Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

The next morning, Liang En got up early as usual, but while he was eating, he saw Pierce walking over with an excited face and a piece of letter paper in his hand.

"Absolutely good news." After taking a plate of food and placing it in front of him, Pierce said to Liang En excitedly. "Thanks to you, we got the admission notice for the anonymous auction this time. Maybe we can find something good."

During the following breakfast time, Pierce quickly told Liang En about the anonymous auction. As he had imagined before, this auction was mainly a place for wealthy people to auction their belongings.

But for this society, a wealthy person auctioning his own items is obviously a very bad sign, which often leads to a series of very bad consequences.

Therefore, this kind of anonymous auction came into being. Both buyers and sellers can choose whether to be anonymous after entering the auction, so that everyone's privacy can be preserved.

Of course, in order to avoid those penetrating reporters, this kind of auction is also very strict in censoring the participants. The reason why Pierce was able to get the invitation was purely because Liang En's reputation was high enough and he was automatically able to get the invitation.

The prices of things at this kind of auction are not low, so the biggest significance of this auction, apart from the occasional leaks, is that the core value is to be able to buy some things that are usually rare.

Because he now has money, Liang En is naturally very interested in this kind of auction, hoping to buy some cultural relics that are usually rare.

So after finishing breakfast, Liang En and the others immediately went straight to an internal conference room in the basement of the hotel to prepare for the auction that would be held around 9 a.m.

"We clearly have an invitation, why can't we enter?" Just when they arrived at the door of the conference room downstairs, Liang En suddenly heard a voice that was somewhat familiar to him. "

"I'm very sorry, sir, but your invitation is for the auction upstairs itself, not for our anonymous auction."

"But it would be a pity if we came all the way from Ireland and couldn't see this small auction." Another female voice that Liang En was not familiar with said.

"Is there any way for us to go in and take a look?" "Well - from your invitation, I can tell that you have no problem with funds now, but I think you should need at least one reliable person's introduction. Can."

"Can I introduce you to my friends?" At this time, Liang En had already recognized that the man was Officer Burke whom he knew, so he took a step forward and said.

Although he didn't know why Officer Burke was now dressed as a rich man and what this companion was doing here, the previous cooperation experience between the two parties made Liang En willing to help him at this time.

At this time, Officer Burke also recognized Liang En, and at the same time raised his hand slightly, so that Liang En could see the name at the beginning of his invitation.

"You know, my friend William came here specially to participate in this auction. So if possible, I hope you can still allow him and his companions to participate in this auction."

"Mr. Liang, of course you have the right to invite your friends to participate in this auction." After seeing clearly that it was Liang En, the staff member immediately bowed slightly to him and stepped aside. "You are now our most distinguished guest here."

So Liang En and the others successfully passed the check at the auction door and walked in, then found a place to sit down. Only then did Liang En have time to ask Officer Burke what was going on.

"It's okay, Mr. Liang is reliable enough." After hearing what Liang En said, Officer Burke patted the arm of the female companion next to him to tell her not to be nervous, and then used his mobile phone to tell Liang En what he was going to do this time. do what.

This matter is actually related to Liang En, because a series of things he did before led to the rapid decline of the Golden Society, so now the Golden Society has to sell some of their things to recycle funds in an attempt to make a comeback.

The reason why Officer Burke and his colleagues appeared here this time was because they learned from a tip that the Gold Club was likely to use this auction to ship goods, so they hoped to find what the other party was selling here and then follow the clues to catch the other party.

After all, the internal organizational structure of a criminal organization like the Golden Society cannot be particularly complicated. The flow of funds in such an emergency will most likely be solved by the other party's senior leaders personally.

Therefore, if it is really confirmed that the other party is shipping goods this time, there is a high probability that Officer Burke and the police behind him can follow this clue to completely solve the golden meeting.

Although this auction is very famous and claims to keep the identity of the shipper confidential, it will be very easy for the police to figure out the identity of this criminal organization.

"This is the list of antiques we have determined. If you are willing, you can help us find out whether the items for sale are imitations or genuine ones." Officer Burke said and handed his mobile phone to Liang En.

Liang En quickly browsed and found that these things were not just products of Europe, but could be said to be from all over the world. They seemed to be more complete than those in many museums.

Just after Liang En read the list hastily, the auction began. Compared to the exhibition upstairs, almost all the items auctioned here are treasures.

Considering that many items are brought by wealthy people who are eager to withdraw their funds, the quality of these auction items is naturally not much lower.

But the corresponding thing is that the prices of these things are definitely not cheap. At least Pierce feels that from his own point of view, these things have no purchase value.

Because the final auction price of these items was not much different from the market price, so for him, this place was not a good place to purchase goods.

But Liang En seemed very energetic. On the one hand, this is because he now needs to help Officer Burke keep an eye on the situation on the field to ensure that nothing is missed, and on the other hand, he needs to find what he needs.

But it’s unclear whether those selling things today are nouveau riche or shell aristocrats, so the auction mainly sells oil paintings from the 16th century onwards, gorgeous sculptures and furniture, and even various gold and silverware.

These things indeed look gorgeous and quite in line with normal people's aesthetics, but in fact they are very ordinary from a historical perspective and do not reflect much of the original owner's heritage.

However, this does not mean that Liang En will not take action. At least when the above-mentioned auction of a very complete 18k gold inlaid with pearl enamel Patek Philippe painted pocket watch produced in 1890, he spent 14,000 euros to buy the watch.

This is actually an investment behavior. After all, the price of antique watches has been rising every year in the past few years. However, most of the people present would not be interested in watches at this price if they really wanted to invest. Liang En had picked up a card. Cheap.

Of course, Liang En's move can be considered to be integrated into the overall environment of the auction. Everyone on the field now thinks that he is here purely out of curiosity to see if there is anything interesting.

And this also made it reasonable for him to look at everything carefully. No one doubted that Liang En was still silently collecting information.
