Chapter 708: Interesting Sergei

This guy can actually speak Chinese!

Li Yi suddenly raised his eyebrows. What is this guy's background?

It looks like he's mixed race, right?

And as soon as he came in, he looked around, and then came to his position. It was very strange...

"Excuse me, have we known each other before?"

Upon hearing Li Yi's words, Sergey immediately waved his hand and said:

"I know you, but you may not know me, but that doesn't matter. Don't we know each other this time?"

Who is Sergei?

What's his origin?

Li Yi is currently brainstorming crazily in his mind. Judging from his demeanor, he is of extraordinary origin. What is the purpose of coming to the auction this time?

But what Li Yi is sure of is that he is definitely not here for the steel smelting factory!

This is basically certain, because for such people, steel smelting plants are of little use to them.

Could it be that he also came here for the portrait passed down from his ancestors?

This is somewhat possible, but if this is the case, wouldn't he and Sergey have an antagonistic relationship?

After all, he and Berekov are now allies...

The more I thought about these issues, the more complicated they became. Finally, Li Yi said in a deep voice:

"Can you tell me why you're here?"

Sergey shrugged his shoulders and said:

"I think this auction is boring, but my family insists on letting me come. I have no choice but to find a corner to be bored for a while, and I happened to see you!"

"I'm not telling you, you're sitting in the corner as a Dragon Country man. It's really eye-catching. I was curious, so I came over!"

Li Yi clicked his tongue. This reason makes sense, but it's still a bit far-fetched, okay?

At this time, the host of the auction, the auctioneer, had arrived in front of the stage and began to prepare. He was a serious-looking middle-aged man. Young people would definitely not be able to handle such an occasion. This The identity of the middle-aged man does not look simple either.

"This is one of the most famous auctioneers in the entire Federation, Peter Geller. He was once in charge of the auction of the Queen's crown. He has a high status. Gee, it seems that this auction will be interesting!"

Li Yi raised his eyebrows. Sergey knew a lot, but the identity of this middle-aged man was indeed scary. Has he ever auctioned the Queen's crown?

"The queen's crown, you mean Romanov?"

Sergey immediately smiled and said: "It's not a real crown, but an amethyst!"

Suddenly, Li Yi suddenly realized that there were indeed many precious gems or treasures in history, named with various luxurious names. It seems that this time the official high-level officials found a lot of good things in Kajin's treasure house. !

That painting is just one of them!

This auction is equivalent to a long experience. Anyway, according to Li Yi's current worth, it is estimated that he can only auction the steel smelting plant.

Sergey was very surprised. If it were anyone else, he would have been looking forward to this treasure to some extent, because not all the auction items will be listed, only unimportant items, or some items that are popular. These products are ignored.

But why didn't Li Yi show any look of expectation?

This really made Sergey a little curious.

Li Yi was thinking at this moment, these people are all focused on those precious things, the steel smelting factory, are there no serious competitors?

This is a good thing!

Sergey didn't know that Li Yi's target turned out to be a factory. In his opinion, Li Yi was also targeting a certain unparalleled treasure, but he couldn't find any clues from him.

"Mr. Li, I'm very curious. They all said that you forced Cajin to leave. Is this true?"

Although he asked this question seemingly casually, Sergey actually didn't believe it very much. When he heard about it, he probably thought it was a joke.

But when he actually saw Li Yi, he was a little confused.

Could it be that the rumors are actually true?

Li Yi didn't know why Sergey asked, but he still said:

"Those are just rumors. Don't take them seriously. Is there any way I can force Kajin to leave?

He almost forced me to leave! "

Although Li Yi was denying it, his expression looked very relaxed! There is no sense of worry or fear at all!

This made Sergey even more suspicious.

At this time, the host's very magnetic voice came from the auction stage:

"Welcome everyone to this auction. Of course, I believe that everyone here has participated in many high-end auctions, right?

So I won’t say any more nonsense. The proceeds from this auction will be used to replenish the national treasury. As everyone knows, without further ado, everyone is almost here. The auction has officially begun! "

Then, part of the lights in the hall were extinguished, leaving a few beams of light shining on the stage. The serious face of the middle-aged auctioneer looked even more shocking. He was worthy of being their number one auctioneer here. This pomp is well done.

"The first lot is from Mr. Cajin's personal collection. There are actually many stories about this lot. This is an ornament that Cajin got at the antique market. It is a statue, the size of a human head, and it is in a complete piece. The carvings on the stone are said to be the works of famous medieval carving masters..."

Li Yi took two glances and basically confirmed that the collection value of this thing is not very high because it is a fake!

This statue is called Tianma Xingkong in Chinese. It is carved of a man with open arms embracing a big tree. The real statue is in the Emperor Museum. In fact, this is just a work of the master who just learned carving not long ago.

But even so, the original is worth a lot of money, at least not something Li Yi can afford, but the fake, although it is a high imitation, the price is not too high.

Sure enough, after a few brief introductions, the auctioneer said:

"This statue is a later imitation, so it is enough to be used as a good start. The starting price is five thousand US dollars! Every increase in price will be no less than one thousand US dollars! Bidding begins now!"

Although it is an imitation, the master's name is very resounding. It is very pleasing to the eye to buy it as an ornament and put it in the study. Therefore, many people raised the racket. After all, it would be a bit unsatisfactory if the auction fails as soon as it is launched. Do not care.

Auctioneer Peter Geller said with a smile:

"On the 26th, I bid six thousand dollars! This is my first time bidding six thousand dollars!"

"No. 12! Offer seven thousand dollars..."
