money trouble

Chapter 215 Blockbuster auction [2]

Although Adele's reputation is not as high as the Beatles, she is indeed regarded as a British national treasure singer, and even won more awards than the Beatles, and she is also the richest female singer in the UK, with a certain degree of celebrity effect.But Adele may not be able to reach the heights of the Beatles in her lifetime, because the Beatles are carrying out a musical revolution.

"Partridge Green Manor, estimated price is 600 million pounds, starting price is 500 million pounds, and the auction will start... 501... 502..."

The popularity of Partridge Green Manor is not low. Wu Qian can see it through the computer screen. The auction boards in the auction venue rise and fall like waves of wheat, and the auctioneer keeps asking prices.

Wu Qian's "bidding team" did not participate in the first wave of bidding, so there is no point in joining in the fun at this time, all you need to do is watch quietly.

"534 million pounds, 535 million pounds, is there any more? Okay, this lady is offering 536 million, 537, 538..." The auctioneer is not an easy job, and has high requirements on the shoulder joints, cervical spine and voice , yes, and visual acuity.

Wu Qian looked at the atmosphere at the scene, and said to Kux who was sitting on the side: "Sell 666 million pounds to see the situation." After several auctions, I also wanted to make a decision on my own, and I used a very "auspicious" number.

For this price, Wu Qian felt that it was cheap from the bottom of his heart. His villa in No. 1000 Manor in Beijing covers an area of ​​just over 8000 square meters and cost 910 million yuan, which is equivalent to more than 85 million pounds. There are 34.4 acres here. , [-] square meters!

Cooks was a little confused about the number 666, but he followed his advice.

"576 million pounds, and... oh, the telephone bidding price is 666 million pounds, 666 million pounds, god, I don't know which mysterious buyer it is." The last sentence was originally a confession in the auctioneer's heart. Excited, whispered out.

There was an uproar at the scene because of this offer. Everyone was having a good time, but you paid me 10000 pounds for 10000 pounds. Why did a player who didn't follow the rules suddenly pop up!what a disappointment...

Rosalind and David knew that it was Wu Qian who made the price, and they were in a real-time conversation. Wu Qian's asking price slightly exceeded Rosalind's estimate. She felt that the asking price of 630-650 was fine, and it was definitely possible. It is not impossible to sweep away a group of people directly, or even win directly.

Once the situation of a large price increase occurs, the bidders will start to think about it. The first thing that comes to mind is that this guy is probably not arranged by the auction house, and then they will think whether some big person is secretly bidding. Everything is broadcast live. If you compete with the other party, it is not good to be held hostage. Big people are sometimes very cautious.

The auctioneer was very upset. Originally there were still seven or eight people competing, and the situation was good. If he shouted slowly, the multi-party competition was on the line, and it might be higher than 666 million, but the large price increase made the scene cool down instantly.

Under the strong advocacy of the auctioneer, a man was about to raise the auction board, and Rosalind hurriedly shouted, "680 million pounds!"

Sure enough, when Rosalind finished shouting out the price, the man who was about to raise the auction sign shook his head regretfully, and put down the sign in his hand.

The manor with an estimated price of 600 million pounds was auctioned for 680 million pounds, which was 13% higher, which is a good result. Most of the previous properties were 8%-13% higher than the estimated price.

The timing of Rosalind's outcry was very well grasped. The auctioneer cursed a few words in his heart and kept bragging, but this time it had no effect, and there was no movement from the telephone operator. Finally, Only three two one, bang.

"Rosalind, well done!" Wu Qian praised. He had already asked Kux to offer 700 million pounds, and Rosalind's asking price helped him save 20 pounds.

The auction continued, and immediately after the Partridge Green estate was the Hirschman Castle that Wu Qian complained about.In the magnificent scenery on the big screen in the auction venue, Hirschmann Castle stands majestically in the morning sun, looking very solemn, with a sense of inviolable solemnity.

Bidders who have not entered the castle for on-the-spot investigation will definitely be fooled by the awesome shooting effect.

Wu Qian watched others compete for this castle with only an appearance, perhaps because many interested parties had visited it, and the atmosphere of the auction was not very enthusiastic, but there were still three people competing all the way, and finally Hirschmann Castle was bought at a price comparable to the estimated price.

"There are fools, but not many..." Wu Qian said with a smile.

The moment the auction hammer fell, Wu Qian's heart became tense, because the next thing to be auctioned was Leeds Castle!
Through the computer screen, Wu Qian could see that not only did he get nervous, but also some subtle changes took place in the atmosphere of the scene. A small group of people sat upright unconsciously, as if the horn of battle was about to sound, Waiting to carry a gun and charge.

"Ho ho, Kux, I'm a little nervous. What about you?" Wu Qian rubbed his hands together and said, he was both nervous and excited, feeling the excitement of hiding in the dark and doing bad things.

Wu Qian was nervous because he knew something in advance, but for those who didn't know, the feeling was not so deep.

Kux wasn't very nervous at first, but when he saw Wu Qian eager to try, he secretly sighed and said, "Boss, I'm nervous too..."

Kux's nervousness is different from Wu Qian's. What he is nervous about is how to deal with the aftermath if Leeds Castle is really photographed by his BOSS. I'm afraid he will have to face the wrath of the Italians.

Wu Qian roughly calculated the money he spent, and looked at the remaining funds. He felt as if he hadn't calculated his funds so seriously.

Before participating in the auction, Wu Qian still had 47 billion soft sister coins left, which is about 5.4 million pounds. The bidding for cultural relics cost 308 million pounds, the guitar used by the Beatles cost 55 pounds, and the two watches totaled 980 million pounds The Partridge Green estate spent 680 million pounds, excluding auction commissions, a total of 2023 million pounds, leaving about 5.2 million pounds.

5.2 million pounds, which is definitely a huge amount of money. Sotheby's autumn auction has been going on so far, and all the transaction prices add up to not so much.

"This money should be enough..." Wu Qian looked at the phone and thought.

In the auction house, Rosalind received a call from Bauer while the auctioneer was introducing Leeds Castle.

"Rosalind, the situation is very wrong. There are many people around Leeds Castle..." Bauer's current location is more than 3 kilometers away from Leeds Castle, but figures can already be seen haunting the jungle, and there seems to be more than one wave People and horses.

Rosalind gave a brief reply to Bauer, and then stopped talking. She asked David to rush back to the hotel through the communication device, and at the same time, she told Wu Qian about the situation.
