After a heated discussion, the audience finally calmed down.
After the host introduced the bidding rules, the formal bidding session began.
"The auction starts at 500 million yuan, all distinguished guests, please bid according to the rules."

"550."

"600."

"700."

The intensity of this bidding far exceeds all previous auctions.
Within a few minutes, the price of this ice-green rough stone had reached 800 million, and the upward trend only continued to increase.
Zhao Yue's jaw almost fell to the ground.
"I am mother.
Is this a scene that I and other poor people can watch?"

Liu Wei hastily pushed Zhao Yue lightly, and made a silent gesture.
Fang Ning seemed to relax completely after thinking about Lu Lingyou's abnormal behavior.
She handed Zhao Yue the notebook that had been recording the price and auction information in her hand, and she sat quietly in the chair just like Lu Lingyou and looked ahead.
Liu Wei took charge of the recording work alone and became increasingly nervous.
The speed recorded by my subordinates seemed to be doubled, and the bean-sized beads of sweat on the head were crackling like beads with a broken thread.
Zhao Yue took out a tissue and wiped his sweat while shaking his head, thinking about this dead-headed idea, but he still hasn't found the point.
"1000."

Just as Liu Wei bowed his head and was writing vigorously, the host dropped the hammer again, and the price reached the highest peak so far in this auction.
1000.
Zhao Yue felt that her throat was as dry as if she had swallowed two catties of sandpaper, so she hurriedly turned her head to look at the two gentlemen next to her who were calm and composed.
Fang Ning hooked the corners of his lips, tilted his head slightly and asked in a low voice.
"How much money have you prepared?"

Lu Lingyou shrugged.
"Not enough shots."

Fang Ning was not surprised, nodded slowly and smiled again.
"Too.
None of this matters anymore.
However, judging from the current situation, firewood is not enough.
We've got to spice up the game."

Just when Zhao Yue and Liu Wei couldn't figure out what Fang Ning was going to do, she slowly raised the price tag in her hand and calmly called out a set of numbers.
"1100."

Everyone present turned their heads and looked over here.
Bidder No. 1000, who had just bid 03, also immediately cast a questioning look.
Zhao Yue grabbed Fang Ning's other wrist.
"Fang Ning."

Fang Ning patted the back of Zhao Yue's hand, smiled and looked forward to the young man holding the number plate 03.
The man looked him up and down and raised his sign again.
"1200."

The audience was instantly quiet, and a needle could be heard.
No one continued the discussion, and everyone stared at the two final competitors with excited and gossipy eyes.
Fang Ning still maintained a professional smile.
"1300."

The ballpoint pen that Liu Wei clenched tightly fell to the ground with a clatter.
The host smiled and looked towards Fang Ning.
"043 The lady gave the historical new price again.
043, 1300 million times."

The man with the number plate 03 lowered his head and thought about something, as if hesitating.
There is also a wireless headset hanging by his ear, and the indicator light is flashing.
"1300 twice."

Everyone around is nodding, the price of 1300 should be regarded as the limit of this rough stone, and it should stop here.
They are also fortunate to witness the ceiling of rough jade auctions in recent years.
Everyone cast envious glances at Fang Ning, preparing to congratulate the bidder who gained the most.
But just as the host raised the gavel in his hand and was about to strike the last sound, the man with number 03 suddenly raised his number plate.
"1500."

A middle-aged man sitting in front of Fang Ning and the others gasped for a moment, turned around and discussed in a low voice with the people walking next to him without concealing it.
“1500 is a bit high, I should stop.
Although this piece of ice green has a price and no market, but if it goes on like this, if something goes wrong after cutting the material, it will lose all money.
It's so irrational."

Man No. 03 on the other side took a long breath, straightened his tie with great satisfaction, and sat back firmly.
Before sitting down, he turned his head and cast an inexplicable look at Fang Ning.
Once again, everyone's eyes were focused on the only competitor, Fang Ning, as if they were watching a football match.
Zhao Yue held Fang Ning's hand tightly, not daring to breathe.
Fang Ning suddenly smiled, and looked down at the confident man in front of him, confirming his suspicion once again.
She slowly raised the number plate, stared into the man's eyes and said calmly.
"1600."

The scene exploded again, everyone thought this woman was crazy.
This is not the time to gamble with real money.
Zhao Yue was also confused, but then she suddenly figured it out.
The last time Fang Ning bid for that piece of opal, she thought it was because this auction would be tricky. No matter how much they bid, after finding the key evidence, the auction held by illegal means will be cancelled. .
So no matter how they bid, there will be no loss.
But it was only then that she reacted.
There are legal affairs and notarization on site, and everything follows the formal process.
Even if there are secret operations behind these auctions, it is undeniable that the surface auction will be reasonable and legal.
That is to say, most of the bidders here are still running for the real auction, and what the bidders bid is the legal equivalent of real money.
This is why some auction prices are within a reasonable range, while others are far beyond the market price boundary.
The original point of distinction is here.
Real bidders will only be interested in the value of the lot. Once the bidding price exceeds the actual value of the lot, normal people will stop.
No normal person will use the money in his pocket to trade at a loss.
But bidders with other goals are different.
When the bidding price exceeds the actual value of the lot, the premium range beyond the market price is the main battlefield for their real illegal bidding.
Those bidders who offer far more than the market value are the key to the illegal transactions behind this.
Zhao Yue trembled twice, then turned to look at Fang Ning's smiling side face.
Judging from everyone's reaction just now, when the bid reaches 1300, it should be the limit cut-off point for the price of this rough stone.
If the bidder with number 03 wants to gamble and win this stone, the second price increase is also reasonable.
But Fang Ning followed the bid so closely. If the man stopped following, wouldn't Fang Ning really have to spend more than 1000 million to buy a piece of rubbish?
Surely this is it.
It's over, Zhao Yue thought.
With the little money they have prepared, even the handling fee may not be enough.
The moment she thought about it scribbled, the man on the opposite side raised the auction again, and gave the number that exploded again.
"1800."

Fang Ning has been staring at the cold gaze cast by the man in front of him, but the corners of his mouth have been raised all the time, as indifferent as if he was buying a Chinese cabbage.
She slowly raised the sign in her hand again, shocking the audience.
"2000."

The venue once again erupted into eardrum-piercing discussions.
Zhao Yue was so nervous that she didn't know how to breathe.
This is too exciting, it is tantamount to gambling with their weak guesses and judgments.
If Wang Zhao and the others do not find key evidence before the auction ends, they cannot detain all of them.
Then things exploded.
The hostages could not be found, the trading methods of the dark web could not be broken, and even the money could not be paid.
A lot of people have been tossing for several days, but nothing has been achieved.
Not to mention them, even their boss and Fang Ju may have to bear a big penalty for misjudgment.
She looked at Lu Lingyou who was silent and still watching the excitement.
This guy is too calm.
Lu Lingyou seemed to have sensed the warm gaze here, and turned his head to give Zhao Yue a white look.
"Stop shaking, the chairs are shaking too."

Man No. 03 finally lost his composure, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his suit sleeve, and slowly sat back.
Lu Lingyou and Fang Ning looked at each other with a smile, confirming their suspicions.
It seems that this person is just a chess piece who stands in the open and listens to instructions.
The indicator light of the wireless headset in Man No. 03's left ear went out, and there was a long silence.
But he seemed to be sending a message to someone.
"2000 once."

The whole place was quiet.
"2000 million times."

Still no one said anything.
"2000 million three times.
make a deal."

The host banged the gavel hard for the last time and looked at Fang Ning as if he were a guest.
"Congratulations to the lady 043."

Just when the host made the final decision, and Zhao Yue and Liu Wei were both dumbfounded, Lu Lingyou received a message from Wang Zhao on his mobile phone.
"Find something, wait for my message." (End of this chapter)
