After careful examination, Luo Yunhang was able to confirm that the seal was indeed Liu Yong's.
Xiang Tianhong shared the same idea.
After the two had finished looking around and were pondering, they returned to their seats. Suddenly, a woman brushed past Luo Yunhang, stuffed a crumpled piece of paper into his hand, and calmly left as if nothing had happened.
Although Luo Yunhang was surprised, he didn't make a sound and naturally returned to his seat.
Xiang Tianhong, Lao He, and Yuan Tiangang were discussing whether or not to make a move to auction off the seal.
Luo Yunhang secretly opened the paper in his palm and glanced at it, immediately breaking out in a cold sweat.
That woman was actually a police officer!
Before coming, Luo Yunhang wore glasses to avoid being recognized, but the police officer had sharp eyes and recognized him at a glance.
Isn't that the guy who donated cultural relics in the newspaper? He's here too! Perfect, let him lend a hand as well.
So the policewoman casually tore off a piece of paper, wrote a few words, and slipped it into Luo Yunhang's hand while he was on stage to check the seal.
They didn't say anything else, just told Luo Yunhang to be extra careful when they were moving around, and to ask for his cooperation if necessary.
Luo Yunhang instantly realized that this woman was a cultural relics police officer.
He secretly glanced in the woman's direction.
They discovered that the woman was also carrying a gun, which she had hidden under her skirt.
There were two men next to her, presumably her companions.
Three people? They think they can take on a criminal gang one-on-one? Are you kidding me? They'd rather die than get him killed!
I don't know how they got the information. The information is obviously wrong. With just those three guns, they're clearly just here to be delivered to the enemy.
Hopefully they have backup plans and reinforcements.
"System task issued: Assist the police in stopping Yuan Laosan and his group from trafficking cultural relics."
Task Reward: One copy card.
At this moment, Luo Yunhang's attention was no longer on the auction, but on how to get out unscathed.
No matter how good these things are, if you're dead, they're all useless. If a war breaks out, bullets don't have eyes.
Luo Yunhang began to observe the surrounding situation.
Including the two guards at the entrance and the leader Yuan Laosan on the stage, there were a total of twelve people in the team.
For some reason, he felt very uneasy, so he used his X-ray vision to check around again.
Fortunately, he was alert. This time, he discovered that there was a man hiding under the makeshift platform. He was lying in the shadows, watching the people outside through a small hole, and there was a big thing next to him—a sniper rifle!
If someone were to be targeted, they could be taken down in one go.
Despite the sweltering heat, Luo Yunhang was covered in a cold sweat.
According to the policewoman's plan, they intended to launch a surprise attack after the auction ended and the crowd had dispersed.
However, the disparity in strength between the two sides was indeed too great.
They were all armed with real weapons. It was thirteen against three, a sure thing that they were trapped like turtles in a jar. It was hard to say who would catch whom.
Even with him included, there's little chance of winning.
Luo Yunhang ran through all thirty-six stratagems in his mind, but in the end he could only come up with one solution: capture the king first!
These small fry in the audience aren't important. The main thing is to catch that Yuan Laosan and take care of the sniper. That would give us a better chance of winning.
Luo Yunhang was having a crazy brainstorming session.
"Hey, what are you thinking about!" Xiang Tianhong nudged him.
"What did you say?" Luo Yunhang came to his senses.
"Brother Yuan is asking you, the Japanese have made an offer, should we accept it?"
Luo Yunhang thought to himself, "What are you talking about? I'm about to lose my life."
But he said, "Go ahead, let's fucking kill him."
Yuan Tiangang seized the opportunity to raise the price: "Eighty thousand!"
"One hundred thousand!" the Japanese man named Watanabe bid.
Yuan Tiangang shouted, "110,000!"
While watching the situation on the stage, Luo Yunhang was also observing his surroundings with a chaotic mind.
He used his X-ray vision to its fullest extent, switching back and forth between the sniper and the courtyard.
Xiang Tianhong noticed his absent-mindedness.
"What's wrong? Don't you think this seal is good?" he whispered in Luo Yunhang's ear.
Luo Yunhang pursed his lips, but finally decided to tell him anyway. After all, bullets don't discriminate, and if a fight broke out, he couldn't guarantee that he could lead him and Yuan Tiangang to safety.
So he leaned close to Xiang Tianhong's ear and said, "This place has been targeted by the police. If there's any danger later, you should take Brother Yuan and run away immediately."
This house has three gates. The one we just came in through is the main gate. If you go out, turn right, then left and walk straight, there's a side gate; that's safer.
He had already used his X-ray vision to scout the way.
When the crowds start running, everyone will rush towards the main entrance they just came in through; the less crowded route is the only way to survive.
Yuan Tiangang was a straightforward person who couldn't keep things to himself. He was afraid that Yuan Tiangang would ruin things, and he was also afraid that Yuan Tiangang would lose his temper and try to show off, so he didn't dare to tell him.
Xiang Tianhong was a reliable person. Although he was startled by the news, he quickly tried to maintain his composure and did not ask Luo Yunhang how he knew about it.
He just nodded.
Okay, I understand.
While the two were talking, the price of Liu Yong's seal had already been driven up to 280,000.
Watanabe immediately increased it to: 300,000.
After all, it's just a seal, not made of any rare material. It only has Liu Yong's name on it, so 300,000 is really the maximum.
Yuan Tiangang refused to believe it and insisted on arguing with Watanabe: "Three hundred and twenty thousand!"
Yuan Laosan on the stage was overjoyed.
"This boss has raised the price to 320,000. Is there anything higher? This is a golden opportunity!"
Watanabe angrily rattled off a bunch of things in his own language, but it was unclear what he was saying; he probably meant to swear.
He then had his translator increase the price to 350,000.
Yuan Laosan was so happy he couldn't stop smiling.
Yuan Tiangang was breathing heavily with anger, and was about to raise the price again when Luo Yunhang stopped him: "Brother Yuan, let him have it."
Anyway, no one can take anything from here today.
Yuan Tiangang, furious, puffed out his beard and glared, "No way! Anyway, I, Old Yuan, brought plenty of money today!"
Luo Yunhang watched helplessly as he directly raised the price to 380,000.
Watanabe gritted his teeth and increased the price to 400,000.
Yuan Tiangang, his face flushed and neck red, wanted to raise the price again, but Luo Yunhang stopped him, saying, "Brother Yuan, listen to me!"
"Four hundred thousand once! Four hundred thousand twice! Four hundred thousand three times! Deal!" With a wave of his hand, Old Yuan concluded the transaction.
Although Watanabe obtained the seal, he was somewhat unhappy because he had inexplicably spent over 100,000 to 200,000 more coins, and he muttered curses under his breath at Yuan Tiangang, that roughneck.
Yuan Tiangang angrily said to Luo Yunhang, "Didn't you tell me to ambush him? Why did you let him have it again!"
Although it cost him some extra money, the Japanese still managed to take the item, which made Yuan Tiangang unhappy.
"Just wait and see, don't rush," Luo Yunhang could only advise him.
