AEA mascot “Pi-Bao” made her debut, raising conclusion of the auction revenues to NT$122,390,000 plus. AEA branches across the country launched joint auctions on Oct. 2. The auctions featured the first public appearance of the adorable and friendly mascot “Pi-Bao,” whose presence aroused more interest from participating people in buying things while shortening the distance between the AEA branches and the general public. The buying sentiment went up as a result. Revenue from conclusion of the auction reached NT$122,395,597, setting a new record. Real estate items that were auctioned off fetched NT$117,623,002. They included: a big luxury farmhouse in Hukou Township, Hsinchu County, which the Hsinchu branch auctioned off items for NT$11.51 million, as well as a townhouse in downtown Toufen City, Miaoli County,and a motel in Tongluo Township, Miaoli County, which were auctioned off for NT$36.03 million plus in total; 6 lots of land and buildings on Ruilong Road in Qianzhen District, Kaohsiung City, which the Kaohsiung branch auctioned off for NT$25.77 million. What a remarkable performance! AEA branches across the county put on auction a wide variety of movable properties, which earned NT$4,772,595 for the government. The Taipei branch auctioned off a helmet of ancient Tibetan King Gelsall, Page 2 of 2 5 ink paintings by renowned painter Shen Lyu-sui, famous for his horse paintings, 4 watercolor paintings by Cheng Hsiang-long, and bottles of Golden Dragon-Peony-class Kinmen Kaoliang liquor for NT$1.36 million.
