...

"Mr. Chen, if Jarvis caused you any trouble before, I apologize on his behalf."

"You don't need to apologize, Your Highness Hepburn. We're just competing fairly, but his methods are open to question. I didn't raise the gun not because I was cowardly, but because I was kind to the enemy, otherwise he wouldn't be standing here intact. "

Jarvis was a little angry, but when he thought of this guy single-handedly beating several well-trained, experienced and fully armed mercenaries to no avail, he felt a chill in his heart. At that time, they couldn't even find any trace of Chen Ergou, and all the electronic equipment failed. If Chen Ergou really picked up the gun and fought back, the result would be hard to say...

Margaret Hepburn glanced at the two thoughtfully, "Jarvis, you go out first."

Jarvis was stunned for a moment, his face was very ugly, but he still walked out respectfully, and stood by the door waiting with another bodyguard.

"Mr. Chen..."

"Princess can call me by my name directly, hero, this is the English name I gave myself."

Margaret smiled, "Great name."

"Mr. Chen, I'm here this time to buy back one of Rotegler's relics. It was once in the treasure brochure, but it's not included in this auction now."

Chen Ergou understood, "I don't know which item it is, I have indeed intercepted some of it for collection, and some are still in repair state because of some damage, so they have not been exhibited."

Margaret said lightly, "It's a compass, a very ordinary compass." She described the shape of the item, a piece of green gold, with various animal carvings on the surface of the compass, but no pointer.

Chen Ergou's heart skipped a beat, and his expression remained calm, as if he was trying to remember if he had this item.

The "green gold" color should be very conspicuous, but he has no impression at all. I quickly contacted Goudan in my heart, "Is there something wrong? Goudan, do you have any impression of this compass?"

Goudan's electronic eyes flickered quickly, "I didn't find the compass. But I found something that seemed to have a hidden compartment, which hindered the scanning."

"Secret space... are you sure?" Chen Ergou was furious.

"75% probability. Whether there is really a hidden space still needs to be confirmed."

"With such a high probability, there must be something tricky. Why couldn't it be discovered at the time?"

Goudan looked at him contemptuously, "Without this incident, the probability of discovering the hidden compartment is 0!"

"Okay, you win. Which one?"

"In the basement, among the Indian gold statues."

Chen Ergou's initial knowledge of the auction process was all derived from online novels.

Later, when I really came into contact with the auction industry, I realized that this was not the case.

For example, for really good things, brochures must be issued in advance or publicity should be done well, so as to attract more people in need to bid for the auction and increase the price. In most novels, great things suddenly appear in the auction, and only a few It's completely unreasonable to take an individual auction. Unless the person hosting the auction is an idiot, otherwise it will definitely not appear in various novels, and the auction will leave suspense and surprises.

The auction house sells an unrecognizable item at a very low price, and only the protagonist can recognize that it is actually a fragment of an artifact, an egg laid by a mythical beast, a branch of the World Tree, and other extremely valuable items.

For this kind of routine, it generally does not exist in reality.

Auction houses are very rich. If the value of an item cannot be appraised, it will definitely not be unknown, so it will be sold at a low price. Basically, it will be collected by yourself and waited for someone who is capable of appraising it. And this kind of auction usually happens The following plot: "Auctioneer: We don't know the value of this item, it only sells for 1w, the protagonist: 1w. The crowd who don't know the truth: this person is sb, bought this for 1w...then the protagonist is complacent".

Chen Ergou despised the routines in the novel when he recalled them, but he didn't expect that someone would actually come to the auction today to pick up the leaks.

Fortunately, luckily, this item is still at home.

Chen Ergou received the message and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I'm sorry I can't help you. It seems that I don't have such a compass among my belongings."

Margaret was stunned, she didn't expect this kind of result, "Are you sure?"

"I am very sure."

Chen Ergou said: "After the treasure was brought back, Sotheby's expert appraiser conducted a special appraisal, including a silver coin with a clear grade. If it is green gold, I can't be unimpressed."

Margaret hesitated slightly, but said, "Mr. Chen can think carefully about whether it is possible to hide in a secret compartment."

Chen Ergou decided in his heart, "It's possible, but there are so many items. I can't check each item one by one, maybe it will be among the items in this auction."

"No more~"

Before Chen Ergou finished speaking, he was interrupted by the princess. "Not one of these things."

"In this case, Mr. Chen has an unfeeling request, can I visit your private collection?"

Chen Ergou didn't answer this time, he sat across from him, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it leisurely.

Margaret was stunned, and then realized that she was too eager. She received an elite education since she was a child. As a princess, she must have been exposed to a lot of things. Quickly adjusted, and looked at him with a blank and disappointed expression, "Is there anything difficult?"

"Miss Margaret," he no longer called the princess, "how about we be open and honest. What's in the green and gold compass? If you want to pick up on me, then this meeting can come to an end. "

"You are overthinking." Margaret's chest heaved sharply, as if annoyed at his rudeness, but her face was still reserved, "It was just something that my grandfather carried with him when he went to sea. Items, that's all."

"Grandfather again, should Miss Margaret ask your grandfather if he is willing to take the blame. I am afraid that Rotegler is not Jarvis's grandfather."

Chen Ergou said: "There are quite a few tulip emblem knight full body armor in the treasure. The armor is not empty, and the traces of bone decay inside are not like three hundred years ago, maybe earlier. Let me guess... ...Around 1500, right? When the Spanish fleet was criss-crossing the sea, the Tulip Principality sent troops to the sea and even boarded this Spanish galleon. Why?"

"A mysterious mission or a bigger treasure? I'm more inclined to the latter, Miss Margaret, what do you think?" A pair of deep eyes stared at hers.

Goudan's voice kept echoing in his mind: "The heartbeat is accelerating, the endocrine is accelerating, and the analysis may guess the key."

No matter how good her self-restraint is, that's the end of it, Margaret stopped acting, she returned to her arrogant self and gave him a glare, got up and snorted coquettishly, "Hmph, let's talk about it when you find the compass."

With a flick of her long hair, she walked out without turning her head.

"Find me and smash it."

"you!"

Margaret came back and said angrily: "Rude man, despicable guy, he is not a gentleman at all."

It seemed to be very angry, but it was full of these few words of abuse over and over again, which was like drizzle to Chen Ergou. Goudan is recording a video, he really wants to quietly put this video on the Internet, it is estimated that it will be very popular.

"Thank you for the compliment~"

Chen Ergou laughed, thinking that this is what an 18-year-old girl should look like. Maybe this is her true face, a savage princess, "So I guessed right?"

"Hmph, for what team, it's a big mistake!"

Margaret raised her finger to reprimand, and said very annoyedly: "Do you think you're smart? You're just self-righteous. Actually, it's okay to tell you. Anyway, you can't find it without pointers."
