391: C391 This Is Blatant Fraud

C391 This Is Blatant Fraud

Mu Chen brought Lin Yuyan into the auction hall and found a seat.

Maybe it was because of the national treasure that the auction house was full of people.

Soon, the auction began.

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

The Caucasian Owen, dressed in a black tuxedo, walked up to the podium and showed the painting of Mount Fuchun. Then, he began to narrate, "Today, the theme of our auction is this painting of Mount Fuchun!"

"It is the national treasure of Great Xia, a unique national treasure. Because the Fuchun Mountain Painting that has been circulating on the market are all fakes. "Thus, this Fuchun Mountain Residence Portrait in my hands is exceptionally precious!"

"Everyone, there is no need to doubt the authenticity of this Fuchun Mountain Residence Portrait, because it originated from the former provincial capital's number one boss, Jiang Dingtian!"

"Mr. Jiang Dingtian has a deep foundation in the study of antiques. I'm afraid no one here would doubt it, right?"

As soon as Owen finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the crowd.

"I'm sure everyone wants this national treasure of Great Xia very much!" Owen continued, "Today, we will give everyone here a chance. We will let you use your own strength to take away the world's number one, the Mount Fuchun Juumonji!"

Another wave of applause that could topple mountains and overturn seas.

"Alright, everyone!" After pushing the atmosphere to a climax, Owen said with a smile, "Now, I announce the official start of the auction!"

"The starting price for the Fullspring Mountain Map, 10 million!"

"Everyone, please start bidding!"

Owen hammered his hammer.

As soon as Owen finished his hammer, a voice sounded, "11 million!"

The bidder was Watari and his son.

Mu Chen did not immediately follow up with the bid.

Because Mu Chen knew that a national treasure like the Fullspring Mountain Map would definitely be very popular.

However, what surprised Mu Chen was that in 20 seconds, there was not a single person in the crowded venue.

Mu Chen didn't know that these people had been warned by the auction house.

No one dared to compete with the company.

"Good!" Seeing this scene, Owen was very satisfied. He shouted, "Eleven million going once, eleven million going twice!"

"If I shout three times and no one follows me, then this one and only Fuchun Mountain Residence Painting in the world will belong to Mr. Watari from the company!"

"So it was the company that got in the way!" Mu Chen instantly understood what Owen meant.

He immediately raised his card and said, "30 million!"

The moment Mu Chen's words fell, the smile on Owen's face froze.

He did not expect that there would be someone who would dare to increase the price.

Going against the company, did he not want to live anymore?

Du Bian Ichiro's expression was also very ugly. He immediately asked Du Bian Ichiro: "Didn't Owen say that the arrangements were seamless? How could such a thing happen?"

"I don't know either." Du Biancheng shook his head and looked at Mu Chen. "It's Mu Chen, the security guard of the Flying Dragon Group."

"Bag Tooth Road!" Watanese Ichiro cursed. "How did he get in?"

"I don't know." Watari Ichiro still shook his head.

However, the most awkward one was still Owen.

Since someone had already bid, Owen had no choice but to adapt to the situation. He squeezed out a smile and said, "Alright, someone bid 30 million!"

"30 million for the first time!"

"30 million for the second time!"

"Is there anyone else bidding? If there isn't, this Spring and Rich Mountain Painting will belong to this thirty million!"

"31 million!" Watari Ichiro gritted his teeth and followed the price.

Originally, the price could be bought with eleven million, but now it was forcefully raised to thirty million by Mu Chen.

This made Du Bian and his son very unhappy.

"Such a huge company is so stingy?" Mu Chen sneered, his face full of disdain, "The Juumonji of Fuchun Mountain is the national treasure of Great Xia. It is the only one in the world. Your price is simply humiliating the Juumonji of Fuchun Mountain!"

"I bid 100 million!"

As soon as Mu Chen said this, the crowd was in an uproar.

Even Watari Ichiro and his son couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

"Father, should we follow?" Watari Ichiro asked carefully.

"Follow my ass!" Watari Ichiro said in embarrassment, "Using a hundred million to auction off the Fuchun Mountain Map is far beyond our budget! This deal is not worth it at all!"

"But if we let Mu Chen bid for it, it will be hard for us to explain to the Head State Preceptor!" Du Bian's Pure Ichiro frowned.

"Haha! The mountain people have their own plans!" Watari Ichiro smiled slyly and whispered into Watari's ear.

Watari Ichiro relaxed his brows when he heard that. He raised his thumb and praised, "Father, you're really brilliant!"

Owen, who was on the platform, had also been paying attention to Watari Ichiro and his son, to see if they would choose to vote with them.

However, Watari and his son did not do anything.

They all cupped their fists in front of their chest, looking as if it was none of their business.

Then, Owen received a text message on his phone.

Seeing the contents of the text message, Owen immediately revealed a confident smile.

He calmly said, "This gentleman offers 100 million. Is there anyone higher than this?"

The entire place was silent.

"100 million once!"

"One hundred million twice!"

One hundred million three times! "

No one continued bidding until the three chances were used up.2

Owen immediately used his hammer to knock on the table and said excitedly, "Congratulations to this gentleman who bid one hundred million. This unique painting of the rich spring mountains belongs to you from now on!"

"However, before taking away the painting of Mount Fullspring, I would like to request this gentleman to head to the backstage of our Foreigner Auction House and pay the price of one hundred million."

"One hundred million?" Lin Yuyan felt like she was dreaming and asked worriedly, "Mu Chen, where did you get so much money?"

"Don't worry, my wife." Mu Chen smiled. "If I can shoot it, I have money."

Mu Chen brought Lin Yuyan with him and followed Owen to the backstage of the Asian Auction House.

Under Owen's arrangement, the finance staff showed the POS machine. "Sir, it's a total of 800 million. Please swipe your card."

"800 million?" Mu Chen frowned. "What's going on?"

"The final bid was obviously one hundred million. How did it become eight hundred million when we paid?"

"It's like this, sir!" Owen hurriedly explained, "Our payment is using the Warhawk currency!"

"According to the exchange rate between the two countries, it's 800 million!"

"You are blatantly cheating!" Mu Chen could not help but smile.
