Chapter 1283 [1283] Bastard, how can you talk to Mr. Ye like that?
Sanmu Chaoyang is now very sure that Ye Feng must have received his offer in advance.
I kept thinking about the list of suspects in my mind. Which bastard dared to betray me? I must tear you into pieces!
The announcement of the offer lasted for nearly an hour before it was declared over.
This hour was like sitting on pins and needles for Miki Chaoyang.
Every time Ye Feng won a collection and stood up to accept everyone's congratulations, the applause from the audience seemed to slap him in the face.
The torment was not over until Taro Sakikawa announced the result of the last lot.
Lin Qianqian excitedly stood up and hugged Ye Feng.
They made a total of nineteen attempts, and every piece of collection fell into their trap without any surprise.
According to Ye Feng's estimation, the total value of these collections is at least around 800 million Chinese yuan.
The total cost of his participation in this bidding was less than five million Chinese yuan.
In other words, he made more than a hundred times the profit from this auction.
Of course, one should never forget the person who dug the well when drinking water. The reason why I can get such a great reward is thanks to Mr. Miki.
If he had not selected these items in advance and deliberately let the auction house and Shita Toyama cooperate with him, it would have been a pipe dream for him to get these items at such a low price.
"Thank you Mr. Miki for your help." He immediately turned around and stretched out his hand to express his gratitude to Miki Chaoyang.
But Sanmu Chaoyang couldn't be happy, and he couldn't even pretend. When Ye Feng extended his hand to him, he turned a blind eye to it and still sat there with a gloomy face.
"Mr. Ye, what a good trick! I wonder how you got the information about my offer?" He was filled with hatred at this moment, and he no longer concealed the fact that he had already decided on these items in advance.
Ye Feng waved his hands hurriedly, "Mr. Sanmu, you are joking. Your quotes are confidential. How could I know in advance? Hahaha."
As he spoke, he glanced at Toyama Shita as if nothing had happened.
Miki Chaoyang quickly caught his action and immediately looked at Toyama Shita with eyes as sharp as knives.
It’s you, kid!
Yuanshan Shita's expression suddenly changed drastically. He jumped up from his chair and pointed at Ye Feng's nose angrily. "Mr. Ye, please tell me clearly. Who told you about Mr. Miki's offer?"
Because he was too anxious, he couldn't control his voice, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone around him.
Ye Feng looked at him innocently, "Mr. Yuanshan, I didn't say you were the one who revealed it to me. You said before that you are my fan, how can you talk to me in this way?"
Toyama Shita was about to lose his mind at this time, and immediately cursed, "Who the hell is your fan? A lowly Chinese pig is worthy of being my idol? Tell me the truth, how did you know Mr. Miki's offer? Otherwise, I will kill you..."
Before he could finish his words, Sanmu Chaoyang stood up suddenly and slapped him.
"Snapped!"
The slap was so hard that Toyama Shita spun around twice and fell to the ground.
"Asshole, how can you talk to Mr. Ye?"
Miki Chaoyang stared at him fiercely, his eyes so sharp that it seemed like he could kill.
"Mr. Miki, it was not me who revealed your quotation to him. You handed me the quotation sheet last night and sent people to follow me closely. I just met this Ye today, and it was impossible for me to contact him in advance..." Toyama Shita lay on the ground with his face covered, and hurriedly explained to Miki Chaoyang.
"Shut up! If you dare to say another word, I will kill you right now."
Sanmu Chaoyang was really anxious now. He cursed and looked at other people.
Sure enough, everyone present began to whisper.
"That's not right. Didn't Toyama Shita say before that he was a fan of Mr. Ye? Why is he saying now that he didn't know Mr. Ye before?"
"And he also said that Mr. Miki gave him the quotation sheet last night? How is that possible?"
"Yes, the auction of those collections only started today. How did Mr. Miki know the serial numbers of these collections and make an offer yesterday?"
"Unless the auction house leaked the information about the collection to him in advance, there is no other explanation."
"Could it be that Miki Chaoyang has a private transaction with the auction house? Is he teasing us on purpose?"
Those who can come to the auction today are all smart people and are very familiar with some of the shady dealings in the antique business.
He immediately heard a lot of information from Toyama Shita's words and began to look at Miki Chaoyang and Sakikawa Taro with suspicion.
Taro Sakikawa was already sweating profusely.
If this matter is really exposed, then the Qichuan Auction House will have no chance of continuing to operate.
Seeing everyone's suspicious eyes, he hastily denied it, "Don't listen to his nonsense. Our Qichuan Auction House has been established for more than 30 years and has never done anything that violates industry regulations."
Everyone was already suspicious, so they certainly wouldn't let him fool them with just one sentence.
"Haha, we've seen the methods of your Qichuan Auction House before. You suddenly changed the rules one day before the auction. If we didn't have sufficient funds, we might not even be able to enter the auction this time."
"Yes, yes, that's even more suspicious. Suddenly raising the entry threshold the day before the auction starts, making it impossible for many people to participate in the bidding. This is a disguised way of squeezing out competitors."
"It seems that there is something fishy about this auction. Mr. Qichuan, I hope you can give us a satisfactory explanation. Otherwise, your Qichuan Auction House will not be able to survive in the future."
"I don't have any other requests. My only request is that the results of this auction be invalidated and we hold another auction..."
Listening to the harsh rebukes from the crowd, Taro Sakigawa wiped his sweat and asked Miki Chaoyang for help.
Miki Chaoyang's expression at this moment was also very interesting. Not only did he fail to get any collection today, but he was also facing the danger of being exposed.
If I can't resolve this matter quickly, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in the antique circle in the future.
But at this moment, he really couldn't think of an effective solution.
Just when the two were extremely anxious, Ye Feng suddenly spoke up, "Mr. Sanmu, does Mr. Yuanshan have mental problems? When you invited him to be a consultant, didn't you pay attention to this problem?"
Miki Chaoyang didn't understand at first and looked at him with confusion. But when he saw that the other party was secretly winking at him, he immediately reacted.
"Yes, yes, yes. Toyama Shita does have a mental illness, but I saw that he was quite good at identification, so I took a risk and hired him. I didn't expect that after a little shock, his old illness relapsed and he started talking nonsense. Sigh..."
As he spoke, he cast a threatening look at Toyama Shita.
