Monday, 10 a.m. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Sotheby's, Collectors of Sport Reception Room.
Ye Tian was leisurely drinking coffee, his expression was very relaxed, and lawyer David was reviewing the consignment auction contract next to him.
Opposite are three Sotheby's employees, one is Billy, the head of the sports collectibles department, and the other two are sports collectibles experts.
They were appraising Ye Tian's box of New York Yankees baseball collectibles, carefully and seriously, and at the same time, each of them had a look of surprise on their faces.
Billy, the director, in particular, has extremely bright eyes, like a searchlight, and looks a little crazy!
He's a native of New York, a die-hard Yankees fan, so it's not surprising that he's behaving like this! For any other Yankees fan, it's basically like this, if not better!
Five minutes passed.
The two experts continued to examine each piece intently, and Billy looked up.
"Steven, thank you again for choosing Sotheby's to entrust us with the auction of these baseball collections, and I'm honored to see the 'Yankee Light' Jalig's signed baseball, it's a perfect morning!"
Billy said excitedly.
At this time, although his emotions had calmed down slightly, his face was still red with excitement, not at all like a professional in his forties, but more like a baseball madman at the age of seventeen or eighteen.
"Billy, you're welcome, I chose Sotheby's because of your excellent reputation and believe it is a win-win cooperation"
Ye Tian replied with a smile.
"Of course, as long as the auction announcement of these baseball collectibles is released, it will definitely cause a shock, especially among Yankee fans, and a sensation is inevitable!
I could almost have imagined the preview and the auction, it would have been a huge event, there were so many competitors, if I were a rich man, I would have participated, but unfortunately I wasn't!"
"Hahaha, even if you can't have it, I believe that you have no less opportunities to appreciate these collections than others"
......
Due to the large number of collections, the identification time is relatively long.
After David reviewed the contract, the appraisal was less than half complete.
Taking this time, Ye Tian took out the employment contract he had made and asked David to check it.
There are two contracts, one for Jason and one for Bowie, and a non-disclosure agreement for Bowie.
Meanwhile.
Ye Tian whispered the details of the employment cooperation, especially about Bowie, and talked about everything in detail.
Doing so will undoubtedly minimize the risk and keep everything under your control.
After listening to the story, David, who is a lawyer and is accustomed to wind and rain, couldn't help but give a thumbs up and appreciated!
"Steven, your mind is so meticulous and your plan is very thorough, no wonder you can dig up treasures one after another and make a fortune!
Ye Tian smiled and said helplessly:
"This is also a helpless thing, after a few times of digging treasure, I have become the target of public criticism, if I don't do this, it will be difficult to photograph the warehouse again, in order to continue to make a fortune, I have to think of it.
Another thing, I have a good relationship with Bowie, and seeing his current situation, as a friend, I should give him a hand, and this is also to help myself!"
"Bowie is so lucky, with a friend like you, he doesn't have to go back to Texas, New York still has a chance!"
David nodded and complimented.
Then he began to review the contract, and he had to take Bowie's contract back and witness the signing!
At eleven o'clock, the appraisal work was completed.
All the collections are genuine, highly collectible, and have a very high market price.
With the announcement of the unanimous appraisal opinion of the two sports collectibles experts, the process of signing the consignment auction contract began.
Ye Tianlong signed the contract and completed the entrusted auction procedures.
"Steven, there will be an auction announcement tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, a preview will be arranged in about a week, and the auction will be launched at the end of August, when there will be a special auction for sports collectibles, I believe the best price will be auctioned"
Putting away the contract, Billy began to introduce the auction arrangement, which was very detailed and important.
"OK! I'm satisfied, just wait for the preview to start"
Ye Tian nodded and said.
Then he shook hands with several professionals and left Sotheby's!
Coming out of the office building, it's already lunchtime.
It's close to Chinatown, so without a car, Ye Tian and David wandered into Chinatown to enjoy mouth-watering Chinese food!
......
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Tian returned to Sotheby's again.
But this time I didn't go to the office building, but to the personal vault.
With the help of the staff, he loaded two boxes of Peter Cooper's antiques into a pickup truck, and then drove away from Sotheby's and went to Benny's second-hand store.
It's time to swap these babes for green dollars!
It was only half past one to Benny's second-hand store, and there was still half an hour before the agreed transaction time.
As soon as the car stopped, Jason and Parker immediately greeted them, and the three of them carried two suitcases into the store together.
Then Ye Tian saw that Benny and three old men in their fifties walked out of the reception room.
One of the three has a familiar face, it is the old fox Gary, and the other two don't know each other, so they should be the object of this transaction.
"Hey!Benny, Gary, good afternoon!"
Ye Tian said hello with a smile, and those who didn't know him nodded politely.
"Good afternoon, Steven, we can't wait!"
Gary greeted with a smile.
Although it is an exaggeration, this old fox is still calm, gentle, like a gentleman!
"Gentlemen, this is the famous, brightest new star of treasure digging in the world of warehousing auctions, God's darling, Steven"
After Benny said hello, he began to introduce Ye Tian, and his words were quite exaggerated.
"It's really famous, I've heard it countless times in the past two days!"
One of the old men smiled, and the other nodded in agreement.
"Steven, this is Erwin, the owner of the antique shop, this is Anderson, the owner of the second-hand shop, all for your antiques!"
Benny introduced the identities of the other two.
Ye Tian stepped forward and shook hands with each other one by one, and got to know each other.
With a few polite greetings, Gary gets straight to the point.
"Steven, open the box and let's see the baby!"
The eyes of the rest of the people lit up instantly, and their eyes immediately turned to the two huge boxes, expecting Ye Tian to open them and start the treasure hunt.
But Ye Tian unexpectedly shook his head and refused.
"I'm sorry, I can't open the box now, there are still people who haven't arrived, for the sake of fairness, let's wait for everyone to arrive, and then enjoy it together"
What else could the rest of them say, so they nodded their heads and waited patiently.
Ye Tian did this with consideration.
These people will be partners in the future, and in order to maintain a good relationship, they must be fair and treat everyone equally, so that they can continue to cooperate in the future.
It was two o'clock in the morning, and the remaining two also rushed to Benny's second-hand store.
After some introductions and greetings, everyone walked into the reception room and started today's antique appraisal transaction.
