MTL - Shocking the Whole Internet! You Are Not a Psychologist at All!-Chapter 202 Charity auction is also a business
Chapter 202 Charity auction is also a business
If the murderer father and son know the Taoist techniques and want to make people disappear silently in the world, there are various ways.
Burying the corpse deep in the pit seems safe, but in fact there are many loopholes.
Hangzhou is a first-tier city in China, and the land inside and outside the city is precious.
In case this area is demolished one day.
The bones buried by them will be exposed at any time.
Judging from the modus operandi, the murderer father and son don't look like people from the Taoist sect.
Chen Yu couldn't judge their location, and this matter seemed full of doubts.
"Jingle Bell…"
Halfway there, the phone rang suddenly.
Seeing that it was Wang Dequan calling, Chen Yu picked up the phone smoothly.
"Doctor Chen, do you have time tonight?"
"If there is one, I would like to invite you to an auction."
During the phone call, Wang Dequan clearly stated his meaning.
Not long ago, Chen Yu asked Wang Dequan to help him find a lot of rare things.
Wang De, who knew little about Feng Shui metaphysics, was surprised to find that all Chen Yu was looking for were high-quality materials for making magical instruments.
Guess that during this period of time, Chen Yu should be manufacturing magic weapons on a large scale.
At tonight's auction, there will be many rare antiques.
The finale of the auction is a 200-year-old wild ginseng.
Wang Dequan believed that Chen Yu would definitely be interested in this auction.
"I'll go back now, later, you come to the psychological consultation room to pick me up."
Chen Yu, who often saw auction scenes in movies and novels, was somewhat curious about the real auction.
In addition to the things that appeared in the auction, there are many things that Chen Yu is interested in.
Chen Yu immediately followed suit and agreed to Wang Dequan's invitation.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Wang Dequan drove over in person.
Pick up Chen Yu and go to a private club in the city.
The auction will be held here.
An invited guest can bring one or two companions.
Due to the large amount involved in the auction, each invited guest needs to pay a deposit of 2 million yuan in advance.
"Doctor Chen, tell me in advance what you want to buy, and I will pay for it for you."
Hearing this, Chen Yu said with a smile that was not a smile: "Boss Wang, you don't have anything to ask me for?"
"Dr. Chen misunderstood, I have absolutely no intention of that, just... I just think that it is better to help you buy what you need than to buy it indiscriminately."
Wang Dequan showed an embarrassed expression.
The auction is charitable.
The proceeds will go to a charitable fund.
Used to help out-of-school children and provide infrastructure funds for some impoverished areas.
Since Chen Yu advised Wang Dequan to do more good deeds and accumulate merit.
Wang Dequan would not go to various charity events in Hangzhou.
In just over a month, Wang Dequan has become one of the best philanthropists in the philanthropy circle in Hangzhou.
"So you thought so, hahaha."
Chen Yu couldn't laugh or cry.
A businessman is a businessman.
No matter when it comes to budgeting carefully.
By frequently attending charity events, gain fame for yourself and accumulate merit and good luck.
On the other hand, help Chen Yu buy things he is interested in, and further deepen the relationship with Chen Yu.
Kill two birds with one stone properly.
Not long after, the car parked in the parking lot in front of the clubhouse.
It was already 7:40 in the evening, and the parking lot was full of various types of luxury cars.
The two doormen trotted all the way, and politely opened the doors on both sides.
After confirming the identity, the doorman leads the way.
led the two to the lobby of the clubhouse.
After a temporary change, the hall became an auction venue.
An auction stand was temporarily set up in front of it.
There are dozens of chairs in the middle.
"Why are there so many foreigners?"
Chen Yu froze for a moment.
It was different from the auction he had imagined.
The guests who participated in the auction included not only some Chinese, but also many foreigners.
Skin tones vary, men and women, young and old.
Wang Dequan introduced: "Many of the things that appeared in today's auction are cultural antiques."
"It has always been popular abroad to collect cultural and antiques from our country, so an auction like this must have foreigners."
Chen Yu nodded, and followed Wang Dequan to sit in the middle of the auction room.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the auction officially started.
The hostess lady in a cheongsam, with high heels on her feet, came to the stage gracefully carrying a tray.
The auctioneer picked up a snuff bottle from the tray and began to introduce various aspects of this thing.
Praise the snuff bottle as the top-grade snuff bottle in Qing Dynasty.
Lightweight workmanship and unique craftsmanship.
The glaze recipe has long been lost.
Whether it is workmanship, shape, glaze color.
are all rare good products.
To make such a perfect snuff bottle, the right time, place and people are all necessary.
"I declare that the starting price of this snuff bottle is 200,000 yuan, and each increase should not be less than 20,000 yuan."
"Welcome all guests to bid enthusiastically."
Under the stage, Chen Yu was dumbfounded.
A snuff bottle from the mid-Qing Dynasty was praised by the auctioneer as a peerless masterpiece that is rare in the sky and rare on the ground.
I don’t know, I thought it was a national treasure.
Wang Dequan laughed and said, "Does Doctor Chen think that the auctioneer's praise is a bit too much?"
Chen Yu smiled wryly and said, "It can't be too much, but it's a little unrealistic."
As far as Chen Yu knows, there are a lot of snuff bottles in existence.
Even the snuff bottles from the palace are not necessarily rare treasures.
Wang Dequan said: "Three hundred and sixty lines, every line is business."
"All the proceeds from this auction will be used for charity, but the organizer of the auction will not really do charity on an empty stomach."
“They’ll take a cut of the gross revenue.”
"The more extravagant the auctioneer's praise, the more it will attract everyone's curiosity."
"In turn attracting a large number of guests to bid for the auction."
"Doctor Chen, look around."
"The guests who were listless just now, are all of them full of energy now?"
Chen Yu glanced left and right from the corner of his eye.
The situation is indeed as Wang Dequan said.
Among the guests sitting on both sides, there are many young children from rich families.
The auction just started, and these people either looked down and played with their mobile phones, or looked like they lacked interest.
Now all come to the spirit.
Indeed, everything is a business.
Even charity auctions need a lot of fanfare to get the most bang for their buck.
In the end, the snuff bottle was bought by a rich boy at a price of 480,000 yuan.
"How do you get this little money?"
Chen Yu was puzzled: "So many people bid enthusiastically, the final transaction price did not even exceed 500,000."
"I used to read novels, and in order to shoot a thing, I often bid 18 million yuan, and it was commonplace to exceed 100 million yuan."
Wang Dequan said dumbfoundedly: "Dr. Chen, a novel is a novel, and reality is reality."
"When I'm free, I'm also interested in reading novels to pass the time."
"Every time I see someone bidding hundreds of millions or more than a billion at an auction just to compete for one lot, my stomach bursts out laughing."
