Fancy seeing you here. Never took you for an art connoisseur.
never knew the worth till now
Scott examines the artwork closely before turning back to the crowd.
Just bought an original Picasso. He’s got my eye today!
Looks like you have good taste. That Picasso is one of my personal favorites too. But tell me, how much did you pay for it?
Not sure yet. Bidding starts in 30 minutes
Well, let me make a suggestion. I happen to have some connections in the art world. Connections that could help you negotiate a better price for that Picasso.
Sure, why not? What’s the worst that could happen?
whispers something in topcretin's ear
Good. Follow my lead and we'll get you the best deal possible. walks confidently towards the auctioneer
Damn, Scott, you're full of surprises. Let's do this.
Alright, listen up everyone! We have a potential buyer here who wishes to remain anonymous. Starting bid for this Picasso masterpiece is $1 million. Do I hear $1.1 million?
smirks Two million? Very bold. But I think we can go even higher. Let's see if we can push this price up a bit more. Who will give me... three million?
raises his paddle Three million it is then. You won't regret this investment, my friend.
grinning triumphantly Congratulations, my friend. You've just acquired a Picasso for three million dollars.
I did?! thank you so much sir I hug him
Scott smiles and returns the hug, savoring the moment of triumph.
Well, my friend, now that we've successfully acquired this Picasso, I have another idea in mind. How about we sell it at a profit?
Don’t you already own this painting
No, my friend. We are the ones selling it. I have connections that will guarantee us a significant profit. Trust me, this is going to be a smart investment.
We need to find the right buyer, someone who's willing to pay top dollar for this masterpiece.
And how exactly do you plan on doing that?
Leave that to me. I have a network of high-profile art collectors and dealers who are always looking for rare pieces like this.
sounds good to me, what’s the target price?
Well, considering the rarity and the value of this Picasso, I believe we can fetch at least five million dollars for it.
woah! you’re really making me rich
Now, let's set up a meeting with some potential buyers. I know exactly who to contact.
wow! how exciting! thanks for all your help scott
