    "This is a work of art provided by the Chinese painter Mr. Liu Chengzong. It is called "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". It is a reproduction of life in the Song Dynasty in China. It is known as the encyclopedia of the Song Dynasty. The starting price is 4,500 Canadian dollars" Bai  Gloves said in a passionate voice.

    His voice fell, and Qin Shiou raised the brochure in his hand, "4,600 Canadian dollars."

    Hamre thought for a moment and said: "The Song Dynasty was a long-standing dynasty, wasn't it? Is this painting a fake?"

    Qin Shiou smiled and said: "Of course it is a fake. The real painting of this painting has been incomplete. If it is authentic, how can it be more than 4,500 Canadian dollars, or more than 45 million Canadian dollars! That is our national treasure!"

    He wanted to get this painting. The villa lacked decorations and only had some ferocious-looking fossils. The painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival was large and beautiful, so it would be a good decoration to hang up.

    ¡°Furthermore, this painting was obviously copied by a compatriot named Liu Chengzong. Although it is a fake, it is not something crudely made in a factory, and it still has a certain artistic value.

    Most of the people present come from well-off families and are here to show their love and see if they can find anything they like.

    ¡°Chinese antiques and artworks have always been the benchmark in the collection world. There is no doubt that many people are interested in this extra-long scroll.

    So, raised arms came and went, and the price rose all the way, from 4,500 yuan to 8,000 yuan, setting the current price record.

    Qin Shiou kept raising his hand, showing his determination to win the painting. When the price reached 8,000 yuan, not many people were still competing with him. Most of them shook their heads and gave up on the painting.

    In the end, the price rose to 9,200 yuan, and Qin Shiou directly increased it to 10,000 yuan. The remaining competitor shrugged and gave up bidding, nodded to him from a distance, and congratulated him on winning the painting.

    ??Hitting the table with the gavel in his white gloves, OK, the deal is done for 10,000 yuan.

    Everyone on the left and right shook hands with Qin Shiou. This time it was not to celebrate him, but to thank him for his contribution to charity.

    After the auction of "Along the River During Qingming Festival" ends, the auction will be suspended and everyone will take a rest.

    Hamre patted Qin Shiou on the shoulder and asked him to follow him. He found a small prayer room and only two people sat in it. Then the mayor asked straight to the point: "Do you still remember the promise I made to you before the mayoral election?  ?¡±

    Of course Qin Shiou remembered it, he said with a smile: "Make Farewell Island my private island?"

    Hamre corrected: "Not becoming, but like."

    Qin Shiou shrugged to show that he understood, and said: "Of course I remember, and what can you do? Sell me the right to use it?"

    Hamre smiled and said: "You have lived on the island long enough, and you should know enough about the island, right?"

    "Actually, Farewell Island is a small world independent of the land. The residents only care about their own lives. They don't care about the politics, military, and economy of the country or even the provinces and cities."

    "I am the mayor, and I feel more clearly about all this. When I was on the island, I felt that the island belonged to me, so I worked so hard to develop and build it."

    "If you want to own this island, Qin, let me give you a suggestion. You first become the mayor of the town, and then slowly invest in all the businesses on the island - as far as I know you are already doing this, right?  In this way, when the political power and economy of the island belong to you in the end, wouldn¡¯t it mean that the island belongs to you? "

    "Do you want to be the mayor? This requires popular election, and I have the right to nominate. I believe that if I nominate you to be the mayor, then you will be the mayor!"

    After Hamre finished speaking, Qin Shiou concentrated his energy. He looked at Hamre doubtfully and said, "Are you serious?"

    "Of course, I am fulfilling my promise to my biggest financial supporter, so I must say something seriously!"

    Qin Shiou rubbed his hands, looked directly at Hamrei and said, "Why do I have the feeling that we are working together to seek power and usurp power?"

    "Did you watch "Mission Impossible", "House of Cards", "White House Down" and other ghost stuff last night? Damn it, Qin, we are making suggestions for the development of Farewell Town, talking about seeking power and usurping government  !" Hamre looked furious.

    In fact, Qin Shiou was really impressed by Hamre's idea!

    He has no interest in the position of mayor of Farewell Town, but if he can control the political power of this town and then penetrate the economy, Farewell Island can really become his private garden.

    Of course, what should the people in the town do?How to live, they can make better money, because Qin Shiou's economic penetration is not a simple acquisition and exclusion, but a joint venture!

    ¡°Just like he and Hughes Jr. jointly opened a grocery store, and he and Sagro jointly opened a gun store. Most people in the small town had little money, so he could inject capital into a partnership to expand the business.

    After thinking for a moment, Qin Shiou said, "I'm interested, William, but am I qualified to run for town mayor?"

    Hamre raised his index finger and said: "As long as one year, Newfoundland's political environment is the most relaxed. As long as you immigrate for one year, you can run for town mayor."

    "Then let's talk in detail after the auction." Qin Shiou said expectantly.

    The temptation of power is great. Qin Shiou is not obsessed with power, but he has a strong sense of small farmers, which is related to his family. Children of Chinese farmers all hope to have a piece of land where they can make decisions.

    ¡°In the final analysis, Qin Shiou has no sense of security. He is worried that Farewell Island will have a mayor who cannot deal with him in the future, which will be troublesome. He has invested too many resources in the fishery and must ensure full ownership of the fishery.

    The fifteen-minute break passed quickly, and Qin Shiou returned to the church. Later in the auction, he still raised the placards and gave a good price, and got a bunch of things that he probably didn't need.

    The last auction item was called 'Seven Mysterious Days'. White Gloves took out the seven exquisite black pearls brought by Qin Shiou, first boasted them with various flattering words, and then introduced the donor, Qin Shiou.

    Seven black pearls were photographed from various angles, and are now played on the background curtain of the church. In the clear photos, the black pearls appear purer and darker, with a faint luster. When they appear in the church, there is indeed a trace of them.  Mysterious flavor.

    Qin Shiou stood up to pay his respects, and there was thunderous applause. White Gloves said: "This amazing fish farm owner held up half of the auction by himself. God bless him, God bless him! Every good person will regard him as his  example!"

    After having done enough foreplay, the final auction begins. The seven black pearls are the largest in value among the auction items, and the price is also the highest. The starting price is one hundred thousand Canadian dollars!  A price increase is no longer one hundred or two hundred, but one thousand!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
