章 445: Chapter 445: Unable to Take Advantage
The bid for $40 million was an old acquaintance, Rick, who obviously couldn't wait.
After raising the price, Rick did not immediately put down the bid number plate, but interrupted Anthony's auction process and continued loudly:
"Ladies and gentlemen, good morning everyone, I have a few words to say, so I have to take the liberty to interrupt the auction process and please forgive me!
My name is Rick and I am the mayor of Dawson City, Canada. These two serve in the Canadian Ministry of Mines. They are Jeff and Statham. I am glad to meet you all!"
Rick introduced himself first and was very polite.
At this time, everyone looked at Rick and them and many people felt very surprised and puzzled!
It's rare to interrupt auctions rashly! What courage do these Canadians have? Aren't they afraid that Sotheby's auction house will blast them out?
People who understood the grievances between Rick and Ye Tian roughly guessed what these Canadians wanted to do and they all watched the show enthusiastically.
The faces of several Sotheby's executives at the scene were very ugly and they were all green!
If it wasn't for Rick to reveal his official identity as soon as he came up, Sotheby's Security might have begun to bombard people and threw these troublesome Canadians out of the auction hall!
As soon as the opponent came up, they revaled the Canadian Ministry of Mines identidy, which made Sotheby's senior executives a little bit jealous. They were ready to look at the situation first and then make a decision!
Ye Tian also froze for a moment and then sneered.
Interesting! Let's see what tricks these guys can play!
He didn't say anything to stop him and raised his hand to signal auctioneer Anthony to stay safe, then turned around and watched Rick's performance with interest, with a sneer of disdain!
After introducing himself, Rick immediately continued:
"The reason why we came to New York today to participate in this auction is entirely for this nugget's gold. We want to take this nugget's gold and bring it back to Canada!
Everyone knows that this rare piece of gold came from Dawson, Canada. It is a treasure of Dawson City, a treasure of Yukon and a well-deserved Canadian national treasure! "
Everyone at the scene nodded and there is no objection to this point.
No one interrupted Rick, keep listening!
"Since this piece of gold nugget came out, we have been in contact with Steven and we are doing all kinds of efforts to try to keep this rare piece of gold nugget in Dawson, Canada!
Unfortunately, we and Steven have never reached an agreement, so this piece of gold was taken to New York and was send to the New York autumn auction by Steven.
The real destination of this nugget gold should be in Canada. In Dawson City, it has become the common wealth of Canadians, not the private collection of a certain collector!
Here, I implore everyone to hold your hands high and let us take this piece of nugget gold and bring it back to Canada. I know this request is a bit excessive, but I still ask everyone to understand and support it!"
Rick's words are sincere and touching! Many women at the scene began to nod in agreement, apparently agreeing with Rick's words.
But the eyes of buyers who are ready to compete for this piece of gold nugget flashed a little disdain.
What about Canada's national treasure? They don"t care that is national treasure, they still want take down it!
Everyone at Sotheby's looks even more ugly and everyone is annoyed!
Thinking of this, Larry, the head of the jewelry department, immediately took a step forward, ready to go crazy!
However, he was a step late and was preempted by others!
While everyone was still thinking about Rick's words, Ye Tian's voice suddenly sounded and it clearly spread to everyone's ears.
"Hello everyone, I'm Steven, I am the owner of this piece of nugget gold, I have no doubt about the ownership of this piece of nugget gold, I believe everyone present is very clear.
This piece of gold was indeed found in Dawson, Canada. It is a treasure of Dawson City. It is also worthy of the title of Canadian National Treasure, but it is just my personal Canadian National Treasure.
Rick is an old friend of mine. They have always wanted to buy this nugget and bring it back to Canada. Unfortunately, we have never reached an agreement on the price."
"The canadians are your old friends? You are so embarrassed to say! Goes lie to others! They are afraid all of these Canadians hate you for not dying!"
Many people at the scene were making complaints secretly and a smile flashed across their faces.
After a short pause, Ye Tian continued to smile and said loudly:
"Since I sent this gold nugget to the New York autumn auction, it is to give everyone a fair chance to compete. If you want this gold nugget, then participate in the bidding, the higher price is the winner!
I also welcome Rick and the Canadian Ministry of Mines to participate in the bidding. If you want to get this gold nugget, there is only one way to win and is bidding with a placard and there is no other choice!
Whether the rest of the buyers on the scene will raise their hands high, I don't care and I won't mind. If other competitors really do that, then I'm going to congratulate you, Rick!
But I want to remind that there is a reserve price for this gold nugget and it is very high. If the final bid is lower than the reserve price, then no one can take this gold nugget, it is still mine!
That's all I have to say! The auction will continue. I hope there will be no interruption. That is not suitable. I hope everyone can get what they want and take this rare piece of nugget!"
After speaking, Ye Tian immediately turned around and looked at the auction stand, waiting for the auction to start again and didn't bother to talk to Rick and the others.
Want to take advantage of him? No doors!
The auction did not continue immediately and the scene was too noisy.
Everyone was shocked by Ye Tian's remarks and then they began to discuss in full swing and the auction hall was buzzing.
"This group of Canadians wishful thinking is about to come to nothing. Steven has always been the one taking advantage. When did he suffer? If they want to take advantage of Steven, it's harder than going to heaven!"
"The guy Steven really set the reserve price. I don't know how much it is? 50 million dollars? 60 million dollars? Or higher?"
"With Steven's consistent cruelty, the reserve price is absolutely high! How could he miss the opportunity to rob the super-rich?"
Rick and the others in the crowd are very ugly at this time, with purple in the black! The eyes are red and the nose is about to smoke out!
For Ye Tian, the three of them gritted their teeth with hatred and cursed in a low voice!
"Fuck! This is the most greedy bastard I have ever seen! He won't let go of a dollar!"
"He's cruel! Sinister and cunning! How is this a human being! He's just a devil!"
Rick and the others are already overwhelmed with darkness, they can't see a ray of sunshine or a ray of hope at all!
They all understand very well that the hope of winning this piece of nugget today is very slim, almost nothing!
What they can use to compete with the gold giants and super-rich? The budget is limited!
Even if the budget is sufficient, if they want to win this nugget gold, they will definitely have to pay a huge price!
God knows what the auction reserve price is? Steven that bastard is so greedy!
Not only are they guessing the auction reserve price for this piece of gold, but everyone else in the auction hall is also guessing, what is the auction reserve price set by the guy Steven?
Guess what prices are available! Some are even exaggerated, even Ye Tian dare not think about it!
Especially those buyers who are ready to compete for this piece of gold nugget, everyone's complexion is very solemn.
If they want to win this piece of gold nugget today, they have to bleed heavily. Who would let this piece of gold nugget be from the bastard of Steven! Can't avoid being slaughtered!
The auction hall became a little quieter and Anthony's voice immediately came again, still full of passion, still very loud and speaking fast!
"Ladies and gentlemen, the episode is over and the auction continues. Just now Mr. 139 bid 40 million US dollars, a friend from Canada! Thank you for joining us!
The current price is 41 million US dollars, 41 million US dollars, which lady or gentleman should offer? This is a national treasure of Canada. Don't miss the opportunity you have!"
Anthony is now learning and selling and directly used Rick's words. He was not polite at all and his tone was a bit sarcasm.
What Rick and the others did made the Sotheby's auction house very upset. Now they have a chance, of course, they have to take a little revenge!
Hearing Anthony's words, Rick and the others rolled their eyes in anger and cursed in a low voice.
"Fuck! Damn Yankees, they are a bunch of rude and savage bastards!"
Anthony's voice just fell and someone in the audience immediately raised a placard to bid.
"42 million dollars, Anthony!"
It's from the Newmont Gold Company in the United States, and an old friend!
