Chapter Ninety-Nine: Bidding (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Everyone in the entire auction hall was shocked by this sudden voice, even Tang Xiu, who regarded money as dung, did not expect that in this era when almost no one recognized the Split Sky Stone, there would be someone willing to buy it at such a high price.
Tang Xiu looked at the source of the sound and found that the guest who made the offer was an old man in a black tunic with white hair, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and he looked like an old and kind man. However, in the face of everyone's gaze, he showed a smug look. Especially when he found Tang Xiu looking over, he cocked his chin even more and handed Tang Xiu a provocative look.
"Trouble!"
Tang Xiu sighed in his heart, and raised the bidding card again: "Sixty million." ”
Wow......
The entire auction hall was boiling, and everyone's eyes were hovering between Tang Xiu and the old man. As the saying goes: When things go wrong, there must be demons. Some people with active minds are already secretly speculating: Could it be that that rare ore is really a treasure?
But.
Speculation is speculation, but no one is scrambling. The reason is very simple, even if the ore is precious, they don't understand it at all, and if they buy it and become worthless, it will really be a big injustice. Besides, the old man who bid for the bid had a slightly ugly face, but he never opened his mouth to quote again!
Tang Xiu looked at the old man in the distance with a smile fixed on his face, his face was more ugly than that of his dead father and mother. He found that the old man squirmed his lips several times, trying to make an offer, but in the end he was arrested.
"What's going on?"
Tang Xiu originally planned to bleed profusely, but he didn't expect the other party to stop there.
The auctioneer's eyes flashed with excitement, and he said in an agitative tone: "There is a good saying, the eyes of the masses are bright. I quote a saying: don't miss when you walk by. If this ore is not a rare treasure, who will auction it at a high price? I am lucky and feel happy. Able to witness powerful people with vision, able to identify treasures with eyes like torches. ”
"That handsome gentleman. Bid 60 million. Is there a higher price? If not, this rare treasure. It's going to belong to that gentleman. ”
"Anything else?"
The chatter in the auction hall became silent as the auctioneer ended. Everyone's eyes lingered on Tang Xiu and the old man. They wondered if the old man would make an offer. Even, there were already people who were ready to grab it as soon as the old man bid for it again.
As the auctioneer said: don't miss it when you pass by.
In case of!
In case that ore is really a rare treasure. Even if they don't know each other yet, if they buy it back and study it slowly, maybe there will be a big surprise.
However!
To the disappointment of many people, the old man did not make another offer.
The auctioneer felt a little regretful, but she was still very excited, she didn't expect this ore to fetch a high price. As an auctioneer, she can get a commission of 1/10,000 for each item, and now that this item has been auctioned for 60 million, she can easily get some windfall.
"I declare that this precious ore has been acquired by that gentleman. You can now go to the back office and trade. You can also wait for the auction to end, and then go back to the back office......"
Tang Xiu didn't hesitate, and immediately rushed to the backstage. The Void Splitter was a precious ore that he desperately needed right now. He had to get his hands on it as soon as possible.
Acceptance!
Payment!
The transaction went smoothly, and soon Tang Xiu returned to his seat in the auction hall with the Sky Splitting Stone.
Miao Wentang had a smile on the corner of his mouth, although his heart was full of confusion, he didn't understand why Tang Xiu had to buy that piece of ore, but this was Tang Xiu's*, he didn't ask more, but smiled and whispered: "Congratulations to Mr. Tang for winning the treasure." ”
"Hmm!"
Tang Xiu nodded, hesitated, and said, "Change your name to me in the future!" Call me Tang Xiu directly. I will also call you by name. ”
"This ...... Good! ”
Miao Wentang looked at Tang Xiu's indifferent expression. I smiled bitterly in my heart.
The auction of items went on very quickly, and Tang Xiu also admired the auctioneer who could speak well. Many items were not too valuable in the first place. But in the encouragement of her witty words, many people's feelings were mobilized. The generosity of the goods has led to an increase in the price of the items.
"Talent!"
In Tang Xiu's mind, this word suddenly appeared.
In the wee hours of the morning.
The auction is coming to an end, and it is also the final highlight of the auction.
"The auction below is the penultimate item of our auction. It is also a treasure that countless people pay attention to: thousand-year-old ginseng. As we all know, in today's era of rapid development of science and technology and the strict development of forest and mountain ranges, it is already very difficult to get real wild ginseng. And the thousand-year-old wild ginseng is even rarer, and the few are pitiful. ”
"Such a treasure, who can get it tonight?"
"I announce, the auction begins!"
After the auctioneer Xiao Ai finished speaking, he took a step back and said that he would hand over the bidding stage to the visitors below.
"Sixty million!"
"Seventy million!"
"Seventy-five million!"
"80 million ......"
“……”
Tang Xiu was not in a hurry to participate, he was waiting for the final competition.
However!
The price has risen all the way, and in just two minutes, it has risen to 180 million. This price is not something that he can buy with the funds he has now.
"It's 10 million now, and I'm afraid it won't be that number later. Could it be that he really wants to borrow money from Jia Ruidao? Jia Ruidao got 250 million, plus his principal, it should be more than 300 million, but he still owes foreign debts, and after paying off foreign debts, I'm afraid there is not much left. ”
Tang Xiu's mind turned sharply, and he hesitated to borrow money from Jia Ruidao. Moreover, it is easy to borrow money, but is it difficult to repay it? After all, it is hundreds of millions of funds at every turn, even if the funds can invite Kangxia to work for themselves, even if they are ready to set up a company to make money in business, how long will it take to earn hundreds of millions of funds? How long will it take to pay off Jia Ruidao's money?
Half a minute later.
Tang Xiu made a decision in his heart: borrow.
He believed in his abilities and did not want to miss this thousand-year-old ginseng.
Tang Xiu left his seat and went to the last corner of the auction hall to make a phone call, only to learn that Jia Ruidao had repaid 220 million foreign debts, and now there were 80 million left. Tang Xiu was not polite, and directly borrowed the 80 million.
"Ding......
A few minutes later, he received a text message on his mobile phone indicating that he had transferred 80 million to his bank account.
"218 million, is there a higher buyer? If not, this thousand-year-old wild ginseng is that gentleman's. The auctioneer asked aloud with an excited look.
Tang Xiu looked at the silent guests around him, slowly raised the sign in his hand, and said, "Two hundred and twenty million." ”
Auctioneer Xiao Ai's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is a hero who is a young man, and this handsome gentleman bid 220 million, which is really a big deal." Today's scene reminds me of a sentence: heroes come out of teenagers, and ginger is no longer the old spicy. I don't think anyone is bidding more than this handsome gentleman, right? If not, this thousand-year-old ginseng plant is this handsome gentleman's! ”
“……”
Many people in the auction hall showed annoyed looks. They recognize the phrase "heroes come out of youth", but "ginger is no longer old and spicy", but many people are angry when they hear it.
A fat middle-aged man in the front row who was snuggled up to a young girl next to him tugged the gold chain around his neck, raised the Vacheron Constantin watch worth millions on his wrist, and said in a rough voice:
"Two hundred and thirty million."
"Two hundred and fifty million!"
Tang Xiu's eyes burst out with a cloud of cold light, and he shouted in a deep voice.
The fat middle-aged man pushed away the young man next to him, turned his head and glared at Tang Xiu viciously, then gestured his middle finger and shouted, "Three hundred million!" ”
"...... Uproar"
Everyone in the entire auction hall was stunned by the fat middle-aged man's offer.
300 million?
A thousand-year-old wild ginseng was auctioned for a sky-high price of 300 million?
Everyone, began to whisper to each other:
"What's the origin of this stupid fat man? Can you take out 300 million to buy a thousand-year-old ginseng plant? I definitely think that what he eats only grows meat, not brains. The value of a thousand-year-old wild ginseng is only 150 million at most, and if it is more, it will be a big injustice. ”
"Stupid, even if this thousand years of ginseng is precious, it won't cost 300 million, right? He was clearly fighting the young man. ”
"Idiot! There are idiots every year, especially this year. That dead fat man has money to burn, right? ”
"People are stupid and have a lot of money!"
“……”
Tang Xiu narrowed his eyes, looked at the fat middle-aged man's provocative eyes, and sighed secretly in his heart. He can't afford it, he can only bid up to 250 million, and more is not something he can afford.
"There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't want it."
Tang Xiu had this sentence in his mind, and finally smiled bitterly. He used to be very rich, and as long as it was what he fancied, there was almost nothing he couldn't buy. So, he is well aware of the power of money. But now, he is starting all over again, and Yan zhòng lacks funds.
Ultimately.
The thousand-year-old wild ginseng was obtained by the fat middle-aged man.
"It's time for the show."
Miao Wentang, who was sitting next to Tang Xiu, was faintly excited and said in a low voice.
Tang Xiu was surprised: "The thousand-year-old ginseng is the most expensive on the list of auction items, it should be the last one, right?" Is there anything else that isn't on the list? ”
Miao Wentang said in a low voice: "Tang Xian...... Tang Xiu, you haven't participated in the Bauhinia auction before, so you don't know its rules. At each auction, there will be an item that is not listed on the list as the finale. ”
"I see!"
Tang Xiu suddenly realized, and he had some expectations for this last item. He didn't buy the thousand-year-old ginseng, and the money in his hand was not spent, maybe the last item was what he needed.
Suddenly.
All the lights in the auction hall were turned off. Immediately afterward, a dim white light shone on the auctioneer from the top. Eventually, on the wall behind the auctioneer, a projector image appeared. (To be continued.) )
ps: This is today's first update, and there will be a wave of big * in the next quiet night, and I also ask my brothers and sisters to leave the guaranteed monthly pass in June, and I am grateful.
