"Thirty thousand!" Yang Bo glanced in the direction of the Assistant Curator Qu.

"Forty thousand!" Assistant Curator Qu smiled, but he showed no mercy when he raised the price.

Yang Bo did not rush to reply, he guessed the other party's intentions. Thirty thousand yuan was already the market price of this Jade Dancer, but Assistant Curator Qu was willing to raise the price so much, could it be that he saw through something?

That was true, since he could see it, it was inevitable that other people would see it as well. Yang Bo slightly hesitated, "45,000!"

"48,000!" Assistant Curator Qu kept raising the price, as if he was unwilling to budge.

Yang Bo frowned, "Fifty thousand!"

"Since this young lad likes this Jade Dancer so much, then I shall let you have it!"

Assistant Curator Qu suddenly retracted his hand, catching Yang Bo off guard. However, he suddenly remembered that when he sold the Fish-Basket-Shaped Vase, it was exactly fifty thousand yuan. Curator Qu once again said that, probably wanting to use this opportunity to teach him a lesson!

It's just that Assistant Curator Qu's methods are too ruthless!

Yang Bo won the Jade Dancer for fifty thousand, no one had much of a reaction, so the following auction was still in progress.

After the Jade Dancer was obtained, Yang Bo held onto it calmly, not paying any more attention to the items at the front desk. He only wanted to wait until he sold this Jade Dancer, then he would definitely return home, because his father's illness could not be delayed any longer, even if he did not have 850,000 gold on him. It was fine for him to be hospitalized for the early stage of the examination, but this way, he would have more time to prepare for his medical fees!

As Yang Bo was lost in thought, the auction had already reached its conclusion. He never would have thought that Assistant Curator Qu never bought anything from the beginning to end, which actually disappointed him.

The last item was bought by a low-key old man, so the auction was considered to be over.

Mei Laosan stood in front of the stage and clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention, "This auction is over, I would like to thank everyone for coming. As for the next time, it is still the same as last time, if there are any new friends who want to know, I'm afraid that they will have to show their true strength next time!"

When the Mei Laosan was speaking, he did not clearly indicate which direction he was looking in, but everyone was clear that his last sentence was intended for Yang Bo to hear.

Yang Bo did not say anything, he did not have any obvious plans for the future, and even wanted to draw a clear line between them. After all, these secret trades were not only illegal, but it was also because of the existence of these secret trades that further increased the arrogance of the tomb robbers!

Yang Bo negotiated with the other party and finally paid with his card. He finally got the Jade Dancer of the Han Dynasty, he was elated but he did not dare show it, afraid that others would see through it.

Yang Bo took the Jade Dancer and was about to leave, when he heard the bald tattooed man ask: "Does Mr Yang want to come next time?"

Yang Bo started to hesitate. Even though he was unwilling to come again, he was not sure if he would be able to gather enough medical fees for his father. After all, this was also a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Yang Bo finally convinced himself and nodded at the other party, "I'll come back next time."

"That's good. Mr Yang, please leave a method of contacting him. When the time comes, he will notify us." The brawny man seemed rough on the outside, but he was extremely polite when it came to dealing with people!

When the time comes, he would have to inform Guo Bapi that he had to make a trip home. After getting some money, he could tell that his father would not go to the hospital, so he might as well forcefully send his father to the hospital.

He should have already collected more than half of the Jade Dancer's medical fees!

Yang Bo stepped out of the courtyard door, and met Young Master Luo and his appraiser head on. The two of them were standing outside the door, as if they were waiting for someone.

Yang Bo still only knew a little about the identity of the Young Master Luo, but he still nodded slightly towards the other party, and turned to leave.

Suddenly, he heard Young Master Luo ask: "Little brother Yang, please wait!"

Yang Bo stopped in his tracks and looked at the other party. He felt suspicious, and did not know what the other party's intentions were.

Young Master Luo smiled, "Master Feng has something he wants to ask Little Brother Yang."

Yang Bo followed the direction pointed by the Young Master Luo, and saw that the old appraiser from the Young Master Luo had a kind smile on his face, "Little brother, you don't have to be nervous, I just want to know the background of that Jade Dancer of the Han Dynasty, and why are you so determined to get it!"

Yang Bo paused for a moment, "Didn't Master Feng also see this piece of Jade Dancer, what did you see would be!"

Assistant Curator Qu greeted the few people he knew, then walked out. Just as he was about to hear the final words of the two, he laughed: "Brother Feng, no need to ask too much, other people might not know the details, but I'm afraid they've been tricked by this brat. I am very clear, Yang Bo is a lackey from Gu De Zai!"

"Gu De Zhai is at a very small antique shop near the palace. He's only been working there for two years. This guy, relying on his eloquence, actually snuck in here!"

Assistant Curator Qu glanced at Yang Bo with some disdain.

Yang Bo actually nodded his head, "I am an antique shop assistant, there's nothing to argue about. Furthermore, I have never introduced myself with any other identity!"

The Assistant Curator Qu laughed coldly, "I have exposed him, he is indeed a straightforward person, but he is immoral and his character is low. Back then, he stood behind me and stole a cultural relic that I had my eyes on, his conduct was truly improper!"

When Assistant Curator Qu said these words, he obviously wanted to tell the two of them. When Young Master Luo heard this, he did not have much of a reaction, instead, it was the Master Feng who frowned, "Little brother, what do you mean by this?"

Yang Bo looked at him, and did not explain, but asked: "I wonder what Master Feng called this kid over for? If it's just a question of my privacy, I'm afraid I won't be able to answer it! "

The Master Feng pointed at the Jade Dancer in his hand, "I just want to know how this one is doing!"

Assistant Curator Qu stood at the side and laughed, "Brother Feng, it's not like we've known each other for a year or so. Can you still not trust my character? This brat just got lucky, and today's auction for this Jade Dancer, was most likely just to pick up the loot, but he did not expect that the value of the Han Jade Dancer s was only twenty or thirty thousand, if he were to spend it, he would lose everything! "

Yang Bo stood at the side and glanced at the Assistant Curator Qu, but his heart was filled with disdain.

Master Feng did not have a good impression of Yang Bo, after hearing his exaggerated tone, he was also half-believing and half-doubting, because Yang Bo had always been calm and unflustered, which was inconsistent with how much Assistant Curator Qu talked about him!

Young Master Luo was impatient, "Master Feng, don't worry about that, we will only ask about the Jade Dancer s today!"
