Golden Fishery

"This is a work of art provided by Mr. Liu Chengzong, a Chinese painter. It is called "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival". It is a reproduction of life in the Song Dynasty in China. It is called the Encyclopedia of the Song Dynasty. The starting price is 4,500 Canadian dollars..." Bai Glove said in a passionate voice.

After his voice fell, Qin Shiou raised the brochure in his hand, "4600 Canadian dollars."

Hamley thought for a while, and said, "The Song Dynasty is a very long dynasty, isn't it? Is this painting a fake?"

Qin Shiou laughed and said, "Of course it's a fake. The real picture of this painting is already incomplete. If it's the real one, how could it be more than 4,500 Canadian dollars, 45 million Canadian dollars! It's our national treasure!"

He wanted to take down this painting. The villa lacked decorations, only some hideous fossils. The Qingming Riverside Picture was big and beautiful, and it would be a good decoration to hang up.

Moreover, this painting was obviously copied by this compatriot named Liu Chengzong. Although it is a fake, it is not the kind of thing crudely produced by a factory, and it still has a certain artistic value.

Most of the people present are from well-to-do families, and they are here to show their love, and to see if they can come across something they like.

Chinese antiques and works of art have always been the pointers in the collection circle. There is no doubt that many people are very interested in this super long scroll.

As a result, arms were raised one after another, and the price rose all the way, from 4,500 yuan to 8,000 yuan, creating the current price record.

Qin Shiou insisted on raising his hand all the time, expressing his determination to win the painting. When the price reached 8,000 yuan, not many people were still competing with him, and most of them shook their heads and gave up the painting.

Finally, the price rose to 9200 yuan. Qin Shiou directly added 10,000 yuan, and the remaining competitor shrugged and gave up bidding, and nodded to him from the air, congratulating him on winning the painting.

The white glove hit the table with a mallet in his hand, OK. 10,000 yuan deal.

People on the left and right shook hands with Qin Shiou. This time it was not to celebrate him, but to thank him for his contribution to charity.

After the auction of "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival" ended, the auction was suspended and everyone rested.

Hamley patted Qin Shiou on the shoulder to signal him to come with him, and found a small prayer room. Only two people sat in, and then the mayor asked straight to the point: "Do you still remember the promise I made to you before the mayor election?"

Of course Qin Shiou remembered, he said with a smile, "Make Farewell Island my private island?"

Hamley corrects: "Not to be,

Rather similar. "

Qin Shiou shrugged to show that he understood, and said, "Of course I remember. Then what can you do? Sell me the right to use it?"

Hamley smiled and said, "You've lived on the island long enough, and you should know enough about the island, right?"

"In fact, Farewell Island is a small world independent of the land. The residents only care about their own lives, and they don't care about the politics, military, and economy of the country, even the provinces and cities."

"I'm the mayor, and I feel more clearly about all of this. When I was on the island, it felt like the island belonged to me, so I worked so hard to develop and build her."

"If you want to own this small island. Qin, let me give you a suggestion. You first become the mayor of the small town, and then slowly invest in all the businesses on the small island. As far as I know, you are already doing this, right? In this way, when the political power and economy of the island belong to you in the end, wouldn’t that mean that the island is all yours?”

"Do you want to be mayor? It requires popular election. And I have the right to nominate. Believe that if I nominate you for mayor, you will be mayor!"

Hamley finished speaking. Qin Shiou concentrated his mind, he looked at Hamley suspiciously and said, "Are you serious?"

"Of course. I am fulfilling my promise to my biggest financial supporter, and I must say something seriously!"

Qin Shiou rubbed his hands, looked directly at Hamley and said, "Why do I have a feeling that we are working together to seek power and usurp the government?"

"Did you watch Mission: Impossible, House of Cards, White House Has Fallen last night? Hell, Chin, we're planning to develop Farewell, talk about power grabs !” Hamlei showed a desperate look.

In fact, Hamley's idea really moved Qin Shiou!

He has no interest in the position of mayor of Farewell Town, but if he can control the political power of this town and infiltrate the economy, Farewell Island can really become his private garden in the end.

Of course, people in the town should live their lives, and they can make better money, because Qin Shiou's economic penetration is not a simple acquisition and exclusion, but a joint venture!

Just like he and Hughes Jr. joined forces to run a grocery store, and he and Sagro joined forces to run a gun store. Most people in the small town have little money, so he can inject capital into a partnership to expand the business.

After a quick thought, Qin Shiou said, "I'm interested, William, but am I eligible to run for mayor of the town?"

Hamley raised his index finger and said, "As long as one year, the political environment in Newfoundland is the most relaxed. As long as one year of immigration is complete, you can run for mayor of the town."

"Then let's talk in detail after the auction." Qin Shiou said expectantly.

The temptation of power is great. Qin Shiou is not obsessed with power, but he has a strong sense of small farmers, which is related to his family. The children of Chinese farmers all hope to have a piece of land that they can be the masters of.

In the final analysis, it is Qin Shiou who has no sense of security. He is worried that he will bid farewell to a mayor who does not deal with him in the future. It will be troublesome. He has invested too many resources in the fishery, and he must guarantee the complete ownership of the fishery.

The 15-minute break passed quickly, and Qin Shiou returned to the church. After the auction, he still struggled to raise placards, gave a good price, and got a bunch of things that he probably didn't need.

The last auction item was called "Mysterious Seven Days". White Gloves took out seven exquisite black pearls brought by Qin Shiou, first boasted with various compliments, and then introduced the donor, Qin Shiou.

The seven black pearls were photographed from various angles, and now they are displayed on the background curtain of the church. In the clear photos, the black pearls appear more pure and dark, with a faint luster. When they appear in the church at this time, there is indeed a trace of Mysterious taste.

Qin Shiou stood up to pay tribute, and there was thunderous applause at the scene, and he said with white gloves: "This great fisherman held up half of the auction by himself. God bless him, God bless him! Every good person will regard him as an honor." example!"

After enough foreplay, the final auction began. The value of the seven black pearls was the largest among the auction items, and the price was also the highest. The starting price was 100,000 Canadian dollars! The price increase is no longer one hundred and two hundred, but one thousand! (to be continued)
