Hello 1983

Finally, when the grand finale came on stage, the auctioneer raised his voice a bit:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the last item in this auction is unique in the world. It is the team flag of the Island Nations United Team during World War II."

"Currently, there is only one joint flag left in the world, which is kept in the island country; and this flag is the only one that has been preserved intact. We will conduct an auction with no reserve price. Please bid below!"

Chapter 326 The Final Price

In the treasure cave of Doubao Mountain, Liu Qingshan discovered this alliance flag, and then entrusted Hong Yunsheng to operate it, and now it's finally time to harvest it.

Since the islanders are now rich and powerful and can buy all over the world, they must not be stingy with the alliance flag that symbolizes the glory of their former empire, right?

If you want to say the real value of this thing, everyone knows that it is not worth a lot of money.

But the value of some things is not reflected in the item itself, but in other values ​​attached to it, such as history, culture, and national self-esteem.

Once upon a time, the auction of animal heads in Yuanmingyuan was a big deal.

Since other people can play like this, of course Liu Qingshan would not mind cheating the little devil for a sum of money, and then use this money for business development. Is this what people often say, the cycle of heaven?

After the auctioneer announced the start, Liu Qingshan held up the number plate with a smile and said loudly, "I will offer one pound!"

Then he added in English: "In my hometown, there is a fairy cave in which a group of wild monkeys live. I am going to buy this flag back. I guess those monkeys will be happy to fly this flag and call themselves kings in the mountains." of."

These words caused a snicker at the scene, and of course there was a cold snort.

The auctioneer was also taken aback for a moment, and then said tactfully, "Sir, please pay attention to your words."

Of course, it was just an understatement to remind, after all, as soon as these words were said, the eyes of the people of the archipelago would turn red, and they would definitely rush to bid, and the auctioneer was so happy.

But what was unexpected was that even though the archipelago people breathed fire from their eyes and smoke from their noses, they all kept their mouths tightly shut, and none of them bid.

This posture is obviously to be boycotted collectively.

To put it bluntly, this thing is really useless to others, and it's too dirty to use as a poop.

And if the islanders don't bid, then the price will definitely be greatly reduced. Maybe it will be a big joke as the finale lot.

For the same reason, those Westerners here are not interested in this thing.

During World War II, the battlefields of island nations were mainly in East Asia and South Asia.

If it was replaced by the item of the madman in Germany, it is estimated that these Westerners will definitely feel like they have been beaten.

The consequence of this situation is that after Liu Qingshan bid one pound, Brick was thrown out, but Meiyu was not attracted.

It was a bit chilly at the scene.

The auctioneer was a little overwhelmed and could only keep asking: "Is there any bid?"

Hong Yunsheng also became nervous: If this item fails to be auctioned, it will be a waste of work.

Liu Qingshan didn't care, he was too aware of the tricks: even after the auction, there would definitely be private transactions.

Could it be that the people of the island country can really watch helplessly as this alliance flag is held up by a group of wild monkeys, roaring through the mountains and forests?

Then if Liu Qingshan took a photo and sent it out, it is estimated that there will be many people in the island country lining up to have their caesarean section collectively.

"Ten thousand pounds!"

Finally someone broke the embarrassment.

Liu Qingshan looked over, but it was the middle-aged man with a parted hair, and the Huo family made a move.

It is obviously useless for their family to ask for this thing, so it should just show their attitude.

A red businessman can't call for nothing.

Immediately, some people started to join in the cheers, all from Hong Kong Island, and the price rose rapidly, exceeding one million pounds in no time.

This also made the auctioneer secretly heave a sigh of relief, and began to shout harder.

Hong Yunsheng also breathed a sigh of relief. A small businessman like him has never seen such a big scene, and his ability to bear it is very limited.

On the other hand, the people from the island country still didn't make any bids, and all sat quietly with glaring eyes, as if they were here to demonstrate.

"I'll offer 150 million pounds!" Finally, a Westerner started to bid, and soon someone shook his old background out.

This is a hawker from the United States. His ancestors served in Pearl Harbor and died there.

In this way, the intention of this person is very obvious. After the photo is taken back, it is definitely not for collection.

Even if Liu Qingshan's trick of pulling the flag to the monkey can't be done, there must be other nonsensical ways to insult.

"160 million!"

Another person started to increase the price. This is a yellow-skinned man with a short stature. He looks like he should be from South Asia. Anyway, many countries there have also been invaded in the past.

This kind of ethnic hatred may slowly fade over time, but it will never disappear.

"180 million!" Liu Qingshan finally shot again.

His bid this time obviously stimulated the group of islanders, and they were finally dragged into the quagmire abruptly.

And once you get into the quagmire, it's hard to get out.

Many people who had been watching from the sidelines also began to enter the arena one after another, like a famous sniper, fighting for each other, so lively.

The climax that the auctioneer was looking forward to finally arrived. The price of this United flag was raised to 500 million pounds in just a few minutes, as if on a rocket.

"Hehe, it's like getting more help than being right, and it's hard for a little devil not to lose money now." Liu Qingshan said to Hong Yunsheng with a smile.

After instigating the flames of war, he withdrew, because the battle situation was too intense, and there was no need for him to add fuel to the fire.

Hong Yunsheng was completely relieved at the moment, and at the same time, there was a sense of admiration, which spontaneously arose.

Looking at the young people talking and laughing happily around him, Hong Yunsheng could only sigh in his heart: Is the golden scale a thing in the pool, it can turn into a dragon when it encounters a storm!

"Sixty million pounds!"

Mitsuki roared out the price with a ferocious face. He looked like he was going to eat people.

But who can sit here, who is too scared, if you don't seize this opportunity and kill your opponent, how can you be worthy of the crimes that the little devil committed back then?

"800 million!"

"820 million!"

"850 million..."

Looking at it, the price is running towards tens of millions of pounds.

Mitsui Ki's eyes were also tearing, and he wondered: Is this thing useful to you?

But he couldn't back down. When he came, the consortium had already ordered him to die, and he had to take the alliance flag back intact. Mitsuki didn't want to apologize in the end.

Then you can only grit your teeth and charge, isn't it just money, you guys can be killed if you smash it!

"Qingshan, it's over ten million!"

Hong Yunsheng waved his fist vigorously.

He was lucky enough to witness the birth of a multi-millionaire.

Hissing, Hong Yunsheng took a deep breath: Is this the richest man in the Mainland?

Even if it wasn't, he would be able to rank up after all, right?

The smile on Liu Qingshan's face became brighter and brighter, and the price has also greatly exceeded his expectations.

At the beginning, because I hated this thing, I almost burned the flag with a fire, but fortunately I didn't have the impulse.

Although he still looked calm on the surface, but in his heart, he had already started to sing:

There are no guns, no cannons, the enemy made them for us, we have no food or clothing, and the enemy comes forward, no money, no money, and the little devils come forward...

A crisp sound interrupted his imagination, only then did Liu Qingshan realize that the auction had ended, and the final price was set at 150 million pounds.

This price is really crazy enough. You must know that in this era, Van Gogh's masterpiece Lavoux portrait was only auctioned for more than 700 million pounds, and Picasso's works were only worth 200 million pounds.

Similar to the ending of many auctions during this period, it was the upstart islanders who had the last laugh.

The difference is that in the past they were all complacent, but this time, their faces were full of frustration and anger.

Very happy, hahaha.

Many people present wanted to laugh three times, but due to their status, they could only secretly laugh in their hearts.

According to the usual practice, the audience should be applauding at this moment, but today's atmosphere is a bit weird, no one applauds, instead, there are some gloating laughter, whispered.

clap clap!

Very abrupt applause, suddenly sounded.

I saw a handsome young man standing up from his seat, clapping his hands rhythmically. If he also had a toothpick in his mouth, he would probably be able to catch up with Fa Ge.

It was only then that the others booed and applauded. Such applause definitely did not include congratulations or praise.

The sound was like steel needles, irritating the nerves of Mitsuki and the others. They stood up suddenly and left angrily.

Liu Qingshan felt Mitsuiki's murderous gaze, but he met his own gaze indifferently: I don't agree, you bite me?

He knew that such a thing could not be concealed at all.

The source of this alliance flag, as long as the opponent goes back and checks the historical files, the target can be locked.

That being the case, why should he back down, don't humiliate his opponent, really think that our state of etiquette only talks about etiquette?

A big show finally came to an end, and it was past twelve noon.

Walking out of the auction hall, the sun was shining outside, and the smile on Liu Qingshan's face was even brighter.

"Mr. Liu, congratulations, if you have time, please drink tea."

Someone around greeted him, it was the big part of the Huo family. For some people, there are no secrets in this world.

Liu Qingshan also nodded with a smile: "Thank you, I should invite you."

Amidst the loud laughter, they went their separate ways, and many people looked at Liu Qingshan inquiringly: Whose family's disciple is this, who is actually favored by First Young Master Huo?

At this time, there is no need to make a high profile. Liu Qingshan followed Hong Yunsheng and got into the car. Although the payment has not been settled yet, this time he is destined to return with a full reward.

It was this amount of money, which was much more than he expected, and he didn't want to take all of it back.

He even planned to use the name of borrowing money from Hong Yunsheng to contract the mountain forest. Although there is no such thing as a huge amount of property with unknown origins these days, there are more serious problems of its nature than this.

As for the rest of the funds, Liu Qingshan quickly made an arrangement: just use the investment company to enter the stock market in the United States to make money. Anyway, Lao Mi's money is not for nothing.

Anyway, before the famous Black Monday in the stock market in [-], it was not easy to lose money.

What's more, he also knows bullish stocks such as Apple and Microsoft.

By the way, Microsoft is not yet listed at this time, and that Mr. Bill is still working hard to become a millionaire.

And a key link here also involves his second sister Liu Yinfeng.

The last time I received a letter home from my second sister, it mentioned the matter of studying abroad. Under the influence of the trend of studying abroad, my second sister seemed to have this idea.

Then in the coming year, I will help my second sister operate it and go to study in the United States. She is a student of economics and has a lot of money to use to practice. I guess my second sister will be very happy.

Even if he can't become a government-sponsored overseas student, as long as Liu Qingshan asks Thomas to help with the operation there, it is still not a problem to study abroad at his own expense.

In the second year after returning, Liu Qingshan's tentacles finally quietly extended to the other side of the ocean.

Chapter 327 Hello, 1985

"Qingshan, you didn't visit the factory this morning. It's a huge loss. You didn't see it. The factory here, whether it is technology or management, is called modernization!"

At the lunch table, people like Secretary Wang and Director Zhou who thought they had opened their eyes couldn't stop talking.

While busy eating and drinking, while busy talking.

loss?

Hong Yunsheng blinked his eyes twice, feeling amused in his heart: You don't know how much Qingshan has gained this morning.

The visit continued in the afternoon, and Liu Qingshan continued to be absent. He met with Victor, the French partner, and expressed his sincere thanks.

At the auction, whether it was Victor who went off in person, or the "Yangtuoer" he found, they all played a very good role in helping.

That's right, Victor arranged for the American tycoon whose ancestors died in Pearl Harbor. This guy is very skilled at playing this game now.

For the remaining few days of inspection, Liu Qingshan didn't show up either. If he hadn't wandered outside the system, he would have been criticized by Secretary Wang long ago.

The opportunity to study abroad is so rare, why don't you know how to cherish it?
