Chapter 211: A Lively Auction
An auction ended so hastily that many people didn't even have the idea of going there, which can be regarded as a strange auction.
Soon after returning to the room, the staff brought over the photographed items, which he had already checked, and the fragment was indeed the same as the previous two.
He didn't know anything about jade, but he heard from those people that if they were to be auctioned in China, the price would probably double. In foreign markets, jade is indeed not very popular.
The next day, the cruise ship sailed a distance and stopped, and then saw a warship carrying weapons, heading towards this side, Xu Wenjie thought it was hit by a warship of that country.
Unexpectedly, I asked the staff, this is the armed forces of the cruise ship force at sea, and their task is to protect the cruise ship from danger at sea.
This force is really strong, and it can actually get something of the level of a warship to be a protective force at sea, and I don't know that the warship they parked there should be a certain country in Africa.
After the warship approached, the two ships were connected together with a ladder, and then I saw boxes of strange things being transported from the warship.
Obviously, these are those special auction items, which I did not expect to be sent by warships. Looking at the equipment on the warship, if that group of pirates is touched by this warship, they will be wiped out in minutes!
After all the things were delivered to the cruise ship, the warship did not stop here and left quickly.
Xu Wenjie looked at those boxes and thought to himself, tonight's auction and last night's auction must be diametrically opposed. I just don't know what the scene of competition between that group of people will become.
He didn't see Lan Luoying's figure. It should not have come out of the room, but the two pirates who had come on board reappeared on the deck.
This time they did not take an inventory of the wooden boxes, as if they had already confirmed. Then, while everyone was attracted to the eyes, the two of them ran to the tail of the cruise ship. Throw a source down again.
Xu Wenjie did not salvage this time, since these people are staring at this batch of things, they should not do anything to the people on the boat. Otherwise, it seems that the people who want money to hijack the ship directly will come faster.
Of course, after doing so, they will not have to hide in a place where there is no one, otherwise, in the case of these rich people on board. As soon as you get off the boat, you can find this group of people and kill them.
They are not state organs, as long as there is a way to find out people, I believe that they will use any means, and they will not care whether it is illegal or not.
At noon, when Xu Wenjie was eating in the western restaurant, the guests around him were talking about the auction items that were shipped today.
Listening to the meaning of these people's words, this batch of auction items seems to be a little special. It was taken from a strange monument. It's just that the person who took these things out didn't have time to get them away. was killed by another group of people.
Then, after the things were taken away by those people, they disappeared for a while. When the stuff reappeared, all of them were dead, and the stuff had changed hands again.
It's just that the owner who got the thing this time didn't live long. was killed, and for some reason, it was obtained by the forces behind this cruise ship.
Maybe they were afraid that something would happen, so they didn't even wait after getting the things, and they were eager to dispose of them.
It is for this reason that it is also possible. That's why so many unknown people appear on the cruise ship. These people have only one purpose, something in this batch.
It's a pity that Xu Wenjie didn't hear what it was, and it should be said that now in addition to those people, many guests on the cruise ship don't know what these people are fighting for.
In the afternoon, Xu Wenjie found that the figures of those guests who had not shown up in the past two days appeared frequently on the ship. And their purpose is to inquire about the auction items.
Unfortunately, no one has seen them since they were brought up, and I heard that Mark was locked in the ship's vault.
When night came, many people gathered in the auction hall early, and no guest was absent tonight. A lot of people, even the people they brought on board, brought them over, and I heard that they were some experts in antiques.
Originally, these experts were prepared for last night, but they didn't expect it to come in handy, which made many people secretly happy.
For such a situation, Xu Wenjie knew that he could only be reduced to a person watching the excitement tonight, and with the money he prepared, he couldn't even make a splash when he threw it into the competition of this auction.
The first thing in the auction is a special bell made entirely of gold, which, according to the auctioneer's words, can make people calm when it rings.
The price tag of this bell is 1 million US dollars, and before it arrives in two minutes, it soars to 10 million, Xu Wenjie can be regarded as seeing what it means to be crazy. The price that those guys shouted when they opened their mouths was not money, but waste paper.
Compared to last night, this is the real auction, everyone's enthusiasm is high, and sometimes the bidding is casually called out without thinking about it.
Well, in fact, there is an offerer, but Xu Wenjie found that no one uses that thing, and it is all done by holding cards.
The price of the bell is still rising, especially the two Arabs, who are completely like life and death rivals, and they do not give in to each other.
When the price soared to 30 million, the bidders gradually decreased, and the rest were some wealthy and powerful guys.
If this batch of things is really like what those people said, it was accidentally obtained by the forces behind this cruise ship, Xu Wenjie felt red at them.
This kind of money-making speed is faster than robbing a bank, robbing a bank, and the bank will not prepare so much cash for you to rob.
However, he also discovered a phenomenon that many older people, such as Lan Luoying's grandfather, don't seem to care about this golden bell at all, just watching the people around them compete.
It seems that these people will not sell until they see the thing they want.
The first auction item, the Golden Bell, was bought by a wealthy European man for 62 million. For this price, Xu Wenjie felt that the person who bought the clock must be crazy.
The second auction item is a strange piece of wood, according to the auctioneer's introduction, this piece of wood has been identified, it should be a plant thousands of years ago, for some reason, it has been well preserved.
The wood emitted a strange scent, and the auctioneer only opened it for a while, and the entire auction hall was filled with a strange fragrance.
It's a pity that the use of wood and the effect of fragrance have not been studied, so the price of this piece of wood is not very high, only 200,000.
Perhaps because of the strangeness of the wood, it attracted the attention of some mysterious guests, and three people shot at once. However, it was soon abandoned because of the price.
"Hmm."
Xu Wenjie felt the news from the white jade flying insect and was stunned, this little guy had been falling into a deep sleep, and he actually woke up at this time. (To be continued......)
