Chapter 229 Ornamental Fish Auction (Part I)
……
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the Modu Hotel where Wang Zheng and the others were staying. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Grandpa, that's them!"
Just when Wang Zheng and the two walked into the hotel lobby, a familiar voice sounded in their ears.
Subconsciously looked in the direction where the voice came from, and what caught my eye was the red-clothed young man who sold the pot of orchid to him for 800,000 yuan on the second floor of the Agricultural Exhibition Hall this morning. And at this moment, beside him, there is an old man wearing a blue broken gown, loose black pants and old-fashioned cloth shoes, with white hair and strong spirits.
When Wang Zheng looked at the other party, the old and the young also strode towards them.
However, compared to the old man's solemn expression, the young man in red was a little evasive when he saw Wang Zheng, and there was some helplessness and resistance in his expression.
"You're Wang Zheng, right?"
Approaching, the old man asked after looking up and down.
"I am, I don't know if you are ......, old man?"
"I'm this bastard's grandfather!" the old man said after glaring angrily at the red-clothed young man beside him.
"Hello!"
I vaguely guessed the intention of this pair of grandchildren in my heart, but there should be no less politeness Wang Zheng, so he stretched out his right hand to the old man.
"Hello!"
Wang Zheng's thoughtful etiquette made the anger in the old man's eyes disappear a lot, and his eyes when he looked at Wang Zheng became a lot softer. However, there was still no smile on his slightly thin face.
"It's not getting early now, and my old man doesn't know how to say anything polite. simply said bluntly, the pot of Huilan that this bastard boy sold you this morning is the treasure of our Zhang family, and it cannot be sold to outsiders, and now the 800,000 yuan of funds will be returned to you, I hope you can return the pot of Huilan to us!" As he spoke, the old man took out a check from his pocket and handed it to Wang Zheng.
"There are so many more expensive orchids at home, what if you sell a pot, and the growth is not good......!"
Before the young man in red could finish speaking, he was glared back by the old man.
After glancing at the check in the old man's hand, Wang Zheng did not take it. And Wang Ying, who was standing on the side at this moment, couldn't help but say: "Old man, you're not right! This business is about 'money and goods' and 'children are not deceived', and we have reached an agreement with your grandson to buy back the pot of orchid fairly and reasonably, and it has become our thing." Now, you can't help but say that you're going to take it back again, isn't it?"
The old man also knew that Wang Ying's words were reasonable, but if he wanted Ailan to become obsessed, he would definitely not be able to give up his best pot of 'Wang's Suhe' Huilan.
"I don't care, anyway, the money will be given to you. If you don't give me that pot of orchids, I won't leave here, and I'll follow you wherever you go!"
"You're a lot older, why are you still a scoundrel......" Wang Ying said angrily.
However, Wang Zheng interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and looked at the stubborn old man in front of him with a smile, "Old man, I heard your grandson say just now that you still have a lot of famous orchids at home, right?"
"Of course, my grandfather's orchid collection is this in the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions!"
Looking at his grandson's thumbs up, the old man said angrily: "Shut up, no one will treat you as a dumb person if you don't speak!"
"What do you want to do?" After suppressing his grandson, the old man looked at Wang Zheng vigilantly, "To tell you the truth, I don't sell a pot of orchids, you'd better not make up your mind!"
"You don't want 'Wang's Suhe' anymore?" Wang Zheng said with a smile.
"What the hell do you want?" said the old man after a struggle.
"Actually, it's very simple, I don't want a pot of orchids in your old hand, I won't take back the 800,000 yuan, and the pot of 'Wang's Suhe' I bought from your grandson will also be returned to your old ......!"
"Wang Zheng, you don't have a fever, do you?"
Wang Ying is like this, and the old man surnamed Zhang is even more suspicious! He has lived a long time, and he has never seen a few 'Lei Feng' who repay grievances with virtue, suffer losses for himself, and give all the benefits to others!
Ignoring Wang Ying, Wang Zheng continued to look directly at the old man and said, "Of course, I still have one condition!"
"Huh, is this the Wang Zheng I know!" Wang Ying said secretly in her heart.
"What conditions?" the old man asked subconsciously.
"It's very simple, I want to take a branch from each of the famous orchids you have cultivated!" Wang Zheng threw out his ultimate goal.
National orchids are propagated by tillering and do not rely on seeds. Therefore, if you want to get a new orchid plant, you need to cut a new plant from the old roots.
“…… Don't be in a hurry to refuse. If you agree, I can cure the symptoms of that pot of 'Wang's Suhe', let it come back to life, and when the time comes, I will give you a pot of famous orchids with lush leaves!"
"You have what it takes?"
The old man was deeply suspicious of Wang Zheng's words, after all, even he himself didn't take good care of the pot of orchids, and the young Wang Zheng didn't look like a master of raising orchids.
"Whether there is such a ability, we will find out in a few days!"
Looking at the confident expression on Wang Zheng's face, the old man nodded after a little hesitation. If you can revive the pot of high-value famous orchids, it is not impossible to consider giving him a few seedlings of national orchids.
"Well, I agreed to your conditions. However, three days, we limit it to three days, if you can't cure my orchid after three days, then you have to return it to me unconditionally!"
"It's a deal!"
"It's a deal!"
"Now, shouldn't you give me your contact information, or address?
"Okay!" the old man nodded after a moment's hesitation.
After leaving the phone number, the old man left in a hurry with his grandson. Looking at their backs, Wang Ying couldn't help but say, "Are you really sure to cure the symptoms of that pot of orchids?"
"Of course, if I'm not sure, why should I agree!"
After the words fell, Wang Zheng turned around and walked towards the elevator room.
"This guy is as unpredictable as ever!" After muttering, Wang Ying hurriedly followed.
In the following days, in addition to occasionally getting a few antiques from Wang Sen that he had picked up, Wang Zheng was more often at fish exhibitions, after all, the income from selling fish this time was related to many of his plans in the future. Of course, in addition to these two things, and the Taoyuan Western restaurant chain will distract Wang Zheng's energy, these days of staying in the hotel, he has received the most invitations to various auctions. Among them are the famous Sotheby's and Christie's!
This kind of thing, after he bought 250 million yuan and bought his Mi Fu "Cursive Poetry Scroll" from Qian honestly, Wang Zheng was already prepared. But I never thought that the momentum would come so violently. Moreover, there are also many brokers from the magic capital antique shop who come to the door to sell.
Although there are nothing too precious, in a few days, Wang Zheng spent 20 million colleagues, and there are more than a dozen third-level antiques in his hands.
The three-day fish show is finally over!
More than a dozen of the top ornamental fish, such as Arowana, Silver Arowana, Red Arowana, Thai Tiger, Red and White Koi, White Ghost Rocket, Black and White Emperor Ray, etc., were unveiled at the exhibition one by one, setting off a huge sensation among fishermen from all over the world, and also ushered in the final climax for Taoyuan Villa.
Auction!
Today, the largest banquet hall of the Grand Hotel is a standard auction venue. Nearly 10 million results have been spent to create the ultimate luxury and perfect auction process.
Although Qian Di was sent by Wang Zheng as the main person in charge of welcoming the guests, as the owner of the villa, Wang Zheng also dressed up to attend this evening.
A private custom suit from Salvi Street in the United Kingdom sets off his tall and toned figure. was originally not an outstanding look, but at this time it is also a little more attractive. In the past year, he has been at the helm of the development of the villa and cultivated the temperament of the superior, so that Wang Zheng at this moment is no longer the 'little person' who wandered at the bottom of the society back then, but is more like a business elite on Wall Street!
Put on the Omiru watch that Shen Bing gave him, looked at himself in the mirror, and after feeling the same, he pushed the door and walked out.
And Wang Ying, who heard the movement outside, stood up.
"Tut, I really answer the old saying, 'A man depends on clothes, and a horse depends on a saddle'. Wang Zheng has changed into this suit now, you will really look like a social elite with a successful career by then!"
After circling around him twice, Wang Ying smiled.
"I don't have time to be blind and poor with you. Let's go, it's almost time!"
"Let's go, I just can't wait!" Wang Ying rubbed his hands. His favorite is this kind of auction house where the rich people 'spend a lot of money'!
"Oh, that's right! Ma Yun's secretary called just now and said that he would come over tonight too!" Wang Ying said suddenly.
"Called you?"
"No, it's a landline to the hotel, but you change clothes in the room, I'll pick it up!"
Wang Zheng nodded clearly, "What time did you say it?"
"I didn't say it, but didn't your auction start at seven o'clock in the evening? I'm sure he'll come over before the auction starts!"
Looking at the time, there was still half an hour before seven o'clock, and Wang Zheng quickened his pace.
His first destination was, of course, the auction hall, where half of the nearly two hundred chairs lined up below were already full of people, in addition to the innermost auction table. Moreover, there is a constant stream of people pouring in from outside.
"So many people?"
Not only Wang Ying was surprised, but even Wang Zheng himself was a little surprised. You know, he specifically instructed Qian Di to remove all the people with assets below 10 million.
And with the powerful ability of the neuronal brain, you can't go wrong. And this means that these people present are worth more than 10 million at the very least.
"Boss!"
Seeing Wang Zheng, who was dealing with the money of a few guests on the side, hurriedly walked over.
"Hmm!" after turning his head slightly, "how many buyers are there?"
"There are 127 bidders in attendance, and another 93 bidders are bidding by telephone! If nothing else is expected, there will be no less than 400 buyers attending our auction tonight!" )
