Chapter 120 Auctioning the Emperor of Fengdu!
The next day, Su Fan boarded a train to Greece, with Yuan Qingsheng accompanying him.
The train slowly traveled through China and Western countries.
Through the window, I could see the magnificent landscapes of China, as well as the breathtaking scenery of foreign countries.
Su Fan clenched his fist and secretly vowed to protect the land of China and not to seize the magnificent lands around it.
Waaaaah~~
The train traveled at a moderate speed, taking two or three days to finally reach Greece.
Inside Greece’s largest train station, a handsome young man from a wealthy family slowly stepped off the train, accompanied by an elderly butler who looked very old.
The butler carried the young master's various luggage and belongings, and a carefree smile crept onto the young master's lips.
Every now and then, young girls and young women would cast admiring glances their way.
The wealthy young master was Su Fan, and the frail old butler was Yuan Qingsheng.
Su Fan used his Seventy-Two Transformations to transform into this form, and incidentally transformed Yuan Qingsheng into that form as well.
Too many people on this planet recognize Su Fan's face.
Many people abroad have watched Su Fan's live stream of identifying deities, and even those who haven't watched the live stream have likely seen clips of it. Su Fan is incredibly popular.
For safety reasons, Su Fan and his group had no choice but to disguise themselves and enter Greece.
They even gave up riding in faster airships or other magical transportation devices, and instead rode trains like ordinary people.
Su Fan and Yuan Qingsheng went straight to the hotel they had booked in advance. After traveling for several days, they hadn't had a proper rest on the train.
They just want to get some rest now, as the auction starts tomorrow.
……
The next morning, Su Fan and Yuan Qingsheng left the hotel.
Led by a Chinese man, they wandered around Athens, the capital of Greece.
Finally, they arrived at a cramped house.
The house looks dilapidated from the outside, but once you step inside, you'll be amazed by its magnificence and luxury.
After giving the guide their invitation, and following the guide's lead through many twists and turns, Su Fan and his group finally arrived at the auction venue.
Because Su Fan and his group were big capitalists, they were led into a private room.
The auction began quickly, initially featuring Greek items, which Su Fan found completely uninteresting.
Their target appeared as he kept yawning.
The host tapped the table with a small hammer, and several Chinese deities, loaded onto a cart, were slowly pushed up.
Among them, the most eye-catching one in the middle is the statue of the Emperor of Fengdu.
When Su Fan saw the statue of the Fengdu Emperor that he had been longing for finally appear, the drowsiness in his eyes vanished, replaced by boundless excitement.
The Perseus family, a prominent Greek family, shared the same reaction as Su Fan!
Their purpose in attending this auction was also to acquire these statues of Chinese deities.
There wasn't a single good, worthwhile item in this auction, except for these statues of Chinese deities.
The young master of the Perseus family has a peculiar hobby of collecting statues of gods from various countries.
Seeing that Chinese deities were being auctioned off, they naturally wouldn't let it pass.
Perseus Lalipet, the young master of the Perseus family, was staring intently at the divine statue of the Emperor of Fengdu in the very center.
This statue of a deity was more imposing and domineering than any other statue of a Chinese deity in his collection.
Larry Pitt practically wanted to have Him immediately.
He looked at the servant beside him.
"Did you bring enough money? I don't want to run out of money to buy these statues of Chinese gods."
The servant nodded: "We've brought enough. There are hundreds of millions in this card, that's more than enough."
The servant took a card out of his pocket as he spoke.
Larry Pete nodded in satisfaction: "After we take pictures of these statues of Chinese deities, I'll give you a raise when we get back."
Larry Pete was somewhat excited, his eyes fixed on the statue of the Emperor of Fengdu.
He was absolutely obsessed with statues of gods, almost to the point of fanaticism.
After the statue of the deity was placed, the host tapped the table with a small hammer, producing a cold, clear sound.
"A statue of a Chinese deity, a fine collectible, and a rare find for collectors with a keen eye for the market. Starting bid: 10 million! Minimum increment: 5 million!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, Larry Pitt raised his sign.
"Twenty million!"
Su Fan immediately raised the sign and shouted:
"Thirty million!"
Larry Pitt continued, "Forty million!"
"Fifty million!"
"..."
The two of them started working on it.
In the end, these statues of Chinese deities were sold for a staggering 350 million!
Every buyer at the auction stared in disbelief at this insane scene.
A few statues of Chinese deities are of no use to them. They can't be contracted, so they can only be kept for display. Why is the auction price so high?
I wonder which young master from which family is doing charity work again.
Everyone thought Su Fan and Larry Pete were two spendthrifts.
Only Su Fan and Larry Pitt were determined to determine a winner.
"Four hundred million!"
Larry Pitt practically roared, his eyes bloodshot and somewhat manic.
Beside him, the servant was sweating profusely; there was only four hundred million prepared in this card.
He truly never expected that this small statue of a Chinese deity, which had no value other than being a collectible, could fetch such a high price.
Now, even if he wanted to go back and get the money, it would be impossible.
He could only wipe the cold sweat from his face and say to Larry Pete, "Young Master, there are only four hundred million in this card."
Larry Pint's face stiffened, and he spoke loudly:
"Friend, I am Larry Pete, the young master of the Perseus family. I wonder if you could do me the honor of granting these Chinese deities to my family?"
Larry Pete's voice echoed throughout the auction hall.
After hearing this, some people suddenly realized why Larry Pete was so crazy.
They had long heard that the young master of the Perseus family was an eccentric who disliked cultivation and instead preferred collecting statues of gods from various countries.
But who is this person competing with Larry Pitt, and why is he so crazy?
Su Fan spoke calmly:
"I don't care what family you're from, I won't give you this statue of a Chinese deity!"
"Four hundred and five million!"
Based on Larry Pete's words, Su Fan immediately guessed that he was out of money, and that the four hundred million was all the money he had.
So they only added five million.
Larry Pete's face immediately turned cold when he saw that Su Fan was showing him no respect. He sneered and threatened:
"Fine! Very well! You just wait!"
