Li Yibai said, "Thank you for your trust." My name is Li Yibai. What's your name, and why do you faint from hunger? ’

The woman in red said, 'My name is Nian Tong. is an international student. I relied on my aunt's connections to get my visa before. But unfortunately, my aunt died in a car accident suddenly, disrupting the normal order of life. My life began to be uncertain, and I didn't dare to tell my family for fear of adding a burden to my family. My family has done everything they can for me to study in the United States. My aunt's will was also not made. I don't get a penny for my identity. My cousins have long been displeased with me and want to drive me away. Now that my aunt has died, they kicked me out.

I wanted to earn money from my part-time job to support myself. But her best friend Xiaowei said that as long as she finds a rich boyfriend, everything can be solved. And when you work in the dark, you will be by the boss. Disturb. Disturb. I listened to Xiaowei's words. What's more, Xiaowei proved it with her actions, she found a rich boyfriend, and then went to New York to play.

So I used all my savings to buy designer clothes and started waiting for men at art galleries. ’

Li Yibai remembered something. 'The first time you fell on me, it was for'

Nian Tong said shyly, "The first time I fell was on purpose. When I see such a person, I think you are the most reliable, your face is not ostentatious and high-spirited, some are really concentrating on appreciating famous paintings, not vassal elegance. ’

Li Yibai smiled, "You can see this." You're pretty good. ’

Nian Tong said, "It's a pity that my savings were all over later." I'm not a U.S. citizen, so I can't get a benefit. And the church aid point, I don't want to go either, I can't let go of my face. So I starved, and finally I waited for you today, a moment before I fainted from hunger. ’

Li Yibai is deeply aware of the difficulties of a weak woman in a foreign land, he also came to the United States alone, went to work in the gap time between studying abroad, and finally finished college. In fact, the United States is different from China, where Chinese society mostly uses blood ties to operate in mutual aid, while in the United States, everyone demands a high degree of independence, and life is very difficult without social welfare benefits.

And Li Yibai didn't realize that this woman was lazy and lazy, and she loved vanity. She listened to her best friend's nonsense, which just shows that she is honest, not to mention such a person who believes in herself, and is willing to gamble everything on someone who believes in herself. This is very rare. First of all, this kind of belief is very rare.

Li Yibai said, 'Nian Tong. I'll help you. Don't stay in the hospital. I have a villa in the Bay Area, it's always empty, you go and live there. ’

As he spoke, he took Nian Tong to the villa in the Bay Area.

Nian Tong opened the floor-to-ceiling curtains of the villa, in front of him was the blue sea, the seagulls were flying, the sun was flickering and swaying on the sea, this empty sea, which made people feel good.

'Ahh That's great. This house, facing the sea, is in full bloom in spring. ’

Nian Tong jumped up and shouted a few more times. 'Ahh ’

Li Yibai took out some milk and cake from the refrigerator and handed them to her.

As she ate, she said, 'Do you remember how many steps I took from home to the San Francisco Art Museum?' ’

'2009 steps. 'Li Yibai is such a smart person, can he have a poor memory?

'Great. You can still remember. Right. It was 2009 steps. I kept counting the numbers. 'Nian Tong said. That's right. You live in such a big house, and you still drive such a nice car. What do you do? ’

Li Yibai paused and said, "I'm a magician and a collector. ’

'Great. Magicians can do wonders. It's exciting. The collector is tasteful and also good. Perfect. Nian Tong said excitedly.

'Stay here first.' It's time to show me my home. Eat and drink as you like, Mandy and Peter do whatever they want, anyway, they have been paid, so they don't have to use it in vain. You are my friend, the master of this place. ’

'Yes. I'm on vacation right now. Next year, I will graduate from college after another year. When I find a job, I'll pay you back my living expenses. ’

Li Yibai smiled, he didn't object, he knew that this would hit Niantong's self-esteem. I'll go out first and come back later. ’

Li Yibai drove to Charlie's law firm.

'Mr. Charlie, I would like to ask, if I can get my hands on a large collection and auction off a lot of money, is it possible for the federal government to freeze my money on trumped-up charges?'

Charlie said, 'Mr. Lee. The federal government's latest anti-terrorism bill and anti-triad bill have the power to freeze black income and assets that support terrorism. I don't know where Mr. Li's collection came about. The source is unknown. ’

Li Yibai smiled and said, "Let's tell you this." I have a collection that you could think of as being brought to me by aliens in a spaceship. Free feed from aliens. I sold these, what's the problem. ’

Charlie said, 'That's it. If the federal government can't find out that your collection is ill-gotten, then they can't freeze your property. As long as you don't use the money to support terrorism. ’

Li Yibai is much more relieved. My idle eggs hurt to support terrorism. 'Okay. I understand. Thank you Mr. Charlie. ’

Charlie said, 'You're welcome. I'm your lawyer. This is what I should do. ’

Li Yibai went out and said in his heart, it seems that I don't need that Yu Hao to help me wash it. Money. However, in order not to let others find out that I have a space-time teleportation system, in order to be able to explain why I was able to get so many collections. I'm still going to buy Zhong Song's antique shop and Allen's auction house. In this way, I have a business system so that no one can doubt me.

Li Yibai made an appointment with Zhong Song and proposed to buy the antique store. Zhong Song agreed in one bite. He also said, 'Without your help, Mr. Li, I would be there today, and I would not hesitate to let me go to the soup in the future.' ’

After acquiring Zhong Song's antique store, Li Yibai invested another 2 million US dollars to let Zhong Song open two more branches and make the scale larger.

Two more days passed, and Allen's auction ended. In total, it sold for more than $50 million. The story also made headlines in the collection magazine "Treasures". Allen's auction house was in the limelight for a while. It is rumored that Ichiro Sato of Poly is going to buy Allen's auction house.

Allen took a check for $50 million and came to the Bay Area villa overjoyed.

Li Yibai sat on the sofa and drank red wine boringly. Nian Tong practiced golf in the yard. Alan put the check on the table and said,

'Mr. Li, this time is really a sensation in the collecting world, and now I can't hide your identity, and I took out 9 famous paintings of the Northern Song Dynasty at once, and countless buyers and reporters have to inquire about your identity. They're probably going to have to look into it secretly.

It took me several times to get to you. ’

Li Yibai said, "Alan, you did a good job. I also had a pleasure working with you. But today I want to talk to you about something important. ’

Alan said, 'What's the matter, Mr. Li said.' ’

Li Yibai said, "I want to buy your company." I have 90% of the shares and you have 10% of the shares. ’

Alan grimaced, 'This. Mr. Li, I'm afraid I can't say yes. Right now, my company is on the rise, and I'm about to grow into a big company. ’

Li Yibai said lightly, "I know what you think. But have you thought about it, it's not because of me that you've been growing so fast lately. Can you grow so fast without me? Without me, you're still a small auction house that no one cares about, no matter how capable you are. ’

Allen knew that what Li Yibai said was right, but recently Ichiro Sato also approached him to negotiate and wanted to buy his company, and he felt that his company was very popular and could not be bought by others so easily.

'But'

'I know what you're trying to say, Alan. You want to say that Ichiro Sato also wanted to buy your company recently, so you feel that your company is valuable and cannot be sold easily. Alan, you are a smart person, you should know the purpose of Ichiro Sato's acquisition of your company. His purpose is nothing more than for me, a mysterious seller. That's why he gives you such a high price. Li Yibai said first.

Li Yibai said again, "With my strength, it is not a problem to open an auction house by myself." It's just that I value your talent, and I don't want to lose a talent like you. I know you have a dream to become the Sotheby's in the world of collecting. I invest in your company to achieve your dreams. In the future, I will supply you, and you are still afraid that you will not be able to compete with your opponents. ’

Li Yibai's words came to Allen's heart, such good conditions, and being able to realize his dream, Allen nodded excitedly and agreed.

Mr. Li poured $10 million into Mr. Allen's auction house to expand Mr. Allen, bring in more staff and spend more money on publicity and marketing.

Li Yibai now has $40 million. He sent Allen to the airline, bought one of the best helicopters for $10 million, and hired a pilot.

Li Yibai took Allen on a helicopter and flew around the Bay Area, looking for a suitable site for building a U.S. base.

The helicopter flew to Marin County, near the Bay Area, which is sparsely populated, has fertile soil, and is full of farms. In order to protect the ecology, there is no train here, but there is a car. It may seem like a remote place, but it's actually the place with the highest per capita income in the United States.

Li Yibai looked at this large area of flat green space, like a green carpet. It's really refreshing. This kind of place is just right for me to use as a base.

It is not far from the villas in the Bay Area, and it is sparsely populated, with green trees, flat terrain and convenient transportation.
