Chapter 508: Gradually
The venue was silent.
The white tiger looked surprised and looked at Alexander who was sitting in the third row.
What does he mean by that?!
Qinglong's face did not change at all, and he continued to hold up the sign.
"Mr. 3, 300,000." The auctioneer sang loudly.
Alexander smiled gracefully and held up his card again.
"Mr. 6, 400,000." The auctioneer sang loudly.
If you can't see that there's something wrong with the table, that's the problem. Someone has already begun to whisper whether they have not discovered the true value of this table.
Suddenly, an old man who looked to be over half a hundred years old held up a sign.
"Mr. 8, 700,000." The auctioneer's voice was raised.
The atmosphere below became even more enthusiastic. It's almost frying.
Qinglong frowned slightly, and glanced at Alexander without a trace. Although he had known each other for some years, he could not figure out Alexander's context at this time.
Alexander chewed an elegant smile at the corner of his mouth as he continued to raise his card.
The old man glanced at Alexander, not to be outdone, and continued to hold up his card.
Back and forth, the price of this inconspicuous-looking broken table was raised to more than 11 million.
The white tiger swallowed, is this table really that valuable?
Qinglong has already begun to stop holding cards.
Nonsense, you can't buy everything with money in this world. If you can't spend money to buy it, you can just use it. Why bother with these people?
The atmosphere has been heated again and again, and I see that this table is about to fetch a sky-high price.
A sign was held up without warning.
The auctioneer's eyes lit up: "Mr. No. 15." Thirty-two million. ”
The venue immediately set off an uproar. They all gave up their reserves, and turned their heads to see who was so generous.
The white tiger couldn't help but turn his head away. only to find Eric in a white suit looking at him with a smile.
Yo, this is here to help?
Suddenly I was relieved, and it seemed that this table was bound to win.
Who knew that before he could put down his heart for two seconds, the old man held up the sign again.
The white tiger gritted his teeth, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't move at will at this time. He had already kicked this blind man outside.
Qinglong was calmer than Baihu, glanced at the old man, and his eyebrows sank.
"Look at the people around him."
The white tiger was stunned for a moment, patronizing and angry, but he didn't look carefully. Beside the old man sat a beautiful woman covered in jewels.
Obviously, the old man worked so hard to show his financial resources to the woman.
Those who can come to the auction must have some silver in their pockets. It can make beautiful women smile. Men do sometimes have cerebral congestion.
"Daughters buy a smile?" The white tiger pouted.
Qinglong's eyes darkened: "See who that woman is." ”
The white tiger squinted and looked at it: "It looks quite familiar." ”
Qinglong held his forehead: "That's the third daughter of the Smith family, Ariel Smith." ”
The white tiger was shocked, I wiped it, isn't it an only child? Where did a daughter run out!
"Didn't you say that Roger Smith was an only child? My daughter doesn't go up to the household register? ”
And it's the third daughter. Third daughter, hey!
Qinglong's eyes drifted away: "The third daughter of the Smith family." I didn't say it was Jason Smith's daughter. That's Jason Smith's sister. ”
Other people's parents gave birth to more than one, but the son passed on alone in this lifetime. My sister is a little younger, and she is a little better maintained. You can't tell the age at all.
Eric raised an eyebrow and was about to hold up the sign, when Alexander shook his head at him secretly.
After a moment of stunned effort, the hammer over there struck down.
"Forty-three million, congratulations to Mr. 8 for having photographed our goods." The auctioneer is going to laugh like a flower.
Although the old man's face was a little pale, he still couldn't hide his smug expression.
The white tiger gritted his teeth stubbornly: "What should I do?" ”
Qinglong said lightly: "Who said that you must go through the normal channel." ”
It's just a table, and Zuo Jichuan didn't say that he had to take it back in its entirety. What a big deal to steal it out and unload it and take it away.
The white tiger was silent, he has been good recently, and his thinking has been solidified seriously. I wonder when did he spend money to buy things before......
When they went out, they saw Alexander smiling and leaning on a Mercedes-Benz paladin, looking at them with a smile.
The white tiger twisted his eyebrows, but was pulled by the green dragon. Nodding quietly, he got into the car.
Alexander raised an eyebrow, smiled and followed into the car.
It's not a good place to talk outside, this car is bulletproof, and the sound insulation is quite good.
"What the hell are you up to?" Before Bai Hu could ask, he only heard Qinglong say in a low and cold voice.
Alexander smiled and shrugged: "I am also entrusted by others. Just let the old man get some blood. ”
The table, which could be sold for 200 yuan, turned out to be tens of millions. It can only be seen who has the water in the brain.
Qinglong's face was gloomy: "You shouldn't get in the way of us. ”
Alexander was still smiling: "Forget it, it's just a broken table, it's not worth spending so much." Just take it and you're good to go. ”
Qinglong raised his eyebrows: "Changed?" ”
Some auction houses do do this, making a few copies of the antique paintings they have in their possession, and most of the ones sold are fakes. Even if a collector finds out, they will think that someone else is a fake. Some of them were auctioned at black auctions, and even if they knew that they were fakes, there was no place to reason with them.
Alexander smiled and opened a bottle of wine and poured a glass for each of the White Tiger and the Green Dragon: "Arthur is an old friend of mine, and he has been a little bad lately. He had worked hard to make this table, and it was very difficult to copy. Those patterns almost killed him. Don't sell for more money, how can you be worthy of him. ”
The White Tiger shook his glass, and knew where their table was already in Alexandria.
"I knew it and came to mix." I also wasted a lot of money on a bunch of useless things.
Qinglong lowered his head and looked at the wine in the wine glass: "Help us, what's the benefit?" ”
Alexander paused. smiled: "It's worthy of you, such caution." ”
Last time, after Zuo Jichuan and Gu Chengren turned around, Old Man Zuo's anger was not so easy to calm down. Alexander is a mixed intelligence, how can he not care. Although Grandpa Zuo said that it was okay, he couldn't really treat it as nothing.
At least in the future, Zuo Jichuan asked for information, and he couldn't collect a penny.
The car drove all the way to the suburbs.
I don't know how far I drove until I finally arrived at a villa that looked a little desolate and dilapidated.
"Is it necessary to run so far?" The white tiger's face was confused.
Alexander got out of the car, took off his sunglasses, and breathed a sigh of relief: "The owner of this house has been in some trouble recently, and he sold the house to me by depreciation." Although it doesn't look great on the outside, it's quite comfortable on the inside. ”
Qinglong was noncommittal. Followed Alexander inside.
The inside has been renovated. It's not magnificent, but it's comfortable.
The table, standing quietly on the floor of the hall.
Circling around the table, Bai Hu pinched his chin: "I really can't see what's on this table." Why does the young master care so much? ”
Qinglong is in contact with Suzaku business. Notify you that the table is in hand.
"The young master said that this pattern is a pattern that I have seen in Qinghui Garden. There is no one in the country. It is even less likely to be available abroad. ”
The white tiger was instantly clear, no wonder.
Alexander wasn't very interested in this, leaving Qinglong Baihu to go to the second floor to contact the counterfeiter about the transfer.
Qinglong opens the video. Circled around the table.
"I'm afraid it's hard to get on the plane, so I can unpack it and ship it back." Qinglong said.
Zuo Jichuan looked around carefully, and felt that he still had to touch his hands to know where there was a mechanism.
"By the way, how is the investigation of the missing girls?" I've almost forgotten about it.
"We intercepted the news from the city police, and the girls had been to the cave before." Qinglong summed it up succinctly.
Zuo Jichuan pinched his chin and pondered for a while: "Forget it, those girls didn't tell Chengren who the murderer was, and now they can't ask." Come back first. ”
"Ahh The white tiger snorted, and a leather-faced notebook fell out from under the table.
Qinglong was startled and rushed over: "Where did you touch?" ”
Bai Hu rubbed his fingers: "I just touched slowly along the lower edge of the table, and it ended up in my hand." ”
The leather-topped notebook looks a bit old. Qinglong didn't dare to take it directly with his hands, so he pulled a tablecloth nearby and wrapped the notebook.
Alexander walked down briskly from the upper floor: "The auctioneer has found here, it should be that old man who has discovered that something is wrong." We're going to get out of here as soon as possible. ”
Qinglong and Baihu glanced at each other, hung up the phone and followed Alexander to the back door.
Anyway, the things are already in hand, and there shouldn't be anything else hidden.
Alexander watched the green dragon and white tiger throw down the table, hesitated for a moment but didn't ask.
Brandon had already driven the car and waited at the back door, Mercedes-Benz changed to a GMC SUV, and the mountain roads behind were not very smooth, and if you wanted to go, you could only bypass the back mountain.
In the car, Qinglong stuffed the notebook into his arms. The private jet was already prepared, and Brandon could just take them to the airport.
As for the rest, it depends on how Zuo Jichuan and them do it.
After Eric came out of the auction house, he went straight home, called the captain of the private jet, and asked him to fly to the nearest airport near the address sent by Alexander.
Then, he still dialed Gu Chengren's phone.
"Those girls died miserably, how could they not become resentful spirits." Eric wiped the drops of water from his hair while discussing with Gu Chengren.
Gu Chengren nested in the quilt and muttered: "The miserable death is caused by death." They died quite simply, killing with one blow. It is also possible that he was injected with drugs and died in a dream. ”
At that time, he also noticed that something was wrong, but where to think about it so much at that time.
Eric smiled, "Anyway, I'm just reminding you, you can rest." ”
Gu Chengren hummed and hung up the phone.
turned over, but the dream came to his face.
Looking at the blue sky under his feet, Gu Chengren's eyes swept coldly. I haven't investigated it in a dream for many years, and I don't know if he can control this technology now that he is an adult.
With a tap on your feet, strings of ripples spread out. Gu Chengren walked towards the front step by step.
Although it was in a dream, I could clearly see the female college student who had just come out of the classroom, smiling and talking to her boyfriend on the phone. Everything happens on a daily basis, and there is nothing new in it. She will also have to work as a tutor in a while, which is the source of rent.
Suddenly, a black shadow beckoned to her from the shadows of the building. Although the female college student was stunned for a moment, she walked over unguarded.
The dream flashed, and the same scene appeared at another university. The location was changed to the mountains. Several female college students climbed rock together, and a black shadow appeared behind the big tree, waving to them.
Gu Chengren rubbed his eyebrows, his sense of precaution is really low, and the primary school students in China have been explained that they must not talk to strangers. Why are foreign children so heartless?
The picture flashed, as if a strong wind was blowing. Gu Chengren didn't stand firm and was almost blown away.
Barely standing firm, I don't know whose dreams are coming.
Drip drip, drip ...... Instrument sounds of the electrocardiogram.
Gu Chengren turned around and saw that he should be in the hospital. Surrounded by flowers and stuffed animals. It seems that the sick person should be very popular.
The bed was shaded by a gauze curtain, and many threads could be seen extending from the bed.
Although he didn't know much about medical matters, Gu Chengren could also see that this person was not lightly ill.
Reaching out to open the curtain to see what was going on, suddenly, the wind hit me again. Gu Chengren's eyebrows furrowed, and he was slapped in the face.
"Gu Chengren!" Zuo Jichuan's shouting was a bit poignant.
Gu Chengren opened his eyes in confusion and found that he was being carried by Zuo Jichuan.
"Brother Chuan, I don't expect you to find a beautiful woman to kiss me, can you wake me up in a gentle way?" Gu Chengren had a wide face and tears, since Mu Jingran had something to do, Zuo Jichuan's temper was not as good as before.
was originally a sun-bellied and black model, but now it has developed more and more in a simple and rough way.
Zuo Jichuan saw that he was awake, and threw Gu Chengren on the bed with a loose hand. He sat down on the couch and breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his head and lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly spit it out after a while.
"You're out of breath, where do I have time to find you a beautiful woman." Zuo Jichuan was really scared.
Originally, I came to Gu Chengren to say that Qinglong and they had found a notebook, but when I entered the door, I saw Gu Chengren sleeping again. went up and pushed twice, but found that Gu Chengren was cold and breathless.
Coincidentally, Bai Ze was not at home, and Zuo Jichuan directly did a cardiac pace, but Gu Chengren still didn't react. So Zuo Jichuan directly slapped him twice.
It turns out that pain can really awaken the conscience of mankind. Gu Chengren really woke up.
"Let Bai Ze give you a full body examination in a while, you can't make the slightest mistake. I can't explain it to your grandmother. Zuo Jichuan's back was covered with cold sweat, and he lay on the sofa with no strength. (To be continued......)
