"Bang!"

With Claude banging the gavel one last time, the home auction is finally over.

At this time, it was about four-thirty in the afternoon.

As soon as the auction ended, Xiao Ran got up and left the venue, striding towards the gate of the mansion.

Seeing his actions, everyone was stunned.

"I'll go! This bastard won't be bidding maliciously, trying to evade settlement, right?

Leon said in surprise, but his eyes were full of excitement.

There are many people who hold the same view.

Everyone understood that if Xiao Ran was bidding maliciously, then he would be in big trouble!

His previous act of throwing a lot of money and photographing antique artifacts and works of art was deliberate troublemaking.

In this case, he must bear the corresponding legal responsibility and will be notorious.

From now on, all auction houses in the United States will blacklist him, and don't want to mess around in this industry again.

Looking at his departing back, the faces of the auction house turned black.

Just as they were about to let the security personnel block it, Elaine suddenly stood up and said loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, Sean is not trying to evade settlement, but to pick up his own personal

lawyer" "Sean took more things, in order to ensure interests, so a private lawyer is needed

" "And then with the witness and assistance of the lawyer, complete the subsequent settlement delivery and other matters."

Hearing this, the faces of everyone in the auction house suddenly turned cloudy.

The rest of the guys with bad intentions turned ugly.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ran had arrived at the gate of the mansion.

Before he went out the door, he saw David, standing on the side of the road outside the door.

David was also surrounded by two tall white men, apparently bodyguards.

Coming closer, he immediately said:

"David, the auction has just ended, it's time to settle next, I need your on-site witness and assistance

" "No problem, Sean, this is my job, I will definitely ensure that your interests are not infringed"

David nodded and replied.

Next, he introduced the two bodyguards.

"Sean, this is Anthony, this is Sam, both are special forces retired from the Delta Special Forces, and are currently professional bodyguards

" "Their professionalism is very high, they will protect your personal safety, you can rest assured"

With his introduction, Xiao Ran stepped forward and touched elbows with the two bodyguards one by one, and got to know each other.

"I'm Sean, the daimyo of the Long Known Delta, nice

to meet you" "Good afternoon, Sean, we're also glad to meet you, and we're more than happy to provide you with security services to keep you safe"

Anthony said politely, and Sam nodded.

While saying hello, Xiao Ran quickly glanced at the two guys.

On their shoulders, he found tattoos peculiar to Delta Special Forces.

It can be determined that David did not lie, and casually pulled two bodyguards over, saying that it was a retired special forces soldier in Delta.

In addition to the Delta Special Forces signature tattoo, these two guys have other tattoos and markings on them.

Xiao Ran quickly wrote down these marks, which may be useful in the future.

In addition, they each had two pistols on them.

As for equipment such as automatic rifles and body armor, it was placed on the black Chevrolet Saaban full-size SUV on the side of the road.

After a few small talks, Xiao Ran took David into this top mansion and asked Anthony to go back to the car and wait.

When they complete all the formalities and drive out, they just need to drive to follow the protection.

Next, wherever they go, their task is to get themselves safely.

And make sure everything you photograph is safe and not snatched away.

Just when he returned to the auction site with David, the live broadcast room was as lively as a pot.

"I'll go! This is going to be a big deal! Xiao Ran actually hired two retired bodyguards from Delta, these two guys looked really fierce

" "Everyone said that there will really be guys who don't open their eyes, trying to rob Xiao Ran halfway?"

"If something like that really happens, there will be a good show to watch, maybe there will really be an exciting street shootout"

Listening to these unsuspecting discussions, Xiao Ran could only shake his head speechlessly.

As they spoke, they had returned to the auction site.

Seeing him return, the guys in the auction house breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, Xiao Ran took David to Elaine and introduced them to each other.

Like everyone else, David was amazed by Elaine's beauty.

Subsequently, the auction was closed.

Together, they walked into the top mansion and began the subsequent settlement and delivery.

......

The subsequent settlement and delivery went very smoothly.

With David's witness and assistance, Xiao Ran quickly completed the settlement and delivery procedures in more than half an hour.

He transferred all the auction money to the auction house without a penny, and received all the auction items, as well as the corresponding documents and contracts.

Seeing him pay so quickly, the rest of the buyers on the scene were secretly shocked.

At this point, they really determined Xiao Ran's strength, and also recognized his identity as a predator.

Also shocked by it is David.

He didn't expect Xiao Ran to actually photograph so many valuable antique relics and artworks, and scatter one or two million US dollars at one time.

You know, this is a home auction, not a top-tier auction.

People who throw millions of dollars at home auctions are rare and rare.

And, of course, the guys in the live room.

Those guys were all amazed by Xiao Ran's strong strength, and a group of beautiful women kept sending barrages, joking and begging for support.

As for exhaustion, for those night owls, there is simply no such thing!

As soon as Xiao Ran paid the auction money and got the antique cultural relics and artworks that were auctioned, someone found him.

This is none other than the old lady who fought with him to the end before.

The old lady brought her personal lawyer and art dealer and went straight to Xiao Ran.

Before approaching, the old lady first introduced herself.

"Good afternoon, Sean, I'm Mary, I live nearby, it's nice to

meet you" "Good afternoon, Mary, I'm also glad to meet you"

Xiao Ran nodded politely and said, also a little curious.

He wondered why this old lady had come to him, did she ask for something?

Also curious about why this old lady took a huge risk to participate in this family auction during such a special period?

As we all know, the current environment is very dangerous for all elderly people.

The next moment, these questions were answered.

After introducing each other, Mary suddenly said with emotion:

"The original owners of this house, Joshua and his wife, are my old friends, we have known each other for almost sixty years

" "We are very close to each other, I am very familiar with everything here, and I have some feelings"

Xiao Ran suddenly understood why this old lady appeared here.

He nodded slightly, but did not interrupt the other and continued to listen.

"But I never thought that one day everything here would be auctioned, so I came here and wanted to shoot something commemorative

" "That cubist oil painting is a work of art that Joshua loves very much, he often sits in front of that oil painting and admires it carefully, sitting for half a day

" "Now I have some regrets, I should not have withdrawn from the bidding just now, that is against my heart, for me, that oil painting has a very special meaning"

I want to ask, Sean, if I want to buy that cubist painting from you, I wonder if it is okay? You make an offer

" "Ah!"

Xiao Ran exclaimed, and couldn't help but be stunned.

Everyone else was just the same, surprised.

The top art dealer's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, not to mention how ugly his expression was.

"Brush!"

Everyone turned to look at Xiao Ran, expecting his decision.

Xiao Ran fell into thought and did not respond immediately.

After pondering for a moment, he looked up at Mary.

"Mary, considering your friendship with Joshua's family, I also want to be an adult beauty and transfer

this oil painting to you" "However, this oil painting now belongs to me, and I am very sure that it is a top-quality work of art of great value

" "It is definitely worth more than 200,000 dollars, and I am afraid that you will not be able to accept my offer, so forget it"

There was no surprise, and everyone was taken aback.

"This is a top work of art! How can it be?

The art dealer exclaimed.

The rest of the people were also stunned, their eyes full of incredulity.

Especially those guys in the auction house were a little alarmed.

If it was really a top-notch piece of art, they didn't identify it and it sold for $200,000.

You can imagine how much trouble they will face next.

Reputational damage is one thing, and if the appraisal is really done by them, nine times out of ten it will be sued by the cargo owner.

Compared to others, Mary was much calmer.

She was just stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xiao Ran and asked

, "Sean, I'd love to hear how much you bid for this cubist oil painting?"

"I'm also wondering what you think of this cubist painting, which master artist is this?"

Xiao Ran hesitated and did not respond immediately.

He scanned the situation at the scene and paused for a moment before giving a shocking answer.

"Mary, I'm asking $18 million for this cubist painting, and the offer is non-negotiable

" "What? $18 million!

"It's ninety times more in the blink of an eye, it's crazy!"

The scene exploded directly, and the same was true in the live broadcast room.
