Chapter 129 128. Auction Preparations

At the end of April, Christie's Bell-430 helicopter flew to Sunset Town again, and Adams walked down with a group of subordinates, a total of eight people, each of whom was capable of being unique in the auction industry.

They came to the town this time to prepare for the auction.

In the past, auctions were usually held in five-star hotels, so that it was convenient to arrange for the VIPs present to rest. However, this auction is a special auction for antiques collected by the Roberts family. Adams and Wang Bo negotiated and held it in the castle.

The antiques were discovered from the Jazz Castle, and they have stayed here for a hundred years, so it is undoubtedly more appropriate to come back here for auction.

In addition, the castle has a temperament similar to that of an antique, and it is considered a super large antique in itself, which can add some gimmicks to the auction.

Wang Bo is very willing to take on the important task of holding the auction, because he knows that all the people who come to the auction are rich and powerful, and it is definitely a good thing for the town to have a relationship with these people.

The preparation time for this auction is not long, only about a month.

However, Christie's is the top auction house in the world after all. Adams explained to Wang Bo on the phone, saying that all the rich people who are interested in these antiques should be notified.

Adams and his party arrived first, followed by a convoy. Christie's hired a team of international security companies to be responsible for security work, and also brought an excellent team of chefs and waiters.

This is the courage of the top antique companies. Just hiring security and other service personnel, they spent more than two million New Zealand dollars, which made Lao Wang speechless.

Wang Bo came up to greet the group and took them to the tidy room.

On the way, Adams introduced to him: "This time, more than a hundred rich people have been invited, mainly from Liberty Airline. By then, you have to make more friends with these people, and it will be helpful to you."

Wang Bo thanked Adams for his kindness, and then asked curiously: "What is the free route?"

Adams smiled and said: "It can be considered the name of a club, a very old club, and a club of top rich people."

"You know, Wang, the first settlers to come to New Zealand were British convicts and free farmers, they came by sea, and the name of that route is the Freedom Route, and these people came ashore and banded together to create this alliance."

"Later, as these people established their footholds in New Zealand and gained their first pot of gold, their families developed very well. Slowly, Liberty Airline became the synonym for New Zealand's top rich circle."

Wang Bo suddenly realized, and said, "I see, this is the New Zealand version of Skull and Bones and Windsor Farm, right?"

Adams smiled and nodded: "Yes, you are right to think so."

Skull and Bones is a secret elite society in the United States. Its members include many important figures in American politics, business, and education, including three US presidents, two Supreme Court justices, and countless US congressmen and senior cabinet officials.

As for Windsor Farm, this one is more mysterious, but it is certain that it is a club formed by Canada's top rich circles, and it takes Windsor Farm as the meeting place, hence the name.

Talking about these top circles, Wang Bo jokingly said: "Man, maybe there will be a new super club in New Zealand in the future. What do you think of Sunset Club?"

Adams smiled and said, "I appreciate your ambition, Wang, but I think this name is average, Sunset Club? There is always a sense of sad aesthetics and decadence."

"You can interpret it from another angle. The people in our club join hands and can make the sun never set. Isn't that a lot more domineering?"

"Then I hope you can reserve a place for me after you create this club."

"Oh, it's hard to say. It will depend on your status and the contribution you can make to the organization."

"I can't guarantee the future situation, but I dare to bet that I can bring you and the organization great help in this auction."

Wang Bo firmly believed in this point. In fact, in this auction, he played the role of providing the venue. The organization, preparation, and conduct of the auction were all presided over by Adams.

Pharaoh had a bit of a headache as to how to accommodate so many distinguished guests. There are many rooms in the castle, and it is easy to arrange hundreds of people. However, these rooms have not been used for a long time, and it is very difficult to add extra beds and daily necessities temporarily.

The bigger problem is that the castle is almost primitive in style, without decoration. For the rich, living in such a place is obviously not what they want.

Adams said that it doesn't matter, he has a way, just arrange the rich people to Queenstown, and he will hire a helicopter later to send people there quickly.

Queenstown is a city larger than Omarama, and it is the best tourist city in New Zealand. There are top hotels in it, and Christie's has already booked a room.

The auction was arranged to be held in the main castle hall, so Wang Bo had no choice but to move Xuanhe's family of four away.

Xuanhe and his wife were very reluctant. It seemed that the crane eggs were about to hatch. When Wang Bo held them in his hand, he could feel the weight of them. This was a sign of the young crane's development.

But now I really can't keep them in the heart of the nest, and it's for their own good. What if someone accidentally touches the crane eggs and destroys them?

But it happened that Xuanhe liked to be quiet and not to make trouble. With the arrival of the main force of Christie's, they were so annoyed that they were willing to leave voluntarily.

Then, the two cranes each grabbed a crane egg and flew out. It seemed that they flew to build a nest in the aquatic plants near Lake Hawea.

Adams's people brought a combination chair, which usually looks like a pile of wooden boards, but after being disassembled and combined, it will become a chair.

This is a complete set of combined chairs, with a total of hundreds of positions, divided into six rows, with more than a dozen chairs in each row, showing a stepped shape, the chairs get higher as you go back, which is just right for the auction site.

Adams also prepared several simple wooden boxes with colorful patterns. Wang Bo looked like the cash box he put in front of the unmanned store. He asked Adams, but the other party did not tell him the answer, but said that he would know when the time came. .

The hall is covered with a thick embroidered carpet, which is a gift from Christie's to Wang Bo. Adams specially made it when the hall is long and wide, and it will belong to the castle in the future.

It was the first time for the strong man to step on the carpet, and he liked the fluffy and soft blanket very much, especially when paired with the heart of the lair, it was more comfortable, and he refused to move when he lay down.

The combination chairs surround the stone staircase in the center of the hall. There is a large platform in the middle of this stone staircase corridor. This is the exhibition stand and auction platform in the auction.

The rest is to decorate the restaurant, the castle has a new look, and it is waiting to welcome the distinguished guests.
