Listening to Huo Huazu's words, the faces of the people around him looked a little strange.
Because the Huo family has always kept a low profile and rarely competes in strength in public, but today is a bit special, because the people present today are all the super wealthy families in Hong Kong Island, and they know each other very well.
They all vaguely knew that the Huo family hid their strength.
even.
It is estimated that it is even better than the four giants in Hong Kong Island.
"Lao Huo is domineering."
The old man in rich clothes narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment and then said: "If it were something else, I, Kong Boxuan, might let it go. It's the beauty of adulthood, but I won't let go of this feng shui magic weapon."
"My ancestor has reached a critical juncture and urgently needs this Feng Shui instrument."
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone couldn't help but feel shocked.
Even Huo Huazu couldn't help but frown.
The Kong family in Hong Kong Island can be considered a wealthy family, following the principles of Confucius and Mencius. It is said that their ancestors were Confucian and Taoist masters. Later, when the family fell into decline and came to Hong Kong Island, the children of the family worked hard and made the Kong family strong again.
But in recent years, the Kong family has also been slowly declining.
It is because the ancestor of the Kong family is too old and his strength has seriously declined, which has attracted the covetousness of many new forces.
"Master Huo, there is no need to be embarrassed. You and I can fight for it based on our abilities. Anyway, this magic weapon is also an auction item. The one with the highest price will get it, and the one with the best price will get it. It's natural."
Kong Boxuan was open-minded and spoke with a smile.
"Okay, then we will compete fairly."
Huo Huazu nodded with a smile: "But having said that, this auction is also a thief. It happened to invite our two families here, which can be said to be a precise positioning."
"Speaking of which, I heard that there has been some turmoil on the board of directors of Christie's recently. What do you think?"
Christie's Auction is headquartered on Hong Kong Island, but it is actually a super-conglomerate, with many board members coming from overseas.
The predecessor of this auction was a war freight group. It quickly accumulated capital through the world war that broke out in the last century, and opened up channels for the circulation of antiques everywhere.
final.
Transformed into the most prestigious Christie's auction.
"I've also heard that it seems that two ancient families in Eastern Europe announced that they would split their shares, and then they were swallowed up by several other chaebols."
Kong Boxuan raised his head and looked at the man lying on his side: "Old Mu, your Mu family specializes in financial investment. You should know more about this than we do, right?"
Huh! Everyone looked back.
The old Mu mentioned by Kong Boxuan is named Mu Jian'an, and he is an old man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Mu Jian'an looks like a well-educated and well-educated person. In fact, he is proficient in financial venture capital. When the financial crisis that swept the world occurred in Hong Kong, it was Mu Jian'an who took the lead in formulating plans. Even experts in the financial sector had to consult him.
Huo Huazu also smiled and said: "Master Mu, among so many people here, you are the most educated, so tell me."
"Brother Huo, please stop teasing me. When it comes to mental planning, you are the best. I'm just a financial nerd."
Mu Jian'an smiled and shook his head, then continued: "Actually, I don't know much about the turmoil on the board of directors of Christie's senior management."
"But according to reliable information."
"After a struggle on the board of directors, four established chaebols withdrew, and then fresh liquidity poured in. What's interesting is that the source of this capital is very mysterious, and there is no accurate evidence to know the origin of each other..." Mu Jianan leaned on
On the Grand Master's chair, he knocked the solid wood armrest with his right hand a few times intentionally or unintentionally, then he closed his eyes to rest and said no more.
This action is very secretive.
Only Huo Huazu and Kong Boxuan were shocked, and their expressions became solemn.
Outsiders only know that the Mu family is proficient in finance, but in fact, the Mu family is proficient in the financial trends of the international market, especially Wall Street, which pays the most attention. If there are clues, the Mu family will grasp the direction of the trend.
Just now, Mu Jianan knocked his fingers intentionally or unintentionally.
It's clearly a metaphor.
That mysterious fund most likely came from China, or even from Hong Kong Island.
This can also explain clearly that the Mu family, who specializes in overseas markets, is also confused, because the Mu family focuses on the international market, but is somewhat elusive about Hong Kong Island's finance.
because.
The finance of Hong Kong Island is controlled by the four giants.
"..." Huo Huazu frowned.
He wants more.
If there are members of the four major families on the board of directors of Christie, and they can hide the power of the Huo family, then only the Zheng family can.
If the Zheng family became an antique at the auction, and happened to come up with the Feng Shui instrument that he urgently needed today, it was a coincidence that he was invited over... "Could it be a scam?"
Huo Huazu's heart was turbulent, but his face was calm and calm. He even had time to pick up the purple sand teapot on the tea table and brew a pot of hot tea leisurely.
Clang.
Without hesitation, the tea in the teapot poured out, soaking Huo Huazu's sleeves, and the scalding hot water made the skin on his hands turn red.
"Ouch."
Huo Huazu cried out in pain.
Several other people looked at it one after another.
Kong Boxuan asked with concern: "Mr. Huo, are you okay?"
"It's okay. I'm used to playing with my Venus purple clay teapot at home, and I've developed a habit. I didn't realize that the purple clay teapot here is a bit rough."
Huo Huazu waved his sleeves with a wry smile: "I'm old and can't bear the pain. I guess I have to leave the scene first to deal with the burn. I hope I can make it in time..." With that, he made a gesture to get up.
suddenly.
The door to the inner courtyard of the auction opened and a group of people strolled out.
The first, a white-haired old man wearing black and white cloth shoes and a brown Chinese tunic suit, walked out with a smile.
"Mr. Huo, don't leave. If you leave, you won't be able to catch up with the auction. In this way, I have a complete medical system here."
"Come here, prepare to treat the burn quickly. Also, bring the drying machine..." The white-haired old man waved his hand.
Not long after, professional medical staff and waiters came behind me.
"Master Wang?"
Huo Huazu raised his eyebrows: "I heard that you were promoted to the president of the Hong Kong Feng Shui Association. Why are you here?"
This Master Wang is a very famous Feng Shui master in Hong Kong Island.
Moreover, he was recently promoted to the president of the Feng Shui Association, and he was very popular. He was invited by various wealthy families, but they all declined them one by one.
"Haha, I was just invited to hold an auction today. The consignor's item is a Feng Shui magic weapon. A Feng Shui magician must be present to demonstrate its complete functions to you."
Master Wang explained with a smile.
The others nodded slightly without thinking much.
But Huo Huazu's heart sank to the bottom.
The Hong Kong Island Feng Shui Association sounds like it has a great name, but it is actually a private organization. The previous president was Yang Rusong. In other words, this so-called Feng Shui Association was funded and planned by the Zheng family.
The moment I saw Master Wang.
Huo Huazu's back felt a little cold. He knew that he was in big trouble!
