While the manhunt is in progress

Chapter 496 Stimulate Consumption
I saw Nathan sitting in his seat with a gloomy expression, while the assistant sitting next to him looked anxious, as if he had encountered something difficult.

Seeing this, Yue Ningsong and the others breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Song He. Chen Cong, who was next to him, even secretly gave him a thumbs up.

Last night, Song He asked Liu Yun to get the customer information of the bank under Nathan's name, and sent them a text message at midnight. The presumed content was that Nathan embezzled depositors' deposits to participate in an auction to bid for precious artworks.

In the text message, Song He also added a lot of guiding words with strong hints, so that many people who received the text message thought that if they did not withdraw money, their deposits would be lost.

As a result, the bank under Nathan's name received a large number of withdrawal applications in the early morning!
And this phenomenon is definitely a disaster that must be seriously dealt with for banks that use most of their deposits for loan purposes.

Because once the amount of withdrawals exceeds the bank's liquidity, the bank's risk of bankruptcy will increase dramatically!

Fortunately, the people who were able to be bewitched by Song He in such a short period of time did not have large personal deposits. Coupled with the bank's active response, the situation was finally under control.

However, although the momentum of these people's withdrawals has been curbed, it has not been completely stopped.

Therefore, Nathan had no choice but to put part of the funds used for the auction into the bank's liquidity.

Looking at Nathan's expression, it was obvious that a lot of money had been put in, which made Yue Ningsong and the others even happier.

Facing everyone's admiration, Song He nodded with a smile, looking calm and clear, but his heart was bleeding: What is that guy Liuyun printing, he needs so many high-grade materials!Are you burning money?
"Ah!"

Far away in Qin Xia, Liu Yun, who was busy sitting in front of the computer, suddenly sneezed, and immediately remembered Song He's panic-stricken appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "I rely on technology to make a living! If you have the ability, go for it! Haha!"

After all, he wiped the sweat from his forehead due to the high temperature in the room, and looked back at the running 3D printer, which occupied most of the living room, his heart was burning.

Suddenly, there was a vibration from the mobile phone. Liu Yun guessed who was calling and pressed the speakerphone directly: "Brother Song, I've already done it, and I can do it anytime."

Song He, who was sitting in the auction venue, whispered into the phone: "You will take over when the communication is connected. If you need to increase the price, I will knock on the phone twice."

"Understood! Don't worry!" Liu Yun readily agreed, then said after a pause, "There are two pieces of news that I think I need to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Song He asked.

"First of all, it's about Nathan's collection." Liu Yun casually sent an electronic folder to Song He, and said very quickly: "After I hacked into the surveillance at his home, I found that there was an official auction in his collection." and acquisition records accounted for only about [-]%."

"I don't know much about the rest. I searched and found that they are similar to some tomb objects. The drawings have been sent to you. You can judge for yourself."

Song He Wenyan's face turned serious: "Understood, what else?"

Liu Yun continued: "Secondly, in the morning, I found out that the list of people participating in the auction had changed, and the name of one of the bidders became William Bedmond."

"I don't know what relationship this person has with that Nathan, but I feel the need to check. It turns out that there is very little information on him, no official images, and no parents."

"And what's even weirder is that this person has been dead for 15 years according to official records."

Hearing this, Song He's expression became more than solemn. A large number of questions instantly came to his mind, giving him a very strange feeling in his heart.

"Understood, I will pay attention." Song He, who was puzzled, decided to adjust the plan on the spot according to the actual situation: "You send me the information and bidding number of the person he replaced, and then wait Just raise the price with my news."

While maintaining the call, Song He carefully looked at the photo sent by Liu Yun, and then searched carefully in the auction venue, and soon found a man in his thirties, holding the number plate of the person replaced by William, His eyes glanced in Nathan's direction from time to time.

"Is it the enemy?" Song He saw the undisguised hostility in the man's eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: "It's interesting."

Not long after, the auction entered the countdown stage. Several staff members responsible for online real-time bidding quickly contacted foreign bidders and connected to the network communication.

After one of the employees connected to the communication, he briefly explained a few words and then stopped talking. He didn't even know that the bidder on the opposite side was not the client he was in charge of contacting at all!

As for the customer who was waiting for the communication to be connected at an unknown location, he suddenly received an apology call from the auction house for postponing the auction. Before he could question him, the other party hung up the phone in a hurry and became uncontactable.

But after a while, the host of the auction took the time to step onto the stage, said a few host speeches that exaggerated the atmosphere, and announced the start of the auction.

Immediately after the auctioneer came to the stage, after he stood still on the auction stage, the first lot was pushed onto the booth by the staff.

It wasn't until this time that all the bidders in the venue really cheered up and listened carefully to the auctioneer explaining the bidding rules.

Song He, who was sitting under the stage, looked at the exquisite paintings on the booth, recalling what Yue Ningsong said yesterday.

"Generally, in order to maximize the overall revenue of the auction, the auction house will do everything possible to increase the transaction rate and arouse the emotions of the bidders."

"The most commonly used method is to put a few popular lots with a high probability of transaction at the front."

Thinking about it, Song He smiled, and thought: Sure enough, there is a big difference between the real auction and the film and television fiction.

"The base price of this "Fox Hill" is [-] pounds, and each increase is [-] pounds. All bidders are invited to bid."

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, a well-dressed lady lightly raised the number plate in her hand, and the auctioneer immediately reported the lady's number neatly.

Immediately afterwards, several bidders raised their placards one after another, raising the price of the painting to nearly [-] pounds in the blink of an eye!

Song He watched the audience silently, and soon found a man with persistent eyes. While secretly saying sorry in his heart, he tapped twice on his phone lightly!
A few minutes later, most of the previous bidders stopped raising their placards. Only the imposter Liu Yun and the man with persistent eyes were left to bid in turn.

Suddenly, after the persistent-eyed man gritted his teeth and stared at the price once, Song He didn't tap his phone again, and let the "Fox Hill" be sold at a price of [-] Ding pounds!
The auctioneer on the podium dropped the hammer excitedly to announce the deal, and then announced with a smile that he would start bidding on the second lot.

……

Boom!
"Deal! Congratulations to Bidder No. [-] for winning the lot "Shepherd Girl."

"The following is the No. 11 lot of this auction. The Qin Xia Northern Song Dynasty porcelain, the Northern Song Dynasty official kiln oval washing, the starting price is 300 million Ding pounds, and the price will increase by [-] Ding pounds each time. All bidders are invited to bid."

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, there was a burst of discussion mixed with low exclamations in the venue!

Yue Ningsong and the others looked at each other, and gave Song He the look of a chicken thief!
