Chapter 25: I am willing to give you half of the proceeds from the auction

Tang Xu took over and continued to explain to Si Si: “Appraisers are divided into three levels. Most of them are level 1 and can sell 1 item at the auction.

“There are 36 level two appraisers like my uncle and Mr. Guo in the country. They can sell 2 items at the auction.”

“As for level three appraisers, there are only 2 in the whole country. They rarely appear in public and basically will not participate in such occasions.”

After Tang Xu explained this, Si Si completely understood.

She never thought that Uncle Tang would give up such a precious quota for her calligraphy and painting.

Regardless of the other party’s motivation, Si Si was grateful from the bottom of her heart for helping her so much.

“Uncle Tang, if the calligraphy and painting are sold successfully, I am willing to give you half of the proceeds.”

Si Si didn’t know what the calligraphy and painting could be sold for, but she appreciated Uncle Tang’s kindness.

Moreover, she knew in her heart that the profits of the directors were huge. They might only take one treasure at a time, and the money they earn could be ten times.

Therefore, Si Si was not stingy in this matter. She had so many directors in her hands, and the most important thing was to be able to have long-term and stable cooperation.

Moreover, Si Si was not a greedy person. As long as she could pay back the loan owed to the bank, she would be very satisfied.

Uncle Tang never thought that a little girl would take the initiative to make such a generous decision.

Logically, the shareholders he acquired would indeed double the profits or even more.

He was willing to help Si Si, on the one hand, considering the other party’s pitiful situation, and on the other hand, he also wanted to make some profits from it.

Even if Si Si didn’t mention it, he would ask for a part of the auction proceeds after getting the other party’s consent.

“Hahaha… As expected of a child raised by a big entrepreneur, she behaves in a magnanimous way.”

“Okay, according to what Miss Si said, after the calligraphy and painting auction is successful, I will take half of the proceeds, and you don’t have to worry about the commission charged by the auction house, I will cover it all.”

The girl was so magnanimous, and he, an old man of 100 years, can’t be so magnanimous.

After the matter was settled, Si Si didn’t plan to take the calligraphy and painting away.

Tang Xu went to the computer to print a contract, which would take effect after Si Si and Uncle Tang signed it.

Looking at the operation of Uncle Tang and Si Si, Guo Lao was envious.

With a wry smile, Mr. Guo couldn’t help but joked: “Miss Si, don’t forget that I still have two auction quotas here. You must know how to seize the opportunity.”

This calligraphy and painting was so difficult to sell. Si Si thought that the ones stored in the mall were no longer useful.

Hearing what Guo Lao said, her mind became active again.

“Mr. Guo, are you willing to help me sell calligraphy and paintings at the auction?”

Mr. Guo was just joking, and he never thought that Si Si would ask this.

“Girl… girl, don’t tell me, you still have calligraphy and paintings in your hand?”

At this point, Si Si couldn’t hide it anymore, because she wanted to seize every opportunity to make money.

“I won’t hide it, Mr. Guo, I have a few similar calligraphy and paintings. If you are willing to help, I will give you half of the proceeds, just like Uncle Tang.”

At this point, Guo Lao’s envy completely disappeared: “Okay, okay, old man, I am also willing to give the auction quota to Miss Si’s calligraphy and paintings.”

Uncle Tang originally planned to show off to Guo Lao after Si Si left, but he didn’t expect that this casual remark would get the auction rights for two calligraphy and paintings.

“Girl, you are wrong. Let’s not talk about other things first. With your relationship with Tang Xu, the good things in your hands should be given to Uncle Tang first, right?” Uncle Tang was so anxious that he didn’t even call Miss Si but called the girl directly.

Seeing this, Guo Lao was not to be outdone: “Old Tang, I didn’t steal your business. I fought for the opportunity to cooperate with Miss Si.”

“You can’t say that. Miss Si found me through Tang Xu.” Old Tang continued to refute.

Seeing that the two old men were about to quarrel, Si Si quickly tried to mediate.

“Uncle Tang, Mr. Guo, don’t worry. I have enough calligraphy and paintings for both of you to bid for.”

After these words came out, the two old men finally calmed down, and all four eyes fell on Si Si.

Uncle Tang patted his chest and promised: “Miss Si if you can bring out calligraphy and paintings of the same quality, Uncle Tang will give you another auction spot.”

“I can also put other treasures aside for the time being and concentrate on helping Miss sell calligraphy and paintings.” Guo Lao also said sincerely.

Seeing this, Tang Xu reminded: “In this case, I will accompany Si Si back to get the calligraphy and paintings.”

Si Si didn’t want to stay here and watch the two old men arguing, so she took this opportunity to slip away temporarily.

On the way, Tang Xu couldn’t help asking: “Si Si, uncle has collected so many treasures, are you willing to sell them all?”

How could these things be collected by her father? They were all exchanged by her with the materials in the supermarket to Qi Mohan.

But facing Tang Xu, she could only show a look of heartache.

“The mall is the life’s work of my parents. If these items can save the mall, I believe they will support me in doing so.”

Tang Xu nodded: “That’s true.”

He asked again: “What are your plans after the mall’s debts are paid off? Will you continue to run it?”

“I haven’t thought that far yet. Let’s get through the current crisis first.”

Si Si was telling the truth. She didn’t know whether she should continue to operate the mall in the future. What she only wanted at this moment was to solve the current crisis. So that she wouldn’t have to worry about the mall being reclaimed by the bank, and she could slowly arrange the rest.

“Si Si, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, just tell me. I can face them with you.”

Tang Xu wanted to confess to Si Si, but he knew that it was not the right time yet, so he could only vaguely say this, to see if Si Si rejected him.

Si Si only wanted to pay off the debt and save the mall, and she didn’t understand Tang Xu’s implications at all.

“Thank you for your concern, senior. I won’t be polite to you when I need you.”

Her common polite words had another meaning in Tang Xu’s ears.

Si Si doesn’t reject his help and contact, and hopes to catch up with the girl he loves…

While the two were talking, Tang Xu’s car had already driven to the parking lot of the Trade Building.

When the car turned to the main gate, Si Si was stunned.

The originally empty place was surrounded by thousands of people, holding banners in their hands, which read “Give me back my hard-earned money.”

Tang Xu stepped on the brake: “Si Si, what’s going on?”

Si Si shook her head: “I don’t know when I left this morning, there was no one here.”

Si Si had to get out of the car to check the situation because the door to her current home was blocked by people.
