Chapter 1150 Almost Passed

What is the origin of this head portrait? Yang Cheng can't explore it for the time being, but he is puzzled. How did Huma or Mrs. Lazedon know his connection with Egypt?

He doesn't believe in coincidences, and this is 120% not a coincidence

On the stage, the auctioneer Brown, who was making an introduction with a strong voice, didn't know what Yang Cheng was thinking. He was now working hard to get off to a good start. Deciding the success of the fundraising dinner also further affects Brown's reputation as an auctioneer.

If an auctioneer can't achieve the expected goal well, his evaluation will immediately drop by several percentage points, and his career will be hit hard, especially in the occasions where VIPs gather, so Brown is working extra hard.

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the requirements of the auction provider, the auction reserve price for this head of Amon is US$3 million, and each increase should not be less than US$100,000. Now, please start bidding."

Brown's high-pitched voice spread throughout the hall, but as soon as he finished speaking, there was no scene of scrambling to bid, but fell into silence.

Everyone whispered to each other, as if they were very interested in this lot, but no one bid. At this moment, Brown's heart went cold.

But he still kept his smile very well, not letting outsiders see his panic.

"Is there any bid? This is one of the few treasures handed down from the mysterious Egypt. Don't miss this opportunity."

Brown's bewitchment still had no effect, and the scene became more and more silent, and now there were no whispers.

'Is the first lot going to fail? ’ Brown scanned the darkness under the stage nervously.

At this time, Huma, who was standing in the shadow on the side of the stage, took a slight step forward, showing half of his face, and winked at Yang Cheng.

But Yang Cheng didn't know if it was intentional or if he really didn't see it, so he wasn't moved at all.

It is the auctioneer's responsibility not to make the scene awkward. Even though the current situation is difficult to deal with, Brown still showed the quality of a white glove, and said loudly, "I know everyone is unwilling to bid out of respect for the Egyptian Pharaoh. , but since this statue appears here, it has already proved something, it can be collected by private individuals.

Think about it, when the head of Amon God appears in your private collection, and the scene of being envied and jealous by relatives and friends, it will be a sense of accomplishment. "

Yang Cheng turned a deaf ear to all this, and now his mind is full of thinking about one thing, why do Tutankhamun and God Amon look so similar?

Ever since he came into contact with the mysteries of ancient Egypt, Yang Cheng had nothing to do and read a lot of historical documents about ancient Egypt, many of which were obtained by Carson through secret channels. It was these materials that helped Yang Cheng in the shortest possible time. I learned about ancient Egypt within a short period of time, and the more I understood, the more frightened I became. Ancient Egypt is too mysterious, and this mystery stems from the fear of the unknown.

It was precisely this that made him fall into deep confusion after seeing the head of God Amon.

Amon, the main god of Thebes in ancient Egypt, became the main god of the country because of the rise of Thebes. The holy beasts were geese and rams.

During the Eleventh Dynasty of ancient Egypt, Thebes became the capital of ancient Egypt, and the main god of Thebes, Amon, quickly became the main god of all Egypt, replacing the position of the sun god, Ra.

Tutankhamun even ordered the whole country to believe in only one main god, Amon,

But the worship of Ra did not disappear because of this, and Amon and Ra merged into one, becoming Amun-Ra, especially when he was "king of the gods".

In ancient Egypt, the rulership of heaven belonged to the sun god, and Amon was the supreme god, so logically speaking, Amon was Ra, and Amon was called "the king of the throne and the two lands", or more proudly called As the "king of the gods", the pharaoh in the world is regarded as the son of Amon-Ra. From this perspective, it is not surprising that Tutankhamun and Amon are very similar.

Huma seemed unable to wait any longer, and stood a few steps forward again, winking at Yang Cheng frequently, the hard work paid off, and finally Yang Cheng saw it, and returned a calm expression, and then continued to sit on the table muttering Then, the number plate in his hand was dangling, but he didn't mean to raise it.

The reason why Yang Cheng seemed so calm was because he was convinced of the charm of this statue that everyone present must be excited, but everyone was waiting and watching, wanting to buy this Egyptian national treasure cultural relic at the lowest price.

Moreover, today's auction is private, and the confidentiality measures are very good. Even if the auction is taken away, there is no need to worry about being exposed and being approached by the Egyptian government.

Two minutes later, when Brown was about to give up, finally he did not meet Yang Cheng's expectations, and some people raised their hands impatiently.

Brown was overjoyed, and shouted excitedly, "Thank you, Mr. No. 77 for your generosity, and completed the first bid tonight, which is 3 million US dollars. Thanks again, Mr. No. 77 bid 3 million US dollars for the head of Amon God."

This time the bidding was like opening the valve of the floodgate. Brown was almost overwhelmed by the successive bids, but this kind of busyness was happy.

"No. 57 bid 3.1 million~"

"No. 18 on the left, the beautiful lady bids 3.3 million, thank you, this number is as beautiful as you."

"3.8 million, God, this is a wonderful number, thank you No. 111, is there any more bids? 3.8 million once~"

Brown perfectly controlled the rhythm of the bidding. When the price reached a certain point, he consciously slowed down his speech to give the bidders time to think. Millions of dollars are not just a few dollars, so you don’t even have to think about spending it.

The scene fell silent again, but this kind of silence will not make people panic. Brown held the small hammer very calmly, and while speaking encouraging words, he scanned the audience with radar-like eagle eyes to ensure that he would not miss any card raising moment.

The silence didn't last long this time, and soon someone set off a second wave of bidding for GC.

"4 million, thanks to this lady in the second row to my right, 4.2 million, can I hear 4.2 million?"

Before the words were finished, Yang Cheng finally made a move, and raised the number plate with a smile.

Although he didn't say a word, he, who was in the center of the front row, immediately became the focus of the audience.

Brown shouted, "Let's give warm applause to No. 2 Mr. Yang, thank you very much, 4.2 million, 4.2 million once~"

Seeing Yang Cheng make a move, Huma breathed a sigh of relief visibly, retreated back into the shadows, and continued to be her invisible person.

"Can I still hear 4.3 million?" Brown chanted further.

Just a few seconds later, someone in the back row held up the number plate and directly bid the price, "US$4.5 million~"
