Chapter 352: The Faucet Is Leaking

Auctions are commercial activities of a public nature.

Virtually anyone can participate, no invitation is required.

Just like a supermarket opening its doors and restaurants opening its doors to welcome customers, the auction company's business premises are the auction venue, and the auction is open to the general public, regardless of whether they participate in the auction or not, anyone can enter the venue, but if they do not register to bid, they cannot respond to the price.

An invitation to an auction is actually an advertisement, not a voucher for admission, and has nothing to do with participation in the auction.

The reason why Wang Chen and Young Master Xu took great pains to invite a group of wealthy people to participate in the auction is mainly because Tianyuxuan Auction House has just been established, and there is no reputation in the outside world.

Naturally, for this group of masters, Wang Chen has to entertain them well.

Although it was late at night, he couldn't sleep, so he personally and Young Master Xu chose a high-end hotel in Bangkok and booked dozens of rooms.

Finish that.

The two returned to the auction house again.

in the storeroom.

As soon as I walked in, I saw Liu Yan and several staff members sorting each item into categories.

Wang Chen greeted him: "Old Liu, how is it?"

Liu Yan turned his head, pushed his reading glasses, and said with a smile: "It's almost, there are more hours that should be able to handle it." ”

"Come, I'll help you. Young Master Xu took the initiative to step forward to place the items together, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Today, I have to thank you for your old plan, otherwise how can those customers I invited be so satisfied? ”

Liu Yan, who was holding a piece of jade in his hand, said in a daze: "Dong Xu, what do you mean by this?"

Young Master Xu laughed and said, "It's not interesting, it's just that the items you sent to the conference room were all selected well, but fortunately you didn't bring the low-value ones." ”

Wang Chen listened with a smile and was silent, knowing that Young Master Xu thought that the ones sent to the conference room were carefully selected by Liu Yan, but in fact, it was not the case at all.

Sure enough, Liu Yan said speechlessly: "I didn't deliberately select, there are nearly two hundred collections, how can I have time to choose, every time I identify something, I will send it over." ”

"Are we so lucky? You take one of them and it's all fine?" Young Master Xu was happy, and looked back at Wang Chen, "Xiao Wang, it seems that God wants to make our auction a success." ”

Wang Chen smiled and said, "Maybe." ”

"By the way, how many of the more than 100 pieces are estimated to be less than 200,000 yuan? Young Master Xu's eyes wandered around the pile of items.

Liu Yan hesitated: "Are you saying that it is less than 200,000 US dollars?"

Young Master Xu couldn't help but laugh and said: "It must be RMB, it's not the first time you've done an auction, if it's less than 200,000 US dollars, you can't put it up for auction, don't open the auction company that day, and not everyone is a billionaire." ”

Liu Yan spread his hands and said, "That's really not." ”

Young Master Xu was stunned, "No?

"Not really. Liu Yan smacked his lips and said, "If you want you to say that there are one or twenty cases that are less than 200,000 US dollars, and the others are basically more than 200,000 US dollars." ”

What the?

Impossible, right?

Of the 156 new lots being sent in lots, only 10 or 20 were under $200,000?

Young Master Xu was dumbfounded when he heard this, he snorted, "What are you talking about? One hundred and fifty or sixty pieces of jewelry are worth more than 200,000 RMB?"

"That's right. ”

"I'm talking about RMB, not baht. ”

"I know, at first I thought you were talking about dollars. ”

After confirming it again and again, Young Master Xu was still a little incredulous, and even said something rather impolite, "Old Liu, shouldn't you have made a mistake in the dark light at night, how can it be that each piece is worth more than 200,000?"

Liu Yan was a little unhappy and said: "It's not me who identifies it, besides, do you think there is any difference between the lights in our company and the daytime? Or are you doubting my professional ability?"

Young Master Xu immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that, Old Liu, I just felt that Xiao Wang brought one hundred and fifty or sixty pieces of jewelry worth more than 200,000 yuan, and I was a little surprised." ”

It's not just a surprise.

It's simply unbelievable.

Because even if the average value of these 1560 pieces of collection is about 200,000 US dollars, then the total value is more than 30 million US dollars, which is converted into 200 million RMB, not to mention that there are high-ice Zhengyang green jade balls with a valuation of hundreds of millions in it.

Sotheby's Hong Kong's 16 Autumn Auction Charm Jewelry and Jadeite Jewelry Auction Total Turnover was only 165 billion yuan?

In this way, the batch of jewels brought by Wang Chen, even if they are not very valuable jade balls, royal blues and water drops of pigeon's blood rubies, etc., can compete with Sotheby's jewelry auction?

That's Sotheby's!

One of the largest auction companies in the world!

Although it was only a comparison between the jewelry sessions, Young Master Xu was still surprised.

I saw that Young Master Xu suddenly turned his head to look at Wang Chen, and said quietly: "Brother Wang, you already know the value of this batch of things?"

Wang Chen blinked and said, "What do you say?"

Young Master Xu rolled his eyes and said, "Then if you don't remind me before, it will make me scared." ”

Wang Chen pouted and said: "I said that I could directly move into the video conference room to show the customers, don't you believe it, now it's up to me?"

Young Master Xu showed an embarrassed expression, and said haha: "What, can I still not believe your Xiao Wang's ability?" He hurriedly changed the topic, "What, everyone is hungry now, let's hurry up and help Liu Lao sort things, and go out for some supper later." ”

Liu Yan interjected at the right time, and he said worriedly: "I'm afraid that the value of this batch of things is too high now, and the people participating in the auction have more than enough hearts and not enough strength, so don't let many of them fail to be auctioned at that time." ”

That's just as well.

Only one or two dozen were less than $200,000.

The rest is basically above 200,000 US dollars, which is converted into more than 1 million RMB, how can everyone participating in the auction be willing to spend so much money?

Wang Chen knew that Liu Yan was telling the truth.

Who knew that Young Master Xu, who was worried before, came to the scene, and he sighed, "What's there to worry about, I have invited hundreds of rich people from China, Hong Kong and other places, and the value of these items is so high, not to mention that all of them are auctioned off, even if the transaction volume is only 40%, it can still cause a sensation." ”

Originally, after listening to Liu Yan's words, Wang Chen was indeed a little worried, but as soon as he heard Young Master Xu's words, he was completely relieved, not that Young Master Xu invited more than a hundred rich people to come over, but that the high-ice Zhengyang Green Jade Ball worth hundreds of millions of dollars was basically scheduled to be auctioned out, plus the two bronzes would be auctioned off and would not be left to outsiders, and the external turnover was guaranteed to be more than one billion.

Is there really anything to worry about?

You must know that the total turnover of Sotheby's autumn auction in 17 years was only 31.5 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the auction company opened by Wang Chen and Young Master Xu was not well known, and the guaranteed turnover was about 1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars, which was enough to become an instant hit.

The main question now is how much the final turnover cap can be.

Of course, Wang Chen is more concerned about how much money he can make from this auction.

The three of them and the rest of the staff continued to sort their items with laughter and laughter, and when they were done, they went out for a supper.

By the time I got home and went to bed, it was already four or five o'clock in the morning.

……

Starry Bangkok.

When he opened the door and went in, Wang Chen was so tired that he glanced at the master bedroom and found that the light was turned off inside, thinking that Sister Mei hadn't woken up yet, he took off his coat and hastily went into the bathroom to take a shower, and then took out his pajamas from the suitcase and changed them, ready to squint in the sofa for a while.

No way.

Just one bed.

Wang Chen lay on the sofa, turned on the air conditioner, yawned, and prepared to turn off the lights and go to bed.

Suddenly, the master bedroom light came on.

Immediately after that, footsteps were heard inside, and the door clicked open.

Sister Mei, who was wearing pink pajamas, walked out of it with a yawn, and when she just got outside, she saw Wang Chen standing next to the sofa, and was stunned for a moment, "Xiaochen, you woke up so early." ”

"One ......" Wang Chen originally wanted to say that he hadn't slept all night, but he was afraid that Sister Mei would be embarrassed to live in one bed in the whole house, so don't run out to open the room to sleep when the time comes, and his little bit of careful thinking may be miscarried, he swallowed the words, nodded with a smile and said: "Well, the auction will be held tomorrow, and the company will be very busy today, so I will get up early to deal with it." ”

Sister Mei walked over slowly, and said distressedly: "Don't be so desperate, the company's affairs are too busy, let's sleep again, ho?"

"I know. Wang Chen changed the subject and said, "By the way, have you been hungry since you slept yesterday afternoon?"

"No, no, I'm still a little sleepy, I'll go to the toilet and squint. Sister Mei was embarrassed and said, "Do you think my sister is lazy and sleeps eleven or twelve hours a night?"

Wang Chen flatly denied it: "No, how can it be? Women should sleep more and get more beauty sleep, you go to the toilet first." ”

"Done. Sister Mei didn't say anything more and walked towards the toilet.

Wang Chen glanced at her plump back, if she usually couldn't think about anything, but she was too sleepy to sleep all night, and she was not in the mood to have any thoughts.

The toilet door was closed.

Wang Chen wondered if he should go into the computer room and lie down for a while.

Suddenly, he heard a strange sound coming from the bathroom, not too obvious, if it weren't for the silence of the early morning, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to hear it clearly.

"Shhhh

The voice was intermittent, Wang Chen didn't react to what it was at first, he was still wondering if it was a faucet leaking, and was about to check it, when suddenly, he suddenly woke up, Wori, it was indeed a leaking faucet, but it was not a faucet in the house, but Sister Mei......

It's not good for others to eavesdrop on the toilet.

As a highly educated and highly qualified person, he resolutely will not eavesdrop on other women's toilets.

So, Wang Chen moved a few steps to the bathroom and pricked up his ears to listen carefully...... Well, it's not eavesdropping, it's listening openly.

Well, he's too greedy for Sister Mei.

Maybe it's because of the night, this "boo" lasted quite long.

Wang Chen scolded himself in his heart, and at the same time, his head was full of thoughts, Nima, my buddies were all ready to party, but now they are being like this, and they are sleeping in a basket.

After about a minute, there was the sound of the toilet flushing inside, and then what appeared to be the sound of running water for washing hands.

The bathroom door opened, and Sister Mei came out of it, "Hey, you haven't gone to sleep yet?"

Wang Chen coughed, "What, I'm not sleepy, you go to sleep first." ”

"Okay, I'll squint for a while, and I'll get up and call you for breakfast later. Sister Mei stretched gracefully, didn't care about her image at all, and walked towards the bedroom.

Seeing this, Wang Chen said in his heart that you really don't treat me as an outsider, but he really enjoys getting along with Sister Mei like this, a woman who wants to save face, she doesn't care about her image in front of herself, and obviously regards him as her own, Wang Chen feels that he has to work harder, and strive to really become his own person with Sister Mei, rather than the other party treating him as his own.

Far from it.

Let's squint first.

In the afternoon, customers come to say hello, and they don't sleep and have no energy.

Wang Chen was so sleepy that he yawned, and walked towards the second bedroom, ready to rest for the first take-off of his career.
