Chapter 239
Early the next morning, Lin Xiao came to the hotel where Chengchang International held the auction.
There are two auctions today, one Chengchang International Auction in the morning and one Times International Auction in the afternoon.
Under normal circumstances, auction houses will deliberately separate the dates from other auction houses when holding auctions.
Like this, it is ~ relatively rare to hold an auction on the same day in a city.
Although the morning and afternoon are separated, holding an auction at night is always a loss.
Fortunately, these two auction-sales will not be far away.
Lin Xiao’s goal today is to buy one or two, these two auctions are mainly porcelain, Chengchang International has 13 national treasure-level cultural relics, Times International has about 15.
In this case, either you have enough money to buy it all.
Either identify a few of them and take the money to smash one or two.
Tomorrow there will also be an auction held by the royal and aristocratic auction house.
Three days, four sessions.
The most good things are yesterday’s Bonhams and tomorrow’s auction.
Yesterday, the cultural relics he bought were worth about 2 billion.
It’s an auction.
If it is a normal auction, there are few in a year that can reach this kind of turnover in a single auction.
And tomorrow’s one, really speaking, is even more terrifying.
Not surprisingly, tomorrow’s auction will probably become the largest auction in recent years.
The last auction at Christie’s in London was not counted, and if it was, the London one was the one with the largest turnover.
Lin Xiao arrived at the auction venue at ten o’clock, and people entered one after another.
At about ten twenty o’clock, a man sat next to Lin Xiao.
As soon as the person sat down, his voice sounded: “Mr. Lin, what a coincidence, you are also there?” ”
Lin Xiao tilted his head and looked, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes, and after a little recognition, the doubt gradually disappeared and was suddenly replaced.
The change in his eyes was seen by the man.
The corners of the man’s mouth twitched slightly, why didn’t you recognize me?
“Xu Jianmin?” Lin Xiao asked inquiringly, not particularly sure.
Xu Jianmin was silent for a few seconds, did he really not recognize me?
Obviously they ate together the day before yesterday …
He felt offended.
“It’s me.” Xu Jianmin’s face was not good-looking, he was silent for a while, and said, “Is Mr. Lin interested in anything today?” ”
“Quite a lot.”
“Oh, huh.”
Quite a lot…
That’s right.
Xu Jianmin came here specially today.
Yesterday’s auction made him sure that Lin Xiao was the one who laundered the money.
Not surprisingly, today’s one, he will definitely buy in large quantities.
Xu Jianmin came over, there was nothing special to mean.
I just want to knock and knock him and let him know that everything about you has already been seen through by me.
However, there is no hurry yet.
As for those things, he won’t mix them either.
A bunch of fakes, who is particularly interested?
At half past ten, the auction began.
The host takes the stage, begins the introduction, and begins the auction.
Around eleven o’clock, it was finally the turn of these porcelains to play.
Xu Jianmin had been silently observing, and he found that when these things appeared, Lin Xiao was sitting slightly straight.
“This Qianlong Doucai Eight Auspicious Pattern Plate, the starting price is 3 million.”
Lin Xiao waited silently, this piece of porcelain is not very precious, and the system valuation is 17 million.
For him, it’s dispensable.
The real focus is on the latter pieces.
However, he gradually discovered a somewhat strange situation.
On the spot, no one asked for a price.
He wondered in his heart, feeling a little familiar.
How similar this scene is to yesterday’s auction at Bonhams!
Lin Xiao didn’t have time to think about it, so he raised his cards first.
“Number 18!”
The host was ready to shoot and saw someone holding up a sign and shouted quickly.
After another while, under Lin Xiao’s uncertain waiting, the host determined the price three times in a row, and finally dropped the hammer with a “click”.
In Lin Xiao’s slightly confused mood, this piece of porcelain was won by him at a starting price of 3 million.
Lin Xiao was calm on the surface, and his heart was crazy to hold the grass.
What the heck?
Streaming again?
Why do I say again?
This familiar feeling made his heartbeat accelerate unconsciously.
His mind couldn’t help but think about what happened at yesterday’s auction.
It’s so similar, it’s really too special!
So much so that the corners of his mouth were a little uncontrollable, slightly raised, revealing a smile arc.
This smile was captured by Xu Jianmin, and he smiled secretly, as I expected.
Laugh, laugh wildly, laugh arrogantly, laugh to your heart’s content!
When I tell the truth later, I hope you can still keep that smile on your face.
He seemed to have seen how panicked Lin Xiao would be when he said Lin Xiao’s money laundering to his face.
This experience of being discovered and ruthlessly exposed, just thinking about it, makes Xu Jianmin happy.
He was unhappy when he thought of the disdain that Lin Xiao showed towards him the day before yesterday.
Although he couldn’t do anything, it was still very pleasant for him to have Lin Xiao’s secret.
Of course, he is not stupid, he does not dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing.
To say it is to completely offend people to death.
It’s not a deep hatred, he wouldn’t do such a thing.
He just wanted to play with Lin Xiao.
Then, the porcelain in the back also came up one after another.
Lin Xiao was sure of one thing, these porcelains, no one seemed to recognize.
Pieces of porcelain, worth tens of millions, appeared at auction at a very low starting price, but he was the only one holding the plaque.
When the last piece of porcelain was taken by him, he was satisfied.
The quality of this auction is not as good as yesterday’s Bonhams, but the porcelain worth more than 30 million is also more than ten.
Total price, more than 500 million!
What makes Lin Xiao most happy is that he can take out these porcelains and sell them and cash them directly.
These are not unique, and many museums have similar porcelain.
His private museum, there is no shortage either.
Even if it is missing, it will be enough to buy it later.
This kind of cultural relics that do not have uniqueness is the best choice for monetization.
After he goes back, he plans to directly collect all the porcelain from this auction to the system.
It’s hard to come across this kind of antique, not to sell it now, but when?
It will not be given to Wei Cheng, and a part has already been given to him before.
Moreover, he held an auction there, and he had to find someone to identify something in the early stage, which was too troublesome.
Even if there is no shortage of money, but now he is very short of money.
Moreover, there is another auction in the afternoon and another tomorrow.
This money can give him more choices.
Lin Xiao’s mood is very beautiful.
At half past eleven, the auction ended, and Lin Xiao followed the staff to pay.
There were 19 cases in total, less than 50 million.
The quantity is one more than yesterday, but the value of both the individual piece and the overall value is far worse than yesterday.
Bitcoin payment, Lin Xiao provided the address, is out.
He and the staff agreed to wait at the door and go straight back to the hotel in a moment.
Lin Xiao came out of the elevator and came to the door of the hotel to wait.
At this time, Xu Jianmin came over.
Lin Xiao glanced at him and didn’t care.
But looking at it, I found that this guy seemed to be coming for himself.
“Mr. Lin bought a lot of things.”
“Hmm.”
To be honest, when Xu Jianmin sat beside him, Lin Xiao was originally a little worried.
The other person knows himself and knows how good his vision is.
If he attracts the attention of the other party because he buys it himself, and robs him with himself, he really can’t get these things today.
Fortunately, this guy didn’t make a move.
Xu Jianmin took out a cigarette, lit one, spit out a puff of smoke, and said: “Mr. Lin’s method of laundering money is a bit blunt. ”
Lin Xiao: ???
Xu Jianmin looked at the doubt on his face and said with a smile: “Mr. Lin thinks I didn’t see it?” Or do you think this thing is done very hidden? Hehe, in fact, there are quite a few people who can see it. ”
He lit a little cigarette ash and looked at Lin Xiao with a condescending look, and the sense of superiority in his tone was almost overflowing: “You are a foreigner, playing this game on Hong Kong Island, the risk is still very great.” ”
He patted Lin Xiao’s shoulder and said, “Young man, there are some things to learn more. ”
With that, he turned away, leaving behind a back that he thought was very dashing and mysterious.
Xu Jianmin, who had his back to Lin Xiao, had an irrepressible smile on the corner of his mouth at this moment.
He didn’t need to look back to know that Lin Xiao at this moment must be panicked in his heart.
He must be struggling with whether to come up and talk to himself and invite himself to a meal.
Or, share a little benefit for yourself as a hush money for yourself. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
He thought about it a lot, but none of it mattered.
He doesn’t care what hush money is, he likes the feeling.
After revealing the secret that Lin Xiao thought no one knew, imagining his panicked reaction, and the fear that was beating wildly in his heart, Xu Jianmin was almost on the verge of intracranial high dynasty.
“Phew!”
He took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and his body unconsciously snorted.
“Cool!”
……
Lin Xiao looked at Xu Jianmin who was far away, looked at his body trembling when he spit out cigarettes, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
What is wrong with this man’s brain?
“Money laundering…”
He gradually reacted, this guy, did he think of his behavior just now as money laundering?
Combined with some of Xu Jianmin’s guesses at the front desk dinner, he could easily guess the guess in Xu Jianmin’s heart.
No wonder he didn’t fight with himself just now, and his feelings were taken as money laundering.
This Nima…
He was speechless and didn’t know what to say.
Guess as you like, it has nothing to do with Lin Xiao anyway.
After a while, the staff of the auction house pushed a few carts over.
Loading the things into the car, Lin Xiao returned to the hotel with them.
At half past twelve, everything had been delivered to the hotel.
Lin Xiao glanced at the time and ordered a meal first.
Next, recycling begins.
“The recycling price is 18 million, is it recycling?”
“Recycle.”
“Recycled, please pay attention to the host.”
Antiques are constantly being recycled, and the balance in Lin Xiao’s bank card is also growing rapidly.
The money recovered by the system has a clear source and can withstand scrutiny.
Therefore, Lin Xiao did not have the slightest scruples.
The last antique was recycled, Lin Xiao opened the bank APP to check the balance, 650 million.
This includes the rent he sold some time ago and the Jinling Museum.
0 ask for flowers
This money is enough to repay the loan.
However, he doesn’t plan to pay it back now.
His loan term is one year, what to do so early, he keeps the money useful.
The afternoon auction, tomorrow’s auction, he has a lot of things he wants to buy.
Ten minutes later, the meal arrived.
After lunch, Lin Xiao took a break and immediately went straight to the auction venue held by Times International.
The auction began at two o’clock in the afternoon, and he arrived half an hour away.
When it was almost two o’clock, Lin Xiao sat down, and then he saw Xu Jianmin again.
This guy sat next to Lin Xiao, smiled slightly, cocked Erlang’s legs, and said in a caring tone of the elders to the elders: “Xiao Lin, here again?” ”
It was as if he had seen through everything about Lin Xiao.
Xiao Lin’s title made Lin Xiao want to complain very much, but after thinking about it, he ignored him.
He couldn’t help but think of the auction that was about to start in a while, and he was suddenly stunned.
This auction… Wouldn’t it be the same as the previous two?
From the beginning of life, this thought could not be contained.
Xu Jianmin said, “Xiao Lin, you, you are still inexperienced. What about money laundering, it is better to be spaced, like you, three auctions in two days, too dense. And the amount is also too large. ”
As soon as these words came out, it further confirmed Lin Xiao’s guess.
Vozh, this auction, why do I have to pick up the leaks again?
He still didn’t have time to think about what the auction was like in the past two days.
First, there is no time to think about it, and secondly, even if you think about it, it seems useless.
The devil knows what’s going on here?
Xu Jianmin was still talking: “I’ll teach you a good way, next time, you can entrust two or three things, and the price of each thing will be higher.” It is best to find a few friends to raise the sign and raise the price. You see you now, dozens of things add up to tens of millions. But as long as the price is raised, the price of two or three pieces can be directly pushed to 780 million, isn’t it more convenient? ”
“You’re still too young and inexperienced.”
“Ah, yes, yes, you’re right.”
Lin Xiao nodded in agreement.
Xu Jianmin smiled and said, “It’s not bad, you can at least listen to it, and the children can be taught.” ”
“…”gave you face.
Lin Xiao was too lazy to deal with him, allowing Xu Jianmin to immerse himself in his fantasy and not break it.
Just don’t bother yourself picking up leaks.
Soon, the auction began under Lin Xiao’s expectation.
One by one, the lots appeared, and after waiting for half an hour, they finally waited for something that Lin Xiao was interested in.
A total of 14, with a total market price of 440 million, was won by Lin Xiao with a very low starting price.
Xu Jianmin did not speak the whole time, watching what happened with a “I have already seen through everything” look.
Lin Xiao had paid the money, and while waiting downstairs in the hotel, Xu Jianmin came over again, smoked a cigarette, and said, “I heard that you are from Jinling?” ”
“Hmm.”
“I plan to open a branch in Jinling, wait for me to come over, find you out to talk, and accompany me to pick a suitable façade.”
This almost commanding tone came from Xu Jianmin’s belief that he had mastered Lin Xiao’s secret.
Lin Xiao didn’t speak, quietly watching him perform.
After not seeing Lin Xiao speak for a while, Xu Jianmin frowned slightly: “I spoke, didn’t you hear?” ”
Lin Xiao plucked his ears: “What did you say?” ”
Xu Jianmin was dissatisfied, stared at Lin Xiao for a long time, and suddenly smiled: “Okay, it’s a little interesting, the money has arrived, right?” Oh, okay, very good. ”
He stopped talking, turned and left.
In fact, he has always had the idea of going inland to open an antique store, but opening a store requires costs, and this kind of store needs to be introduced by people in the circle.
So he never thought about it.
Now, he suddenly had this idea.
What to say let Lin Xiao accompany to see the store, in fact, what I want is to be optimistic about the store and directly let Lin Xiao pay the rent.
Even, let Lin Xiao help him open the antique shop, all he needs to do is lie down and make money.
As a result, this kid is not on the road.
But there was really nothing he could do, he thought that Lin Xiao would be afraid that he knew his secret, so he chose to compromise.
After all, his requirements are not excessive, an antique store, before and after the investment is only a few millions.
What is this money to Lin Xiao?
He also wanted a small benefit, and he felt that Lin Xiao would not refuse.
As a result, he refused.
This made Xu Jianmin very unhappy.
But apart from being upset, he couldn’t do anything.
Unless he wanted to completely offend Lin Xiao, it would be impossible for him to expose this matter directly.
However, spread on a small scale, it is not a big problem.
It’s like chatting with friends over tea, dinner, and casual conversation.
He decided that he wanted to let the people in his circle know about it.
As for what will turn out in the end, whether it will attract the attention of the tax department, it has nothing to do with yourself.
Refuse me, don’t give you some color to see, I really don’t know my Xu Jianmin’s ability!
Looking at Xu Jianmin’s back, Lin Xiao did not hold back, and burst into a foul sentence: “Brush up…”
What a strange thing about this Nima.
He shook his head, too lazy to care.
Anyway, everything that should be in hand has arrived, as for money laundering … This is Xu Jianmin’s imagination.
Neuropathy the same.
After waiting at the door for about ten minutes, the staff came, and Lin Xiao followed them back to the hotel.
