Chapter 669 Opening of the Auction

The early bird catches the worm. In the early morning, the three of them who practiced all night woke up one after another. After some tenderness, they got up, washed and had breakfast.

After seven o'clock, the three of them were enjoying delicious food, Li Chengtian and Jiang Yudao called one after another.After chatting with them for a few words, Kuangji hung up the phone.

After breakfast, the two girls dressed up carefully, and Kuang Ji took them out of the villa.

At this time, on the pier of Dongwan Island, Li Chengtian was already waiting there.

"Mr. Kuang, did you disturb your rest? The special auction held by Lei's this time is in the city of Longgang, which is a long way from here. It will take us more than an hour to rush there. Sorry for the interruption." As soon as we met, Li Chengtian explained.

"Oh, it's fine if we agreed to go there by ourselves. Why did Mr. Li come here in person? It's me who should say forgive me!" Kuang Ji replied politely.

The two greeted for a while, and Kuang Ji boarded Li Chengtian's yacht.Soon, the yacht started and headed towards Longgang at high speed.

"Mr. Kuang, Uncle Jiang was going to come here in person, but he is old and lacks energy, so let me say sorry for him." On the yacht, Li Chengtian said.

"Hehe, Mr. Jiang's words are serious. I feel a little embarrassed that Mr. Li came here in person. How can I work for Mr. Jiang anymore." Kuang Ji replied with a calm smile.

After speaking, he began to ask about the auction.

"Mr. Kuang, the scale of this special auction is very large, because the scope of publicity is very wide, and it has attracted many big financial groups and private collectors." Li Chengtian said enviously.

"Lei's auctioned a total of [-] antiques this time, carefully selected from tens of thousands of items, each of which is priceless. Among them, more than a dozen are porcelain, five bronze and iron wares, five miscellaneous and Three strange things." Li Chengtian introduced.

"Oh, only [-] items were selected out of tens of thousands of items. Why are there so few?" Kuangji couldn't help asking.

Hearing Kuang Ji's question, Li Chengtian smiled and replied: "It's not bad to have thirty pieces. It seems that there are tens of thousands of antiques, but in fact most of them are mass-produced things. Except for a little historical research value, there is no Not many people are interested in it. Moreover, among the [-] antiques selected, only some of them are high-quality official kilns from the Song Dynasty, and some of them are unique, so they are extremely valuable. Lei Shi can select [-] pieces at one time. It’s totally a blessing.”

Li Chengtian was obviously jealous.

"Hehe, yes, in the overseas trade of the Song Dynasty, porcelain, silk and tea were the most traded. Not to mention that silk and tea are difficult to preserve, but only porcelain. At that time, it was impossible to export a large amount of official kiln porcelain." Kuang Ji said here After a pause, he asked again: "But I heard that there were also many high-quality folk kiln porcelains at that time, why not auction them together this time?"

"After all, folk kilns and official kilns are incomparable. A piece of official kiln porcelain is at least tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, while private kiln porcelain is only a few million high-quality pieces. Besides, the auction organized by Lei's this time will be high-quality goods. Under the guise, how could they let the goods from the folk kilns lower the price of official kiln porcelain!" Li Chengtian explained.

"Oh, apart from these thirty items, what did they do with the rest?" Kuangji asked.

"Hey, Lei's has no shortage of smart people. They donated those things with extremely low economic value to museums everywhere. After all, they are things from the Song Dynasty, and they still have a little historical value. As for the remaining part of the antiques, they are auctioning After the meeting, a trade fair was specially organized, under the pretense of not letting every guest return empty-handed, but in fact it was just to make money." Li Chengtian replied.

After listening to Li Chengtian's explanation, Kuang Ji couldn't help but smile.

"Lei's is really familiar with business. In this way, he not only gained a good reputation, but also gained a lot of money. It seems that it is not unreasonable for him to develop." Kuang Ji laughed.

"Lei's current family member is called Lei Wenqi. He is still active in the business world in his 70s. It can be said that Lei's development to the present level is entirely driven by him. Uncle Jiang once told me, Among the few self-made people in Longgang, the one he admires the most is Lei Wenqi." Li Chengtian sighed with emotion, with a little regret on his face.

The competitive relationship between Li Chengtian's Li family and Lei family can be traced back to Li Chengtian's father's generation. However, Lei Wenqi is still alive, and his reputation in the business world is getting bigger and bigger. Lei's swallowed it, so in recent years, the business has slowly developed to the mainland.

The reason why he tried his best to win over Kuang Ji was because of Li Yuanji, and because of Kuang Ji's special status, which would be of great use to his future development in the Mainland.If it were someone else, no matter what, he would not make friends so deliberately.

Kuang Ji was not interested in Lei Wenqi, and then asked for specific information on the [-] auction items.Li Chengtian had been prepared for a long time, took out the picture album used by Lei's publicity, handed it over, and introduced it in detail.

The yacht docked quickly, and after everyone disembarked, an extended car drove over.

There was still some distance between the pier and the auction site, and with the traffic jam on the road, after more than half an hour, everyone finally arrived in front of a star-rated hotel.

This Longteng Hotel is owned by Lei's. Because of the auction, the guests who came today are either rich or expensive. So in front of the hotel, except for the well-dressed welcome staff, almost all the important management of Lei's Group were present .

When Kuang Ji arrived, there was a constant flow of people coming and going at the door. If he didn't know that there was going to be an auction here, he would have thought he was going to a wedding banquet!

The parking lot in front of the hotel is full of luxury cars of all kinds, and there are more cars coming one after another. The doorman and security guard perform their duties, guiding the cars and leading the guests. It is a busy scene.

In the lobby, Lei's Group has a special person to check the invitation letter, and then they will lead them all the way to the auction site that has been arranged upstairs.

Although Li Chengtian has a bad relationship with Lei Shi, but the mall has no permanent enemies, Lei Shi is still very enthusiastic to welcome him, Kuang Ji and others.

The auction site is in the large conference room on the third floor, which has been rearranged to accommodate more than 100 people.When Kuang Ji and Li Chengtian entered, the inside was still a little empty, but after a while, as people came one after another, the atmosphere gradually became lively.

There were several business friends sitting around Li Chengtian, and after a brief introduction to Kuang Ji, he introduced the most famous people in the beginning.

Those people are the main competitors in this auction. Li Chengtian also hoped that Kuang Ji would be prepared for the reason why he pointed it out in advance.

As the vacancies gradually dwindled, the auction was about to open.Seeing that Hou Jiang Yudao hadn't appeared at this time, Kuang Ji couldn't help being puzzled.

"Mr. Li, why hasn't Mr. Jiang come over yet? Isn't he going to participate in this auction?"

Hearing Kuang Ji's question, Li Chengtian replied: "Mr. Jiang called just now, and he was already downstairs, but he met an old friend, so he was delayed."

Just as he was talking, Li Chengtian motioned suddenly, and said, "What a coincidence, Uncle Jiang has just arrived when we mentioned Uncle Jiang."

At the door of the meeting room, Jiang Yudao walked slowly with the support of two young people.Kuang Ji looked up and saw one of the young men, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, then frowned slightly.
