Global Treasure Hunting: From Penniless to Billionaire

Xu Wenqian said: "The local leader said that there is a scenic spot involved, and we need to communicate with the scenic spot."

Zhao An frowned and said, "In this way, you can say that what I want to build is a classical garden-style villa.

When designing, the scenery will be integrated into the design, so that the scenery will not be damaged,

And it can also enrich the elements of the scenic spot.

If it really doesn’t work, you can consider contracting out the scenic spot. It’s a second- and third-tier scenic spot, so what’s the point? "

Xu Wenqian said: "Okay, Mr. Zhao, I will try my best to operate and deal with it."

Zhao An nodded, and said to He Shuyao: "Recently, another sum of cash has been credited to my account.

A total of more than 500 billion was entered into the account twice, you go to the tax department to report the tax to me,

The leader of the Ministry of Industry once said that he would give me some tax relief, but he didn’t say how much.

So you can ask for me how much you have to pay, and I will pass it on to you. "

500 billion was entered into the account twice. This amount also shocked the two beauties a little. What kind of business does Mr. Zhao do in private, and he can earn more than 500 billion in a short period of time?

But judging by Zhao An's daring to file tax returns, it doesn't look like the kind that breaks the law, and there are leaders of the Ministry of Industry to take care of it?

Is this business done by Tongtian?Red top businessman?

Seeing the expressions of the two beauties, Zhao An said calmly: "Don't think too much, they are all legal income, so the tax that should be reported should be declared in an upright manner."

Only then did He Shuyao come back to her senses, and said with a slight smile, "Okay, Mr. Zhao, I'll be there in a while."

After explaining the work arrangement, Zhao An slipped away, drove back to Waterside Flower City, prepared a meal and waited for Li Zhiyuan to come back to eat together.

During these three days, Zhao An stayed in the villa, except for transferring money to He Shuyao once, he did nothing, just ate and slept, slept and ate.

Since he got the Eye of True Sight, he has never had such a relaxing rest, doing nothing, thinking about nothing,

There is nothing to do during the day, and someone does it at night.

Comfortable and comfortable.

On the fourth day, Zhao An woke up early in the morning, kissed Li Zhiyuan awake on the bed,

Li Zhiyuan put her arms around his neck lazily and said, "Why don't you go, anyway, the money from the auction will be called to you directly."

Zhao An kissed Li Zhiyuan's lips again, and said softly: "Let's go for a while, make more friends in the mall, it will be more convenient in the future."

Li Zhiyuan coquettishly said: "No, what are you doing with so much money? I don't care for your money, I only want your people!"

Zhao An said with a smile: "I am yours, your exclusive!"

Li Zhiyuan happily said: "Help me up, I can fight another 200 rounds!"

In the end, Zhao An got on the plane to Shanghai alone.

After exiting the station at Pudong Airport, I ran into Amy who came to pick me up.

Amy was still petite and cute, looked at Zhao An and said with a smile: "Look at how kind Miss Ben is to you, I'm the one who picks you up every time."

Zhao An raised his eyebrows and said, "Unfortunately, there is no tip."

Amy snorted coldly and said: "You, you still hold grudges, what kind of tip, it's so ugly to say, this lady is now a person who owns shares anyway, will you care about your tip?"

When Ai Qingrou left Ai Shi, she spent 15 billion to set up a new company, and gave her 5 girlfriends 10% of the shares, so now Amy is also a proper little rich woman,

Not to mention that she is still in charge of the financial power of Ai Qingrou's new company.

Zhao An got in the car, and Amy also started the car and said, "I'm afraid you don't know how big a storm your batch of auction items caused after we made them into brochures in the Yangtze River Delta, and even in the domestic rich circle. .”

Zhao An laughed and said, "This is a good thing. I wish the waves would be as big as possible, as long as they don't go abroad."

Amy smiled and said: "That can't be done, we strictly follow your request and only ferment in the circle of rich people in China.

However, there are still foreign rich people who heard the news and sent us a note, hoping to participate,

But they were all rejected by Qingrou! "

Zhao An clapped his hands and smiled, "Well done!"

Chapter 196 Antique Gold in Troubled Times

Ai Qingrou greeted Zhao An at the entrance of the hotel, and her other four girlfriends also followed.

After Zhao An got out of the car, he greeted with a smile: "Hi, long time no see, beauties! I'm so sorry to trouble you to greet me personally."

Ai Qingrou joked: "No way, now you are our God of Wealth, let alone greet you at the hotel entrance,

You can ask the six of us to carry the sedan chair for you. "

Zhao An said with a smile: "President Ai is serious. I don't like to eat alone. We are mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation."

After exchanging pleasantries, Ai Qingrou invited Zhao An in. She had already prepared a banquet and invited Zhao An to dinner.

At the dinner table, Ai Qingrou said to Zhao An: "In this auction, seven of the top ten richest people in China came.

We have invited all the rich locals in Shanghai who are well-ranked and love to collect, and almost all of them responded to us, expressing their willingness to participate in this auction. "

Zhao An nodded and smiled and said, "Antiques in prosperous times and gold in troubled times, this auction has both attributes, and it is normal to be welcomed to a certain extent.

Of course, your hard work has also played a big role. The smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys! "

Ai Qingju said: "I'm afraid that your wine is too fragrant and hot!"

Zhao An said with an oh: "What's the matter, where did you feel the pressure?"

Ai Qingrou shook her head and said, "The pressure is not too great. Since the release of our publicity brochure, we have frequently received applications from foreign countries, especially wealthy Westerners, who want to participate in the auction, but we have rejected them all."

"For example?" Zhao An asked curiously.

Ai Qingrou raised her eyebrows and said, "For example, Bezos, who was once the world's richest man, ranked first, and Bill Gates, who was second."

Zhao An chuckled and said, "Isn't their pursuit to collect the periodic table of elements? When did they start to be interested in gold antiques?"

The so-called collection of the periodic table of elements means to collect more than 118 gram of each of the 1 elements in the periodic table of elements and arrange them according to the periodic table of elements.

The office of Bill Gates, the president of Microsoft and the former richest man in the world, has such a wall made of the periodic table of elements, but with his financial resources, he only collected more than 90 of them.

Common elements in nature may be relatively cheap, but those with lower atomic sequences are super expensive.

For example, the francium element with an atomic number of 87 has a market valuation of US$10 billion per gram.

There are also some, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them,

Not to mention the collection, the preservation of some elements requires particularly expensive means.

Therefore, collecting elements is a very fascinating and sci-fi hobby, and it is not something ordinary people can afford.

But Gates and Bezos were also interested in this batch of treasures, which was unexpected by Zhao An.

Ai Qingrou drooped her shoulders and said, "How do I know, the world of the super rich is beyond my imagination."

Then he smiled proudly: "But I rejected them all. They sent representatives to participate."

Zhao An gave her a thumbs up and said, "Well done, those foreign devils back then,

When we were backward, we robbed our antiques and cultural heritage carriers,

Now it's our turn to share their cultural heritage carriers.

The aesthetics of our domestic rich is also great. "

After lunch, Ai Qingrou and the others took Zhao An to the auction venue.

The location of the auction is in a building near Hongqiao. The scene has already been arranged, and the security personnel have long been on standby.

There are also employees of Ai Qingrou Company, who are receiving the guests who arrived early,

After Ai Qingrou and the others arrived at the place, they arranged for Zhao An to rest in the backstage, and also joined the ranks of welcoming guests.

The time is getting closer, which is the time to start filming, and the number of guests attending the meeting gradually increased.

Those who knew each other gathered together to chat in twos and threes, and they talked about topics related to the auction.

Someone said: "Old Ma, tell me, if Alexander had not died at the beginning, but had continued to march eastward and crossed Congling, would he have been able to compete with the Seven Heroes of the Warring States that were fighting at that time?"

The old horse said solemnly: "Alexander's Eastern Expedition had less than 40 troops. At that time, Bai Qi of Qin State had something to say: I will not accept orders less than [-]!"

The old horse's humor made everyone laugh,

But some people still raised the bar: "The Macedonian phalanx created by Alexander is invincible in Eastern Europe and West Asia, and it is not necessarily inferior to the strength of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period!"

The old horse laughed and said, "It's all right for him to be invincible in Eastern Europe. If he really dares to come, he will be greeted by an overwhelming array of Qin crossbowmen. One hundred thousand Qin army crossbowmen will teach them how to behave."

Someone also asked: "Lao Ma, how much of the gold crafts from the Alexander period in this auction do you think is real?"

The old horse said solemnly: "According to the publicity manual, this batch of antique handicrafts has integrated the style of the ancient Jewish period.

The shape of the utensils is almost in line with the characteristics of the time, especially those golden candlesticks, which have cultural characteristics in the Mediterranean area.

So I think, mostly true. "

Immediately, someone gave Lao Ma a thumbs up and said: "Old Ma, your knowledge is really not covered."

But Zhao An knew that this old horse took advantage of Ai Qingrou and said so on purpose.

These things can be hidden from ordinary rich people, but they cannot be hidden from top industry experts like Lao Ma.

The good thing is that he gave him one of the handicrafts, which was approved by Zhao An.

And for professionals like Lao Ma, Ai Qingrou also invited three, and they all gave benefits.

Although these handicrafts were not from the Alexander Empire, they were produced by the Solomon Dynasty, which was older than it.

The age is even longer, and it is not considered a violation of professional ethics. If you have to be serious, experts can also say that they have drilled holes, and it is commonplace in the antique industry to drill holes.

When the time came, the guests also took their seats.

After Ai Qingrou came to the stage and said a few words, the auction officially started.

The first lot to be auctioned is a set of treasure gold coins, 100 gold coins in a set,

The auctioneer, who looked very professional, introduced enthusiastically: "Today's first auction is this set of gold coins from the Alexander Empire period.

It was identified and confirmed as genuine by five domestic experts, and it is indeed a gold coin from 2300 years ago, which is rare in the world.

At Sotheby's auction in Europe in 2013, a gold coin from the Solomon Dynasty was auctioned.

The auction price was 120 million euros. Although the gold coin set we auctioned today is nearly 400 years later than the Solomon Dynasty, the Alexander Empire was more glorious than the Solomon Dynasty.

There are very few gold coins in existence, and they are all collected by major collectors.

So our first lot today, a set of gold coins from the Alexander Empire period, a set of 100 gold coins,

The starting price is 1000 million RMB, and each increase should not be less than 10 RMB!

Please bid! "

"2000 million!" The best fan favorite, the old horse, immediately bid.

Chapter 197 The Hot Auction Site

The old horse has already bid, and the guests have no hesitation, and bid one after another:

"2100 million!"

"2500 million!"

"3000 million!"

……

Although there are few auctions of foreign antique handicrafts in China, it doesn’t mean that Chinese people don’t like them, it’s just because there are not so many ways.

The Chinese nation is inclusive and has a strong inclusive and universal aesthetic.

You can appreciate everything from the ghost culture of Japan to the Aztec and Toltec cultures of the Mayans.

Moreover, the Alexander Empire was very prosperous, spanning the three continents of Europe, Asia and Africa. Antique gold coins from 2300 years ago can also add bragging capital to the rich in the country.

Therefore, this set of gold coins was sought after by rich people as soon as it appeared on the stage, and it was not entirely due to the old horse taking the lead.

While Zhao An was thinking, the quotation for the gold coin set was also rising steadily, and soon surpassed a small goal, and was not far away from two small goals.

And there are still a lot of people who want to buy it, and more than a dozen people are chasing after each other, for fear of missing the opportunity.

"3000 million to [-] million yuan! Don't argue!" A rich middle-aged man complained while making an offer.
