Chapter 244 (1/2)

The United States.

On the west side of New York lies a huge European villa built by the river. The clear river flows slowly on the side of the villa, with leaves floating on it. It seems that the water quality is well protected. There is not only a huge open-air swimming pool, but also a tennis court and a huge garden in the villa.

But after all, it's just a villa, not to the extent of the manor. Besides, it's located near New York. Although it's a suburb, the price is not low. It's a little expensive for Berk, the chairman of Nast group, to have an exclusive golf course.

At this time, pork was painting oil paintings on the second floor of the villa. The whole studio was full of all kinds of ”works” that nobody bought for ten dollars. As an oil painting enthusiast, although pork's technology was poor, he just liked painting. When he was free, he painted and played as his main hobby.

At this time, a middle-aged man like a housekeeper came in and said respectfully, ”boss, there is a Chinese visiting outside.”

Bock stopped 'creating' after listening to it. He didn't have any expression for the housekeeper's direct disturbance. Anyway, he also broke the pot and fell. He also knew that he could draw things that no one could 'appreciate'. What else could he say and play with. There used to be a model of learning to ”have a correct attitude” and not let people disturb it, but later it was found that there was no egg use, so I paid attention to it.

Just for fun.

”Chinese? Ha ha, they like to do things like this. How many companies will come to the auction tomorrow? ” Asked pork, putting down his brush and finding a chair to sit down.

”Six.” The housekeeper replied.

”Who do you think will win the bid in the end?” Pork took a sip of cold boiled water and said with a smile.

”I think it's the Chinese.” The housekeeper thought for a moment and replied.

Poco asked curiously, ”Oh? Why do you think so? ”

”Because they have money.” The housekeeper suddenly had a smile on his face. Although the travel shopping of Chinese people is not so crazy now, it has already started to show signs. Especially for those entrepreneurs and their children studying here, it is quite heroic.

”He he, it's true that they are very straightforward in shopping. They can finally get rid of this burden. Those annoying things will give the Chinese a headache.”

”Yes, shall we have the price raised again?” The Butler suggested.

”Yes, but don't be too obvious or too high, or we will be embarrassed if we frighten others.” Pork nodded.

”I see. I'll call them in.” The housekeeper said and went out.

Later, under the guidance of the housekeeper, Liu Qian and his party entered the villa. They were all people who had seen the world and were rich. They were not surprised at the scale of the villa. If they wanted to, they could build a bigger one in the suburb of Beijing at any time.

There are many bodyguards in Bock, but no one checks whether Liu Qian has guns on them. Because they have investigated the background of all the people participating in the auction. Without the identity of the second generation of Chairen super, Liu Qian, a rich man, said that whether they can get guns or not is still a problem, so it's impossible to do anything to bock. There's no motive.

Liu Qian and Chairen take a look and shake their heads.

This is the difference between ”professional” and ”amateur”.

Who can think of someone who can bring a gun in.

A huge waiting room on the first floor.

”Hello, Mr. pork. Long time no see.” Chai Ren immediately shook hands with Berkeley.

”You know me?” Pork wondered. He thought for a moment, but he couldn't think where he had met Chai Ren.

”You may forget that you met at Sotheby's autumn antiques auction in Washington the year before last. I remember that you bought a Ming Dynasty calligraphy and painting in China, and we talked about it at the banquet afterwards.” Chai Ren said slowly.

If you don't know him, you won't come to visit. After all, this auction can't be traded privately. It's mainly to find an opportunity to meet pork again and make a friend. But he knows that this guy has a lot of assets in the world, some of them are his, some of them are other major shareholders of the company. It's good for his company's development in the future.

”I remember. It's you. Then we are old friends.” Pork laughed. He also thought of the very polite young man at that time, but he had changed a lot in the past few years.

”Yes, I want to take that iron mine this time. If your company has good minerals in the future, you can give me priority. The price is not a problem.” Chai Ren said with a smile.

”No problem. If I knew you were a big buyer, I would not hold any auction, but I can't cancel it now.” Said pork.

He previously offered $250 million to sell the mining right of the iron mine, and no one took over after looking for a circle. At last, he had to hold an auction to dispose of the original ”pit” project. Otherwise, he might lose his life.

Of course, the money for this iron mine is not paid to the country in one time, but in stages. However, I didn't expect that the situation in the country's region suddenly changed. Suddenly, a force of ”occupying the mountain as the king” came up, and many ”unreasonable demands” were put forward. If we want to continue mining, we will face huge risks, so we didn't start construction late.

More than 200 million US dollars paid in advance are also trapped there, and the government is impossible to return them, because they default first. If they fulfill the agreement, they will definitely lose a lot. Now they can sell as much as they can, but they can't use extreme means, so they have to admit defeat and leave the market.

”It's OK. It's all the same. It's just a few more competitors.” Chai Ren said indifferently. His psychological price can far exceed the estimated ceiling price of the general company. He doesn't think it is difficult to win the mine.

”Yes, I like to deal with people like you.” Pork said with satisfaction that although he said that Chai Ren was a big enemy in his heart, his gratitude was real. If it goes on, the account will not be settled. It's still the money of the bank.

”Thank you for your compliment.” Chai Ren said modestly.

Then Chai Ren kept talking with pork.
