"Ah."

Mo Ling had no intention of hiding it.

In fact, he had never seen that painting, but the artist's name impressed him deeply.

Couch Tellis?

Isn’t he just an amateur painter who is good at using spices?

A year ago, he happened to pass by a gallery.

Seeing many people admiring a painting, out of curiosity, he walked in and took a second look.

However, he was born with an extremely keen sense of smell and suddenly smelled the strange aroma on the painting.

Observing the abnormal expressions on the faces of the people around him, he immediately took off the painting and threw it into the fish tank nearby.

Those people suddenly woke up from a dream. You looked at me and I looked at you. They didn’t understand why they were wasting so much time in a gallery!

After those people left, Mo Ling used some tricks to finally pry the gallery owner's mouth open.

Couch Tellis knows entry-level oil painting and is good at imitation and copying.

Of course, his other identity that is least known to outsiders is that he is a master of fragrance mixing and making.

Compared to painting, Couch Tellis’s spices are second to none in the world.

The painting that he saw through and threw into the water had a special layer of spices smeared on it.

Anyone who appreciates it at close range will be addicted to it because of the fragrance, rather than truly appreciating the painting itself.

Afterwards, Mo Ling specifically asked Mo Wu to investigate Kuchi Tellis.

It turned out that all of Couch Tellis's paintings used this trick.

Even his title of oil painting master was obtained by deception.

What’s strange is that Couch Tellis has been in the painting world for more than ten years, and no one has found anything wrong with him...

Mo Ling prides himself on being a smart businessman, so of course he would not waste such valuable "intelligence" in vain.

In less than three days, Couch Tellis was under his thumb...

Qin Li didn't expect Mo Ling to be so honest and didn't know how to answer the question.

"I didn't expect the paintings of amateur fools to be so valuable. If I had known better, I would have bought a few more to earn some pocket money."

amateur? A fool?

"You mean Couch Tellis is an amateur painter?"

Qin Li was stunned for a few seconds.

"Want to know the reason?" Mo Ling squinted his eyebrows, and his deep and hoarse voice was very tempting, "Call me Ling, and I'll tell you the answer."

"No need." Qin Li refused readily, "Curiosity killed the cat. I want to live a few more years."

Anyway, as long as she wants to know, there is a way to find out.

"Let us congratulate guest No. 15 for acquiring this painting "Two Dragons Playing with Pearls" at a price of million, and also thank this guest for his kind deeds..."

On the stage, the fierce auction continued.

"Ding--"

At this time, Qin Li's cell phone suddenly lit up.

She unlocked it immediately, glanced at the messages on the screen, and raised a faint smile on her lips.

That warm smile went straight into Mo Ling's eyes.

If he could, he would use everything he had to keep her smile at this moment.

"The last lot of the finale of this auction is about to appear. I wonder if everyone is looking forward to it as much as I am?"

Suddenly there was a faint layer of mist on the field.

It's dry ice!

Qin Li saw through the mystery of the venue layout at a glance.

Dry ice combined with various lights throughout the venue created a mysterious atmosphere for the entire venue, instantly pushing it to the commanding heights.

Everyone's eyes are focused on the painting that slowly rises from the bottom of the stage.

"Everyone must be very curious. All the paintings in the front are bigger than the last. So, if this painting is arranged at the end, wouldn't it go to heaven?"

There was a lot of cheering laughter coming from below.

"Actually, that's not the case. These paintings are ranked in no particular order."

The host's eagerness to survive relieved some of the tension in the venue.

"Of course, the author of this painting has a small background, but he is a rising star. Some people say that he is a dark horse in the painting world, while others say that only those who know how to paint his paintings can Despite the appreciation, some people speculate that the author is actually...not a human being."

The host deliberately lowered his voice and glanced at the crowd mysteriously.

After that, he smiled again and put on a serious look: "Only with noise can there be popularity, and with controversy can there be a future. This painter has only five paintings published so far. Three of them are on display. In the museum of country A. The painting we are exhibiting today is his pioneering work."

"As for him, he has never appeared in public. To this day, no one is lucky enough to see his true face. With such a mysterious person and such a unique painting, aren't you excited?"

"Heartbeat! Heartbeat!"

"Want! Want!"

The response from the audience rose and fell.

Seeing that the time was right, Lin Yao, who was standing in a dark corner under the stage, made a gesture to the host, who immediately understood it.

"Okay, then I announce that the starting price for this painting "Silence" is 10 million. Now, the bidding begins!"

"Eleven million!"

"Thirteen million!"

"Fifteen million!"

"Twenty million!"

The host had no time to announce the number of the guests bidding because everyone's enthusiasm was too high.

"Twenty-five million!"

"thirty million!"

"Forty million!"

"Fifty million!"

In less than five minutes, "Silence" tripled its price.

The host's eyes were full of excitement.

He's going to make a lot of money!

"Sixty million!"

"Seventy million!"

"One, one hundred million?!"

The host stared at the big screen with incredible eyes.

He once suspected that he was hallucinating, so he looked at the screen and quietly counted the zeros on it several times.

After making sure he wasn't dazzled, the smile on his face almost reached the ceiling.

"VIP guest No. 20 bids million. Is there any higher price than this?"

"One, one hundred and fifty million?"

A new price appeared on the electronic screen.

"VIP No. 1 bids million! Is there anything else..."

"Two hundred million?!"

Before the host finished speaking, the guests in the audience, no, they no longer wanted to participate in the bidding at all.

This isn't an auction, it's just showing off your wealth and burning money!

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the changes in numbers on the screen.

"Two hundred and fifty million!"

"Three hundred million!"

"Four hundred million!"

"Five billion!"

Everyone held their breath and stared at the screen.

Five seconds, ten seconds... half a minute, the bidding stopped?

The host swallowed his saliva and finally found something to use: "Guest No. 20 bids million, million for the first time, million for the second time..."

The host kept paying attention to the numbers on the big screen while prolonging the tone to prevent emergencies.

" million third..."

The host thought he was finally coming through.

As a result, at the last second, the numbers... were changed again?

"Six hundred million?"

"VIP No. 1 bids 20 million! I wonder if guest No. still intends to increase the price?"

The host is numb.

Anyway, there were only two giants taking turns to steal the limelight, so he simply broke the rules and named Mo Ling directly.

Qin Li glanced at Mo Ling and saw that he had a calm expression on his face, as if he didn't care about the small money at all.

At this time, Mo Ling also raised his eyes and met Qin Li's probing eyes, his deep eyes with a smile: "Xiao Li, if you look at me like this, I will misunderstand."

Qin Li did not avoid his ambiguous look. He suddenly raised his eyebrows and joked with a smile, "Is Mr. Mo not increasing the price because... he has no money?"
