Chapter 948: Private Auction (2)

"Not necessarily." Listening to Dean Paul's words, Chen Yi smiled slightly and said, he is not a saint, in other words, even if he is a saint, there will be impulsive moments.

Just like when he was in Fengyang, after knowing that a little clouded leopard would steal it, he wanted to break those poachers into pieces, he would also be impulsive, but he would not let the impulse affect his reason.

Subsequently, Chen Yi introduced He Wenzhi to Dean Paul, and after seeing several paintings painted by He Wenzhi, Dean Paul also knew that this was also a very high-level Chinese painter.

At the same time, he also saw Mia beside He Wenzhi, and immediately asked with some curiosity, after learning about Mia's life experience, he also sympathized with this little girl, after learning that He Wenzhi had adopted Mia, he smiled and nodded, from the little girl's eyes, it can be seen that she is very dependent on He Wenzhi.

The auction was held at seven o'clock in the evening, except that all those who attended the auction had to arrive at the castle at six o'clock, because the owner of the castle would hold a welcome dinner for the auctioneers.

After learning about this, Chen Yi was a little surprised, he really hadn't seen anyone who participated in the auction and took care of the food, he had also participated in the domestic underground auction before, it was more cautious than the other, more cautious than the underground party.

Compared with the domestic underground auctions, this private auction can be said to be very thoughtful, but the nature of the auction they want to participate in is different from the domestic black market auction, according to Dean Paul's introduction, the items to be auctioned in this private auction are obtained from some rich people or families. The channel is above board. There are no problems.

The black market in China is different. Some of the lots were stolen by cheating, and some were stolen from the tomb by tomb robbers, and most of them were not visible.

At five o'clock, Dean Paul and Chen Yi set off in a luxury car to the ancient castle where the famous rich man was located.

Soon, they came to the ancient castle on the outskirts of Rome, which was located on the top of a hill on the outskirts of the city. Here, you can overlook the entire Roman city, the style of the castle is medieval, it looks like a strong artistic atmosphere, just like a dream castle in a fairy tale, very beautiful.

At this time, it seemed that in order to welcome the arrival of these guests, the entire castle was brightly lit, and at the gate, they had undergone a simple inspection. I drove the car directly into the courtyard of the castle.

After stabilizing the car, two servants came to the car. He opened the doors on both sides and waved his hand to ask Chen Yi and Dean Paul to get out of the car.

After the two of them got out of the car, under the guidance of the servant, they came to the gate of the ancient castle, at this moment, there was an old man with gray hair waiting here, and when he saw Chen Yi and Dean Paul, he laughed loudly, "Haha, Paul, long time no see." ”

Dean Paul also smiled, shook hands with the old man cordially, and hugged him, and then, the old man looked at Chen Yi and said with a smile: "If I guess correctly, this is the famous Mr. Chen Yi."

"Mr. Luchino, you are so polite, I am only a little famous compared to you and Dean Paul." Chen Yi said with a smile, from Dean Paul's introduction, he knew how rich this Luchino was, and these properties were not broken out by the family, but completely by his own efforts, so he still had to maintain the most basic respect for this old man.

Lu Chino laughed out loud and stretched out his hand towards Chen Yi, "Haha, sure enough, as Dean Paul said, Mr. Chen is very modest, but I didn't know that Mr. Chen would also come to Italy, if you know, I will ask you to help bring a piece of firewood kiln porcelain, this kind of porcelain is very popular." ”

"Mr. Lu Chino, then you might as well go to Huaxia, in addition to being able to buy firewood kiln porcelain, you can also see the process of firing firewood kiln porcelain, and you can also see the splendid culture of China." Chen Yi smiled and couldn't help but invite Lu Chino to Huaxia.

"Mr. Chen is right, I will definitely go to Huaxia if I have the opportunity, please go inside to rest for a while and visit my ancient castle." Hearing Chen Yi's words, Lu Chino smiled and nodded.

Led by the servants, they went to the first floor of this castle, where there was a living room full of aristocratic atmosphere, and a library with an oak floor, filled with all kinds of books, was like a small library.

In addition, there is a flower greenhouse, which is full of flowers and plants, which looks extremely beautiful, and at the same time, there is the most important art exhibition gallery of the entire castle, in this corridor, there are all kinds of precious works of art, both Western and Chinese, and some paintings by famous painters, which are placed in the corridor.

Looking at these rich and precious works of art, Chen Yi sighed, this Lukino is really not ordinary rich, and just being rich, it is impossible to collect so many precious works of art.

For these artworks, he didn't have the slightest politeness, and directly used the identification technique and the aura absorption technique to absorb the aura inside.

After the appraisal was completed, Chen Yi roughly estimated that the total value of the artworks in the exhibition gallery alone could exceed 5 billion yuan.

Later, Chen Yi appraised the entire castle, and the results made him amazed, in the basement of the castle, there was also a collection room, and the items in it were more precious than this corridor.

The identification of the castle gave Chen Yi a deeper understanding of Luchino, a famous Italian tycoon.

After a while, the servant received a summons from Luchino, and led Chen Yi and Dean Paul to the large dining room on the first floor, which was very luxuriously decorated, with crystal lamps, various murals, and tables, chairs and benches made of precious wood.

There are five tables in this large dining room, which can accommodate twenty-five people together, and that's exactly how many guests Luchino invited.

When Chen Yi and Dean Paul came to the restaurant, they already saw that the table was full of people, the youngest of whom were almost fifty or sixty years old, and Chen Yi could be said to be the youngest among them.

After seeing Dean Paul, many people greeted the vice president of the Florentine Academy of Fine Arts with a smile, but when they looked at Chen Yi, they showed some doubts on their faces.

"Haha, let me introduce to you, this is the famous Chinese Mr. Chen Yi, he made the famous Chinese porcelain firewood kiln reappear in the world, he is the president of the beef giant Zhang Yide Beef Company, he is the director of the Chinese Museum, his achievements are countless, each one is very amazing, and, a few days ago, he also found Piero Manzoni's colorless oil painting in the Florentine antique market, worth nearly 20 million dollars."

"At the same time, he is also a great artist, creating many popular calligraphy paintings, and we should applaud Mr. Chen."

At this time, Lu Chino walked over slowly, pointed to Chen Yi and introduced it to everyone, and told Chen Yi about the achievements created by Chen Yi one by one.

Hearing Lu Chino's introduction, everyone looked at Chen Yi with a look of surprise, and applauded warmly, Chen Yi's achievements in China, they also know it clearly in Italy, just like Lu Chino said, every achievement is very amazing, firewood kiln porcelain company, Zhang Yide beef company, each is extremely profitable, especially firewood kiln, each piece is worth tens of millions of yuan, this kind of money-making speed, even surpassing most of them.

In addition to being a famous entrepreneur, Chen Yi is also an artist, which is incomparable to them, and the calligraphy paintings he created have achieved excellent results in several auctions, and the party is such a young person, it is conceivable that his future must be limitless, and everyone has not hesitated to give Chen Yi their applause.

Such a young man deserves their applause and welcome, and making friends with him is only good, not harmful, which is also one of the purposes of the auction, which is to meet more people and make the relationship between each other stronger.

"Alright, let's dine first, there will be time for you to get to know each other in a moment, Mr. Chen, please sit between me and Dean Paul." Lukino said with a smile on his face, pointing to a seat next to him, and next to this seat sat Dean Paul.

Chen Yi nodded and smiled, sat down gently, without any restraint, he had even seen the general secretary, this kind of scene was really nothing, he looked at everyone with interest, and then used an appraisal technique, and found that each of them had skills related to business, especially Lu Chino's body, except for some intermediate skills, the others were question marks.

This is due to the fact that his appraisal skill level is not enough, but with guessing, he can also know that Lu Chino must have advanced skills, which cannot be identified by his advanced appraisal technique, and can only be identified when his appraisal technique is promoted to the top level.

Soon after he sat down, one after another Italian food was served by the servants, and there were also a few Chinese dishes, which surprised Chen Yi, and Lu Chino explained with a smile: "Mr. Chen, after Dean Paul said that you would come, I was worried that these Italian dishes would not suit your appetite, so I asked the kitchen to prepare some Chinese food, now try the skills of these chefs." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Luchino, for your hospitality." Chen Yi said to Lu Chino with gratitude on his face, just by this thoughtful hospitality, he knew that this person was able to achieve today's achievements, and it was not groundless. (To be continued......)
