C17 Curator Qu's Difficulty
"Thirty thousand!" Yang Bo looked in the direction of Vice Curator Qu.
"Forty thousand!" Vice Curator Qu was all smiles, but when he raised the price, he was merciless.
Yang Bo was not in a hurry to respond. He guessed at the other party's intentions. Thirty thousand was already the market price of this Jade Dancer, but since Vice Curator Qu was so desperate to raise the price, could it be that he had seen something?
This was also true. If he could see it, others would also be able to see it. Yang Bo hesitated for a moment, "Forty-five thousand!"
"Forty-eight thousand!" Vice Curator Qu had been raising the price all this time, as if he was unwilling to give up.
Yang Bo frowned, "Fifty thousand!"
"Since young man likes this Jade Dancer so much, I'll give it to you!"
Vice Curator Qu suddenly stopped raising the price, catching Yang Bo off guard. However, he suddenly remembered that when he sold the Fish Basket Bottle, wasn't it fifty thousand? Vice Curator Qu had also said these words to teach him a lesson!
However, Vice Curator Qu's methods were a little too ruthless!
Yang Bo bought the Jade Dancer for fifty thousand, and no one reacted much. The next auction continued.
After Yang Bo obtained the Jade Dancer, he felt at ease with it in his hand. He did not even pay attention to the items at the front desk. He only thought that after he sold this Jade Dancer, he would definitely go home. His father's illness could not be delayed any longer, and even if he did not have eight hundred and fifty thousand, he could still go to the hospital for an early checkup. This way, he would have more time to prepare for the medical expenses!
While Yang Bo was distracted, the auction had already come to an end. He did not expect that Vice Curator Qu had not bought anything from the beginning to the end, which made him very disappointed.
The last item was bought by a low-profile old man, so the auction ended.
Mei Laosan stood in front of the stage and clapped his hands to attract the attention of the crowd, "This auction will end now. I thank everyone for coming. As for the next time, it will still be the same old rules. If there are any new friends who want to know more, I'm afraid that next time, they will have to show their strength!"
When Mei Laosan spoke, he did not clearly look towards which side, but everyone knew that this last sentence was for Yang Bo to hear.
Yang Bo did not speak. He did not have any clear plans for the future, and he even faintly wanted to draw a clear line between them. After all, the existence of these secret transactions was illegal, and it was precisely because of the existence of these secret transactions that it further increased the arrogance of the grave robbers!
Yang Bo negotiated with the other party and finally paid with his card. This was how he obtained the Jade Dancer of the Han Dynasty. He was overjoyed, but he did not dare to show it, for fear that others would see it.
When Yang Bo took the Jade Dancer and was about to leave, he heard the bald tattooed muscular man asking, "Mr. Yang, are you coming next time?"
Yang Bo hesitated. Although he was unwilling to come again, he was not sure if he could help his father raise enough medical expenses. After all, this was also an opportunity. This time, it was enough. If it was the next time, he definitely would not come again!
He finally convinced himself. Yang Bo nodded at the other party, "I'll come again next time."
"Alright, Mr. Yang, please leave me your contact information. I'll let you know when the time comes." The burly man looked rough, but he was very polite when dealing with people!
He was thinking that he should go to Jade Dancer's place in the morning and tell Grandet Guo that he would definitely go home. He would then return with the money and his father would not go to the hospital. It would be better for him to forcefully send his father to the hospital!
Since he had sold Jade Dancer, he should have collected most of the medical expenses!
Yang Bo stepped out of the courtyard and bumped into Young Master Luo and his appraiser. The two of them stood outside the door as if they were waiting for someone.
Yang Bo still did not know Young Master Luo's identity, but he still nodded at the other party and turned to leave.
Suddenly, he heard Young Master Luo say, "Little brother Yang, please wait!"
Yang Bo stopped and looked at the other party. He was puzzled, not knowing what the other party was trying to do.
Young Master Luo smiled, "Master Feng has something to ask Little Brother Yang."
Yang Bo followed Young Master Luo's direction and saw the old appraiser with a kind smile on his face. "Little brother, you don't have to be nervous. I just want to know what the origin of that piece of Han Dynasty Jade Dancer is, and why you are so determined to get it!"
Yang Bo paused for a moment, "Master Feng also saw this piece of Jade Dancer at that time. What you see is what it is!"
Vice Curator Qu greeted the few people he knew and walked out. Just as he heard the two's final conversation, he chuckled and said, "Brother Feng, there's no need to ask so much. If the others don't know the details, they would probably be deceived by this brat. I am very clear that Yang Bo is a worker of the Gu De House!"
"The Gu De House is a very small antique shop near the Heavenly Palace. He has only been a worker there for two years. This kind of person, with just a bit of eloquence, actually managed to sneak into this place!"
Vice Curator Qu glanced at Yang Bo with a hint of disdain.
Yang Bo actually nodded, "I am a worker of the antique shop. There is nothing to dispute about this. Furthermore, I have never introduced myself in any other way!"
Vice Curator Qu laughed coldly, "You admit it so easily after being exposed by me. However, this person has a rotten morality and a low character. Back then, he stood behind me and snatched away a relic that I had already taken a fancy to. His character is truly unruly!"
Vice Curator Qu said these words to tell Young Master Luo that the two of them were still alive. Young Master Luo did not have much of a reaction when he heard this. Instead, Master Feng frowned, "Little brother, what do you mean?"
Yang Bo looked at the other party and did not explain. Instead, he asked, "I wonder what Master Feng called this brat for? If it's just asking about these private matters, I'm afraid I can't answer!"
Master Feng pointed at the Jade Dancer in his hand again, "I just want to know the situation of this Jade Dancer!"
Vice Curator Qu stood at the side and laughed, "Brother Feng, it's not like we have known each other for a year and a half. How can you not trust my character? This brat only had dog-shit luck today. He probably wanted to get this Jade Dancer for free, but he didn't expect that the value of the Jade Dancer in the Han Dynasty was only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. This 50,000 yuan is really a huge loss!"
Yang Bo stood at the side and glanced at Vice Curator Qu, but his heart was filled with disdain. He did not expect that the other party would be so sinister and petty!
Master Feng did not have a good impression of Yang Bo. When he heard Vice Curator Qu's exaggerated tone, he was also half-confident and half-doubting. Because Yang Bo had always been calm and steady, it was inconsistent with Vice Curator Qu's words!
Young Master Luo was impatient in his heart, "Master Feng, don't mind so much. We only want to know about the Jade Dancer today!"
