    The carbon 14 analyzer cannot be faked. This thing is an antique from the 18th century, so Qin Shiou knew that its price would not be low, but 1.6 million was not high, so as soon as the price came out, he raised his hand and shouted  : "1.65 million."

    The other collectors probably looked at him strangely. Many people in the front row turned to look at him. The wealthy Emirati businessman who had previously taken the "Women's Head" also waved his hand and said: "1.7 million!"

    Qin Shiou smiled and said nothing. He was waiting for other people's quotations. When the final price came out, he could just raise it and take it, which would save him so much trouble.

    Sure enough, two more people quoted from behind, raising the price to 1.9 million. The auctioneer shouted "1.9 million for the first time". Qin Shiou raised his hand and said loudly: "2 million!"

    Allen Brandon, who was sitting next to him, spread his hands and made a helpless gesture. He smiled at Qin Shiou and said: "Young man, calm down, calm down, don't be impulsive, this is 2 million, just buy a piece of rotten wood  ?¡±

    Qin Shiou turned around and said with a smile: "I can't help it, I'm rich and willful!"

    For an eighteenth-century ambergris sculpture that has not received official attention, two million Canadian dollars is already the maximum price. Even the wealthy businessman in the United Arab Emirates had nothing to say, shook his head and gave up bidding.

    Two million, Poseidon¡¯s food is obtained.

    Brandon was still shaking his head, but Qin Shiou thought it was nothing. He had a hunch that this thing would bring him a surprise.

    There was nothing in the auction items that interested Qin Shiou, but there was a calligraphy painting by Master Qi Baishi that moved him quite a bit, and he also had the consciousness to buy back a national treasure for the nation. Unfortunately, the price was too high, and the final transaction price turned out to be 15.5 million Canadian dollars. He  All the money in my body is not enough.

    The grand finale was the statue of "Perseus and Medusa". The auctioneer didn't need to say anything. As soon as this thing was taken out, the eyes of the collectors at the scene lit up.

    In fact, there were many people attending the auction this time. According to Little Black, there were more than 200 people. However, there were at least fifty people who had not moved during the previous auction of forty-seven works of art. There is no doubt that these people were there.  Waiting for this statue.

    ¡°¡­Our starting price is CAD 24 million, with an increase of CAD 1 million each time!¡±

    As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, a fat Russian rich man stood up immediately and shouted: "26 million!"

    "27 million!" An elegant middle-aged man immediately quoted, and Little Black introduced Qin Shiou in a low voice: "This man comes from the British Bergen family, which is an old aristocratic family that originated in the Renaissance."

    "28 million!" "He is a French collector, and his family owns a steel factory."

    "29 million!" "This man is from Italy. It is said that his family has business dealings with the Mafia."

    ¡­¡­

    Qin Shiou enjoyed watching these people bid. The higher the price, the more beneficial it was to him. If the auction had not stipulated that the owner could not raise the price, he would have wanted to raise the price to 35 million.

    As a result, coincidentally, at this moment, the rich man from the United Arab Emirates, who had been in the limelight before, waved his hand and said plainly: "35 million!"

    As soon as his price was announced, it seemed like someone lit a firecracker at the scene, and everyone immediately started exclaiming.

    Another Russian predator stood up and said: "36 million!"

    Qin Shiou tightly covered his crotch, he couldn't hold it anymore, he couldn't hold it any more, he was going to cum one by one!

    Now the rich people from Europe were angry. This bronze sculpture was one of the masterpieces of the European Renaissance. It was lost in the First World War. All Europeans with a slight sense of racial honor wanted to get it back. Now  This statue finally appeared, how could they do nothing?

    In the eyes of European wealthy people, Russian predators and Middle Eastern tycoons are simply bullying others. Where do they think this is?  They think this is their one-third of an acre of land. Can they still cover the sky with just one hand?

    For those works of art in front, the wealthy Europeans relied on their status and did not participate in the auction, which was considered as giving these people face. It seems that the wealthy Europeans do not buy it, so the wealthy Europeans will be rude.

    Representatives of several large European families gathered together and murmured for a while, and then sent a representative to quote: "40 million!"

    Hearing this price, several Russian predators looked at each other and shook their heads in unison. They wanted to win this symbolic statue, but obviously, in their hearts, this statue was not worth 40 million.

    The auctioneer also felt that this price was about the same. He was about to shout, but the Middle Eastern tycoon raised his hand again: "45 million!"

    While quoting, the Middle Eastern tycoons looked at the European tycoons coldly, the meaning is self-evident.??The world today is no longer the world dominated by Europe 80 years ago. If you want to steal things from our ***, then you have to shed some blood.

    The rich people in Europe were so angry that this was their national treasure and they had to take it back no matter what, so someone gritted his teeth and said: "46 million!"

    The wealthy man from the Middle East waved his hand, and this time he didn¡¯t need to speak in person. A man dressed as an assistant loudly said: ¡°50 million!¡±

    Hearing the price, Qin Shiou's eyes became bloodshot and red. His hand no longer covered his crotch. If he wanted to cum, then just cum. Now he covered his heart instead.

    Now the rich people in Europe couldn't stand it anymore. They gathered together and bit their ears for a while, and finally feebly increased the price: "52 million!"

    "55 million!" the assistant of the Middle Eastern tycoon proudly quoted.

    Little Black held Qin Shiou's hand hard and said, "Congratulations, Qin, you have entered the ranks of quasi-billionaires!"

    Qin Shiou pulled his hand back and continued to cover his heart. He was considering whether to ask the waiter to call the emergency number.

    Fortunately, the quotations finally stopped. The Middle Eastern tycoon used a price ladder of 5 million to give the European tycoons a fatal blow. After he quoted a price of 55 million, the European tycoons were finally defeated.

    The auctioneer called out three bids in a rhythmic manner, then banged the gavel and loudly said: "The bidding king is born, Afef Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Alena from the United Arab Emirates.  Mr. Hayan obtained the bronze statue of "Perseus and Medusa" at a high price of 55 million, let us congratulate him with applause!"

    ¡°Bah bang bang!¡± Qin Shiou¡¯s clapping voice was particularly loud.

    The wealthy Europeans were disheartened. They clapped their hands politely and then left one after another. They were probably not in the mood to attend the dinner afterwards.

    The copycat "Sunflower" is worth 540,000, Pinarjean's other paintings are worth 1 million, and Picasso's paintings are worth 2.5 million. Adding these 55 million, Qin Shiou's net worth suddenly approaches 60 million.

    ¡°However, he still has to pay personal income tax for art auctions. Canada¡¯s requirement is 22%, but Auerbach told him that he could reasonably avoid taxes and had already helped him think of a tax avoidance plan.

    So no matter what, this time he really became a rich man.

    The dinner was still held at this five-star hotel called the Four Seasons. Little Blake took Qin Shiou around and introduced him to many wealthy Canadians.

    After drinking a lot of champagne, when Qin Shiou came back from the toilet, he saw Little Black and Allen Brandon, who had been sitting next to him at the auction, standing together and talking and laughing, so he walked over.

    Little Black raised his glass. Qin Shiou knew that he was going to introduce someone to him again.

    Sure enough, this time, Little Black pointed the glass at Allen Brandon and smiled: "Qin, I think you already know Allen. Now please allow me to introduce you again. This is Bank of Montreal Newfoundland-Labra."  Alan Brandon, general manager of multiple provincial branches, you are from the same place and should communicate more."

    Being able to be the president of a bank and a high-ranking member of a separatist party, Allen Brandon¡¯s communication skills are naturally impeccable. When they met again, he flattered Qin Shiou in every aspect, and he used Mandarin!

    Qin Shiou knew what Brandon meant, and he said straightforwardly in Mandarin: "Don't worry, buddy, my money will be deposited in your bank. However, don't sell me any financial products for the time being, because I want to be quiet  ¡­¡±

    "Jingjing, who is Jingjing?" Brandon asked pretending to be confused.

    Qin Shiou laughed. He naturally knew this joke from **. It could be seen that Brandon had worked hard to get his more than 50 million.

    "You guys had a great time talking. Do you mind interrupting?" A gentle voice sounded. Qin Shiou turned around and saw the wealthy man from the Middle East who had bought "Perseus and Medusa" walking over with a smile.

    Qin Shiou naturally doesn't mind meeting a wealthy man from the Middle East. As for bankers like Brandon, he is even more thirsty for knowledge from such a friend.

    Before, Little Black wanted to entertain this Emirati tycoon named Afef Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, but when he arrived at the dinner, he stood in the corner of the hall coldly and arrogantly.  He drinks by himself, so that no matter how thick-skinned he is, he won't be embarrassed to bother others.

    None of them had any in-depth exchanges. They just got to know each other and said goodbye to each other. Qin Shiou didn't wait for the banquet to end. He directly chose to go back to the room first in the name of being too drunk.

    "Go, Qin, enjoy this night. I have prepared a gift for you. I hope you like it." Little Black blinked and smiled, as cunning as a little fox.

    Qin Shiou was indeed drunk, but he went back early because he wanted to study the 'Poseidon's Food' he had just obtained.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)He was very drunk, but he went back early because he wanted to study the 'Poseidon's food' he had just obtained.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
