Chapter 038: Auction
38. Auctions
"Boss, there will be an auction of two plots of land tomorrow, according to reliable sources, the Chen Group has borrowed 2 billion yuan from the bank this time, which can be said to be inevitable!" After arriving at the hotel, Guo Qing said to me.
"Oh, then we'll go to the auction tomorrow and grab these two plots of land. I said right away.
"Well, the location of these two plots of land is good, and there will definitely be money to be made after taking them!" Guo Qing said: "But one of the plots is a little problematic......
"What's the problem?" I suddenly realized that this might be a good opportunity to put the Chen family together.
"One of the sites in Kowloon is not allowed to build more than three storeys of commercial residential buildings due to historical reasons!" Kwok explained.
"In that case, why would the Chen family want to buy this land? Don't he know? It's unlikely!" I asked.
"It's true that the Chen family has known about these for a long time, but the location of that piece of land is very good, and if you buy it, it will be very profitable to build a commercial building or a residence!" Guo Qing said.
"But if there is a problem with the land itself, no matter how good the location is, it is useless!" I asked.
"It's not the same here as the mainland, whether you can build a high-rise is not up to the planning department, I think the Chen family has already opened up the relationship through insiders, as soon as the land is in hand, the planning department will revise the terms!" Guo Qing said.
"Does the ICAC here care?" I remember on TV, XG's ICAC was very powerful.
"Hehe, this kind of thing is usually done very secretively, and there is no evidence. Coupled with the Chen family's current power in XG, few people will take the initiative to offend them!" Guo Qing said: "After all, this place has just returned to the motherland, and it still retains the style of the capitalist market. ”
I nodded, then thought for a while and asked, "Is the news that the Chen family has borrowed two billion yuan accurate?"
"Exactly, the bank he borrowed from is just within the scope of our Three Stone Gang, although the officials in that bank are all from the Chen family, but he doesn't have the courage to hide what the Three Stone Gang wants to know! Besides, they don't know that Chen Zelong has provoked us in the mainland. Guo Qing said.
"That's good, let's participate in this auction tomorrow! Give him a chicken and a flying egg, and the bamboo basket will be empty. I said.
"Okay, boss, I'm going to transfer five billion dollars and play them to death. Guo Qing said.
I waved my hand and said, "Guo Zi, the development of the Three Stone Gang also needs money, you don't have to worry about funds, I have it here." ”
"Boss, what you said is not right, my money is not yours!" Guo Qing said.
I was moved in my heart, this person is the only good brother I have since I was reborn, and I have nothing to say about my feelings.
"Hehe, I mean to say, we're going to play the Chen family to bankruptcy this time, where is five billion enough!" I laughed.
"Ahh......h The current liquidity of the Sanshi Gang can also come up with these, and it will be 5.5 billion at most!" Guo Qing was a little embarrassed.
"So you should keep this little money for the affairs of the development gang, your boss and I have money!" I patted Guo Qing on the shoulder and said.
"Okay then!" Guo Qing knew my temper, so he stopped arguing with me, so he said: "I'll let my men go down and get a few tickets for the auction!"
At night, Guo Qing and I studied tomorrow's plan like this...... Wow Ka Ka, that Chen family is just waiting to cry.
Guo Qing has become a celebrity in the business and political circles of XG in the past few months, as long as you mix in XG, there is no one who does not know Guo Qing! You can not know the governor of Hong Kong, you don't know the popular stars, but you just can't help but know Guo Qing, otherwise you are joking with your own "money" and your own life!
So when Guo Qing appeared at this auction venue, everyone present was suspicious, I don't know what Guo Qing meant by this move, when I learned that Guo Qing was the chairman of the newly established Sanshi Real Estate to attend the auction to participate in the auction, a few real estate developers who originally wanted to participate in the bidding left directly. The rest of the people were lucky, thinking that Guo Qing was just here to join in the fun, so they continued to stay here, after all, the temptation of these two pieces of land was too great!
"Secretary Chen, what do you mean by the establishment of such a real estate company by the Three Stone Gang?" asked a person from the young men's team who looked extremely bad. And this person is Chen Zelong!
"Young master, the real estate industry is still very profitable, if it weren't for our family, I think the Qingbang would have been involved in the real estate industry a long time ago!" Secretary Chen said.
"Damn, this green gang, Lao Tzu gives them so much money every year, but now they can't even compete with a foreign gang!" Chen Zelong scolded a little angrily.
"Be quiet, young master, if we let the people of the Three Stone Gang hear it, we won't have a good time!" Secretary Chen reminded carefully.
"I'm afraid of Mao! Lao Tzu has money, it's a big deal to take out 100 million and smash them to death!" Chen Zelong said nonchalantly.
Secretary Chen shook his head and didn't say anything, he originally wanted to persuade Chen Zelong again, but after thinking about it, what Chen Zelong said was right, it was a big deal to use money to buy the Sanshi Gang just like when he subdued the Qing Gang. They think that no matter how rich the underworld is, it is impossible to have too much money, and how can it be compared with the Chen family, which has a big family! But their thinking is simply wrong.
……
"The first auction is a plot of land in Yau Ma Tei, which has detailed information in the auction brochure and has a reserve price of 230 million ......," the auctioneer said.
In fact, this land is not very good compared to the land in Kowloon, the area is not very large, but it is close to the sea, and it is still very ideal if you build a villa.
As soon as the words of the auctioneer of the "three ......" fell, a fat man was about to raise the price of 300 million, but before he could finish speaking, Guo Qing stood up and coughed violently.
"Ahem! I'll give 240 million!" Guo Qing said slowly.
The fat man was so frightened that he quickly took the sign back, almost didn't have a heart attack, and secretly called it a fluke, thanks to his quick reaction, otherwise if it was because he raised the price, he didn't know how to disappear from this planet at that time.
The remaining real estate developers who were trying to bid saw Guo Qing bidding first, and they all dispelled the idea of continuing to bid. They don't want to have money to buy land and build a house.
"Damn, why does he have so much money!" Chen Zelong said angrily.
"......" Secretary Chen doesn't understand, how can this Sanshi Gang be so rich, you must know that the annual profit of the Green Gang is only a few million!
"Secretary Chen, shall we bid?" Although Chen Zelong is arrogant, he is also afraid of death, at present, the Three Stone Gang has no friendship with their Chen Group, who knows what these underworld will do.
"Forget it, this piece of land has been given to him, let's spend our main energy on the next piece of land!" Secretary Chen said.
……
In this way, the first piece of land was successfully arranged by Guo Qing, which is the same plan we studied yesterday.
Although the area of the second piece of land is larger than the first piece and the location is better than the first piece, it is a problem piece of land, so the reserve price is set lower than the first piece, but the people present know very well that the location of this land is a commercial area, and the commercial value it can create will be infinite!
When the auctioneer announced the second piece of land, the real estate developers present were quiet for a while, and they all looked at Guo Qing secretly, no one dared to quote first, but Guo Qing was like a good person, as if this land had nothing to do with him at all, and at this moment he actually talked and laughed with the little brother next to him.
And I, who was sitting not far from Guo Qing, broke the silence at this moment, held up a sign and shouted: "500 million!"
The reserve price of this land is 140 million, but I directly raised the price to 500 million. At this time, I represent a different company from Guo Qing, and on the surface, we are like two groups of people who don't know each other, and the company I represent is a construction company that has just been established in the mainland.
The people present looked at me strangely, and when they saw the company's name brand on my table, they were all relieved, thinking, it turned out to be a new company from the mainland, no wonder they dared to be the first to bid!
They thought that Guo Qing would continue to bid or directly attack, but they didn't expect to wait for a long time and didn't see any movement, and at this time the auctioneer was about to knock on the gavel. The auctioneer is also very strange, he knows what Guo Qing is doing, so it is normal for no one to dare to bid on a piece of land, but the person who bids on the second piece of land has never seen it.
When the reflected land producers finally realized that Guo Qing was not interested in the second piece of land at all, they all began to bid for it.
"Billion!" Chen Zelong didn't get the first piece of land, and he was angry, seeing that the second piece of land was gone, the Three Stone Gang was making trouble from the middle, and immediately joined the bidding.
However, other real estate developers are not vegetarians, everyone knows the potential value of that land, although Chen Zelong paid one billion, but the fat man who bid for the first time just now immediately raised a sign and shouted: "Eleven billion!"
"1.2 billion!" Chen Zelong quoted without hesitation, and scolded in his heart: Dead fat man, who usually calls me brothers, now he actually grabs the ground with me!
"1.3 billion!" the fat man said as he wiped his sweat and gritted his teeth.
"1.5 billion!" Chen Zelong has already lost a piece of land, and this piece is bound to be gained.
The fat man pondered for a long time, and finally put down the sign, no matter how high it was, although there was a profit to be made, but the fat man couldn't take out so much money to pay the land price.
"Sixteen billion!" I said, holding up the sign.
