Chapter 715 God's arrangement?
Roses, candles, red wine...

Rather than a dinner, it is more appropriate to say that a candlelight dinner is more appropriate. Whether it is the environment or the atmosphere, there is absolutely nothing missing. The only thing missing is a luthier playing the violin. However, there is no light bulb, and the atmosphere is even more blurred. If you sit Here are two young couples, and they will definitely go to open a room immediately after the dinner. This may be the most regrettable point now.

Li Dacheng is sitting at one end of the dining table. From his angle, through the blooming flowers and the warm candlelight, he can just see Monica sitting at the other end of the dining table. Very hazy feeling, there is a feeling of looking at flowers in a trance, maybe this is the true meaning of the candlelight dinner.

It's a pity that Li Dacheng was unprepared when he came. He was wearing ordinary casual clothes, which was a bit out of tune with the atmosphere. Compared with Li Dacheng's casualness, Monica tonight can be said to be dressed up, her long hair was braided and immediately A white low-cut lace dress is reminiscent of an English girl in the [-]th century, and a string of white pearl necklaces on her chest symbolizes her aristocratic status. I sigh in my heart, it's like walking out of a painting, that kind of charm, that kind of temperament, innate, definitely not something that can be cultivated with a few dollars.

Oh!
Li Dacheng almost forgot that the other party's mother was originally a nobleman of the British royal family, and Monica also had the blood of the royal family, but Li Dacheng had never thought about being able to sit with such a person.

"How does the vegetable soup taste?" Monica looked at Li Dacheng and asked, her piercing eyes were more affectionate against the candlelight, and at the same time, she showed her charming side to the fullest. This is a very understanding A woman who creates an atmosphere and maximizes her own advantages can also be said to be a smart woman.

"Very good, the taste is light and not the original taste of vegetables, I guess there should be..." Li Dacheng said while tasting, like a gourmet, and he was used to gobble it up before, like a completely different person of.

No way, the environment is like this, so you have to behave like a gentleman, right?

In fact, he has repeated this sentence many times. No matter what he eats, Monica will ask him again, even if it is salad, bread, dessert and drink, he will not let him go. He always has to rack his brains to think of all the words to praise the food. Although the other party's food is not as delicious as described, it is better not to disappoint a woman's heart. Embarrassment can be resolved in a white lie, not to mention What Monica cooks is not bad at all. If this is her first time cooking, then her talent is still very high.

Sure enough, upon hearing Li Dacheng's praise, the smile on Monica's face became even brighter, and her eyes seemed to flow out of water.

"Actually, I don't think it's as good as you said." Monica said modestly. I don't know if it was shyness or the reason for the candlelight. Her face was flushed and very charming. "I don't know your taste. How about this, I use the most traditional local production method, and at the same time refer to your Chinese people's food taste, research and improve the taste by myself, I don't know if it suits your taste."

"Huaxia has a vast territory, not to mention every region, even people in every province and city have different tastes." Li Dacheng said, "However, I don't reject any taste, I like the local I also like to try novel flavors, and today’s dinner tastes very good, let’s put it this way, your improvement is very successful.”

Li Dacheng's words are definitely not meant as a compliment. To him, this is indeed a taste he has never tasted before, because he has never eaten a British meal in a serious way. They came and left in a hurry, and there was no time to taste the food here. At most, they just had a steak and a hamburger. As for when they were at sea, the cooks of the salvage fleet were Italian and French, not the same as the British. dime relationship.

"Really? That's really great." Monica said happily, "Since you also like local tastes, how about I cook you the most authentic British meal tomorrow?"

"Okay!" Li Dacheng responded, but he was muttering in his heart. He had only heard of French cuisine, but had never heard of British cuisine. In his impression, dim sum should be the most famous in Britain, not Invite him to have morning tea and afternoon tea every day, right?

Monica was secretly delighted, and unknowingly made an appointment for another meal. Counting, although the two have known each other for a long time, the number of times they actually ate together can be counted on one hand. It was a wish of hers, and it was great to be able to realize it today.

"Dacheng, how long are you going to stay in the UK this time?" Monica asked after drinking the red wine, looking at Li Dacheng who was opposite. It is very popular in the upper class, and people come to buy it every year, which is also part of the income of the estate.

"Originally, I planned to stay for a few months. I will leave after the branch office is in normal operation and the auction is over." Li Dacheng sighed softly and said, "But now, the company needs a month to renovate, so I Might be leaving soon."

"Ah? Why?" Monica asked inexplicably, her face was full of disappointment, and at the same time she began to curse Rossi in her heart, why the other party's work efficiency was so poor.

"I can't stay and supervise the work, can I?" Li Dacheng said with a wry smile, "There are many more important things waiting for me to do."

Monica looked sad, stared straight at the napkin on the table with her head down, raised her head after a long time, and asked pitifully, "Can't you stay a few more days? You've been busy, you should Give yourself a break?"

"Huh? What you said seems to make sense. I've been so busy recently that I've been a little dizzy. I've been thinking about many things, but I forgot in the end." After hearing Monica's suggestion, Li Dacheng thought about it seriously, and took the branch office. As far as decoration is concerned, this is common sense, and he has thought about it, but he has been too busy recently, so he forgot about it and wasted a month of time.

Is this the arrangement of God?
God sees that he is too busy during this time, so give him a month to rest?If that's the case, he's really embarrassed to go against the sky, after all, he has been a god before and knows how powerful the god is.

Thinking about the preparations going on here, there seems to be nothing wrong at the headquarters, so it should be fine to rest for a few days.

Seeing that Li Dacheng was hesitating, Monica hurriedly persuaded, "If you want to open a branch in the UK, you should at least understand the situation in various parts of the UK, right? Also, is your branch going to target the entire European market? Do you want to walk around several central cities?"

Li Dacheng nodded thoughtfully. In order to search for celebrities, he traveled almost all over Europe, but he just walked around and did not conduct in-depth research on the art market and auction market. I understand, he only asked Zheng Tong and Chen Shan to investigate, but why didn't he need it himself?

"Okay, then I'll listen to you, half rest and half investigation." Li Dacheng thought for a while and said, while taking a rest, he took care of the business. It was a good idea, which was effortless and made reasonable use of time.

"Great!" Monica stood up excitedly, looked at Li Dacheng and said happily, "Tomorrow I will take you around the UK and introduce some of my friends to you. Many of them like art For jewelry and jewellery, I think they will be there on the day of the auction.”

"Then I'll thank you in advance." If he can attract enough famous people, it will be a success for Li Dacheng. He doesn't care how much he earns in the first shot, as long as he becomes famous.

"You're welcome, you're too far-fetched. With our relationship, do you still need to say thank you?" Monica seemed to realize that her behavior was a bit extreme, so she sat down again and straightened her clothes, especially the skirt. All the creases were smoothed out by him. She didn't want to make herself look nondescript, which would affect her overall image.

The candlelight dinner ended in such a warm environment. Li Dacheng was okay, he only drank half a glass of wine, and most of the time he drank mineral water. Wait, at the end of the dinner, Qiao blushed, she didn't know if she was shy, or she drank too much.

After leaving the restaurant, Li Dacheng entered a utility room under the leadership of Monica. After opening a secret door, the two walked down the steps to the ground.

This is another purpose of his coming here today.

Fingerprint unlocking, password unlocking, the door to the basement finally opened, and boxes of treasures appeared in front of Li Dacheng. For these treasures, Li Dacheng was both familiar and unfamiliar. It was stored here with Monica not long after it was salvaged, and he remembered to play with it well before he came.

The antiques shipped back to the country are only a small part, not accounting for one-fifth of the total. Even Huaxia's antiques are still stored here, but compared with those shipped back, the value of the remaining ones is higher. It is not unique to have a discount, but it is some that are more sought-after in the international market, such as porcelain and the like.

"I heard that you plan to hold two auctions in Europe and America within this year?" Monica walked into the basement, which has now been turned into a treasure room. The treasures accumulated here even far exceed the value of the manor. , She even felt that it was comparable to the wealth of the Fendini family.

"Yes." Li Dacheng walked into one of the rooms. This room was filled with gold, as well as various gold utensils, gold pots, gold basins, etc. It felt like coming to a golden mountain. .

"I don't think two games are enough, at least [-] games are needed to digest the treasures here." Monica said, even though she was born in a wealthy family and has the blood of the royal family, it is the first time she has seen so many treasure.

"No hurry, just pick some out first, check the market conditions, and then arrange the second auction based on the results of the first auction." Li Dacheng said lightly, originally he was quite nervous about the auction, But seeing the treasures here, the nervous feeling disappeared without a trace. The reason is very simple. With so many treasures, it is difficult to fail the auction.

"I'm worried that before these treasures are photographed, you will bring back more treasures than this. By then, my basement here may not be enough." Monica said jokingly, this basement is actually A bunker with very complete facilities, even if the ground is bombed by missiles in turn, it will not be affected in any way. The original intention of building it back then was to avoid the war. I didn't expect the war to catch up. Instead, it was used to store treasures. This is a bunker of hundreds of square meters.

Li Dacheng was slightly taken aback when he heard it, and now he finally understood what Monica meant. In fact, during the month of company renovation, his original plan was to go out to sea with the fleet to salvage as much treasure as he could. Now listen to When Monica said this, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

In addition, Rossi's fleet has not returned yet. You must know that there are more than 20 boxes of treasure on the salvage ships, all of which he salvaged on the way from Africa to China last month.

"It doesn't matter. My sea base is under intensive construction. When the construction is completed there, the salvaged treasures will be stored there." Li Dacheng said, the island has been bought, and construction started more than a month ago. With the current Judging from the investment, the construction can be completed in a year, and he will have his own base by then.

Well, let's stop for a year first, anyway, the treasures in the sea, except for him, no one else can get them if they want to, that's how confident they are.

"If you need anything, just tell me. I can't guarantee it in other places, but in the UK, I can still speak up." Monica said, with a strong sense of confidence in her words.

"Don't worry, I won't be polite to you." Li Dacheng smiled, and he would not store the treasure here if he was polite.

Li Dacheng concentrated on picking treasures. As the lot of the first international auction, he had to take each lot seriously.

As a royal family member, Monica knows a lot about antiques and works of art. Li Dacheng is weak in this area, so when he encounters uncertain treasures, he will always ask Monica for advice, such as goldware and jewelry. , weapons, armor, etc., but it is a pity that more treasures are wiped out due to the erosion of sea water, otherwise there will be more types of treasures.
