Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

Kuroba Kaito deliberately put on a surprised expression, "Is he some big shot?"

"No," Chi Feichi knew that not saying anything would only aggravate Kuroba Kaito's curiosity, so he revealed a little bit of information, "It should be someone from the Yashiro family. Our two families have business competition, and the other party probably wants to test it out. I."

"So that's it..." Kuroba Kaito nodded, remembering Chi Feichi's words just now, 'I know, don't make trouble,' and he immediately understood what Chi Feichi meant.

It's not that his cheap brother doesn't want to conflict with the other party, but he already has his own plan and tells him not to interfere.

He is not interested in those business feuds. Since Brother Fei Chi has his own plans, he will not get involved, lest he accidentally ruin Brother Fei Chi's plan.

"Brother Fei Chi, why did you tell Kaito not to cause trouble?" Nakamori Aoko was confused, "Does Kaito want to do something bad?"

"It's nothing," Chi Feichi said calmly, "What the other party did was a bit provocative. I'm worried that Kaito will find a quarrel with him."

Nakamori Aoko nodded, "Actually, I also think the other party is very annoying, but it's really not good to argue..."

Koizumi Hongzi drank tea silently.

There are five people here, but it seems that only Qingzi doesn't understand certain situations at all.

…

Lounge No. 8.

Yashiro Enzaburo felt relieved when he saw that the jar had been photographed by him.

Although he was a little surprised that the adult would suddenly give up the bid, it was better for him to spend more money than to let the adult spend more money.

And in this way, his mission progress can be regarded as advancing one level.

The assistant fell silent when he saw Yashiro Enzaburo asking him to bid. He felt a little uneasy and said, "President..."

"It's okay," Yashiro Enzaburo said with an unperturbed expression, "Come back next time."

The assistant breathed a sigh of relief and felt a bit of admiration in his heart.

As expected of the president, he is able to neither be impatient nor angry at times like this. His demeanor is extraordinary.

Moreover, the president’s attitude of not being upset at all when faced with setbacks and bravely choosing to try again is worth learning from him...

Um? Wait, the president said ‘come back next time’? In other words, they will continue to cause trouble later?

Is it really okay to provoke others over and over again?

…

As the auction continued, five more items were auctioned off.

Feimo Shota successfully photographed the little monkey stone statue, and also photographed a sapphire as a gift for Mizuno Yoshikazu. He easily completed today's auction tasks and sat in the lounge drinking tea and watching a show.

When the golden snake statue, which was suspected to be a collection of other magic families, began to be auctioned, Yashiro Enzaburo asked his assistant to bid during the peak bidding period. Just like when Chi Feichi auctioned the jar, the bid was four to five million yuan higher than the estimated transaction price, which made The wave of bids on the floor subsided.

Koshizui Nanatsuki deleted the price increase figures that had been entered into the tablet and cast an inquiring look at Chi Feichi.

How to come this time?

"Add 10 million," Chi Feichi said without thinking, "If the other side continues to add, no matter how much he adds, we will add 10 million each time until we buy it."

"Ah?" Aoko Nakamori exclaimed softly, stretched out her hand and tugged at the corner of Kuroba Kaito's clothes next to her, and asked in a low voice, "Kaito, wouldn't this cost a lot more money?"

"Don't worry about it, Brother Fei Chi has sense," Kuroba Kaito teased Fei Chi with apple chunks from the fruit platter, strung the apple chunks on strings and dazzled Fei Chi in front of Fei Chi, "We can just watch the fun, Fei Chi , the challenge of how many apples can be eaten in one bite begins..."

Nakamori Aoko: "..."

Kaito really wasn't worried at all.

On the side, Koshizui Nanatsuki directly added ten million to the information, and then sent out the new quotation.

The increase figures and new auction prices instantly popped up on the big screen, immediately triggering a murmur in the room.

The auction has not yet reached the later stage, and the high-value auction items have not been delivered yet. Everyone is relatively restrained in raising the price. The most is one million or one million upwards. No one expected that someone would suddenly increase the price by ten million.

Moreover, the golden snake statue is only the size of a palm. Even if it is a well-preserved antique, even if the coiled golden snake is made very exquisitely and its eyes are inlaid with two rubies, its value is at most just over 80 million yen. Now someone adds it Added 10 million...

Do you want to show that you are bound to win?

"Price increase in Lounge 2..." The host turned his back to the big screen and carefully confirmed the price on the handheld tablet, "Ten million yen! The current auction price is 93.5 million..."

The mentality of the guests on the first floor instantly changed from 'surprised' to 'calmly watching the show'.

It turns out that Lounge No. 2 and Lounge No. 8 are having trouble again.

The people who can stay in the lounge on the second floor are all members of large financial groups. It doesn't seem strange to spend tens of millions more for fighting spirit.

The person in charge of the program team of Rimai TV Station stood on the sidelines, staring at the big screen with bright eyes, and kept muttering, "The program is effective, the program is effective..."

In the lounge on No. 12, Tomoko Suzuki looked at the price increase on the big screen and thought, "He is indeed a fox, he is not easy to bully."

"Yes, it's about changing positions for offense and defense," Suzuki Shiro said with a smile, "Now it depends on how Enzaburo responds."

"What are you talking about?" Suzuki Sonoko looked out the window curiously, "For offensive and defensive positions, does it mean Brother Chi and Mr. Nobuzaburo of the Yashiro family?"

"People in the Yashiro family should know that Fei Chi keeps a pet snake, and they probably guess that Fei Chi is probably interested in the golden snake statue," Suzuki Tomoko said with a smile, "Mr. Enzaburo must have deliberately bid 8,000 yuan before Fei Chi." Three and a half million, this price is a little higher than the estimated auction price, which will make people who want to pick up leaks immediately give up, thus eliminating most people, and the remaining small number of people will increase the price by one or two million at most. I will continue to argue with Mr. Enzaburo. If Fei Chi does not bid, he will not be at a loss if he buys the golden snake statue for more than 80 million. But if Fei Chi bids after him, then his last bid provoked Fei Chi. Wouldn’t it be even if it’s too late?”

"W-What," Suzuki Sonoko was speechless, "How can this be considered a tie?"

"Yes, this is not even in the eyes of both parties, but it is an equal in the eyes of outsiders. This forced equalization may make Fei Chi feel aggrieved," Suzuki Shiro said to Suzuki Sonoko in a gentle tone, "Yansaburo is still deliberately provoking Fei Chi's anger."

"But if I raise the price by ten million, it will pose a problem for Mr. Enzaburo," Tomoko Suzuki continued. "If Mr. Enzaburo doesn't increase the price, it will appear that he has no courage to accept the challenge of his younger generation and lacks courage. After all, one or two Ten million is nothing to the Yashiro family. If Mr. Enzaburo increases the price...only adding one million will weaken his side's momentum. It would be better not to increase the price. But if Mr. Enzaburo increases the price by ten million, When Fei Chi gives up the bid, he will bid for something again at a premium of 20 million. "

"Then everyone will feel that he has been tricked by Fei Chi again and suffered losses at the hands of younger generations twice in a row. It is very embarrassing," Suzuki Shiro said with a helpless smile, "Although others will not laugh at him in front of him, But when talking about 20 million during this period, people present will definitely think of the two losses he suffered today. "

"Mr. Yanzaburo originally made a move against Fei Chi, but now he has to take Fei Chi's move. He has to carefully consider whether he should increase the price. That's why your father said that they have switched positions of offense and defense... "Tomoko Suzuki saw the increase in price figures on the big screen, and was stunned for a moment, then reminded Shiro Suzuki with a smile, "It's broken."

"The price for Lounge No. 8 is increased by 18 million yen," the host on the first floor stage shouted, "The current auction price is..."

Suzuki Shiro nodded in approval, "Enzaburo's courage is not bad."

Suzuki Sonoko looked at the refreshments on the table even more speechlessly.

She treated the auction as an evening tea party, but unexpectedly everyone started acting out the Three Kingdoms next to her.
