Wang Lijun's eyes lit up when he heard this. Meng Yan indeed knew some clues.
"Brother Meng, please tell us that with such a huge list, it is very likely that someone is acting as a second-hand dealer in identification information between the owner of the original stone and our Jade Treasure Hall, in order to gain fame and reputation."
"Many similar incidents have occurred in our jade industry in the past, and some serious incidents were eventually exposed, causing serious damage to the reputation of our entire jade industry."
"After we investigate clearly, we will definitely not tolerate this type of people and will definitely punish them severely." Wang Lijun said in a tone that left no room for doubt.
Meng Yan was overjoyed. Almost all the top experts in treasure appraisal in Lake City worked in Yubao Hall. If Boss Zhang went to do appraisals, considering that his reputation would ensure reliability, Yubao Hall would definitely be the first choice.
I actually got some clues by asking so casually.
"Manager Wang, your current thoughts are still at the stage of speculation. You will send me a copy of your running account later. If nothing happens, I will get substantial evidence before the end of the auction." Meng Yan said.
"No problem, Brother Meng, if he is really an information dealer who dares to use our Yubao Hall, we will definitely give him an unforgettable memory." Wang Lijun said while sending a copy of the document to Meng Yan.
After Wang Lijun left, Meng Yan returned to the auction venue soon.
As soon as he entered the venue, Meng Yan felt a strange atmosphere.
Why are most of the people in the auction venue staring directly at me? As if they have been waiting for Meng Yan to come back?
Meng Yan subconsciously tightened the mask and sunglasses on her mouth, and lowered the hat on her head a little further.
"It's him! Look, the master wearing the mask is back!" A sharp-eyed young man in the audience suddenly stood up, pointed at Meng Yan at the entrance and shouted.
"Oh! The master is back! Make way for the master! Quickly!"
A person close to Meng Yan suddenly rushed up and tried to grab Meng Yan's hand. Meng Yan took a step back to avoid it.
"Master! Just now, I was ignorant and followed these villains to talk about you. Don't take it to heart!"
"Master, secretly tell me which piece of material I should take a picture of later, and I will help you take the picture! If you don't let me spend a penny, how about I share it 50-50 with you afterwards?"
"Go away! The master is only 50%, and he is not sincere!" A fat man came forward and pushed the man aside: "Master, tell me! Tell me the rough stones that I should shoot soon! I will tell you the profits later.
Divide!”
Meng Yan was a little confused. When did he suddenly become a master?
In their eyes, shouldn't I be just a passerby wearing a mask and sunglasses whose features can't be seen?
"I'm not a master, I don't know what you are talking about." Meng Yan retorted.
"I don't know what rough stone I should take pictures of. Did you get the wrong person?"
"How is that possible! Master, stop pretending!" the fat man blurted out and retorted.
"Master's ability has been witnessed by all of us here just now! There's no point in pretending anymore!"
"Just now? Didn't I just go out and make a phone call? Didn't I just chat with Wang Lijun for a few words?"
"These things are nothing earth-shattering, right? What on earth are these people talking about?"
Meng Yan looked around the auction venue in confusion. There were at least hundreds of pairs of eyes looking at him with bright eyes. Most of the emotions inside were curiosity, excitement, and greed.
Sensing a hint of danger, Meng Yan subconsciously raised his feet and wanted to take a step back, but as soon as he raised his knees, the fat man grabbed his arm and pulled him forward. With his body in this way, he still took two steps forward.
"Master! Stop pretending to be confused. If you can pretend, can you still deceive us with the rough stone you chose?" The fat man pulled Meng Yan by the shoulders and walked to the middle of the auction stage, pointing to the ranking list on the screen.
Said to Meng Yan.
"Master! See for yourself, the No. 41 rough stone you just raised a sign to buy! What's in it? What's number one on the list?!"
Meng Yan followed the fat man's fat arms and looked at the huge screen behind the auction table, and saw the No. 41 rough stone that he had just put up for auction.
"Ice species, eight million, the jadeite value is the highest in this auction..." Meng Yan thought silently in his heart, and a strong sense of crisis emerged in his heart involuntarily.
"Didn't Jia Longtang just rank companies and individuals? Why are rough stones also ranked?"
"Then if someone bids for a few profitable rough stones, wouldn't the people behind them be chasing after them? Wouldn't this invisibly increase the auction price of rough stones?"
"But having said that, their auction is really for the purpose of making money, so there seems to be no problem with doing so..."
"No! Why is there no problem? Which auction house would do this kind of ranking!"
"It's obvious that he came here to trick him, Meng Yan!"
Meng Yan turned to look at the fat man aside, and then looked at the people around him, all of whom were focused on him.
"Everyone!" Meng Yan turned around and said loudly to everyone in the audience at the auction.
"I saw that no one was buying this rough stone, so I bid for it with the mentality of taking a gamble. I didn't know that there was such a rare jadeite in the rough stone!"
"I don't know who created the rumor to make friends mistakenly think that I have some powerful phase stone ability. I am just an ordinary person and do not have that kind of ability!"
"This is all a complete coincidence."
It has to be said that Meng Yan's precocious temperament makes him relatively taciturn at ordinary times, so he has little opportunity to hone his art of speaking, and most of the time he stays in the stage of thinking with his brain.
He didn't know how pale his defense seemed, and some people even laughed out loud after hearing it.
"Master! Tell us your name, don't hide it!"
"Do you think we will believe it? There is no three hundred taels of silver here, Master."
"If you hadn't made Master Zhang's face swollen at the beginning, we would have almost believed you!"
People in the venue laughed and sighed that this young man really couldn't lie.
Don’t those worldly masters who practice in the mountains all year round often have one or two disciples with excellent martial arts skills? Judging from his build, this person should be about twenty years old. Maybe he is a disciple of the unworldly master Xiangshi.
I just came out to have fun this time.
Thinking of this, this group of people became even more excited. Isn't this guy wearing a mask and sunglasses just to avoid being recognized? Maybe there really is a more powerful master behind him!
