Chapter 166: The Contest (6)

As soon as the host's voice fell, someone in the venue began to shout:

"No. 5, Sam King!"

"No. 10, Sam King!"

For a while, the voices of the two kings shouting and cheering came and went, and the scene suddenly became a little chaotic.

The host waved his hand at the venue and said: "Everyone's enthusiasm is very high! But I don't know who to listen to in this chaos! I think we still follow the old rules to conduct a live auction of these two ginsengs. Everyone said it's okay!"

"Good!"

There was a cheer from the audience.

After the venue quieted down, the host did not immediately enter the auction process, but made some explanations on the two ginsengs: "Now I will give a brief explanation to these two ginsengs.

This No. 5 ginseng seedling is a pure seed product, from the Shuangfeng Forest Farm in Yufengling, Xing'an Mountains, weighing 1,254 grams, and the ginseng age has just reached 30 years.

The main body is strong, the reed bowl is closely intergrown, the round shoulders are round, the reed head is compressed into a lingering twisting and whirling eagle neck reed, the appearance of the taproot is concave and convex and the body beard, and the signs look like mountain ginseng year by year.

In terms of its appearance, it is completely comparable to wild ginseng. โ€

Listening to the host's explanation, Ling Zikai asked Du Juan in a low voice, "What is seed goods?"

"Seed goods means that after the artificial selection of ginseng seedlings, a specific type of ginseng seeds are sown and planted in an environment that imitates the growth of wild ginseng, and they are allowed to grow naturally, after natural selection and elimination, with almost no human intervention. If it is more than 30 years old, it can actually be said to be wild ginseng. โ€

"All the seeds planted in our forest farm should be seeds!"

The cuckoo nodded and said with some regret: "If we wait for more than twenty years to be harvested, we can sell it as wild ginseng!"

Ling Zikai said with a smile: "Why wait for twenty years, isn't the price we sell now about the same as wild ginseng!"

The cuckoo smiled a little dumbly, thinking that the price sold to Wang Di was really comparable to that of wild ginseng.

Seeing Ling Zikai's somewhat proud look, she reminded: "I think you should accept it when you see it, if everyone knows that this forest ginseng is from our Yunhai Forest Farm, I'm afraid it will attract jackals!"

Ling Zikai said nonchalantly: "I still wish it would be known to passers-by, everyone is coming to rob like crazy, don't we just sit on the ground and raise the price!"

At this moment, the host began to explain again: "The other No. 10 ginseng seedling weighs 863 grams and is five years old.

Because of its shallow age, it looks like the reed bowl is slightly long and sparse, and the reed head is a bamboo reed.

The taproot is white, fat, and tender, which is commonly known as the "white fat boy".

The ginseng whiskers are delicate and short, the lower end is long and the pearly pimple is sparse and small.

As for the reason why it can be a candidate for the king, Chairman Wang Di has already explained it to you just now, so I will not talk about it again. โ€

The host paused, and suddenly asked Wang Di: "Wang Dong, I want to ask a question that shouldn't be asked, can you tell everyone where this forest ginseng comes from?"

When the audience heard the host's question, they all lifted their spirits, and their eyes gathered curiously on Wang Di's body, and at the same time pricked up their ears and listened attentively, for fear that they would accidentally miss a word.

If you know it's a question you shouldn't ask, why do you still ask me?

Wang Di secretly scolded the host in his heart, and then pretended to be a little embarrassed, and said: "I'm really embarrassed, this ginseng is a purchaser in our company, and I bought it unintentionally." Because a large amount of ginseng was purchased at that time, there was no way to know from which ginseng farmer bought it from, and there was no way to know the exact location. Our company is also asking around, and we will tell you when we have the results!"

Hearing Wang Di say this, everyone was disappointed, and secretly scolded Wang Di, the old fox, in their hearts.

This Wang Di is also smart, he knows the truth that strange goods can be lived, and he didn't expose me. However, do you think you will be able to buy ginseng from me in the future?

Ling Zikai sighed secretly in his heart.

Originally, his impression of Wang Di was quite good, but after Wang Di hid it from himself and brought Lin Xia ginseng to participate in the King Ginseng Competition, his impression of him was greatly discounted, and he felt that this person could not be deeply acquainted.

"Now, let's auction the No. 5 ginseng. The starting price is 50,000 yuan, and each price increase cannot be less than 1,000 yuan. Who's coming first!?"

According to the current market price, such as the current 30-year-old seeds, should be around 100,000, although the starting price is a little low, but everyone understands that this price is just a disguise, and in the end it will at least double.

Sure enough, as soon as the host's voice fell, someone impatiently held up a sign and shouted: "55,000 yuan!

Immediately after that, someone shouted out the price of 60,000 yuan.

With the shouts one after another, the price of No. 5 ginseng seedlings continued to rise, and immediately broke through the integer mark of 100,000 yuan, and finally stayed at a high level of 199,000 yuan, which was photographed by a VIP of No. 15.

Ling Zikai estimated that this No. 5 understory ginseng was worth about 1230,000 yuan, but he didn't expect the price to be nearly double as high in the end, and couldn't help but sigh: "At this price, you can buy two understory ginseng in the market, and I don't know what these people think in their hearts, why do you have to stare at this one in front of you!"

Hearing Ling Zikai's words, He Ling next to him sneered and laughed, and said sarcastically: "What kind of knowledge, do you know what kind of place the auction hall is? Even if you take out a mosquito to sell, you can still sell it for a sky-high price?"

Ling Zikai just wanted to refute, but Du Juan gently touched his arm, shook his head at him, and motioned him not to quarrel with He Ling.

Ling Zikai smiled bitterly at Du Juan helplessly, feeling a little depressed, and he didn't know how he offended this aunt and grandmother, causing people to look at him unpleasantly everywhere.

"Okay, let's auction the No. 10 understory ginseng, the reserve price is still 50,000 yuan, and the price increase shall not be less than 1,000 yuan each time. โ€

Surprisingly, as the host's voice fell, the audience was silent, and after half a sound, no one bid.

The host obviously didn't expect a cold scene, coughed a little embarrassedly, and said: "Everyone doesn't seem to have confidence in this peculiar forest ginseng! โ€

While speaking, the host also deliberately looked at the collectors sitting in the VIP seat.

However, the collectors seemed to be a little hesitant and did not raise their bids.

Wang Di, who was still standing on the rostrum, also had a somewhat unsightly face. He originally thought that this forest ginseng could win the crown of the king of ginseng, and take this opportunity to promote the company's popularity, but he didn't expect that this kind of scene would occur. If it weren't for his status as a contestant, he would have been eager to raise his hand to bid.

After a long time, seeing that no one had raised a sign to bid, the host shook his head with some regret. Just when I was about to announce the auction of No. 10 Linxia, a bidding voice finally sounded in the audience: "51,000 yuan!"

The voice sounded hesitant, and there was no confidence at all.

Seeing that someone was bidding, the host breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that the other party would regret it, and he didn't wait for the bidding interval to arrive, so he opened his mouth and announced: "Okay, 51,000 yuan once, twice, three-"

Just when the host was about to drop the hammer, I saw Li Zhixian, who was sitting in the VIP seat, stand up and said, "Slow, I'll pay 52,000 yuan!"

But before Li Zhixian's words fell, someone shouted: "Fifty-five thousand yuan." โ€

Seeing that the originally lifeless scene suddenly became active as if it had been injected with stimulants, the host showed a smile on his face and said to the bidders in the audience: "Okay, this gentleman bid 55,000 yuan, is there a higher bid?"

"Sixty thousand yuan!"

Li Zhixian seemed to be somewhat interested in this No. 10 ginseng, and directly added 5,000 yuan.

"Sixty-one thousand dollars!"

"Seventy thousand. โ€

Li Zhixian looked a little wealthy, shouted out the whole number again, and at the same time looked at the bidder with some contempt, as if to say, you shoot, Lao Tzu has money, and he will directly scare you to death!

The bidder originally wanted to give up, but after seeing Li Zhixian's gaze, he couldn't help but scold: "Dead stick, do you think the people of your stick country are rich." I'm going to do it with you!Eight-no, 100,000!"

The man couldn't get used to the arrogance of this stick, and directly raised the price to 100,000.

Li Zhixian naturally did not show weakness, and quoted a price of 110,000 yuan.

At this time, the attention of the audience was attracted by the bidding of the two, and some couldn't understand why the original cold scene suddenly became popular.

He Ling said a little strangely: "This dead stick, didn't you just boast that what kind of bullshit Black Mountain is the birthplace of ginseng in the world, how can you look at the forest ginseng that has only been 5 years old at this time!"

Ling Zikai looked at Li Zhixian's inevitable appearance, and his heart couldn't help but move, secretly figuring out the other party's thoughts.

In the blink of an eye, the price of the two bidders had climbed to 190,000, and when Li Zhixian quoted 200,000, the previous bidder began to be a little unable to support it, and when the hand holding the bidding card was raised halfway, it hung down again, and it seemed that he was about to give up.

The host didn't expect that the No. 10 forest ginseng, which was thought to be unwanted, not only exceeded the auction price of No. 5, but also won the title of the king in one fell swoop, and he was a little distracted for a while.

Li Zhixian saw that he had not dropped the hammer for a long time, so he said with some dissatisfaction: "Mr. host, now that there is no one bidding, shouldn't you announce the results!"

Hearing the reminder, the host came to his senses, raised the bidding gavel, and first said as usual: "Two hundred thousand once, two hundred thousand twice-"

Seeing that no one in the audience made a sound, the host simply didn't even say anything for the third time, and directly announced: "Okay, I announce that the final bid price of No. 10 Linxia ginseng is Li from Bangzi Countryโ€”โ€”"

At this moment, Ling Zikai suddenly stood up and shouted, "Wait a minute! I'll give 210,000!"
