Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 382 392 [Your Excellency]

Outside Christie's auction house——
Parked by the side of the road was a small white car with the brand of a very popular Honda Accord.No matter how you look at it, this car is very unremarkable. After all, this is Hong Kong, and there are many luxury cars, such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and even worse.

The young man who represented the auction came out of the auction house in a hurry, then looked around cautiously, and then walked up to the small car, bent slightly, with a respectful gesture.

A window of the car slowly opened, and an elderly man with the appearance of a ghost appeared from inside the car.

The old man had a big nose and small eyes, and looked very energetic. He glanced at the young man with sharp eyes, and then asked, "Why, it didn't work?"

The young man said ashamedly: "I'm sorry, I tried my best; the competition is too fierce." After finishing speaking, he briefly talked about the whole auction activity. When he patted away, it was obvious that there was a hint of surprise in the old man's eyes.

As an art lover, the old man usually collects many manuscripts of famous people, such as the manuscript of "The Raven" by the American writer Edgar Allan Poe, half of the manuscript of Dickens' novel "A Tale of Two Cities", and short story writers. O'Henry's "The Policeman and the Hymn" manuscript, etc.

For an old man, what he most wants to have in this life are the manuscripts of two people, one is the manuscript of the great British writer Shakespeare, and the other is the manuscript of the great Russian writer Pushkin.

Shakespeare's manuscripts were hard to come by, so the old man had no illusions, but this time Pushkin's manuscripts suddenly appeared at the auction, which surprised him very much.

Originally, the old man could easily take down this manuscript by virtue of his special status, but he knew that doing so would have a bad impact, so he had no choice but to secretly entrust his confidant to come to participate in the auction, hoping to be able to sell it in the auction house. He took a photo of this treasure in a serious manner, but what he didn't expect was... Hey, the price of 800 million was far beyond his expectations.

Sighing in his heart, an indescribable sense of loss hung on his face——normally, he would not show his true feelings like this in front of others, but at this moment, with only his confidant around, he could no longer hide his incomparable Lost mood.

Seeing the old man like this, the young man became even more uneasy, but the other party did not reprimand or criticize him, but just sighed and said: "Since God arranged it this way, I will give up."

The young man breathed a sigh of relief.

"Get in the car, let's leave." The old man ordered.

The young man hurriedly got into the car, but sat in the driver's seat. It turned out that he was the old man's personal driver.

After the car started slowly, the young man looked back at the old man, signaling him to sit down and start driving.

The old man had just moved his buttocks and adjusted his body when, thump, thud, someone knocked on the car window.

"What happened?" The old man was surprised for a while, and looked out of the car window, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, he was stunned.

I saw a handsome man in a white suit smiling politely at him outside.

The old man didn't open the car window, while the young man in front opened his car window, and asked the handsome man, "What's the matter?"

"Excuse me, can I speak to your boss?"

The young man was taken aback.

The handsome man continued: "To be precise, I really want to have a few words with Your Lord."

The young man was startled, and then looked at the old man sitting behind the car.

The old man was also shocked, but he immediately became calm.

Earlier, the young man said, "I'm sorry, you may have found the wrong person."

"Really?" The handsome man was not discouraged at all, but showed a very sunny smile, and then said, "Then, can I ask you to do me a favor?"

"What help?"

"Give this gift to the honorable lord behind." The handsome man said, and put something on the window of the car.

Young man: "..." After taking a look, it turned out to be a very old rectangular box, the whole body was light yellow, engraved with the sunflower, the national flower of Russia.

The young man couldn't help turning his head to look at the old man sitting behind him again.

The old man nodded.

Only then did the young man reach out to take it, and then said to the handsome man, "I have handed it over to him for you."

The handsome man smiled, but he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, bit it on his mouth, and lit it with his hands together, as if waiting patiently.

The young man who is a private driver can't say anything, because his master behind him hasn't spoken yet, so he can't make his own decisions.

……

Behind the car, the old man looked at the yellowed wooden box in his hand with a strange expression, and then opened the keychain on one side.

Both the box and the key chain are Russian style, and they feel smooth in the hand, which feels good, so it should be a good thing.

But what the old man was curious about at the moment was what was in the box, it looked quite precious.

He carefully picked the keychain with his fingers, and with a bang, the wooden box opened——
The old man couldn't help looking into the super box, and then he looked shocked.

……

Outside the car, beside the road——
The handsome man was smoking a cigarette slowly, and the car made a "beep beep" sound of the engine turning.

On several occasions, a female patrol officer on duty came over and told the young man sitting in the car that they could not park here for too long.

The young driver said very politely, stop for a while and leave immediately.

The female patrol officer on duty came over again, looked at the handsome man smoking, frowned and said: "Eat cigarettes, remember to throw the cigarette butts into the trash can - you will be fined for throwing cigarette butts casually!"

"I know, thank you Madam for reminding me." The handsome man said to the female patrol officer with a smile.

For some reason, the female patrol officer blushed suddenly, ashamed to stay here any longer, and left.

The handsome man watched the female patrolman leave, turned around, and was about to snuff out the cigarette in his hand, when suddenly, the window behind the car opened, and the old man showed half of his face and said to him, "Friend, you can come up now!"

……

Inside the car—
The handsome man got into the car.

The old man told the driver in front, "Drive."

"Where to go?"

"It doesn't matter where I go, the most important thing is that I can talk to this friend." The old man smiled and looked at the handsome man.

The handsome man smiled sincerely, then offered his hand and introduced himself, "Hello, my lord, my name is Song Zhichao."

The old man gave him a deep look, then shook hands with Song Zhichao, and said, "Don't call me Lord, since we have met, you should know who I am."

Song Zhichao smiled slightly and said, "Of course, dear Governor of Hong Kong --- Lord Wilson!"
