I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 186: Some things really cannot be scribbled

Arthur took the check and looked at the numbers on it. He couldn't help but smile. He had many thoughts in his mind, but he was quickly relieved that whether it was the auction house or the "collectors" who photographed those antiques, the current situation For him, it is all past tense, not important at all.

Especially the feeling of taking advantage of the compatriots seems very ridiculous. Regal overseas treasures are at most an investment approach similar to real estate speculation. Whether it is a real estate consortium or a coal boss local tyrant group, the rich have only hidden the "national treasures" they bought back in their backyards, and they took the opportunity to resell them. They must yell at their money trading and passionate games. . .

"Thank you, happy cooperation." Arthur smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the head of the auction house.

"Happy cooperation." The person in charge of the auction house also said with a smile. After shaking his hand, he took out an invitation letter from his briefcase and handed it to Arthur. He continued: "This is from our Grand Vader auction house. VIP membership card, whether you are auctioning or participating in auctions, you can enjoy commission discounts.

As well as your collections sold in powerful auction houses around the world, especially the collections sold at our Da Weide auction house, you can use our auction house as a mortgage loan. While obtaining the collection, you can also rush your own needs from time to time. "

"Oh?" Arthur had some unexpected results in the invitation letter. After opening it, I saw a card with a gold border on a black background. On it was the logo of the Grand Vader auction house, as well as the signature of the contemporary Sir Grand Vader and a series of numbers. .

For the Grand Vid Auction House, Arthur also knew that it was not only one of the world's famous art auction companies, but more importantly, its founder, Sir Parcival Grand Vid, was a very talented figure and lived his entire life. Forged an indissoluble bond with Chinese porcelain. From the first encounter with a porcelain bottle, to the bankruptcy of his family to purchase Chinese porcelain, he devoted his life to it.

Some people praised Dawei De as the greatest collector of art appreciation of the celestial dynasty in the 1920s, and he really deserves such praise. He has collected more than 1,000 pieces of Chinese porcelain, most of which are honorary items from the official kilns of the past dynasties and standard objects with important materials.

His collection basically follows the royal taste since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The quality, the high taste, and the great academic value of his collection are unmatched by other Western collectors. These fine celestial ceramics were hosted by the British Museum in 2007, and the exhibition hall was opened for permanent display in 2009. That is what Arthur said before, no matter how much money you spend, people will not sell you a real national treasure.

It has to be said that times make heroes, the achievements of Sir David Vader will ultimately benefit from the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in troubled times after the fall of the Qing Dynasty. The countless outflow of Qing palace treasures from the Forbidden City has made him and thus achieved. An unprecedented art treasure.

Although a little embarrassing, people buy it with money, even if it is depressed and angry, it is useless. Regarding the olive branch thrown by the Grand Vader auction house, Arthur nodded and smiled: "Thank you, then I will accept it and convey my gratitude to Sir Grand Vader."

"for sure..."

After a few more greetings, the person in charge of the auction house got up to leave. After Arthur watched the other person leave, he picked up the phone and notified the financial director of the investment company to let him go to his office.

Within a few minutes, the other party knocked on the door and walked in. Arthur handed the check to the other party and said: "Don this money to the Boleyn Family Foundation."

The treasurer took the check, took a look, nodded and said, "I understand, boss, I'll do it right away."

"Well, let's go." Arthur nodded and watched the other person leave. The corners of his mouth raised slightly. As a high-tax British rich, he can not learn anything else first, but reasonable tax avoidance is a skill that must be mastered, anyway. Donating to the Bolin Family Foundation also uses the money for the repair and daily use of Bolin Castle. The beneficiary is still himself. On the contrary, he can not pay a penny of personal income tax, so why not do it.

The old saying goes well, you can't eat poorly, you can't wear poorly, you can't be poor if you can't calculate it!

Picking up his cell phone, Arthur called the butler Paul. In addition to telling him the results of the auction, he also informed him that there was money in the foundation's account and he could prepare the castle repair plan.

"... This is really good news. The old earl and I had a repair plan many years ago. Unfortunately, the funds have been insufficient and have been put on hold for a long time, and the plan can finally be implemented.

Lord, my idea is to reorganize and restore the abandoned rooms in the main building. The recreation room and the wine cellar are all redecorated. . . "

Listening to the phone call, butler Paul chattered excitedly and happily, and the smile on Arthur’s face became very bright. Although Paul was only the housekeeper of their family, Paul was even more important to Arthur and his younger sister and younger brother. Watching their relatives and elders grow step by step.

In fact, this is also normal. Without feelings, how could Paul stick to the Boleyn family, especially when his predecessor was still such a bastard.

To be honest, as the most familiar person in this world, he also receives the most love from the other person. Arthur really attaches great importance to Paul and regards the other person as a family and teacher who accompanies him.

Perhaps this is the best interpretation of the British aristocratic steward—they are not the descendants of the aristocracy, but the teachers of the aristocracy.

"Hehe, Paul, the money has been credited to the account of the foundation. You have the final say on how to use it. I believe you, just do as you want. I think you already have a comprehensive plan in your mind. Right?" Arthur listened patiently for a while, and finally said with a smile.

"Of course, Lord!" Paul said in a very confident and firm tone on the phone, and then his tone became a little sad and continued: "If your father can see all this, he will be very happy and proud of you. , He has always been a proud man..."

"..." Arthur was silent, not knowing what to say. For the cheap old count, after all, he hadn't even seen him. "I think he will be happy for us in heaven. This is what he has not completed. Have a wish."

The atmosphere was a little sad, so after a few more conversations, he hung up the phone. Arthur shook his head and smiled bitterly, took a deep breath, took the phone, and called his cheap sister again, telling her about getting her. Good news for the role of "Bolin Manor".

Sure enough, Eddie was very happy with the good news. Although Arthur told her that it was not a key and important role, she still made her very happy. After all, she is now participating in some performances that are basically magical. , There is not even a character with a line.

Later, Arthur called Emilia, who was planning to return to the UK by plane at night in the US, and also told her the good news in exchange for happy laughter and Feiwen.

In the next time, Arthur sat quietly in the office and began to concentrate on creating his wonderful "Fifty Shadows of Gray", but Arthur overestimated his willpower after all, creating this , If there is no one by your side, it can be suffocated.

Therefore, Arthur didn't hold on for long, so he chose to return to the Four Seasons Hotel to continue creating. At the same time, he called Ji Li and told her that there were important things to communicate with.

Ji Li, who just had a perfect face, SPA, and enjoyed a leisure time with her friends drinking coffee, thought it was about the "surprise" she was looking forward to, so she did not hesitate to leave her friend and was sent by Arthur to pick up her bodyguard Bell Pick up.

"Boom boom——"

"Crack—"

Wearing a bathrobe, Arthur opened the door with green eyes. UU read www.uukanshu.com and looked at Ji Li standing at the door with sunglasses. The combination of red and black Lei S skirt with black high-heeled shoes, the overall look Simple and generous, inadvertently leaving a sense of maturity and xing. The deep V shape fully reveals her good figure, but there is a touch of modernity in the infinite sense of sex.

"Huh—every time I see you, I feel crowded and suffocated!" Arthur took a deep breath, and as he spoke, Ji Li walked into the guest room with a suspicious look as he stretched out his hand and didn't respond.

"Sheet!"

. . . . . .

Hearing some frustrated coquettish noises in the closed door, the two bodyguards standing at the door couldn't help looking at each other, shrugging, with a meaningful smile on their faces. I have to say, for the Yan Fu of their new boss, they I can only envy, after all, that is the dream of half of the British men, the ninth miracle!
