A trace of gloom appeared on Moran's face. He glanced at the Japanese Ito Shengjing who was disrupting the situation, banged the gavel in his hand hard, and said angrily:
"Quiet, please be quiet."
However, that little hammer obviously has no effect!
The people in the audience are all powerful and powerful people from all over the world, so naturally they will not listen to him.
"I ask the auction house to give me an explanation why it released the news of this auction before confirming its authenticity?
Why, there are two maps?”
An Arab prince stood up angrily and asked loudly.
"That's right! Please give us a reasonable explanation."
As everyone's voices gradually echoed, the scene was almost out of control.
There was no anger on Liu Shiba's face, he felt something was wrong...
Who is Ito Mikage?
What is his purpose of disrupting the situation this time? To stop this copycat map, or does he have some other agenda?
Or, the purpose of the Japanese is the same as mine?
Box nineteen?
And what does it mean when Ito Shengjing gives him a wink?
Could it be that Ito Mikage's current actions are reminding him of something?
The Japanese have other purposes?
Thinking of this, Liu Shiba felt cold all over and stood up abruptly!
"Your Highness the Prince, and Mr. Frater from the Nicholas family, this gentleman from Japan who holds another map, the three of you, please come with me to the backstage for verification, okay?"
Moran was a little helpless. He couldn't suppress the situation, so he had to first identify the authenticity of the unknown picture held by Ito Shengjing, who was disrupting the situation, in order to temporarily calm down the accident.
How smart Ito Mikage is, what he wants is chaos, and of course he cannot give Sotheby's such an opportunity.
"No! I ask the auction house to give us an explanation on the spot, otherwise, I don't think you will give up."
Ito Shengjing's last words were spoken to everyone in the audience, even to Liu Shiba alone...
Liu Shiba quietly stared at Ito Shengjing, thoughtfully...
The rich people from various countries in the audience have been involved in auctions in various countries for many years, and they are all a bunch of talented people.
As soon as I heard Mikage Ito's words, I understood what Sotheby's Auction House was trying to do. Isn't it just a delaying tactic?
"Yes! We require verification on the spot."
The people in the audience were all in one voice at this moment.
The situation gradually became unmanageable. Moran smiled bitterly, unable to maintain the order of the auction. Nothing he did now would help.
It was impossible for him to identify it on the spot. It was easy to see if the Japanese hand was a fake. What if it was real?
Aren’t you and the auction house in disrepute?
Will Moscow’s Sotheby’s branch become the laughing stock of the world?
…………
At this time, a beautiful girl walked out of a secret door behind the booth. As soon as Moran saw her, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said happily:
"Sofia, you are finally here!"
"What's going on? Why is the auction like this? Uncle Moran."
Sophia's voice was very majestic, and her tone revealed the unique aura of a superior person.
Even more powerful than Moore, the president of Sotheby's.
The girl called Sofia is about 20 years old and can be considered a very beautiful Russian girl.
She is Sotheby's current youngest appraiser Eva, Sophia, and Liu Shiba had dealt with her when she was commissioned previously.
"There was a Japanese who said that there is another one of that ancient map."
Moran frowned and explained what happened at the scene!
Eva and Sophia frowned slightly and glanced at Liu Shiba and his group.
Then Sofia looked at Ito Shengjing and walked over.
"Sir, I am Sophia, the chief appraiser of Sotheby's auction house. Who are you?"
………………
At the Sotheby's auction house, the beautiful appraiser Sophia walked up to Ito Shengjing and asked in English with a smile.
Ito Shengjing was a head taller than Sophia. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he actually exuded a little pressure and looked at Sophia and said coldly:
"I am Ito Shengjing of the Japanese Empire."
Ito Mikage wanted to use this oppressive move to put himself in a favorable position. First, he would plant a seed in Sophia's heart so that his opponent would not dare to contradict him!
This is also a trick commonly used by negotiation experts, and the effect is very good.
Liu Shiba's eyes flashed, Ito Shengjing turned out to be a member of the top ten cultivators, and he was cultivating the official way?
A possible double agent, hiding as an official in Japan?
No matter how weird it looks...
If Ito Mikage is really a Chinese undercover agent who has been hiding with Yamamoto Yagyi for decades...
Then this Ito Shengjing is so terrible!
It is so difficult to completely transform yourself into a Japanese!
Ito Mikage's wishful thinking was good, but he miscalculated what kind of woman Sophia was.
Sofia is a strong Russian girl who travels to various countries and auctions all year round. How can she be easily intimidated?
Sophia's face did not change at that moment, she smiled and said:
"Hello, Mr. Ito! I often hear your name. It is said that General Yamamoto of Japan has a very loyal man by his side. He must be you."
Ito Shengjing's expression changed and then returned to normal.
"Miss Sophia, you are the chief appraiser at a young age and you are indeed well-informed. Could you please give me some advice?"
Ito Mikage's attitude was still calm, but there was no sense of oppression like before.
Sophia knew that this was a kind of momentum buffer, so she didn't mind Ito's rudeness, but pretended to be surprised and said:
"I personally identified that map and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. As far as I know, there is only one such map in the world.
I wonder what kind of map Mr. Ito Mikage’s is?”
Ito Shengjing smiled slightly when he heard this, and retorted in a slow and logical manner:
"So that's it. Is it possible that Miss Sophia is so confident that what she has identified is not a fake?"
"Mr. Ito, are you doubting my vision? Or Sotheby's credibility?"
Sophia looked dissatisfied.
"this……"
Ito Mikage didn’t expect Sophia to respond like this!
Once these words are true, it means that Ito Mikage is suspected of disdain for Sotheby's or the British royal family.
Isn’t the general backstage of Russian Sotheby’s the British Royal Family of the Commonwealth?
"Mr. Ito, please put your question aside for now. Let's discuss it after the auction is over, okay?"
Sophia was extremely well-educated and suggested with a smile.
"Miss Sophia, I'm very sorry. I think you should verify the authenticity of the map first before discussing other issues?
I believe that the gentlemen and ladies in the audience must be impatient to wait."
Ito Mikage pointed to the audience, did a Tai Chi move, and diverted his attention.
"Sorry, due to an unexpected incident, I have decided to cancel today's auction!"
Sophia looked back at Moore and made a decision resolutely!
Regardless of whether it is true or false, the identification site must not be exposed to the public!
Even if it turns out later that the one in my hand is fake, there is still room for maneuver!
Then, Sophia looked thoughtfully at Ito Shengjing, a trace of doubt flashing in her eyes!
Then, she turned to look at Liu Shiba, who was standing in the audience with the same confused look on his face.
At this time, Ito Shengjing stared at Liu Shiba with a confused face, shaking his head secretly with regret...
"This guy is actually the successor of the Liu family? He's still too young..."
