Chapter Seventy-Four: The Auction
As soon as the words fell, someone at the scene immediately raised a sign.
"Fifty thousand."
"Fifty thousand."
"Fifty-five thousand."
"Fifty-eight thousand."
……
"One hundred thousand." As Li Ming calmly raised the sign and shouted the price, all the people participating in the auction at the scene were stunned at the same time, and they all looked at Li Ming.
Shao Jia, who was beside him, didn't expect that Li Ming would directly pay 100,000 yuan to buy the truffle, and couldn't help but pull Li Ming's arm and said in surprise: "What are you doing?" ”
Li Ming smiled and said, "Buy truffles." ”
Shao Jia was speechless.
Big Yellow Fang, who was sitting not far away, had been peeking at Shao Jia's appearance and body.
The pretty appearance and fiery figure made Big Yellow Tooth want to get Shao Jia more and more, just when his heart was like a cat scratching a dog, Big Yellow Tooth found that Shao Jia actually took the initiative to hug the arm of the man next to him and snuggled on the other party's shoulder, which made Big Yellow Tooth almost go crazy with jealousy.
"This gentleman bid 100,000 yuan, and there is no higher price."
Hearing the auctioneer's excited voice, Big Yellow Tooth realized that the man next to Shao Jia actually spent 100,000 yuan to buy truffles for Shao Jia.
thought that if the truffle let the man buy it, Shao Jia would not be coaxed into bed by him tonight.
Under the fire of jealousy, Big Yellow Tooth lost his cool, and the owner of this truffle was him, but in order to prevent Li Ming from getting Shao Jia, Big Yellow Tooth angrily raised the sign.
"One hundred and fifty thousand."
suddenly increased by another 50,000 yuan, and Big Yellow Fang's actions made the auction atmosphere on the scene reach a small climax, and everyone turned their eyes on Big Yellow Tooth.
Feeling everyone's attention, Big Yellow Tooth put down the sign and said to Shao Jia and Li Ming mockingly: "Oh, I said why did Miss Jiajia come to the auction, it turned out that she wanted to buy truffles, but, just such a truffle, is your hotel enough." ”
Unexpectedly, even if it was such a small piece of truffle, Big Yellow Tooth didn't want to give it to him, Shao Jia looked at Big Yellow Tooth angrily and said, "You ......"
Just about to speak, but Li Ming grabbed his arm and gave Shao Jia a reassuring look, Li Ming turned his head and smiled faintly, and said to Big Yellow Tooth: "It has nothing to do with you." ”
After speaking, Li Ming raised the sign again and said to the auctioneer: "Two hundred thousand." ”
Big Yellow Tooth didn't expect Li Ming to be so decisive, he directly added 50,000 yuan, looked at Li Ming holding Shao Jia's little hand, and said angrily: "I'll give 210,000." ”
Everyone's eyes turned from Big Yellow Tooth to Li Ming again.
Looking at the way Big Yellow Tooth gritted his teeth when he quoted, Li Ming knew that the other party didn't have much money, otherwise he wouldn't have added 11,000 yuan, and he looked like his father and mother were dead.
With a sneer, Li Ming raised the sign again and said lightly: "I'll pay 300,000." ”
The auction price of truffles of the same grade and weight in Europe is only a little more than 100,000, and now Li Ming has shouted 300,000, far exceeding Big Yellow Fang's expectations.
Looking at Li Ming's indifferent attitude, Big Yellow Tooth didn't expect Li Ming to be so rich and wanted to compete with the other party, but spending more than 300,000 yuan to make a woman happy, Big Yellow Tooth thought about the only 400,000 in the card, and gave up that idea.
But looking at the intimate appearance of the two, Big Yellow Tooth was really uncomfortable in his heart, and suddenly thought that Li Ming was determined to get this truffle, and Big Yellow Tooth calculated in his heart that even if he didn't buy it back, he would have to disgust him again and let him spend more money.
It's just that Big Yellow Tooth is a little worried, if he bids again, Li Ming will no longer come out, then he will lose a lot.
After thinking about it for a long time, just when the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer for the third time, Big Yellow Fang finally made up his mind, and raised the sign again with a hideous face and said, "I will pay 301,000 yuan." ”
Putting down the sign, Big Yellow Fang turned his head and deliberately said to Li Ming in a vicious tone: "Even if it's a gram of truffle, I won't give it to you." ”
Li Ming smiled faintly, and was about to raise the sign again, but his hand was grabbed by Shao Jia, and he looked back at Shao Jia, Li Ming said, "Jiajia, what's wrong." ”
Shao Jia shook his head and said, "Li Ming, it's not worth it, this truffle is not worth so much money." ”
Li Ming smiled and said, "Who said that, I think this truffle is a priceless treasure." ”
After speaking, he held up the sign again and said, "I will give 400,000." ”
Everyone at the scene gasped.
Not caring about everyone's eyes, after Li Ming put down the sign, he turned to look at Big Yellow Tooth, and said with a smile: "Brother Yellow Tooth, if you increase the price again, I will take a look, and I will definitely not buy it if you add it." ”
Li Ming's flirtatious tone made the big yellow tooth half dead, and he was afraid that Li Ming would not buy it, then he would lose a lot, and spent 400,000 yuan to buy what he sold, but the actual price of this thing was only worth more than 100,000, and the big yellow tooth couldn't afford to lose.
After holding it for a long time, Big Yellow Tooth still didn't have the courage to raise the price again, and finally sneered, changed to a mocking tone and said: "Lao Tzu doesn't play anymore, anyway, I sold this thing, and now you have spent an extra 300,000 yuan, which is enough." ”
Looking at the smug appearance of the big yellow teeth, Li Ming smiled and said, "Don't be unpredictable." ”
Li Ming is looking for what kind of truffle to use the spiritual liquid to make, and now he has encountered the top Alba white truffle, which just solves Li Ming's problem.
After speaking, Li Ming glanced at the big yellow tooth with a mocking, took Shao Jia to the backstage to pay the money, and then left the auction hall with this top-grade white truffle weighing less than a catty.
Along the way, Shao Jia always wanted to ask Li Ming why he did this, but he was afraid that Li Ming would not be able to get off the stage in front of so many people.
When he came outside, Shao Jia finally couldn't help but speak: "Li Ming, what are you spending so much money on him, such a little truffle is just a drop in the bucket for the hotel, and the price is too expensive, and our hotel can't afford it." ”
Li Ming didn't dare to tell Shao Jia that the purpose of buying this truffle was to prepare to go back and use the spiritual liquid to make more white truffles of the same grade.
He said in a flickering manner: "I didn't buy it for your hotel, I just saw the top white truffle for the first time, and I bought it back and tasted it." ”
Unexpectedly, Li Ming was the reason, which made Shao Jia feel a sense of collapse, and said speechlessly: "What can I do, I didn't buy enough truffles, and I offended the dealer." ”
Li Ming said with a smile: "Don't worry, I promised you to help you buy enough white truffles, and I will definitely do it." ”
Shao Jia didn't speak, just looked at Li Ming in disappointment.
Li Mingguang thought about going home quickly to make white truffles, and didn't notice Shao Jia's eyes.
After driving Shao Jia home, Li Ming returned directly to his home.
Putting this top-grade truffle in his hand, Li Ming took out the mineral water bottle containing the spiritual liquid from his arms with great interest, and dropped a drop of spiritual liquid on the truffle.
