Chapter 2164 The Greedy Guy
“This is...the Sun and Moon Jar!”
Ben Shaming was surprised and took out a porcelain bottle from the box. It has a straight mouth, short neck, sloping shoulders and belly. Slightly bulging, shallow circle foot, concave bottom, shaped like the sun and moon.
The bottom is the end of Qianlong period. It is brightly colored and thickly coated. It is a genuine official kiln product no matter how you look at it.
He looked at it repeatedly for a moment, but saw no problem. He nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face and said: "Beautiful, really beautiful!"
The middle-aged white man and Karl, who were standing nervously beside the car, secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
Then the middle-aged white man asked with a smile: "How is it? Mr. Abel? Are you satisfied with my batch of goods?"
"So far, it seems to be very good." Ben Shamin put the porcelain bottle back and greeted several servants who came over: "Come here quickly, guys, take all these boxes out of the car, remember to be careful. Please handle it with care.”
“Okay, sir.”
These servants have been working in the Abel family for more than ten years, and they often help him with some transportation. They were already familiar with antiques. They quickly got into the car and gently moved the boxes out of the car one by one. They cooperated very well.
Ben Shaming also got out of the car, holding a magnifying glass and examining the porcelain in the boxes one by one. The more he looked at it, the more he smiled on his face.
His wife stood aside and looked at him for a few times, feeling a little disgusted, and complained to her sister-in-law: "Look at him! He never smiled like this when we got married."
"I've seen it before, but it was when I broke up with my boyfriend last time." Sister He curled his lips and complained to his sister-in-law: "He is always so macho and feels that everyone in this family should listen to him."
"Yes, yes!"
Sister-in-law. The two of them whispered to each other, and soon returned to the house holding arms.
Karl and the middle-aged white man did not leave, but stood aside to accompany them.
Ben Shaming held a magnifying glass as if no one else was watching, squatting on the ground with his butt sticking out, admiring the antiques in the box one by one.
After a full two hours, he stood up, beating his waist in pain, and groaned: "Oh... God... they are all good things. I want them. Please give me a price." Come on, sir.”
“For Carl’s sake, give me three hundred. Ten thousand dollars can take away these exquisite porcelains from ancient and mysterious China."
"It's a bit high, sir. Although these porcelains are exquisite, their market is not good. Two million, this. It’s the highest price I can offer.”
"This is impossible, Mr. Abel, I will compensate you with no underwear left for two million, maybe 2.8 million."
"I can't accept this price."
This The porcelain of the period was far less popular than the bronze ware, and it could not be sold at a high price. The two of them went back and forth, and in the end Benshaming won the car of porcelain for 2.4 million.
Then he quickly wrote the check and paid the bill happily.
"Thank you for taking care of my business, Mr. Abel. If there are any Chinese porcelain in the future, I will definitely send it to you." The middle-aged white man took the check with a smile and declined Benshamin. Invited to have dinner together, drove away in a hurry.
"Today is such a beautiful day."
Bensamin, who was having happy events one after another, was bathing in the sunset and looking at the wooden boxes piled in front of the castle. He was in a very good mood, and then hurriedly asked the servants to According to his request, these things were moved into the castle in categories. Most of them were sent to the underground collection room, and only a few that were not so precious were sent to the study.
After being busy for a while and putting everything in place, it was time for dinner.
During the dinner, Benshamin and Carl once again chatted about the private equity fund.
“Do you remember that British company called Deco Medical Devices?”
"Of course, the fund company recommended it to me a few days ago, but I'm hesitating. I think another Xelia Chemical is also very good." "Don't consider Xelia, listen to me, Benshamin, just invest." Deco, I have inside information, they are now developing an automated biochemical analysis Instrument, and it is close to success. Once it is listed, the stock price will definitely rise!”
“Is the news accurate?”
“That’s very accurate. I'll go over and take a look tomorrow."
Ben Shaming suddenly felt moved.
The fund he met through Carl was a private equity investment fund whose main business was new shares, that is, purchasing large quantities of new shares issued by newly listed companies through securities firms, with low risk and high returns.
Benshamin has known Karl for more than two months and has made a lot of money from the various inside information he gave, so he is not suspected at this time.
Immediately, he enthusiastically pulled Karl and asked about the company named Deco.
……
The next day.
Early in the morning, Benshamin took a car from his home and arrived at an office building next to the Eiffel Tower in the center of Paris.
Parked the car and walked into the office building. After a while, he took the elevator to the private equity fund company.
As soon as you entered the house, you could see that it was very busy. More than a dozen company employees were sitting at their workstations, making phone calls constantly, talking about big business deals of more than 100,000 dollars.
“You are here, Benshamin.”
A man in a suit and leather shoes came out of an office at this time. He is also a customer of this company. It is said that he is already here. I made over ten million dollars.
"Good morning, Byron." Benshaming greeted with a smile, walked up to chat with him for a while, and was soon invited into the office by a deputy manager of the company.
"Have a cup of coffee, I just made it."
"Thank you."
After delivering a cup of steaming coffee to Benshamin , the deputy manager asked: "What's the matter with you coming here so early?"
"I would like to know the current situation of the Deco medical equipment you introduced to me last time." Bensha Mingdao.
The deputy manager's eyes flickered slightly when he heard this, and then he shrugged: "It's not very good. They don't have anything worthy of praise, so many customers are not optimistic about it. Currently, only Carl and a few customers are willing to invest in them."
As he said that, he suddenly looked suspicious: "I remember you were not interested in them before, why did you suddenly Asked about this? Don’t you have any inside information with Karl?”
“It’s nothing, it’s just that I am suddenly more optimistic about the medical industry.” Benshaming shook his head quietly and asked: "So, how many shares of Deco are still unsubscribed?"
"Is it really true?" The deputy manager still had doubts on his face.
Ben Shaming immediately frowned in feint of anger: "Sir, whether there is or not, this has nothing to do with you, right? You just need to answer my questions now. If you behave like this again Unprofessional, I hope someone else can talk to me!”
"Okay, okay, don't be angry, I'm just asking casually, Deco, right? I'm going to check it out, please wait." The deputy manager stood up hurriedly, came out of the room, and walked in next door.
"Took the bait?" Yao Conggu was sitting in the room drinking tea. He was still shaking a broken fan in a suit, which looked a bit nondescript.
"Yes, sir." The deputy manager stepped forward with a smile on his face and said: "He directly asked how many shares Deco still has. It seems that he wants to package it up."
"Greedy guy." Yao Conggu folded the fan, sat up straight, squinted his small eyes, pondered for a moment, and said: "Just settle on 21 million."
