It turned out to be a painting by Picasso!

You must know that almost every painting left by Picasso is now precious

took it out for auction, and each pair was claimed to be sky-high.

However, such a valuable painting is casually pasted on the wall.

This is wealth, this is the local tyrant!

Next, Harvey saw paintings by other painters on the walls. Picasso, Van Gogh...... He was numb in the end.

"No wonder everyone says that every time Jinli Auction House auctions something, there is no unsold and cheap ......"

Harvey sighed, that's right, it's not easy to be able to hang these paintings on the wall casually without auctioning, and if you can participate in the auction.

On each invitation, there is a seat number, and Harvey's seat number is H12.

The design of the auction hall is a bit like a small venue, the front row of seats, numbered A1, A2, etc., and then in alphabetical order, Harvey counted backwards, yes, there are only eight rows, and the last seat is H.

And what shocked Harvey the most was that Winer and the woman were only sitting in the second row, B3 and B4. He now knew in his heart that in this Jinli auction house, he didn't look at anything else, just a little money!

The seating order is ranked according to personal assets, and Wener has billions of assets to be able to sit in the second row...... In other words, wouldn't the person who wants to sit in row A seat be worth at least tens of billions?

Thinking of this, Harvey felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart, and secretly scolded: "TM's ......" In recent years, people have paid more and more attention to the concepts of green food, food safety, and food health.

Harvey, who owns several farms, seized the opportunity to set up a factory, focusing on green and organic food, and got on the fast train of development.

Due to the raw material base, the profits of Harvey's agricultural products factory are so staggering that in just two years or so, his assets have jumped from 10 million euros to hundreds of millions of euros, which is dozens of times.

This huge change, first of all, made his mentality completely different from before.

The unbridled gift of wealth made him begin to become arrogant, his eyes were above the top, he no longer looked down on many people, and he walked with his chin held high and his nostrils turned to the sky.

But arrogance is arrogance, Harvey also knows one thing Although he has money, but in terms of class, he still belongs to the people who have just been lifted out of poverty, in the eyes of those upper-class people, he is still just a bun, so there are many times, there are obviously some good opportunities, but the other party is not very willing to cooperate with him.

Harvey told his troubles to a friend who also made a fortune from running a farm and was worth billions, and he showed Harvey a way, that is, to participate in the auction of Jinli Auction House.

His friend's exact words were as follows: "...... Jinli Auction House holds an auction every six months, you can go to participate, show your face on it, it is best to be able to auction an antique auction item, so that everyone has an impression of your name, mix your face familiarly, and then slowly enter this circle. ”

"Jinli Auction House, is it really so powerful?" Hearing his words, Harvey was a little skeptical.

"Of course, I'll give you an example, everyone plays together somewhere, forming a circle with each other, but this circle is more exclusive to outsiders, if you want to integrate into this circle, either find someone to introduce you to play together, or simply go in and play by yourself, Jinli Auction House You can see it as a circle, as long as you go in to play, everyone will naturally see you."

"Okay!"

Hearing his friend's words, Harvey knew in his heart, isn't it just to buy an auction item, a little meaning. In his opinion, as long as he spends tens of millions, can't he buy an auction item?

So, Harvey came with confidence.

But now, Harvey's self-confidence, as he got to know more and more about this Jinli auction house, and knew what kind of people were sitting here, his confidence, unconsciously, was gone.

After sitting in his seat, Harvey smiled and whispered hello to a few people who had already arrived next to him, and they were very polite to each other.

Similarly, those people also know that the people who can enter this Jinli auction house to participate in the auction, even the people sitting in the back row H, are worth about hundreds of millions, so they are all smiling and very polite and warm to each other.

The next step is to exchange business cards.

"Mr. Harvey, you're in the produce business?" A young white man looked at Harvey's business card, looked very interested, and whispered: "After the auction is over in a while, is there time?" Let's go for a cup of coffee? He offered to extend the invitation.

"Okay." Harvey nodded and smiled, "I'm honored, of course I have time." In his heart for a moment, he suddenly understood the meaning of what his friend said before, as long as he entered this Jinli auction house, his business would develop, and he would be able to make more friends at the same time.

……

"Guys, we don't have to go to the scene."

In a box not far from the auction hall, Zuo Jian, Angelier, Mike, Will and Baker and others sat in a box, and in front of them was a large screen, which showed the scene in the auction room.

This is used to observe the situation in the auction room.

The sound insulation of the box is very good, and the equipment used is also very good, so the sound in the auction room can be heard very real and clear.

“…… Gentlemen, ladies and friends are welcome to come to our Jinli Auction House and participate in our semi-annual auction. ”

The auctioneer in a suit and leather shoes walked to the high platform in front of the auction hall with a smile on his face, and said loudly: "First of all, let me introduce the rules of the auction, first, each price increase is not allowed to be lower than the minimum price required by the auction, second, the highest bidder will get, third, if no one raises the bid three times, the auction will be sold ......"

He said a few words and began to enter the auction link.

"The first item we put up auction today is a work of art......"

……

In the box, everyone except Vir watched with interest and intently.

In particular, Annouliet and Mike, who had never participated in an auction before, knew about this form before, but they had only seen it in books and had never experienced it in person, so they were very interested.

"The reserve price of the first auction item is 8 million euros, and each increase must not be less than 1 million euros, now please start bidding for those who are interested......"

As soon as the auctioneer's words fell, Xavi, who was sitting in row H, was the first to raise his hand and shouted without humility or arrogance: "Twenty million euros!" ”

There was an instant silence in the room.

Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and looked at Harvey who raised his hand.

That's exactly what Harvey wants.

After knowing the situation of the people who participated in the auction today, Harvey has been thinking in his heart, how can he show himself?

Something too expensive, Harvey didn't dare to think of, maybe even if he broke the bank, he couldn't afford it. So Xavi made a plan, that is, to increase the price by up to 80 million euros, about one-third of his property, and the other is that when he bids the price for the first time, he must double or even triple the premium, rather than slowly increasing according to the reserve price.

On the one hand, directly carry out two to three times the premium, take the lead, even if you can't shoot, you can attract everyone's attention, and at the same time you can show your momentum.

"Twenty million euros!"

As soon as Harvey's words fell, the auctioneer on the stage glanced at him, showed a smile, and said with a smile: "Mr. Harvey has shouted 20 million euros, Mr. Harvey's vision is very good, this auction item has a very high collection value, I believe that in more than ten years, it will definitely become a hand-me-down ......"

Mr. Harvey?

Hearing the auctioneer's words, Harvey was stunned, and his first thought was, how could he accurately call out his name?

But when I think about it, before such a tall auction begins, the auctioneer's job is not only to understand today's auction items, but obviously, to remember the names of everyone who participated in the auction, and it is not difficult to know this, because as far as the eye can see, only 50 people can sit in this auction hall, and with a little thought, you can remember everyone's name.

As for the names of these people, hehe, when the invitation was sent, they already knew it.

After thinking clearly, Harvey felt a burst of joy in his heart, because, in this way, he can achieve his goal and let more people know and know himself.

"The rules of this auction are so pleasing to men......" Harvey thought to himself.

Imagine that if no one auctions an item, the auctioneer will read his name aloud three times in a row on the stage, and finally, announce himself as the winner.

This is an out-and-out advertisement!

However, Xavi's thoughts were not finished, and then, a person not far from him raised his arm and said slowly: "Forty million euros!" ”

"Forty million! Forty million euros! ”

The auctioneer shouted loudly, his eyes fell on the man who was shouting for 40 million euros, his name appeared in his mind, and said with a smile: "This is an offer from Mr. de Gaulle, who specializes in mining machinery and equipment business, I have heard the name of Mr. de Gaulle's company, their company equipment, known for its specialization, safety, high efficiency, good quality and other characteristics, well, next, is there anyone bidding?" ”
