Xianyuan Farm
Chapter 658 Party Auction
Yorkland County's charity gala is really a bit special. Participants are actually required to bring their own auction items. However, since he has come to Australia, Gu Hongyu will naturally abide by the rules of the game here. What should he bring to participate in the photo shoot? The moment he answered the operator Gu Hongyu has already thought of the answer. novel
Three days later in the afternoon, Lin Feiyu proudly drove Gu Hongyu's Rolls-Royce on the road to Yorkland County.
"It's great, boss. This car is much more enjoyable to drive than my car. How about we drive it instead?"
Gu Hongyu looked at him and smiled: "Okay, no problem at all. I don't want your Land Rover, but you don't have to think about this year's year-end bonus."
"Forget it, I shouldn't buy the one million Australian dollar year-end bonus myself. Do I need your used second-hand car?" Lin Feiyu immediately disagreed.
Gu Hongyu suddenly said angrily: "Hey, you think my car is second-hand. Who insisted on driving it when we first set off?"
"This is just an addiction. I will buy a better super luxury car than this one after I become proficient in driving it." Lin Feiyu is indeed capable now, and his back is straight when he speaks.
"Okay, are you treating my car as a coach?" Gu Hongyu said angrily.
Just as the two of them were talking to each other, Yorkland County appeared in front of them.
As soon as he got off the car, Gu Hongyu saw Sheriff Andrew approaching with a smile on his face: "Welcome, sir. I haven't seen you in the past few days and you are driving a super luxury car. I also heard that you went to the Brisbane Auto Show and Sales Center last time. It made a big splash..."
Gu Hongyu interrupted the other party's politeness: "Master Sheriff, these are all trivial matters. It is a feat that Yorkland County holds a charity party today!"
"Hahaha..." Mr. Andrew enjoyed the compliments very much and said with a smile on his face: "Thanks to your support and the support of powerful bosses like you, I can have the courage to hold this party! "
The appearance of the Rolls-Royce Ghost immediately attracted the attention of many people, but when they saw Gu Hongyu, who was full of oriental temperament, many people smiled and nodded at him as a greeting, and then they were no longer so surprised.
A man who could spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a farm. Buying a luxury car like this is not at all out of the ordinary. Perhaps in the eyes of some people, with Gu Hongyu's status, the luxury car he drives must at least be of the global limited edition to be considered affordable.
Entering the hall, Gu Hongyu came to the reception desk of an organizer, where he handed two wooden boxes to a staff member, while the county guard Andrew on the side smiled happily again.
What Gu Hongyu just handed over to the staff was the items he took out for the auction tonight. Originally, the items for the auction tonight would be picked up by specialized staff from Yorkland County. Of course, the treasure holder could also bring them over by himself, but The first step is to tell the staff what the treasure is, what its characteristics are, the requirements of the treasure holder, etc.
And these two treasures are packed in wooden boxes. Sheriff Andrew knew the inside story. Anyway, the kind of treasures that Gu Hongyu had brought out at charity galas in the past were very valuable. Even when the Sheriff saw the pictures of the treasures, he couldn't help but buy them.
As soon as he handed the two wooden boxes to the staff for signature, someone immediately stopped him from behind: "Old Ban. Haha, I knew you would come today, but I didn't expect you to come so early."
A familiar voice turned around and saw that this was Sun Dalei. The farm he bought lived next to him: "Boss Sun, why haven't you come to my farm to sit and sit during this time?"
Looking at Gu Hongyu's smiling face, Sun Dalei said: "After I bought the farm, I realized how many trivial things there are. It's endless. I'm not like your big farm. I heard that there are hundreds of employees. If the farm is fully utilized, I'm afraid Thousands of employees are needed.”
Before Gu Hongyu could speak, Sun Dalei said again: "I think you are quite busy during this period. It is a fishing ground and a farm, and the construction inside is also in full swing. I would not be embarrassed to come to you, otherwise this After the charity party, I will go to your farm tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?”
"Haha, okay, you're welcome at any time!" Gu Hongyu replied with a big smile.
At this time, as the charity gala was approaching, more and more guests came to the Sheriff's Mansion. Sun Dalei also took a wooden box and handed it to the staff, and then followed Gu Hongyu into the auction hall.
It was said to be an auction hall, but it looked like the layout of a reception. Only then did Gu Hongyu realize that the charity party was like this. Lin Feiyu looked at him with a smile on his face. Gu Hongyu said: "You can laugh if you want. I've just come from being a commoner to today. It's not embarrassing that many people at the top don't know the news."
When Gu Hongyu said this, Lin Feiyu became serious: "Boss, I'm used to joking with you. Don't mind it just now. In fact, you are the person I admire most in my heart. From poverty to nothing, you have created what you are today in a short period of time." This kind of wealth can be said to be rare. I apologize for what I just said.”
Unexpectedly, Lin Feiyu actually said sorry to him seriously, which made Gu Hongyu and Sun Dalei next to him a little confused: "Forget it, don't talk about this, the auction will start soon, we will just watch."
The time had just reached 6:30 in the afternoon, and the charity party officially started. I saw this wooden platform set up in a corner of the banquet. An auctioneer-looking person stood on it, holding a gavel high and knocking on a board on the wooden table.
"Bang", everyone in the venue almost stopped talking at this sound, and turned uniformly towards the direction of the auctioneer on the wooden platform. People were standing, sitting, drinking wine, and eating pastries. This is true.
Soon the auctioneer asked the staff to bring a treasure on a plate. Gu Hongyu's sharp eyes saw that it was a watch.
Next, the auctioneer introduced the details of the watch: "First of all, good evening, everyone. Welcome guests to come here today to participate in the charity sale party. Now the first item is presented. What is displayed in front of everyone is a patekphilippe/ Patek Philippe 18k rose gold automatic mechanical watch for men, model 5146r-001.”
"As we all know, Patek Philippe watches are the number one watch in the world, which means the most expensive watch. As the only watchmaker in Geneva, this Patek Philippe enjoys comprehensive innovation in the overall process of design, production, and assembly. Freedom to create global watch masterpieces that are praised by experts all over the world... Patek Philippe has more than 80 technology patents so far. "
"The same model of Patek Philippe watch is now sold on the market for more than 80,000 Australian dollars. So at today's party, in order to make everyone active, its bottom auction price is 30,000 Australian dollars, and each increase in price cannot be less than 1,000 Australian dollars. , the auction starts now..."
"Boss, this watch suits you very well, hurry up and take a photo." Lin Feiyu said his opinion on the side.
However, Sun Dalei next to him also followed up and said: "Guban, 18k rose gold is really suitable for your age. For a financially strong person like Guban, luxury cars and watches are not an exaggeration at all."
In just a few short conversations, the price of patekphilippe skyrocketed, and the price has exceeded 50,000 Australian dollars.
However, this is not the end, there are still people raising their bids.
"51,000."
"52,000."
"..."
"60,000."
It wasn't until 60,000 Australian dollars was reached that the pace of competition slowed down. Gu Hongyu hadn't even raised his racket yet, but Lin Feiyu made the decision for him and shouted directly: "65,000."
The sudden increase of 5,000 Australian dollars caused the scene to pause for a while. Many people turned around to see who dared to be so arrogant. However, after seeing Gu Hongyu, some people nodded towards him again, and others gave him a An unconvinced look.
Price increases continue.
"66,000."
"..."
"68,000."
"..."
"75,000."
This price is almost the price of a new watch, and the voices raising the price have been extinguished at this point, and the speaker is a Yorkland County aristocrat Regino who was introduced to Gu Hongyu by the county warden when he purchased land last time. De, after he raised the price, he looked at Gu Hongyu, raised his wine glass and touched it from afar.
"Boss, he is provoking. If you keep doing it for him, it will cost you more than 100,000 Australian dollars. What does this amount of money mean?" Now Lin Feiyu was watching from the side and was even more excited than Gu Hongyu.
Gu Hongyu sipped the red wine slowly and gracefully, but the red wine at the reception was far worse than what he brewed himself. This made Gu Hongyu frown, which made Lin Feiyu think that Gu Hongyu agreed with his idea, and immediately He raised the price again and shouted: "76,000."
This made Gu Hongyu dumbfounded and said in a low voice: "General Manager Lin, you took the photo and paid for it out of your own pocket later!"
"Ah, boss, I took the photo for you!" Lin Feiyu was dumbfounded.
Reginald watched Gu Hongyu raise the price and decisively stopped bidding. In the end, Patek Philippe's price stayed at 76,000 yuan. After the auctioneer asked repeatedly and still no one accepted, he only saw his gavel fall hard again: "The transaction was 76,000 yuan. Congratulations to this boss from the East for winning the first lot tonight."
Gu Hongyu looked at Lin Feiyu teasingly: "General Manager Lin, come on, I'm waiting for you to go over and pay!"
At this time, Lin Feiyu almost started crying and said in a low voice: "Boss, this watch really suits you. Even if I buy it, it doesn't look like it even if I wear it. Besides, I didn't bring any money when I went out today. It's up to you." Bar."
"There is another thing to say..." Seeing Lin Feiyu cheating, not only Gu Hongyu, but also Sun Dalei next to him was dumbfounded, thinking blankly in his heart, "There are such weird bosses and employees, my little heart is so drunk ”
