A delicious white truffle feast, after eating, everyone is too lazy to move.

Those chefs left after lunch, and they couldn't buy it anyway, so they might as well go back and take care of the business in their restaurant.

No one walked empty-handed. Liu Yunxuan gave everyone a gift package of the pastoral company, all kinds of fruits, vegetables and meat, which was used as compensation for this trip in vain.

"Edward, take the truffles with you when you leave, it's the right time to sell them at this time." Liu Yunxuan looked at Edward and said with a smile.

"Xuanzi, how much are you going to auction this time? I'll have to go with him, it's a tall place. The fat man rubbed his hands and said.

"Pick up the big Nabei, by the way, pick out two pieces of more than a kilogram and send them to Mansour next time." After Liu Yunxuan finished speaking, he looked at Kroenke again.

"Kroenke, you also go over and pick a piece, go home and have a good taste with Ann. Don't follow the big truffle this time, we are our own people, so we don't need to waste this money. ”

The relationship with Kroenke has been very good over the years, and Kroenke has always supported himself when he encountered things, but he has never given any decent gifts.

"Hey, then you're welcome, Mansour isn't here, I was the one Lambert found the most." Kroenke nodded, and said with some regret.

Walker, who has stayed here and never left, heard this helplessness, and he was really tired of having a local tyrant competing with him for ingredients.

People are not bad for money at all, and this is what they love. Over the years, I have met a lot one after another, and some of them can still fight for a while, but Liu Yunxuan's side is not even qualified to compete.

"Alright, Walker, I can't let you come for nothing. Besides, these white truffles will grow here because of your relationship, those that exceed 500 grams, you can pick 10 pieces, and give me 400,000 US dollars. Liu Yunxuan looked at the anxious Walker on the side and said with a smile.

Walker is a good guy on his side, and without him there would be no white truffles. But you can't give it to him for nothing, the friendship hasn't reached that point yet. It's cheaper, just let him go back and strengthen the façade.

"Haha, thank you Andy, I knew you wouldn't forget me." Walker said happily, looking like that, he almost ran over and hugged Liu Yunxuan and kissed him.

"Boss, Mr. Briggs said that he will come over soon and discuss this auction with you." That's when Jack came over and reported.

Now I am familiar with Briggs on Sotheby's International, and it is more convenient to contact him if I want to hold an auction on their side.

"I don't know if it's time this time. If not, I'm afraid we'll have to worry about it ourselves, and it's wrong if the quality is too good. Liu Yunxuan nodded and said with a wry smile.

This time, the quality of the white truffles was as good as he expected. Originally, he thought that it would be almost enough, keeping some for himself and some for the restaurant, and leaving the rest to these restaurants and Walker.

I didn't think it would be so good that it couldn't be sold. Sotheby's auction house is a big company, and people have to advertise everything in advance for auctions, and they will go in with their own gas. It's really hard to say.

The children were idle, and after a little rest, they went to play with the big boar. They don't have time to care about how you sell your white truffles. People care about eating and playing.

Liu Yunxuan and the others also prepared and screened out the white truffles available for auction. It's a lot, anyway, it's just picking up the big ones, and it's useless to keep so much at home.

Except for those that are sold, kept at home, and used in restaurants. Those who can still go over to be auctioned, the first two levels, they are all selected. Sixty were selected between 1,000 and 1,500 grams, and 180 were selected for the most between 500 grams and 1,000 kilograms.

Look at the truffles that sit on the soil of the incubator. Everyone was a little excited. If the auction is successful this time, it will be a lot of money.

Don't look at the fact that Liu Yunxuan provides more of these superb white truffles, but it is precisely because of the number that these people can better attract these people to come and buy.

There are so many white truffles in the world, and the reason why every time a large truffle appears, it will fetch a lot of money, is because there are so few occurrences. Especially in today's climate, it is difficult to get the best white truffles.

Those who can prepare to attack these white truffles must not be bad for money, and they will not go to the auction with the idea of picking up leaks.

And just like the red wine sold in the restaurant, there are many people who can buy it, maybe Liu Yunxuan may smash his own price if he has a few hundred yuan, these dozens of yuan, among the many buyers, really don't have much impact.

Briggs arrived just as quickly, along with the marketing director of Sotheby's, Gangotina.

After hearing Briggs's introduction, Liu Yunxuan was very confused. He couldn't figure out why he had only auctioned a slightly better white truffle once, and how it had alarmed the top of Sotheby's. Briggs didn't need to help herself so much.

"I didn't expect Mr. Kroenke to be here, so you didn't go to the auctions this time." After greeting Liu Yunxuan, Gangotina said to Kroenke.

"I don't have much interest in the ones I like. But since you arrived at Sotheby's, the performance has improved a lot, and this time Van Gogh's paintings sold for a lot of money. Kroenke said with a shrug of his shoulders.

Although the two knew each other a little unexpectedly, they both belonged to the celebrity circle, and it was normal for them to know each other.

"Mr. Andy, this time I received a message from Briggs saying that you have white truffles here and are going to our company for auction, can you let me take a look?" After greeting him, Gangotina asked.

"It's normal, it's in the box in the back, wait for me to open it for you." Liu Yunxuan nodded and said.

A row of large truffles was quietly placed in the box, and Gangotina and Briggs looked at each other and nodded, before they said to Liu Yunxuan again.

"Mr. Andy, can we hold this auction the day after tomorrow? It's too late tomorrow. And we will return all the premium of this auction to you, what do you think? ”

"Premium? What premium? It doesn't matter how much you shoot, even if you shoot less. Liu Yunxuan waved his hand and said.

These white truffles are the best of the best, so I won't give them a price limit. The kind of thing that will be distributed to them after agreeing on the reserve price, I don't do it, and I am very confident in these white truffles.

"Gangotina, Andy hasn't been in contact with auctions before, so you better make it clear to him." Kroenke said with a smile after listening to Liu Yunxuan's words.

At this time, Liu Yunxuan also found that it seemed to be misunderstood, because Robert was also blinking vigorously over there.

"Mr. Andy, I'm sorry I didn't make it clear." Gangotina said with a smile, and then explained.

"By premium, I mean the commission that the buyer will have to pay in the future after closing. We charge 25% for lots that sell for $100,000 or less, 20% for lots that sell for $100,000 to $2 million, and 12% for lots that sell for $2 million or more. ”

"It's me who should say I'm sorry, I misunderstood." Liu Yunxuan said with some embarrassment. However, he also has some slander in his heart, it is really dark enough, and the commission ratio is very high.

But he is even more confused now, he doesn't know why this Sotheby's auction house takes such good care of him, not to mention helping himself to expedite the auction arrangement, and also giving all these commissions to himself, not only because he is more handsome, but also because he is more familiar with Briggs.

But no matter why, anyway, if they dare to give themselves a discount, they dare to ask for it, and they don't ask for it themselves, don't want it in vain.

"Mr. Andy, that's right, this time I invited Gangotina to come over, first, to discuss the auction of these white truffles, and the other is to ask, can those handmade red wines in the winery be handed over to us for auction when they are sold in the future?" Briggs on the side hesitated for a moment and said.

When he said this, Liu Yunxuan understood, they were interested in the hand-brewed red wine in their cellar.

"Briggs, I don't understand, it's going to be a long time before those wines are bottled and sold, and they won't be produced in large quantities." Liu Yunxuan expressed the doubts in his heart.

"Mr. Andy, your red wine is being brewed every year, and when this batch of handcrafted red wine goes on sale, there will be a different red wine output every year. If you think our auction is okay, we can continue to work together. Briggs said with a smile.

He has a lot of contact with Liu Yunxuan, and he also knows some of Liu Yunxuan's character. Don't like to beat around the bush so much, if you cooperate, you have to make it clear.

"Mr. Andy, if you hand over the wine to us for exclusive auction in the future, we will have a different return in terms of premium." Gangotina also said on the side.

Liu Yunxuan thought about it for a while, Sotheby's is a very famous auction house in the world, and people's standards have always been positioned as luxury goods, which is high.

If your own red wine can be auctioned at Sotheby's International in the future, it will be another honor. And with this auction, it will also drive the sales of those wines made by New World Craft.

"You can think about it, but we'll have to wait until those wines are on the market. We're going to taste it first and see if we can reach the top level. Otherwise, I'll be slapping myself in the face. Liu Yunxuan nodded and said.

Since we choose to sell at Sotheby's in the future, the quality control will be even stricter. My side has always been in the high-end market, which is an opportunity to enter the luxury market. (To be continued......)
