At the appointed time, Yan Xi brought three antique appraisers to the hotel to find Su Yan.
Su Yan was in a good mood today. The two stocks she bought in the morning rose again. Although not as much as in the previous two days, they still rose by seven or eight points.
So when Yan Xi brought people over, she took the initiative to take out her three antiques one by one.
After repeated appraisals by three appraisers, they finally unanimously determined that the antiques in Su Yan's hands were all genuine and estimated their prices.
Unexpectedly, the most expensive item was the small Ru kiln azure bowl with an imperial inscription by Emperor Qianlong on the bottom. Su Yan initially thought the bowl was from the Ru kiln during the Qianlong reign, but it turned out to be from the Song Dynasty. Since it had an inscription by Emperor Qianlong on the bottom, it was naturally more expensive than the plum vase with dragon pattern.
The small Ru kiln bowl is estimated at 3.8 million, the vase is estimated at 2.4 million, and the painting of magpies climbing branches is only 1.2 million.
These prices are just estimates. Whether they can be sold at a higher price depends on the actual results of the auction on that day. In addition, the auction house will take 30% of the profit.
Su Yan felt that the commission was a bit high. Yan Xi said that his friend's company was a big company and the people invited to participate in the auction were all celebrities and wealthy people.
"Ms. Su, if you don't participate in the auction, we can buy your collection at 90% of the estimated value. What do you think?"
"Let me think about it and give you an answer this afternoon."
Su Yan knew that these antiques would definitely be worth more money at auction in the future, but she needed money to invest now, and there were dozens of boxes of antiques in the space, so selling two or three would not have much of an impact.
After Yan Xi and his group left, Su Yan put the antiques and collection boxes into the space. She returned to the space, made herself a simple meal, and then went to the stock exchange to keep an eye on her stocks.
In the afternoon, she sold all the two stocks she bought, chose another stock, invested all the money she earned in it, and watched the market continue to rise.
Su Yan felt like a gambler. She was so excited that she didn't want to go back. She just wanted to stay in Hong Kong and make a lot of money by investing in stocks.
As soon as the market closed, she would go shopping with her bag on her back, buying whatever she liked.
Thinking that her second brother needed a color TV that she hadn't bought yet, she took a taxi to the big mall to look at electrical appliances. She didn't buy anything after looking at the appliances, but asked the salesperson about delivery. He said that if she bought a lot, they would deliver to her door in the city. Then she went to look at furniture downstairs.
I've taken a fancy to several sets of sofas, some leather and some fabric, all of which look so different that I want to buy them all. However, I can't have them all delivered to the hotel, so it seems I have to rent a warehouse first.
As soon as Su Yan returned to the hotel after shopping, the two brothers Yan Xi and Yan Jun came to her.
"Ms. Su, what have you considered?"
"I've decided to hand over those three antiques to your friend's auction house, and the commission will be yours."
"Okay, come with us to our friend's company tomorrow to sign the contract."
"Yes, Master Yan, is there any warehouse for rent nearby?"
Yan Xi really didn't understand why Su Yan wanted to rent a warehouse for a week. In fact, his company already had a ready-made warehouse, and if she didn't need it for long, he could let her use it for a few days for free.
"Ms. Su, what do you rent a warehouse for?"
"To put things in, it will probably take a week to rent."
"Do you want to rent a large warehouse or a small one?"
"A few hundred square meters will be enough."
"Well, I have two large warehouses, one in Central and one in Tsim Sha Tsui. The Central one is full of goods, but the Tsim Sha Tsui warehouse is currently empty. I can lend it to you for a while, and you don't have to pay."
"Master Yan, you still have to pay me what I owe you. I can't always take advantage of you."
"Ms. Su, you're joking. It's getting late. I'll treat you to dinner."
Seeing that Master Yan was not accompanied by any random women, Su Yan agreed to have something to eat nearby.
The next day, she followed the two Yan brothers to the big company of Yan Xi's friend Ye Heng. The company was indeed very large. It was said that several high-rise buildings nearby belonged to their Ye family.
The Ye family not only owns an auction house, but is also involved in real estate. I heard that their ancestors were shipbuilders.
Yan Xi, who was always high and mighty, bowed and scraped before Ye Heng like a younger brother. Su Yan understood that no matter what era, having money and power was king. She was determined to seize every opportunity to make a fortune, work hard, and strive to become a leader.
Ye Heng originally didn't take Su Yan, the seller, seriously. He thought that he would let his subordinates handle the matter of sending antiques for auction. But who knew that Yan Xi would personally bring people to their company.
Seeing Su Yan, a woman who was no less beautiful or elegant than a female star, Ye Heng's eyes widened. He put down the cigar in his hand and took the initiative to shake hands with her and say hello.
He also said that he wanted to treat Su Yan to a meal. Su Yan looked at the middle-aged man with green eyes and naturally declined politely.
"Boss Ye, I have to go to the stock exchange after signing the contract today, so let's arrange dinner another day!"
"Ms. Su, do you trade stocks? Would you like me to recommend two stocks to you? I think our company's stock is pretty good. It even went up two points today."
It's only increased by two points. She doesn't buy so many stocks that have hit the daily limit, but she buys your company's stocks that have increased by two points. She is not stupid.
"Boss Ye, I'm just a casual retailer buying some stocks for fun. Once I sell the stocks I have, I'll buy your company's stocks."
The appraisers who came to appraise her antiques that day were all employees of Ye's Auction House. Su Yan sat in Ye Heng's office for a while, and then Ran took her and Yan Jun to sign the contract.
As soon as they left, Ye Heng handed Yan Xi a cigar and said with a smile, "Miss Su not only has good features, but also has a great figure. Are you interested?"
"How dare I be interested? My brother warned me not to have any improper thoughts about her. I heard that her husband is the deputy division commander of a certain military region. If I offend her, I will never have to return to China in this life."
"Oh? You said she's seen the prosperity of Hong Kong City, so she might stay there for the money? I can sleep with a big star for a hundred thousand, so how much do you think I should spend to keep her?"
Yan Xi took a deep drag on his cigar, his eyes widened with spitting, and he smiled and said, "Although she's not as rich as me, she should have quite a bit of money. She would definitely not look down on ordinary small amounts of money."
"Then let's make it one million. It's not impossible to spend one million to keep her for two months. After all, those big stars don't have a body as good as hers."
"Let's wait until the auction is over before asking her. If she disagrees, forget it."
Yan Xi was also afraid of getting into trouble. After all, these young men in the upper class played very wildly, and sometimes people were killed, but in the end they were all settled with money.
If something really happens to Su Yan in his hands, the Yan family will probably be in big trouble, so he still has to find a way to persuade Boss Ye.
After all, he has no shortage of women. He has a dozen regular lovers and even more one-night stands. He has slept with all kinds of women, so why does he have to sleep with married women?
