Chapter 101: The Owner
Miao Wentang squirmed his lower lips and sighed secretly in his heart. Then he pulled Tang Xiu's sleeve with his hand and whispered, "Tang ...... Tang Xiu, this auction is not a joke! If the funds are not enough, but the price is falsely reported, not only will there be huge compensation, but also a heavy blow from the auction house. The organizer of this bauhinia auction, the big man behind the scenes, is very terrifying. β
Tang Xiu glanced at the short message displayed on the screen of his mobile phone, the corners of his mouth outlined a curved arc, and said with a light smile: "Don't do porcelain work without diamonds." Don't worry!"
Miao Wentang opened his mouth and finally gave up persuasion.
He felt that Tang Xiu couldn't take out so much money, even if Tang Xiu was very powerful, but he was too young after all, a young man around twenty years old, even if he had money in the family, it was impossible for him to transfer too much.
Front row.
The smile and smugness on the fat middle-aged man's face froze in an instant, he turned his head with difficulty, and the moment he saw Tang Xiu, he jumped up directly from the chair and roared: "Nonsense! He is deliberately making trouble." I really don't believe he can come up with 2.5 billion to buy an island. β
His words were approved by the vast majority of people in the auction hall, and the discussion sounded again:
"Yes, how old is he, and his hair hasn't grown up, right? How can he spend 2.5 billion to buy an island? This auction is not a joke, doesn't he know the consequences of lying about the price?"
"Young people nowadays! It's not 250,000 or 2.5 million to buy Kowloon Island! That's 2.5 billion. With so many of us here, four-fifths of our personal assets are probably less than that. β
"This kid was kicked in the head by a donkey? The fat man snatched the thousand-year-old ginseng from him before, and he actually held a grudge, and now he deliberately raised the price. Didn't he see that the fat man had reached his limit. It's simply not possible to increase the price at all!"
"Stupid fellow, I don't know what he thinks! That fat man in case no more price increases. I'm afraid that he will be difficult to ride a tiger, and he will be unlucky. β
"Stupid ......"
ββ¦β¦β
Tang Xiu's hearing is keen. He could hear the chatter all around. However, he didn't explain, but the smile on his face slowly faded.
Auctioneer Xiao Ai was also full of worries at this moment. She knew one thing, if Tang Xiu finally obtained the right to purchase Kowloon Island, but couldn't come up with so much money, the auction would be considered yellow. Not only did she not get a penny in commission. Even her status at the auction will plummet.
But!
She knew one thing better, at the time of the auction, she had no right to inquire about the amount of funds Tang Xiu had.
What to do?
Auctioneer Xiao Ai looked at the fat middle-aged man with a headache, and then set his eyes on Tang Xiu.
The fat middle-aged man glared at Tang Xiu angrily, and said loudly again: "Auctioneer, I'll ask that kid to show proof of funds." Otherwise, your auction house will not only be discredited, but also disappoint the customers who come to your auction house. β
The auctioneer took a deep look at Tang Xiu, and finally said helplessly to the fat middle-aged man: "Sir." I'm sorry, but I don't have that right. β
Tang Xiu didn't look at the fat middle-aged, but said to the auctioneer, "I want to ask." Someone is making trouble at the auction, what will your auction house do? For example, a dead fat man who can't afford to lose, but jumps off the wall in a hurry. β
"Boy, you're looking for death!"
The fat middle-aged man was furious, glaring at Tang Xiu and yelling.
The auctioneer Xiao Ai secretly screamed in his heart, hurriedly took a few steps forward, and said loudly: "Sir, it doesn't matter if others buy it or not, since he has already made a bid." He is the one who deals with our auction house. Also, since he has already made an offer. The matter is a matter for our auction house and him, and you have no right to interfere. Please be seated. We're going to keep the auction. I would like to ask, do you still want to increase the price?"
ββ¦β¦β
The fat middle-aged man turned red, full of anger but had nowhere to vent. Although he has a bit of background and some strength, he doesn't dare to go against this auction house. In desperation, he could only choose to swallow his anger and sit down in silence.
The auctioneer Xiao Ai breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and was a little disappointed when he saw that the fat middle-aged man did not make another offer, but he still said: "The current bidding price of Kowloon Island is 2.5 billion. Is there a higher price? If not, this Kowloon Island will be the handsome gentleman from now on. β
No one spoke.
Everyone looked at Tang Xiu and wanted to wait for a result.
"I declare that the owner of Kowloon Island is this handsome gentleman. Please take your ID and follow me to the back office to complete the transaction procedures. Auctioneer Xiao Ai stared at Tang Xiu and said with an expectant face.
Tang Xiu got up and walked towards the backstage of the auction venue.
The fat middle-aged man also stood up suddenly, he glanced at Tang Xiu resentfully, and shouted loudly: "Don't leave the big guys, let's go over and have a look! I want to see and see, can a kid who hasn't grown any hair come up with two and a half billion." β
"Yes, let's take a look. β
"Okay!
"Well, let's go!"
None of the people chose to leave, but rushed to the backstage. They wanted to know if Tang Xiu could come up with that much money. If they can come up with it, they also want to witness this sky-high deal.
Miao Wentang and Shao Mingzhen walked towards the backstage with a wry smile on their faces. If it was one billion and eight billion, the two of them could scrape together the money and help Tang Xiu pay in advance, but it was very difficult for the two of them to take out the huge amount of 2.5 billion.
Backstage of the auction house.
The steward already knew the cause and effect of the matter, his gaze swept over everyone, and finally fell on Tang Xiu, and said with a smile: "Mr. Tang, congratulations." β
"Hmm!"
Tang Xiu nodded, handed over the bank card and said:
"Let's transfer money!"
The steward took the bank card, and called a few assistants to quickly handle the transfer, and when the 2.5 billion was transferred away, he immediately asked several assistants to help Tang Xiu handle the transaction procedures, fill in the purchase contract and other matters.
"Really...... Can you really afford it?"
The fat middle-aged man was dumbfounded, and the people who had ridiculed Tang Xiu in private before were also dumbfounded. They watched in a daze as Tang Xiu quickly went through various procedures under the guidance of the staff, looking at each other one by one, with an embarrassed look on their faces.
What is a slap in the face?
Tonight's auction is called a slap in the face.
The fat middle-aged man was ashamed and almost found a crack in the ground to get into, and those people also felt as if they had a pair of invisible slaps on their faces. Even, even Miao Wentang and Shao Mingzhen were secretly ashamed.
The Bauhinia Auction was successfully concluded.
After Tang Xiu went through various procedures, he ushered in a large number of guests. These people have a strong identity background in China, and Rao is Tang Xiu has extremely poor emotional intelligence, and he is not willing to offend them lightly. After barely coping with it, he immediately left quickly with Miao Wentang, Shao Mingzhen, and Ziyi Zhenren.
Half an hour later.
In the presidential suite on the top floor of the Garvis Hotel, Tang Xiu returned the 80 million he had borrowed from Jia Ruidao. He called Chen Zhizhong's bank account again and transferred the remaining 500 million yuan back to him. Therefore, there are still 90 million left in Tang Xiu's account.
"Two and a half billion foreign debts!"
After Tang Xiu dealt with these things, he couldn't help but smack his lips.
As the saying goes: if there are more lice, you are not afraid of biting, and if there are too many accounts, you will not worry.
But this sentence is very inappropriate for Tang Xiu. He is a man with clear grievances, public and private affairs. Although Chen Zhizhong is his registered disciple, private affection does not mean that private property is shared, and the money does not mean that Chen Zhizhong respects him.
"We have to speed up the pace of making money. β
Tang Xiu walked to the window and looked at the starry sky, all kinds of thoughts churning in his mind. After a long time, he remembered something, left the suite, and knocked on the door of the presidential suite next door.
In the suite next door.
Miao Wentang and Shao Mingzhen didn't go directly to rest, they were smoking cigarettes in the bright living room, chatting first.
"Brother Shao, I'm really interested in Tang Xiu's identity now. But the more I investigated, the more I felt that he was very mysterious, mysterious to the point of incredibly Cheng dΓΉ. Miao Wentang spit out a stream of eye circles and said quietly.
Shao Mingzhen smiled bitterly: "Not only do you feel this way, so do I." The information I got showed that Tang Xiu's family background was ordinary, he belonged to a single-parent family, and he had no big background. What I can't believe the most is that he once had a car accident and spent a year in a mess. According to the investigation, he was like a fool that year. But can a fool do something very sensational?"
Miao Wentang nodded and said: "His life background is as simple as a blank piece of paper, even if he has filled in some colors recently, it is only recently, and it has something to do with the Dragon family in Star City." What I want to know most is his background. However, in terms of investigation data, no clues have been investigated at all. β
Shao Mingzhen nodded and sighed: "Yes, he also wants to know where he tudied! I want to know which terrifying big man can train such a powerful young talent." And tonight, he spent a full 25.6 billion. This amount is a very large amount of money for us, but he can get it lightly. I'm also curious about where this money comes from. β
Miao Wentang's expression moved, and he asked, "Why don't I ask someone to check it?" I should be able to find out the source of the money." β
Shao Ming shook his head: "Don't." Tang Xiu was able to get so much money, which shows that there are definitely powerful people behind him that we don't know. If we send someone to investigate him and he finds out, I'm afraid he will be very angry. The little friendship we have with him will probably be broken. β
"Alas, it is. β
Miao Wentang sighed helplessly.
Shao Mingzhen said slowly: "Let's not delve into the matter of Tang Xiu's identity. The most important thing now is that we can be clear about one thing: the benefits of his friendship outweigh the disadvantages. Tomorrow's trip to the Evil Dragon Sea is a good time for us to fight side by side and get closer to each other, and we must seize it. β
"It's still a good time to get rich. β
Miao Wentang heard this and grinned. (To be continued.) )
