"Okay," stared at by his father, Mickey reluctantly walked to the VIP table, but Antonov, who noticed him, shook his head and stopped him before he could speak.
Back to Lawrence, Mitch shrugged, shook his head and said helplessly, "I'll just say no, he doesn't care about us at all."
"Isn't this normal?" Lawrence was not angry, but encouraged with a smile, "If you want to make money, you have to endure ignorance and ridicule, remember my child, we are businessmen, we were ignored today, and we want to pay back,
Just try to find a treasure that William Devonhill can't refuse, and sell it to him at a price that is several layers higher than the market price, or even double the high price. Force and violence are what barbarians do."
Lawrence, who had been staring at William, had just finished speaking when he saw William snap his fingers suddenly, and a shock came from his feet.
"What's the matter with you, Father?" Seeing Lawrence swaying and slumped on the chair, Mickey asked with concern, and then rubbed his eyes like dazzled.
Sitting on the chair for a few seconds, after Lawrence felt that there was no problem, he said to Mickey who cared about himself, "I'm fine, I'm fine, I just suddenly felt an electric shock, hell, how could I get an electric shock?"
Mickey was relieved when he saw that Lawrence was fine, and he hesitated for a moment before replying, "Father, it may be the reason why you satirized Mr. Devonhill as a barbarian. I just saw a ball rolling towards the VIP table."
"Damn, I'm such an idiot." Lawrence looked in William's direction annoyed. He didn't expect William to be so insidious. He asked his subordinates to take away a robot in front of him and Mickey, but secretly kept the other robots by his side. If I didn't pay attention to talking nonsense, I would be shocked, and I didn't dare to speak at all for a while.
Listening to Sunday's report in his ears, William turned his head to look at Lawrence and his son, and saw that the two father and son looked at him with a bowed smile.
With such excellent father and son, William couldn't help but smiled and nodded at them, turned around and said with a big smile to Boss Shen Cheng who was sitting on his left side, "Who are you representing to participate in the auction?"
Shen Cheng glanced at the people around him, saw his companion nodded very slightly, and then said to William, "The Baoli Museum is for the copper heads of cows, monkeys, and tigers that will be auctioned today." He stopped talking, hesitated for a few seconds, and said , "William, give me face and don't participate in these three antiques."
"Huh? Isn't it a rat, a cow, or a tiger?" William asked suspiciously, "Forget it, who cares, it's just a few faucets anyway, the first time you Boss Shen speaks, of course I will give you face, but" , William smiled and glanced at the few people around him who were listening to him.
"But what?" Shen Cheng was puzzled, and then thought of something and quickly said, "God, don't be a moth, this time many people hope that the bull, monkey, and tiger will go back. We can't live up to everyone's expectations."
"Haha, it's really not certain," William squinted and explained, "Old Shen, if I hadn't come today, there might not be many people who would raise the price when the price reached a certain height, but look, how many people are watching at the scene?" Follow me".
Hearing what William said, Shen Cheng and the others turned their heads to look at the venue, and found that most people were indeed staring at them intentionally or unintentionally. Shen Cheng, who had been dealing with external affairs, immediately regretted, "Mistake, what a mistake! ".
He turned his head and said to the people around him, "We shouldn't be sitting next to William. Anyone who has a relationship with him knows that he is a fanatic lover of Chinese antiques. As soon as he appeared in this auction today,
People who should or shouldn’t know about the $14 billion worth of antiques in the Bank of England may have received the news. Today, the prices of all shareholders will not be low, and these capitalists will not let go of this opportunity.”
After listening to the companion, he understood after a little thought, and nodded annoyedly, "You mean those treasure masters might find someone to act as a drag? Now even if William doesn't bid, people who want to fish in troubled waters see us sitting next to him Think we're William's slaves?"
"It's not impossible. Everyone knows that William has just made nearly 140 billion US dollars, and the cash in his hand is no less than [-] billion US dollars. He has never appeared on this occasion before. How can it be possible not to kill him?"
"Hey, that's really a miscalculation." The companion nodded regretfully, and thought for a few seconds, "Is it possible for William to help us...".
Before he finished speaking, Shen Cheng stopped him, "It's impossible. It's in his hands. We want to take it back unless we exchange it with something he likes. Let's have a look first. The price is really beyond our budget."
"Well, this is the only way to do it now. Hey, if I can't complete the task assigned by the group, I will definitely be scolded by our chairman when I go back this time." .
"Don't worry, things haven't started yet, we still have a chance."
Chapter 438. Chapter 430 Eight
"Dang, Dang, Dang," came the sound of three gavels hitting the table, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am Tang Ning, the auctioneer for this special auction of Chinese antiques. First of all, I would like to thank our Highness Wilson Come, please stand up and welcome, thank you."
Hearing the auctioneer's words, William couldn't help but rolled his eyes, feeling reluctant in his heart, but immediately said to Shen Cheng and the other Tianchao guests in action, "Please stand up out of courtesy, friends, thank you".
After speaking, he took the lead and stood up and watched Wilson applaud. With his friendly relationship with the Wilson family, William would not slap the royal family in the face at this time.
Except for the English people who would spontaneously stand up and applaud, everyone in the audience froze for a moment, and when they saw William taking the lead to stand up, they also stood up and applauded.
Wilson was stunned for a moment. Seeing William standing up and looking at him applauding, he reacted with a smile on his face and stood up and nodded to the surroundings. He kept saying, "Thank you, thank you", not daring to be polite. out of reach.
After being polite, many people stared at today's auctioneer. If it weren't for him, everyone would stand up politely and pay attention to a young man who had just turned 18. Not only did Wilson not feel him, but he would blame him. He is busy.
"God, this is what annoys me the most," William complained to Shen Cheng after sitting down, "Today's auctioneer must be from England, and he is a supporter of the royal family, otherwise Wilson wouldn't be able to enjoy this kind of courtesy." .
After speaking, William turned his head and teased Wilson, who was still excited, "Right, Wilson, this is probably the first time you have received everyone's welcome alone at a non-holiday time."
"Haha, thank you, thank you very much," Wilson showed his sincere thanks, and then complained with a smile, "Dude, can't you stop ruining my dream so quickly?"
"Sorry, my fault," William said in a serious and eccentric tone, "His Excellency, the Duke of Cambridge."
As soon as he heard William's tone, he knew that he was upset, and Wilson responded with a smile, "God, be serious, Your Excellency the Earl of Oxford, it is a public event, and you and I are in the same group."
"Haha", everyone laughed cooperatively to ease the embarrassment just now.
After the jokes are over, the auction officially begins. The first item to be auctioned is an official kiln blue and white jar with Yunlongshou pattern from the Jiajing Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty.
After the bidding started, many people would look at William. Professor Guan, who came with Shen Cheng, saw that William was completely uninterested, and asked with a smile, "Mr. Devonhill, this official kiln can be dated at a glance. Are you not interested in anything?"
"Professor Guan, don't be so polite, just call me William."
Professor Guan nodded, and William nodded with a smile in response, "There are too many porcelains from the Jiajing Dynasty. I have more than ten pieces that are several grades higher than the ones auctioned now. There are too many repetitive things. It really makes me mention them." Not interested".
Well, this made everyone choke immediately, and couldn't help complaining in their hearts, you local tyrant, you have a reason.
A dozen pieces of porcelain, calligraphy and paintings were photographed in a few ten minutes, but William did not raise his cards once, which disappointed the treasure owners who had expected William, a super local tyrant, to join.
After taking a few more antiques, the staff of the auction house put them on a tray and saw William, the white suet jade, became interested.
This piece of jade is the top suet jade mined in 10 years. The treasurer spent several years looking for the top master to carve it. After the production was completed, he kept it in his collection and did not try it himself. No one has tried it. Of course William is interested. .
The whole piece of jade is the size of a goose egg, perfectly round and without any flaws. Only eight horses are lightly carved on the jade, which is very suitable for holding and playing with.
So as soon as the auctioneer finished talking about the starting price of 20 pounds, William raised his placard.
Those who were interested in this piece of jade saw that William raised the price without even thinking about it, and they couldn't help but feel worried. When the price reached 50 pounds, no one would bid again when it exceeded the market price of this piece of jade by 6 floors.
"Is there anyone else to bid?" The auctioneer asked twice, seeing that no one at the scene really wanted to bid, and said a third time, and immediately knocked down the gavel in his hand, "Congratulations, Mr. Devinhill, for bidding this piece Eight Horses and Suet Jade".
Seeing that the item had already been photographed, Shen Cheng asked William in a low voice, "Do you buy things regardless of the price?"
