As the two of them passed through an unknown alley, Yang Bo became cautious in his heart, "If it's too far, then there's no need to go over."

"Not far, not far. Just ahead." Lee Er explained, and then said, "You can rest assured, you definitely won't find an alleyway that is too remote for no one to handle. After all, I have to consider it on behalf of my customers!"

Yang Bo nodded, "Why did you suddenly choose me?"

Lee Er was slightly taken aback, "Oh, did you not notice? Many people in the venue pick and choose, but the majority of them are holding items that they bought. Some people even need to hide them in snakeskin bags, and very few people are as relaxed as you. You don't even have anything in your hands! "

"That indicates a problem. You definitely do not like the items on the other side. People like that, aren't they our customers?"

"I don't have much money." Yang Bo continued.

Lee Er did not care, "The money you have is not much, that means you have money in the card, do not worry about it, even if you do not have money, but to take a look and get familiar with our operations, and wait for the next time, prepare more, that will be fine too!"

Yang Bo was astonished. He guessed that the other party was not some simple seller, because many people would directly attack from the left side of the Antique City. From the sounds of the other party, this was actually a long-term business deal!

Very quickly, Lee Er stopped and pointed to a small courtyard: "This is the place."

Yang Bo looked over, the place was green brick and tiles, the style of the courtyard was simple and unsophisticated, and he had passed here before, but he did not know that this place had been renovated.

Lee Er knocked on the door regularly, when the person at the door called out to Lee Er, and Yang Bo followed him in.

The room was low, and a dim yellow incandescent lamp was emitting a dim glow. There were already a few people sitting in the room. Everyone was sitting in their chairs, leisurely chatting while sipping tea. The fragrance of tea wafted in the air.

When Yang Bo walked in, everyone turned their heads to look. After a single glance, they turned their heads, and when Yang Bo came in for the first time, everyone thought that he looked familiar. Furthermore, he was young and came alone, so no one paid too much attention to him.

Yang Bo noticed a gaze looking at him, he raised his head and looked, the man was dressed in black, his hair was sparse and shiny, with a comb on his back, it was Assistant Curator Qu!

The Assistant Curator Qu looked in his direction for a moment, and then quickly turned his head away. Yang Bo, on the other hand, was extremely surprised, he never thought that he would meet the other party so quickly. Previously, he had almost been tricked by the Assistant Curator Qu, but he was the one following them, after all, it was slightly wrong.

Yang Bo sized up the crowd once again, and there were about seven or eight people present. Some of them came alone, while a few had people accompanying them.

After Yang Bo sat down, he looked at the layout of the place, it was more like a small teahouse, surrounded by a stage, and of course there were no stage, everyone seemed to be sitting around a table in the northern direction, the location Yang Bo had picked was the most remote place, it was his first time coming here, he hoped to observe it for the first time.

Actually, upon seeing this situation, Yang Bo had already guessed the transaction format here, and only the underground auction would produce such a result. However, there were very few people here, so the bid shouldn't be too intense.

Yang Bo started to regret again. If he had known earlier, he would have brought more money over!

Very soon, along with the sound of footsteps, the entire place quieted down. Everyone seemed to be anticipating something.

One person walked in with large strides, and happily cupped his hands towards the crowd, "Thank you for your support, and thank you for your presence. The conditions are simple, so please forgive me!" "Please forgive me!"

Lu Li turned his head and saw that the man had a big face and a sharp face. From the look of it, he was quite determined.

Everyone laughed, but did not respond to his words. That person seemed to be already used to it. He took a big step forward and walked to the center, "Alright, let's not talk too much. It's as usual."

Saying that, he turned and looked around, and upon seeing Yang Bo, he was startled: "Oh? Since we have a new friend, let me introduce myself! "

"My surname is Mei, and I am known as Mei Laosan. After all, our transaction is a bit more casual, but we still have to follow the rules. Also, taking photos and recording is strictly prohibited. If we find anything, don't blame me for being careless! "

After saying that, the Mei Laosan turned solemn and began to patrol around the group again, like a lion patrolling the territories.

Yang Bo did not reveal any reaction on his face, these were all due to him and he did not intend to do these things.

"Ol 'Three, let's hurry up and start. I'm tired of listening to all of this. Have you gotten any good items this time?" An old man in his sixties said impatiently.

Mei Laosan smiled brilliantly, "Master Yu, just watch carefully, you will definitely be satisfied with this time's item!"

"Alright, let's start now!"

As he spoke, someone brought over a tray which was placed on a table in the middle. It was a blue and white bottle!

"Those interested, come up and take a look!" The Mei Laosan laughed.

From afar, the first bottle looked like it was tied up with a neck and shoulders. The white glaze was tight and white, like a beautiful woman standing in front of her.

However, Yang Bo noticed the rules of the auction, most of them were elders, so they went up one by one, so he was not anxious, waiting for the majority of the people to go up, only then did he walk up, and participate in this kind of transaction, it was a rare opportunity to learn, so naturally he would not let it go.

After looking carefully, a circle of light appeared before his eyes, and a strand of light flew into his eyes. Yang Bo nodded slightly, being able to determine that this five-colored character's poetry container should be around the age of two, which was extremely rare.

Yang Bo sat back down and calculated in his heart. He knew that it was impossible, even if he were to take out all of the one hundred and seventy thousand, he would still not be able to take it off.

Sure enough, the Mei Laosan said: "The starting price is one hundred thousand, each increment must not be less than one thousand!"

There was no mediocre person that could appear in such a place. The bids rang out in all directions.

"One hundred and fifty thousand!"

"One hundred and ten thousand!"

"One hundred and thirty thousand!"

"..."

"One hundred and eighty thousand!"

Yang Bo looked at the situation in the arena and his heart felt a little at ease. His state of mind gradually became peaceful, and not every antique would have to be left for him to pick up on.

The next bid increase was not as intense as before, and soon stopped.

"Two hundred and thirty thousand!" An old man with a surname spoke.

No one replied, Mei Laosan laughed: "Master Yu, this is yours!"

Yang Bo estimated that the actual price of the bottle was higher than tens of thousands of dollars. After all, he still had to pay taxes and fees at the auction house.
