Manuscripts created by Beethoven, abandoned drafts of Da Vinci, portraits of various celebrities, including private collections from the royal family.
In order to express support for the war and the expenses required to maintain the war, the royal family released a large amount of collectibles.
Bai Xue sat alone under the stage. When the auction item appeared, her expression became very tangled.
As the bidding approached to the end, when the auctioneer was about to hammer the hammer to confirm the deal, she raised the bid and bought the lot with a pitiful expression.
Once or twice, everyone understood, but when she chose to bid at the last moment every time, and did not give anyone a chance, the people who participated in the auction were inevitably dissatisfied.
"Wait, why does she start bidding every time at the end, is this Sotheby's new rule?" Once again, the "poor woman" snatched the fancy lot and someone stood up angrily.
"Have you verified her assets? Up to now, she has bought nearly 500,000 lots, and we have never seen her."
Some people choose to question her identity and property. Seeing the other party hesitating, it doesn't look like a rich man at all.
"Everyone, the other party is only a representative of the buyer. As for the real buyer, it is an important VIP of Sotheby's. Its identity is not convenient to reveal, and there is no problem with its qualifications!"
The auction was suspended, and the auctioneer explained to everyone and said in a very formal tone; "The other party's lot will be guaranteed by Sotheby's. The auction will continue below."
The auctioneer said this because he knew very well that the presence of everyone on the scene was not as important as the man behind the poor woman.
Mentioning the name Charlie Lee is really famous in Sotheby's.
It’s not just that every time he buys a collection, it’s enough for Sotheby’s total auction revenue to be held throughout the year.
Sotheby's usually has a good collection, as long as there is a phone call, the other party will immediately place an order and send it to the other side of the ocean.
So far, the price difference and freight earned from this alone account for more than 10% of Sotheby's revenue.
Excuse me, does anyone dare to offend such a big gold master?
Besides, the other party’s holding of the card did not violate the rules, but it was stuck in the last second every time... Although this approach inevitably makes people feel that it was deliberately targeted, but who made the man behind the other party too powerful!
The auction went on as usual, and Bai Xue's single-play was basically behind. She didn't know what the boss's preferences were, and she didn't dare to ask.
So I can only rely on the introduction of the auctioneer to understand, as Li Zitao's identity and consumption in Sotheby's, I believe that the other party does not dare to deceive himself.
It's easy to deceive her, but when things are delivered to Li Zitao, with the man's character, Sotheby's is probably going to suffer bad luck.
Bai Xue sat at the auction site, and in the helpless but enviable eyes of everyone, it perfectly showed what is called "buy, buy, buy..."
In the office of the general manager, Sotheby's London chief, and charming Bello Fiore is personally on the battlefield to make Daikini satisfied with his services.
Two hours after the auction ended, the locked office door was opened, and a heat wave rushed with the smell of seafood, and Li Zitao looked refreshed.
"Have you bought everything?" Coming to the VIP room, Bai Xue was accompanied by the treasurer to compensate for the fine wine and appreciate the various collections she had bought.
"Boss." Hearing Li Zitao's voice, Shirayuki stood up holding the glass.
"Relax, we are here on vacation!" Li Zitao raised his hand, motioned to relax and sit down.
Li Zitao's trip to London this time was a secret trip. No one knows his whereabouts except Bai Xue, the personal secretary in the secretary's office and the people in Sotheby's.
That's wrong...and your beloved King, Li Zitao is planning to visit him this time, and take a look at his lovely baby daughter, Elizabeth.
"Is there a gift suitable for the little girl?" Thinking of "Elizabeth," Li Zitao decided to choose a suitable gift for her from the collection he bought this time.
This girl is not simple. It will rule the United Kingdom for more than half a century in the future. It is the queen who has been in power for the longest time, the most beloved and welcome, and is kindly called by netizens as ‘long standby. ’
At this time, Li Zitao was already considering the matter of marriage. If his relationship with George VI was too stiff, he would like to settle this matter now.
Aiden...Mason...
It’s more appropriate to think about it, or Mason. Aiden’s character is too jumpy, and it’s nice to call it unruly. In the popular way, it’s ‘love to love love waves! ’
"Poof!" Li Zitao couldn't help laughing.
Baganzi hasn't left aside, he has already considered the issue of selection, how is there a little bit of feudal parents' signs.
"Free love... well, you have to think about it." Zuo Siyou thought, Li Zitao felt that they really couldn't let them choose ~EbookFREE.me~ decided his head, when he wanted to make his own decision, he waited to do it If you are a man, you seem to assume the role involuntarily.
Think about the two little guys who are almost 8 years old. Judging by Westerners, they will start to fall in love in about four or five years, and it is not too early to think about it.
"Boss, how about this?" Bai Xue found a set of sterling silver tea sets from many collections. Its previous owner was Queen Victoria.
Give the queen's things to the next queen, this gift can not be more suitable.
"Very good, wrap it up nicely and use colored paper filled with various cute fillers, stars, origami and the like."
Either don’t do it, do it best, and let the other party always remember who this gift comes from.
It may seem that Li Zitao has a slightly more utilitarian heart, but to the point where he is today, where he is, this is what he should have.
In 20 minutes, the gift was wrapped perfectly and looked both formal and cute.
"The car has been arranged, Lord Li." Sotheby's found him a very popular black car.
Putting on a bowler hat and heading down quickly, Li Zitao and Bai Xue drove in the direction of Windsor Manor.
Just before leaving the city, the piercing air defense alarm sounded, the driver's expression became tense, his hands grasped the steering wheel, his body leaned back and stepped on the throttle.
Boom, buzz...
The bomb landed on the house on the left. Li Zitao saw that half of the house was exploded from the inside, and the stones flew like bullets, and then his ears only roared.
"Ah~~" When Li Zitao regained his hearing, he heard Bai Xue screaming.
At this time she was covering her ears with both hands, her body curled up with a fearful instinctive scream.
