Under Monica's leadership, Li Dacheng has visited several famous cities in Europe, deepened his understanding of these cities, and strengthened his belief in entering the international market.

Compared with the mixed domestic auction market, the foreign auction market is more professional and mature, and the various stripe regulations are very complete, so that speculators and troublemakers have nothing to do.

Although Li Dacheng's reputation among his domestic peers is not good, he is actually a person who likes to do things according to the rules, which allows him to devote more energy to the company's operation, without having to pay attention to those messy trivial matters, even if he leaves one day, he can leave with peace of mind without worrying.

"This is the famous Dirk auction house in Europe, with a history of 100 years, and it is also the auction house with the closest relationship with our family. Pointing to a five-story building on a bustling commercial street, Monica said to Li Dacheng beside her, "The treasures salvaged by the fleet from the bottom of the sea will be entrusted to this auction company, and the partnership has been around for decades. ”

Li Dacheng listened to what Monica said, while looking at the high-rise buildings across the street, although Milan is known as the fashion capital, but the streets and alleys are full of ancient buildings, it is really not easy to find a skyscraper, the auction company in front of him is no exception, said to be a cultural monument Li Dacheng believes that the problem is that after so many years of baptism, the building does not seem to have any damage, and people have to marvel at the protection of cultural history here, and the building is not a part of cultural history?

"Let's go. Monica was about to leave with Li Dacheng, in fact, the purpose of her coming to Milan had nothing to do with the auction, she just wanted Li Dacheng to walk around with her, that is, to go shopping, after all, this is the base camp of the world's top clothing, how can she not stop and walk around when passing by? Although she has not been here before, but one person and two people, the concept is completely different, and the mood is completely different.

"Wait. Li Dacheng stood still and didn't move, and Monica couldn't pull him.

"What's wrong?" asked Monica.

Li Dacheng squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "It's all here, if you just leave, isn't it a little bad?"

"Huh?" Monica asked, confused, "What do you want to do?"

"Go in and have a look, of course. Li Dacheng said naturally, "Not only can I spy on the enemy's situation, but I can also visit and learn, why not?"

"You, you don't want to smash the field, do you?" Monica said vigilantly, "I know, you are known as the little prince of smashing in your Huaxia auction world. ”

I rub!

Li Dacheng was stunned, he didn't expect that his reputation had already spread abroad, and it was really a good thing not to go out, but a bad thing to spread thousands of miles. "What kind of smashing the field, that's called communication. Li Dacheng corrected seriously, "It's just that they lost during the exchange, so they deliberately smeared my tall and glorious image." ”

"Really?" Monica looked at Li Dacheng with a smile, in the more than a year in the manor, she studied Chinese culture when she was fine, and her understanding of Huaxia has also improved by leaps and bounds, and it is not easy to deceive her.

"Of course, I am a hot figure in our Chinese antique circle, who doesn't give a thumbs up when talking about us? Alas, a person as good as me is indeed easy to be slandered by my peers, because I robbed them of their jobs, which is easy to understand. Li Dacheng explained innocently.

"Do you want to come to the 'exchange' today?" asked Monica.

"No, no, as I just said, I'm just here to visit and learn, and I don't have the idea of communicating. ”

"But if you go in in the name you just said, I'm afraid you'll be blasted out. ”

"Then in the name of the customer. Li Dacheng stretched out his hand and took it out of his body, and finally took out a gold coin from his pocket, "How about entrusting this gold coin to them?"

"That's pretty much it. Monica nodded, as if she was afraid that Li Dacheng would cause trouble, and instructed, "Remember, don't make trouble, otherwise it will be very troublesome if you are arrested by the police." ”

"Understood. After Li Dacheng agreed, he felt that the other party's words sounded a little wrong, was he so worry-free?

The two crossed the road and entered the Dirk Auction Company, as soon as they entered the door, Li Dacheng was stunned for a moment, because the inside was completely different from what he imagined, before coming here, he had been to some other local buildings in Lanmi, which were either magnificent or luxurious, but the decoration here was very simple, there was no complicated decoration, and there was no excessive decoration, everything looked very coordinated and natural, and the person standing at the front desk was not a young beauty, but an elderly white-haired bald old man, wearing a high-end black suit, standing there meticulously, full of housekeeper image。

"He's Nino, the head of security at Dirk Auction Company. Monica whispered to Li Dacheng, "But don't underestimate this person, his understanding of artworks is not under those professional connoisseurs, and even more powerful in some aspects, he has a unique skill, anyone who brings artworks in and out of here, as long as he glances at them, he can know the age and value of artworks, whether they are true or false." ”

"So godly?" Li Dacheng looked surprised, he knew a lot of experts, but no one had ever dared to boast about such a Haikou, wouldn't those eyes be more powerful than professional testing instruments?

"It's true, and you can't guess how long he's been standing in that position. Monica said mysteriously.

"How long?" asked Li Dacheng curiously.

"Fifty years!" Monica said.

Fifty years?

Li Dacheng gasped when he heard this, is it a bit overkill to have such a powerful ability, he has worked in the position of security supervisor for 50 years? Isn't it the duty of the security supervisor to ensure the safety of the company's personnel and treasures?

"What is his relationship with this auction house?" asked Li Dacheng, his intuition telling him that such a person would never be willing to be just a security supervisor if there was no special reason.

"Clever, I even thought of this. Monica said with a smile, "He is the son-in-law of the Dirk family, and his wife is the second daughter of the Dirk family, and she is very famous in the local area of Rummy. ”

"No wonder. Li Dacheng nodded, but his eyes kept flashing, and he really wanted to take the old man for himself.

If you can stand such a god in your own auction house, the grade will immediately rise to a higher level.

"What's the matter?" Monica asked in a whisper when she saw Li Dacheng's sparkling eyes.

"Who can not be tempted by such a person. Li Dacheng said sincerely.

"It's useless, as far as I know, many people have come to poach him, and even promised him higher treatment, but he refused all, so you should die of this heart. Monica said that she didn't have much hope for Li Dacheng, this is not a blow, but seeking truth from facts.

"Hehe, how can you know if you can't do it if you don't try?" Li Dacheng said and walked over from the old man.

Monica looked at Li Dacheng's back and shook her head, she admired the other party's character of facing difficulties and becoming more and more courageous, however, there is a saying in Huaxia that the one who knows the times is Junjie, and she feels that the other party is a little ......

"Hello, sir, what can I do for you?" the old man looked at Li Dacheng and said with a light smile, very polite, but very measured, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Hello, Mr. Nino. Monica caught up with Li Dacheng and looked at the old man's smiling greeting.

"Miss Monica, you are still so beautiful, I have seen you when you enter the door, you are like the first rays of the dawn, every time you see it, it is so amazing......"

Li Dacheng stood in place stunned, this old man is very lascivious, he said a set of compliments, no need to ask, he must have been a romantic character when he was young.

"Mr. Nino, this is my friend, you can call him Mr. Li, he has a treasure, I hope to be able to entrust your Dirk Auction Company to auction it. Monica said politely.

"Thank you, Miss Monica, it's my honor to serve Mr. Lee, Mr. Luthor is in the office, Miss Monica can take this gentleman up. The old man said politely.

"No, I just want you to show me. Li Dacheng said to the old man, then put his hand in his pocket, took out a golden gold coin, flicked his thumb lightly, and the gold coin drew a beautiful arc in the air, fell on the table at the front desk, and fell down after a circle. "Let's talk about this gold coin. ”

The old man glanced at it lightly, his face suddenly showed a little difference, and said in surprise, "This is an Edward III florin coin, issued in Britain in 1343, with a history of more than 600 years, to this day, there are only three coins of this type in existence, two are kept in the British Museum, and the remaining one is in a private collection, your ......" The old man looked at Li Dacheng and asked, "Shouldn't you be the collector of the third coin?"

Li Dacheng smiled, but shook his head and said, "I'm not a collector of the third coin. ”

"Is this ...... The fourth?" said the old man in surprise, he had stood in this position for more than fifty years, and he had seen a lot of all kinds of treasures, but he still couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"Let's just say that. Li Dacheng said that he still has a few such coins in his hand, which are the rarest coins he has salvaged from the bottom of the sea, as long as he doesn't take out the other coins, then the one he is holding in his hand now is indeed the fourth one, "I don't know what price this gold coin can be auctioned?"

"The third gold coin was last seen more than a decade ago, when it was worth $6.8 million, and since then, there has been no detailed appearance of such a coin on the market, so in my judgment, it will be worth at least $6.8 million more, in the range of eight million to nine million, or even higher. The old man measured the gold coin, and finally couldn't help but take out a glove from his pocket and put it on, took the gold coin in his hand and looked at it carefully, nodded while looking at it, and finally put the gold coin back on his face, looked at Li Dacheng and asked, "Mr. Li, do you really plan to auction it? You must know that its collection value is very high." ”

"What, do you want to push off the business you have in hand?"

"No, I just think you'll probably regret it in the future. ”

Interesting!

Li Dacheng smiled, if it was someone else, he should try his best to persuade him to entrust the baby to the company for auction, but the other party didn't seem to be enthusiastic, could it be that this is also a tactic?

"Do you like this gold coin?" asked Li Dacheng, the old man's eyes kept staring at the gold coin, and even Monica, who had praised it before, was put aside.

"Yes, it is not only beautifully made and scarce, but it also has a high historical and artistic value. The old man didn't hide it, and nodded very simply.

"Well, if I give it to you, the price is that you come with me, are you willing?" Li Dacheng said with a smile, while staring intently into the other party's eyes, hoping to see something from it.

"Coming with you?" The old man slowly raised his head, and finally transferred the matter from the gold coin to Li Dacheng's face, with a little doubt in his eyes.

Monica on the side kept tugging at Li Dacheng's clothes with her hands, and gave the other party a look, digging people is not like this, don't be so naked, okay? At least find a place to sit down, have a drink, and talk slowly.

"Yes, come with me. Li Dacheng said very honestly, "In fact, I am the owner of an auction company, and I am recently preparing to open a branch in Europe, and I have begun to prepare for it in the United Kingdom, and it will not be long before it opens. ”

Monica covered her eyes with her hands, oh my God, what are you talking about, she suddenly felt that the other party was not here to visit and study, but to smash the field.

"Thank you, sir, for your kindness, but I won't go, and since Miss Monica has told you about me, she should know my relationship with this place. The old man said lightly, his face did not show the slightest interest, even the gold coin that was used as a meeting gift seemed to be worthless in his eyes at this time.

"I know, but I don't think it's going to be a good thing to be plugged in. Li Dacheng said with a smile, "Otherwise, with your ability, you wouldn't be just a security supervisor, standing here doing this kind of rough work." ”

The old man's eyelids jumped suddenly, and his wrinkled face immediately straightened.
