Chapter 468: Not a simple charity auction


Around 1:30 in the afternoon, Ye Tian followed Matthew to the nearby Belmont High School.
In the auditorium of this high school, a charity auction will be held later, and Ye Tian and the others are here.
Originally, Betty wanted to come to the auction, but Logan was dragged to buy a sports car. This kid couldn't wait to have his own sports car and couldn't wait for a moment!
When the Paramount Raiders drove into this famous Boston high school, there was already a lot of people, and the parking lots inside and outside the school were almost full of cars.
These people are not students of Belmont High School, but residents living nearby, and alumni who graduated from this high school, as well as parents whose children have been or are studying in this high school!
Of course, there are some outsiders, but very few!
Both Betty and Logan graduated from this high school, so Matthew will participate in this charity auction and will come every year.
As in other places, as soon as the huge predator appeared here, he immediately attracted the attention of countless people and caught the attention of many people!
Especially for many men, you can see envy in almost everyone's eyes!
While everyone was staring at the Paramount Predator in amazement, they also had a little premonition in their hearts!
How could this New York appear in Boston? How did it appear at Belmont High School? I never heard that he is an alumnus of this high school graduate!
Don't he come here to make trouble, right? That would be a big deal! How can Belmont High School stand the crazy toss of this guy!
Or are there top antique artworks here? That's why this guy showed up. Is he here to hunt for treasure?
How is that possible? This is just a community charity auction. How can top antique artworks appear? Attract such a famous professional treasure hunter to come!
Suddenly, many people felt confused and couldn't understand Ye Tian's purpose.
However, everyone's worries quickly disappeared. Following the Paramount Predator, two police cars also slowly drove into the Belmont High School campus and stopped next to the Predator.
Obviously, these policemen followed Steven’s bastard, and there must be no accident today!
Ye Tian has long been accustomed to the many staring gazes and disturbing discussions, completely turning a blind eye!
But Matthew couldn't do this. He felt uncomfortable all over in the co-pilot of the Predator, and his face was feverish.
You really shouldn't let Steven drive the predators! Too high-profile and too public! No matter where you go, it is the focus of everyone's attention. This feeling is really unbearable for ordinary people!
But it's too late to regret!
The Buick Boulevard has been driven away by Logan, and he can only sit with Ye Tian's predators to participate in this charity auction.
After the car stopped, Matthew did not get out of the car immediately, but began to introduce the auction.
"Steven, this is a community charity auction. It is jointly organized by the church, the community, and Belmont High School, once a year, on the second day of the Thanksgiving holiday.
Participants in this auction are mainly nearby residents, alumni who graduated from this high school, and parents whose children have been or are studying here. Many people know each other and have a good relationship!
Some antique works of art, as well as some household items, which will be auctioned today, are generally not high in value, ranging from tens of dollars to several thousand dollars, and the highest will not exceed 10,000 dollars.
These lots were donated voluntarily and anonymously. The reason for this is to avoid the formation of a comparison style, which would lose the original intention of charity auction.
During the auction process, if you are interested in that lot, you can bid with the placard and compete with others. Most of this competition is just symbolic and no one takes it seriously.
This is a charitable donation in disguise, only borrowed the name of the auction, so that everyone can gain something while donating, and get a little psychological balance. This activity can be held for a long time."
"I understand that this kind of auction is a very good way to make everyone involved feel like a spring breeze. Those who can come up with this idea must have a long-term vision!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, expressing his appreciation.
Matthew smiled and nodded, then continued:
"The money raised from the auction will be divided into three pieces. One-third will go to the church, which will be used for church maintenance, charity activities, etc., and the other third will go to the community and will also be used for public welfare activities.
The last third belongs to Belmont High School, which is used to improve the teaching environment, subsidize students from disadvantaged families, and improve the level of education and teaching. It is also used for public welfare activities.
The reason for saying this is to remind you, don't be too serious later, even if you find good antique works of art, this is not Sotheby's, and this cannot be regarded as a real auction! "
Obviously, Matthew was a little worried about Ye Tian's killing of the Quartet here. If he did that, the scene of today's charity auction would be better!
This kind of worry is not unreasonable. Ye Tian is famous for his brutality and strength in the auction house. None of the people who came here today are his opponents. I have to remind!
"I know, don't worry, I may bid and compete in this auction, but I will not be a rule-breaker and bid wildly with others!
If you really find valuable antique works of art, I will remind you to do it. You will decide what to do then. I will only be a bystander! "
Ye Tian widened Matthew's heart and threw the decision right into Matthew's hands.
"You guys are really! Isn't this a problem for me? But I am also very looking forward to discovering a good antique art or two! Let them become my collection.
Since I moved to Belmont Street, I have been participating in this auction and I have never missed it. It has been more than 20 years and I have donated tens of thousands of dollars. It should have been a reward for me! "
Matthew said excitedly, his eyes full of expectation.
"You will gain something today. As long as there are good antique artworks here, it will definitely not escape my eyes!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, full of confidence.
"Okay! Let's go to the auditorium, the auction will begin soon!"
After speaking, Matthew opened the door and got out of the car.
Ye Tian tidyed up his clothes, concealed the holster under his arm, and then opened the door and got off the car.
Same as when he set off from New York yesterday, Ye Tian still kept his gun.
Under the armpits on both sides are two M9s and several magazines, a German tactical knife is tied to the calf, and an automatic rifle is placed in the predator car, not afraid of any challenges or accidents!
After getting out of the car, Ye Tian first nodded and greeted the policemen who followed, and then joined Matthew and walked towards the Belmont High School Auditorium.
They didn't go far before they stopped.
A fat white man in his fifties walked nearby and greeted Matthew very enthusiastically.
"Matthew, Happy Thanksgiving. Let's meet here again. Maybe we will become competitors this year. Are we ready to lose to me?"
"Happy Thanksgiving, you fat guy! It's nothing good to meet you, even if you let go, I won't lose to you this time!"
Matthew smiled and cursed, and bumped his fist with the fat white man.
Obviously, the relationship between the two is very good, the kind that can be joke at will.
"Hahaha, just wait for your words! The result will be known at the beginning of the auction! It is estimated that like last year, you will once again become my underdog!"
The fat man laughed and said, very proud.
Immediately afterwards, he looked at Ye Tian and asked Matthew:
"Matthew, this is Betty's boyfriend, that crazy New York billionaire? Tell me about it."
"Yes, he is Steven, from China, a very nice young man, indeed a new billionaire, he is not only Betty's boyfriend, but also Betty's fiance!
They are already engaged. I will hold a grand engagement party for them in a few days, and you will be invited! You are welcome to come and take your family with you at that time"
Matthew introduced it triumphantly, full of admiration.
"Ah! They are actually engaged! That's great news, congratulations! My idiot son has completely given up his heart now. I guess he will be heartbroken!"
The fat man said jokingly, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.
Needless to say, the so-called idiot son of this guy must be Betty's loyal suitor! He can only accept the fate of failure. As for whether he is heartbroken or not, it doesn't matter to Ye Tian!
Then, the fat man stretched out his right hand to Ye Tian and introduced himself:
"Steven, nice to meet you, Happy Thanksgiving! My name is Fermi, an old classmate and friend of Matthew, you are a lucky guy, and Betty is a good girl, please cherish her!"
"Mr. Fermi, I am also very happy to meet you. Happy Thanksgiving, please rest assured, I will cherish Betty, because I love her so much!"
Ye Tian shook hands with the other party and said firmly.
"OK! Don't stand here, go to the auditorium, the auction is about to begin!"
Matthew interrupted, then turned and walked towards the auditorium.
Ye Tian and Fermi nodded and smiled at each other, and walked to the auditorium together.
"Matthew, it seems very difficult to beat you today! It's a bit too much for you to find the top professional treasure hunter in the United States as a helper!"
While moving forward, Fermi joked, but there was no frustration in his tone.
"No way, Steven is Betty's fiancé. Of course he helped me. You fat man, even if you let go, you will definitely kill you today! I can also express my depression!"
Matthew said very proudly, smiling very brightly.
On the following road, Matthew and Fermi met several acquaintances and friends one after another. They chatted a few words, and then walked into the auditorium where the auction was held together.
This is an auditorium that can accommodate more than 500 people. It has a large area and almost everyone has arrived. It is very noisy and full of discussions and laughter.
After entering the door and standing still, Ye Tian immediately started observing the situation in the auditorium.
When his gaze swept over half of it, he suddenly saw a familiar face.
"Why did Leo come here? Didn't he live in Miami, how could he show up in Boston?"
Ye Tian whispered in surprise, a little puzzled.
The Leo he mentioned is a rich Hispanic and a very famous collector ~EbookFREE.me~ lives in Miami and has dealt with during the New York autumn auction before!
This person came to the United States after getting rich and has always lived in Miami. Naturally, it is impossible to have a relationship with Belmont High School, so Ye Tiancai was puzzled!
But Leo was not the only acquaintance at the scene, and Ye Tian soon found a familiar face again!
It is an old friend Cook, the owner of Los Angeles Golden Eagle Exploration Company, and a notorious professional treasure hunter.
At this moment, this guy is staring at Leo, his eyes are extremely bright, revealing endless greed.
There are two bodyguards standing beside him, and you can see from the generous clothes that these two bodyguards are fully armed! It is possible to bring someone like MP5!
Neither Leo nor Cook is a fuel-efficient lamp! Not a good person! They actually appeared at such a community auction at the same time! It's really puzzling!
It seems that today's charity auction is not easy! Have a good show!
Ye Tian couldn't help but chuckle.
