Golden Fishery

I took a nap for a while, and it was a bit late, everyone, forgive me, there are no shells in the early morning, and I can't get rid of the shells. During the part-time job, it is too strenuous to explode while going to work! \u0026\u0026\u0026\u0026

The exhibition lasted only two and a half hours, until noon, and then the participants went out to eat, and the artworks were packed up and put backstage, ready for auction.

Qin Shiou pulled Billy and asked in a low voice: "I said you are really courageous, pretending to be a first-rank official's Chaozhu? Doesn't anyone find the tricks in it?"

Billy grinned and said, "Who is pretending to be? Qin, you made a few mistakes. First, the red coral chaozhu was specially prepared by your first and second-rank officials in the Qing Empire. You may not know the original owner of this chaozhu." Or Li Hongzhang, Zeng Guofan and the others. Second, this string of court beads is not just a fake, you have to understand this."

"What do you mean?" Qin Shiou asked.

"The bead in the middle is real. I bought it from an old Chinese collector in San Francisco with a lot of effort. It is indeed the court bead used by Jiang Linzhao. Unfortunately, there is only one. I used this Mix one bead into your string of court beads, so that the whole string of beads is genuine, what is it called in your China? Fish eyes and pearls?" Billy asked.

Qin Shiou shrugged and said, "No, in our country this is called fudge, big fudge!"

I have to admit that Billy is a smart guy. He succeeded in fooling around this time. Originally, a string of red coral beads worth at most 300,000 to 500,000 Canadian dollars, once linked to a celebrity, the value doubled immediately.

One o'clock in the afternoon. The auction officially started, and an experienced auctioneer auctioned off the items in a cadenced voice. Qin Shiou was not very interested in these items. Just holding the phone and watching the news.

There are quite a lot of news about him in the fishery industry. In addition to the news that the Daito Showa Maru was fined and the owner of the Gatorade fishery was fined for poisoning the fishery, there is another piece of news that the Japanese tuna farming industry has declared bankruptcy. The bluefin tuna are gone...

It is said that after hearing the news, the price of bluefin tuna fillets in Japanese restaurants suddenly doubled.

Billy touched Qin Shiou, and he looked up to see that his red coral pearl was on the auction stage.

After the auctioneer introduced the origin and characteristics of this court bead. Then he quoted the reserve price: "The starting price is 1.5 million, and each increase should not be less than 50,000. Please quote..."

Now that the Chinese are becoming the mainstream of the art consumer market, several yellow-skinned men immediately started bidding, and the price quickly rose from 1.5 million to 1.85 million, and after several rounds of bidding. A wealthy Russian businessman participated in the process and raised the price to 2 million.

Qin Shiou nodded to Billy, your kid has done a good job this time.

A Chinese man raised his hand and shouted '2.05 million', and the wealthy Russian businessman immediately called out the price of '2.1 million'. Finally, another Chinese man struggled with the price, and finally set the price at '2.25 million'.

Qin Shiou felt that money from the rich was easy to earn sometimes. It was the so-called cycle of heaven and repeated retribution. These capitalists exploited the working people, and now he, the working people, cheated money from the capitalists.

Qin Shiou lost interest after Chaozhu was photographed. Taking advantage of the break in the middle, he patted his ass and left. When he was about to leave, he saw the Russian who took the pilgrimage find Billy and asked, "You are Mr. Billy Stormer? Where did you get Admiral Jiang?" Chaozhu?"

Qin Shiou thought that Chaozhu had some secrets. He stopped and listened.

As a result, the Russians later said that his family had some connections with this Admiral Jiang. His ancestors were persecuted by the Russian Tsar and exiled in the Qing Dynasty. yellow bearded soldier.

Later Admiral Jiang died of illness, and the ancestors of the Russians returned to Siberia. In his diary, he recorded this pair of court beads in detail, saying that these court beads were once his dream. Russians do this as fulfilling the wishes of their ancestors.

After understanding this, Qin Shiou couldn't help laughing secretly. This Russian buddy must have made a mistake. What his ancestors dreamed of was the status represented by this court bead—from a first-rank official, nine admirals, and important ministers of the Qing Dynasty, not just a single Beads.

In the evening, Billy and Little Blake came to find Qin Shiou, and yelled at him to take him to participate in the midnight drag race.

During the day, Little Blake had a shiny suit, leather shoes and leather shoes, but now he is dressed as a young and Dangerous boy, his hair is fixed with hairspray and sticks up like a torch. Wearing a tight leather jacket covered with chains and spike gloves on his hands, he looked very rebellious.

Like Qin Shiou, Blake Jr. also drove his Porsche 918, and the appearance of two super sports cars of the same shape and model driving side by side is quite impressive.

Enjoying the envious eyes of passers-by at the hotel, Qin Shiou said with satisfaction: "Although we will be despised later, it's not bad to be envied now."

After hearing his words, Little Black asked strangely: "Why should we be despised?"

Qin Shiou said: "Look, we are driving a Porsche 918. This kind of superficial sports car should be the most disdainful thing for car modification experts? I watch movies, and the drag racing scenes are all crazy modified sports cars. "

Little Black and Billy looked at him blankly, then looked at each other and laughed.

Billy laughed and said, "Are you kidding me? This is a Porsche 918. Although it's not the top sports car, it's still a top-notch car! Who do you think disdains this kind of car? People who change cars? Let them eat shit. Are the engineers hired by Porsche a lot of money not as good as those half-baked guys who haven't gone to college? Are you kidding me!"

Little Blake patted Qin Shiou on the shoulder and said, "Dude, you were deceived by the movie! How can there be so many car modification experts? Even if there are, you hand over the Porsche 918 to them, and they can only change the exhaust pipe and the steering wheel. class, I’m afraid they don’t understand anything else!”

Afterwards, two Porsche 918s drove one after the other towards Grebel, outside Ottawa, where the midnight racing took place.

Grebel is known as the "Emerald Necklace of the Capital". It is the largest green belt in Ottawa. It is located in the northern outskirts of the urban area. It covers an area of ​​18,000 hectares and stretches for a total of 45 kilometers. The road is flat and the road is winding. Just right for drag racing.

In the movie, there were thousands of people at the drag racing scene, but in fact there were not that many. After Qin Shiou drove to the suburbs, he found that there were indeed many cars at the scene, but there were only sixty or seventy sports cars, most of which were ordinary modified cars, SUVs, and off-road vehicles. such as.

However, there are quite a few beauties, but it’s only the middle of May, and the girls have already put on miniskirts, navel dresses, and some women simply wear bikini-like bellybands, showing off their smooth skin and slim figure come out.

Two Porsche 918s drove in, and there were whistles and applause at the scene. Qin Shiou thought he would be taught to be a human being, but it seemed that he didn't need it. (to be continued)
