of gold bars.

"Let's go, it's almost time, let's go in first. ”

Tang Yi greeted, then lifted the box and walked towards the door.

As soon as the two arrived at the door, they were stopped by four staff members in crisp suits.

The arrangement of these four people is also a bit exquisite, two of them have the faces of foreigners, and the other two have the same yellow skin and black eyes as Tang Yi.

As for whether the nationality or not belongs to China, it remains to be examined.

"Sir, please show me your invitation. ”

A young man with a western face said politely in English.

Tang Yi, who was carrying a suitcase, took out the invitation letter in his arms without saying a word and handed it over.

The latter respectfully accepted the invitation letter, and after some complicated verification, he carefully compared Tang Yi's face before handing over the invitation letter and said respectfully: "Mr. Tang, your seat is at No. 51, and someone will check the suitcase in your hand when you enter the door and turn right, and then someone will take you to your seat." ”

Tang Yi nodded, didn't bother to say a word to him, pursed his lips and walked in with the box.

Checking the suitcase and bringing it to the seat, Chengling also came over with the suitcase.

Chengling's seat was at number 52, right next to him.

The layout of the auction hall was completely different from what Tang Yi expected.

Originally, he thought it was the kind of auction hall in the movie, and everyone would bid by holding up signs during the bidding.

In fact, when he arrived at his seat, he found that all 52 seats were separated by separate bags.

It is divided into two floors, fan-shaped towards the auction table, and no one knows who is sitting next to each other.

If he hadn't accurately known Chengling's seat number and heard his footsteps, I'm afraid Tang Yi wouldn't know that it was Chengling sitting next to him.

Cheng Ling came to his private room, and as soon as the staff who led the way left, he dialed Tang Yi's phone.

"Old Tang, are you in the private room next to me?"

"In. ”

"I feel like things are more complicated than we thought, do you think it's going to be boring?"

"Don't worry, act when the opportunity arises, no matter what, we will decide on the Nine Sheep Bronze Venerable!"

"Stay in touch at all times. ”

"Good. ”

As soon as Chengling's phone hung up, Zhou Cheng's phone called in again, and the content of the conversation between the two was similar to what Chengling said, and he was also worried that there might be unexpected changes in tonight's auction.

After chatting with Zhou Cheng on the phone, Tang Yi hung up the phone.

As soon as the arc hung up, his face turned cold.

The organizer's adoption of such a separate auction was indeed a big surprise to him.

If you want to say that there is no cat that can't see the light at all, I'm afraid fools won't believe it.

But the matter has come to this, and he has no better response for a while, the only thing he can do is to cheer up and act at the opportunity.

It would be good if the 52 private rooms were separated, Tang Yi was most worried that only some of the private rooms were separated, and the other part of the private rooms were actually connected, and some people were even in a private room at all.

Half an hour was fleeting.

When all the participants entered the hall and took their seats, the lights of the auction table suddenly brightened.

A middle-aged man in a tuxedo, who looked to be in his early forties and had a good temperament, stepped onto the stage, smiled politely and looked around the 52 private rooms opposite, bowed and saluted before saying loudly: "Gentlemen, ladies, good evening." It is an honor to have you to participate in tonight's auction, and on behalf of this auction house, I would like to express my sincerest respect and gratitude to all of you. ”

"Before the auction begins, let me introduce the rules of tonight's auction. Tonight, we have prepared a total of 12 precious works of art for you, except for the last finale, the first 11 lots can be auctioned normally......"

The auctioneer spoke slowly, standing on the stage and talking.

The auction rules he introduced were basically the same as Tang Yi's previous understanding.

Except for the last lot, the Jiuyang Bronze Statue, the remaining eleven lots can be paid normally by transfer and cash.

The Nine Sheep Bronze Venerable needs to be paid with gold bars.

To be precise, Jiuyang Bronze needs to bid for gold bars to purchase qualifications, and the final actual transaction price is ten times the total value of gold bars!

That is to say, if Jiuyang Bronze Zun finally auctioned a gold bar worth 100 million, the actual transaction price is 1.1 billion.

100 million purchase rights, 1 billion real value.

This kind of auction method Tang Yi had never heard of or seen before.

The previous rules sounded normal, but the auctioneer's last sentence made Tang Yi's face change in vain, and he stood up from the sofa all of a sudden.

What he feared the most happened anyway!

The last auction rule read out by the auctioneer should be the auction discipline: in order for the auction to proceed normally and without external interference, the organizer will use technological means to block the electronic signals of the whole venue during the period between the official start and the end of the auction.

Everyone was separated in their own private room, and if the mobile phone signal was blocked, everyone became deaf and could only fight alone.

After Tang Yi read out this rule, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it for the first time, and sure enough, there was no signal.

Immediately afterwards, he took out the mobile phone that Ning Zhiheng personally distributed, although the signal was also three bars weaker, but fortunately, there was still one bar left.

He originally wanted to inform Mi Xue and the others outside, but after thinking about it, he dispelled this idea, first, it was useless to tell them what was happening inside, and second, he was worried that once he contacted the outside world, he might be able to detect the signal.

After discovering that the mobile phone signal was completely blocked, Zhou Cheng and Chengling were also very anxious.

However, due to the rule that they are not allowed to leave the private room until the end of the auction, they can only sit in the private room and do things in a hurry.

"It seems that I still think things too simply, since someone has locked the Nine Sheep Bronze Venerable, then I will definitely prepare for the future. It's no wonder, if there is no difficulty at all, I'm afraid this incident will not be handed over to the nameless members to deal with, is the two-star mission so high, and what should the highest nine-star mission become?"

Tang Yi inhaled hard, sat on the sofa and gently kneaded the bridge of his nose to quickly calm himself down.

As long as the Nine Sheep Bronze Venerable is still in the auction venue, as long as those guys who are hidden in the dark still want to steal treasures through legal channels, there will definitely be flaws!

And Tang Yi didn't believe it at all, only one person or one force was fighting the idea of Jiuyang Bronze Venerable.

For those guys who hide in the shadows, why is he not hidden in the shadows?

He believes that in this case, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to cover the sky with one hand, at most, they have their own back hand.

Tang Yi had investigated in advance before coming to this auction house in Hong Kong City, and the background of this auction house was mysterious and complex, and it has existed for nearly a hundred years so far, and attaches great importance to credibility and abiding by the rules.

Even if someone in the auction house will secretly favor one of the parties, they will never dare to go too far.

Once something bad leaks out in the auction house, it is undoubtedly smashing your own signboard with your own hands.

Tang Yi believes that in a world-class auction house like this, there are already countless treasures in hand, and although the Jiuyang Bronze Venerable is precious, it will not let them bet on that century-old golden signboard.

The reason why so many rules are set may be for the sake of fairness, as far as possible to eliminate the possibility of all parties playing tricks.

"I want to see what flowers you can play, there is nothing that a wish can't do, if there is, then make another wish, if you still can't do it, then it must be the wrong way for me to make a wish!"

After sorting out the clues and figuring out the key points, Tang Yi sneered and poured himself a glass of champagne, gently shaking the champagne glass with Erlang's legs crossed and waiting for the auction to officially start.

The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, since others are not in a hurry, and he has the system by his side and Mi Xue and others are planning outside, there is no need to worry.
