Live Stream Treasure Hunt: I Made Profits Million Times Over

Chapter 4: Chapter4-Confirmed! This Streamer Really Has Something!

Everyone looked at Emilia with envy.

"Wow! 680,000, this has broken our record for the highest price in Container Hunt Auctions! Of course, this record may not last long." Robert timely adjusted the atmosphere.

Everyone knew what Robert meant, and their eyes fell back on Daniel.

Or rather, on the painting in Daniel\'s hands.

Once this painting is confirmed as genuine by Mr. Taylor, its value will far exceed the goods Emilia has just won!

I wonder where Mr. Taylor is now.

At that moment, a man around forty burst into the crowd.

He quickly found Durant and blurted out, "Durant, where\'s the item?!"

Before Durant could respond, the man\'s eyes flickered and saw the painting in Daniel\'s hand.

He quickly turned around and rushed over, leaned in close, and trembled as he touched the painting, looking very nervous, afraid of accidentally damaging it.

After a while, he looked up at Daniel and asked, "Can you lay it out flat?"

Daniel nodded, crouched on the ground, and carefully unfolded the painting.

The entire contents of the painting were displayed in front of everyone.

On the long scroll of ten or so meters, there are a group of horses with different shapes depicted in great detail.

They are scattered and free, comfortable, with the landscapes and plants depicted realistically and vividly.

Everyone was breathless from the beauty of the painting.

Everyone agreed that such a painting, if genuine, would reach an astonishing value.

Benjamin Taylor leaned over the painting, his eyes unblinking.

It took him a good ten minutes before he excitedly shouted, "It\'s real, it\'s really real!"

"This Hundred Horses painting, it\'s authentic!"

As soon as the words came out, dozens of people in the auction site fell into silence.

It wasn\'t until the distant cargo ship let out a deafening horn that everyone woke up from the shock.

"Real?! Is it really authentic?!"

"How is it possible! Such treasures should be treasured, how could they be transported casually?"

"Mr. Taylor is one of the top authorities in the antique painting and calligraphy world, the results he identifies should not be wrong."

Benjamin Taylor looked at Daniel and asked, "Are you selling this painting?"

Daniel replied, "Yes."

Having already mastered the [Artwork Appraisal] skill, as long as the price is right, selling is naturally the best option.

Benjamin Taylor didn\'t hesitate, he directly quoted, "40 million!"

This quote left everyone dumbfounded again.

40 million StellarCoins could be considered rich in any country.

In the crowd, Wilson was dazed.

In his view, this container should have been his auction item, but because he didn\'t want to raise the price on the basis of 550 StellarCoins, he missed the chance to get rich.

He regretted over a few hundred, yet he lost out on forty million.

With a blackout in front of his eyes, Wilson fell to the ground in a faint.

On the other side, Robert was equally incredulous.

In his view, Daniel had only bid because of his persuasion.

Little did he know, there was no gold, silver, or jewels in the container, but there were antique paintings and calligraphy, real ones!

Who could have thought of this?

40 million! If it were him, he would not hesitate at all and would sell directly.

But Daniel shook his head and said, "50 million."

He directly quoted the system-assessed market price.

The market price is not the highest price, as long as you can find a sincere buyer, not to mention 50 million, 80 million could be possible.

Among the buyers found by the system, some are willing to pay 50 million for this "Hundred Horses".

Benjamin Taylor frowned and said, "45 million, that\'s the most I can get, and I still need to call my assistant to mortgage my assets."

Daniel replied, "I\'m sorry, then I have to find another buyer."

Benjamin Taylor clearly didn\'t want to give up, so he said, "50 million is not a small amount, those who like this painting and can offer this price, there\'s only me."

Daniel simply stated a name: "Joy Ellison."

"He should be willing to pay 50 million."

This name was exactly the buyer he found using the system.

As soon as the words were spoken, Benjamin Taylor\'s expression changed noticeably, especially when he saw Daniel\'s confident look, he was surprised.

Being able to know Joy Ellison, it seems this young man is an expert.

Thinking this way, Benjamin Taylor was no longer indecisive: "Fine, 50 million it is!"

Seeing this, Daniel chuckled and said, "Mr. Taylor, you\'re quite straightforward. Don\'t worry, if there are good items in the future, I\'ll find you first."

Good stuff? Does he think these kinds of items are as common as cabbages in the supermarket, easily stumbled upon?

Benjamin Taylor just thought Daniel was talking nonsense and politely responded, "Thank you, give me an account, I\'ll have my assistant handle it now."

While waiting for the transaction to be processed, Benjamin Taylor chatted casually with his old acquaintance, Durant.

When he found out that Daniel had acquired the container housing the "Hundred Horses" for just 550 StellarCoins, his face turned particularly odd.

He choked back his words for a moment, then muttered, "Damn, why didn\'t God bestow this kind of luck on me?"

But Durant countered, "No, I don\'t think it\'s just luck." He then recounted the process of Daniel observing the container and hesitating for a long time.

Benjamin Taylor exclaimed in surprise, "You mean, he saw there was a treasure inside?"

Durant nodded, "Anyway, it was pitch-black inside the container, even the movers didn\'t notice the luggage bag hanging in a blind spot. This young man went straight in and took it out."

Benjamin Taylor was completely stunned.

People who could identify the authenticity of paintings and calligraphy are not many, but not rare either.

But anyone with substantial experience in this field could discern something if they observe carefully and distinguish attentively.

But according to the Container Hunt Auction rules for containers, you can only look from the outside, you can\'t get close, let alone touch.

That means, under these conditions, Daniel recognized that there was a treasure inside.

This skill is extraordinary.

He asked himself, he could absolutely not do it.

Benjamin Taylor approached Daniel, his attitude becoming much friendlier, "I\'m Benjamin Taylor, how should I address you?"

"Daniel."

"To recognize a treasure in such an environment, Mr. Daniel, you must have studied deeply in the field of art and calligraphy."

Daniel modestly responded, "I just have some general knowledge about it, but I\'m not on the same level as you Mr. Taylor."

Benjamin Taylor fished out a business card from the lining of his suit and handed it to Daniel, "This is my card, you can call the number directly if you need anything in the future."

It was at this point that Benjamin Taylor truly recognized Daniel.

Meanwhile, in the livestream room, the chat had exploded.

"Holy shit? Holy shit? Holy shit!!!"

"A painting sold for 50 million?"

"50 million StellarCoins, 400 million in DragonCoin."

"Did I just witness the birth of a billionaire?!"

"Is this not scripted?"

"It\'s not scripted, I checked Wikipedia, that Benjamin Taylor guy is a famous archaeologist from Libertopia and the president of the World Ancient Culture Research Association. Such a big shot would not play along with a live streamer\'s act."

"Benjamin Taylor also just mentioned that the streamer has deep knowledge in the field of antique art and calligraphy, so that\'s true?"

"Holy shit, does this streamer really have something?"

Daniel ignored the chaos in the live broadcast room, only noticing that the number of viewers had multiplied several times, which made him smile contentedly.

After this event blows over, the number of viewers in the livestream room would surely rise even more dramatically.

Soon, he received a text message on his phone.

50 million StellarCoins received!

Daniel handed the "Hundred Horses" to Benjamin Taylor.

Noticing that Daniel had no intention of leaving, Benjamin Taylor asked, "Are you planning to continue bidding here?"

Daniel nodded.

Following Robert\'s indication, another shipping container was brought over by a forklift.

When it was opened, brand new machinery was revealed to everyone present.

With this kind of merchandise, everyone understood its value, so there was no chance for a surprise find.

Daniel decided to pass on it right away.

In the end, it was secured by a pair of twin brothers for a price of 50,000 StellarCoins.

After Durant\'s evaluation, this batch of machinery was worth 80,000.

The twin brothers made a clean profit of 30,000 right away, and they howled with delight, embracing each other.

They clamored to invite everyone out to a nightclub to celebrate that evening.
