I went back to the room and took a shower, sat comfortably on the bed, and continued to pinch the stone pendant and practice the illusion trick.

As for the gopher, he had already been thrown into the space of the book on the ground, although this guy had some spirituality, but Li Chen relied on the beast control technique he used to perform at this time, and he quickly domesticated it into obedience.

Resting in the space of the book from the ground, in order to temporarily leave the mountain field, he can continue to cultivate the illusion of the heart. As for the food given to it, there are wattle bees here, and you are worried about not having honey to eat?

Entering the second-layer illusion realm of the illusion heart trick again, Li Chen's state at this time was much stronger than before. Although the strength of the illusion is also constantly strengthening, and the tempering intensity he feels every time is also rising in a straight line, Li Chen's adaptation state has indeed improved.

The direct benefit of this is that Li Chen feels that his state of mind is becoming more and more calm and stable. It seems that a lot of impetuous emotions have disappeared and entered a very wonderful state.

This is a change that is inexplicable and cannot be described in words, and can only rely on one's own feelings. But he's real.

The time for cultivation always flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the next morning is over.

Li Chen stopped practicing, took a shower, changed his clothes, and finished breakfast, when Sima Fei called and told him that the auction would be held as scheduled in the morning, but his beads would be handed over to the organizing committee in advance for appraisal, so he would come to pick him up later.

Li Chen naturally had no opinion, waited for the car to arrive, got in the car, and arrived at a hotel next to the National Exhibition.

Sima Fei was waiting there for a long time, and took Li Chen to the 8th floor, and it was very good to be closed. There are also many halls where private security guards are tightly controlled. In addition to these security forces on the surface, Li Chen also keenly found a lot of lurking in various corners. and the security forces in plainclothes mixed in the crowd, it seems that the organizing committee is very tight.

at the door. Looking at the invitation letter was extremely strict, and after making sure of it, Li Chen was let in.

When I went inside, there was no such Shen Ke meeting mode, but a very simple layout, about forty or fifty people seating, distributed in a semi-circle, and in the middle was a booth with tables, auction mallets and other things.

At this time, the seats were already six or seventy percent occupied. Everyone was very orderly, only a very low sound of conversation.

Sima Fei asked Li Chen to wait, and after he said a few words to a person dressed up in the organizing committee, the person came over and took Li Chen to a room.

In the room, it is the person in charge of the organizing committee.

According to the regulations, Li Chen needs to take out his beads and give them to the experts among these people to identify them in person, and then according to the benchmark price identified. Sign an agreement with the party, that is, Li Chen, Li Chen will entrust the items to the other party to auction, and the other party will also have the responsibility of temporary custody of this pearl, if there is an accident. Compensation is required according to the agreed benchmark price.

Li Chen knew that these procedures were complicated, but they were also necessary. So after patiently looking at the terms, he handed the beads to the other party.

The expert then arrived. Since Sima Fei was also one of them, Li Chen was also courteous to several people.

And Sima Fei introduced Li Chen. It is according to the identity agreed by Li Chen with him in advance - that is, a partner and a good friend.

This kind of introduction is easy for people to accept, otherwise it is said that it is the other master. It's too incomprehensible and causes trouble.

After the introduction, everyone sat down, and according to the regulations, this appraisal and valuation was carried out in person, and once both parties agreed, they signed and confirmed.

Li Chen naturally understood this, so he took out the jewelry box containing beads from his bag.

When everyone saw Li Chen take out a jewelry box, they were slightly surprised at first, and then some people couldn't help but glance at each other and smile. After all, in their eyes, jewelry may be of limited value except for the best.

But when Li Chen opened the lid and several people took a closer look at the contents inside, their faces suddenly changed.

This big pearl is the size of a bull's eye, not to mention the texture, the size alone is enough to be amazing. As the saying goes, "Seven points of pearl, eight points of treasure." "A diameter of less than seven millimeters is called a pearl, and a diameter greater than eight millimeters is directly called a treasure.

Therefore, this pearl with a diameter of at least sixteen or seventeen millimeters is enough to be called a treasure in a treasure.

Li Chen has been paying attention to everyone's reactions, and seeing everyone's expressions, Li Chen's heart is actually half fixed. But he wanted to listen to everyone's opinions more, so he subconsciously glanced at Sima Fei.

Sima Fei naturally understood Li Chen's thoughts, and immediately picked up the pearl and began to take the lead in looking at it. After watching the meeting, he turned the pearl to Lao Ding beside him and said: "I think the texture of this pearl is extraordinary, Lao Ding, how about you take a look?" ”

Seeing Sima Fei's order, Lao Ding took the beads and tasted them while looking at them.

Although Li Chen had read a lot of reviews about pearls on the Internet in advance, listening to these expert comments with his own ears still far exceeded those seen on the Internet.

And after Lao Ding said, other people also began to express their opinions, and compared this pearl with the best they had ever seen, and there was even a debate in the middle, in short, it should be a very concise valuation, but it turned into a warm comment, everyone was obviously very interested in this pearl, and they were very happy. This surprised the organizing committee members.

Li Chen listened to it with relish and gained a lot.

But at the same time, Li Chen also found that one of the old men seemed to have a strange reaction, his eyes kept staring at the bead, and there seemed to be a trace of sadness between his eyebrows, as if he had something on his mind.

When this person listened to the introduction just now, he seemed to be Sima Fei's fellow countryman, and he was also a master of the ancient world who had a close personal relationship with Sima Fei, named Wei Zhen. Of course, although Li Chen saw it, he didn't show anything, but he had secretly paid attention.

At this moment, Wei Zhen suddenly asked a very surprising question, he asked Li Chen: "I wonder if this bead is still there?" ”

This question is very surprising and at the same time, it is also very taboo, after all, it is very unpleasant to ask about this kind of privacy. It stands to reason that Wei Zhen, as an old Jianghu, shouldn't make such a low-level mistake?

No, the old friends are very worried, and the people in the organizing committee are also slightly dissatisfied.

Fortunately, Li Chen didn't blame him, shook his head, and truthfully said that this was the only one.

Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Wei Zhen lowered his head with gloomy eyes.

In order to avoid Li Chen's investigation, everyone quickly used other topics to cross the matter.

Seeing that everyone was still talking, the organizing committee had to remind everyone to pay attention to the time and give the price as soon as possible.

After hearing this, everyone's faces were solemn.

Although the product is sufficient, but if you really want to give value, these people are very cautious, and value is also a very sensitive thing in this circle, not only the thing is good, but there are many complex factors to be added.

Li Chen had already heard Sima Fei say the key to this, and when he saw that everyone was silent, he was not surprised. (To be continued......)
