Seeing that she got on the horse safely, Shen Zhou, who was originally going to share a horse, had no reason to do so, so he had no choice but to follow the other horse.

After running two laps, Tang Ran was very smart. Soon I can grasp Xiaoxue's temperament, and the cooperation of one person and one horse is seamless.

Shen Zhou, who was following her, was worried from the beginning, to seeing her wanton brazen and bright smile at the end, looking at the fluttering figure and touching the horse under him.

"Go, catch up."

The horse beneath him neighed, and quickly ran away, chasing forward.

The butler, who was coming out of the kitchen, heard a horse neighing not far away. Looking in the direction from which the voice came, he saw Miss Tang Ran galloping on horseback in the racecourse, and the fourth master followed behind. The more I look at it, the more I feel like a good match.

"What a natural pair."

Tang Ran ran a few laps, a little unsatisfied, and Shen Zhou stopped Tang Ran who wanted to continue in a timely manner. Novices don't have much of a problem with just a few laps of riding, but after a long time, there will be pain in the butt and inner thighs and crotch and between the hands, hips and legs.

Tang Ran also knew this truth and did not continue.

After getting off the horse, he touched Xiaoxue's head.

"Do you like it?"

Tang Ran smiled.

Shen Zhou stepped forward and touched Xiaoxue, "Do you like your master?" ”

Xiaoxue's nose exhaled, as if disgusted with him.

"You see, after this guy has a master, he turns his elbow out so quickly. It's yours from now on. ”

"Do you really want to give it to me, but I don't have a place to raise it."

"You don't need to raise it, just put it here. When you play later, you can come to it at any time. ”

The two of them walked down the hill as they walked.

The housekeeper had already prepared a romantic Western meal for them.

The next day, Shen Zhou took Tang Ran around to relax.

After dark, he sent Tang Ran back to the Fu family early.

As soon as he went back, Haotian entered Shen Zhou's study.

After Haotian quietly left, the housekeeper knocked on the door of the study.

"Enter."

The housekeeper walked into the study and saluted Shen Zhou respectfully.

"Fourth master, this is an invitation from Huadu Auction House."

All the auction houses in Huaxia know that Si Ye likes antiques.

Two-thirds of the items in this auction are excellent antiques.

The people in the auction house are not fools, so naturally they will not forget to invite the fourth master.

Shen Zhou's fingers tapped on the table, and the housekeeper put down the invitation, and then silently withdrew.

Shen Zhou glanced at it, and the time on the invitation was this Sunday.

It just so happens that I can take Xiao Ran'er to see it tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Shen Zhou greeted Tang Ran and waited at the door of Fu's house early. finally made an appointment, and he naturally won't leave a day behind this weekend.

After the two of them ate breakfast together, Shen Zhou's gentle voice slowly spoke, "Take you to a place." ”

Tang Ran raised his eyes, "Where are you going?" ”

Shen Zhou put the invitation in front of her.

Tang Ran took the invitation and opened it to see that it was an invitation from the auction house.

Several representative photographs of precious antiques are listed at the back of the invitation.

Shen Zhou had been observing Tang Ran's expression, and if she wasn't interested, he wasn't ready to go. After seeing her nodding, he immediately raised his hand to signal the preparation below.

By the time the two arrived at the Waldo Auction House, many luxury cars had already parked outside the door. Getting out of the car were the richest people and industry leaders.

After seeing Shen Zhou, many people stepped forward to say hello.

After greeting these people, Shen Zhou took Tang Ran into the auction house.

According to the level of their invitations, the waiter took them to the auction house and sat in the first row.

The location of the auction house is very particular. The closer you are to the front row, the more prestigious your status is.

Tang Ran didn't feel much surprised by this, after all, in her opinion, Shen Zhou did have that capital.

Many rich people entered the entire venue one after another, and Tang Ran took a casual look and found that something was unusual.

There are quite a few people in the country of M and the country of cherry blossoms.

Sitting behind them were two native people, talking in low voices.

"Several of the items in this auction are national first-class cultural relics and are of high value. Gotta shoot it anyway. Foreigners can't be snatched away. ”

"Old Lin, you're right. How can the things of one's own country fall into the hands of foreigners. ”

Tang Ran listened to their conversation and looked around at the many foreign faces around.

Tang Ran whispered a word to Shen Zhou, then got up to leave and asked the waiter the direction of the bathroom.

I came out of the bathroom and walked to the corner and heard two people from Sakura Country talking in a low voice.

Tang Ran knew Sakura Chinese and heard the words of those two.

She raised an eyebrow, unconcerned.

When they saw Tang Ran coming out of the bathroom, they didn't care, anyway, they didn't think that the other party could understand their words.

Tang Ran didn't pay attention to them at all, didn't stop, and walked straight past them.

After returning to his seat, Shen Zhou tilted his head, "Is there anything you like?" ”

Tang Ran flipped through the brochure, "Not for the time being." ”

Before the auction began, the organizers suddenly handed out a new brochure to everyone in the venue.

Everyone was confused, and when they turned to the last few pages of the booklet, their faces were shocked.

The two old men sitting behind Don became angry.

"Be sure to photograph these two things."

"Old Lin, don't get excited, watch your body."

"No, I'll have to call the association. Tell them to transfer more money. Otherwise, with the little money we have on us, I am afraid we will not be able to take it. ”

Tang Ran looked at the two extra antiques on the last page of the brochure, and his brows furrowed slightly.

The appearance of the long-lost Nine Dragons Jade Cup is not shocking.

Another item of equal value is the Pearl of the Empress's Night.

The value of these two artifacts is not just measured in terms of money.

At the beginning of the auction, after the host's polite opening remarks, he went straight to the point without dragging his feet in the slightest. The first batch belongs to preheating, and the price is not high.

The first blue and white porcelain of the late Qing Dynasty, with a starting price of one million.

Not many people bid, and no one of the foreigners raised their signs. Only the Chinese people made a bid, and finally sold for 5 million.

The second lot was a jade jade bracelet, and the bidders were mainly from Huaxia, with fewer people from other countries, including the two Sakura Chinese people she met outside the bathroom.

The final price is still in the range of slightly higher valuation, and the person who won this item is also a wealthy businessman from China.

One lot after another was pushed up to a high price, and as soon as the antiques came up, they were fiercely bid by wealthy foreign businessmen every time, and most of them ended up in the hands of wealthy domestic businessmen.

Shen Zhou noticed that Tang Ran's gaze fell on the left rear position from time to time.

"What's wrong?" Shen Zhou asked.

"Those two people deliberately inflated the price and had bad intentions."

The two would take turns bidding on all the Chinese antiques, but never each time. When the price reaches a critical point, they will no longer bid.

This way the real bidder will bid for a higher price than the original.

This result made Tang Ran very unhappy.

Their behavior is obvious, that is, they deliberately inflate the price of antiques and make huge profits.

Shen Zhou's gaze fell to the back, and he noticed the two people from the Cherry Blossom Country.

If he remembers correctly, these two people have been traveling back and forth to various countries for a long time to collect Chinese antiques, and they have come to China to hype up and make a lot of money.

Just as they were talking, the two people from Sakura Country shot again.

"Mr. Forty-Four is bidding five million. Is there anything higher than that? ”

Suzuki, who was holding the number 44 plaque in his hand, smiled in response to the projected gaze. The bronzes on the stage had already exceeded the price they should have, but he was not at all worried that he would buy them for more than the market price.

Because he knew that those people in Huaxia would definitely spend a lot of money to buy it back.

Sure enough, soon someone made a bid.

"The bid on the thirty-ninth is six million."

Unhurriedly, Suzuki raised his sign again.

"The bid for the forty-fourth is seven million."

……

Tang Ran looked at the bronzes that were originally worth more than one million and sold them for seven million. It has already multiplied several times.

There are also a lot of antiques in the back. If this pattern continues, many of the Chinese people here today will suffer.

Won't they be able to see what's in it?

Of course you can see it.

Most of these people are patriotic people, but blind patriotism has allowed these people to take advantage of loopholes, and they have to spend a lot of money to auction back national cultural relics.

Shen Zhou saw Tang Ran's displeasure, leaned over her ear and whispered, "Don't worry, leave it to me." ”

"What are you going to do?" Tang Ran asked in a low voice.

Shen Zhou smiled, "You'll know later." ”

A few minutes later, all the wealthy people in China who were present today received a text message at the same time. When they saw the text message, they looked a little shocked.

I couldn't help but look around the venue, and soon I saw the person sitting at the front with his hand slightly raised.

Now they all understand and are convinced that the text message received on the phone is real and not a scammer's text message.

A blue and white porcelain vase is currently being auctioned on the market. The starting bid price is 1 million.

"The twenty-ninth bid two million. Is anyone bidding higher? ”

Shen Zhou, who has never raised a card. Slowly raised the sign.

"Five million."

Suzuki held up the sign without thinking.

"The forty-fourth guest bid 5.5 million."

Suzuki was waiting for Huaxia's people to raise their cards so that he could continue to increase the price. Then the Chinese people on the scene did nothing, as if they were not interested in blue and white porcelain.

Except for the initial Shen Zhou holding the card, everyone else was indifferent.

Suzuki was stunned, and his puzzled eyes turned to the Huaxia people in the venue.

What's going on?

Don't Chinese people like Chinese antiques the most?

Why didn't anyone bid today?!

And other foreigners think that the price of this item is this price, and naturally no one bids.

After repeated inquiries by the auctioneer, the blue and white porcelain was finally owned by Suzuki at a price of 5.5 million.

Suzuki and Kato, and even the auction house didn't take it to heart, thinking it was just an accident, so they didn't do anything.

Soon they found out that they were wrong.

Next is antiques, all of which are Chinese antiques, but no Chinese people participate in the auction, on the contrary, the auction of foreign antiques is in full swing.

This anomaly made Suzuki and Kato drum in their hearts.

If they don't participate in the auction, how can they inflate the price of Chinese antiques?

They are still waiting to raise the price, and then release the Chinese antiques in their warehouses one after another, so as to make a huge profit.

Suzuki is in a hurry, as are auction houses and antique dealers.

This is not what they want to see. If something can't be auctioned for a sky-high price, it will have a big impact on their auction house.

David, the owner of the antique, squinted at the Chinese people in the audience.

"Mr. David, it's not good." David's assistant whispered.

David naturally saw that the Huaxia people seemed to have reached some tacit understanding, and no one moved.

In the past, they would be in a hurry to take these Chinese antiques away.

"John, you go and arrange a few people to raise the price."

"But, aren't we losing money?" Assistant John asked, puzzled.

David snorted coldly. "If you want to go, you will go."

John obeyed and left.

David's gaze involuntarily fell on Shen Zhou in the front row.

Money? Not necessarily.

Although these items were eventually taken away by themselves, after the price was speculated and then released, excluding the auction commission, they still earned it, which was just a waste of time.

With the addition of foreign buyers, several antiques were auctioned off by them at high prices.

Tang Ran found out that this was an auction house and an antique owner.

"Brother Shen, what now?"

Even if Shen Zhou greets everyone now, let all the people in Huaxia not participate in the auction and curb their sinister behavior.

But their black-box operation is something they can't stop.

They were determined to push the price of Chinese antiques to a higher level in order to make huge profits.

Shen Zhou's fingers gently turned his fingers, exuding a confident look of power, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this auction house is an industry under my name." ”

When Tang Ran heard this, he instantly felt that Shen Zhou was too dark. It turned out that everything was under his control, and she was worried in vain.

The Chinese people on the field, as well as the two people from the Cultural Relics Auction Association sitting in the back row, began to be a little anxious. They really can't watch these things fall into the hands of foreigners.

Just when they were fidgeting, they received another unified message.

All eyes subconsciously looked at Shen Zhou.

Seeing Shen Zhou raise his hand and start to join the auction.

Suzuki saw that there were still Huaxia people still sitting in the front row, and he immediately became excited.

Suzuki and Kato looked at each other with a meaningful smile on their faces.

Just now, the people in Huaxia didn't make a move, but later a few foreign businessmen made a move, and they understood, so they cooperated with those people and echoed each other to raise the price of Huaxia antiques.

After a few times, sure enough, the people of Huaxia couldn't sit still.

"Suzuki-kun, don't worry. Let's get to the bottom first. Kato said with a smile.

"Understood."

In their eyes, Shen Zhou is a big fat sheep.

They now want to make sure that the fat sheep has no patriotic feelings. If they had, they would definitely have made a lot of money tonight.

Suzuki quickly followed suit and made a bid of two million.

Shen Zhou did not hesitate and directly bid two and a half million.

Suzuki was excited and wanted to raise the price further, but was stopped by Kato.

Give the other party a little sweetness first, and then you can make a big deal.

In the end, Shen Zhou auctioned the antique at a price of 2.5 million yuan lower than the market price.

The next lot is also a Chinese antique, the wrench used by the last emperor, the workmanship is exquisite, the emperor has used it, and the price is naturally high.

This time Shen Zhou shot again, but in the end only two people persevered.

One is Nakamura in Sakura Country, and the other is Shen Zhou.

In the end, Shen Zhou auctioned this set of imperial wrenches for the late Qing Dynasty emperor at a price of 20 million below the market price.

Shen Zhou completely understood their mentality of wanting to fish, so he planned it.

Thank you for the January ticket voted by the slender treacherous shadow, thank you!
