Lei Tiantang is still very happy for the support of the mainstream media. He took the time to accept an interview with the Associated Press and expressed his gratitude to these people. Of course, he also expressed special gratitude for the support of President Trump of the United States, regardless of others. What is the reason to support him? It is always a good thing. After all, such a large number of treasures were auctioned in such a short period of time. Of course, the more the publicity, the better, although there is almost no media supporting Trump.

Trump is also a funny comparison. He is a typical businessman, but he became the president of a big country under the wonderful system of the United States. Without any ruling experience, he still uses his business as a businessman to govern the country after becoming president. He has to pay more than half of the responsibility for the chaotic situation in the U.S. Empire. He does not have a global mindset and pursues an isolation policy, so he often makes jokes. However, people are very trustworthy and promise voters to repair the U.S.-Mexico border wall. People would rather the government take a long time. Close the door and ask Congress to give him money to fix it, although the main reason for this is to seek votes to gain an advantage in the re-election vote.

　　 Of course, these are the things Lei Tiantang thought in his heart. He couldn't tell the reporter these things. Of course, he told the reporters some good things. Everyone will carry it! Of course, the most important thing is to continue to promote his own treasures. For reporters to ask about his privacy, he just prevaricates. He just let the reporters dig out his own domestic company and let them know that his company sold a lot of high High-quality graphene has also promoted its own domestic companies.

　　 In addition, the reporter continued to question any money he spent. Of course, he mentioned the observatory construction that he had only thought of in these two days, and said that he would purchase research equipment from the United States. Of course, his domestic companies also need to expand, and they also need to purchase a lot of research equipment and production equipment, which cost a lot of money, and it is estimated that there is not much money left to pay taxes to the United States.

　　 But Americans don’t care how much taxation they pay. As long as you spend the money on the Americans, they are satisfied, and the country legally supports this.

Time soon came to the auction day. Lei Tiantang took Keira, Powell and others to the Sotheby’s auction house. Alex personally received them and arranged them before leaving. He today They are also very busy. They are all big customers, and he has to personally receive each one.

　　 Time slowly came to nine o'clock in the morning. With the hammer of the auctioneer, the special auction house for sunken ship treasures officially began! The first to be auctioned was a set of gold antique artworks. The exotic artworks on the tray immediately attracted the attention of buyers. There is no human being who dislikes these shiny gold objects, so the price rises quickly. The bidding sounds one after another. Fortunately, the auctioneer is very professional and can accurately hear the highest bid every time. Finally, this group of artworks was bought by desert tyrants at a price of 7 million U.S. dollars, and there was a round of applause at the auction site.

The next auction process was even more climax. Pieces of art, groups of gold and silver coins were all auctioned out at a high value. When the gem auction came, it was even more enthusiastic. Local tyrants and jewelry Merchants began to offer prices one after another, because the gems on the auction were all selected, and all of them were top quality, so they were very attractive.

During the whole auction process, there was not a single treasure that went unsold. Lei Tiantang was very satisfied with this. It shows that Sotheby’s Auction House has done a lot of work. Of course, they are also working hard for themselves, because they have 5% of them. Commission! ! In the end statistics, only these selected artworks and gems were auctioned for 670 million U.S. dollars, far exceeding the valuation of 500 million U.S. dollars. Lei Tiantang is very happy, which means that his total income will be a big one. Excluding the auction house’s commission, there are still more than 630 million!

I made a simple handover with the auction house. The money is not available for the time being. It is estimated that the account should be available tomorrow. Anyway, there is nothing to worry about in this regard. With the help of Alex, Lei Tiantang and a family of jewelry The merchant reached a deal, and they bought all the jewels left by Lei Tian Tang that were not very high quality. You must know that although these jewels did not reach the auction level, the quality was also very good. The things that are pulled are definitely selected and pulled back, so the value of these gems is still very high, plus the quantity is there, these gems have sold a total of 120 million US dollars.

Powell and the others were very excited. The price was beyond their prediction range. After dealing with the matter here, Lei Tiantang went to Wells Fargo Bank and traded with Wells Fargo about the remaining large chunks of gold and silver. Because of purity, everyone has been negotiating the price in terms of valuation, but the price is now relatively transparent~lightnovelpub.net~ so the differences are not big. Lei Tiantang’s current harvest has exceeded expectations. So he no longer entangled with Wells Fargo about the multi-million dollar price difference, and quickly concluded a deal with them, earning a total of 1.892 billion US dollars!

In this way, the amount of US dollars obtained by Lei Tiantang in this treasure reached 2.6488.5 million, exceeding the previously estimated 2.4 billion US dollars and more than 200 million US dollars. He has also become a super customer of Wells Fargo Bank, and the level and scope of services are also Expanded a lot.

In the bank's office, Lei Tiantang is responsible for writing checks, and Powell and John are responsible for checking him. This time the distribution of bonuses is basically evenly distributed. The exploration company now includes security personnel, including Powell and John, a total of 194 Personally, he first eliminated the 4.85 million U.S. dollars, and then on average everyone could get 1.34 million U.S. dollars! Everyone is really a millionaire! Even after paying taxes, it still exceeds one million!

As for the removed 4.85 million, Lei Tiantang gave Powell and John 500,000 each, and then 2 million points to the company’s management. The remaining 1.85 million was evenly distributed to the company’s 16 divers. After all, they went to sea in danger. Salvage operations are worth raising for them! The total bonus of these 16 divers reached more than $1.45 million! !

　　 I believe that everyone has no objection to the distribution of this bonus. Just watch Powell and John check the check with a smile! For Keira and Mirissa, because they are not employees of the company, Lei Tiantang could not distribute the bonus to them, but he also prepared gifts for them at the awards ceremony, which were made-to-order gems selected from the treasures. Lei Tiantang arranged for his jewelry a few days ago, and it will be fine to let John go and retrieve it later.
