Zhang Tianyuan was very puzzled, when he came here, basically according to the time, the auction should be about to start, just sat here for a while and chatted for a long time, looking at the time, twenty minutes have passed, and it hasn't started yet.

Are you waiting for someone?

He was about to turn his head to ask Zheng Jiayi, but suddenly found that the entire hall was quiet, Sir Tomaru, Li Shoufu, Guo Lao, Zheng Zong and Li Zong all stood up and walked towards the door.

Zhang Tianyuan was a little shocked in his heart, these people are the most prominent people in Hong Kong, who is such a big shelf? Not only is he late, but he also wants Sir Tom Maru and these bigwigs to greet him together?

With that in mind, he stood up and looked towards the door.

It's him?

Zhang Tianyuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, the first person who entered the door was actually Commander Nie of the Hong Kong Garrison, this person he had seen, just a few days ago, in the imperial capital Nie Lao's house. It was a relative of Nie Lao, this time Zhang Tianyuan came to Hong Kong, and the car was borrowed from him, and this Commander Nie was very enthusiastic about him, and said that he would let him grow up here to play.

He was naturally happy to see his acquaintance, and was about to go over to say hello, but saw two more people coming behind him, good guy, this is really more powerful than the other. The latter two, one is actually the wife of the chief executive, and the other is Director Peng of the Liaison Office of the Central People's Government, which used to be the Hong Kong branch of the Xinhua News Agency, which is the highest administrative organ of the Central Committee in Hong Kong.

The Chief Executive was unable to come to a banquet for foreign guests today, so he asked the Chief Executive's wife to come. There's no way around it, otherwise. Today's charity auction is really lively.

"I'm sorry, sir, and a few old friends. There is a meeting that has been delayed today, so it is a little late, it will not affect everyone, right?" Director Peng immediately shook Tang Maru's hand after coming in, and then looked at Li Shoufu and the others nodded and said slightly apologetically.

And Commander Nie, who was dressed in military uniform, also smiled and shook hands with several people separately, there is no need to salute here, after all, there is no one here who is a soldier.

On behalf of the Chief Executive, the Chief Executive's wife conveyed her apologies and greetings. and hugged Sir Tomajo.

When Zhang Tianyuan saw this situation, he didn't want to go over to greet Commander Nie, so he simply stood up and applauded like other young people.

After a few old men and the three of them were polite, they all sat down, the champagne and red wine had been served, Sir Tomaru stood up with a glass of red wine in his hand and saluted all the guests around him, and then said: "The people who came are all friends, and they are all giving me face as an old man from England, and I have delayed everyone for some time." So now the charity auction will officially begin, this time the charity funds will be used to solve the problem of students in the mountainous areas to go to school, mainly for the mainland, so let's start. ”

Because it's a private auction. So there is not so much attention, Tang Maru did not invite the master of ceremonies, but presided over it himself. In addition, I hired a professional auctioneer, after all, I did the auction. The auctioneer must also have formal qualifications, otherwise the name will not be justified. It's also illegal, and this can't be messed around.

During the auction, they were all spoken in Cantonese, and Zhang Tianyuan couldn't understand it, so he wasn't interested in the previous words and the auctioneer's polite words at all.

However, it is indeed a trouble to not know Cantonese, and there are still a lot of times in Hong Kong in the future, so it is better to learn it, so as not to always understand it, which is too annoying.

Just when he had a headache, Sir Tom discussed it with a few old people nearby, and then Zheng Jiayi was invited to the stage, and all she had to do was to translate what the auctioneer said in Mandarin.

Probably considering that Commander Nie doesn't know Cantonese either, many of the friends who came here today don't know Cantonese either, and it is really not convenient to use Cantonese alone.

"Okay, we're going to auction the first lot. This is the garment worn by Sir Thomas when he was honoured by the Queen of England, and he wore it once, and then it was treasured. The fabrics and workmanship of the clothes are definitely among the best in the world, but our auction is not of course because of its value, but because of its commemorative significance. ”

This passage was translated by Zheng Jiayi, Zhang Tianyuan listened to it very well, it's not that he has any prejudice against Cantonese, it's just that you are used to hearing a language, and if you don't understand it, you will definitely feel that you can't understand anything, and it will definitely be uncomfortable if you don't understand it.

"I hope you will remember that we are having a charity auction tonight, and our things may not be the best or the most expensive, but the meaning it brings is extraordinary, and every penny of it will be used to bring hope to the children. We are giving love, not trading! So according to Sir Thomas Maro's opinion after consultation with the auctioneers, all lots will be auctioned at zero yuan, and they will be worth as much as your love is!"

This is quite good, for people who come here, they will definitely not be greedy for a few hundred yuan, or even thousands of dollars to buy something, this is a high-end charity auction in the real sense, people who come here, at least a billion dollars, if you are not afraid of being embarrassed, you can try to pay a few hundred yuan.

"I paid 100,000 yuan! For love, of course, I was very interested in this dress of Sir Knight. "This man is very good at talking, and he shows his love and pleases Sir Thomas Maro, and whether it has any effect is another story, but in any case, he always tried.

The lots in the charity auction are different from other auctions, the things here are real or fake, good or bad, of course you can go to the appraisal afterwards, but you can never identify the scene, this is a matter of principle.

Of course, under normal circumstances, no one dares to auction fake things on this occasion, otherwise it will be exposed afterwards, which is not only embarrassing, but it is very likely that you will never want to mix in this circle again, and you will really be excluded.

Why did the couple Zhang Tianyuan meet before thank Zhang Tianyuan for his kindness? It was because Zhang Tianyuan saw in advance that the porcelain jar was a fake and a high imitation. In this way, they will not lose face afterwards, and they will also lose business.

Just because there is no time for the identification of things at charity auctions. So when the auctioneer finishes talking, it's basically time to place a bid. If you don't show for a long time, it's also disrespectful to the organizers. And to shout the price. That must also be shouted higher, the zero yuan bottom price of things, directly called 100,000 yuan, this is definitely not a small amount, but the person who asked the price will definitely not feel distressed, because 100,000 yuan is really nothing for the people here, to be able to make friends, and even to know those old people. That's the real blessing.

Zhang Tianyuan is not very interested in the clothes worn by others, let alone those worn by Tang Maru, even if it is a golden jade dress, he is not very interested, although it is also an antique, but he just doesn't like it.

So he didn't even bother to look at this dress. If he really wanted to do it, he would have done it, because he didn't have to go up at all. As long as you look at it with the word appreciation trick, you will know whether this thing is worth anything and whether you can bid or not. Just because someone else can't do it doesn't mean he can't. Otherwise, what is the use of the six-character true formula? Although this living room is not small, even if it is two hundred meters away, he only needs to use the two abilities of investigation and perspective. It's simple, you don't even need a telescope.

The problem is that he is not interested in the dress. So I didn't look at it. However, Wang Siyuan, who had already sat back, looked very interested and bumped him with his arm. Let him help identify it. Zhang Tianyuan said in his heart that Wang Siyuan is good to himself, so let's take a look.

So he raised his eyes and examined the garment, and found that it was a very good garment if it had not been worn. Even if it was worn, the mezzanine of the clothes was actually made of special platinum, and the buttons on the clothes were actually beautiful sapphires, although the texture was not as good as the sapphire watch in his hand, but it was quite good.

What's more, the dragon appearance of this dress actually shows the appearance of the Qing Dynasty, if it is expected, this dress is indeed some age, it is estimated that not only Sir Tomaru wore it, but also his ancestors, it is really an old object.

Purely in terms of its own value, this dress is definitely worth 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. This is only the value of the goods themselves, if you add that this is a charity auction, even if this dress is auctioned for 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, it is actually normal.

Alas, if it hadn't been worn, I would have bought it, forget it now, the right should be fulfilled Wang Siyuan.

Thinking of this, he nodded at Wang Siyuan.

At the time of Zhang Tianyuan's appraisal, the price of clothes went up again.

"One hundred and fifty thousand!"

"Two hundred thousand!"

"Two hundred and sixty thousand!"

By the time he finished his appraisal and nodded at Wang Siyuan, it was already 270,000, and it began to rise a little slowly, but Zhang Tianyuan believed that most of these bidders didn't know the true value of this dress, and they did it just because they wanted to please Sir Tomaru.

When it came to 270,000, Zhang Tianyuan wanted to persuade Wang Siyuan not to bid, he had never participated in a charity auction, but he didn't expect that the atmosphere of this charity auction would be richer than a regular auction.

Before he could persuade Wang Siyuan, Wang Siyuan had already shouted out the price: "300,000!"

"Okay, I know this prince, he is the son of a famous real estate tycoon in the mainland! Okay, you have courage and love, you bought this dress, not only to buy a piece of top-notch workmanship, but also to send hope to many children!" the auctioneer smiled.

Then, Zheng Jiayi translated his words, and Zhang Tianyuan was shocked when he heard it, Wang Siyuan, this kid is not famous.

The auctioneer's simple words seemed to be praising Wang Siyuan, but in fact he was slapping the rest of the people in the face. Young people from all over the mainland dare to give so much love, do you super-rich people still have to do nothing? Don't forget, this is not a business, this is pure love.

So below, 300,000 can't be stopped.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand!"

"Three hundred and seventy thousand!"

"Four hundred thousand!"

This price is basically three times the value of the clothes themselves! But for the charity auction, this is really not a problem, and it was Wang Siyuan who shouted this price in the end.

This time, most of them were middle-aged men and women, and among the young people, Li Nanting and Wang Siyuan shouted the price, but in the end, Wang Siyuan took the things. (To be continued......)
