1002.Accident (3/5)
Wang Bo was lucky, after he accepted the price increase, he only added 1.8 million New Zealand dollars, and no one continued to follow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The white people who participated in the auction saw that the three of them were determined to win this wash, and it would definitely cost a lot of money to win it.
As a result, several people who were interested in pen washing gave up the competition.
Wang Bo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm really afraid that they will continue to offer, if they become enemies with any guy because of this, it will be really interesting." ”
Yang Zhilong said: "No, as long as we reach their psychological price limit, they will give up the auction." After all, there is no conflict between us, and this kind of auction is a way to expand your network and strengthen your relationship, and who will make a feud because of it? ”
Ye Qipeng also said: "Unless we have an enemy who happens to appear at the auction, there will be no problem of malicious bidding." ”
Wang Bo thought of a question and said, "Then why didn't the auction company invite the enemy to the auction?" It's easy to fetch a high price, right? ”
Suddenly, Yang Zhilong and Ye Qipeng looked at him with strange eyes.
Eva couldn't stand it anymore and explained: "If the auction does this, it will offend two customers at once. In addition, it will offend other customers, who are here to search for their favorite artwork instead of watching the revenge war. ”
In the end, they all took what they needed and achieved their goals in this auction.
Wang Bo paid 1.8 million, but he didn't feel distressed, Ye Qipeng just contributed 2 million sewer construction funds to Sunset Town, and he also earned back 200,000 yuan.
But for Yang Zhilong, Wang Bo's contribution is extraordinary.
This can be regarded as a battle between the two sides, winning the victory, feeling like comrades-in-arms, and the relationship is further.
Huang Tingjian's pen wash is regarded as a Chinese heritage, and after paying the money, Ye Qipeng said that it will be donated to the National Museum, of course, in the name of the three people.
Wang Bo really needs such a name, so that he can be regarded as a patriotic overseas Chinese.
Yang Zhilong thanked him very sincerely afterwards, and learned that Ye Qipeng was going to Sunset Town for a short vacation, so he also took a ride and went to Sunset Town to have a look.
Wang Bo stayed in Wellington to prepare for the next day's Anzac Day event.
Originating from the Battle of Gallipoli in World War I, Anzac Day is a common holiday in Australia and New Zealand, with both countries having a holiday to pay tribute to the martyrs on April 25 each year.
In World War I in 1915, the Anzac landed at Gallipoli in the Aegean Bay, but a navigational error caused the regiment to land a mile north of its intended location.
The beaches and slopes, which the army had expected, unexpectedly turned to the bottom of a steep cliff, as a result of which the Turkish defenders, who were very few in number, were in an advantageous position.
As the Anzacs tried to gain a foothold, they found an offensive impossible. After an eight-month stalemate, the coalition retreated, leaving behind tens of thousands of fallen soldiers.
Although, numerically, the Anzac was only a small fraction of the 500,000 coalition forces at the Battle of Gallipoli. But if you consider the population base of the two countries at the time, New Zealand had about a million people who fought overseas, and they had the highest casualties and mortality rates in terms of population of all the countries involved in the war.
Australia is also unambiguous, they have the highest casualty rate in this war.
Early in the morning, at dawn, Wang Bo changed into a solemn suit and went to the government to meet the Green Party team.
Eva also wore a black suit, black tights, and a gauze hat for aristocratic women, which was popular in Europe during the First World War, as a nod to the era.
The worship service begins at dawn, usually half an hour before sunrise, because it was at dawn that the Battle of Gallipoli was fought at the New Zealand National Cemetery, where everyone marched to the cemetery in a procession.
Also participating in the event were veterans of the war, especially the World War II veterans, who were the most respected group of the day, wearing vintage military uniforms and medals, and elderly people with leg problems riding in jeeps and walking at the front of the queue.
The jeeps that the veterans ride are also particular, all of them are Willis jeeps of the US military during World War II, and I don't know where the New Zealand government found so many classic cars, in short, they formed a queue.
Anzac Day was a big day in New Zealand, and the British royal family sent people to attend the event, including Princess Eugenie and Hugo Lancaster, whom Wang Bo had met, who came to mourn the fallen warriors on behalf of the royal family.
Speaking of which, the soldiers of Australia and New Zealand are indeed quite unlucky, the First and Second World Wars had nothing to do with them, it was a war in the northern hemisphere.
It was only because of their relationship with Britain that they had to send a large number of soldiers to the war, and the British understood this and sent members of the royal family to participate in the commemoration.
Wang Bo is the most unbelongable person in the marching crowd, the number of Chinese soldiers and people who died in World War II is the largest in the world, he has some interest in paying tribute to the Chinese heroes, as for the martyrs of New Zealand? That's none of his business.
However, he was called to the front of the parade, because Hugo Lancaster remembered him and specially called him over to have a chat together.
Except for the veterans, everyone else walked, and Princess Eugenie was no exception.
Wang Bo saluted when he saw her, and Princess Eugenie smiled very softly and said, "Hello, Mayor Wang, it's a pleasure to see you again, I hope you and my fiancé can get along well, he is not a good person." ”
There was a hint of a smile on Hugo Lancaster's handsome face, and his lines were a little stiff, he wasn't a very good person at showing his feelings.
"It's been a long time since we separated, is Gerald okay?" Lancaster asked bluntly.
Wang Bodao: "I think he should be good, he has joined the police team of our Sunset Town, he is doing very well, and he is now in charge of training military dogs." ”
Hearing this, Lancaster smiled much brighter than before: "Ha, you are a man of vision, Mayor Wang, Gerald will definitely be up to the job, he likes dogs more than ......"
Before he finished his words, Wang Bo suddenly noticed some people rushing out of the side alley.
The procession took one of Wellington's main streets, ending at the National Cemetery, which was lined with lanes and alleys from which these people had run.
The timing of their appearance happened to be when the convoy of veterans passed through the intersection, and dozens of big men rushed into the convoy shirtless and raised the flags in their hands.
The men were covered in paint, and their chests and backs were colorful, with protest slogans written on them.
Wang Bo didn't care to see clearly, and after he noticed that these people appeared, he immediately knew that there was a problem with the parade.
The veterans in front couldn't react, and someone jumped into a jeep, startling the veterans above.
Wang Bo hurriedly rushed up, dragged the big man down, and shouted, "Get back!" ”
