Chapter 550 Charity Auction

The Manchester United team went to Marseille 3 days before the Champions League match to fight for the semi-finals.Liu Yun stayed in Manchester and continued his recovery training.

On this day, after training at the base, Liu Yun returned to the seaside villa.

As soon as Liu Yun returned to the villa, he found that the yard of the villa was full of people.He slapped his head: I forgot, today Isabella will hold a small auction at home - auction some of Liu Yun's court memorabilia, to raise money for the children of the Kaiser Orphanage in South Africa.

The Kaiser Orphanage in South Africa has always had a cooperative relationship with the Coventry Orphanage.

Now Little Coke has gradually grown up.Isabella told Liu Yun that she will put more energy on her charity work in the future.

Liu Yun quickly took a shower, changed his clothes and came to the yard.

The yard is full of tables and chairs.The seats were full of celebrities from Manchester and Coventry.

When the celebrities saw the old lieutenant coming, they greeted him warmly.

"Hey, old lieutenant. It is said that you will definitely be able to return in May?"

"Old Lieutenant, what do you think of the collective misfire of the Manchester United striker troika in this round of the league?"

"Old lieutenant, what is the state of the Manchester United players now? Can they win Marseille?"

As soon as Liu Yun showed up, the auction turned into a press conference.It's just that the reporters who asked questions have become celebrities from Manchester City and Test City.

Liu Yun is used to this kind of scene.He patiently answered everyone's questions.

Isabella walked to the auction block in a beautiful evening dress.

"I announce that tonight's charity auction will officially begin."

"Chi Chi Chi Chi", the celebrities applauded one after another.

Isabella stepped down and sat next to Liu Yun.

The auctioneer came to the stage: "The following is a pair of football boots that will be auctioned. These boots are from the time when the old lieutenant played for Coventry City.
Worn in the FA Cup final.The old lieutenant wore these boots, broke through the gate of Chelsea twice, and finally led the fourth-tier league team Coventry to win the FA Cup!People call the day when Coventry won the championship the Great Miracle Day!The Coventry team has also become a model for the weak to challenge the strong and finally defeat the strong!The value of these boots speaks for itself.OK, the starting bid is £5000, and it goes up by £2000 per bid.Start bidding now. "

Sir Sherlock of the Coventry Textile Association holds a placard.

"Okay, this gentleman is offering £7000!"

Manchester City celebrities believe that this is a souvenir of the old lieutenant's FA Cup victory in Coventry, and it should naturally be reserved for the Coventry people.Therefore, no one in Manchester city raised their placards.

Coventry people competed for bids. £9000, £1. . . . .Prices soared all the way to £2000.

Suddenly, a voice sounded from the corner: "I offer 6 pounds!"

The bidder was a tall man in his 30s.

Liu Yun felt that this person looked familiar.But couldn't remember who it was.

"6 pounds! Is there any bid, okay, 6 pounds for the first time, 6 pounds for the second time, 6 pounds for the third time, deal!"

The auctioneer gave the hammer down, and the famous pair of football boots belonged to the owner.

The man in his 30s went up to the stage to receive the wrapped football boots, but he stepped off the stage directly and left the auction site.

At the auction site, a small electronic display screen was installed.The number on the display changed from 0 to 60000.

"Okay, we have raised 6 pounds! Let's auction off the No. 46 jersey worn by the old lieutenant Liu Yun when he scored the amazing half-time lob in the first round of the Premier League last season."

It's the turn of Manchester United's local luminaries.The price of this jersey has soared from £8000 to £5.

Liu Yun whispered to Isabella beside him, "I never thought that these things piled up in the utility room of our house... could be sold for so much money to help orphans in South Africa."

Isabella smiled at her husband: "Sometimes the fame of a celebrity is the best source of charity. The 'stuff piled in the utility room' in your mouth represents your struggle in the UK. Maybe in In your eyes, they are just ordinary things, but in the eyes of your generous fans, they are worth a thousand dollars. You can buy things that the old lieutenant used on the field as souvenirs, and you can do good deeds, killing two birds with one stone.”

Liu Yun nodded: "I still don't know anything about charity. But I think the more charity you do, the better. There is nothing wrong with it. Isabella, your choice is correct. In the future, we can hire a full-time nanny to bring small Coke .So you can focus more on philanthropy."

Liu Yun suddenly remembered something, and he asked Isabella: "The man who bought my boots for £6 just now... seems familiar. Why can't I remember who it is?"

Isabella said: "It seems that our eldest daughter came to give a gift when she came of age. I remember it was a beer. I was very impressed by this special gift."

Liu Yun suddenly realized.That man is the subordinate of the godfather Anthony!

"Beep~" Liu Yun's phone vibrated.He received a message: "Sometimes evil people do good."

Although the message was not signed, Liu Yun knew that the person who sent the message was Anthony.

The auction has sold more than 20 souvenirs of Liu Yun.The figure on the electronic display also soared all the way to 140 million pounds.

Finally, the celebrities ushered in the highlight of this auction.

In the No.30 round of the Premier League last season, Manchester United defeated West Ham United 4:1 and won the Premier League championship seven rounds ahead of schedule-the ball used for that game had the signatures of all Manchester United players on it.

The starting bid was £5.

"Sixty million pounds!"

"Sixty million pounds!"

"Sixty million pounds!"

The price of this souvenir has skyrocketed.After dozens of rounds of bidding, it was finally sold at a sky-high price of 83 pounds!

The total amount of money raised in this auction reached an astonishing 223 million pounds!
Liu Yun was astonished.Unexpectedly, the pile of souvenirs I piled up in the utility room was worth a full 223 million pounds!Equivalent to more than 1000 million RM coins!
Isabella and Ms. Nancy, the director of Kaiser Orphanage in South Africa, walked onto the stage arm in arm.

Ms. Nancy said excitedly: "Thanks to Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu for their support of this charity auction. Thanks to the gentlemen and ladies for their generosity. The 223 million pounds will become the education fund for 450 orphans in Kaiser Orphanage .I am on behalf of 450 children, thank you everyone!"

After speaking, Ms. Nancy bowed.

All the celebrities applauded.

Mr. Xie Te, the director of JT Industrial Group in Manchester, paid the most money in this auction.He donated a total of 98 pounds and bought four souvenirs including the signed football.

Isabella invited Mr. Schett to speak on the stage: "It is a great honor to be able to photograph four souvenirs of the old lieutenant. These souvenirs tonight represent the struggle of the old lieutenant in the UK-from an unknown fourth-level The struggle of a league bench player to become a Ballon d'Or winner. I think this 98 charitable donation is too worthwhile. I will sleep with this signed football tonight!"

Mr Shetter's joke had the entire audience laughing.

At the end of the auction, celebrities surrounded Liu Yun and took photos with him.

Finally, the celebrities left their beach villas.

Liu Yun said to Isabella: "It's unbelievable that my pile of miscellaneous things can be exchanged for the tuition fees of 450 South African orphans from elementary school to high school. Such charity activities must call your husband and I in the future." Give you a platform."

Isabella said: "My husband is not only a tough guy, but also a compassionate gentleman. I am so proud of you."
