1056. Market (5/5)
Brother Wolf blocked him, Li Du waved and said, "Don't hurry to leave, Mr. Xiao Ang, explain the origin of this jewelry first."
Shaun pretended to be calm and said, "There is nothing to explain. I doubt the authenticity of the guy opposite. Do you say he is Cole Winston, and he is Cole Winston?"
Cole heard his words and smiled, "I can show you my driver's license, but I guess you will question the authenticity of my driver's license after seeing it."
The young people around were confused. The development of things exceeded their expectations, and no one expected that things would turn out like this.
Li Du didn't hold back on this matter. He knew what occasion this was and who was the protagonist.
Hang up and said to Shawang: "Today is Ms. Ariana's birthday, I won't make a bad noise, but the jewelry you brought out is either the stolen proceeds from our Hery Winston Group or infringes on our patent and intellectual property rights. Our group reserves the right to pursue the prosecution."
Xiao Ang was a little panicked and said, "You can't scare me. There is no problem with the two pieces of jewelry I bought."
Li Du smiled and said, "If you say there is no problem, then there is no problem. I hope that when our group lawyers and police contact you in the future, you can insist on saying this."
He handed the jewelry to Xiao An, who subconsciously wanted to hand it to Arianna.
Ariana already knew what was going on, why would she still accept this gift? She quickly shook her head with her hands behind her back: "No, no, Xiao Ang, I don't know where you got this jewelry, you'd better go back or return it..."
Xiao Ang looked at her angrily and said, "Don't you believe me?"
Ariana didn't know what to say, so she could only look at the other people for help.
Hans pushed Porter, and Porter stepped forward and stood in front of Arianna.
He was not afraid of Xiao Ang, but he didn't know how to deal with such a thing before.
At this time, he was pushed out to face Xiao Ang. He calmly said: "Forget it, man, Ariana is right. You'd better return them or return them now. This is a bomb!"
Xiao Ang took the opportunity to leave, and he shouted: "Very good, you don't trust me! You didn't treat me as a friend! I'm blind, I have it!"
While cursing, he quickly walked out of the villa.
In this way, the atmosphere of the birthday party was destroyed. Li Du apologized to Ariana and told her that she had to do so, otherwise Ariana would accept this set of jewelry and the troubles that would be related to her in the future.
Porter took out his gift and gave it to Ariana, saying, "I have tickets for the Heat's opening game and Christmas game here. I remember you like the Heat very much, so how about we go to watch the game together?"
Ariana generously took the ticket and gave Porter a hug with a smile.
The young people applauded and screamed strangely, and started to cheer again, so the atmosphere of the birthday party was much restored.
The subsequent events had nothing to do with Li Du. He was out of the matter and waited for the party to finish the business negotiation.
But his identity was destined to be out of the matter. After knowing that he was a shareholder of the Hery Winston Group, several girls here immediately became interested in him.
Li Du chatted with them and drank with them, but if he wanted to exchange contact information, he would refuse politely and politely.
Hans came over behind and said sourly: "Who should be quieter? Who should not mess with girls at the party?"
Li Du is not sure how the birthday party was held, but after Xiao Ang left, Porter felt much better and his relationship with Arianna was much closer.
The party was over until the evening ended, and Porter sent away the young men and began to talk about the matter.
Hans took out twenty-five valuable comics, five of which are the most valuable: "Superman"'s first issue "ATIS#1", Stan Lee's hand-picked book on "Fantastic Four", the issue of Marvel magazine in which Spider-Man first appeared in the public eye, and two special issues jointly produced by DC and Marvel, introducing early heroes.
The other twenty magazines also have their own value. They are either rare and rare books nowadays or exist with special significance in the history of comics.
Porter could not price these magazine books, so they set the bargaining time the next day. Porter contacted an authoritative expert in the comics industry and asked him to help him with his advice.
Li Du was not in a hurry, they lived directly in this villa, which belonged to the Porter family.
Porter invited an expert from New York, who Li Du didn't know him, but he saw information about this expert not long ago.
The expert is named Fisler, and he is the editor-in-chief of "Comic Wired". His company was his former company who spent 1.2 million to shoot the first issue of Spider-Man magazine from Paris.
Fisle is a gentle middle-aged man. He whispered with Porter, kept answering calls, and priced these comic books.
The two discussed for about an hour and a half, and then handed a report to Li Du and Hans, with their quotes about the magazines.
The highest price is the hand-picked book of "Fantastic Four", with an astonishing price of $3 million, and the other four more valuable magazines combined are quotations of $4 million, and the average one is one million.
Among the other twenty magazines, there is also a set of twelve magazines about the early founding of Captain America. They were sold for one million dollars in total, and the quotes for all magazines were 8.4 million dollars!
Li Du was prepared for a long time, but she was still shocked when she received the offer.
Hans and the two bargained, and the final transaction price was 9 million, and both sides gathered an integer.
After signing a contract and completing a business deal, Li Du could quit: "I didn't expect these comics to be so expensive!"
Porter said: "Just in my opinion, I didn't expect that those jewelry and gems would be so expensive. These things depend on the market. If there is a market, there will be prices."
Fisle added: "Classic comics are in the same position as famous paintings, jewelry and jewelry because they are all unique and can bring people a sense of pleasure."
Li Du spread his hands and said that you can just say whatever you want, you will pay anyway.
Fisle later asked him: "Can you still get comics about the 1930s and 1940s and 1960s?"
Li Du shook his head and said, "I can't guarantee it."
Fisle sighed regretfully and said, "The 1930s and 1950s were the golden age of American comic books. Unfortunately, almost all the comic books published at that time disappeared. They should be carefully collected. I really hope they can be collected."
Li Du promised him: "You can make a list of me. If we can come across related comics in the future, we will definitely give you news."
Porter smiled and said, "You have to pass the news to me first. My comic shop needs more babies."
