Chapter 47 Collection stolen from auction

Chapter 47 Collection stolen from auction
The pair of earrings were finally sold for one million. An Zhiyuan was overjoyed and all the unpleasantness from the previous incident was swept away.

The auction is still going on. With Chi Feiwan boosting the atmosphere, the guests are very enthusiastic.

They raised their signs and bid, and were eager to take pictures of the accessories in the display cabinets and add them to their own treasure boxes.

When the auction was halfway through, a staff member came hurriedly behind Chi Feiwan with a panicked look on his face.

"Sister Chi, something bad has happened. I discovered that my kingfisher-jade and jewel-inlaid headpiece is missing."

After saying this, Chi Feiwan's face turned pale, "When did you find out that he was missing?"

"We just discovered it when we were checking the remaining lots. What should we do? The whole set is gone."

The complete set of kingfisher-inlaid and gem-inlaid headpiece includes several pieces of ornaments.

Among them is a hairpin whose head is decorated with bright kingfisher feathers in the shape of a blooming peony, and a dazzling gem is inlaid in the pistil.

There is also a pair of earrings, the main body of which is made of silver, with a butterfly shape made with kingfisher feather craftsmanship hanging below, and the butterfly wings are decorated with sapphires and rubies.

A forehead ornament with an emerald in the middle and a ruyi-shaped frame surrounded by kingfisher feather craftsmanship.

Such a precious item has a starting price of at least 10 million, which is why the staff were panicking.

Chi Feiwan glanced at An Zhiyuan in the corner, and An Zhiyuan also saw a clue from her face, so he quietly went backstage to ask the staff.

"what happen?"

The staff recognized her and told her the truth, "We just checked and found that the kingfisher-inlaid jewel headpiece is missing. Sister Xiaoxiao has already gone to inform Sister Chi."

An Zhiyuan's brows were almost twisted into a line, "Where is your President Fang? Has anyone gone to inform him?"

The staff member was so frightened that he was shaking violently, and he couldn't make up his mind for a moment, "Not yet, we are waiting for Sister Chi to notify us."

The auction is still going on. If Chi Feiwan leaves at this time, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the current guests.

But the next lot is this kingfisher-inlaid gemstone headpiece, which is one of the selling points of this auction. Some wealthy businessmen come just for this lot.

An Zhiyuan was extremely anxious, his brows furrowed, "It's already this late, and you're still waiting for notification. Auctioneer Chi will definitely be unable to get away from the guests, so go and call Mr. Fang over."

Seeing her hesitation, An Zhiyuan lowered his voice and shouted angrily, "Why are you still standing there? Go quickly!"

The little girl came to her senses and hurried to find Fang Weiming.

An Zhiyuan tried hard to calm herself down. The fact that the items were lost not long ago meant that the thief might not have left Xuan Yu Zhai yet. She turned around and gave instructions to several other staff members.

"Go tell auctioneer Chi to put the items at the back first."

"You guys will guard the next items and ensure their safety."

Then she took out her cell phone and planned to call the police. Fang Weiming came in a panic, followed by the staff member who was jogging behind him.

"Miss An, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect something like this to happen at the venue."

"Now is not the time to apologize. The most urgent thing is to call the police immediately and find the thief."

An Zhiyuan unlocked the phone screen, and just as his fingertips touched the buttons, Fang Weiming rushed forward and stopped him.

"Boss Fang, what does this mean?"

She frowned tightly, her eyes full of confusion and anger.

Fang Weiming looked nervous. "Ms. An, please don't call the police yet. If the police come, it will greatly affect the reputation of our auction house. Other peers will definitely publicize the loss of the auction items in order to suppress us. Then no one will dare to come to our auction house to trade."

An Zhiyuan frowned even more tightly, "If we don't call the police, what will we do with the lost items?"

"Don't worry, Miss An. There are cameras in the venue. I will find out who stole the goods and send him to the police station secretly. This way, no one will see him."

Fang Weiming's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his eyes were filled with unconcealable nervousness as he waited for her reply.

An Zhiyuan looked at him, his expression so serious that it seemed like frost could form, "What if we can't find it?" "If we can't find it, our Xuan Yu Zhai is willing to pay double the price. Do you think this is okay?"

Fang Weiming bent down slightly, his tone almost pleading.

An Zhiyuan thought for a moment and felt that he didn't have much to lose.

"Okay! I'll believe you this time."

Fang Weiming was relieved to get the approval. Compared with 20 million, the reputation of the auction house was more important.

Then, he looked at the staff with a serious expression, "Go and tell the security personnel to send someone to guard each staircase passage and bring anyone suspicious to the security room immediately."

"Miss An, would you like to come with me to the security room to check the cameras?"

An Zhiyuan refused, "I won't go. Just check it out and give me the result."

As Fang Weiming left, An Zhiyuan returned to the venue and sat down, nodding slightly at Chi Feiwan on the stage.

Chi Feiwan tried her best to stay calm and continued to bid on the next item. As the number of items to be auctioned decreased one by one, her calmness gradually turned into panic.

Because no one has yet informed her that the lost kingfisher-inlaid jewel headpiece has been found.

An Zhiyuan sat in the corner, his frown never relaxing.

Since she agreed to Fang Weiming's request, she would keep her promise and not call the police. Now all she could do was wait.

The auction was coming to an end, with only one lot left.

Zhao Ruohan, who was sitting in the guest seats, suddenly stood up, folded her arms across her chest, and looked at Chi Feiwan.

"Didn't they say there were some good items in this auction? I've seen so many, but I don't think they're that good!"

There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone, which made Chi Feiwan look unpleasant.

But as an auctioneer, she suppressed her displeasure and slightly raised the corners of her lips.

"Every item in our auction house is a good item. Almost all of the items this time are worth three or four million. Could it be that they are not pleasing to this young lady?"

Zhao Ruohan looked disdainful and sneered, "Three or four million is nothing good, I'm talking about 10 or 20 million."

Lu Zifeng sat next to her and gently pulled the corner of her dress, telling her not to be so arrogant.

Last time, that bitch An Zhiyuan made me lose more than two million dollars. It hurts just thinking about it.

Now there is not much liquid funds on the company's books for her to squander, but she still doesn't know how to restrain herself.

However, he didn't know that she did this for a purpose.

An Zhiyuan sat quietly in the corner, waiting to see what she was going to do.

Zhao Ruohan shook off Lu Zifeng's hand, lowered her eyes and glared at him fiercely, warning him to behave himself and not ruin her good deeds.

She took out the flyer that the auction house had printed earlier and said, "I saw a jadeite and gemstone headpiece on it, but it's almost over and we haven't seen it yet. Do you think we can't afford it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the buyers were suddenly in an uproar.

The flyer was released a few days ago, and those present had seen it before.

Now, led by Chi Feiwan, everyone was so excited about bidding that they almost forgot about this item.

After her reminder, everyone recalled it.
