Blackstone Code Chapter 793: 1 million

"For the first time..."

"Second time..."

"Third time, congratulations... Mr. got this item!"

The gavel in the auctioneer's hand falls quickly and accurately, and charity fundraising auctions are not quite the same as serious auction house auctions.

Generally speaking, in charity fundraising auctions, except for a few people who may not be used to it, or people who attend such a party for the first time will make mistakes, normally people will not really compete for a certain item. .

Everyone will send an item to the auctioneer for auction, and then bid a price to buy the item. There will be no competition, so the auctioneer does not need to mobilize everyone's emotions, as long as the whole process ends quickly. .

Penny gradually discovered some of these clues after watching items that might be valuable or that she didn't see any value selling for astonishing prices one by one.

"Have you been playing like this all the time?" she asked in a low voice.

The fact that Lynch brought her to the party today was an eye-opener for her, and this special fundraising auction made her feel very fresh, apart from those who are usually hard to meet.

Lynch ignored her. She was talking all night, like a curious baby, sometimes asking why this was why, and then asking why.

Lynch was able to answer her questions at first, but soon became too lazy to answer.

Because she had just answered a question, she had a new question.

The auction starts from the back row and then gradually moves forward, with the heavyweights often placed last.

Soon they were on Lynch's side, and the waiter stood beside Lynch with a red flannel tray in his hand.

Lynch took out a lighter from his pocket and put it on it. He briefly explained its use, its value and some features. The waiter listened carefully and left quickly.

"I thought you guys would be ready in advance." Penny was still curious, "What if any of you didn't bring these things?"

"Will someone prepare some things in advance and send them over, such as some oil paintings?"

"The real estate is actually quite suitable..."

Lynch sighed and turned to Penny, "You're wearing at least shoes, right?"

Penny curled her lips. She didn't understand the thoughts of these big people at all. In her opinion, such a party should be handled very seriously. All preparations should be made a few days or even weeks in advance. Everyone is looking forward to this moment.

But... the enthusiasm she had prepared for it quickly cooled down, and no one bid. It was an auction, which was more like a boring and ordinary fundraising.

It's not what she imagined!

In fact, Penny's understanding of this matter is fundamentally wrong. Fundraising and charity events like this, whether auctions or charity, are not the core, only fundraising is the core.

As for how to raise funds, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that the money is in place.

It is meaningless to prepare in advance. It is meaningless to prepare too well. Instead, it is better to "donate" a personal item casually, and then spend money to buy it back, which saves time and energy for each other.

As for why it is not directly fundraising in the form of fundraising, but auction is adopted, that is because the tax exemption amount that can be obtained by auction and fundraising is different!

Yes, Mr. and Mrs. President are so considerate. When they take money from everyone's pockets to put money on their faces, they don't forget to do enough work for everyone to get more tax exemption.

"This is an exquisite lighter donated by Mr. Lynch. It is handmade by a famous master. The interior is made of high-purity handmade brass body, which is strong and corrosion-resistant. The outer shell is made of pure gold. and inlaid with eighty-eight precious stones of various colors."

As the auctioneer spoke, he turned on the lighter, and the metallic tremor was heard throughout the venue!

A good lighter, at least according to the auctioneer's presentation and its performance.

"The original price of this lighter is around 50,000 Federal Sol, and the starting price is 50,000. Everyone can bid..."

Penny sat on the side and stuck out her tongue, her pink tongue flashed between her lips. She didn't expect a lighter to be so expensive!

God, she is now paid about the same price for a movie. She knows that Lynch has a lot of similar lighters, and when she thinks of this, her mind is a little dizzy.

She asked herself a question—what are you doing so hard?

Isn't it bad to lie down and win?

Of course, no one can answer this question, and she can't either. Sometimes it's not so easy to lie down and win.

Lynch raised his hand, "One million...", with a warm smile on his face, "This lighter has been with me for a long time, I have a very special feeling for it, and at the same time I feel that Ba Mrs. Barra's initiative, we really need to do something within our ability for this society, I hope everyone will not compete with me, thank you!"

He said these words, on the one hand, to make fun, and on the other hand, to avoid people making trouble.

It's not that no one has made trouble at such an auction. For example, if someone wants to flatter Lynch, or ask him, they will donate the money instead of Lynch.

It's obviously a good deal to spend 50,000 yuan to photograph this thing in exchange for Lynch's favor!

The purpose of Lynch's words was to prevent the possibility of such a situation.

If someone does that, bidding against each other, it's actually a shame.

Fortunately, no one wanted to test Lynch with a million dollars. Those who could come were not poor people. After the auctioneer made tens of thousands of quick beeps, the gavel was settled.

Lynch had prepared a cashier's check from the bank and placed the cashier's check on the red velvet tray while the waiter brought his lighter back.

One million promissory notes, issued by Jinhui Bank, can be directly exchanged for one million cash at any bank.

The promissory note is also one of the financial instruments most often used by capitalists besides checks.

When we got here, the price of the auction suddenly increased a lot. No matter what they did, the people in the back couldn't give less than Lynch.

Mr. President looked towards Lynch and nodded slightly. Lynch knew what he meant and thanked himself.

A fundraising of one million is also a fundraising, and a fundraising of ten million is also a fundraising. If the wife of the president cannot raise a large number, the face of the president will not be saved.

Even if the people behind them are hovering around one million, this auction can raise almost 20 million, which is enough to make Mr. President and Mrs. President a big boost in the media.

Some people in the front row also glanced back at Lynch at this time. Compared with Lynch's previous bid of hundreds of thousands, two or three hundred thousand, Lynch raised the price several times in one go.

Compared to everyone's normal eyes, the eyes of the two young Duncan family members seemed less polite.

"He shouted the price too high, it's beyond our plan!"

The speaker was the leader of the younger generation of the Duncan family. After he took his unsalty gaze from Lynch's face, he looked at the elder brother beside him and complained in a low voice.

Originally, their plan was to donate 500,000 yuan, but 600,000 yuan is almost the same. Now, it seems that it will be at least 1 million yuan.

The Duncan family is one of the most powerful families in the Federation, and their family glory does not allow them to be confused with those "lower families".

Lynch donated 1 million, and they would donate 1.5 million or even 2 million to show the status and momentum of the Duncan family.

Sitting next to him, the young man he called "Big Brother" had an incomprehensible smile on his face, "It's not a lot of money, just donate it."

He glanced sideways at the young man beside him, "If a big family has the bearing of a big family, we should donate two million..."

The young man nodded and stopped talking.

The auction continued at this pace. Mr. Wardrick donated his tie clip and bought it back for $1.2 million. Lynch bid the price too high, and he didn't intend to spend it. so much money.

Mr. Patou donated Anna's diamond hairpin, which he also bought back for 1.2 million.

Everyone follows a rule that does not require communication. In the upper class, this kind of rule is everywhere. Many people rashly entered the upper class with a little luck, but they couldn't use it.

It seems that there is an invisible wall around them, which firmly restricts their behavior. This is the disadvantage of not having a foundation, and even some of the most superficial rules cannot be grasped.

In the end, the normal charity fundraising ended with the Duncan family spending 2 million to buy a watch. The President's wife excitedly stated the total amount raised, which was an amazing number.

At least it was more than twice as high as she expected~IndoMTL.com~ And all of this was because of Lynch's random shouting, he disrupted the ascending order of prices, so that the people behind had no choice but to out more money.

A two million yuan, topped by donations from a dozen people in front of me.

The president's wife knew who to thank, but she didn't show it right away. Excessively thanking Lynch at this time, or focusing on Lynch, would only provoke some potential hostility for him.

After the party ended successfully, Mr. President and Mrs. President had a special exchange with him when they saw off the guests and sent them to Lynch.

"In two days, on the weekend, I hope you are free. I will hold a barbecue party in my back garden. Are you free?"

Lynch has helped Mr. President and Mrs. President a lot, and they should repay Lynch as they should. For example, they will obviously enhance their relationship and contact with each other, and then talk about the distribution of benefits in the future.

"It's an honor, I happen to have a collection of the best wine, and I will take it with me when the time comes." He agreed very happily.

Mr. President stretched out his hand and shook Lynch again, "Then I'll wait for you, come early, we can chat!"

"Definitely!"

After the two said goodbye to Mr. President and Mrs. President, they just came out and met Mr. Wardrick.

He was chatting with the two in a low voice. When he saw Lynch coming over, he ended the conversation with the others and looked at Lynch, "Chat?"
