Those buyers who were interested in the bronze ban and felt that they were strong enough to have a chance to win the auction were also inviting bidders with their companions or themselves.  The appraisal experts were discussing in low voices.  "The reserve price is one hundred thousand." When the auctioneer saw everyone sitting back down, he started the auction.  However, there was silence at the scene. After waiting for several minutes, no one bid.  Seeing this situation, the auctioneer did not find it strange, because this is quite common in the process of precious auctions. Just like shooting the first bird, all those who are interested in this bronze ban do not want to do that.  Stand out.  The auctioneer was also prepared for this situation. He looked around and paused slightly in front of him on the left.  "Five million!" Immediately, I saw a man in his fifties with a thin face, a pair of black-framed tortoiseshell glasses on the bridge of his nose, a neat appearance, and looked like an old scholar. He raised his placard and quoted the price.  .  In fact, this old scholar had been somewhat active before, and since he had never photographed anything, everyone knew that he was probably a charlatan.  But the situation at this time was like a tense battlefield. Suddenly, a crisp gunshot broke the silence on the battlefield, and then bullets spurted out, instantly raising the price of the lot tenfold, reaching  As much as five million.  "Okay! The boss here bids six million!" the auctioneer said again, with a hint of excitement in his voice.  Infecting everyone present.  Six million seems to be a rallying call.  Let the bosses who had just recharged their batteries start to sit up straight.  The eyes began to become brighter, and some of them who couldn't wait began to quote prices, and the price increased by as much as two million as soon as they made the sale.  "Eight million!" After hearing this quotation, Qiao Qingtai's expression became a little nervous. He touched Chu Chen beside him with his elbow and asked: "Xiao Chu, are we going to make a bid?" "We'll talk about it first.  "Chu Chen smiled slightly and gave Qiao Qingtai a reassuring look.  then.  He turned back to pay attention to the auction information. However, most of the time, his eyes did not pay attention to those who were bidding. Instead, intentionally or unintentionally, he would look at a middle-aged man sitting on the right side of their seat.  .  This person is of medium height, has a pair of bright eyes, a high nose, a confident smile on his face, and is dressed appropriately.  You can tell from one look that he is a successful person.  The reason why Chu Chen paid attention to him intentionally or unintentionally was because from just now to now, this person has never made a bid.  To say the least, he and Chu Chen were the only ones at the scene who hadn't bid yet.  It was because this person had obviously spent a little more time observing the bronze taboo than the others.  The observation time is long enough to be nothing, as mentioned above.  This is most likely a preferential treatment for old customers, though.  While he was observing, there was a look in his eyes that he wanted to put something in his bag.  Chu Chen saw it clearly.  Therefore, Chu Chen would put his eyes on this person from time to time, preparing to follow this person's bid.  In addition, the current price is not even close to the bottom line. Even if he guesses wrong, there is still time to make up for it, so he is not in a hurry.  Qiao Qingtai saw Chu Chen's eyes and smiled sheepishly. He knew that he would be confused if he was concerned now. This made him somewhat lucky that he did not take the bidding on himself, otherwise he would definitely get a big deal when bidding.  Losing money.  As time goes by, when someone bids more than 10 million, the middle-aged man can no longer hold back.  At this time, there were only five bidders, and one of them was the old scholar who was suspected of being a shill just now.  When the old scholar quoted 10.5 million, the middle-aged man suddenly raised his placard to bid. What surprised everyone was that this man directly added 1.5 million to his first bid, making the price directly known to 1.5 million.  Twelve million.  This powerful way of increasing prices made many people look at him with admiration.  "This boss bids 12 million. I wonder if anyone else will raise the price?" At this time, the auctioneer's tone gradually increased, and his excitement was palpable.  A pot-bellied boss came to his senses, frowned again, and then increased the price by 50,000 yuan. However, no matter how bad the eyesight of the people present was, they could vaguely see that the price was now somewhat close to his bottom line.  .  Chu Chen saw that now was the time to make a bid, so he raised his sign and quoted the price. He did not increase the price as aggressively as the middle-aged man, only increasing it by 100,000.  But at this price, it has already put the fat boss¡¯s face onHesitation was evident as Chu Chen couldn't make up his mind whether to follow or not.  Chu Chen smiled slightly at the fat boss, but it was not him who raised the price next, but the middle-aged boss just now. His price increase this time was not high, just like Chu Chen, it was only 100,000.  ??Next, Chu Chen and this middle-aged man, you and I paid 80,000 and 100,000, and you came and went for a while. After a few back and forth, the price unexpectedly climbed to 14 million.  Seeing this situation, the fat boss just now could only smile bitterly, wiped the cold sweat from his head, and gave up the fight.  At this time, only Chu Chen and the middle-aged man were bidding at the scene. The other guests looked like they had nothing to do with themselves, watching the excitement. The auctioneer, with a smile on his face, said every time  As both parties increased their prices, the smiles became even brighter, and by the end they were almost laughing out of their eyes.  Next, the prices came out from the mouths of the two people one by one. It seemed calm, but it felt like the atmosphere in the room was getting more and more tense. When the price exceeded 15 million,  Chu Chen suddenly lowered his head and meditated, as if he stopped following.  Seeing this, the middle-aged man's face showed a look of satisfaction, while Qiao Qingtai was extremely anxious. If he hadn't still had some sense in his heart, he might have made an offer.  However, just when the middle-aged man thought he was the final winner, the old scholar suddenly made an offer.  This made the man feel quite unhappy, and he immediately increased the price.  "Xiao Chu. You wouldn't have guessed that this person would take action, would you?" Qiao Qingtai asked curiously.  Chu Chen smiled slightly: "I just saw that he had this intention, let him chase for a while before talking." Qiao Qingtai scratched his head when he heard this.  Chu Chen had clearly said that he would not give up just now, but he almost didn't believe Chu Chen, which made him somewhat embarrassed.  Chu Chen smiled, quite understanding of Qiao Qingtai's behavior, but now that the auction was at its most critical, he didn't say much and kept paying attention to the bidding situation between the two.  Because the old scholar suddenly made a bid, some people at the scene thought that he was not a trustee, but Chu Chen did not think so.  Because this person is careful every time he increases the price. Why would he be like this if he wasn't entrusted with it?  When the price exceeded 16 million, although the old scholar still wanted to increase the price, he really couldn't stand such a tense atmosphere, and finally gave up with regret.  The middle-aged man was also quite satisfied with the result, but what made him feel extremely depressed was that just when the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Chu Chen actually bid again, and it was suddenly increased to 18 million.  This made many people present take a breath.  "Eighteen million and one million!" The middle-aged man looked at Chu Chen deeply.  "Twenty million!" Chu Chen gave him a confident smile.  The middle-aged man was stunned.  He was originally affected by the two situations just now. Now that Chu Chen has increased the price so drastically, it gives him a feeling that it is difficult to match. This is exactly the effect that Chu Chen wanted to achieve when he suddenly stopped.  After one vigorous effort, it will weaken again, or three times and it will be exhausted.  The middle-aged man pondered for a moment.  In the end, maybe because he felt that it was more likely that Chu Chen would continue to follow, he finally chose to give up.  "Twenty million three times. Deal!" As soon as he finished speaking, the auctioneer knocked down the gavel in his hand with a red face.  There was also a warm sound at the scene.  "Xiao Chu. When will we go back?" Qiao Qingtai asked impatiently as soon as the auction ended.  "Let's go now." Chu Chen replied. Although there are a few more items to be auctioned, they are not what Chu Chen wants. Besides, except for some fakes that are deliberately mixed in, what are the sources of the other items?  There are some questions, so he is not surprised.  Chu Chen went to pay by swiping his card, and the staff began to pack the bronze. Because the items were very valuable, and the bronzes from thousands of years ago were very fragile, the staff were careful and cautious when packing. When it was completed,  , this black market auction also just ended.  When I went back, I changed into a modified commercial vehicle, otherwise the bronze ban, which is more than 100 years long, would definitely not be able to fit in it.  The journey was uneventful. When they returned to the hotel, there were many people waiting there. One of them showed his ID to Chu Chen and Qiao Qingtai. After getting Qiao Qingtai's approval, they had people work together to move the things out of the car.  Then carefully put it on another car.  Someone then took out a stack of documents for Chu Chen and Qiao Qingtai to sign. Finally, after Qiao Qingtai had a phone call with someone to confirm, they drove away.  Although he only had to sit there and talk today, Qiao Qingtai was old after all, and he was very excited when bidding, which made him physically and mentally exhausted, so he hurriedlyAfter dinner, Qiao Qingtai went back to his room to rest.  Of course, Chu Chen was much better than Qiao Qingtai. He and Zuo Shan went to his room together, took out the new pastel porcelain vase that they had bought at the afternoon auction, and then took out the other three pieces of porcelain. After  After the arrangement, his judgment was indeed confirmed and the true address of the treasure was found.  Zuo Shan was excited about such a result. After a while, he thought of a question and asked curiously: "Master Chu, how did you know that this bottle was the key clue?" Chu Chen smiled  Said: "At first, it was because the painting styles were similar, and we were more sensitive after studying it for so many days, that we discovered that there was something wrong with this bottle. Fortunately, we discovered it quickly, otherwise we might have missed it!"
