Chapter 214: Auction

The next day, Jack managed to get an invitation from the Hydra, and the auction would take place in three days.

In the next two days, everything was ready, and Chen Fan and the two of them successfully entered the Los Manor.

Holding a glass of red wine, Chen Fan looked at the men and women around him and couldn't help loosening the bow tie around his neck.

"What? Not used to this kind of occasion? Jack came to Chen Fan with a glass of wine and said with a smile.

"It's true that this kind of life doesn't suit me very well." Chen Fan shrugged.

"Let's go, the auction is about to start." With that, Jack walked towards the hall of the manor.

Coming to the hall, all the people who had come to the auction had already gathered here.

After a bit of nonsense from the auctioneer, the auction finally began.

Looking at the luxury goods or antiques on the auction table, Chen Fan was not interested at all.

Just when he was drowsy, Jack, who was standing on the side, pushed him, "Chen Fan, wake up, it's about to start." ”

After Jack's pushing, Chen Fan finally got up and looked up, only to see that the cross had been placed on the lift.

"Then we'll start bidding on the next item, which is a wood-inlaid cross from Trotter's private house...... "The auctioneer begins by explaining the origin and meaning of the cross.

Listening to the nonsense that the auctioneer said, Chen Fan felt that she really had a lot of nonsense at this time.

Finally, after a lot of nonsense forced by the other party, the bidding finally began.

"The reserve price of this cross is 10,000 euros, and each increase must not be less than 10,000 euros, and now the bidding begins."

"One hundred thousand." Chen Fan, who was impatiently waiting, held up the sign and shouted out.

With Chen Fan's shouting, the hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone was stunned by Chen Fan's unreasonableness.

"This gentleman bid 100,000, is there anyone else to bid?" The auctioneer raised his hand.

"One hundred thousand." A middle-aged man shouted with a sign.

"That person's name is Leif Adler, he is a rich second generation, and his family is quite rich, but he has taken over the family's business in recent years, and he is ruthless." On the side, Jack introduced Chen Fan.

"This gentleman bid 110,000 yuan, is there anything higher? Since no one else came out higher, then for the first time. ”

"Two hundred thousand." Chen Fan raised the sign again and shouted.

And Chen Fan's second move successfully attracted everyone's attention, and everyone didn't expect that there would be such a person.

Leif was staring at Chen Fan who was holding the sign at this time, and his eyes revealed a trace of poisonous cold light.

Ignoring Leifu completely, Chen Fan didn't pay attention to this kind of rich second generation who had no skills, but the woman next to Leifu attracted Chen Fan's attention.

Since he had often dealt with mercenaries when he had adventures with Laura before, Chen Fan could easily tell that this woman was born as a mercenary.

"Who is that dark-skinned woman? Looks like a military man. Chen Fan asked in a low voice to Jack.

"Wait for me for ten seconds, and I'll find out the other party's identity right away." David's voice came from Chen Fan's headset.

Soon David's voice sounded again: "I found out, this woman's name is Nadine Rose, she is very famous in South Africa, and the famous 'Coastline' mercenary group is a team under her." ”

Just as Chen Fan was looking at the two of them, Leif raised the sign again with a blushing face and shouted, "500,000 euros." ”

"Well, thank you, now that the bid has reached 500,000 euros, does that gentleman still want to bid?"

Seeing the auctioneer looking at him, Chen Fan couldn't help but pouted and then raised his card and said, "One million euros." ”

Wow~~

As Chen Fan doubled the price again, there was an uproar in the venue.

"Security, I think this person is a troublemaker, every time I bid the other party doubled, I don't believe he has so much money, I ask for capital verification." Hearing Chen Fan's shout, Leif finally couldn't control the sign in his hand and slammed it on the ground and shouted.

And the auction organizer also had doubts about Chen Fan's behavior, so soon a waiter came to Chen Fan's side.

"Hello sir, since there are suspicions that you are bidding indiscriminately, I need you to show your financial situation." The waiter said respectfully to Chen Fan.

After all, the people who can come here to participate in the auction are either rich or expensive, and the auction venue is also afraid of offending people, so the service staff is very humble.

Chen Fan also knew the rules, although he was very unhappy with this behavior in the auction venue, he didn't express it, and took out a card with a smile and handed it to the waiter.

After taking the card handed over by Chen Fan, the waiter quickly retreated.

Soon, after a while, the waiter returned again and respectfully placed Chen Fan's bank card, "Sir, you are fully qualified to participate in any bidding, I wish you a happy evening." ”

At this time, after receiving the news from the venue, the auctioneer said to Leif: "Sir, that gentleman is fully qualified to participate in the bidding, so the previous bidding is completely valid." ”

In fact, the auctioneer's heart was also very surprised at this time, so the waiter quickly checked the balance in Chen Fan's card after getting Chen Fan's card just now, and there was a deposit of a full 250 million US dollars, so there was those conversations just now.

And Leif suddenly looked gloomy after hearing the auctioneer's words, he didn't expect that he actually looked away, and the other party really had so much money.

Glancing at Chen Fan viciously, Leif gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Two million euros." ”

"Four million euros." Chen Fan followed closely and shouted the price.

"Boy, there are some things you shouldn't take, so you'd better get acquainted." Reif suddenly threatened.

"Auctioneer, this man threatened me not to let me auction." Chen Fan shouted loudly to the auctioneer who was carrying him.

For Chen Fan's words, Leif's face became even more gloomy, and after receiving the threat from the eyes of the surrounding security guards, Leif was suddenly stunned.

After all, the backstage of the auction is not something he can afford to mess with.

"Boy, we'll see." Leif said a word to Chen Fan and then planned to leave.

"Four million euros, is there anyone else bidding? Once, twice, three times! Congratulations to this gentleman for taking this collection. The auctioneer knocked down the hammer with a smile on his face

Watching Chen Fan take a picture of the cross, Leif was about to leave, and the entire venue suddenly went dark.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please remain calm, the backup power will be activated shortly." Hearing the loud shouts, the auctioneer hurriedly spoke out to calm down.

And the moment Chen Fan's side darkened in the hall, he found a figure flashing on the auction table, and then the other party ran out towards a side door with his cross.

At the moment when the other party was about to leave the hall, the backup power was finally activated, and the entire hall became bright again.

The only change in the field, however, is that the cross, which had been placed on the lift, has disappeared.

Leif looked at the disappearing cross and smiled proudly at Chen Fan, "Haha, it's not like you didn't get it in the end." ”

"Security, I seriously suspect that this person had a grudge after not being able to photograph the cross, so he stole it." Chen Fan looked at Leif with a sneer.

Hearing Chen Fan's slander against him, Leif was immediately angry, but what Chen Fan said really made sense, after all, after all, after he found out that he was competing with Chen Fan before, it was completely possible for him to do this kind of thing after he found out that he couldn't compete with Chen Fan.

The auction was also very quick to act, and immediately cordoned off the venue, not allowing anyone present to leave the venue.

Leif, in particular, was heavily cared for among these people.

Unbeknownst to everyone, however, the real burglar fled the scene through the side door in a panic as the lights came on.

"Just now I saw a man in a waiter's suit leave at the side door." Jack whispered in Chen Fan's ear.

After nodding slightly to indicate that he had also seen it, Chen Fan began to cooperate with Jack to check with the security guards.

Soon, the inspection was over, and the cross was not in the hands of anyone in the field, so Chen Fan also walked out of the hall smoothly.

Walking on the route designated by the security personnel, Chen Fan and the two looked around.

Suddenly, there was a gunshot in the distance, and finally Chen Fan pulled Jack and disappeared around a corner the moment he grabbed a security guard and turned his head.

"Let's go, let's see, it should be that thief who was discovered by the security guards." After Chen Fan said a word to Jack, he ran in the direction where the gunshots came from.

Soon, Chen Fan spotted a figure climbing on the roof, so the two leaned towards each other quietly.

The other party quickly climbed along the eaves to a study-like room, and Chen Fan stayed outside a window to watch each other's actions carefully.

Perhaps knowing that he was safe, the other party pretended to be a normal guest and left the room after entering the study.

Just as he opened the door, Chen Fan saw an unexpected figure appear outside the door, it was the female mercenary leader he had seen before.

Vaguely, Chen Fan became angry after hearing this woman say a few words to the man who looked like a thief.

But the thief's skills didn't seem to be the match for the mercenary leader, and after a few rounds, he was completely pressed and beaten by this woman.

"You're good, have you ever beaten it?" Chen Fan turned his head to look at Jack.

"It's not bad, if it's me, I can't tell the winner in a short time." Jack looked at it and said solemnly.

While the two were talking, the thief man had already been pressed to the ground and rubbed.

After searching the thief for no crosses, the female mercenary leader finally lost her patience and grabbed the other man's hair and threw herself towards the floor-to-ceiling window on the side.

Wow~~

There was a sound of whole glass shattering, and the thief man was thrown out of the window.

"Oh, this woman is a bit ruthless, it's completely deadly." Jack said in surprise.

"Indeed, but this thief is also fateful, and he didn't die if he fell like this, but let him seize the opportunity to escape. However, his climbing skills are good, and he can match Laura. Chen Fan looked at the thief who slipped away along the crossbar inserted in the outer wall of the manor after grabbing the curtain at the critical moment.

"The woman didn't seem to have found the cross just now, the thief should have an accomplice, and the cross should be on his accomplice's side." Jack analyzed.

"So~ let's go along and have a look?" Chen Fan suggested when he heard this.

Jack nodded and followed in the direction the other party had left.

Sure enough, the man soon joined up with his companion, but by this time, the two of them were also found as the security personnel gradually searched.

I don't know if it's the law of all things, in short, the combat effectiveness of security personnel is always the scumbag.

After a fight, the security guards were pressed and beaten by two thieves with pistols.

After overturning a large number of security guards, the two thieves successfully got into a car driven by their companions, and after crashing through the gate, they fled.

Secretly, Chen Fan and Jack also drove their cars smoothly and rushed out of the manor with each other.

Next, Chen Fan and the two fished behind each other from a distance and came to a house.

Looking at the three people who got out of the car and entered the house, Chen Fan quietly touched Jack after parking the car.
