Golden Fishery

Chapter 20: .Half Billionaire (the second of the third shift)

The carbon fourteen analyzer will not be fake. This thing is an antique from the 18th century. So Qin Shiou knew that its price would not be low, but 1.6 million was not too high. So when the price came out, he raised his hand and shouted. : "1.65 million."

  Other collectors estimated that he was watching him. Many people in the front row turned their heads to look at him. The wealthy businessman in the UAE who had previously photographed "A Woman's Head" also waved his hand and said, "1.7 million!"

  Qin Shiou smiled and did not speak, he was waiting for other people's quotations, and when the final price came out, he could just raise it up and take it, saving so much trouble.

  Sure enough, two more people made an offer and raised the price to 1.9 million. The auctioneer yelled ‘1.9 million for the first time.’ Qin Shiou raised his hand and said loudly: "2 million!"

Alan Brandon, who was sitting next to him, opened his hands and made a helpless posture. He smiled at Qin Shiou: "Young man, calm, calm, don't be impulsive. This is 2 million. You buy a piece of rotten wood. ?"

  Qin Shiou turned his head and smiled: "No way, rich and willful!"

  For an eighteenth-century ambergris sculpture that has not been officially refined, two million Canadian dollars is already the limit price. Even the wealthy businessman in the UAE has nothing to say, and shook his head and gave up the bid.

  Two million, Poseidon’s food is here.

  Brandon was still shaking his head, but Qin Shiou felt it was nothing. He had a hunch that this thing would surprise him.

There is nothing in the auctions that interest Qin Shiou. On the contrary, there is a brush painting by Master Qi Baishi that he is very tempted, and he has the consciousness of buying back national treasures for the nation. Unfortunately, the price is too high. The final transaction price turned out to be 15.5 million Canadian dollars. The money for the whole body is not enough.

  The finale is the statue of "Boethius and Medusa". The auctioneer doesn't need to say anything. The collectors' eyes brightened as soon as this thing was brought out.

In fact, many people participated in the auction this time. According to Little Blake, there were more than two hundred people, but there were at least fifty people. They were motionless during the previous forty-seven art auctions. There is no doubt that these people were all there. Waiting for this statue.

   "...Our starting price is 24 million Canadian dollars, and each time an increase of 1 million Canadian dollars!"

  As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, a fat Russian rich man immediately stood up and shouted, "26 million!"

  "27 million!" An elegant middle-aged man immediately made an offer. Little Blake introduced to Qin Shiou in a low voice: "This man comes from the British Bergen family, and that is an old noble family that originated in the Renaissance."

   "28 million!" "He is a French collector and his family has a steel factory."

   "29 million!" "This man is from Italy. It is said that his family and the Mafia have business dealings."

  ……

  Qin Shiou was happy to watch these people bid, the higher the price, the more beneficial to him, if it weren’t for the auction rule that the owner could not raise the price, he would have liked to directly mention the price of 35 million.

  As a result, coincidentally, at this moment, the UAE tycoon who had been in the limelight before waved his hand and said flatly: "35 million!"

  As soon as his price was reported, it seemed that someone had lit a firecracker at the scene, and everyone immediately began to exclaim.

  Another Russian predator stood up and said: "36 million!"

  Qin Shiou clutched his crotch tightly.

Now the rich men from Europe are angry. This bronze sculpture is one of the representative works of the European Renaissance. It was lost in the First World War. All Europeans with a little sense of racial honor want to get him back. Now This statue finally appeared, how can they do nothing?

  In the eyes of the rich in Europe, the Russian predators and the local tyrants in the Middle East are simply deceiving people too much. Where do they think this is? They think this is their one-third acre of land, can they still cover the sky with one hand?

  For the works of art in front, the rich Europeans did not take part in the auction, which is considered to be a face to these people. It seems that if the locals do not buy it, the rich Europeans are not welcome.

  Several representatives of large European families gathered together and whispered for a while, and then sent a representative to quote: "40 million!"

  Hearing this price, several Russian predators glanced at each other and shook their heads unanimously. They wanted to take down this symbolic statue, but obviously, in their hearts the statue was not worth 40 million.

  The auctioneer also felt that the price was about the same. He was about to shout, but the local tyrant in the Middle East raised his hand again: "45 million!"

While quoting, the local tyrants in the Middle East coldly looked at the rich Europeans. The implication is self-evident: The world now is not the world that Europe dominated 80 years ago. If you want to grab something from our Muslims, then do it. Some blood.

  The rich people in Europe went crazy with anger. This is their national treasure. They have to take it back anyway, so someone gritted their teeth and said, "46 million!"

  The local tyrant in the Middle East waved his hand, and he didn’t need to speak in person this time. A man dressed as an assistant shouted: "50 million!"

  Hearing this price, Qin Shiou’s eyes were bloodshot and flushed. His hands no longer cover his crotch. If he wants to shoot, he will shoot. Now he has changed to cover his heart.

  Now the rich people in Europe can't stand it. These people got together and bit their ears for a while, and finally said feebly: "52 million!"

   "55 million!" The assistant of the local tyrant in the Middle East proudly quoted.

  Little Black squeezed Qin Shiou’s hand and said: "Congratulations, Qin, you have entered the ranks of quasi-billionaires!"

  Qin Shiou pulled his hand back and continued to hold his heart. He was considering whether to ask the waiter to call the emergency number.

  Fortunately, the quotation finally stopped. The local tyrants in the Middle East gave the European rich a fatal blow with a price ladder of 5 million. After he quoted a price of 55 million, the European tycoons finally broke down.

The auctioneer yelled three quotations rhythmically, and then slammed the gavel vigorously and said loudly: "The King of Biao is born, Afef Sheikha Lifa Bin Zayed Alna from the United Arab Emirates. Mr. Hayan got the bronze statue of "Blossius and Medusa" for a high price of 55 million. Let us congratulate him with applause!"

   "Papa!" Qin Shiou's applause was particularly loud.

  The wealthy people in Europe were discouraged. They clapped their hands courteously, and then left one after another. Perhaps they were not in the mood to attend the dinner afterwards.

  The copycat "Sunflower" is 540,000, Pinarang's other paintings are 1 million, Picasso's paintings are 2.5 million, plus this 55 million, Qin Shiou's worth is suddenly close to 60 million.

  However, he still has to pay the personal income tax for art auctions. The Canadian requirement is 22%, but Auerbach told him that he could avoid taxation reasonably, and he has helped him figure out a tax avoidance plan.

  So anyway, this time he really became a local tyrant.

  The dinner was still held in this five-star hotel named ‘Four Seasons’. Little Blake took Qin Shiou around and introduced him to many rich Canadians.

  Filled a stomach of champagne, Qin Shiou came back from the toilet and saw that Little Black was standing with Alan Brandon who was sitting next to him at the auction before, and he walked over.

  Little Blake raised his glass, Qin Shiou knew that he would introduce someone to him.

Sure enough, this time Little Blake pointed the glass to Allen Brandon and smiled and said, "Qin, I think you already know Allen. Now, please allow me to introduce it again. This is the Bank of Montreal, Newfoundland and Labra. Alan Brandon, general manager of the branches of various provinces, you are from the same place, so you should communicate more."

  Able to be the president of the bank, and a member of the separatist side, Alan Brandon’s communicative skills naturally have nothing to say. When I meet again, I will flatter Qin Shiou in all directions, and I will use Mandarin!

Qin Shiou knew Brandon's meaning, and he also said straightforwardly in Mandarin: "Don't worry, man, my money will be in your bank, but don't sell me any financial products for the time being, because I want to be quiet... …"

   "Quiet, who is Jingjing?" Brandon asked pretendingly in confusion.

  Qin Shiou laughed, he naturally knew this piece from a gangbang, and he could see that Brandon had worked hard to win his 50 million.

   "You guys are very happy talking, do you mind inserting someone in?" A gentle voice sounded, and Qin Shiou turned his head and saw the local tyrant who bought "Boethius and Medusa" and walked over with a smile.

  Qin Shiou naturally doesn't mind knowing a local tyrant in the Middle East. As for bankers like Brandon, he is thirsty for such friends.

Before the young Blake wanted to entertain this UAE local tycoon named Afefu Sheikha Lifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, but when he arrived at the dinner party, he stood proudly in the corner of the hall. Drink his own drink, so that no matter how thick-skinned he is, he won't be embarrassed to go up and disturb others.

  Neither of them had any in-depth exchanges. They just said goodbye to each other once they met each other. Qin Shiou didn't wait for the end of the banquet, so he chose to go back to the room first in the name of being invincible.

  "Go, Qin, enjoy this night, I have prepared a gift for you, I hope you like it." Little Blake blinked and smiled, cunningly like a little fox.

  Qin Shiou was indeed drunk, but he went back early, but wanted to study the ‘Sea God’s Food’ he had just obtained.
