Chapter 1279 What's inside
A warning to the French for unknown reasons was issued, and the auction continued, that was only Victor was still considering why Yang Yi’s warning was.m
Why did Yang Yi talk? Because he had to talk.
With his face covered, and people like Talta can change their gait and physical characteristics at any time, Yang Yi can't tell whether Talta is among this group of people.
So in other words, Talta should be able to recognize him.
Yang Yi was not interested in these blood-carried gold because he didn't like it, and he was very rich, so there was no need to bother to ask for anything here.
As for those cultural relics, Yang Yi was even less interested.
It’s not that Yang Yi is not interested in the remains of history, but that he does not like to plunder other people’s history as his own collection, especially anti-social and anti-human things like Ace, which have some fragments left after destroying the remains of the treasures of human civilization.
The auction was actually going on very quickly because there were not many things sold in this package, but Yang Yi secretly observed that these things were sold for some money, and all of them were about 5 million US dollars.
Behind the mere five million US dollars are the unjust souls of countless people, and the destroyed Mosul Museum.
Everything is sold at piles, and the price is definitely what makes these merchants who come from afar at risk make money, but they won’t make as much money as dozens of times. Basically, the things obtained from auctions can make half of the money.
Yang Yi did not take action, which surprised Hazard. He finally couldn't help but whisper: "Are you not interested in the things here?"
Yang Yi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, I'm not particularly interested."
Hazard whispered, "So are we leaving?"
Yang Yi shook his head and whispered: "No, wait a little longer, I am more interested in personal transactions."
At this moment, when the last box was about to be auctioned, a slightly fat man finally took action. As soon as this man participated in the auction, Yang Yi knew that he was Talta.
Just as Yang Yi spoke to reveal his identity, Talta spoke just to let Yang Yi know that he was here.
Talta offered the price twice, but he did not get the last box. However, now he and Yang Yi both knew each other's existence.
The auction has ended, and the host shouted: "Everyone can continue to stay here. Our soldiers will maintain order. As long as you don't leave here, you can ensure safety. Our soldiers will come to sell trophys. This time may last for a long time. I only remind you one thing, that is, please try to ensure that the transaction is fair. When you make profits, don't forget the rewards that our soldiers deserve. Okay, I'm done."
It was a very short speech, and it sounded quite generous, but these plunderers naturally would not pay much attention to the stolen things.
Soldiers came in, and there were still many people coming. The participants of the auction became acquirers. They scattered and began to talk to the soldiers alone and try to acquire what they had.
The auction became a big market, allowing its followers to cash in on what they had snatched. This is one of the benefits of Ace to soldiers.
Yang Yi and Hazard began to hang out in the crowd casually, and the transaction started in the most primitive way. When someone took out what they were going to sell, someone would bid forward. If both of them were satisfied, the transaction would end soon.
Yang Yi was secretly paying attention to Talta, and Talta was secretly paying attention to him.
Hazard's purchase is not very high, and Yang Yi doesn't think he can buy what he wants here, but Yang Yi is looking for an opportunity to talk to Talta, so that it will not be too convenient for Hazard to be by his side.
But if it is inconvenient, it is inconvenient. Yang Yi felt that there was no reason to abandon Hazard, so he would not find a way to put Hazard aside and contact Talta. He had the means to communicate with Talta under Hazard's nose.
As more and more people were gradually increasing, Yang Yi seemed to be aimlessly wandering around the abandoned shopping mall, and often approached an Ace soldier to see what was in his hand.
It was originally natural, but the two things that Yang Yi had in his hand caught his attention.
A soldier was holding a watch in his hand. Omega's old watch was not very valuable, but another thing in his hand that looked like gold attracted Yang Yi's attention.
Gold products, cross-shaped, look like a cross, but not the common Latin cross shape, but the Greek cross, that is, the regular cross.
Although it is golden, it should look like a box, because the cross-shaped metal object is slightly larger than a person's palm. If it is solid, then the box is too heavy.
Yang Yi's heart beat a little, why? It's not just because the box looks like gold, but because the shape of the box is very similar to what Aaron told him to be looking for.
They are all regular cross shapes and are about the same size.
"How much?"
Yang Yi went up and asked the price directly, and the man holding the box immediately said: "100,000 US dollars."
Yang Yi stretched out his hand and said, "Can I take a look?"
The cross was handed over to Yang Yi's hand. It was indeed very light, but it was also a bit heavy. There were some simple patterns on the box. As soon as Yang Yi got it, Brian whispered: "The Greek cross was a symbol used by early Christians when they were persecuted, but the pattern on this box, well, is more like the style of the medieval period, especially this mark. Yes, this is a work from the Crusade..."
Yang Yi took a breath. The box was lighter and there should be nothing inside. He observed it and found that there was indeed a gap in the middle, and the closed one was not very tight.
The box was opened and it was empty inside.
Although he felt that the possibility was not high, Yang Yi still smiled at the Ace soldier in front of him, and then he smiled and said, "Where is the thing inside?"
The soldier rubbed his mouth, and then he nodded and said, "The things inside are worthless, I took them out."
Yang Yi said without hesitation: "I will give you 100,000 US dollars, but I want the things inside."
"I have to look for it."
"What does the thing inside look like, why do you take it out?"
The soldier had not spoken yet, but someone next to him shouted: "Where is the thing inside?"
Yang Yi turned his head and looked at it. The Frenchman also came to him, and then reached out to take the box from his hand, which seemed very urgent, and he said again: "Where is the thing inside?"
