"You don't need to worry about the authenticity of this picture. This is Jinbi Tower! It's the secret treasure conference held by the United Chamber of Commerce! Who dares to sell fakes at the secret treasure conference? How can it be possible to accept fakes at the secret treasure conference?!" Then

The host's words were powerful and powerful.

After hearing what he said, everyone became quiet. In fact, everyone knew in their hearts that the things at the secret treasure conference could not be fake. However, such an inconspicuous landscape painting was said to be a drawing by Master Gongshu Pan.

?It’s just a bit unbelievable.

The host looked around, taking in everyone's expressions, and then said: "The seal, the handwriting and the ink on this picture have all been carefully examined by experts. It is indeed true.

From the hand of Master Gongshu Ban!"

After listening to the host's explanation, everyone naturally no longer had any doubts.

Someone couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Yu, can the waiter hold that picture for everyone to look at?"

The host's surname is Yu. Because he presides over this secret treasure conference every year, he has quite a bit of prestige among businessmen from various countries. "Mr. Yu" is a respectful title for him.

"I want to say sorry to you all." The host shook his head and rebuffed: "This drawing by Master Gongshu Ban is too precious and cannot be mistaken. The seller requires that it cannot be passed on to others before it changes hands.

Hands, I can’t satisfy everyone’s request.”

This is normal. After all, this is not an ordinary antique calligraphy and painting. There is a secret hidden in this painting. How can I just let others take a look at it before it is sold?

No one raised any objections, and the host got to the point, "Now, the bidding begins. This drawing by Master Gongshu Pan has a minimum price of ten thousand taels of silver!"

The base price of ten thousand taels is really not low!

Under the booth, there was a low gasp. Some mid-level merchants who were originally prepared to try their luck decided to give up and no longer participate when they heard the low price.

Not long after the host on the stage finished speaking, someone started bidding:

"Eleven thousand taels!" This was a businessman sitting in the elegant seat on the first floor. He came up and added the price of one thousand taels of silver.

"Twelve thousand taels!" Someone immediately followed the price not to be outdone.

"Fifteen thousand taels!"

"Sixteen thousand taels!"

"Eighteen thousand!"

"Twenty thousand taels!"

"..."

Prices kept coming and going, but in a short time, the price in that picture rose to 30,000 taels of silver!

After 30,000 taels, in the hall on the first floor, the number of people following the price began to decrease. Many of the people sitting in the seats in the hall were just ordinary businessmen. The businessmen were very profitable. Even those who took pictures were prepared to sell them.

I'm afraid there are only a few people who go to do detailed research. If the auction price exceeds their inner budget, or they feel that the investment may be greater than the gain, they will naturally stop.

The next people who followed the price were mostly powerful people, and in some of the boxes on the second floor, more and more people started to participate in the bidding.

"Thirty-five thousand taels!"

"Thirty-six thousand taels!"

"..."

"Sir, shall we follow the price?" Jiang An was a little eager to give it a try.

Several other stewards also looked at Cen Xiyan expectantly with their eyes shining.

Master Gongshu Ban's drawing! As a disciple of the Yuanyin Sect, how can you not be moved?

Cen Xiyan was able to understand and appreciate their psychology. The history of this time and space began to deviate from the Southern and Northern Dynasties. The historical records before the Southern and Northern Dynasties were the same as what she had learned in modern textbooks.

Gongshu Ban, that is, Master Lu Ban from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the master who was called the "ancestor" by later generations of carpenters! That legendary figure who was good at creating inventions and made outstanding contributions to architecture and machinery!

"Gong Shuzi whittled bamboo wood to make a magpie, and it flew into the sky without landing for three days." This is recorded in "Mozi. Lu Wen". The wooden bird made by Lu Ban could fly high into the sky by the wind and would not land for three days!

How come the disciples of the Yuanyin Sect don't want to see such a magical machine technique?

Cen Xiyan's delta wing was used to fly over the Raya Snow Mountains. Many disciples in the sect believed that she was inspired by Master Gongshu Pan.

The disciples of the Yuanyin Sect and the great enthusiasm and interest in Master Hui Gongshu Ban's drawings may just be their yearning and pursuit of exquisite craftsmanship. But what about the dignitaries from various countries who came up with this drawing? I'm afraid... they are more interested in it.

, it is the application of Gongshu Ban's mechanism skills in military affairs! During his lifetime, Gongshu Ban helped the Chu State make weapons...

Cen Xiyan sighed secretly, and then said: "Follow!"

They participated in the secret treasure conference in the name of Yaqu. As we all know, Yaqu is a woodware company. It is not surprising that they are interested in Gongsu-like drawings. It would be strange if they did not participate in the bidding!

After receiving Cen Xiyan's instructions, Jiang An immediately followed the price loudly, "Three thousand nine thousand taels!"

Yaqu's follow-up price did not attract much attention, because it was quickly surpassed by the subsequent bidding.

Of course, maybe someone who is interested has noticed Yaqu's actions.

The bidding continued, and soon it exceeded fifty thousand taels!

There are very few people following the price in the lobby on the first floor, and the price following in the private rooms on the second floor has still entered a fierce stage.

When it reached 60,000 taels, Jiang An still wanted to open his mouth, but Cen Xiyan stopped him, "No more, let's stop!"

"I won't follow you anymore..."

Jiang An looked regretful, and the expressions of several others were similar.

However, they also know in their hearts that the people bidding now are probably people from the power centers of various countries. It is not surprising that those people are determined to win the public drawing. But although Yaqu is dealing in wood furniture,

It's just a merchant. It's a bit strange to follow such an exaggerated price so closely.

When the bidding reached 70,000 taels, Cen Xiyan noticed that on this day, someone had never auctioned an item before, and had never even participated in a bidding call. Someone in box 13 followed the price, "Seventy-two thousand taels."

!" His voice was loud and rough, and his accent sounded a bit like a northerner.

"It's the caravan from the Enu Kingdom." Jiang An glanced at the box and whispered.

"Yeah." Cen Xiyan nodded, she guessed it.

"Seventy-five thousand taels." This came from Box 9.

It's an acquaintance again! It's Wei San's voice, they finally took action!

"Seventy-eight thousand taels." Someone in Box 11 also spoke.

That was the box where Yang Sili and Yang Siyanlin were, but this time the person who asked the price was not Yang Siyanlin, but Yang Sili himself.

"Eighty thousand taels."

The lazy voice came from the guest in box No. 17, the mysterious man who bought two wood carvings from Yaqu at a high price.

"One hundred thousand taels..."
