I am doing well in the Siheyuan
Chapter 227 The auction is approaching, Ye Ming’s plan!
Cheng Jianjun agreed to the request of Guan's father and mother, and was excited when he learned that they had abundant funds.
In addition, the two of them had connections with Han Chunming, which made it even more difficult for him to refuse this opportunity.
This time, Cheng Jianjun did not tell Li Huaide, but revealed the matter privately to Qin Jingru.
"Can it work with just the two of us? Would it be too risky?"
Qin Jingru was a little surprised when she heard Cheng Jianjun's plan. Her concern was not that she didn't dare to do it, but that the risk was too high.
"What are you afraid of? I'm here!"
Cheng Jianjun was full of confidence. Last time, he teamed up with Li Huaide to trick Uncle Liu. He thought it would be no different this time as they had changed the target.
"Okay, let's give it a try!"
Qin Jingru finally agreed to cooperate. She had worked with Cheng Jianjun before, and now under Li Huaide, Cheng Jianjun also created many opportunities for her to perform.
After some arrangements made by Cheng Jianjun, Guan's father and mother successfully entered the Fulai Auction House.
Qin Jingru personally opened the warehouse door and led several people to a spare warehouse.
Although there are not many antiques in the warehouse, each one is exquisite.
"Are these antiques that will be auctioned soon?"
After Guan's mother stepped into the warehouse, her face darkened and the corners of her lips tightened slightly.
“This is just one of the warehouses.”
Qin Jingru nodded in response.
“Can you tell us about the antiques here?”
Guan's father then made a request.
Cheng Jianjun agreed and gave a detailed introduction to each antique.
After listening to the introduction, Guan's father and mother exchanged glances, showing great interest.
After finishing the selection, they chose a few antiques that they liked.
"Jianjun, we all like these antiques, but the price you quoted is indeed a bit high. Can you give us a 20% discount?"
When it came to the price, Guan's mother asked expectantly.
"This... I'm afraid I can't make the decision alone."
Cheng Jianjun pretended to be hesitant, but in fact he was afraid that the low price would arouse their suspicion.
During their interactions, he discovered that Guan's father and mother were more shrewd and cautious than Uncle Liu. They asked questions one after another and never let go of any details easily.
Cheng Jianjun did not think the problem was with himself, but rather that these two people were naturally suspicious.
"You don't have to hide it from me. Even though it takes some effort to arrange things, there is still room for profit even if it is 20% lower than the market price. Your supply channels can't be limited to the Forty-Nine Cities!"
Guan's mother raised her eyebrows and acted as if she knew what was going on.
After hearing this, Cheng Jianjun was not moved and still showed an indecisive attitude.
"If you can buy in large quantities, a 20% reduction is not out of the question."
Qin Jingru saw through Cheng Jianjun's thoughts and spoke first.
She didn't have so many calculations. These fake antiques were worthless in the warehouse. Even if they were sold at 20% below the market price, it would still be a huge profit for the buyers!
Guan's father and mother glanced at Qin Jingru in surprise.
"Jianjun, since you can't make a decision, let's look at something else."
Guan's mother adopted a strategy of retreating in order to advance and turned around to continue selecting antiques.
Qin Jingru wanted to continue speaking, but Cheng Jianjun stopped her with a look.
After a moment, Cheng Jianjun made a new offer: "A half-cent discount, I can accept it."
However, Guan's mother had already begun to doubt Cheng Jianjun and her trust in him had greatly decreased.
"Okay, we'll come to you next time if we need anything!"
Cheng Jianjun nodded in agreement, secretly groaning in his heart.
Cheng Jianjun did not return to the warehouse until he had sent Guan's father and mother away.
"We were clearly talking about it well, why did you suddenly decide not to buy it?"
Qin Jingru started to complain.
"You shouldn't have agreed to a 20% price reduction so easily. They are as shrewd as foxes. They must be getting suspicious now!"
Cheng Jianjun was also helpless. He didn't expect the other party to be so cunning.
At this moment, Guan's father and mother, who walked out of the Foley Auction House, were also discussing this matter.
"Didn't we agree to reduce the price by 20%? Why do you suddenly not want it anymore?"
Guan's father was a little puzzled.
"I think there might be something wrong with those antiques. Although it's the warehouse of the Foley Auction House, who stipulates that everything in it must be real antiques? And that woman agreed too readily. If the price drops by 20%, the loss will be at least tens of thousands of dollars. How can it be so easy?"
After becoming suspicious, Guan's mother discovered a number of suspicious points.
"Then are we still going to Foley's Auction House to buy antiques?"
When Guan's father saw that Guan's mother became suspicious, his trust in the Foley Auction House began to waver.
"Of course we have to go. Antiques sold through auctions are unlikely to be fake. It can only be said that Cheng Jianjun's line is not working. I guess he had some crooked ideas after learning that we don't know much about antiques."
Guan's mother looked confident and made a clear distinction.
"you're right!"
Guan's father nodded in agreement.
Although the price at the auction is slightly higher, it is obviously more secure.
Just when Cheng Jianjun's fraud plan failed, Liu Haizhong was summoned into the office by Li Huaide.
In the office, the burly and slightly fat man with Liu Haizhong stood in front of Li Huaide, breathing heavily, and bent down as much as possible to keep his eyes level with Li Huaide.
"Mr. Li, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Li Huaide looked at Liu Haizhong and said with satisfaction: "Liu Haizhong, I have seen your performance recently. You have done a good job in signing and fingerprinting. I plan to transfer a bonus to your bank card. This is an extra reward for you personally."
"How much is the prize money?"
When he heard that there was money to be made, Liu Haizhong's eyes widened, but he soon realized his gaffe and quickly adjusted his attitude.
"Oh, Mr. Li, you are too polite. It is my honor to work for you. How dare I ask for money..."
Li Huaide pretended not to care: "Don't be polite to me here. I transferred 500,000 yuan to you. The tasks in the next few days may be heavy, so you have to pay attention."
"Five, five hundred thousand? Thank you...thank you, Mr. Li!"
Liu Haizhong was stunned. He had never thought that he would have so much money in his life. He even stuttered when he spoke.
"Okay, work hard next time, you can go out first."
Li Huaide nodded slightly and let Liu Haizhong leave.
There was a sly gleam in the depths of his eyes.
Although the figure with bangs is quite plump, he gives people a feeling of lightness when moving.
Li Huaide watched his receding figure and shook his head helplessly.
According to the lunar calendar, February 8th is the day they plan to hold the auction. More than a week after the excitement of the Lantern Festival, there are only three or four days left to this date.
At this point, flyers and invitations have been distributed.
Ever since the news of the auction spread, the city of Beijing suddenly became lively. Many wealthy people were looking forward to it so much that invitations to the auction became very popular.
However, Ye Ming held several invitation letters in his hands, which were not from Li Huaide.
