Chapter 254: Trade Fair on a Yacht



Si Yingjie is a typical second-generation rich man. His father took advantage of the situation and built up the family business. His sisters studied hard abroad and joined the company after returning. They also caught up with the good opportunity of the new generation. The whole family is thriving and has a bright future

. As the son born in the old age, his parents inevitably favor him. He might have been in internal strife like the Jiang family, but he is a salted fish and has no interest in the company. His life goal is to play games.

Sisters: "Good brother!"

Except for a big setback in marriage, Si Yingjie's life is generally smooth.

Skiing in summer, surfing in winter, going to the Arctic to see the aurora when he is free, riding a hot air balloon across the ocean, occasionally camping in the mountains, and visiting the Antarctic research station.

In addition, he is also happy to participate in some small activities, such as ghost hunting tours in the suburbs of Europe, spending two days and one night on a prison island, etc.

This auction was a club he signed up for four, five or six years ago (I can't remember clearly). Members can bring their own collections to ask others to appraise them, and they can also trade with each other. It is very free and easy.

According to Si Yingjie, he joined the club to buy gifts for his mother, but later found it quite fun, so he never quit.

The club is held irregularly, and each time it is hosted by a different member. You can participate if you are free, and there is no entry threshold. But different organizers have different ideas, and the style is different every time.

Usually, the transaction is anonymous throughout the process - sometimes, some collections are not so formal. As long as you have an invitation letter, no matter if it is stolen, borrowed or obtained in some other way, you can participate.

Not to mention Si Yingjie, even Jian Jing found it fun.

The anonymous auction was like a plot in a fantasy novel.

She boarded the flight with great anticipation and arrived at the dock in an hour and a half. Then, she boarded the luxury yacht that the organizer had moored at the seaside in advance, ready to go to the auction's destination - the high seas.

The yacht is very large, more than 150 meters long, with a total of 20 guest rooms and can accommodate more than 60 crew members. The ship is equipped with outdoor swimming pools, helipads, private theaters, gyms, saunas, SPAs and other multifunctional supporting facilities.

In a nutshell: luxury.

Each room inside is themed after a different country, and it is first come first served.

Jian Jing chose a room in an English castle. The fireplace and armchairs reminded her of Harry Potter's common room.

On her desk, there was a rabbit badge and a yacht manual.

Of course, there was also an introduction to the fair.

The public fair starts at 8 o'clock every evening. Guests can go to the lobby on the third floor of the yacht to participate. There are appraisers invited by the organizers who can help with appraisals and reference prices. You can also find other people to trade with, without any constraints or responsibilities.

The only thing to note is that it is best not to reveal your true identity. Everything is called by a code name.

This year, the zodiac is used as the code name, and there are exactly twelve guests, not more or less.

Jian Jing naturally got the "rabbit".

"So mysterious." Although she complained, she also found it very fun. She changed her clothes and prepared to go to the bar to get some food.

The bar was on the fifth floor, facing the outdoor swimming pool.

Today's temperature was over 20 degrees Celsius, and the sun was shining. When she went up to the deck, she found that there was already someone in the swimming pool.

From the back, it was a young man with a healthy wheat color. Under the sparkling water, the lines of his shoulders, neck and waist were smooth and strong, and he was extremely beautiful.

She paused for a moment and silently took out her mobile phone. When she

turned on the camera, the other party had already swam to the other side, suddenly grabbed her hands, and jumped out of the water. Crystal clear water droplets splashed, flowing down along the lines of his muscles, winding, and finally sinking below the waist.

It was pleasing to the eyes.

The fingers press the button to shoot instantly without the need for the brain to command.

Blue sky, blue sea, chest muscles and abdominal muscles.

Brother Yingjie is so nice.

She likes Si Yingjie more and more.

Jian Jing sat down happily at the bar and ordered a glass of Yangzhi Ganlu. While waiting, she posted the photo just now to her circle of friends.

The drink was served immediately. She took a sip and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Why are there so many red dots on WeChat? Looking down, Ximi almost choked her trachea.

I didn’t notice it just now. It’s not just for the girls. It’s open to the public.

It’s over.

Jian Jing: Ah~~

Ji Feng replied to Ji Yunyun: Minors should pay attention

Ji Yunyun: I turned 18 last month, brother?

Ji Feng replied to Ji Yunyun: What phone do you play in class?

Ji Yunyun: What phone do you play at work?

Ji Feng: Teacher Jian, let’s learn about the crime of spreading *obscene items

Jian Jing: “…”

She silently deleted the circle of friends and pretended that nothing happened.

But Jiang Baiyan immediately sent a photo over, angrily saying: [Teacher Jingjing is too much, as if everyone has abs!!]

Then he swiped through a wave of stock photos.

Jian Jing looked indifferent: [I've seen them all]

He: [???]

Jian Jing: [Director Mei sent me this, and there are also behind-the-scenes footage]

Jiang Baiyan: [TUT Are domestic flowers not as fragrant as wild flowers?]

Jian Jing lied: [Neither is fragrant]

He: [Crying.JPG]

The next one is Monsoon.

He sent Article 363 of the Criminal Law.

Jian Jing: [Then come and arrest me]

Ji Feng: [……]

Jian Jing: [I didn’t see you, why do you care so much?]

He also calmed down.

Then of course it was Mr. Kang.

He probably thought about it for a long time before he said tactfully: [Be careful]

Jian Jing played dumb: [I won’t fall into the sea, I can save myself if I fall into the sea, don’t worry]

It showed that it was typing, but after a long time, it didn’t send out.

Instead, Si Yingjie came over and asked: [Is it fun?]

Jian Jing sent him an awesome emoticon.

Everything is self-explanatory.

"Hi." When she was playing with her phone, the handsome guy with abs came over and started talking to her, "Are you here at the trade fair too?"

Jian Jing looked up and saw his appearance clearly. He had a typical mixed-race look, handsome and generous. His looks did not drag down his figure, and he did not steal the show. He was a handsome guy who was refreshing and comfortable, very likable.

Facing such a person, Huihua was willing to answer, "Yeah, what about you?"

"Me too." He said with a smile, "Wu Ma, what about you?"

Jian Jing, "Rabbit."

"What a cute code name." Wu Ma casually chatted, "Are you here to sell or buy things?"

Jian Jing said, "I want to buy some interesting collections."

Wu Ma was very enthusiastic, "What kind of collections? Era? Country?"

She shook her head and smiled, "I have no idea at all, I'm just looking around - is this your first time here?"

"The second time." He said, "The last time was three years ago. I came with a friend at that time. I helped him find some very good things. Maybe I can help you."

The handsome Wu Ma smiled, with a cunning look in his eyes: "As long as you tell me your requirements, I can help you find out. Porcelain and sculpture are my areas of expertise. If you trust me, I can also help you look." Jian Jing understood

: "How much do I need to pay?"

"For beautiful ladies, only a little." He rubbed his nose and made a little gesture, "Five thousand US dollars, a fixed price. You don't have to worry about the transaction price being determined by me. An additional order will cost an additional thousand US dollars."

Jian Jing said: "What if I can't choose?"

"Then let's make friends." Wu Ma spread his hands, "I won't lose anything

either." Jian Jing had just arrived and was indeed confused. It was good to have a handsome guy as a shopping guide.

She nodded and said, "I want to know what there are."

Wu Ma smiled and said, "Miss Rabbit, you are very lucky. This year there are very valuable collections."

She looked attentively.

"This is a loose club. Although there are many members, most of them are either rich or noble, but the particularly valuable antiques will still be handed over to large auction houses, which is safer and more secure."

When talking about work, Brother Wu Ma immediately showed his professionalism: "I think the transactions in the club are more like 'fun'. This kind of treasure appraisal game full of uncertainty is very interesting. Sometimes you can indeed buy some rare antique collections on the market, but no one will take real treasures as game props."

He glanced at Jian Jing and lowered his voice: "But this year - I'm not sure the news is definitely true, I just vaguely heard the rumor - that someone brought a national treasure-level collection to the trade fair."

Jian Jing was shocked: "Really?"

"No one knows, it's just rumors, most of the time it's false, only a few times..." He paused, then smiled, "To be honest, although I heard this, I don't believe it. Sometimes this kind of news is just to stimulate the guests' gambling desire. Miss Rabbit, I suggest you don't take it seriously, it's more appropriate to treat this as a sea party."

This advice was very sincere, and Jian Jing couldn't help but feel a little fond of him: "I think so, but you haven't mentioned the point yet."

Wu Ma smiled, and he had a unique charm under the sea breeze: "Then let me tell you what I know."

"The collections at the fair are divided into several categories: 1. Genuine antiques, they come from all over the world, they are old or new, usually worth tens of thousands to millions, not too expensive, 2. Some collections with special significance, this range is very wide, last time someone sold the personal belongings of a famous movie star, the value varies from person to person, 3. Some special movables and real estate, usually traded between acquaintances, will not appear in public."

Jian Jing finally had a general idea.

She asked: "Where should I go to see other people's collections?"

"Everwhere." Wu Ma picked up the T-shirt thrown aside and put it on, "Come with me."

Inexplicably, Jian Jing regretted not bringing a swimsuit. It was bought for Mermaid Island, and after so long, I have never had the chance to wear it once.

She followed Wu Ma down the stairs with a melancholy look and entered the fourth floor.

There are restaurants and cafes here. It is not lunchtime yet, so only the cafeteria is occupied by a few people.

At the round table by the window, three people are admiring an exquisite Easter egg.

Jian Jing: Which work have I seen this prop in?

"It is a very exquisite egg." The old man in the middle, wearing a Tang suit and gloves, carefully observed it with a magnifying glass and said slowly, "Although it is not a work of Fabergé, but an imitation of another jeweler at the same time, it is well preserved. I think it is also a good choice as an ordinary collection."

He has a badge of the monkey next to him, and looks like an appraiser.

The woman sitting next to him, with delicate makeup, said, "If you want Fabergé's work, I also have one of his cigarette cases, made in London."

She had a sheep badge on her chest, and her tone sounded like a seller.

Finally, a middle-aged man with a pig badge on his waist picked and chose: "Don't you have the famous Empire Easter eggs?"

The old man Shenhou said impartially: "They are too rare, and almost all of them are collected in museums. Even if they are privately owned, they will not be traded here."

Pig seemed to be participating for the first time, and asked immediately: "Is this trade fair so low-end? I came here because I heard that there are national treasures this time."
