Almighty in the city

Chapter 40: Amber comes out first

Do you want to know why Tan Zongming spent 5 million to photograph a stone turtle from the Ming Dynasty?

This is not nonsense!

Of course I do!

For a while, everyone's attention fell on Bai Yifan.

In the monitoring room at the backstage of the auction, Chen Qineng frowned and looked at the middle-aged man, who was completely indifferent.

As an expert on tomb robbers, his understanding of history is not worse than that of some historians; he is even better than some geologists in the exploration of geology.

For his own pair of "fire-eyed golden eyes", Old Wu has absolute confidence.

Any antiquities, as long as you take a look at them, you can immediately know that it is seven or eight, not to mention that the stone tortoise was obtained by himself.

"Boss Chen rest assured." Facing the skeptical gaze that Chen Qineng could see, Old Wu just smiled slightly, "How many large tombs and small tombs have been opened in me these years, and none of them have missed my hand. But the top three are absolutely fine."

Chen Qineng nodded, this is indeed a big truth.

In an instant, the heart he had just mentioned was suddenly let go.

However, the next moment, Bai Yifan’s voice came back from the speaker, but it made the heart he had just put down again to raise it——

"Trouble the auctioneer to prepare a stone cutter for gambling. I want to cut the stone on the spot." Bai Yifan said to several staff behind the auction platform.

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar.

"Open the stone? Is there a mystery hidden in this stone turtle?"

"Can't it? I saw that the stone tortoise is just an ordinary stone, not a rough stone at all. Could it be possible to find jade and jadeite inside?"

"Tan Zongming is a shrewd man, and he has never failed in his shots. Since he is willing to pay 5 million to shoot, there must be his reasons."

"Tan Zongming's shrewdness is in a shopping mall. Even if he misses at auctions like this, it is normal for him to miss. Anyway, none of us has missed at Baifu."

"Yes."

There was a lot of whispers at the scene, and several bosses who were familiar with Tan Zongming even came to ask him directly.

Tan Zongming was also full of doubts at this time, but he would not show all of this. No matter who came to ask, he smiled unpredictably, pointed to the stage and said: "Don't be impatient, you will see it later."

The more he said this, the more curious everyone became.

In fact, Tan Zongming was also very curious in his heart, not knowing what Bai Yifan had discovered from this stone turtle.

Baifu Auction House also regularly holds rough auctions, and naturally it has a cutting machine for gambling.

With the combined efforts of several staff members, the cutter was lifted up, along with the fountain pen used to draw the line when betting on rocks.

"Thank you, I don't need it." Bai Yifan rejected the pen handed by the staff and motioned to them to lift the stone turtle on the base of the cutting machine, "Just leave one third behind the head. I need to cut four knives."

The employees of these Baifu auction houses were speechless. They had been in the auction house for so many years, and even the most aggressive stone betting enthusiasts had seen them, but they had never seen Bai Yifan like this.

Just use the cutter to open a stone turtle that is not a rough stone at all, and the connection is not drawn—

Yes, Mr. Tan's five million, it is estimated that he is going to go straight to the water!

Just when this thought came to their minds, Bai Yifan started the cutter.

The sawtooth cut the stone and made a roar.

After a while, the head of the stone tortoise and the back third of the tortoise's body were cut off.

For a moment, everyone came up curiously, wanting to see if there is really a mystery in this stone turtle that everyone doesn't know.

It doesn’t matter if you look at it. Under a glance, there was a cry of exclamation in the whole hall.

"Ah! There is really something in this turtle belly!"

"Looks like a huge piece of amber?"

"How did this thing get into the stone?"

"This is really amazing! Who would have thought that there would be such a large piece of amber hidden in the stomach of this stone turtle!"

"But although this amber is big, it's not worth five million. If it's a big one, it's worth five million."

"Mr. Tan is still at a loss!"

Amidst the discussion, Bai Yifan still had a smile on his face, and the staff who had already directed the auction house to start the second cut.

The second knife goes to the end.

The third cut, the fourth cut edge.

After the four knives, the original stone tortoise was left with only a square body, and the four sides were all smooth amber.

In the monitoring room, although Chen Qineng and Lao Wu were also shocked, they were relieved when they saw a huge piece of amber.

"Although this amber is big, the sky is only one million. It's better not to cut it open." Chen Qineng laughed, "Tan Zongming is clever this time but was mistaken by cleverness."

"Obviously someone hollowed out the stone tortoise's belly, poured pine resin in, and filled in the gap with stone. The pine resin itself has a strong stickiness. This repair can be described as seamless. In addition, from the Ming Dynasty to the present, the stone has been affected. The wind and rain broke naturally, and even I didn't hide it from me." Old Wu shook his head again and again, feeling a little helpless for his "eye punch"——

This Deguang Heavenly Master is really boring!

There was also a sigh at the scene, the mysterious secret hidden in the belly of the stone turtle, this should have been a good thing to pick up, but who would have thought it was just a large piece of amber!

"Old Tan, I missed it." A boss who had a good relationship with Tan Zongming patted him on the shoulder.

"Faulted?" Tan Zongming looked at the auction stage, and Bai Yifan, who was still smiling lightly, raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, "That's not necessarily true."
