Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 150 Go to
After the young man who delivered the invitation left, Liang En immediately went to the gym to discuss with Fan Meng about participating in the auction.

After all, in the earliest plan, Fan Meng came to Toronto just to take the opportunity to take a rest. After Liang En finished his business, he would return to England with him, and he would not participate in the auction.

But now that there is an extra quota, Liang En will naturally invite Fan Meng to participate in this auction with him.After all, they are a team, and the activities that can be participated in collectively are naturally the best.

And Fan Meng naturally did not refuse this invitation, especially for ordinary people, there are basically few opportunities to board the yachts of the top rich people and participate in the auctions of these people, so naturally they will not let go of such an opportunity.

"I think it's normal for the other party to do this." When Liang En said that he didn't know why the auction organizer sent him an invitation letter, Fan Meng immediately replied.

"Don't forget, you can now be called the No.1 of the younger generation in Egyptology. So there is a high probability that this rich man will find you on the list and send you another invitation."

"So it's like this!" Liang En patted his forehead lightly and muttered.

To be honest, the speed at which he completed those academic researches with the golden finger was so fast that he didn't even have time to get used to the change in his identity.

From this point, we can also see the correctness of Liang En's choice of the scholar's path after he obtained the golden finger. After all, if he just became an antique dealer, he might get more money than he is now, but his social status is likely to be far inferior.

Soon, the time came to the appointed day.After breakfast, Liang En and Fan Meng each put on a very formal suit, and then took the hotel's vehicle straight to the pier.

Soon, they appeared on that passenger terminal.When the car stopped at the edge of the red carpet, Liang En and Fan Meng got out of the car, and saw the luxury yacht at the end of the red carpet. "

It can only be said that rich people really know how to play with this kind of boat. Looking at the white yacht in front of him gleaming in the sun, Liang En muttered subconsciously.

Because he found that the boat was obviously a real luxury yacht, and it is estimated that it may cost thousands or even tens of thousands of euros to repair the paint on the hull surface.

According to the information Liang En checked before, this yacht is a super adventure yacht with a length of nearly 70m and a displacement of 2275 tons.The maximum speed is 12.5 knots, and it can travel 11 nautical miles when cruising at 6000 knots.

The entire yacht is also highly automated, only 17 crew members are needed to drive away, and at the same time, it can also meet the various requirements of 12 guests on board for long-term actions with the ship.

The most exaggerated thing is that this ship not only has a complete ice breaking function, but also has an Airbus ec145 helicopter, a small submarine that can accommodate three passengers, four snowmobiles and four four-wheel off-road vehicles. car.

Of course, the price of this boat is also very expensive.Not to mention the nearly 8000 million euro purchase cost of the ship.The maintenance fee of about 50 euros for a week at sea alone is not affordable for ordinary people or even ordinary rich people.

But after boarding the yacht, Liang En felt that it was reasonable for the boat to be so expensive, at least the decoration on it could fully see the noble taste of the yacht owner.

"Welcome to my auction, Mr. Liang." Just as Liang En and Fan Meng arrived at the entrance of the living room under the guidance of the crew, a gray-haired but hale and hearty old man greeted Liang En and expressed his welcome.

This old man is the wealthy Swedish businessman surnamed Skold. His face and hands look a little rough, obviously the traces of the expedition, but he looks very energetic, with his back straight.

"It's a great honor to receive your invitation." Liang En shook hands with the old man. Although this old man is really addicted to food, it is true love at such an age that he is willing to stay in the wild all day. .

To be honest, Liang En felt that besides being interested in history, the reason why he loves this industry now is also a large part of the reason for Goldfinger.

If you are the same age as this big man, with a net worth of tens or even tens of billions, but you have been on the road to exploration, it is probably difficult to persist in doing this thing year after year like this old man.

"I have prepared rooms for you all. If you want anything, you can directly ask the staff on the ship. The auction will be held at 5 pm. Before that, you can take a good rest on the ship."

Mr. Scudder personally took them to a guest room, and then said to them, "The auction items that are going to be auctioned today are all in the living room on the first floor. You can also go and have a look in advance."

"Thank you, sir." Liang En nodded, and then walked into their guest room with Fan Meng. Obviously the other party was investigating their situation, so they arranged a cabin with two single beds.

Liang En and the others were not the first to arrive, so when they simply tidied up their appearance and went downstairs to the hall to look at today's auction items, they found that there were already three or four people in the hall.

There is a long line of glass cabinets of different sizes placed against the wall and around the hall, and each glass cabinet contains an item that will be auctioned at the evening auction.

"Sure enough, the quality of things here is even comparable to that of some museum collections." After looking at the things inside in front of a few unmanned glass cabinets, Liang En sighed with emotion in a low voice.

For example, right now in this glass case in front of him is a beautiful necklace, a necklace made of gold, enamel and opal, with an asymmetrical vine shape.

This necklace uses gold as the main body, uses enamel to make the transition from yellow to green leaves, and uses small grains of black opal with flame luster to make grapes, which can be said to restore the true form of nature.

From the nameplate under the glass cabinet, Liang En learned that this necklace was designed and made by Louis Confolk Tiffany, the son of Charles Tiffany, a famous American artist and the founder of Tiffany Jewelry Company.

There is no doubt that this is a representative work of American Art Nouveau jewelry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and it is an art masterpiece that is enough to be placed in a museum.

Of course, in terms of price, this thing will definitely not be cheap. The top-notch art design and the addition of masters make this thing cost at least a million dollars, and it is definitely not something that Liang En can buy now.

However, it is impossible for the auction to be full of good things of this level. For example, Liang En saw a lot of things in glass cabinets with prices ranging from tens of thousands or $10,000+, which should be auctioned at the opening. .

"These sketches look quite beautiful." Just when Liang En and the others walked to a glass cabinet, Fan Meng said in a low voice.Spread out in a glass case is a sketchbook with lifelike images of people drawn on it.

"It's a pity that we don't know who actually drew these." Looking at those exquisite sketch portraits, Liang En showed a regretful expression, because there was no signature on this sketch book, which greatly reduced the volume of this book. booklet value.
