There was no word all night, and the next day was the day the auction began.

Except for the Golden Buddha changed to a secret auction, the rest of the cultural relics are still auctioned publicly. This time, among the cultural relics dealers who came to Omura, except for Saburo Sei and Cai Meilin, no one else was interested in the Golden Buddha, so the secret shooting did not cause any waves, and even got the approval of several cultural relics dealers, thinking that this was in line with the rules.

Cai Meilin expressed several protests to Katsuuragawa and threatened to withdraw from the auction. However, in the end, he still put on a reluctant appearance, went to the auction site, and also participated in the bidding of several lots, leaving the impression that Katsuuragawa did not particularly care about the Golden Buddha.

The auction lasted a whole day, and it was only in the evening that Katsuuragawa began to announce the bidding for the Golden Buddha. Cai Meilin quoted a price of $7 million as agreed with Li Yu, and muttered the bid list to the trader. When handing over the order, he repeatedly asked for open bidding to prevent black-box operation, but the trader ignored him and just took the order and left.

There are a total of 5 merchants who bid for the Golden Buddha, and in addition to Cai Meilin and Saburo Sei, there are 3 other merchants. However, the price offered by the three people was even lower, they just took a fancy to the value of the Golden Buddha itself, and there was no historical sentiment or anything like that, so it was naturally impossible to make a too high premium.

"What is Boss Cai's offer?"

In the tent, Katsuuragawa asked the tattooed man who was in charge of opening the bid.

"It's 7 million." The man replied.

"Where's Sei?"

"8 million."

Katsuuragawa laughed and said: "Hahahaha, this fool, he won't do the public auction that he said he would, he would rather spend an extra 1 million to open a dark bid, and he doesn't know which line the nerve is wrong." ”

"Mr. Sei's offer is the highest, can I notify them that I have won the bid?" The tattooed man asked.

Katsu Puchuan nodded, then shook his head again, rolled his eyes, and said, "No, we have to add more fire." Come. You go and get a list again, fill in Boss Cai's name, and then the price...... Just fill in 10 million. ”

The arrangement stopped, and Katsuuragawa asked the tattooed man to invite Xie Hongming and Saburo Sei over. I saw the two of them enter the door. Katsuuragawa frowned as if he had eaten coptis, not to mention that he was miserable.

"Mr. Xie, things are very troublesome." Katsuuragawa said to Xie Hongming in the A dialect.

Saburo Sei couldn't understand A Mandarin, so he could only point to Xie Hongming for translation. Xie Hongming muttered in his heart while translating. He understood that Katsuuragawa put on this appearance, obviously trying to make a name for himself.

"Mr. Sheng, if there is any trouble, please tell me about it." After listening to the content of Saburo Sei's interpretation, he said to Katsuuragawa. He spoke Japanese, so naturally he had to rely on Xie Hongming to translate it to Katsuuragawa.

"Mr. Sei, I have reconciled Mr. Xi's friendship, and you must know about it. Mr. Xie is my savior, and he made the request. I will never refuse. Yesterday, Mr. Xie said that the auction of the Golden Buddha would be changed to a secret auction, and asked us to leave the Golden Buddha to you no matter what, and I have agreed to this. However, the price quoted by Mr. Sei ......," Katsuuragawa said this, and he seemed embarrassed to drag it out.

"Didn't Mr. Xie already tell you about 8 million?" Saburo Sei asked.

"Say it...... Sheng Puchuan nodded, "However, I really didn't expect that Boss Cai from China would come up with such a high price, and the price they quoted was 10 million." ”

"10 million? That's impossible! Xie Hongming immediately denied it, and at the same time felt a pang in his heart: It seems that he is really not mistaken. This guy surnamed Cai really has a background.

Katsuuragawa pointed to the table and said, "The bids of the five families are all on the table, just read it yourself." ”

Saburo Sei gave Xie Hongming a look. Xie Hongming turned his head and saw that there were several bids on the table. He picked up the tender and glanced at it hurriedly. When he saw Cai Meilin's offer, he stopped, and what was written on it was indeed the words 10 million.

"They can't be writing it wrong, right?" Xie Hongming pretended to question. "It's just such a golden Buddha, how can they give up such a high price?"

Katsuuragawa sighed and said, "Mr. Xie, you see, this matter is a little difficult to handle now. Yesterday I struggled to convince our bosses to agree to take care of you. But if the price difference between the two is 2 million, I am a little difficult to explain. If it's 100,000, 80,000, even if it's only 1 million, I can talk about it. …… 2 million, tsk, it's too much trouble. ”

The best way to bargain is to put the blame on an unwarranted "behind-the-scenes boss", which means that there is a friendship between the two of us, but my boss has no friendship with you, so I can't be the master. Of course, Xie Hongming knew that Shengpu Chuan himself was the boss of Zhongdu, and there was anything behind the scenes. But if Katsuuragawa wants to say this, he can't help it, he can't point at Katsuuragawa to his face and say that he lied, right?

"What do you mean by Boss Katsu?" Xie Hongming asked coldly.

"I mean, can you all take a step back. I lost a little bit on my side, and Mr. Sei also added a little bit on my side, so that I could explain it to my boss. Katsuuragawa said with a grin.

"It's impossible." Saburo Sei said angrily. He didn't suspect that Cai Meilin's quotation was fake, but suspected that Katsu Puchuan and Cai Meilin had reached a behind-the-scenes deal, and deliberately asked Cai Meilin to quote a high price in order to join forces to pit his own money. 8 million US dollars is far beyond the value of the Golden Buddha itself, and it is really hateful that Katsuuragawa is still engaged in this kind of fame.

Katsuuragawa was quite calm and said: "If that's the case, then I'm really embarrassed, after all, the price difference between the two of you is too much, and I'm not easy to explain." Otherwise, I'll go and announce that Boss Cai and they have won the bid, and it will save you embarrassment. ”

As he spoke, he shouted outside, and the tattooed man who had avoided going out before arrived. Sheng Puchuan explained: "You go and ask Boss Cai to come over, and it will be said that it is the matter of the Golden Buddha......

"Oops......" Xie Hongming stretched out his hand to try to stop it, but the tattooed man ignored this stubble at all, and walked out of the tent. Xie Hongming was a little anxious, he also knew that Sheng Puchuan's move was an attempt to put pressure on them, but if they couldn't make a decision before Cai Meilin arrived, Sheng Puchuan might really sell the Golden Buddha to Cai Meilin by mistake, and then there would be no room for maneuver in the matter. They didn't come out with a stunned young man like Li Yu this time, and the option of grabbing things didn't exist in their minds at all.

"Boss Sheng, this matter can be discussed again!" Xie Hongming said to Sheng Puchuan.

"What do you mean by Mr. Sei?" Katsuuragawa asked for a moment's time.

Xie Hongming turned to Saburo Sei and muttered in Japanese in a low voice. Saburo Sei looked manic and tried to flip the table several times, but finally nodded with a dark face. He knew that smugglers like Katsuuragawa were mercenary, and the profits of hundreds of thousands might be able to be made, but if there was really a price difference of 2 million, even if Sei had any military background, they would not hesitate to do it.

"8.5 million." Xie Hongming finally said to Katsuurakawa, seeing Katsuurakawa's mouth open, and what he wanted to say, Xie Hongming sank his face and said: "Boss Katsu, this is Mr. Sei's bottom line, if you can't accept it, let's turn around and leave." However, when it comes to this point, everyone's faces are not good-looking. ”

"8.5 million?" Katsuuragawa looked like he was very entangled.

"8.5 million!" Xie Hongming said firmly.

"That'...... All right! Sheng Puchuan slapped the table, and his face was full of the word "righteousness": "I will be scolded by the boss, who let Mr. Xie be my savior?" ”

Nima's savior! Xie Hongming scolded angrily in his heart. The pit people have been pitted to this point, and what are the words of the life-saving benefactor, this is to pull hatred. Thinking like this in his heart, he still had to pretend to be appreciative on his face, and said some words of thanks in a row.

"Mr. Xie, let's do it, Boss Cai and they will come in a while, don't talk about your previous offer, just say that you quoted 11 million. Come on, come on, there is still a list here, you can fill it in again, so as not to let Boss Cai see the flaws. I also have to talk to Xiao Ma and tell him that Boss Cai has lost, so that he doesn't have to say anything. Katsuuragawa pretended to arrange.

This contrived completely convinced Xie Hongming of the authenticity of the pile of bids on the table, he took the list handed over by Shengpuchuan, filled in a new one, withdrew the original list, and then waited for Cai Meilin's arrival. Katsuuragawa picked up a walkie-talkie, pressed the frequency, and said a few words, as if he was in the same caliber as the tattooed man.

After more than ten minutes, the tattooed man came back, but there was no one from Cai Meilin's side behind him. As soon as he entered the door, he reported the situation to Katsuuragawa with an uncertain face. According to him, as soon as Cai Meilin heard that he had lost, he was furious, scolded Katsuuragawa and him, and said that when he returned, he would tell the entire collecting world to stop doing business with Katsuuragawa.

"So, he's not coming?" Katsuuragawa asked.

"But it's coming." Tattooed man said.

"Since that's the case, then forget it, it's better if he doesn't come, so as not to bother talking. In this way, Mr. Xie, you pay the money, and then take the Golden Buddha away. Katsu Puchuan said to Xie Hongming with a smile.

There is a high-power base station in the camp, which can be connected to the Internet and can also be paid by card. Xie Hongming swiped the card suspiciously, transferred $8.5 million to Katsuuragawa's account, and then left Katsuuragawa's tent with Saburo Sei holding the golden Buddha.

Sending Xie Hongming and the others out of the tent and watching them walk away, Katsu Puchuan beckoned to the tattooed man, called him to his side, and commanded in a low voice:

"You go and arrange it, don't let these Japanese contact Boss Cai. Tomorrow morning, I will send them away as much as possible. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
