He has an eye for money and is a gold medal auctioneer. He has a pair of fiery eyes that can see through the details of any collection, and an iron mouth that can persuade buyers to willingly empty their pockets. He relies on his ability to make a living and never touches gray area business. Until one day, Zhou Yong'an, the owner of the well-known "Yong'an Auction House" in the industry, came to his door and offered him a sky-high price to host a private auction.
Qian accepted the auction with his eyes open, but discovered during the preview that all the so-called "repatriated cultural relics from overseas" came from domestic tombs that had been stolen in recent years. What shocked him even more was that he recognized the secret mark on one of the bronze tripods - it was a national treasure-level cultural relic that had been stolen just after it was unearthed by the archaeological team three months ago.
He wanted to get away, but on the night of the auction, he saw Zhou Yongan's men dragging an insider who tried to report into the basement and never came out again. During the police investigation, all evidence was wiped clean, and only Qian Yankai remembered the last look in the deceased's eyes.
Zhou Yongan raised a toast to him: "Teacher Qian, with this blow, you will be one of our own."
On the stage, the auction hammer weighed one catty and two taels. Qian opened his eyes and grasped it tightly, knowing that if he knocked it down with this hammer, it would be a sin, and if he couldn't knock it down, he would be dead. What he wants to do is use this three-inch mallet to smash the empire that Zhou Yongan built with money and blood at the next auction.
