Just as the person in charge of the Land Bureau and the host of the auction were handing over the microphone, a small commotion was suddenly heard at the entrance of the venue.

Lin Zitan and Eddie looked back and saw that Richard, who had almost been chosen by them as their partner, had actually appeared at the venue.

People who know the Richard and Harrison families naturally know the strength of their families, and every small and medium-sized developer here is familiar with their family, so seeing that their family, the second master, is here, they are still gearing up and eager to try, and the arrogance of the few people who are bound to win immediately weakened a lot.

Richard walked into the venue with his assistant as if nothing had happened, nodded slightly to the two people on the rostrum in front of him, and walked all the way to the empty seats in the first row.

Inadvertently swept to Eddie and Lin Zitan, who were sitting next to him, Richard's brows frowned slightly, but then he smiled relievedly, and raised his hand to the two people not far away.

"Why is he here?"

Eddie was also very surprised to see Richard come in, it stands to reason that such a small project and the entire project is in the suburbs of New York, completely out of the scope of Manhattan, should not attract the attention of the Harrison family.

"Let's wait and see what happens!"

Although Lin Zitan was also surprised in his heart, the businessman's profit-seeking nature made him fully able to understand the reason for Richard's appearance, who would be afraid of having too much money, especially a master like them who can't spend a lot of money!

What's more, Richard has been trying to do something to prove his ability to his father recently, and although this development is not big at the moment, it is still a high-profile investment in the real estate development industry in New York City at this stage.

No matter which real estate developer gets these pieces of land, it is likely to become a dark horse in the New York real estate industry in the future, and successfully enter the forefront of the New York real estate industry in the near future.

Of course, the premise is that these three plots of land can be taken by the same real estate developer, otherwise if they are auctioned by three different real estate developers, it will take a lot of time to coordinate the development affairs.

The two people on the rostrum seemed to be quite surprised by Richard's appearance, and they instantly felt a sense of puffiness, and both of them smiled and waited for Richard to take his seat before starting the following procedure.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Adam, the host of this auction, and I am very honored to serve all of you, and I look forward to welcoming you all with a full load!"

After Adam finished speaking, the audience immediately burst into applause.

"So there's a detailed map under your seats, and here are the topographical maps of the three lots that we're going to auction today, and yes, I see a lot of guests have opened them.

First of all, the first piece of land, which is the smallest piece of land in our topographical map, yes, this is it. ”

The host put down the map and pointed to the screen on the curtain wall behind him with the highlighter in his hand, which was using a projector to play the full topography of the land taken from the map of ancient songs.

"Look, this is this land, 1981 to 1998 Randall Avenue, which is 2.35 acres.

Located near Castle Hill in the East Bronx, the site is just 2 minutes from Route 278 and 5 minutes from Route 95.

As we all know, the East Bronx is known as the new queen of the future, and the housing prices here have grown very rapidly in recent years, and the net profit of the surrounding renovated homes ranges from 50,000 to 90,000 US dollars.

The three plots we are auctioning today are closely connected, this is the smallest of them, the starting price of 2.35 acres is 5 million, and the price increase must not be less than 1 million yuan each time, and the bidding is now open. ”

As the 3D map on the screen behind him began to freeze on the two-acre land, the host also wore his white gloves and struck the first bidding gavel of today's auction.

--------------------

"6 million!"

"Okay, this blonde lady on the 18th began to bid, 6 million, this is also the first bid in this auction, ladies and gentlemen, is there any increase in the price?"

The moderator spoke in a very friendly and inflammatory tone, and after a while, someone started bidding.

"7 million!"

"That gentleman bid 7 million, 7 million once, is there a price increase? You must know that these three plots of land are connected, but they are separated by roads, but if you want to take the whole land for development, this is a pass!" the host induced.

"8 million!"

When Lin Zitan heard this voice, he finally raised his head, it was not that he didn't want to bid, he was just waiting for the reaction of the people around him, adding one million at a time, this kind of auction is really a sky-high auction!

However, they had already done all kinds of homework before they came, and the houses near this plot of land had to be nearly 1.5 million yuan for a quarter of an acre, and an average of 6 million yuan per acre, of course, those belonged to the mature land that had been developed.

Now the starting price of ZF is already very humane, but if the first piece of land is speculated to tens of millions, then the later land price is estimated to be even more exaggerated.

The person who shouted 8 million was none other than Richard's assistant, who was sitting not far from him.

"9 million!"

As soon as Lin Zitan hesitated, he heard Eddie next to him speak.

"Wow, this young gentleman has reached 9 million, the gentleman who quoted 8 million just now, do you want to add another 1 million?"

The host looked at Richard, obviously knowing very well that the person who asked for 8 million just now was just a part-time worker, and it was Richard who really paid the money.

"Everyone, 9 million for the first time, time waits for no one! 9 million for the second time, the last chance ......"

"10 million!"

Sure enough, the developers, who were so tortured by the host, finally heard the price increase of 1 million again.

"Haha, Mr. Richard has already sold 10 million, will this be the end of this land?

Dear friends, 10 million for the first time, is there any? 10 million for the second time! Mr. who just raised the price, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity......

"Eleven million!"

Just before the host immediately said 10 million for the third time, Lin Zitan finally made a move!

"Wow~ A dark horse was killed in the crowd, this Asian gentleman increased to 11 million, 11 million for the first time, everyone, 11 million for the second time, ......"

The host looked around, looked at the developers who were looking at each other under the stage, and hesitated to shout one last time.

"11 million ...... The third time, knock~"

The auction hammer fell, and Lin Zitan finally bought the first piece of land at a price of 11 million US dollars.

Richard, who was sitting not far from him, gritted his teeth tightly, as an experienced old real estate developer, of course one million more is not a problem for Richard, but the problem is that the bottom price in his heart is 10 million, and he feels that it is not worth any more.

Turning his head to look at this Asian who had always been regarded as an inconspicuous little person by him, Richard's mouth pulled out a mocking smile, and he thought:

This guy is either inexperienced, or he is stupid and has a lot of money, anyway, if he is asked to buy such a piece of land with an extra million, he will never start!

Of course, Lin Zitan saw Richard's contemptuous eyes, but at this moment, he was turbulent in his heart, but he tried to maintain his usual coldness and reticency, and he did not get carried away because he won this first piece of land.

He knew very well that an old real estate developer like Richard was probably silently laughing at him at the moment, because the price was already much higher than the valuation of the land.

Lin Zitan and Eddie have done a lot of homework since they got the drawings through the grapevine, and it is true that the price he offered today is much higher than the market price, but in terms of the development prospect of the entire land, they will not lose at all!

As mentioned by the host at the beginning, this land alone does not seem very attractive, because it is too small to develop and the profit will not be too high, but in the long run, this land is the key to the entire development zone, and only by winning this land will there be a broader profit margin in the future.
