Chapter 140

Ou Yiran looked at Mr. Zaiyu in surprise, then at Pink Girl, and suddenly realized: "So, you are in the same group?"

"Mr. Ou, until now, we don't have to hide it from you. The bidding price at the auction site is actually a game we specially set up for you."

"Why did you do that?" Although Ou Yiran had already expected it in his heart, he really didn't expect that Mr. Zaiyu would collude with Pink Girl.He asked calmly.

"Mr. Ou is a smart man. As the saying goes, there are no fathers and sons in the business world, let alone we have never met each other!" The pink girl put down her hands and said.

"Please sit down, please sit down, let's sit down and talk, Mr. Ou?" Mr. Zai Zuo gave way.

Ou Yiran and Yaliang exchanged glances, and the two sat opposite the pink girl.

Mr. Zaiyu picked up the teapot and filled the cups in front of them, then sat next to the pink girl and said, "Let me introduce myself and my partner first." He looked at Ou Yiran and Yaliang, "We are what people in the industry say Scalpers in the auction field. They specialize in pushing up the price of collections and making profits from it."

"Hmph, your acting skills are really admirable. I only guessed that this lady might be a scalper, but I never thought that you were too." Ou Yiran sneered.

The pink girl smiled and said, "To do this kind of thing, it must be hard to guard against. But today we met Mr. Ou, and we have met our nemesis!"

"I can't talk about nemesis, and I can't comment on your behavior. After all, you are also driven by profit. As long as you don't violate the law, what is it to touch the bottom line of morality!"

"Mr. Ou, I don't want to ask you how you saw through us, but we did touch the bottom line of morality. Now the whole world is looking at money. We don't steal or rob, we don't cheat or abduct, but the methods are difficult Accepted some. Please forgive me."

"But, how did you know my details?" Ou Yiran asked.

"Mr. Ou is a celebrity. We recognized you from the moment you stepped into the auction company." The pink girl laughed.

"You guys can figure it out, how do you know that I will participate in this auction?"

"Mr. Ou, it's not that we can count. We will appear in the previews of all the well-known auction companies in Yanjing. You are concentrating on looking at the collections, but we are carefully studying you. After grasping your preferences and trends, we will prepare for you You tailor-made a game to lure you into Gu."

Ou Yiran and Ya Liang glanced at each other, and asked curiously, "Why me and not someone else?"

"Because only you are the most famous person who appeared at the preview site. We have always been only interested in celebrities." Pink Girl said without hesitation.

"However, this Mr. Zaosu had a shopping fight with us in the morning. How real is the acting? We really didn't expect that Mr. Zaozu would be a scalper?"

"He sang a bad face, the purpose is to make you undefended, and we will appear on the stage later. If smart collectors see through us, it will be able to bring out the authenticity of Mr. Zaozi."

"So, Mr. Zaiyu didn't really want the white Fu'er coin in the morning?"

"That's not necessarily the case. In case we unfortunately receive the last one, although we won't take the collection, we still have to pay a fee to the auction company."

"So you guys are really in cahoots with the auction company?" Ya Liang said suddenly.

"Hahaha, to do this kind of thing, you must work together with the auction company, otherwise it will not work at all."

"However, by doing so, you not only hurt the interests of the collectors, but also the interests of the holders of the collections. Doesn't the auction company care about its own reputation and let you turn your hands into clouds and rain?"

"To be honest with Mr. Ou, we, the auction company, and the owner of the collection are all tacit. During the preview period, the auction company and we will make notes on every collection that well-known collectors have carefully seen. After the auction starts , once you receive the last stick, it’s bad luck for you, once we receive the last stick, it’s bad luck for us, we will compensate the auction company for the fee, and the auction company will use part of it to appease the holder of the collection, and promise to keep the collection For someone, the company will continue the auction for free until it is sold. Of course, some auction companies will not give any compensation to the owner of the collection on the grounds that the bidder refuses to pay the final payment.”

"You guys are really omnipotent, Yanjing is so big, it shouldn't be just your group of scalpers, right?"

"You're right. There are at least ten teams in this kind of business. However, there are industry rules. Each team is responsible for two to three categories of collections, and they must not cross the line. For example, our team focuses on In the stamp card market. There are also teams for porcelain, calligraphy and painting, jewelry and jade, metalware, bamboo, wood, tartar, and ancient books, etc.”

"But after you left, it seems that another scalper came to the ten-yuan discounted white coin?"

"That's a small team with us, a few more unfamiliar faces, the purpose is not to make people overly suspicious."

"Then, since you have received the last stick, just pay the auction company compensation, why do you want to transfer it to me, and save it for the next auction, maybe you will encounter someone who is taken advantage of?"

"Mr. Ou is right. If it is a popular collection, of course we will not let go of the opportunity to take advantage of it. But this is a wrong coin, and the popularity may not last long. In the domestic market, more than one million pieces can be sold. Mistakes are really rare. We don’t want to pass up this opportunity.”

"That's right, it's our good fortune to meet such a great artist as Mr. Ou." Mr. Zaiyu said humbly.

"Hmph, if you hadn't disrupted the situation, we wouldn't have paid 300,000 yuan for the wrong coin in the morning. You made us spend at least 300,000 yuan more." Yaliang blamed.

"Mr. Yaliang, in all fairness, is that piece of lucky ear folding white coin worth 300,000 yuan?" Mr. Zaiyu asked.

"Does it have something to do with the value? The businessman is after profit?" Ya Liang retorted.

The pink girl smiled and said: "Why don't you do it like this, anyway, it's because of us, if Mr. Ya Liang thinks that 300,000 is a bit unjust, then we can suggest that the auction company charge you 300,000 less, but you want this 500,000 edition Dafu ear [-] How about taking [-]?"

Ya Liang and Ou Yiran looked at each other, and said with a smile, "Today is really an eye-opener. But this matter requires Mr. Ou to nod."

The pink girl turned to Ou Yiran and said with a smile: "Mr. Ou has become famous in one fell swoop since the autumn auction last year, and now he is well-known in the industry. You are a master, and you have a lot of adults. Don't let us drink the northwest wind?"

"Well, after entering this business, I will have to deal with you in the future. The so-called one more friend and one more way, as long as I don't cause trouble for us in the future, I promise you."

"Mr. Ou is really quick to talk. I can guarantee that as long as you participate in the bidding in the future, we will avoid it."

"Okay, deal." Ou Yiran offered to extend his hand, and the pink girl shook him.

Mr. Zaixi took the opportunity to stretch out his hand and said: "As the saying goes, once you are born and you are familiar with each other, we will be friends from now on."

Ou Yiran shook hands with him, and said with a smile, "If you were an actor, I'm afraid it would be more suitable."

"Mr. Xie's compliment."

Yaliang also shook hands with them one by one.

"By the way, why didn't you bid for the one hundred yuan watermark on the ninety-ninth edition of the five sets of coins?" Ou Yiran asked curiously.

"If you don't bid, we will have no idea, so how dare we make a rash bid." The pink girl sneered.

"Oh why?"

"Two reasons, one is worrying about which coins are not authentic, and the other is that scalpers are blood-sucking insects attached to big collectors. If you don't speak, we will have no way to speak."

Ou Yiran smiled and said: "Your metaphor is very vivid. But I want to know how the auction company usually handles the unsold collections. Do they directly notify the holder to take it back, or wait for the next opportunity to go up for auction?"

The pink girl focused on Ou Yiran and said with a smile: "Mr. Ou, does he want that watermark?"

Ou Yiran nodded: "Exactly."

"Well, for the unsold collection, I'll get it for you at 200,000 yuan lower than the starting price, how about it?"

"You can decide this matter?" Ou Yiran asked in surprise.

"But you have to agree to give me [-] yuan, and then I will take [-] yuan to the auction company to talk about it with you."

"Your business experience is astonishing. Well, I promise you."

"Okay, we've made a deal. When Mr. Ou gets the [-]-yuan watermark on the [-] edition, we want to pay the goods."

"I, Ou Mouou, keep my word and will never renege on my word."

"Mr. Ou, which one do you like, why don't you tell me together, I will get you all at a price lower than the starting bid, but you must promise to share half of the bonus fee with me."

"It's easy to say, we've made a deal."

Graciously listed the ten-yuan folded white and the ninety-nine edition hundred-yuan watermark on the note, and handed it to the pink girl.

The pink girl smiled and said: "It's really a spring breeze to deal with Mr. Ou. From now on, whenever the wrong coins are auctioned by major auction companies in Yanjing, I will give you feedback as soon as possible. As long as you like it, you don't need to waste time and effort to participate in the auction. If you get them at a price lower than the starting bid, you can return me half of the benefit fee according to the ratio agreed this time."

Ou Yiran and Yaliang looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing: "You are not only beautiful, but also do things more beautifully. Well, Yanjing will depend entirely on you in the future."

"I'm really happy today, Mr. Ou, can I have dinner with you?"

"Alright, I'll treat you to this meal."

"Mr. Ou, you are a guest from afar, how can I let you spend money!"

"Forget it, after the matter is over, I can always ask you back, right?"

"That's right, then I'll contact the manager of the auction company and introduce you."

"Thank you so much."

"Mr. Ou, we are friends, you're welcome."

The dinner that night lasted until after nine o'clock before it ended.It was almost ten o'clock when Ou Yiran and Ya Liang returned to the hotel.

"This trip was so worthwhile. I really answered that sentence. I don't know each other without a fight. This woman's wrist is really amazing." Ou Yiran was full of praise as soon as he entered the door.

"With her watching here, we have indeed saved a lot of trouble. If there is such a person in Shanghai, then our supply of goods will be very sufficient in the future."

"Yeah, if you get hold of a few first-tier cities, are you afraid that you won't make any money? If you're done with your work here, you have to go there."

"It's just that there hasn't been a company that has sold wrong coins in Shanghai over the past few years?"

"Magic City has made too big a step in the past few years. Real and fake auction companies and exhibition companies rushed in. It is said that there were [-] to [-] at the most, and they took up the upfront fees under the guise of auctions. More than half, the impact of fraud is too bad. It is said that the people who were deceived and complained broke the gate of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. I haven't regained my strength for two years!"

"That's right. Since then, the auction industry in Shanghai has plummeted, and the operating performance of some well-known companies has also declined significantly."

"Thus, those who have a collection in their hands and want to sell it will probably be hesitant when they hear that it is a company in Shanghai."

"It's just like being bitten by a snake once, and being afraid of well ropes for ten years. Now the auction industry in Shanghai is not as active as some second-tier cities!"

"Once the influence is ruined, it will be very difficult to restore it."

"Who said no!"

"In short, in the past two years, there has indeed been no news about the auction of wrong coins in Modu."
