“So, how much would such a large Qin Dynasty bronze ding generally fetch in the market?” Luo Feng curiously inquired.

“Qin Dynasty bronzeware is expensive in the market. For one of this weight, it would typically cost hundreds of millions. Not long ago, a similar piece was auctioned off in the south of the Yangtze River. It was also about one meter tall and sold for 290 million yuan.”

“How much? Three hundred million for one of a similar size?” Luo Feng asked in astonishment.

“Yes, that’s the price. Moreover, your piece is a replica of an actual Nine Zhou ding, so I think doubling the price would not be a problem at all! Of course, the doubled price is the minimum. I have no idea what the maximum limit would

“

“Hmmm.”

Luo Feng nodded in response, his mind forming a rough estimate of the value.

“If the imperial jade seal were to be sold today, I think it might break the ceiling of the antique market!” Qin Rubing shuddered as she thought of the jade seal, wondering who would ultimately possess such an item.

“Perhaps! I am looking forward to it too!” Luo Feng nodded and glanced at the time on Qin Rubing’s watch. The auction was about to begin. “Little Qin, I will need your help in managing the auction later!”

“Me again?” Qin Rubing rolled her eyes. “It’s as if I am so easy to order around.” “You’re definitely easy to order around. Just not easy to get into bed with…”

With that, Luo Feng took off running toward the backstage of the conference room, leaving an angry Qin Rubing behind.

Of course, when pursuing a girl, a man cannot be too honest. Small jokes must be made frequently, as that is the path to victory.

“Hello, everyone! I am Qin Rubing!”

“I am sure many of the wealthy and experts here have seen me before!” “I am the owner of the Rare Treasure Pavilion!”

“Today, I have been invited by Mr. Luo to showcase some Qin Dynasty relics on his behalf! If you are interested, you can bid directly! The final price will not be determined by the hammer but by Mr. Luo’s nod.”

Looking below, she saw that more than a thousand people had already taken their seats.

Qin Rubing was a little nervous.

Luo Feng’s events seemed to be growing larger.

The last one had only a few hundred people.

Now, there were over a thousand.

“In the backstage vault, we have all the unearthed relics from this time, complete with classification and expert authentication certificates, all genuine antiques!”

“Now, the first item up for auction is a Qin Dynasty jade piece, made of Lantian jade…”

Everyone has their area of expertise.

Qin Rubing’s profession was precisely this.

Her introduction to the relics was smooth and eloquent.

“The grand auction has finally begun!”

“Antiques are never short of buyers; the key is to have good antiques!”

“Now, this piece of ancient Qin jade is at a disadvantage because of the Lantian jade’s mediocre quality.”

“It was bought for only 1.8 million? That’s quite cheap!”

“Hehe, very cheap, but just wait! When the national treasure-level items come out, you won’t even have the qualifications to bid!”

In no time, two million-dollar relics were auctioned off in the conference room.

People were quietly discussing all sorts of topics.

“This scene is too familiar. Will Mr. Luo be collecting money in sacks again?”

“Hahaha, it seems that no matter what relic is taken, the winner always appears to be Mr. Luo!”

“Well, who else has the unique skill to find such treasures?”

“Just auction off the imperial jade seal and Tai’a sword already! These small trinkets are not exciting enough!”

“Those items probably won’t be coming out this morning!”

“That’s right, the morning session might only be for small miscellaneous items!”

As expected, the morning session went by, and only smaller Qin Dynasty jade pieces, bronze coins, and antiques were auctioned. Their values ranged from 100,000 to 10 million yuan.

“The morning auction is now concluded! Mr. Luo has prepared a sumptuous lunch for everyone downstairs. Please return to the conference room promptly at 2 pm!”

After the morning auction ended, Luo Feng joined Qin Rubing, Su Meiji, Li Shishi, and others for lunch on the seventh floor.

“Luo Feng, with more than 3,000 relics, it may take seven or eight days to complete all transactions! How about this, I’ll head back to the health center to handle some matters, and you can notify me when it’s time to search for treasures again?”

While having lunch, Su Meiji proposed to leave.

This made many treasure hunters, including Luo Feng, reluctant to see her go.

They had not yet won her over, and she was already leaving?

“Alright, you can go and handle your affairs. Once our auction is over, we will need some rest before we continue treasure hunting. We will notify you then! However, you must make time to attend my celebration banquet. Even if there are no flights available, I can arrange for someone from the military to bring you here! ”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes widened.

“Really, Old Luo? You can boss around the military now?”

“What does this mean? How is Old Luo connected with the military?”

“How arrogant has Old Luo become to arrange for the military to transport Su, the beautiful lady?”

“I wonder if I can have such treatment? To arrange for the military to fly me around?”

Faced with everyone’s teasing, Luo Feng awkwardly scratched his head and said, “It’s not really an arrangement, but more like giving them a heads-up! I am acquainted with the chiefs of the Xianyang and Jiangnan’s military department.”

After all, he had generously donated money on a voluntary basis.

Moreover, Luo Feng’s treasure hunting essentially helped the country find treasures, as he often sold the valuable items to the government..
