Chapter Three Hundred and One(2/2)

Following the lady's wishes, I made a shelf to support it and turned it upside down to put the fudge.

The above is the origin of the British crown to be auctioned by Xianchi Auction House. This celebrity gossip is very interesting. Almost all major media in Hong Kong reported it, and it was not placed in the entertainment section but in the news section. Many newspapers even included it.

The photo was introduced on the front page.

This news seems absurd, but it is worthy of belief because Mrs. Xiao is a famous tigress. There was another story more than ten years ago, which was also on the news pages of major media at that time. It was a few days before Hong Kong's return to the motherland.

In 2006, in view of Xiao Changfa's outstanding contribution to the development of Hong Kong, the Queen of England awarded him a knighthood.

This is not a strange thing. At that time, movie stars Jackie Chan and others also received knighthoods from the Queen of England and had so-called aristocratic status.

Some people may not understand that to this day, the United Kingdom still implements a status hierarchy. The Parliament is also divided into the House of Lords and the House of Commons. The status of federal citizens is divided into nobles and civilians. Noble status is obtained through hereditary or honorary awards, which are called hereditary nobles.

Along with newly created nobles, knighthood is the lowest level of noble title.

These were gossips that were picked up by various paparazzi from unknown sources. They spread throughout Hong Kong overnight, and then spread to the mainland and overseas. The next day after the newspaper was published, many reporters came to the Xianchi Auction House.

Wu immediately confirmed that the news was true and officially issued an auction announcement. The special auction will be held on the second day of the second lunar month in the Chinese lunar calendar.

Hong Kong has held many large-scale auctions in recent years. Internationally renowned auction companies such as Christie's and Sotheby's have done a lot of hard work here, but the auctions are all Chinese cultural relics. This is the first time that something like a British crown has appeared. The news is in

The news spread quickly in the international collecting community, and major news media also reprinted it one after another, causing a lot of speculation. Ikezaka Satoru even saved advertising fees. If he did the publicity himself, no matter how much money he spent, it would not have the same effect.

There is still half a month until the second day of the second lunar month, and Chi Zhongwu is very busy. Of course, this kind of special auction cannot only auction one thing. Most of the other items are related to the main items in the town. People keep contacting Xian
