Chapter 491 Trouble one after another

Brett thought for a while, and finally nodded slightly. Abigail's words were not unreasonable.Since this Fang Ming opened an antique shop, of course he wanted to make money—how can a businessman push money out?
If he was provided with an auction channel to enter the foreign market, how could the other party not be tempted at all?
Moreover, this is also a good thing for the company. The purpose of my visit to Abigail this time is to find a stable channel for Chinese antique artworks, so I told Fang Ming this idea during the discussion. Solving the company's problems can also be sold to Fang Ming, which is definitely a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

"Abigail, your idea is good, let's do this after the auction."

Brett agreed to Abigail's proposal, "Then is there any way we can deal with this Lu Yao now? Even if we don't mess up her auction, we have to let her know how powerful we are."

"The easiest thing is to find fake antiques such as high imitations among the antiques that can be auctioned."

Abigail is indeed a person who has been in the auction house for many years, and she grasped the point at once.Although the things auctioned by the auction company are guaranteed to be genuine, if there are fakes, it will definitely be a huge blow to the reputation of the auction company.

At this time, if there are still people who make up some stories behind the scenes and promote it, the effect will be more obvious: no one is willing to bid for an auction company that is rumored to put fake things up for auction.

"Then... are there any fakes among the antiques auctioned here?"

Brett looked around, and he found that there were quite a lot of antiques auctioned today, but he and Abigail got to know the news too late, and hadn't come to learn about these antiques before, and if they started to look at them now, it would be too late!

Abigail shook her head and said, "Let's hurry up and take a look. If we can find a high imitation, that's the best. If we can't find it, then forget it. Let's play by ear during the auction."

Brett knew that this was the only way to go, so he and Abigail seized the time to appraise the antiques.

When Abigail and Brett were talking about Fang Ming and Lu Yao, they were also talking about Abigail and the others.

"These two are malicious, especially that Abigail, the fire of jealousy almost ignited!"

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Isn't it? You can feel this?"

"How can you not feel it?"

Fang Ming exaggeratedly raised his hands, gestured vigorously, and said: "This man's jealousy is no less than that of a woman, especially this Abigail who almost wanted to duel with me! However, If he dares to do this, I will definitely beat him to the ground!"

Fang Ming is as confident in his ability to fight as he is in his identification ability. Although Abigail is tall and looks very strong, if he really fights, he is confident that he can kill the opponent with three or two moves. down.

"By the way, I think he must have chased you before? This is the so-called love and hatred!"

Lu Yao nodded and said, "Yes, that's right, it's true. When I was still in the company, Abigail pursued me, and the whole company knew about it."

"Oh? This Abigail looks okay to me, and she also looks rich. Why don't you think about it?"

As he was talking, Fang Ming suddenly found that Lu Yao was staring at him fiercely, and he almost wanted to slap himself hard. Lu Yao just likes women, so how could she accept Abigail at that time? ?

Abigail couldn't tell that Lu Yao was a girl, and she still wanted to pursue it romantically, wouldn't that be hitting the iron plate?
"Hahaha! I didn't ask this question before. By the way, Lu Yao, why did you leave that company before? I think Abigail and that Brett are full of resentment towards you."

"It turned out that when I was in the company, I belonged to the high-level managers and was mainly responsible for the planning of the auction. The real reason for leaving the company later was that I accidentally discovered that many of the antiques auctioned by the company were smuggled from our country. "

"When I first found out about this, I didn't say anything about it. Instead, I conducted further investigations in secret, and found out that the company I was working for had a so-called small team of three working in our country for many years. There are many ways to search for antiques and other works of art. The most they deal with are all kinds of tomb robbers."

"It's a pity that I tried a lot of methods but couldn't get strong evidence. After I found that there was no hope of finding evidence, I didn't want to stay in that company anymore, so I simply resigned. After returning, I established an auction company .Abigail and the others know a little about these things, so they can't have any good looks towards me."

Lu Yao looked at Abigail and Brett who were looking at the antiques on the shelves in the crowd, sneered, and continued: "I think they are looking for trouble for us now."

Fang Ming nodded and said: "Yes, it seems that they are really rude. It's strange. Just now they said that they would talk to me after the auction is over. Don't you want to lose face?"

"It's not surprising. Now this auction company is mine alone, not yours. The news of our cooperation has not been spread. How could they have thought of this possibility? As for me? That's the same as their relationship with them on the surface. Polite, but everyone knows what's going on, so if they get the chance to step on me, they will definitely not let it go."

Rubbing his nose, Fang Ming realized that what Lu Yao said was probably the truth, "It seems that I will give them some color later."

"Fang Ming, it seems that our troubles today are not limited to Abigail and these two."

Lu Yao pointed to the gate, and Fang Ming looked over and found two short and fat people walking up: they were already short, but their stomachs protruded, making them even shorter: people like this in this world There are only people from island countries.

"Not on the list?"

Fang Ming was just confirming, because if this was someone on Lu Yao's list, she would not have reacted like this.

"People from these two island countries have been here before, and they stayed for a few hours, and they just came together in front of those antiques. They must be full of bad water."

Lu Yao was really impressed with these two islanders. In the few days before the auction, these two people came every day, and they came when the door just opened and then stayed until the door closed before reluctantly leaving. Coupled with that figure, it doesn't matter if you don't want to pay attention.

Fang Ming's brows were tightly frowned, because he found that people from the two island countries were all coming to the two pieces of porcelain that he told Lu Yao last night.

"It seems that these two boys are also interested in those two pieces of porcelain."

Those two pieces of porcelain are both good things, but the person Lu Yao invited was mistaken. Fang Ming gave Lu Yao an idea to solve this problem before, but if people from the island country took them away, that would be another matter. ——If no one can see that it is actually a good thing and let people from the island country auction it off at a relatively low price, wouldn’t it be a big loss.

No, this has to find a way to solve it.

"But... the auction is public. If people from these two island countries keep bidding and no one else bids higher than them, we can't deny them."

"This is indeed a problem. I will soon become a shareholder of the auction company. It is not convenient to bid. If people find out in the future, it will still be a fuss. Therefore, I need to find someone to take the auction."

Fang Ming frowned. Now that the auction is about to start, it is really difficult to find someone who has nothing to do with him and Lu Yao to take pictures of these two pieces of porcelain.

"The auction time is coming soon, what should I do?"

Lu Yao looked at her phone and realized that it was almost ten o'clock.

"Well, you go and do your work, and leave this matter to me."

Fang Ming had already said before that even if each of these two pieces of porcelain was bought at a price of 200 million, he could earn several million. It can be seen that the price of 20 announced by him is far from its real value. If the people who come here tonight, except those from the two island countries, do not participate in the auction, then things will be really big.

However, the filming was about to start, and Lu Yao had to go to the backstage to watch, so she couldn't separate herself to deal with this matter.

"Fang Ming, according to their prices, these two pieces of porcelain will be auctioned at the top of the list. They will be in the fifth or sixth place. You need to hurry up."

After Lu Yao finished speaking, she left in a hurry. The auction was about to start, so she had to keep an eye on it, in case something really happened that required her to make up her mind.

After Lu Yao left, Fang Ming thought for a while and walked towards the people from the two island countries. As soon as he got closer, he found that the people from the two island countries even wanted to put their noses on the porcelain: if it wasn't for standing next to him For the waiters, Fang Ming believed that they must have stretched out their hands.

"Grandma's! These two people are really interested in it."

Seeing the other party like this, Fang Ming knew that the other party must be following him, and now he must go further to confirm.

Looking around, Fang Ming immediately shook his head. He saw that the tables around these two pieces of porcelain were basically empty. Obviously not many people were interested, so even if someone participated in the auction, they would not be able to bid. Come at a high price.

"We have to think of a way!"

Fang Ming's brows were furrowed tightly, and a pimple protruded.
