Chapter 10: The Enemy's Road is Narrow
The next time is an anxious and long wait. The auction is not something you want to hold casually. First of all, there must be enough auction items. People will not deliberately make a single auction for you an emerald ring. Secondly, they also need to invite a certain number of capable buyers. If the auction items are not taken into consideration, it will not only embarrass the customer, but also affect the credibility of Rongsheng Auction House.
So both are indispensable, so the preparation time will be longer.
Until half a month later, when Zhang Yuntian's card was only 200 yuan left, Sun Ye called.
From her cheerful voice, you can tell that her emerald ring must have been sold at a high price.
"Is Mr. Zhang? I am Sun Ye from Rongsheng Auction House. Your ring is very popular. I sold it for a good price of 9.5 million! The money has been transferred to you by bank account, please check it carefully!"
9.5 million! This price is far beyond Zhang Yuntian's expectations. He thought it would be good to have 5 million, but now he really jumped from a poor man to a little rich man.
9.5 million yuan will be deducted from the 10% handling fee charged by the auction house, and then the 6.5 million promised to Sun Ye multiplied by 5% of the 325,000 yuan, and there will be 8.225 million yuan left. If this money is based on your current income level, you will have to work without eating or drinking for several lifetimes to earn.
According to the principle, 20% income tax is required for auction income, but the tax standard is different from winning the lottery.
The method of collecting taxes for auction is to subtract the commission from the actual auction, and then subtract the original price of the item, and charge according to the difference. Obviously, Zhang Yuntian chose the right auction house, and Rongsheng Auction House overestimated the original price of the ring, so Mu Feng only paid 125,000 yuan in taxes, and he still got 8.1 million yuan.
Zhang Yuntian suppressed his inner excitement and made his voice sound very calm. He didn't want to leave an uneasy impression, as this would be harmful to future auctions without any benefit.
"I understand, thank you for your success in this auction, thank you for your hard work!"
A giggle came from the other side of the phone, probably because his lips were too close to the receiver, and even the sound of breathing was clearly heard, which made people think a lot.
"Hahaha, it's not hard, this is something that should be done. I have to thank you for giving me the extra commission! To express my gratitude, I'll treat you to a meal!"
I earned more than 300,000 yuan in commission for one auction, which was almost the same as robbing the bank. Sun Ye should indeed treat him.
As the best among otaku, Zhang Yuntian instinctively wanted to reject Sun Ye, but considering that he would need to use her to remove the gem in the future, he agreed immediately.
"Okay, when?"
"It's all right now. Let's meet at the count's door! Bye bye, see you all!"
Earl is an authentic French restaurant with a large consumption. With Zhang Yuntian's previous income, it is basically impossible to eat here. The reason I have heard of it is because when I was drinking and bragging with Pan Wenbo in the past 13 years, I heard him say that now when Sun Ye mentioned it, Zhang Yuntian remembered it.
If you want to come here to eat, you have to make an appointment in advance, especially their famous snail truffle. The ingredients are all shipped by French locals, and only ten cases are available every day.
The restaurant's style is also very cool. If the guests exceed the reservation time for more than fifteen minutes, the seat will be immediately revoked and the person waiting at the door will replace you. If you want to eat, I'm sorry, continue to make an appointment. Even so, it's still full every day and full.
Thirty minutes later, Zhang Yuntian arrived at the entrance of the restaurant. The restaurant's storefront was decorated in a very elegant and unique manner. The light inside was a little dim. Through the large floor-to-ceiling glass windows, you could barely see the silver-jewelled tableware and furnishings inside, which looked very mysterious.
Sun Ye hasn't arrived yet, probably because of traffic jams. The subway is the most efficient invention in the world. There are no traffic lights, no traffic accidents, no traffic jams during morning and evening rush hour, and it goes straight and does not have to turn left and right along the road. So from this point, it is a hundred times stronger than a private car.
As for the benefits of private cars, there are so many things that need not be repeated. At least Zhang Yuntian has not realized it now. He can consider buying a car in the future. When he thinks of the scene at the entrance of the Theatre Academy, he also vaguely wants to try it in his heart.
Without making an appointment, Zhang Yuntian had to choose a seat at the waiting seat at the door and sit down.
Now that I have millions in my card, my confidence has increased a lot. If I were to be in normal times, I would just walk around such high-end places, and why would I go to places I can’t afford to spend? Are you looking for a slap in the face?
Eight million people say more or less, and less or less.
If you buy a house with a better location and a luxury car, you will probably not be able to leave anything left. If you are in a city like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, this amount of money is enough to buy a house with similar amounts, and you can't afford to decorate it.
However, if this money is stored in the bank, it is just 3% interest per year, which is 240,000 yuan. The average interest rate per month is 20,000 yuan. You can get 20,000 yuan without working all day. This kind of life was something he didn't dare to even think about before.
Zhang Yuntian shook his head. The first plan was too radical, and the second plan was too conservative. Both plans were extreme. He should plan for the long term. It was not his personality to sit down and eat the whole country.
Since what is most lacking in the end of the world is food, if you have enough money, why not set up a food factory? In this way, you can supply the past continuously in exchange for jewelry there. This is the most profitable profit model in the world!
Others make only a few times the profit at most, but they make money by themselves, but they make profits of hundreds of thousands or millions. Thinking of the few dollars of biscuits that cost nearly ten million rings, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Pan Wenbo is now a sales manager in a food factory and should have a good chat with him in two days.
"Oh, I hate it so much, why is there no place?" A girl was coquettishly tempted her boyfriend, attracting Zhang Yuntian's attention.
"I told you a long time ago that this restaurant has to be made in advance, and today is a weekend, so there must be more people, so how can it be so easy to have a seat?" The man did not accept the answer, but instead pushed the complaint back to the girl.
Zhang Yuntian was stunned when he heard the girl's voice. This voice was very familiar. Could it be. Liu Xiaolin? He used to be quite serious when he was in school, but why do he speak so sweetly now?
This is really not a matter of enemies. Liu Xiaolin is holding a middle-aged man in his forties and big belly and pooping, acting coquettishly. However, seeing this man's attitude of not understanding the charm, it is estimated that according to Liu Xiaolin's temper, the two of them will die of chatting!
Oh no! Zhang Yuntian cried in his heart. If he had known that they would appear, he would not have sat here empty-handedly!
What a pleasant thing it would be to buy a bucket of popcorn in advance, and then have a bottle of iced Coke, and watch your ex-girlfriend quarrel while eating!
"Hmph!" Liu Xiaolin was indeed about to lose her temper. She crossed her hands in front of her chest and turned her body to the side, "Since you know that I have wanted to come to this restaurant for a long time, why didn't you make an appointment in advance? I thought you could give me a surprise!"
The old man fiddled with his cell phone and lowered his head and said, "Isn't it just a meal? What's the big deal? Isn't it the same next time I come? Why don't I take you to have Thai food? I know there is a street corner where their red curry is very authentic!"
"No, I'm going to eat this restaurant today, you have to wait with me!" Liu Xiaolin refused to give in, but her tone softened.
It's boring. Zhang Yuntian thought that Liu Xiaolin would start complaining and keep turning over old accounts like usual, but he would actually become soft so quickly, and even have a little compromise.
What is this situation? This old man didn’t have a wise tongue, and did not have a handsome and elegant appearance like himself. Liu Xiaolin just compromised like this? Isn’t this like her? Is it because of money? Or because she looks like her father?
After a while, the old man used his ultimate skill. He said with a calm expression: "Then wait a moment, don't be angry. After dinner, I will take you shopping and buy a bag!"
"Well! Dear, you are so nice, so good!" Liu Xiaolin smiled happily in an instant and kissed him on the cheek.
Damn, I bought a bag last year, and I really blinded my titanium alloy dog eyes. After four years in college, I didn’t find that Liu Xiaolin is such a person. What changed her? Time? Society? Or is she like this?
But these are nothing more important. It’s a pity that a good show, but I saw someone clearly.
Liu Xiaolin and the old man were showing their love as if no one was around. After a glance, they saw Zhang Yuntian sitting in the corner. They couldn't help but get angry. Is this Zhang Yuntian a stalker? Didn't he agree to stop pestering him anymore? Why did he follow him here?
Humph, Zhang Yuntian, a poor boy, must have come here not for the sake of eating. In such a high-end restaurant, he has to eat for a month of his salary for a meal, not to mention that he is alone and comes to such a romantic place to eat by himself? Are you looking for abuse?
So she took it for granted that there was only one reason why Zhang Yuntian appeared here, which was followed by him. Perhaps he still wanted to save this relationship. No, he had to find a way to break his thoughts. If her boyfriend misunderstood what he had with him, it would be a big problem.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiaolin held her boyfriend's arm and helped him up, saying in a coquettish voice, "Dear, I saw a college classmate who had been chasing me when he was in school, but I didn't agree. He is sitting there now. Do you think I'll go over and say hello?"
When a man heard that he had a love rival, he was defeated without fighting. This had to be seen with his own eyes and showed off his might. Lanlan didn't like him and fell in love with him. What does it mean? Of course, he is more charming and more successful.
So he sorted out his clothes and straightened his back, "Oh, since he is your college classmate, it would be so rude not to say hello when he sees it. Let's go and introduce it to me!"
