As Elaine said, what was on the shelf was a helmet from the Middle Ages.
To be more precise, this is a medieval Crusader knight's helmet.
It is shaped like a barrel helmet with a visor and neck guard, which completely protects the wearer's head and neck, leaving only a gap in front of the eyes for observation.
Unfortunately, the helmet is not in very good condition, it is rusty and has some damage to the edges.
On the surface of the helmet, you can clearly see many marks of slashes and axes, and the visor is even partially dented.
It can be seen from this that the Crusader knight who originally wore this helmet must have been a brave and skilled warrior who had experienced hundreds of battles.
In addition, the surface of this Crusader knight's helmet is engraved with many exquisite patterns, and there are several crosses engraved on the forehead and visor.
Unfortunately, most of these crosses are covered with rust and cannot be seen clearly.
As for the situation inside the helmet, it is currently unknown as it is not allowed to be picked up for observation.
In Xiao Ran's eyes, there was no such problem.
Coming closer, Xiao Ran quickly glanced at the Crusader Knight helmet, and then left with Elaine.
Elaine was a little reluctant to leave.
Just as she was about to look back at the knight's helmet, Xiao Ran suddenly whispered:
"Don't look back, or you'll reveal your secrets."
"This is the Crusader helmet of the Knights Hospitallers. Judging from the shape of the cross, it should be the helmet used in the early days of the Knights Hospitallers."
"Furthermore, this helmet is of very high specifications. It is probably the equipment of a high-ranking member of the Knights. It is not even ruled out that it is the helmet of a certain grand leader."
"ah!"
Elaine exclaimed softly.
Immediately afterwards, the beauty whispered excitedly:
"Wow! I didn't expect this to be the helmet of a high-ranking member of the Knights Hospitallers."
"If it is really the helmet of a certain Grand Commander, and if evidence can be found to support it, it must be worth a lot of money."
At the same time, the live broadcast room also became very lively.
"What the hell is the Knights Hospitaller? Is it very famous? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Wen Shen Mumu asked timidly.
The next moment, someone gave the answer.
"The Knights Hospitaller is one of the three famous knights in the Middle Ages. It was founded during the First Crusade and still exists today. It is one of the most famous micro-states in the world."
"Xiao Ran, if this is really the helmet of the Grand Master of the Knights Hospitallers, wouldn't it be priceless?"
The monsters asked one after another.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but chuckle.
“Let’s put it this way, former U.S. Presidents Reagan and Bush, and former South African President Mandela are all honorary knights of the Knights Hospitallers.”
"In the American upper class society, which is extremely lacking in historical heritage and always wants to be related to the established European aristocrats, the value of this high-level Crusader knight's helmet can be imagined."
"Hahaha"
There was laughter immediately in the live broadcast room.
After the laughter subsided, a fan immediately offered to buy the Crusader Knight helmet.
The fans who proposed the purchase came from the collector's live broadcast room with only a dozen people, and more than one person made a purchase request.
Obviously, several domestic collectors standing behind those guys have realized the value of this Crusader Knight helmet.
And they know very well that the value of this Knights Hospitaller helmet must be much higher than 5 million yuan, and they can participate in the competition.
In addition to several fans in the collector's live broadcast room, several guys represented by Half-Asleep and Half-awake also made purchase requests.
However, Xiao Ran shook his head and rejected them.
"Everyone, please be patient. Wait until I take a photo of this Crusader Knight helmet and research it. Then we can talk about the private message bidding."
"Perhaps tonight, or in a day or two, I will give you a clear answer."
After hearing this, those guys who were eyeing this Crusader Knight helmet could only stop their efforts and continue to wait patiently.
While talking, Xiao Ran and Yi Lian had already moved forward some distance.
At this moment, Jeremy suddenly came over and asked in a low voice:
"Sean, are you interested in that medieval Crusader knight's helmet? Can you tell me about it?"
"Is that a modern forgery, or is it a real Crusader knight's helmet? What is its value?"
Xiao Ran turned to look at this guy, then smiled and shook his head.
"I'm very sorry, Jeremy, I can't tell you exactly. I can't give you an accurate answer."
"You can study it carefully and you may make new discoveries."
Jeremy was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly and said:
"How can I have time to study carefully? There are so many items on site, but the visiting time is only one hour, which is not enough at all."
Having said that, this guy turned around and walked towards the Crusader Knight helmet.
Obviously, he wanted to see something to strengthen his determination to auction.
His performance made Elaine a little nervous.
"Sean, did Jeremy see something?"
Xiao Ran chuckled and whispered:
"Don't worry, even if he can see something, it won't be too much!"
"Besides, can't we still use money to knock him out? There's nothing to worry about."
Elaine immediately relaxed, smiled coquettishly and pinched Xiao Ran gently.
"You are really unreasonable!"
"Being reasonable? Whoever has more money at the auction is being reasonable. All else is nonsense!"
With that said, Xiao Ran walked forward and continued to check other lots on the shelves.
At the same time, there was a lot of discussion in the live broadcast room.
"Xiao Ran is too strong. If he keeps going like this, he will be shot down sooner or later!"
Beixingqiao Daniel Wu said with a smile.
The next moment, someone started to complain.
"You just got access to the Internet cafe at home? Or did you just buy a mobile phone?"
"Xiao Ran was almost kidnapped a few days ago, but the scumbags who tried to kidnap him were all killed overnight."
"This has caused a huge sensation in Los Angeles, and you don't even know it was co-authored!"
After the words fell, the live broadcast room suddenly became quiet, and no one spoke anymore.
Invariably, everyone thought of a possibility.
However, no one spoke out, and everyone chose to remain silent.
Xiao Ran smiled helplessly, but did not defend himself.
Too many words, too many mistakes!
Next, they discovered some good things one after another.
There are antique artifacts and artworks from various periods and countries, as well as some exquisite and collectible modern products.
For example, some limited edition hand-made toys, various customized items, etc.
The reason why these items were confiscated was basically due to tax evasion or the cargo owner forgot to pay the tax, and as a result, they were confiscated by the airport customs.
Some of them were confiscated because the materials were dangerous, such as being sharp or flammable or explosive.
In the meantime, the guys in the studio have come back to life.
Everyone continued to hunt for treasures with Xiao Ran, looking for things they liked, and everyone had a great time.
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed.
Visiting time is over.
Under the reminder and supervision of the auction house staff, everyone ended their visit and came to the auction venue located in the center of the warehouse.
According to the order of registration, many professional treasure hunters each received a bidding number, then took their seats and sat on the chairs waiting for the auction to begin.
As for those treasure hunting enthusiasts, there are no seats and they can only stand around the auction venue and bid.
However, they each also have a bidding number plate to facilitate bidding.
Xiao Ran and Elaine's seats were in the first row of the auction venue, which was very conspicuous.
Although they were not the first to arrive or register as a professional treasure hunter, everyone knew that he was the richest and most powerful buyer here.
Although everyone was a little unhappy about the auction house placing them in the first row, they accepted this reality.
No way, who made that lucky bastard rich!
After sitting down in his seat, Xiao Ran immediately handed the bidding number plate to Elaine.
"Elaine, the LeBronie Platinum Cream you are interested in will probably be on sale soon."
“Since it’s the treasure you’re interested in, it’s up to you to put up the bid.”
"For the rest of the bidding, you will be the one holding the placards, and I will just assist you!"
Upon hearing this, Elaine immediately nodded in surprise and said:
"Okay, then let me raise the sign and bid."
"This is my first time in my life, it must be very interesting!"
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
“There is always a first time for everything, I wish you a happy start!”
Before he finished speaking, there were boos in the live broadcast room.
"Did I hear you correctly? Is someone driving?"
