Jones' expression was a bit awkward.
Ye Tian keenly discovered this, but didn't take the initiative to ask, he would naturally say when he should.
After adjusting his emotions a bit, Jones immediately explained:
"That's the case. Soon after the announcement of the auction of Ferrari models, someone approached the auction house and said that those sports car models belonged to their late father and provided evidence.
For various reasons, they didn't know the warehouse and thought that their father had given the model to others, so they didn't investigate it carefully, which resulted in the warehouse being auctioned out after the expiration date.
"So? Do they still want to go back?"
Ye Tian asked in a cold tone, now his face was sinking.
These Ferrari sports car models were bought by the buddies for real money and are reasonable and legal. Even if the previous owner is here, don't pay the price that pleases the buddies, don't want to take them away easily!
Jones continued with a wry smile.
"It's not that they want to go back. They consulted a lawyer and knew that it was useless! There was no legal basis to support this claim.
These people are going to persuade you to withdraw the auction, conduct private transactions, and take back these Ferrari models. Of course, the transaction initiative is entirely yours."
Hearing this, Ye Tian's expression slightly improved.
He does not reject this trading method, provided that there is enough money! Otherwise, no talk!
Judging from the unprecedented grand occasion of the preview, the first choice is of course to shoot! Then the sky has no limits!
Ye Tian didn't interrupt Jones and continued to listen.
"After the preview started, they came back again and proposed this trading method, and they wanted to talk to you face to face, so I called you.
As an auction company, although the commission ratio remains unchanged, we prefer public auctions rather than private transactions. After all, the preliminary work has been carried out.
"I can meet with them and listen to the offer. If satisfied, I don't reject the withdrawal!"
Ye Tian's complexion returned to normal, and he said lightly.
The buddy has raised the knife, so whoever will be killed? If the blood volume is insufficient, then just stay cool!
Jones's complexion lightened a little, then he paused and said:
"Steven, since you do not reject the withdrawal of a private transaction and are willing to meet and discuss, is it okay now? They are in the next guest room, and I just came over there."
"No problem, just do it now, the sooner you solve the better"
"Well, I'll call them over!"
Jones nodded, and then went out to the next door.
Who would it be? Only then did I think of the baby at home, did the queen mother realize it?
Ye Tian sat in the reception room alone and waited, rather curious.
Two or three minutes later, Jones walked in with four white couples.
After looking around, Ye Tian immediately made a basic judgment.
The upper-middle-class families are barely able to squeeze into the elite class, and they are definitely not homes for the rich.
When he was looking at each other, these couples were also observing him, everyone was a little curious, and at the same time a little disdain and envy in his eyes.
They didn't expect that it was a Chinese who photographed the warehouse. This is too rare! Chinese people also play this kind of adventure game?
At the same time, the discrimination in their bones caused them to lower their quotations instantly, ready to buy back these precious sports car models at a lower price, and make a fortune for themselves!
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the owner of the Ferrari model, Mr. Steven"
Jones started to introduce the two sides, but he was interrupted when he said a word.
"I can correct it. All Ferrari sports car models are the private collection of my father, Joey Foster. They have been carefully collected for 60 years. They have never belonged to anyone else!"
A fifty years old white aunt said excitedly, very emotional and touching!
"Yes! Kelly is right, these sports car models belong only to the Foster family!"
"Yes, no one can take these treasures from us!"
The others echoed loudly, equally emotional, and even sad!
But from their poor acting skills and flickering eyes, Ye Tian saw another emotion.
It has nothing to do with sadness, it's all greed!
Jones was so blushing that he almost lost his breath, not knowing how to continue.
Ye Tian's face instantly became extremely cold.
How can we talk about this? Neither of you acknowledge the ownership of your buddies, is there any need to talk about it?
After a few seconds, Jones suppressed his anger and prepared to continue the introduction.
This time it was interrupted by Ye Tian, he raised his hand and pressed it down.
Jones could only stop talking with a wry smile, and then looked at Ye Tian curiously, not understanding what he meant.
Several other people also looked at Ye Tian, with a hint of hostility in curiosity.
Ye Tian paused, then said to the Foster family:
"Ladies and gentlemen, I admire Mr. Joey Foster's consistent collection for sixty years. This spirit is very precious and worthy of our admiration.
Joey has passed away, now these sports car models belong to me, this is undoubtedly reasonable and legal! No one can deny that it won't change if you vent a few words! "
Hearing this, Foster's family's complexion changed instantly, and it became as ugly as a dead father.
Do not! Their father is dead!
They wanted to refute, but they couldn't find any reason or excuse.
Because every word Ye Tian said is indisputable, everyone present knows it!
Seeing the suffocated faces of this group of people, Jones's heart was immediately refreshed, and he secretly gave Ye Tian a thumbs up, what a great job!
Ye Tian didn't pay attention to the changes in the faces of these people, and continued to say:
"You want to repurchase these collections, I welcome it very much. The door is open and time is limited, so let's be happy. Please quote!
If the price is right, I will withdraw the auction! If it is not suitable, then I am sorry, no one has the right to stop me from auctioning my own things! "
After speaking, Ye Tian took a sip of coffee, and then looked at the family with a smile, with a strong joke hidden deep in his eyes.
He didn't take this group of people seriously, and he never thought that they could offer the price he wanted.
"What? Let's talk about the price now? It's too hasty!"
"Lack of education! I really don't want to face such people!"
Several members of the Foster family were talking in low voices, their voices full of contempt.
Obviously, they didn't pay attention to Ye Tian from the beginning.
But right now, Ye Tian had the full initiative and dominant position, so they had to negotiate prices in a low voice.
All the actions of this family were in Ye Tian's eyes, and they whispered contempt for them. Ye Tian didn't bother to take care of them, and what he could do later was to humiliate them.
Jones almost cheered with excitement.
After all, he was an old fox who had been with the auction house for decades. He had already seen that Ye Tian had no intention of negotiating a deal with the family at all. This was just making fun of them.
Cool! That's great!
At this moment, Jones felt that all the depressed moments disappeared! Transparent!
Two or three minutes later, the Foster family came up with the result.
One of the oldest men stood up and said:
"Steven, this is my father's collection. Please consider the reasons for family affection. If we can make some concessions, we will also show the utmost sincerity, $500,000. What do you think?"
"Hahaha"
Ye Tian immediately laughed happily, and Jones couldn't help laughing.
I dare to open my teeth! Why don't you grab it?
"Mr. Foster, I'm sorry, I can't accept this price, the gap is too far! My psychological price is 10 million US dollars, I don't think we need to talk about it anymore, so as not to waste time!"
Ye Tian did not hesitate, and resolutely rejected the family.
The Fosters were completely stunned, and they looked at Ye Tian in disbelief.
Everyone is even wondering if their ears have just heard it wrong? How could it be possible for 10 million dollars?
Jones is also stupid, this is the real lion's big mouth! Eyes open!
Ye Tian stood up and said with a smile:
"Jones, if these Mr. Fosters pay 10 million dollars, you can call me and I can withdraw the auction at any time. If the price is not reached, there is no need to contact, so as not to waste time!"
After speaking, Ye Tian walked out the door, ready to leave here and go to the exhibition hall below.
"Ok, Steven"
Jones responded cooperatively, his performance was very professional, but he was already happy!
Only then did the Foster family wake up, and when they saw Ye Tian preparing to leave, they were immediately anxious.
"$10 million? How could it be? Those models are definitely not worth so much!"
The oldest man shouted, staring.
"Those collections belong to me! I think they are worth it! That's worth it!"
Ye Tian replied with a smile, but his tone was cold.
"Asshole! You have no sincerity at all!"
The other woman cursed directly, a little hysterical.
"Madam, swear words don't make me change my mind! 10 million dollars is my sincerity!"
Ye Tian shot back coldly and walked straight out of the reception room.
When he left the house, he turned his head and smiled and said to the Foster family:
"Although the transaction has not been negotiated, you still have a chance to participate in the auction! Competing with others depends on your strength. I wish you good luck.
If you don't feel reconciled, you can also sue. I will accompany you to the end. I have a lawyer on Wall Street who will be happy to confront you in court.
Ladies and gentlemen, let's go to the exhibition hall downstairs and take a second look, I am afraid there will be no chance in the future! Finally, I wish you all a perfect day! the same with me! "
After speaking, he closed the door of the reception room, smiled and walked away, leaving only a room of dumbfounded people!
Two or three seconds later, there was a burst of cursing in the reception room.
"Fuck! This is a fucking bastard! It's so bad!"
"Bitch! How come there is such a scum? Madman!"
They can only curse, everyone knows that there is nothing wrong with this bastard!
Amidst the anger, there is also someone who has gone crazy with happiness.
That is naturally Jones!
Back in the exhibition hall, Ye Tian immediately put aside his unhappiness and began to appreciate these fine antiques and red cars.
In addition to eating out at noon, he and Jason spent nearly three hours in the Ferrari showroom.
Looking at these fiery red cars, Ye Tian was even a little reluctant to sell them.
He understands as long as these things are bidded, they will immediately become private collections, and it is almost impossible to see them again!
But in the end, the US dollar and the Central Park mansion were more attractive, and he did not make the impulse decision to withdraw the collection.
After coming out of the Ferrari model exhibition hall, they went into the musical instrument exhibition hall again to see the two guitars.
It's relatively quiet here, but there are still a lot of crazy rock fans around the double-headed guitar, including successful people in their 30s and 40s!
It was past four o'clock in the afternoon, time to leave Sotheby's.
The two did not go anywhere else, and drove the flat-head dining car straight back to Brooklyn.
"Steven, it looks like someone is following us again"
When crossing the Manhattan Bridge, Jason while driving suddenly said something like this.
"Are they from the Foster family? The reaction was too quick!"
Ye Tian put down the phone and mumbled softly!
