Super Pirate Ship

Text Chapter 276 Bill

According to the auctioneer's introduction, this is the coronation crown of William I of the British Normandy Dynasty 1,000 years ago. However, due to damage, the value has dropped somewhat, and it is not as valuable as the crowns of several other kings in British history. ≥,

William I was the king of England and one of the most important kings in the Middle Ages.

William I led the greatest chapter in the famous Norman Conquest: the conquest of the Kingdom of England. His life was deeply controversial, but his actions undoubtedly influenced the entire history of Europe and led to the birth of a new era.

William was not a native Englishman, but he was the most important of all British monarchs, and every British monarch since is a descendant of him. Although we cannot attribute all of Britain's subsequent development to William I, William's government was the indirect cause of Britain's subsequent development. Therefore, from a British perspective, this William I is no different from China’s Qin Shihuang!

Of course, all this was told to him by Jester, the honorary professor of the Cambridge History Department, and Jiang Tian was very curious about his so-called honorary professor of the Cambridge History Department. Although this guy knew a lot, he didn't look like the same person. A knowledgeable professor.

Jiang Tian was not interested in British history. What interested him was that the gem on the crown turned out to be a rough stone, and judging from the auctioneer's introduction, they did not know the true function of this gem.

Jester said proudly: "In the Western world, money is paramount. I bought this honorary professor title with 1 million US dollars. It is also my stepping stone to the British upper class. In the UK, I don't have one or two on my head." Title. Those nobles won’t look down on you at all!”

Jiang Tian smiled and shook his head. I really thought that Jester had become an honorary professor at Cambridge, but it turned out that he had paid for it.

Bora said: "Sir, if you want to live comfortably in European society in the future, you'd better get a title. It's hard to get a title of nobility, because you don't have the nationality of a European country after all, but becoming an honorary professor at the world's top university is relatively simple. !”

Jiang Tian waved his hand: "Let's talk about this later!"

He doesn't have much yearning for the so-called European society. China is pretty good. Moreover, with my current financial strength, I am still a little behind in doing business with foreigners.

Thinking of his assets, Jiang Tian heard the auctioneer say: "The starting price for this crown is 1 million US dollars!"

"1.2 million!"

"1.48 million!"

"1.7 million!"

Immediately there were some people bidding, but the bids were not high. The highest bid was a European man, who bid 2 million US dollars, which was already the highest bid. The auctioneer called three times but no one bid, and the hammer was about to fall. At that moment, Jiang Tian shouted: "2.5 million!"

Suddenly it was $500,000 higher. It's not that Jiang Tian is rich, but that he intends to win it in one fell swoop. To defeat the opponent's psychological price, if Jiang Tian shouted out more than 2 million, it is conceivable that the European man would definitely follow the price.

"This gentleman bids 2.5 million U.S. dollars. Is there any other gentleman who bids a higher price for William I's crown?" the auctioneer shouted.

The European man shook his head slightly, obviously feeling that the value of the crown was not worth the more than 2.5 million US dollars he had to spend to bid for it. And judging from Jiang Tian's posture, he was afraid that the final price would be astronomical and not worth it.

The corner of Jiang Tian's mouth curled up slightly. What he wanted was this effect, an imperative attitude. Then many people would stop, unless some troublemakers would deliberately drive up the price, but they could come to participate in this kind of auction. Everyone has a certain level of strength, and no one wants to offend one of the forces because of a dispute of will.

However, life is unsatisfactory ten times. Just when the auctioneer dropped the hammer, a voice suddenly sounded: "3 million, I will pay 3 million US dollars for this crown!"

"This gentleman bids 3 million!" The auctioneer became excited. What happened today? There are always people deliberately raising the price, but obviously he likes this kind of raising, because the higher the price, the less money he can get. more.

Jiang Tian looked over and frowned, seeing that it was his old enemy.

Jester gritted his teeth as he watched: "Sir, it's Bill, from the Lewis family in the United States. I didn't expect that this guy was taken away by the army and came out without anything happening!"

Jiang Tian nodded and calmly shouted: "4 million!"

"Five million!" Bill shouted again, and cast a provocative look at Jiang Tian, ​​and Jester responded with his middle finger.

"6 million!" Jiang Tian still looked calm.

"7 million!"

"Eight million!" Jiang Tian continued to shout, and many people listening were frightened.

"9 million!" Bill gritted his teeth and said. He didn't expect Jiang Tian to be able to resist for so long, but he was already muttering silently in his heart that he would not follow next time. The price was raised from 2.5 million to 10 million, giving him an extra 7.5 million. I felt relieved in my heart.

Then the next moment, there was no bid from Jiang Tian, ​​only the sound of the hammer falling from the auctioneer: "Congratulations to this gentleman for winning the crown of William I, congratulations!"

Then Bill got confused and took a picture of the useless crown, and it was still worth 9 million US dollars?

Oh my god, the boss will kill himself if he knows!

At this moment, Bill looked at Jiang Tian with eyes full of hatred and murderous intent, and what he received was Jiang Tian grinning, with two rows of white teeth that almost blinded his eyes.

Jester whispered: "Sir, why don't you take pictures?"

Jiang Tian shook his head and said nothing. In fact, he didn't have enough money. He only had 40 million yuan in his bank card. The reason why he kept bidding so hard was just to trick the other party. Jiang Tian could imagine that with 9 million US dollars, Bill must have felt like eating shit after buying a crown worth up to 2 million US dollars.

Jester suddenly laughed: "I understand, sir, you must want to rob in secret? Right?"

Jiang Tian did not answer, but his expression was already telling Jester that he had guessed it right. Jester said with a shy face: "Sir, you must take me with you when the time comes. That damn Bill must sink him to the bottom this time." Go feed the fish in the sea!”

Jiang Tiandao: "We won't be noticed by Wu Sha if we do something on Mora Island, right?"

Jester said: "Although it is forbidden to fight with weapons on Mora Island, this is only an official rule. It is just like national regulations that cannot break the law. It is not a lot of people killing people and setting fires. As long as they do it quietly, nothing will happen. !”

There are still some auction items, but Jiang Tian is not interested in them. In this auction, the highest price was a painting by a painter Jiang Tian had never heard of before his death. It sold for a sky-high price of 220 million U.S. dollars. It was a Saudi tycoon. The photo was taken by a wealthy man. After being introduced by Jester, Jiang Tiancai knew that the name of this rugged middle-aged man was Payne. He was the manager of the Shatlock family and the younger brother of the current Locke family. He is the eldest brother. two.

"The Locke family?" Jiang Tian was stunned.

Jester smiled mischievously and said: "Yes, that's right, sir, the family of your lover sister Fatima is one of the top five richest families in Saudi Arabia, if not the first or second. There are so many oil fields under our control that we can’t even exploit them!”

Jiang Tian nodded. He didn't expect to meet Fatima's second uncle here. Thinking of Fatima, a delicate mixed-race face appeared in his mind, especially those eyes, which were as clear as pure water.

Jester smiled and said: "Sir, how about we visit the Locke family next time? You take care of Fatima. By then we will be rich in the oil business!"

Seeing the mean smile on Jester's face, Jiang Tian could hardly help but punch him and smash his face.

The auction will last for 3 days. At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the day's auction ended. Everyone was guided by the people in the castle to the back garden of the castle. The garden was very large, with fountains, flower beds, food and respectful waiters. There is also a band playing European classical music.

Stepping into the garden, Jester said with envy: "This is the real aristocratic life!"

Bora said at the right time: "Jester, I can give you a sum of money to buy you a manor in the Spanish countryside, and you can live your aristocratic life!"

Jester smiled and said: "Hey, I was just joking with the adults!"

In the garden, Jiang Tian finally saw the legendary Wu Sha, but he was shocked. The middle-aged man in a tuxedo and meticulously groomed standing in front of him on the rostrum was Bo La, who had lived hundreds of lives in his mouth. Year old?

Wusha's voice was not loud but full of majesty. He did not say lengthy words, but simply said a few words of welcome and then disappeared, as if he was very busy.

The person who entertained everyone was Kudli, the steward, who traveled among the dignitaries.

Bora had already gone to chat with people he knew, and Jiang Tian and Jester were sitting on their seats, sipping the wine.

Jester praised: "This red wine must be more than a hundred years old. It is mellow and delicious. It tastes better than any red wine I have ever tasted!"

Jiang Tian nodded: "It tastes really good!"

He can't drink red wine, but he can still tell the difference between good and bad wine.

"Aha, dear gentlemen, you must have never imagined that we meet again!"

An annoying and arrogant voice sounded, and Bill appeared in front of the two of them, holding a wine glass in his hand, followed by two tall men in black suits who stood upright.

"I really regret not beating you to death in Miami!" Jester glared at Bill fiercely.

Bill subconsciously touched his still swollen face, and looked at Jiang Tian and Jester with sinister eyes, like wolves trying to bite people, "I swear to God, you will regret what you did before. Yes, I swear! Red Scarf Pirates, I know your origins, just wait for the endless revenge of the Lewis family!"

Jiang Tian said slowly: "You still want to wait until you are safely back in the United States, Mr. Bill!" (To be continued...)
