Although it was only a few words, Bai Yifan was sure that the stone turtle was not an ordinary cultural relic.
However, when he looked at the two Japanese from the Fujita Conglomerate and the tall young man from the Morgan family, he didn't see any clues on their faces.
Was it hidden well, or was this stone turtle not their target for participating in this auction?
Bai Yifan frowned, took out his phone, and dialed Tan Zongming's number.
This was a stone turtle. Since there was a mystery behind it, why not let Old Tan bid for it first.
Anyway, with the 10 billion dollars from his deadbeat father as backup, even if the two direct members of the Fujita Conglomerate and the young man from the Morgan family joined forces, they definitely wouldn't have any hope of snatching the treasure from his hands.
Of course, it would be best if he could not use this money.
This was the trump card he had prepared for this auction.
The call went through, and Tan Zongming's voice came from the phone."" Why? Did you find a national treasure?"
"Yes." Bai Yifan nodded." We must get this stone turtle."”
"Good!" Tan Zongming didn't say much. After answering, he hung up the phone.
At this moment, someone had already started bidding for this stone turtle.
However, the bids were not high. After seven or eight bids, the bid was only three million.
It could be seen that everyone was not very interested in this stone turtle. The bidding was completely influenced by the fake bronze sword from before.
"Five million, I want this stone turtle. Please give me some face.”At this moment, Tan Zongming's voice rang out.
The moment he opened his mouth, he immediately raised the price by two million.
Many people at the scene knew this "big shot" who had a lot of connections in the business world of Shen City. Although it was a little strange, they were not very interested in this stone turtle, so they did not bid anymore.
"Five million for a Ming Dynasty stone turtle? What was this Tan Zongming trying to do?”Chen Qineng, who was observing the auction scene through the surveillance camera backstage, could not help but frown when he saw Tan Zongming suddenly make a move. He shouted," Old Wu!”
A middle-aged man walked over.
"Where did this stone turtle come from?" Chen Qineng pointed at the stone turtle on the surveillance screen and asked him.
" Oh, this stone turtle..." The middle-aged man smiled." During the Jiaqing period of the Ming Dynasty, the Yellow River frequently flooded. Some people said that it was caused by water monsters. The imperial court sent the master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Zhang Deguang, who was the protector of the country at that time, to carve this stone turtle and suppress it in the Yellow River. When we went to open a tomb by the Yellow River, we found this stone turtle. Seeing that no one cared about it, we took it back.”
"Just like that?" Chen Qineng seemed to be a little worried.
The middle-aged man shrugged and said," That's it. I say, Boss Chen, we've been working together for a long time. We've all been in the underworld before. If there's really something fishy going on, can it fool your eyes?”
"That's true." Chen Qineng nodded." However, why would Tan Zongming be interested in a stone turtle? He doesn't seem like such a person."
The middle-aged man laughed." Our country's entrepreneurs are very superstitious. Maybe Tan Zongming bought the luck of his company, family, or ancestral graves. Besides, he only offered five million yuan. Five million yuan for Ming Dynasty relics is not a high price.”
Chen Qineng nodded. He was finally no longer suspicious.
"Five million going once!"
"Five million going twice!"
"Five million going thrice! Congratulations to President Tan for winning the stone turtle!”
Zeng Xiaoxian acted like an auctioneer. After three bangs, he slammed his gavel down and announced that the stone turtle had been successfully auctioned by Tan Zongming.
Bai Yifan raised his eyebrows. He had thought that the Fujita Conglomerate and the Morgan Family would raise the price at the last minute, but the stone turtle was not their target.
"Hey, this is getting interesting." The corners of his mouth curled up slightly." It seems that even Chen Qineng and the others don't know that the stone turtle is hiding something. Otherwise, it would be impossible to get it so easily for a mere five million yuan.”
As he was talking to himself, Tan Zongming had already walked over.
"Yifan, something's wrong.”Tan Zongming frowned and said," It's not Chen Qineng's style to be photographed by me so easily.”
"What if they were also 'eye-catched'?”Bai Yifan smiled.
Tan Zongming was stunned.”
"Hehe, I suddenly thought of a good way to snipe them.”Bai Yifan patted Tan Zongming's shoulder and walked toward the auction stage with a smile.
The next item was slowly being auctioned. In the end, everyone saw a young man suddenly walk up to the auction stage.
" Sir…" Shen Bichen said, feeling a little awkward.
"Eh? Tycoon?" Zeng Xiaoxian was also surprised.
Bai Yifan smiled and took the microphone from him. He looked at the monitor and said,""Everyone, do you want to know why President Tan spent five million to buy that stone turtle just now?”# Date:05 15 2019 5:45PM
