Chapter 10: I Can Communicate with the Gods
"Brother, I'm at home, I've got some good things, I'll definitely surprise you, bring our appraiser here, by the way, bring the security team with you." Guo Yu called Zhang Chong.
"Just waiting for your words, I'm looking forward to it, waiting for me to bring someone over immediately." Zhang Chong only replied with one sentence and hung up the phone.
More than an hour later, Zhang Chong led people to Guo Yu's house. The security team was on standby downstairs, and Guo Yu, Zhang Chong, and appraiser Zhang Quanbao were appraising antiques in the house.
After seeing these works, Zhang Chong and the appraiser Lao Zhang were a little dumbfounded, these paintings are too loud, all of them are national treasure-level paintings, and they definitely belong to the category of heavy treasures in provincial museums.
If you take out these few things, it will definitely cause a sensation, and it is enough to gather a few second-class paintings and open an exhibition.
"Brother, I'm convinced, your pen is too big, I've been working in the auction house for so many years, and I've never seen anyone take out so many national treasure-level antiques at one time, and sometimes there are not a few pieces of this level that are sent to auction in a year, and they are all hidden at home." Zhang Chong was a little excited when he spoke.
"Daewoo, don't worry, put these few things in my hands, I will definitely make our reputation of "Huafu" an instant hit, you just look at it. Zhang Chong said
"Of course I believe you, I still have an idea, whether to set up our headquarters in Hong Kong, and the free port is more convenient for us to act." Guo Yu said.
"It's going to cost a lot more in Hong Kong, we're just getting started, right?" Zhang Chong asked.
"It is possible that I plan to immigrate to Hong Kong in the next step, which can be regarded as a front stand for myself, by the way, I have a relationship with Christie's auction house or Standard Chartered Bank, and I have just run the matter of immigrating to Hong Kong, and the money from my auction can be deposited with them first." Guo Yudao.
"Okay, this time I sent things to 'Christie's' to run the big autumn auction, and then I ran the Hong Kong business, the big autumn auction is still more than two months, and the time is completely in time." Zhang Chong thought that it would be more beneficial in Hong Kong, so he agreed, after all, there are still many restrictions on the sale of national treasure-level antiques in China, and he always wants to receive them from the state, but the money is not much.
"This matter is up to you, and I don't care." Guo Yu patted Zhang Chong's shoulder and said.
"You're a shopkeeper again, you're too relieved, you don't want to go to our company to see, you're the chairman." Zhang Chong rolled his eyes at Guo Yu.
"Well, wait a few days, remember to make my office beautiful, the most important thing is to make it soundproof, you know." Guo Yu said lustfully.
"Why is it good to be soundproofed?" Zhang Chong was puzzled.
"Because I'm going to recruit a beautiful female secretary, hahahaha..." Guo Yu couldn't help but laugh after speaking.
Zhang Chong took out the contract and signed it with Guo Yu, and then returned to the capital with the antique calligraphy and paintings. Although it is my own company, the necessary procedures still have to be taken, and everyone does not want to go on a business trip.
Guo Yu bought a few sets of cosmetics and perfumes in modern times, and returned to the hotel in the United States in 1914, and gave cosmetics and perfumes to Hu Yunyuan, Xiao Ni and Lisa, and the three thanked Guo Yu again and again, and Lisa also gave Guo Yu a wet kiss in front of everyone, causing Xiao Ni to run away with a red face.
At the appointed time, the mechanic of Mobil arrived, in the hotel, the technical appraisal and evaluation of Guo Yu's drawings, the mechanic Melson praised Guo Yu's design again and again, saying that this is the most perfect design he has ever seen of drilling equipment, Guo Yu's words are not exaggerated, can definitely reach the theoretical number of the design, and in the future according to this idea of improvement, there is still room for improvement.
The results were so complete that a vice president of Mobil received Guo Yu and his party at the Mobil New York branch building, and the two sides began to negotiate the final price for the design.
Guo Yu had no intention of taking it, and the other party did not deliberately step on the price, 800,000 US dollars, not too much and not too little, the two sides reached an agreement to completely purchase the design patent in Guo Yu's hand about this set of drilling.
For Guo Yu, this set of design patents is just to get close to Mobil and catch the Rockefeller line, and now it has perfectly fulfilled its mission. After the handover was completed, Mr. Vice President told Mr. Guo Yu, John Jr. Mr. Rockefeller will welcome Guo Yu at Rockefeller Manor.
Headquartered in Westchester County, New York, on the upper Hudson River, two hours from Manhattan Island, the Rockefeller family's 3,400-acre luxury home was built by the family's founder, John D. Rockefeller, at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The main residence is surrounded by gardens, fountains, a racetrack, and works of art and sculpture.
Walking into this manor that is about the size of a small town, Guo Yu was very shocked in his heart, he looked at the scenery in the manor, it was picturesque, giving people a feeling of exquisite perfection to the extreme, and some ideas were faintly born in his heart.
John D. Rockefeller Jr. is forty years old this year, and when he is in the prime of life, he has completely taken over the family business, and John Sr. can be considered to be able to live a peaceful old age, and Guo Yu met the head of this huge family in the living room.
"Thank you, Mr. Rockefeller, for the invitation, your family estate is the most beautiful I have ever seen." Guo Yu greeted.
"Thank you for the compliment, and welcome to you, I learned a little bit about you, and there are some things that have piqued my interest, so I invited you to come because I wanted to talk to you, we may have a topic of mutual interest. Also, you can call me John. ”
"Mr. John, are you interested in my business, is it a technical design patent?" Guo Yu asked suspiciously.
"No, it's charity, my father, John Sr., after he retired, put all his energy into philanthropy, and I inherited philanthropy at the same time that I inherited the oil company, but
It was very difficult to find a psychological balance between the oil business and philanthropy, so I was constantly tormented by nervous disorders. ”
"When I'm in business, I feel like I'm in a race against my conscience. Sometimes, I can't help but wonder if my father's religious education made me wonder if what I was doing in business was right. ”
"I understand that you are in your home country and are also starting charity, and no one is doing better than you now, but you are also working hard to earn money and give nearly half of your income to charity, I don't know how you found this sense of balance in your heart." Mr. Little John looked at Guo Yu, his eyes full of inquiry.
Guo Yu thought to himself, when he chose Mobil, or the Rockefeller family, he knew that the Rockefeller family would always spare no effort to do charity, and they would be the largest charitable family in the world in the future, but will I tell you my own secret, I will tell you and me to do charity more than business, of course not.
The Rockefeller family is a devout Christian family, and they may believe in the existence of God, Guo Yu instantly devised a set of rhetoric in his heart, flickering the divine power with full firepower.
"Mr. John, do you believe in the existence of God?" Guo Yu asked.
"Of course, I believe in Jesus Christ."
"Can you feel the presence of Jesus Christ?" Guo Yu said.
"What do you mean, Guo, can you feel the existence of Christ, in your heart?" Little John replied with some confusion.
"No, you know that there are many gods in China, just like you have Jesus Christ, you have God, Our Lady, and angels, and when I am doing charity, I can communicate with God in my heart, and the gods will give me the strength to better care for the people of the world and relieve them from suffering." After Guo Yu finished speaking, he saw Little John's eyes wide, his mouth slightly open, and he looked incredulous.
"Guo, I hope you're not joking." Little John was not convinced by such a sentence.
"I know that old Mr. John has asthma, you should know that there is no way to completely treat this disease, I can try it, and you will believe it when the time comes." After hearing this, Little John's expression became solemn.
"Guo, although my father's illness is difficult to heal, and I will be extra careful every winter, I don't want him to be treated by a witch doctor." Little John stared at Guo Yu sternly and said.
"Give me your hand, and you will feel the gift of God, not the witch doctor you call Huaguo." Guo Yu took Little John's hand and used merit points to help Little John clear his body's fatigue and some other hidden diseases.
Slowly, Little John's mouth opened, he wanted to scream but didn't dare to scream, for fear of disturbing Guo Yu, only a few minutes passed, Guo Yu let go of Little John's hand, and at this time Little John had not yet woken up from the shock.
