Chapter 19 Deal, Barton's Gun and Knight

"Is this M1873?"

"Although the antiques are indeed collectible, I think it is between 800 thousand and 900 thousand dollars."

Before the host could tell the price, the audience began to guess the value of the pistol.

At this moment, Buster, who was on the second floor, raised his paddle!

This time, the price was increased by 10 thousand dollars!

The host was stunned for a moment, and then said,

"Mr. Buster, although your status is undoubtedly high, the auction has not begun yet. Please don't be so anxious."

After saying that, Buster took the card in shame.

"Sorry, it's me."

Buster? A big shot in the antique world!

Even this kind of person wanted to get this, so the people on the first floor were almost out of the game.

Now the only one who could contend against it was on the second floor.

"This is not only a simple antique gun but also a pistol set up by the famous general George Barton in the Second World War! The starting price is four hundred thousand! Each time you raise the price by 10 thousand dollars!"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened!

Most of the people present had seen the Treasure Hunting Master broadcast last night. Who would have thought that the items discovered yesterday would appear in the auction today!

Lee had expected that Buster would raise his paddle again.

He wondered how much this old man liked this gun.

Lee couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't sell it to him at 300,000 dollars yesterday. It seemed that he had lowered the price to the lowest.

The difference between 300 thousand dollars and 400 thousand dollars was 100 thousand dollars!

Of course, it was a common trick of these old people to lower the price.

Lee's face was full of bitterness. According to the instructions, the price of the gun was 500 thousand dollars, but now it seemed that it was difficult to sell it to 450 thousand dollars.

While he was thinking, someone suddenly raised the paddle on the second floor, and this time the price directly jumped to 450 thousand dollars!

Lee was stunned.

"What a shame! It's unexpected!"

He had thought that with Buster's reputation in the industry, no one would offer a price. He didn't expect that there would be such a person who dared to compete with him!

He raised his head and saw a young man sitting opposite Lee.

"Mr. Lee, I really admire your ability to identify things. I know the current situation of your company. I will buy the "Barton's gun" at a high price! To make friends with you."

Lee looked at the young man up and down carefully. He looked like a smart man in a suit, but the way he made friends with others was really stupid.

Lee sneered and looked at Buster again.

The price reached 500 thousand dollars this time!

In just a few seconds, the price had been increased by 100 thousand dollars!

Now that the price was sold out, neither the seller nor the buyer would lose too much.

But Lee felt that there was still room for the price to rise, so he looked at the man, looking forward to his bidding.

But the man gave up after he saw the attendant say something in his ear.

At last, the price of "Barton's gun" was 500 thousand dollars.

Buster was excited to know the result.

"I've got it. General Buster's gun. Hey, buddy, let's celebrate!"

Hearing Buster's exciting words, Lee couldn't help but feel bitter.

Sure enough, it was 500 thousand dollars, and there was no room for even 10 thousand dollars to rise.

Well, he wouldn't need to extort money from the old man.

After some investigation, he found out that the boy who had previously bid with Buster was Billy, the founder of the biggest local chamber of commerce.

Lee's eyes widened at the news.

The young man looked about 25 years old.

He was only 25 years old! He had become the largest tycoon of the local chamber of commerce!

His future achievements would be no worse than Lee's!

"Well, the last item has come to the auction. I believe everyone knows what it is!"

As the host on the stage spoke, two figures rushed up from behind, with a square object in their hands.

As the finale, the oil painting of Leonardo Da Vinci was surely on the stage!

The audience watched the oil painting carefully.

Although there was a part of the chemical reaction, there was no flaw in watching from a distance!

The fluffy hair of the war horse could be seen faintly. The fearless eyes of the knight and the spirit of a man who was willing to risk his life seemed to be placed in front of him!

Many people came here to see the oil painting! Whether they could get it or not, they were satisfied to see this oil painting today!

Lee was excited! He wondered how much this painting would fetch.

"Leonardo Da Vinci famous work 'Knight', the starting price is 10 million dollars, and each time the bidding price is 500 thousand dollars, the bidding begins!"

As soon as the host gave the order, all the people were excited!

Some of them couldn't help but stand up!

All of a sudden, the people in the auction were like primitive men, and the shouts that came one after another were really noisy.

Lee didn't expect that an oil painting would make such a scene? It was no less than the people who had robbed crazily in the rubbish heap yesterday!

In the end, if the host hadn't comforted the scene, no one knew how long this scene would last!

"10.5 million dollars!"

Soon after the crowd quieted down, someone took action.

Lee was not a collector and didn't understand the value of the oil painting. In his opinion, it was just a product that could be sold at a good price.

But for the collector, it meant a lot!

"11 million!"

"11.5 million!"

The price along with the oil painting was rising rapidly.

Seeing this scene, the people around were trembling with fear!

Each time the price would rise by 500,000 dollars! How much would the oil painting end up with? 20 million?

"Ouch."

The onlookers couldn't help but gasp. They thought that Lee would make a fortune this time.

Even Jessica, who was used to the big scenes, opened her eyes wide.

It was just an oil painting, but the price was so high!

"No, this painting is worth this price. Mr. Leonardo Da Vinci's work can be called extinct!"

Xiao Mei, who was supposed to be calm, was also in high spirits.

Lee knew that Xiao Mei was a top student and loved Mr. Leonardo Da Vinci's work.

But for Xiao Mei, she was already satisfied that she could touch the painting of "Knight"!

If it weren't for his limited strength, Lee would have left this painting as a gift for Xiao Mei.

"15 million!"

A loud voice interrupted Lee's thoughts.

He raised his head and saw the man standing in front of him was the tycoon of the chamber of commerce! Billy!

The other side also cast a kind glance at Lee.

It seemed that he wanted to make friends with him, but it cost him 10 million. It's sort of unbelievable.

Lee was stunned for a moment. The price of 15 million dollars made the others stop at the sight of it. In the end, they could do nothing but watch the price be fixed!

"The painting of Knight this time is won by Mr. Billy! Please go backstage to pick up the item and complete the payment."
