Text Text_Chapter 513 The auction begins
"Hehe, don't worry, it won't."
"Lin Da auctioneer is telling a joke, who of us dares to deal with you!"
"That is, if you get angry, we want to pawn and mortgage something in the future, who should we go to?"
Hearing the words of auctioneer Lin Gang, some of the people below who knew him laughed one after another.
"This Lin Gang, it is said that he is very famous in the pawn shop, and I have heard his name before."
Seeing Zuo Jian's look of "Who are you", Shen Monong knew in his heart that Zuo Jian definitely didn't know this Lin Gang, so he whispered to him on the side: "He is known as a gold medal appraiser, that is to say, anything is looked at by him, basically, how much is it worth, and he knows it in his heart." It's just that I didn't expect that tonight it would be him to make a cameo appearance as an auctioneer. ”
"I see." Zuo Jian nodded.
"Hehe, thank you for cheering. If I say something wrong tonight, or if I make a mistake in my evaluation, I ask you to be merciful. ”
Lin Gang clasped his fists with both hands and made a gesture to the audience, and next, it was a few words of nonsense that didn't hurt or itch, nothing more than tonight's event, which was a charity activity to send love and help children in poor mountainous areas.
Of course, Lin Gang also knew that most of the people present were impatient and interested, listening to their nonsense on stage, so after he said a few words, he pulled the topic back and said simply: "...... Next, I announce that the Zhongzhou Charity Gala is now officially launched, and the first auction item is an item from the CEO of Dongheng Group, a pair of vases from the Qing Dynasty. ”
As soon as his words fell, a tall waitress wearing a red cheongsam, holding a tray in her hand and covering it with a red cloth, put the plate on the auction table in front of Lin Gang.
"Everyone, please see."
Lin Gang carefully lifted the red cloth that was blocked, and two vases with a bamboo forest on two cyan and white backgrounds appeared in front of everyone.
"Everyone, pay attention to this bamboo forest on the vase." Saying that, Lin Gang slowly turned the two vases and explained: "The bamboo forest patterns on these two vases are different, and a single vase can also be used to admire, but if you put the two vases together, you will find that the patterns on them are put together, completely gentle, and the threads are seamless." ”
Zuo Jian took a closer look and found that as Lin Gang said, these two vases, if you take out any of them separately, the patterns on them will not look abrupt or lacking, but if you put the two vases together, you will see at a glance that this is a complete bamboo forest.
"The starting price of this pair of vases is set at 300,000 yuan."
After Lin Gang turned the vase a few times, he stopped, and said to everyone in the audience with a smile: "Every time the price is increased, no less than 10,000 yuan, before starting, I propose that we give warm applause to the CEO of Dongheng Group who donated this pair of vases." As he spoke, he was the first to applaud.
An old man with slightly thinning hair and a red face stood up, he was the owner of the vase, the boss of Dongheng Group, in the face of everyone's warm applause, he smiled and hugged his fists around. Then sat down.
Next, it's time to put on the bidding.
"Zuo Jian, the market price of this pair of vases should be about 300,000 yuan." Shen Monong did not participate in this bidding, but said to Zuo Jian in a low voice: "So even if only one or two people shout the price, there will be no phenomenon of buying low and picking up leaks." ”
"Well, I see."
Hearing Shen Monong's words, Zuo Jian knew in his heart that this must be the purpose of inviting Lin Gang to be the auctioneer, so that the things donated by everyone for auction can be reasonably priced by him, and the price will not deviate too much, in case everyone is not interested in the auctioned items, there will be no phenomenon that good things are sold cheaply.
"Three hundred and one thousand!"
As soon as Lin Gang's words fell, a man wearing a suit, tie, and a gentle smile raised his hand and shouted, "Hehe, I'll make a fun splash for Mr. Wang of Dongheng Group, in case no one competes with me, I can still pick up a bargain." He smiled and looked at Mr. Wang.
\t
"Three hundred and fifty thousand!"
As soon as the man's words fell, someone raised his hand and shouted the price, "Hehe, Mr. Li, you are too stingy, you only add 10,000 at a time, are you really planning to pick up the cheap?" This person immediately recognized the man who had just shouted the price, and it was obvious that the two were familiar with each other.
"Haha, I made you see my purpose." Mr. Li smiled slightly, but he was not angry, he raised his hand again and shouted, "Then 400,000 is good." ”
"Four hundred and fifty thousand!" This person raised the price a little higher again, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, this first auction item, I want to get a first prize, is it to sell my brother a face?" ”
"Haha, good you old Liu, since you said so, then I'll give up."
Mr. Li smiled casually, and did what he said, and sure enough, he stopped shouting prices.
After Mr. Li gave up, there were only two or three people, symbolically adding one or two hundred thousand yuan, but Lao Liu was obviously like what he said, and he was bound to get this pair of vases, and in the end, at a price of 480,000 yuan, he photographed this pair of vases.
"Four hundred and eighty thousand for the first time...... The second time, the third time! Although no one shouted the price, Lin Gang still played the role of the auctioneer very well, and after confirming that no one shouted the price three times in a row, he dropped the small mallet in his hand, knocked on the table lightly, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Mr. Liu, for taking this pair of vases at a price of 480,000 yuan!" At the same time, on behalf of the children in the poor mountainous areas, I would like to express my deep gratitude to Mr. Wang, who donated this pair of vases, and Mr. Liu, who took the auction at a high price! ”
The previous service lady who brought the vase to the stage held the tray with a smile on her face, and brought the vase to the back, after the auction was over, you could go to the backstage and say the item number and then pay the money to take it away.
"Hehe, you're welcome, you're welcome." Lao Liu said with a satisfied face. At Lin Gang's signal, he walked to the stage, waved his hand to everyone, and then went down, which can be regarded as a courtesy to the buyer.
"It's him."
When Lao Liu came to power, Shen Monong looked at him carefully a few times, and his face suddenly realized.
"What? Do you know? Zuo Jian asked curiously.
"Well, I've dealt with him a few times." Shen Monong explained with a smile: "This Lao Liu is very shrewd, if I am not mistaken, this pair of vases of the boss of Dongheng Group will definitely return to his home intact after a few days." ”
"You mean, the reason why this Lao Liu is bound to win this pair of vases is because he wants to curry favor with the boss of Dongheng Group, right?"
Zuo Jian immediately understood the meaning of Shen Monong's words.
"Well, that's right, I guess this Lao Liu must be discussing cooperation with the CEO of Dongheng Group." Shen Mo said with a smile: "At today's charity party, this Lao Liu first spent money to take pictures of the vase donated by the boss of Dongheng Group, so that the items donated by the CEO of Dongheng Group would not be auctioned off, and then the vase was quietly sent back." ”
Since then, the CEO of Dongheng Group has also shown his face at the charity gala, and has also gained the reputation of a philanthropist, and at the same time, his things have not been lost, but he has come back in a circle...... This Lao Liu is really scheming, hehe. ”
"You can still play like this?"
It was the first time for Zuo Jian to hear such an approach, and he immediately felt that his mind was wide open and fresh.
"Hehe, these business people, all shrewd like ghosts, no interests, they don't have any interest at all, haven't you heard a word? In this world, when entrepreneurs are asked to do charity, they often trade under the guise of charity! ”
Shen Mo smiled.
"That's just as well." Zuo Jian nodded and asked rhetorically: "Then since you know everything, why do you want to participate?" ”
"Hehe, although it is dressed in the cloak of charity, as long as the money obtained from the final auction is really used to donate to the children in the poor mountainous areas, then it's okay, at least the small actions they do in private, what's the matter?" Shen Monong's beautiful eyes glanced at Zuo Jian and said with a smile: "Besides, whether it is a business field or other places, in fact, it is just a large and small circle. ”
"As long as you live in the world, you will inevitably dissolve into or be divided into different circles, if you have to put a different label on yourself, then the final outcome is that you will definitely be excluded from these circles, so that in the end, it is yourself who suffers. So in the business field, many times, even if you know it, you have to pretend not to know. ”
As she spoke, her delicate face showed a trace of imperceptible exhaustion.
"Well, why bother?" Zuo Jian shook his head, stretched out his hand, grabbed Shen Monong's jade hand, and said with a smile: "Anyway, we have enough money to spend now, if you feel tired, just quit, let's find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and no people, build a house, and live freely, how good would it be?" ”
Hearing Zuo Jian's words, Shen Monong's beautiful eyes lit up, and he subconsciously said, "What you said is true?" As soon as she finished speaking, Zuo Jian didn't have time to speak, when he heard Lin Gang, the auctioneer on the stage, suddenly raised his voice and said: "The next auction item, although it is very ordinary, is very commemorative, it is a movie shooting prop windbreaker......
