Zhu Yu didn't expect everyone to compete so fiercely for Picasso's painting.

It was really unexpected.

"Sixty-five million!"

"Sixty-eight million!"

"Joe, you've gained enough today, don't rob me anymore - seven million dollars!"

"Thomas, it's not me who robs you, it's you who rob me, okay? I'm selling today, and I'm missing a treasure in my collection – I think this Picasso painting is just right! Seventy-three million! ”

……

The atmosphere of this auction is very relaxed, and when bidding, everyone rarely fights each other, and even if they bid, they are all in a lively atmosphere.

This made Yang Xiong very envious, and he also hoped that when he made a bid, someone would say a few words to him.

But what disappointed him was that he quoted the price, and others outbid him, and he didn't even look at him!

This made him feel humiliated, and he even wanted to get up and leave the place immediately!

How could he have been treated like this at home?

However, years of experience have made him understand that if he wants to integrate into these people, he can only bear it, and then appear in front of them with an extremely dazzling appearance!

Yang Xiong's mental journey Zhu Yu does not know, but what he knows is that since then, his assets will increase a lot!

In less than three minutes, the auction price of Picasso's painting soared to 120 million and is still rising.

But the number of bidders gradually decreased, from eight, to six, to four......

By the time the price soared to 180 million, there were only three people left.

Joe, Jensen, and Yang Xiong.

Zhu Yu was very surprised, the previous lots, the price exceeded 60 million, Yang Xiong would inevitably give up, how could he bid so high at this time?

However, he also has a new understanding of Yang Xiong's financial resources!

When this guy was the chairman, how much money did he roll up!

He naturally didn't know that Yang Xiong's heart was dripping blood at this time!

That's almost half of his entire savings!

If he continues like this, he will really become a poor bastard!

But, for that goal, he's going to fight!

In the end, Picasso's painting was bought by Yang Xiong for $215 million.

Although he paid such a big price, seeing the surprised eyes of those people around him looking at him, Yang Xiong felt that it was worth it!

At this moment, there is a feeling of pride. He glanced at Zhu Yu.

At this time, Yang Xiong realized that Zhu Yu did not take this painting.

He remembered again that he hadn't taken Monet's painting before.

Are you interested, or don't have the money to shoot?

But it doesn't matter, no matter how beautiful the front is, but at this moment, Yang Xiong feels that only he is the real protagonist of this auction!

Yang Xiong's face flushed, accepting Mike's congratulations.

"Okay, then, the people who have already photographed the things will come over and settle the money, and then we will go outside for a cold lunch. I have prepared a lot of food from all over the world here, so you can enjoy it to your heart's content! ”

As soon as he said this, those who took pictures, including Zhu Yu, immediately began to settle the accounts.

Zhu Yu stood up, and the bunny girl standing next to him immediately took out the computer from the cabinet next to the sofa, opened it skillfully, operated the software, and finally stayed at the interface of transferring.

"You can transfer money through this interface, and we will withdraw the commission and put the rest of the money into the account of the person who provided the lot. If there is no person who has photographed the object, you can leave at this time. ”

After Mike finished speaking, these people started to operate.

Zhu Yu moves the fastest, and although the interface is pure English, it is not difficult for him at all.

On the contrary, many of the other people rarely do this kind of thing themselves, so it is a little troublesome.

What surprised Zhu Yu was Yang Xiong.

He was engaged in related majors before, but he looked a little flustered at the moment.

Zhu Yu let go of his hearing, and after listening for a while, he realized that because the amount of money he participated in the auction was too large, he didn't have enough money in one account, and he gathered all the money in the five accounts together, so he had enough money to take pictures of Picasso's famous paintings!

At this time, others have already transferred the money to public accounts, some people leave with their lots, and others watch others operate. They naturally have their own ideas.

Most of these lots were provided by those present. Those people want to be able to see who is working on what they want but don't get it.

For example, famous paintings.

If two famous paintings can appear at the same time, there is a high probability that there will be.

There is more than one shrewd person, and they are all watching the rest of them.

Yang Xiong was a little proud, he finished the account, cherished the packaging box containing the painting "Eye of War" in his hand, and walked in front of Zhu Yu.

Condescending again, he looked down at Zhu Yu and said:

"Xiao Zhu, you have a good harvest today! I'll give you this tiger cannibal. You are a young man, and I, as an elder, always have something to say.

However, no matter how precious this tiger cannibal is, it is also a grade worse than Picasso's famous paintings.

So, today's limelight, I don't mean I accepted it. ”

His tone overflowed with smugness.

Yang Xiong spoke Mandarin, which few people present could understand.

Zhu Yu looked at Yang Xiong, whose face was trembling and spitting and spitting everywhere, looking like an elder teaching a lesson to a junior, sighed, held the wooden box containing the tiger cannibal, and carried the scroll containing the Bada Shanren's "Osprey Water Map", stood up and said to Yang Xiong:

"Mr. Yang, actually, I have been planning to hide this secret from you. It's just that you're too annoying now, so I'll say it......"

Zhu Yu stood up a head taller than Yang Xiong, this sense of oppression made Yang Xiong very uncomfortable, he couldn't help but take a step back, and said calmly:

"What do you want to say? Young people, be humble, learn to respect their elders, and know how to absorb nutrients from their teachings......"

"What I want to say is that I provided the painting you bought."

Yang Xiong wanted to continue to speak, but suddenly heard Zhu Yu say this, he was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief:

"You say—you provided the painting? Am I equivalent to buying your paintings? ”

"yes!" Zhu Yu shrugged his shoulders, "I didn't expect this painting to be worth 200 million at all-in fact, I originally planned to exchange two paintings for this bronze, but I didn't expect——"

He glanced at Yang Xiong deeply:

"Mr. Yang, I didn't expect you to be really rich!"

After speaking, he ignored Yang Xiong, who opened his mouth wide, and walked out slowly with his things.

What a buffet will he is not interested in.

He needs to put this tiger cannibal into the space as soon as possible, so that he can rest assured!

This thing is in his hands, and he has another wish!

Not only Yang Xiong heard Zhu Yu's words, but several people heard Zhu Yu's words, some people were confused, and some people felt that this matter could be operated!

Zhu Yu went out of the yard and asked Cao Dalong to take his things to the car and wait.

He went to say goodbye to Mike, who said with some regret:

"Mr. Zhu Yu, you must have seen that today's auction was a success. Actually, several people have already asked me about you just now, and they hope to have a good exchange with you at the buffet......"

Zhu Yu said with a smile:

"Mr. Mack, you should be able to tell that I'm just a lucky treasure hunter. Compared to the elites of high society, I feel like a person from another world.

I'm not used to it here, and I don't understand many of the rules, so I think it's better to go back, and I'm eager to share the news of that treasure from you to my family......"

"Okay." Mike said with some regret:

"I trust your feelings. You are a free person who does not want to be bound by rules, and you are also a lucky person who can control your own destiny.

Leave a contact information, maybe it won't be long before I have a request for you. ”

Zhu Yu had a good impression of Mike, so he left his contact information happily, and then said goodbye and left.

At the cold lunch, Yang Xiong has returned to normal. After all, after being the head for so many years, the city government still has it.

He comforted himself in his heart, even if the money was in Zhu Yu's hands, but Picasso's painting was in hand, which was equivalent to a stepping stone to high society, and people who wanted to take the initiative to find themselves would soon be there.

His guess was partly correct, and someone did take the initiative to talk at the cold lunch, which made Yang Xiong's hurt heart feel a little comforted.

However, more people inquired about Zhu Yu's situation with Mike and Yang Xiong.

At the end of the auction, Zhu Yu communicated with Yang Xiong in Mandarin, and those who did not understand Chinese thought that Yang Xiong really had a relationship with Zhu Yu.

And those who do, ask Mike.

Like Joe.

"Mike, you should know the origin of this Zhu Yu. Can you tell me his contact information...... I've got something to look for him. ”

"Buying paintings?" Mike asked, holding a glass of wine, with a smirk.

"Well, you guessed it." Joe shrugged helplessly, "I think you can see that, too." Monet's paintings and Picasso's paintings have one thing in common – "

"It's all new." Mike took over his words, "And it's preserved in the same environment, and it hasn't been touched in all these years, which is rare......"

"So, I think this Zhu Yu has found a treasure left by the Wanzi Army somewhere, just like those works of art that were looted during World War II found under the villa of a wealthy man in Germany some time ago!"

Mike nodded, he felt the same way.

"So, I want to buy a painting from him...... Without the bonus of the auction, I think this young Chinese man would be willing to sell my paintings at a relatively reasonable price. ”

"Joe," Mike patted him on the shoulder, "I think if you pay for it, you might as well take out a few of those Chinese artifacts in your collection room and exchange them with him."

I think you should have noticed that this young Chinese man is more interested in Chinese cultural relics. ”

Joe pinched his brows and said with some distress:

"I naturally found out, but you can also see that this young man has a hobby for Chinese cultural relics. For example, he was not interested in the blue and white jar, but he had to take pictures of the bronze. ”

Mike spoke again:

"So, old friend, I'll give you a suggestion, you'd better be honest with him in a deal. Don't play tricks, I think that's what impresses him the most. ”

Joe nodded, agreeing with Mike.

Zhu Yu returned to the villa and asked Cao Dalong to rest by himself, while he went to the study and took out the bronze tiger cannibal and admired it.

A national treasure!

Especially with the inscription - the value is different!

In the next two days, Zhu Yu received calls from Mike and Joe respectively.

Regarding their speculation, Zhu Yu did not admit it, nor did he deny it.

However, Zhu Yu did not refuse when they wanted to buy famous paintings, but only put forward one condition:

"Payment needs to be in soft girl coins, or the same antiques."

In the end, Zhu Yu sold two paintings to Mike and got one billion soft girl coins.

And Qiao exchanged four bronzes for a Van Gogh painting in Zhu Yu's hand.

One of the bronzes is a bronze tripod with sixty-seven inscriptions weighing more than forty kilograms!

This thing made Zhu Yu excited for a while!

Because he found two very familiar oracle bones on the ding: China and China!

As we all know, the earliest bronze ware with the word "China", or rather, the earliest ancient record of the word "China", comes from a bronze vessel named "He Zun".

He Zun is a bronze made by a Western Zhou nobleman named "He" for sacrifices, a national first-class cultural relic, and it is forbidden to go abroad for exhibition, because there are four words "Zhaizi China" on it, which is the earliest record of the appearance of the two words in China.

Now that the inscription of "China" has also appeared on this tripod, how can Zhu Yu not be excited?

If this tripod is the Shang Dynasty......

No, no, no, I can't think about it anymore!

This exchange, both parties are very satisfied!

After Zhu Yu finished changing, he couldn't wait to return to China.

How can you not share such a big thing with your family?

Fortunately, now that the plane has arrived, Zhu Yu plans to leave New York and return to China directly.

After Joanna found out about this, she pestered Zhu Yu for the past few days, and she didn't even go to work.

Zhu Yu also knew that it would take a while to come back, so Zhu Yu could understand Joanna's obsession and was very cooperative.

A few days later, Zhu Yu flew to the airport in New Province on the Gulfstream 800.

And the 747 drove directly to the big island.

Zhu Yu and Cao Dalong returned home together, and at this time, the village was no longer busy.

When Zhu Yu came back, the Zhu family was very happy.

"What do you say? Did you buy a plane? Also going to take us on a tour of the island? ”

Zhu Yu said his thoughts, and the Zhu family was surprised!

Although they knew that Zhu Yu had made money, he was quite big outside.

But what Zhu Yu said now is far beyond their cognition.

That's a bit of an exaggeration, isn't it?

Zhu Shoushan obviously didn't want to go:

"What's there to do on the island? If you have that time, you might as well go to the Forbidden City and see Tiananmen Square! ”

The old man Zhu Shoushan was a cultural person of that era, but he had never been to the capital in his life, and he always wanted to see those historic sites with cultural accumulation.

"Then go and see!"
