Chapter 168: Sky-high Price (2)
Originally, Ling Zikai was already thinking about how to get out, but he didn't expect that after the scheming He Wandong saw the clues, he immediately gave him a trick, which really made him feel like he wanted to fall asleep and someone sent him a pillow.
In the midst of his thoughts, Ling Zikai immediately pretended to be shocked, and said to He Wandong: "Uncle He, didn't we already say it before, why did you suddenly change your hexagram." Without your support, where would I have had so much money to bid on? Or if you lend me another million, I'll have to put that dead stick down!"
He Wandong saw that Ling Zikai reacted immediately, and secretly admired this kid's quick mind in his heart, and immediately understood the intention of what he had just said. Hearing him say this, he cooperated and said: "If I say I don't borrow, I won't borrow, you can find another way yourself!"
"No, you'll have to lend me at least another 500,000. ”
Ling Zikai pretended to be a lai, and regardless of whether He Wandong agreed or not, he shouted directly at the rostrum: "I will give 6.5 million." ”
I don't know if the two of them were a little anxious just now, and they had no scruples when they spoke, and their voices were a little louder, so that the people in the VIP seats could hear them clearly.
Du Juan and He Ling were a little inexplicable when they heard it, from the time they came in, Ling Zikai had always sat with them, when did they hear that he had borrowed money from He Wandong, and he had borrowed 600,000 at once?
Li Zhixian and Ling Zikai were not very far apart, and they could faintly hear the conversation between them.
Originally, he heard He Qiujiang say that Ling Zikai's forest farm still owed a huge loan of more than 2,000 yuan, and he had no funds to bid with him, thinking that he wanted to raise the price and lure himself into being fooled, so he had a plan to give up the auction, but after hearing their conversation, his mind began to activate again.
No wonder this kid looks confident, I thought he really had the strength to compete with me, it turned out that he was supported by He Wandong behind him. Could it be that He Wandong also took a fancy to the potential value of this forest ginseng, and wanted to let this surnamed Ling come forward to bid, but now the price is a little high, and he wants to give up?
Although Li Zhixian was also a little skeptical that Ling Zikai and He Wandong were acting in a double reed play for themselves, but when he saw Ling Zikai suddenly raise the price to 6.5 million, he was completely making a lonely bet and doing the last madness, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately opened his mouth to bid: "I'll pay seven million!"
He Qiujiang, who was sitting next to Li Zhixian, had been staring at Ling Zikai coldly from the beginning of the auction, always feeling that there was something wrong with it.
When he saw that Ling Zikai showed a relaxed appearance after Li Zhixian quoted a price of 700,000 yuan, he sighed in his heart and said secretly: Not good! This surnamed Ling had no intention of bidding for Lin Xia ginseng from the beginning, and it was completely a disturbance, and he set up a trick for Li Zhixian to drill into.
But at this time, Li Zhixian had already quoted the price, and the host on the stage also began to shout: "Seven million once! Seven million twice! Seven million three times!"
The host didn't dare to be careless this time, and hurriedly raised the bidding mallet after shouting, and after knocking heavily on the table, he said to Li Zhixian: "Congratulations to Mr. Li, who won the auction of this contest with a high price of 7 million!"
At this time, Li Zhixian was still contemptuous of Ling Zikai in his heart: He Wandong is unwilling to support you anymore, see what else you have to fight with me!
After this round of tense bidding, Li Zhixian felt that his whole person was a little exhausted like collapse, and now that the dust has finally settled, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Ling Zikai with smug eyes, full of provocation, and shouted in his heart: The surname Ling, you will continue to call me for a kind!
Ling Zikai looked at Li Zhixian's triumphant appearance, forcibly held back the wild laughter in his heart, and deliberately pretended to be annoyed and said: "Damn, it's really a stupid stick with a lot of money, Lao Tzu admits defeat!"
Seeing Ling Zikai take the initiative to admit defeat, Li Zhixian couldn't help but want to sneer a few words, but then Ling Zikai's words made him feel like he had been slapped in the head, and he was dumbfounded on the spot:
"Hey, I said sticks, I also have a few ginseng in my hand that are exactly the same as the ginseng king you photographed, or sell them all to you, the price is negotiable, give you a 0.01 discount, as long as 7,000 yuan." If you think it's too cheap, you can give it a whole number of 10,000 yuan! Of course, if you're willing to pay another 7 million, that's great. How's that?
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and the entire competition scene was so quiet that even the needles fell to the ground.
Even if he is a stupid person, he understands that Ling Zikai is playing people like monkeys.
Regardless of whether Ling Zikai has the same forest ginseng in his hands, one thing is certain, the purpose of his bid with Li Bangzi is very clear, that is, to raise the price and slaughter the other party fiercely.
Looking at Li Zhixian, whose expression on his face suddenly became even more ugly than his dead father, He Ling couldn't help but burst out laughing, and said to Ling Zikai: "Although what you said is a little damaged, but listening to the relief, I didn't expect you to be quite humorous!"
Li Zhixian's eyes almost erupted with fire when he looked at Ling Zikai. Although it lost 7 million dollars, it is nothing in terms of the value of the Montenegro Group.
What he can't tolerate is that he was slapped in the face by the other party like this, and in the future, in the entire industry, this incident will be treated as a joke that people talk about after dinner, damaging not only his own reputation, but also the entire Montenegro Ginseng Group.
No, I have to find a way to overturn the auction result. Otherwise, how will I explain to my father and the board of directors of the group when I go back!
Thinking of this, Li Zhixian suddenly shouted loudly: "This is a conspiracy! I suspect that someone wants to take advantage of this auction to carry out a conspiracy to retaliate against me and our Black Mountain Group of the Bangzi Country. Therefore, I announce the results of this auction, and I and our Montenegrin Ginseng Group will not recognize it!"
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar!
Everyone didn't expect that Li Zhixian would regret it in public, isn't this a clear scoundrel!
The competition and auction were jointly organized by the Northern Provincial Forestry Department and the Hung Yen Municipal Government, and Li Zhixian questioned the fairness of the auction, isn't he questioning the authority of the government?
Moreover, Li Zhixian's so-called conspiracy is completely out of thin air, with obvious slander, if the rumors go out, and then some people with ulterior motives exaggerate and spread false rumors, maybe it will really evolve into a retaliatory act against foreign businessmen by Huaxia State.
"Dead stick, you're so fucking shameless!"
"This is obviously because I feel that I have suffered a loss and I don't want to pay for it!"
"The people of this stick country are really dogs, in addition to shaking their heads and tails, they will also be skinny!"
At this moment, not only was the crowd angry, but even the leaders sitting in the front row of the VIP seats frowned, feeling that Li Zhixian was completely unreasonable.
It's just that they won't talk loudly like those ordinary people, and while holding the silence, they looked at Zhang Jiefang, the executive vice governor with the highest position in the audience, waiting for his instructions.
Zhang Jiefang's face was unhappy, and he said to an official next to him: "Director Liu, you are the person in charge of the organizing committee of the competition, you can deal with this matter!"
After Director Liu was ordered, he didn't dare to slack off, stood up, and said to Li Zhixian: "Mr. Li, you can eat one bite at a time, but you can't talk casually! You said that someone tried to retaliate against you and the Montenegrin group and engaged in a conspiracy, do you have any evidence?"
At this time, there was a lot of discussion in the venue, and the voices around him were a little chaotic, although Li Zhixian saw Director Liu standing up and saying a few words to himself, he couldn't hear it clearly, and asked, "What did you say?"
Director Liu frowned and glanced at the host.
The host immediately came to his senses, hurriedly ran over, and handed the microphone in his hand to Director Liu.
Director Liu took the microphone and repeated what he had just said.
Li Zhixian said: "Anyone can see this, and what evidence do you need! You are a government official of Huaxia State! I now strongly demand that you must investigate this matter thoroughly, otherwise I will apply to the embassy of our Bang Country to come forward and lodge a strong diplomatic protest with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Huaxia State." ”
Hearing that Li Zhixian was going to take the matter to the embassy, Director Liu's expression suddenly became serious, and he said: "Mr. Li, this is just an ordinary business activity, and there is no need to lodge a diplomatic protest? However, until the investigation is clear, please refrain from making any more statements that have no factual basis. ”
After hearing Director Liu's answer, Li Zhixian was overjoyed in his heart, and secretly said: These officials of the Huaxia Kingdom are really easy to deal with, and a diplomatic protest has frightened them! Should I put some more pressure on them, and it is best to let them cancel the bidding results of this auction.
Thinking of this, Li Zhixian pretended to be indignant and said, "I don't care how you investigate, but I think the bidding results of this auction are invalid, and you must cancel them." ”
Regarding Li Zhixian's request, Director Liu didn't dare to agree casually, glanced at Zhang Jiefang, and wanted to ask him to make a statement.
Director Liu's ability to do things made Zhang Jiefang feel a little dissatisfied, stood up and directly stepped forward to take the microphone from Director Liu's hand, and said to Li Zhixian: "Didn't you ask us to investigate this matter clearly? Okay, I'll ask you a few questions now."
The first question is, did someone force you to come forward to participate in the auction?"
Li Zhixian recognized Zhang Jiefang as the highest-ranking official in the entire venue, and when he saw that he directly came forward to negotiate with him, he was even more sure that these officials of the Huaxia Kingdom were unwilling to make a big deal out of the matter, so he said a little arrogantly: "I am a citizen of the Bangzi Country, and any of you people in the Huaxia Kingdom dare to force me!"
"Since no one forced you, it means that you will participate in this auction voluntarily. ”
After Zhang Jiefang affirmed Li Zhixian's answer, he continued to ask: "The second question is, did someone force you to shout the price of seven million in the auction just now?"
After listening to Zhang Jiefang's question, Li Zhixian felt that the development of things seemed to be a little wrong with the direction he expected, but he still replied stubbornly: "I still say the same thing, no one in you Huaxia Kingdom dares to force me to do anything!"
