Chapter 256: Private Auctions
Looking at Lin Wan, who came with his girlfriend, and Zhuang Haiyang, who came to pick up people at the airport, also smiled meaningfully at Qian Yunpeng beside him. Even if Lin Wan's reason for coming is to do part-time jobs on holidays. But in fact, I also want to get together with Qian Yunpeng!
Although I don't know how the two are progressing at the moment, just judging from the eye contact between the two, Zhuang Haiyang feels that the progress of this pair should be not bad. I hope that when this holiday is over, the relationship between the two can also have better and more breakthroughs.
While picking up his girlfriend, Zhuang Haiyang also picked up some netizens who came to play. Facing Zhuang Haiyang, who came to pick up the station in person, these netizens who came from afar also felt very relieved and experienced the affinity that other netizens said.
Seeing the yacht docked at the pier, some netizens soon asked: "Fisherman, didn't you drive a speedboat this time?"
"No, there are only a dozen of you here this time, and I think it's a bit of a waste to drive two boats. If you want to experience the feeling of taking a speedboat, you will definitely have a chance when you arrive at Nanshan Island. Compared to taking a speedboat, I think a jet ski should be more exciting!"
Originally, when I applied, I thought that there would be a lot of people traveling with me during this National Day holiday!"
"Yes, indeed! It's just that I didn't plan to receive it, and since it's the National Day holiday, I also plan to take a break. If there are too many tourists, I don't have time to rest. I fish outside every day, and I want to have fun for a few days during the holidays!"
"Fisherman, I think you want to spend more time with your girlfriend on vacation, right?"
These are all tourists who have made an appointment in the live broadcast room, and naturally know that Zhuang Haiyang's girlfriend is studying in college. Business is on vacation, not to mention college. It's rare to have a holiday get-together, and you want to spend more time with your girlfriend, isn't it normal?
There are many people and many people to play, and there are few people and there are few people to play. For the two groups of tourists who landed on the island during the National Day holiday, they could at least live very relaxed, choose their favorite room, and enjoy a rare trip to the island.
There is experience in receiving tourists during the fishing moratorium, and the comrades-in-arms on the island can also seem very relaxed in the face of such tourists. Compared with other fishermen and crews, they chose to stay on the island to rest while going out to sea to fish as usual during the National Day holiday.
When Zhuang Haiyang accompanied his girlfriend and tourists to the island, enjoying a rare National Day holiday. In a private estate far away on the island, a small auction is being held. All buyers participating in the auction are invited without exception.
Looking at the improvised auction album, many buyers who love collecting have rushed over. It just happened that the National Day holiday was fine, and when I came to the island to travel with Taocibao, these buyers who were not bad for money in their pockets felt good.
Looking at the second batch of tourists who landed on the island, Zhuang Haiyang was very surprised and said: "Sun Shao, Xu Shao, why are you here?"
"Why can't we come? In your live broadcast room, I have a lot of tips with Mingzi! What's the matter, you're not welcome?"
"Don't dare! The two young men are here in person, how dare I not welcome them! I just think that the two of you are usually busy with affairs, how can you have leisure time to come over and play? This family property is still waiting for you to inherit?"
For Sun Shaohua and Xu Ming, who are not on the list of tourists, the two have been to Nanshan Island once before. It stands to reason that the list of tourists will be handed over to Zhuang Haiyang in advance, and this time the two are visiting as friends.
Taking advantage of the small talk, Xu Ming said very honestly: "Originally, this time, I accompanied my father to see the world. It's a pity that he needs an invitation to go next, and he only has one, so I can't get in.
I was idle, thinking that since I came to Nanzhou, I wouldn't go to you for a meal, and I would suffer a little. So, I pulled Huazi over, anyway, he was idle at home. If he wants to inherit the family business, it is estimated that he will have to wait a few more years. ”
"Oh, I see! Okay, you haven't been here for a while, so I'll go and see what's going on in my house. Compared with the last time you came, my small fishing village has changed a lot, and it should bring you a little surprise. ”
"Then I'm going to bother you!"
"That's right! Good food and drink are on it! Uncle is not bad for money!"
Compared with Xu Ming's modesty and calmness, Sun Shaohua still looks a little arrogant. The problem is that Sun Shaohua knows Zhuang Haiyang's character very well, and he will not think that he is putting on a big show because of this kind of thing.
Taking the two of them onto the yacht, looking at the second group of tourists who landed on the island, Sun Shaohua was also very surprised: "I can't see that there are more tourists playing on your island right now, it seems that there are more girls! Could it be that they are all going for you?"
For such ridicule, Zhuang Haiyang also said calmly: "Sun Shao, when you see the one in my family, you say it again, how about it?"
"Yes, when I didn't say it, you guy, it seems that you will also be a strict wife in the future!"
"It's definitely not as good as you! I think it's more down-to-earth to hold my own wretched wife!"
Different from the attitude towards other tourists, Zhuang Haiyang treats Sun Shaohua's old friends, chatting and talking more casually. Even if these comrades-in-arms around him, Zhuang Haiyang will introduce them to each other.
From this separate introduction, the comrades-in-arms can also feel that the identities of these two people are different. The two people who were introduced will also feel that they are different from ordinary tourists, and have changed from the identity of tourists to Zhuang Haiyang's true friends.
When Zhuang Haiyang received these tourists from all over the country, Zhao Penglin also received the friends he had made in the antique circle as the guest of honor. This kind of private circle between rich people really can't get in without fame and connections.
Before auctioning the items, Zhao Penglin also said directly: "Those who came today are all old friends, so I won't sell anything anymore." Today, all the lots were salvaged from a sunken ship, and there is no question whether they are real or fake.
In order to avoid worrying about the unknown origin of the goods, all lots have an appraisal certificate issued by the state. Everything that was taken out for auction this time can be legally collected. If you want to shoot that day, you can also send it legally, and there will be no problem. ”
Even in the antique circle, there is no shortage of people who collect some antiques of unknown origin. But for Zhao Penglin, there are a lot of things in this private auction. If you don't make things clear, some people will definitely be worried.
Seeing that there was Wang Mingcheng's autograph on those appraisal certificates, many collectors were also surprised: "Lao Zhao, you guy can do it! Could it be that this batch of things is a bit famous?"
"There are so many things that I can't tell you for sure, and it involves some personal privacy. What I can say is that these things have been identified by the king. Secondly, the wreck was not salvaged overseas, but on the high seas to be exact.
You're only responsible for bidding, and you're going to have to pay taxes, that's my business. If you don't get what you like today, maybe you will have a chance next time. In short, there may be private auctions like today's in the future!"
In the face of Zhao Penglin's words, many people who were invited to come also knew that Zhao Penglin and some wealthy friends in Nanzhou seemed to have registered a legal shipwreck salvage company. Not surprisingly, this was the first shipwreck to be recovered.
In addition to a lot of foreign antiques salvaged on the ship, there are also some ancient domestic porcelain. After professional appraisal and cleaning, these porcelains seem to be very well preserved, and if they are used for collection, they should have no problem in maintaining their value.
The first batch of gold coins was placed on the display stand. Looking at these different styles and a complete set of ancient gold coins, many collectors know that such a complete set of foreign gold coins is really rare in China.
"It's kind of interesting! Such a gold coin is indeed worth collecting. ”
I heard that there are a total of 10 sets of gold coins that will be auctioned today, and whether the next set can be auctioned depends on how interested other people are in this set of gold coins. If the interest is too strong, you really can't shoot it without some blood. ”
Even though there were a lot of gold coins salvaged this time, Zhao Penglin consulted Wang Mingcheng and finally decided to send them for auction in a complete set of ten pieces. This will also save some collectors the trouble of finding other gold coins.
When the auctioneer is invited, the auction begins to announce the official start of the auction. The crowd, who was originally polite, also began to bid against each other. On the other hand, Zhao Penglin and several shareholders of the company also looked at the lively bidding scene with a smile.
"Lao Zhao, it seems that next time, we should probably send a few more invitations. Previously, many friends made a special call to ask for an invitation. Look at it like this, there are still a lot of people in the circle who are interested in our stuff!"
Listening to what his friend said, Zhao Penglin also nodded and said: "This matter should not be in a hurry! If you're really interested, the next time you hold an auction, I'll send them an invitation card.
Although our auction has been approved by the above. It's just that you should know that the things we auction are all salvaged from the sunken ship. I believe that after the auction, someone will definitely inquire about where the lot came from.
If you don't want to, in the future, you'd better keep your mouth shut. No matter who asks, don't reveal anything about Xiaozhuang. If this thing can be done for a long time, the energy of our circle in the future should not be underestimated. ”
Compared with wealth, at the level of Zhao Penglin, he cares more about his own influence. As an invisible rich man in Nanzhou, his fame is also a little louder in Nanzhou. After leaving Nanzhou and going to other provinces, he was just a rich man with a little money.
If more domestic tycoons can be invited through such private auctions, their fame will be enhanced. Incidentally, the industries under their names may also be expanded and improved to a certain extent.
In the circle of the wealthy abroad, there are also various private organizations. These organizations may not seem to be well-known, but they can burst out with a lot of energy. And Zhao Penglin also hopes that such a circle can be formed or created in the future.
As the old saying goes, the time is right now. The new rich people in China actually like to collect some things to flaunt their wealth. Compared with other antiques, the counterfeit rate of things salvaged from shipwrecks is certainly not much.
At a relatively favorable price, buying antiques with good value is naturally the first choice for many wealthy people who have just entered the collecting circle. As long as there is a steady stream of shipwreck items, Zhao Penglin believes that such a private auction will become a symbol of the entry of the rich in the future!
