Chapter 231: Ornamental Fish Auction (Part II)
Chapter 231 Ornamental Fish Auction (Part II)
ā¦ā¦
As a pair of top-notch ornamental fish carefully prepared by Wang Zheng were auctioned one after another, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more high. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Even Ma Yun, who didn't raise fish in the first place, spent 7.5 million to shoot a pair of 'golden-topped purple robes' when he was approaching the back!
"Brother, you've made a lot of money this time. When this auction is over, I'm afraid that the investment of Taoyuan Western restaurant chain will come out!" Ma Yun said with a smile.
"How can it be so easy, when the auction is over, I will be very satisfied if I can solve half of the 400 million investment!" Wang Zheng said.
"Brother Wang's requirements are too low. Even if you don't add the 80 million you earned from me in Lao Ma's house last time. Now the auction has 34 consecutive auction funds, which add up to 162 million yuan! There are four pairs of ornamental fish in the back, especially the finale lot, which is not inferior to the one-meter-long red arowana and koi fish in the previous auction! In this way, the turnover of 200 million yuan is really not much!"
After a pause, Liu Qianyi glanced at Wang Zheng with a smile, "Speaking of the finale, the time is about the same now, shouldn't Brother Wang reveal it in advance?"
Ma Yun was also very interested in this topic, so after Liu Qianyi finished speaking, he also shifted his gaze.
Facing the attentive eyes of the two, Wang Zheng smiled, "Since the time is about the same, the two brothers might as well wait and see." Otherwise, if I uncover the mystery in advance, then the rest of the puzzle will be boring!"
"Congratulations to guest No. 89 for successfully auctioning the 35th pair of lots '80cm Silver Dragon'...... Now, let's take a look at the 36th pair of lots '70cm Silver Leopard Duck's Beak', with a reserve price of 500,000 yuan, and each price increase shall not be less than 20,000 yuan......!
Listening to the high-pitched voice of the auctioneer on the stage, who was still full of excitement, Ma Yun shook his head, "Forget it, Lao Liu still don't ask." Brother Wang is right, if the mystery is solved in advance, then the auction will be boring!"
Liu Qianyi shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "Okay, since you all think so, then I don't have any opinion." It's not too late anyway!"
Soon, under the repeated encouragement of the auctioneer, the pair of 'Silver Leopard Duck's Beak' was sold at a price of 2.04 million.
The 37th pair followed by a pair of 25-centimetre 'golden-crowned violet robes', but it is unclear whether the sale of the first five pairs of the same fish consumed people's curiosity, or whether the subsequent finale counteracted everyone's enthusiasm. In short, compared with the average transaction price of 7.6 million yuan for the first five teams, the transaction price of the final sixth pair of 'Golden Top Purple Robes' is only 6 million!
This somewhat made Wang Zheng a little dissatisfied. But this emotion only flashed through his mind. Because the final finale has already appeared on the big screens on both sides of the auction table.
Although he is the boss behind the auction, not a participant. But when the thirty-eighth pair of top-level ornamental fish came out, he still couldn't help but have some anticipation and even excitement in his heart.
"Dear gentlemen and ladies, after 35 auctions, we are now at the end of the 36th, which is the time for the final finale!
After speaking, two red and white koi fish suddenly appeared on the big screens on both sides of the auction table.
Because there was no information and data on the finale lot in everyone's auction brochure, it immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience when it was played on the big screen.
Moreover, in order to be able to display the pair of lots in the final finale more clearly, Wang Zheng specially made a short video. In addition, in order to highlight the huge size of a pair of carps, Wang Zheng also added a person to it. This contrast gives people a more intuitive feeling.
In addition to the unique advantage of body shape, these two koi fish have the most perfect performance. For example, the red and white 'cut edges' are neat, and the white background is pure, as pure as winter snow. Red as blood, rich and elegant. The red spots are distributed in front of the head but not on the mouth, and the eyes are not lower on both sides. The 'shoulder cleft' on the back of the head and the 'tail knot' on the caudal peduncle are just right. In addition, the 'curl belly' is also very beautiful, and when placed in the aquarium, you can clearly appreciate the magnificent color of the koi belly.
"Red and white koi, the most ornamental species of all koi. And the pair of red and white koi fish we see now have reached the apex of red and white koi in terms of body shape and suit color. Especially his length of 120 centimeters, he can be called the emperor of red and white koi. And the red and white koi fish with such a body shape and perfection in all aspects are the only pair in the world, and there is no more. Therefore, friends who like red and white koi must not miss this opportunity. ā
āā¦ā¦ Now, I announce that the thirty-sixth pair, a pair of 120 cm red and white koi, will have an auction reserve price of 50 million, and each increase shall not be less than 100,000, and the bidding will start now!"
The auctioneer's words fell, and there was no fierce bidding in the field as Wang Zheng had expected, but a little calm. Except for the head-to-head discussions, a minute passed, and still no one made a bid.
Seeing this situation, Wang Zheng couldn't help but become anxious. If the well-prepared finale fails, the role of this auction, which is already close to success, will be cut in half, and it will be an absolute blow to Taoyuan Villa, which is in dire need of making a name for itself in the ornamental fish world. In the future, it will not be easy to sell ornamental fish for sky-high prices.
"Don't be impatient, the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. Moreover, it is only the 'calm before the storm', but it is only the person who breaks this peace!"
Ma Yun smiled and comforted.
Compared with Wang Zheng, who has only participated in one Guardian auction, Ma Yun undoubtedly has more experience.
"Hmm!"
Wang Zheng nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. However, he was still a little less composed. Even though he has tried to calm down, there is still a trace of tension and concern on his face.
However, the horse, who saw his expression in his eyes, didn't say much when he arrived. When he was young, he lacked concentration even more than Wang Zheng.
"Lao Liu, it's time for you to make a move!"
"Hehe, I knew you were going to look for me! But why didn't you raise your card yourself?" Liu Qianyi said.
"Don't you like to raise fish! But since you said so, then I'll do it!" The words fell, and before Liu Qianyi could react, Ma Yun had already raised the bidding auction in his hand.
"60 million!"
"60 million, Mr. 2 bid 60 million, is there anything higher?"
The silence at the auction was broken by the horse luck that acted as a catfish, and the experienced auctioneer immediately seized the opportunity to agitate loudly.
"60.5 million!"
Ma Yun's bid caused a commotion at the scene. The influence of the world's richest man has attracted a lot of attention to his words and deeds.
So, after he made a bid, there were soon some people who couldn't help it.
However, compared to the courage of 10 million at a time, the increase of 500,000 is insignificant. However, soy sauce is enough.
Because after him, the price of 61 million, 62 million rose all the way, and soon broke through 70 million!
Seeing this, Wang Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. The tense nerves also relaxed.
"Brother Ma, thank you!"
Seeing Wang Zheng's sincere appearance, Ma Yun smiled and waved his hand, signaling that he didn't have to care.
Liu Qianyi, who was on the side, couldn't help but say: "Old Ma, you are too unauthentic." Just now you asked me to make a move, but I haven't moved, and you have raised your card yourself......!"
"Lao Liu, you can't blame me for this, you yourself refused first!"
"You're ......!"
Looking at his old friend's self-inflicted expression, Liu Qianyi shook his head with a smile. Bai let this guy earn Wang Zheng's favor.
"80 million!"
At this time, Wang Ying, who was sitting next to Wang Zheng, poked Wang Zheng's waist and said in an excited tone.
"I know!"
There was also a hint of trembling in Wang Zheng's tone. Obviously, his heart was not as calm as his face appeared at the moment.
Looking at the auction prices that were still rising alternately, Wang Ying said enviously: "Wang Zheng, to be honest. Now I can't help but want to raise fish with you. MD, this money is too easy to make. When the finale lot is sold, plus your previous 80 million, the income from selling fish this time will exceed 300 million. More than 300 million, I haven't earned such a net worth for so many years in the industry, but I didn't expect you to earn it in less than a week. ā
"Okay, don't envy me, you just see that I've sold for so much money now. But I didn't think about how much I spent on buying them before, or even when I domesticated them in the middle. Without that, I'm just making some hard-earned money!"
"That's just as well!"
After thinking about it for a while, Wang Ying nodded in agreement.
It is certainly not possible to raise such a large fish in two or three years, and the investment in domestication in the early stage must be extremely amazing.
"Speaking of which, Brother Wang, I'm a little curious. If you raise these fish to such a big size, I am afraid that you will not be able to do it for five or six years, or even longer. After five or six years, the general domesticators basically have feelings for their own fish, and rarely sell them to the outside, so it has caused the scarcity of high-grade ornamental fish in the market and the high price. ā¦ā¦ So, where did you buy them from?"
This topic, not only Liu Qianyi is curious, but even Ma Yun and Wang Ying are also eager to get answers from Wang Zheng.
However, when it comes to the secrets of the Shennong system, Wang Zheng will definitely not tell outsiders.
Therefore, facing three pairs of concerned eyes, Wang Zheng shook his head decisively.
"I'm sorry, everyone, it involves our Taoyuan Villa's trade secrets, so ......!"
Wang Zheng's refusal inevitably made the faces of Ma Yun and the three of them show disappointment. However, they were not ordinary people, and they quickly collected their mood and changed the topic.
On the premise of not wanting to ruin the relationship between each other, naturally no one will get to the bottom of the problem that others do not want to answer. (To be continued.) )
