The tea set is the best purple sand pot from Longguo, and the tea is also from the best Longjing teapot from Longguo.

"This is tea from the early spring of this year. It was specially brought over from Longguo by someone."

Tang Lao Er explained with a smile.

Lin Yi smiled slightly, raised his teacup and took a sip without saying much.

"good."

Lin Yi gave an evaluation. Although Tang Lao Er was not very good at getting along, he was quite good in terms of taste.

Not to mention the taste of this superb Longjing tea set, the market value of this purple sand tea set alone is about [-] US dollars.

After receiving Lin Yi's compliment, Tang's second child was elated, and then he didn't dare to waste any more time, and hurriedly left the room to investigate the affairs of that group of people.

Lin Yi checked the progress of the incense collection while tasting tea alone.

"9600/100000."

One day passed, and the incense was only collected less than [-], which was still far from the goal of [-].

Continuing at this speed, the goal of collecting [-] will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

After sighing inwardly, Lin Yi turned his eyes back to the photos on the tea table.

He noticed that many of the antiques in the photos seemed to have just been dug out of the grave.

"Could that group be grave robbers?"

Lin Yi was a little surprised, this kind of thing is not impossible.

The control system of the Dragon Kingdom is strict, and many tomb robbers in the Dragon Kingdom often go to the American continent to sell the stolen goods after digging up treasures.

At this time, an object on one of the photos attracted Lin Yi's attention.

It was a jade seal, the standard was similar to that of the ancient royal family, the whole body was dark green, and a nine-headed lion was carved on the top of the jade seal.

The appearance of the nine-headed lion attracted Lin Yi's interest. In the legend of the Dragon Kingdom, the nine-headed lion is not an ordinary beast. It not only has the ability to connect Yin and Yang, but also can open the door to the Nine Nether Hell!

……

Lin Yi looked at Yuxi more and more fascinated, and unconsciously frowned.

Regardless of whether the myths and legends are true or not, Lin Yi is quite puzzled by the shape of the nine-headed lion jade seal alone.

While contemplating, Tang Laoer came back from the outside, opened the entrance, and saw Lin Yi with a puzzled expression.

"Brother, what are you looking at?"

As Tang Lao Er spoke, he stepped forward and found that Lin Yi's eyes were focused on the photo of the Nine-Headed Lion Yuxi.

"Nine-headed lion jade seal?"

"Brother, you really have vision!"

After the two sentences followed, Tang Lao Er's expression changed from doubt to surprise in an instant.

"This thing has traces in the history of the Dragon Kingdom. It is said that it came from Xia Jie, the last emperor of the Xia Dynasty."

"When the Yin and Shang dynasties raised their troops and defeated the Xia Dynasty's millions of soldiers, when the dynasty was in danger, Xia Jie ordered people to carve this nine-headed lion jade seal. "

"..."

Tang Lao Er spoke with great interest, as if he was watching from the side when Xia Wangjie carved this jade seal.

However, after a few words, Tang Lao Er suddenly changed the topic.

"However, in the final analysis, this is just a record circulated in unofficial history. If the Nine-Headed Lion Yuxi really had the power in the legend, Xia Jie would not end up destroying the country."

Although Lin Yi's eyes fell on the jade seal, the words Tang Laoer said entered his heart word by word.

"Have you heard the news?"

Lin Yi didn't continue what Tang Lao Er said, but asked about his going out to find out news.

"Understood, at six o'clock tonight, at dusk, there will be an internal auction in Dingyuan Building. Only those who are invited are eligible to participate."

Tang Lao Er said in a straightforward manner.

"invite?"

Lin Yi frowned, he was unfamiliar with Chinatown, where would he accept the invitation.

Just when Lin Yi was thinking about whether to use other means to enter the auction, Tang Lao Er suddenly took out two black invitation cards from his arms.

"Well done."

Lin Yi nodded with a strange expression, and said approvingly.

"Thank you for your compliment, brother."

Tang Laoer smiled, and carefully put away the invitation.

Having been in Chinatown for so many years, two invitations are not too difficult for him.

Lin Yi also made up his mind that he would go to the Dingyuan Pavilion in the evening to take pictures of the Taoist artifact and the nine-headed lion jade seal, and it would be best to meet those weird guys for a while.

……

Time passed by every minute and every second, and soon it was getting late, and it was six o'clock in the evening.

Lin Yi and Tang Lao Er came to Dingyuan Pavilion on time. This was Lin Yi's first time here. At a glance, Dingyuan Pavilion had a unique position in Chinatown.

A huge intersection is the center of the entire Chinatown, Dingyuan Pavilion is located in an unbiased position, just in the center of the intersection.

Chapter 60 Bidding

Lin Yi learned from Mr. Tang that this Dingyuan Pavilion has existed for hundreds of years. Since the construction of this Chinatown, Dingyuan Pavilion has been enduring for a long time.

And the boss of Dingyuan Pavilion is also quite mysterious. Although this building has a history of hundreds of years, outsiders don't know anything about the identity of the boss.

Although Tang Laoer claimed to be doing well on this ground, he had never seen the boss of Dingyuan Pavilion himself.

Walking to the gate of Dingyuan Pavilion, the servant in Tang suit saw that Lin Yi and the two had taken out the invitation card, and brought them into the building respectfully.

As soon as Lin Yi entered the building, he felt a sense of astonishment in his heart. The interior architectural style of Dingyuan Pavilion was exactly the same as that of the Tang Dynasty.

The most important thing is that every pillar in the Dingyuan Pavilion is made of high-quality golden nanmu. There are hundreds of golden nanmu in the whole building, and its value opened Lin Yi's eyes!

The servant didn't say anything along the way, and directly brought the two of them to the door on the top floor of Dingyuan Pavilion.

There were two young servants waiting at the door, and they opened the door respectfully. After Lin Yi and the two entered, the young servants turned back.

Inside, there is an airtight auction room of two to three hundred square meters, in the shape of a circular conference room, with dozens of chairs in a circle, in a high order.

Obviously, this is not the first time Tang Lao Er has come here, and he took Lin Yi to the two seats at the back and took a seat.

The style of the chair is similar to that of a grand master's chair, with armrests and tea tables on both sides, and the back can be leaned on. The material is all high-quality golden nanmu.

Obviously, Lin Yi and Tang Lao Er were the first to come.

"In another 10 minutes, everyone will arrive, and those who come later will automatically lose their qualifications for bidding."

Tang Laoer explained to Lin Yi.

Sure enough, within the next 10 minutes, all the invited guests entered the auction room one after another.

There were about 30 people, all dressed in expensive clothes, including people from the Dragon Kingdom, whites and blacks.

When he saw one of the figures, Lin Yi suddenly showed a strange look on his face

Just because that person was none other than Harris, the leader of the Razor Party.

Harris has a big back, wearing sunglasses, smoking a cigar, wearing a black suit, quite conspicuous in the crowd.

"This guy...how did he come here?"

Lin Yi thought to himself, he didn't expect to see this guy here.

However, Harris didn't seem to notice Lin Yi's existence, and sat directly in a front seat.

"Brother, don't think about that guy. That guy is the biggest gang leader in New York today. Once you provoke him, the consequences will be very difficult."

Tang Laoer noticed Lin Yi's gaze, and he also recognized Harris's identity, and then reminded him kindly.

Lin Yi shook his head strangely, but did not speak.

Although Tang Laoer was the first Longguo person he met when he came to New York, and he had a good relationship with him, the relationship between the Razor Party and him was already secret, and it was normal for others not to know about it.

Moreover, since Lin Yi helped Harris dominate the underground world, although he has become a little famous, he still said that it is well-known in New York, and it is normal for people in many fields not to know what he is doing.

After all the guests were seated, a Long Country woman in a red cheongsam slowly walked out from another passageway of the auction house.

The woman looks about 30 years old, with a melon-shaped face, big eyes, a graceful figure, and bright lipstick on her lips, which is very coquettish.

Behind the woman, followed by eight servants, each holding a tray in his hand.

The trays are long and short, and of different sizes, all of which are covered with a layer of red cloth, and under the red cloth are protrusions of various shapes.

The woman walked to the auction stage, and the eight servants stood in a row behind her.

"Everyone has come from afar, the little girl is exquisite and polite."

The cheongsam woman smiled and bowed to the guests.

None of the guests under the stage made a sound, and they all kept quiet.

Such a situation was beyond Lin Yi's expectation, he thought the scene would be quite lively.

But Lin Yi thought about it, and then he figured it out. The characters who can appear here are not simple characters.

These people all came with a strong purpose, so naturally they wouldn't make a fuss because of a woman.

……

The layout and furnishings in the auction house looked quite simple.

However, it is precisely this solemn environment that reflects the extraordinaryness of this Dingyuan Pavilion.

"The following is the first auction item tonight, a piece of Ru porcelain from the Song Dynasty in the Dragon Kingdom. The starting price is 2000 million, and each increase must not be less than 500 million."

Without too many opening remarks, Linglong started the auction directly after a brief self-introduction.

As Linglong's voice fell, a servant behind her stepped forward and placed the tray in his hand on a desk in front of the auction stage.

The moment the servant lifted up the red cloth, an extremely exquisite Ru porcelain official kiln of the Song Dynasty was revealed, a small green-glazed tripod with celestial beast ears and three legs.

The small tripod is bright and bright in color, about three inches in length, width and height. From the appearance alone, it is a rare treasure of Ru Kiln.

As soon as this object came out, among the thirty guests, someone whispered just now.

"For more than 100 years, the items auctioned by Dingyuan Pavilion are all treasures without exception, and there have not been any fakes, so the reputation is guaranteed and no one will question it."

Tang Lao Er said in Lin Yi's ear at the right time.

Lin Yi already knew it well, but the starting price of the first piece of Ru porcelain alone had already reached 2000 million, which really made Lin Yi sweat secretly.

"3000."

Someone immediately uttered a voice and shouted the first bidding price.

"Thirty-five million."

Then someone raised the price tag.

"4000."

"5000."

"..."

"8000 million!"

During a short but exciting round of bidding, someone called out a high price of 8000 million yuan, and the venue fell silent instantly.

"8000 million for the first time."

"8000 million for the second time."

"8000 million for the third time."
