Chapter 1127 How Confusing!

"Mr. Luo, I got this blue bronze tripod for you. The price was too high."

Jiao Yilang seemed to have aged several years in an instant.

With so much debt, he won't be able to hold on for long even if he is the bank president.

Luo Feng looked at Jiao Yilang's relieved yet somewhat painful expression and laughed in his heart.

This guy spent a lot of money to show off in front of him, but he didn't know that all this was part of his calculations.

"Congratulations, President Jiao. I have now bought the blue bronze tripod; it was a bit difficult." Luo Feng smiled faintly, with a hint of teasing in his tone.

Jiao Yilang forced a smile and wiped the sweat off his forehead. "It is indeed a bit strenuous, but I promised Mr. Luo, so I absolutely cannot break my promise."

This was too much pressure for him; he didn't have that much money, but he forced himself to call out a price of 650 million.

It is impossible for a person of his status to come up with so much liquid funds at once.

Luo Feng looked at Jiao Yilang, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and he continued to ask, "But I'm curious, how do you plan to raise the rest of the funds?"

"There will be another antique later, and I will take it down too."

"Mr. Luo, can't you ask a local to do it? I've already put in a lot of effort just now."

Jiao Yilang had a bitter look on his face and looked at Luo Feng eagerly, as if he was begging for something.

He felt that he couldn't possibly come up with another 600 million in cash to help Luo Feng get the twelve zodiac animal portraits.

Luo Feng was unmoved, he just raised his chin slightly, "President Jiao, I'm not trying to embarrass you on purpose, I really can't take out so much, at least I have to wait until tomorrow."

"Besides, since you want to show off in front of me, you have to bear the corresponding consequences. Didn't you just promise me that you would help me get these two cultural relics?"

Luo Feng's voice was neither hurried nor slow, but it carried a sense of powerlessness.

Jiao Yilang sighed helplessly, he knew he had no way out.

At first, he really didn't expect that these two cultural relics would require at least 1.4 billion to acquire them. This was too exaggerated.

In order to restore his image in Luo Feng's heart, he must find ways to raise funds.

"Mr. Luo, let me think of a way. I will definitely raise funds as soon as possible to meet your requirements." Jiao Yilang gritted his teeth, his tone full of determination.

Luo Feng nodded, the smile on his lips still showing a hint of playfulness.

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

"But President Jiao, time is running out. You'd better hurry up. The next antique will be here soon."

After saying that, Luo Feng no longer paid attention to Jiao Yilang, but turned his gaze to the auction table.

At this time, the auction continued, and the second antique - the bronze statue of the twelve zodiac animals - was also put on the auction table.

This bronze statue was equally exquisite, and as the last major piece, it continued to attract the attention of everyone present.

"Next, we will auction this bronze statue of the twelve zodiac animals, which also comes from the ancient royal family and has a long history and is extremely valuable."

The host's voice sounded again, with a hint of excitement in his tone.

At the same time, the corresponding PPT introduction began to appear on the big screen behind him.

Luo Feng turned to look at Jiao Yilang and said softly: "President Jiao, we can't let go of this bronze statue either."

"How's your fundraising going?"

Jiao Yilang was already a little overwhelmed at this time. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Mr. Luo, I have tried my best. I have contacted everyone I can. I can't raise more money. The rest depends on you."

He had indeed thought of a way, but he had already spent more than 600 million just to get the blue bronze tripod.

But now there is really no way to raise more than 600 million.

The value of this bronze statue of the twelve zodiac animals is at least the same as that of the blue bronze tripod.

Luo Feng nodded. He knew that Jiao Yilang had tried his best. Next, he would have to auction the antique himself.

"No matter what, thank you for your hard work, President Jiao."

The auction began and prices rose rapidly again.

Luo Feng was not in a hurry to bid and was still waiting for the right opportunity.

If you bid in advance, there is no point other than wasting time and words.

When the price stagnated at a high level again, Luo Feng finally made a move, "Six hundred and eighty million."

When this price was announced, the whole audience was shocked again.

"Who is this person? How come at least three people have bid more than 600 million today?"

"I think the identities of these three people are definitely not that simple." Many people were also guessing his identity.

"So what if it is true? In this underground auction, everyone's identity is hidden. No one knows who is behind the scenes."

"..."

"Six hundred and eighty-five million." A voice sounded again. It was the person who had bid with Jiao Yilang before.

Luo Feng smiled slightly. He knew that the other party had reached his limit. He offered again, "700 million."

This time, the voice did not appear again.

The auctioneer's voice echoed in the venue, "Seven hundred million once, seven hundred million twice, seven hundred million three times...deal!"

Luo Feng successfully bought the bronze statues of the twelve zodiac animals. He stood up, nodded to Jiao Yilang, then turned and left the auction site.

Jiao Yilang looked at Luo Feng's back with mixed feelings.

He felt that he had been cheated by Luo Feng, but at the same time he had to admit that Luo Feng's methods were indeed brilliant.

The most important thing is that at the beginning he was willing to cooperate with Luo Feng in order to establish a good relationship with him and help Luo Feng obtain this cultural relic.

If he had known he would encounter this situation, he should have considered it carefully at the time.

He felt a headache when he thought about the financial pressure of 300 million yuan he would have to face.

He could only hope that Luo Feng could return the money to him as soon as possible.

As for other cultural relics, he was indeed interested in them, but now he has spent all his money on Luo Feng.

In order to help him get the blue bronze tripod, he had no choice but to stay and auction it.

Luo Feng walked out of the auction site, feeling extremely relaxed.

Not only did he successfully bid for two precious antiques, but he also made Jiao Yilang willingly pay for them.

"Mr. Luo, where are we going next?" Bai Ningbing followed behind Luo Feng and asked in a low voice.

Luo Feng smiled slightly, "Let's go to the dock, our plan has just begun."

Under the cover of night, the figures of Luo Feng and Bai Ningbing gradually faded away.

Jiao Yilang stood at the auction site, looking in the direction where Luo Feng left, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

In this auction, he not only lost a large sum of money, but also lost an opportunity to cooperate with Luo Feng.

After all, he did not help Luo Feng get the bronze statue of the twelve zodiac animals as agreed.

"Damn, so stupid! So stupid!" But at the same time, he also realized that a person like Luo Feng was not someone he could easily control.

This auction is destined to become an unforgettable experience in Jiao Yilang's life.

Jiao Yilang was alone at the auction, feeling frustrated for a long time, and finally had no choice but to leave.

Now he must find a way to solve the financial pressure of 300 million as soon as possible.

On the other side, half an hour later, Luo Feng and Bai Ningbing arrived at the shipping terminal. The sea breeze blew gently, bringing with it a hint of salty taste.

Having arranged the two artifacts in advance, they successfully arrived here within an hour.

"After taking down Boss Hua this time, I have an idea. I will arrange a team in this intercontinental island."

Luo Feng told Bai Ningbing his thoughts.

"I feel that since Boss Hua can sit in that position, there must be someone behind him." Bai Ningbing pondered.

Luo Feng nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "That's right, Boss Hua is definitely not an ordinary person, the forces behind him must be complicated."

"Although our operation was successful this time, we cannot let our guard down. Moreover, Boss Hua has not yet appeared. We don't know if we can catch him. We need to plan every step carefully."

Bai Ningbing looked at the vast ocean and said thoughtfully, "Then how should we deal with the possible counterattack from Boss Hua?"

“I didn’t expect that this would happen in the same way as in Ireland.”

The memory of her death was suddenly attacked again.

When he was in Ireland, Luo Feng also experienced life and death situations every day and had to be careful all the time.

This time when he came to the intercontinental island, there were no problems at first. He thought it was developing in a good direction.

But it turned out that he was wrong, and he inevitably encountered some people who wanted to target him.

This time, he almost fell into Boss Hua's trap. If Luo Feng had not arrived in time, he dared not think about the consequences.

Luo Feng was silent for a moment, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "Let's first properly place these two antiques according to the plan and ensure their safety."

"Then, pay close attention to Boss Hua's movements and be prepared to deal with any unexpected events at any time."

At this time, Team Leader Chen walked up to Luo Feng and reported the situation, "Mr. Luo, we have just asked them to call Boss Hua."

"Boss Hua has no suspicion at all now. He thinks the person they are arresting is at the dock."

Luo Feng nodded slightly, "Very good, continue as planned."

"We must ensure everything is foolproof and not let Boss Hua notice anything unusual."

Team leader Chen nodded and continued to send people to make the arrangements.

Luo Feng looked at Bai Ningbing, "How about you leave first and I'll send someone to take you back?"

He was worried that if Boss Hua came later and something unexpected happened, Bai Ningbing might be hurt.

"No, I want to stay here. I want to see that person, and I believe you can arrange everything." Bai Ningbing said.

She actually said this because she was almost cheated by Boss Hua and she was feeling very angry, so she wanted to see who this person was.

Luo Feng could understand Bai Ningbing's thoughts. He nodded and said with a smile: "No problem, then we will wait for him here."

"But you still have to hide for a while, so that Boss Hua won't find out that you haven't been caught."

Luo Feng has already set up a tight net and is waiting for Boss Hua to send people to sneak in.

If he saw Bai Ningbing standing next to him, he would probably realize that this was a trap, and it would be difficult for him to control the situation.

"Okay, call me over when you're done." Bai Ningbing nodded slightly.

Luo Feng continued to wait at the dock, waiting for Boss Hua to arrive. At the same time, he called Lin Naizi.

"Find me a freight method. I want to ship two antiques to Sakura. Please help me pick them up when the time comes."

Luo Feng planned to transport the blue bronze tripod and the twelve zodiac animals that he photographed today back to Sakura. After all, all his antiques were there.

At that time, Luo Feng also planned to put all these antiques in China, which was a long process.

After all, he had already bought quite a few antiques at that time.

"I saw you were at this shipping terminal. Are you waiting for Boss Hua?" Lin Naizi asked back.

Luo Feng nodded, "Yes, I'll wait here for him to come."

"It will be two hours soon. This guy should call me and ask me if I have thought it over. I will tell him that I am willing to communicate and cooperate with him, and he will come over. Then..." A sinister smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

"I will let someone from the shipping company contact you tomorrow. He is my man, so don't worry, you can hand the antiques over to him." Lin Naizi said to Luo Feng.

"Okay, I believe you." Luo Feng nodded. At this time, Boss Hua called.

Luo Feng looked at the incoming call from Boss Hua displayed on his phone, and his eyes instantly became sharp.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then answered the phone.

"Luo Feng, what have you considered?" Boss Hua's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of arrogance and threat.

Luo Feng deliberately made his voice sound hesitant.

"Boss Hua, I've thought it through. I'm willing to cooperate with you."

"Where are you now? Let's meet and talk in detail."

Boss Hua seemed very satisfied with Luo Feng's answer. He chuckled and said, "Very good. I knew you were a smart man. I'm rushing to the shipping terminal now. You wait for me there."

After saying that, Boss Hua hung up the phone.

Luo Feng put down his phone and a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, Boss Hua has taken the bait.

Then, Luo Feng summoned Team Leader Chen and confirmed the arrangements again to ensure that everything was under control.

Then, he waited quietly for Boss Hua to arrive.

As time passed, the atmosphere on the dock became more and more tense.

Finally, there was a roar of a car, and Boss Hua appeared at the dock with a group of people.

Luo Feng looked at Boss Hua with a fake smile on his face, "Boss Hua, you are finally here."

Boss Hua glanced around the dock, his eyes full of vigilance, "Luo Feng, you'd better not play any tricks. Otherwise, you will regret it."

Luo Feng raised his hands and acted innocently, "Boss Hua, don't worry, since I have decided to cooperate with you, I will not regret it."

"Can we talk about the specific cooperation matters now?"

Boss Hua nodded slightly and was about to speak when suddenly, he seemed to realize something was wrong.

Not only did he not see his people and the kidnapped Bai Ningbing, but the surroundings were also empty, with no one there.

His expression changed, "Luo Feng, how dare you set up a trap to deceive me?!"
