Chapter 0389 private auction
In the afternoon, Li Rui returned to Green Field Culture and processed some documents.
When he saw He Caocao, Li Rui asked her how she was sleeping.
He Caocao's face was red and his answers were in a mess.
Li Rui didn't care about it. When he was thinking about how to arrange the weekend night, Ma Wenxuan called.
Sister Xuan, is there a letter from Mr. Ma? Li Rui asked.
Ma Wenxuan said: Do you have time tonight?
Yes. Li Ruidao.
Ma Wenxuan said: My dad is going to attend an auction tonight. Come here too and take the time to talk about art stocks.
no problem!
At five o'clock in the evening, Li Rui took a bus to the address given by Ma Wenxuan. This is a private manor outside Haizhou. It covers a vast area and has a quiet environment. There is a security guard standing guard at the door.
Ma Shaotian and Ma Wenxuan were already waiting at the door. Li Rui got out of the car and went over to say hello to them respectfully.
Li Rui, long time no see. Wenxuan told me that she had received your help a few days ago. Her career went smoothly, which saved me a lot of trouble as a father. I want to thank you too. Ma Shaotian smiled
The way.
Li Rui said: Mr. Ma, you are so polite!
After a few greetings, Ma Shaotian said again: There is a private auction here today, and I was invited to be a guest. Later, you will also help me with your eyes.
Li Rui smiled bitterly: Mr. Ma has been awarded, but I don’t have the ability to tell the truth, it’s purely based on luck.
Ma Shaotian said meaningfully: Luck is also part of ability, so don’t be humble.
While they talked, they walked into the manor. Although it was winter, they could still see the extraordinary style. There were all kinds of traditional pavilions and towers in the country, and a large southern garden landscape. If they came here in summer, they would be beautiful.
Soon someone came over and saw Ma Shaotian and smiled and said with a smile: Master Ma, welcome, you can come, I am so glorious here!
Haha, Hello, Boss Jing! Ma Shaotian smiled and said.
Boss Jing looked at Li Rui and Ma Wenxuan again: What are these two?
Ma Shaotian said: This is my daughter Ma Wenxuan, this is my child Li Rui.
It turned out that it was Miss Ma and Mr. Li, so lucky! Boss Jing shook hands diligently and handed over the business card.
Li Rui glanced at him and was slightly stunned.
Boss Jing’s business card is very simple, with only one line of words on the front except for the name.
[Jing Ruohai, Executive Director of Huishang Culture Research Association]
Such a simple business card is extremely rare and can only be used by people with great confidence.
This name is also interesting.
Hui Shang is the general name of Huizhou merchants, commonly known as Hui Gang. Its history can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. Its heyday was from the late Ming Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty. It was one of the three most famous merchant gangs in history.
Every contemporary Hui merchant is very low-key, hiding behind various large companies and large enterprises. Although they are not usually visible, once someone needs help, they will immediately respond and help each other.
Li Rui had never heard of this Jing Ruohai in his previous life, but it can be imagined that this person should be quite energetic.
Jing Ruohai picked up a few people and walked towards a small Hui style building with a chat and laughter, and greeted Ma Shaotian while walking.
Boss Jing, have you not held an auction here some days? Why is there no news before this time? It was so sudden? Ma Shaotian asked.
Jing Ruohaidao: It was indeed a bit hasty. The main reason was that several sellers were in a hurry to take it off, so I didn’t have time to find an expert to identify it. So today I would like to ask Master Ma to help me!
Ma Wenxuan and Li Rui followed behind. When she heard this, she lowered her voice and said: Boss Jing said this, which means that the origin of the goods tonight is unknown, whether they are true or false, he can't tell the truth himself, so he would invite my father to come over.
.
A newly dug out from the ground? Li Rui asked.
That may not be true. Ma Wenxuan shook her head. If you dare to buy that kind of thing, he will not dare to sell it, otherwise something will happen sooner or later. It is likely that things obtained through some means during the turmoil. They dare not auction them publicly, and they can only sell them in such places.
.
Li Rui nodded and understood.
During the turbulent era, many antique cultural relics changed hands due to inhuman reasons. Although decades have passed, public auctions may still cause controversy, so it is better to take action secretly.
While talking, several people entered the small building, which contained a beautifully decorated Hui style living room. Some guests were already waiting. They looked very elegant in their clothes and even saw some familiar faces.
Mr. Ma, are you here too?
Hello, Master Ma.
Mr. Ma, is it yours today? Then I feel relieved!
Ma Shaotian has a high status in this industry. As soon as he entered the door, many people came forward to greet him enthusiastically.
Ma Shaotian greeted each other and introduced Ma Wenxuan and Li Rui to them.
Everyone was chatting enthusiastically, and a soft hum suddenly came from a distance.
Li Rui had a sharp ear and looked at him in search of the sound.
There were several people standing in the corner, looking at this side with disdain.
The young man in the suit curled his lips and said: I heard that Ma Shaotian has gone bankrupt, why are he so embarrassed to come out to be a master?
This is very blunt, and many people heard it.
Ma Shaotian's face darkened, he looked over there, and snorted coldly.
Jing Ruohai quickly whispered: Master Ma, there is a member of the Guo family from Hong Kong Island, and it was brought by Professor Liu Yan. Recently, the Guo family entered the collection industry with a large amount of money and swept a lot of goods. They are the biggest customer of this auction.
He said this because he was afraid that Ma Shaotian would not be able to hold back and argue with the other party, so it would be difficult to do both sides.
Hong Kong Guo family? Ma Shaotian frowned.
Li Guozheng, the four major families in Hong Kong, are all super rich people with a net worth of hundreds of billions. They can find names on the Quanyazhou and even the world's rich list. Even the oldmoneys in China can only compare with him, let alone him.
Second-rate rich man.
Liu Yan, who brought the Guo family, is a professor at the Xiaguo University of Culture and Arts, and is also a popular connoisseur in the collection industry in recent years. He often participates in some TV treasure appraisal programs and is very famous.
Because he was a professional, Liu Yan always looked down on the self-taught world like Ma Shaotian. He often said sarcastic words in newspapers and magazines, and the relationship between the two sides was not very harmonious.
No wonder, the Guo family clearly had nothing to do with Ma Shaotian, but they spoke wildly as soon as they met.
Ma Shaotian had already passed the age of being full of energy and smiled and said: I came for your face, just let them say less.
Jing Ruohai hurried over and whispered to the young man in the Guo family. The young man shrugged and took Liu Yan and others to the back hall.
Ma Wenxuan said angrily: Dad, they are too arrogant!
Ma Shaotian said lightly: Forget it, I can't afford to offend me.
Li Rui was silent and suddenly asked: Did Liu Yan often participate in treasure appraisal programs just now?
Ma Shaotiandao: That’s right. Do you know him too?
