Chapter 547: Trouble Finding the Door
The hotel's charity auction dinner was held in the banquet hall on the fourth floor of the hotel, but Yang Meng and others were out-and-out accompaniments and did not auction anything.
He really couldn't fit into this occasion.
Yang Meng is really not a stingy person, but he understands why Zete means when he says 'rich people and rich people will be lowered when they are together'.
This kind of small charity auction is not like those top auction houses, which often cost tens of millions of dollars. There are no particularly valuable items, but these things can be regarded as opening Yang Meng's eyes.
For example, a bunch of Roman gem grapes is a real grape that can be eaten! There are 26 grapes in total, and the starting price is 11,000 US dollars! The final price is 13,400 US dollars! The price of a grape is more than 500 US dollars!
Even if it is called the 'most perfect string', where can it be 'perfect'?
With Yang Meng's current economic situation, you let him eat grapes for 500 US dollars?
For 13,400 US dollars, he can grow dozens of acres of grapes, okay?
There is also a glass hummingbird ornament, which is made of glass into a hummingbird, which glass master is the work, the specific name Yang Meng has never even heard of it, anyway, it feels similar to what I see on the domestic stalls, the starting price is 20,000 US dollars, and the transaction price is more than 60,000 US dollars.
Yang Meng really wants to go and talk to that buyer, you give me 60,000 US dollars, and I will send you a container of this thingγγγγγγ
And he can be regarded as having seen these rich people go crazy, and the 'Auction King' that night was a rusty 1958 Lockheed Jetstar plane, which fetched more than $2 million.
It doesn't sound like an expensive price, but you have to know that this plane doesn't have an engine at all, so you can only put it there and look at it! This price is quite terrifying.
And this plane was also the most crazy lot of the night, as it was one of the three private jets that Elvis Presley had during his lifetime.
The plane is also quite legendary, and it has been parked in the aircraft cemetery in Roseville, New Mexico, where it has been unattended for thirty-five years. The engine was also removed, and the cockpit was badly damaged.
Someone found the plane by chance, and after careful inspection, it turned out to be a relic of Elvis Presley, so he bought the plane for $430,000 and sent it here for auction.
Yang Meng also thought about putting this broken plane back in the yard as an ornament, and it was not bad to modify the space as a bedroom, and he even made an offer of 500,000 US dollars, but as soon as he shouted out 500,000, someone next to him shouted 1 million, and then after a nervous bidding, the final figure stopped at 2.47 million US dollars.
Is this too expensive?
Even if it is a relic of Elvis, Yang Meng is not familiar with Elvis. When you return to China, spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy the shell of an abandoned transport plane and put it in the yard to renovate it, isn't it?
All kinds of lots did not enter Yang Meng's eyes, in this auction Yang Meng did not shoot anything and ate and drank for free, alas, and a little embarrassed, I am really sorry for my identity as a 'rich man'.
"Mr. Yang, you don't like this kind of place?" asked Eva curiously as she walked out of the banquet hall.
Yang Meng shook his head: "It's not that I don't like such a place, but I don't like the things here." β
he
"Then I don't know what Mr. Yang plans to do now?" Do you want to go to the casino to try your luck or go to the show to see the show? Or do you have any other ideas? A night in Las Vegas is the beginning of life here. β
Presumably considering the nightlife of Las Vegas, this so-called 'charity auction dinner' ends at less than eight o'clock, which is a great time to start.
In fact, many people have a misconception about Las Vegas that people come here to gamble.
And the truth is: more than 40 million tourists come to Las Vegas every year, and only a few come to gamble, and most of them come for shopping.
Las Vegas' thriving gambling scene has also led to tourism in the region, with famous cabaret groups and world-renowned movie stars and singers taking pride in performing here, in fact, many of the top stars perform here. For example, the previous singer Maria Carey and the like are like this.
Las Vegas is known for its luxury and luxury, with more than 100 shows to choose from, one of which takes more than three months a day, and the content of the show is constantly changing, and the content of the show is also recognized as wonderful in the world.
There's no visitor to Las Vegas who doesn't go to the show. The famous V show, O show, Fantesi sky song and dance show, Australian macho show and so on are all here.
But Eva's question stopped Yang Meng, of course he wanted to experience the life of singing and dancing here, but with such a group of little tails, it seems that he can't let go of it!
And gamblingγγγγγγ Yang Meng is really not good at this mouthful. Playing that slot machine on the way here is to make a new appearance, let him go to the casino exclusively?
Thinking of this, Yang Meng just wanted to say that he was going to the casino, but suddenly several people appeared and blocked their way.
"That's them!"
Yang Meng looked at it, yes, the trouble is coming, isn't it the bodyguard who is guarding the elevator entrance who is talking? But he is not one person now, but a total of eight people, a total of seven men and one woman. An old man in a white suit with a bow on the top was flanked by a blonde.
He looked at Yang Meng and said, "You beat my bodyguard?"
Eva hurriedly stopped in front of Yang Meng and the others: "Doctor Hoffman, please pay attention, this is a hotel." Linda, why don't you dissuade Dr. Hoffman. β
'Linda' was the blonde beauty next to Eva, and she laughed when she heard Eva's words: "Dr. Hoffman is not a person who likes to suffer, he is a VIP resident of our hotel, and the hotel should mediate when something like this happens in our hotel." But Dr. Hoffman likes to solve problems on his own, so he doesn't use the power of the shop. β
Eva hurriedly said, "But Mr. Yang is also a top-floor resident!"
After hearing this, Hoffman smiled coldly: "A yellow-skinned monkey dares to beat my bodyguard? This is the Stars and Stripes! You people are willing to lose the glory of our white people for money, I won't! You say this is a hotel? Of course I know, so I choose to wait for you here, let's go, there is an elevator, let's go directly to the underground parking lot to solve our problems!"
Anyway, he is really good at finding a place, which is where the hotel's freight elevator is located
The elevator space is large enough that these people have no problem riding together.
After hearing this, Linda smiled and kissed Hoffman on the face: "Dr. Hoffman, this is what I like about you, you are a real man." β
Eva still wanted to speak, but Yang Meng stopped him and laughed: "If you let me go, I'll go?" Are you stupid?"
At this time, one of Hoffman's bodyguards stepped forward: "I hope you are smart enough not to cause trouble for yourself." With that, he lifted his suit.
Eva almost screamed when she saw it, because the man clearly had a gun in his clothes!
But before she could shout, the 'Linda' shouted first: the moment the bodyguard revealed the gun, Ake had already rushed up and kicked the bodyguard in the chest, and the bodyguard flew out directly, I don't know if it was intentional or a coincidence, the bodyguard flew out and smashed on Linda's body, Linda rolled her eyes and fainted directly.
"Ake, what are you doing?" Xiao Ou said dissatisfied. His kick was halfway before Ake took the lead.
After hearing this, Ake said, "I also want to exercise properly." You can't just do it yourself. β
"Alright, the rest is mine. "Little Ou Dao.
Ake shook his head and said, "How can this work? Hey, you say it's a parking lot, right? Let's go!"
Hoffman was a little frightened, but Ake grabbed him by the neck and walked to the elevator: "Let's go!"
"What are you going to do?" Hoffman's bodyguards wanted to stop Ake's behavior, but Xiao Ou stopped them directly, and the first one directly punched Ake, but Ake directly reached out and grabbed the bodyguard's fist: "Don't worry." Let's talk about it!" After saying that, he directly pushed the bodyguard into the elevator: "You guys come here!" He beckoned to the remaining bodyguards and motioned for them to go in too.
Those bodyguards, you look at me, I see that you don't know how to do it, Ake directly grabbed Hoffman's neck and entered the elevator: "You say you are stupid, their boss is here, do they dare to go in?"
His method was really good, and now the bodyguards followed. Yang Meng and the others also followed inside, and Eva asked, "Mr. Yang, what about these two?"
Rui Rui and Sasha answered her with action: the two of them walked over, one dragging one by the other's legs, and just like that, they dragged the two into the elevator. The two of them were expressionless, as if they were dragging not people, but two broken sacks. Even the 'little friend' (Sister He) had a flat face and followed into the elevator.
Eva took a deep breath and stepped into the elevator. He asked his most curious question: "Mr. Yang, are you sure you are a doctor?"
Yang Meng smiled: "Laid-off doctor." β
Eva hurriedly said, "Mr. Yang, do you have to make things so big? This may cause you countless troubles. β
Yang Meng grinned: "Eva, I'm not a person who has played all over the world, well, to be precise, I should be an 'otaku', and my favorite thing is to stay at home." But I've also traveled to several countries and places. Do you know what I can't stand the most?"
Eva shook her head and said she didn't know.
Yang Meng suddenly showed a cruel smile on his face: "No matter who it is, as long as they insult my country and insult my skin color and my relatives, I will definitely teach them an unforgettable lesson!"
