Chapter 45 A Journey of Fate

Mo Qiong's big pearls are worth speculation, and selling them directly like him is the worst loss.

As long as there are good operating methods and packaging, the value of such a pearl can be doubled.

This is why Xiao Kun initially said he couldn't afford it, but later saw that Mo Qiong wanted to sell it directly, so he decided to take it.

It’s a guaranteed profit with no loss, so why not take it? Although packaging and hype also costs money, his family has done a lot of this and has a dedicated team to handle it.

It may take two or three years to ferment, but in the end it will definitely make a lot of money. Not only will it make money, but it will also make you famous, which will help your brand image.

Here, Mo Qiong would like to thank Zhang He.

Mo Qiong wanted to convert it into money as soon as possible, but without money and power, Xiao Kun could easily lower the price and charge according to the specifications of the jewelry. Mo Qiong might sell it for three million.

Even if Mo Qiong knew that this was definitely less, he still couldn't raise the price to six million, not to mention that Zhang He finally squeezed Xiao Kun and raised the price to seven million.

Zhang He helped Mo Qiong earn an extra four million with just a few words.

This is the benefit of having friends to help you talk.

Mo Qiong had negotiated the deal, and he would get seven million when he returned home, and he felt very happy.

When he was happy, Mo Qiong smiled at Zhang He and said, "Thank you, I'm pretty good at water. You can call me if you need it next time."

Zhang He smiled and said: "What's there to thank you for? Just treat me to a meal. I like to make friends on the sea the most. Meeting each other on the vast sea is fate."

Xiao Kun rolled his eyes and said: "After a long time, I am the one who suffers in the end? Why are you thanking him? It's just a few words. It's me who paid."

Mo Qiong smiled and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, I also want to thank the sponsor."

Xiao Kun said: "Why do I feel like I'm being taken advantage of?"

Zhang Heqie said: "Are you wrong? I may not make any profit if I take this thing for 7 million, but you will definitely make a profit if you take it. My brother will die if he takes 4 million less."

"Just tell me, how much can you earn? If this thing is turned into a treasure passed down from generation to generation, your auction house might become one of the top in Asia."

Xiao Kun snorted and said: "Do you think it is the same as drinking soup if you still have a treasure passed down from generation to generation? Without a real big shot to make a name for itself, its value will be only ten or twenty million."

"Jewelry can only be considered of high value if a buyer takes over it. Only cultural relics will not worry about buyers. If individuals don't take over, the country will take over."

"It's not enough to rely solely on hyping the added value. If you want to be among the top in Asia, you must have real cultural appeal and attract big collectors who are willing to take out their treasured antiques for auction. Otherwise, it's just a small effort."

"Especially those good things with cultural backgrounds and the essence of ancient art, there is no need to hype them too much. Some people who know the goods can easily sell them for tens of millions."

"If there is a true heirloom treasure that can be sold for more than 100 million yuan, it is a pity that I haven't come across one in several years. Last spring, 38 lots were auctioned, and only more than 200 million yuan was sold. My family is going to be in trouble. …”

However, Mo Qiong was stunned and said: "How much?"

"More than 200 million. Don't look at it. This is the total transaction price of thirty-eight items." Xiao Kun said.

Mo Qiong said: "No, I'm asking if a real heirloom treasure can be sold for 100 million?"

"That's for sure. It's said to be a treasure passed down from generation to generation. One hundred million means nothing." Xiao Kun said.

"Shouldn't cultural relics not be bought and sold? Treasures handed down from ancient times should be priceless, right?" Mo Qiong asked.

Xiao Kun smiled and said: "Cultural relics are cultural relics, and antiques are antiques. The circulation of these things is restricted. Those taken out for photography are all legal items belonging to private collections. Those that cannot be bought or sold must be dug out of the ground, and they belong to the state. Cultural relics, unless they are excavated abroad.”

"If Chinese cultural relics are discovered overseas, domestic museums will definitely try their best to buy them back. If our auction house can facilitate the return of such a cultural relic to China, it will definitely become famous and prosperous."

Then he looked at Mo Qiong and said, "Why are you asking these questions? This pearl of yours doesn't count. It's taken away from the sea. Who knows, once it's in my hands, its origin will be found in the high seas in an instant."

"Haha." Mo Qiong smiled thoughtfully.

Being on other people's boats, Mo Qiong felt that he had gained a lot of knowledge.

After getting in-depth contact with these people, I found that although Zhang He and Xiao Kun's family are not super rich, they have broad connections.

Needless to say, Xiao Kun's family owns an auction house and is also involved in many other intermediary industries, so his network of contacts is naturally very large.

Zhang He's family is engaged in investment, manages more than a dozen foundations, and holds a large number of shares in listed companies in the industrial and service industries. The path will only be bigger.

These days, the second generation of rich people have less and less pressure to take over.

Even if the older generation retires in the future, they will not hand over the industry to their children, but to a professional team of managers.

As long as they don't meddle in the company's business, they can take over smoothly, which allows them to play around leisurely without having any big evil intentions.

The Ryukyu Crown is a truly priceless treasure, and the treasures with it are definitely precious cultural relics.

It was not easy to sell at home, but Mo Qiong discovered that it was overseas and determined to find it.

But even if it is found abroad, if it is not found on the land that belongs to one's own, it still belongs to a foreign country.

It would be very troublesome for Mo Qiong to take action against him.

However, with the lessons learned from Da Zhenzhu, Mo Qiong secretly thought that he might be able to borrow Zhang He Xiaokun's path.

Mo Qiong knew very well that he had no way out. He wanted to sit on the entire treasure, but he didn't know how troublesome it would be.

Treasures are plentiful, but with his ability, what he lacks more is connections.

If he can use this Pirate King treasure to completely connect with Zhang He, Xiao Kun and others, it will be beneficial to him in many ways, and it will be easier to get good things in the future.

The benefits and risks are shared together. They get the benefits, so they will naturally handle everything about the treasure better than themselves, and they will be more proactive...

He doesn't seek fame or power, as long as he shares the profits.

In the long run, even if he only drinks some soup from the treasure this time, he will make a lot of money.

...

After mining so many pearls, everyone didn't stay for long, and they immediately left here and entered the high seas.

Along the way, they also encountered Philippine ships, but they were yachts, and as long as they didn't enter territorial waters, they would not be inspected.

After entering the high seas, because everyone was happy, they found a place to stop and lay on the deck together to bask in the sun.

Looking at the endless sea and sky, smelling the smell in the sea breeze, everyone was in a good mood.

"Xiao Mo, do you want to have a drink?" Zhang He came over in his shorts with a bottle of red wine.

Mo Qiong smiled and took a glass.

On the other side, several girls were grilling fish, which was the Spanish mackerel he had picked up when he was looking for pearls.

After drinking two sips of wine, Mo Qiong said, "Tsk tsk... Wandering freely on the sea, drinking wine in the sea breeze, grilling fish, and digging for pearls, this life is really comfortable."

"Hahaha! We are all used to it, but I didn't expect to catch pearls. You are really lucky." Zhang He said.

Mo Qiong laughed and said, "This is not my good luck. The storm last night blew the boat directly to that place. We just found a shallow place to dive. As a result, I swam down and found a large area of ​​pearl shells not far away. There was a particularly large one. I smashed it open... Tsk tsk, seven million."

"That's right, this is the surprise on the sea!" Zhang He laughed.

"Stop talking, you are so lucky. I swam for a long time, how come I didn't see it? You have 7 million, and we just make some pocket money." Xiao Kun said.

"It's up to fate. That pearl is destined to be with me. When fate comes, I will find it naturally. Zhang He, you are looking for the sea monster. Lippi can see it, isn't it also an accidental discovery?" Mo Qiong said.

Zhang He said: "What if I don't have a fate with the sea monster?"

"Uh... don't force it. I don't know if you have a fate with the sea monster, but I think I have a fate with you." Mo Qiong smiled.

"Yes, you are drifting on the vast ocean, you were sleeping, you would miss calling us for help, but we actually hit your boat, what a fate it is!" Everyone laughed.

Mo Qiong took the opportunity to say: "How about this, we turn off the navigation, drive it randomly, turn off the engine at night, drift wherever we want, catch fish and dive every day, and play for a few days as fate dictates?"

"That's a good idea! We haven't played like this before." Someone responded immediately.

Zhang He also found it interesting, so he deliberately got lost in the sea and played for a few days.

It was fate that he met Mo Qiong, and it was fate that he found Zhenzhu. This kind of aimless play, no one knows what will happen next moment on the sea, and the surprise and excitement are the favorite feelings of people who love to go out to sea.

"Okay! Let's do it this way, no matter where we go next, we will just let fate take us!"

"Let God decide where to go for us!"
