Chapter 62 . Auctions
"Yes, that's it." Ding Liugen said, "Let's go separately and prepare." ”
"In order to prevent disputes in the future, I suggest that everyone sign a confidentiality agreement together, and each person pays a deposit of 500,000 yuan to the eldest lady, and the eldest lady will guarantee the performance of the contract." Huang Wenbin said, "If anyone does not act according to the agreement, the eldest lady will deduct money from his deposit." ”
"Do you have half a million?" Ding Liugen looked at Huang Wenbin suspiciously.
"I'm going to put the Songshan Villa you want to give me on it, boss, didn't you say that the villa is at least four or five hundred thousand?" Huang Wenbin said, "In this way, everyone should be able to gain mutual trust and work together, no longer you doubt me, I doubt you, in order to achieve the greatest results." ”
In fact, the current price of the villa is about 300,000, but Ding Liugen himself said 450,000 yuan, of course, he can't go back at this time. 300,000 is good, at least it shows that Huang Wenbin really didn't want to cheat and find excuses. "That's fine." Ding Liugen thought to himself that Xiao Huang was quite good, "Then let's decide." Everyone went their separate ways to prepare. ”
After several days of preparation, the auction was officially held on the 15th day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival. Ding Liugen found a small auction house for specific operations and invited countless celebrities to bid. After the publicity in the early stage, and Ding Liugen's face is big enough, countless people came.
The field that can seat hundreds of people was full, and dozens of chairs were added around it as temporary seats, and then there were too many people, so all the chairs added later could be removed and everyone stood together. The venue was boiling, and the voices of thousands of people greeting and greeting each other were stacked on top of each other, making Huang Wenbin's ears almost deaf.
"Everyone, everyone, be quiet!" The auctioneer tried his best to beat the wooden hammer, but it had little effect, no one took him in his eyes at all, the auctioneer waved his hand, and the gaffer extinguished all the lights, leaving only a spotlight, which hit the auctioneer, and the venue was suddenly dark, and the sound was quiet.
But after a while, the voice became louder again, and the audience took out their mobile phones to illuminate them, and then chatted enthusiastically. The auctioneer had prepared a bunch of nonsense, but he couldn't say anything at this time, so he had to get straight to the point: "Hello everyone, I'm glad you all came to today's auction." As I believe everyone knows, the theme of our auction today is...... Aged wine! ”
After arranging for the tos to applaud together, the sparse applause rang out for a while, and the other audience followed, and the auctioneer breathed a sigh of relief and continued to read the lines: "There is no banquet without wine, wine is a changeable elf, it is as hot as fire, cold as ice." It lingers like a dream, vicious like a demon, soft as brocade, sharp as a steel knife; Kill and kill; It can make people detached, talented, and debauched; It can make people forget the pain, sorrow and troubles of the world, and soar in absolute freedom in time and space; It can also make people unscrupulous, bravely sink to the bottom of the abyss, make people throw away their masks, reveal their true form, and spit out the truth......"
Behind the scenes, Ding Shishi was speechless, "It seems to be very cultured." ”
"I watched him copy it from Baidu Encyclopedia." Huang Wenbin said.
"It's really easy to eat." Ding Shishi said, "By the way, how much did you spend on these wines?" ”
"Not a lot." Huang Wenbin, in fact, didn't spend a penny.
"Won't you make a lot of money by selling the wine in a while?" Ding Shishi asked, "Just by auctioning these dozens of bottles of wine, you can recover more than 1.7 million." After a pause, "With so much money, what's the first thing you want to do?" ”
"Buy a house for investment." Huang Wenbin said.
"What's the matter with you? There are tens of thousands of dollars for buying a house investment, hundreds of thousands for buying a house for investment, and more than 100 for almost 2 million, and you still buy a house for investment. Ding Shishi felt that Huang Wenbin's idea was simply incredible, "Can't you change individual activities?" ”
"I've thought about buying stocks or something, but I think it's too risky." Huang Wenbin remembered that there has been a big market in the stock market in recent years, rushing from three or four thousand points to six thousand points, but he doesn't know anything about stocks, and he doesn't even know how to open a stock account.
"You can't think about buying a car or a house other than investing...... Don't think about buying a house, go on a trip, learn to fly a plane, buy some brand-name clothes and bags, or go to eat something good, and give some jewelry to your girlfriend? Ding Shishi asked.
"Where's my girlfriend?" Huang Wenbin said.
"I'm your girlfriend!" Ding Shishi had already seen that there was no one else around, and she spoke very boldly, "You didn't give me anything, how can you be a boyfriend!" Even if you don't send a car or a house, at least give me jewelry. If you don't have jewelry, you don't even have flowers. ”
"Flowers are the reproductive organs of plants, what is there to give." Huang Wenbin will not make this kind of unprofitable investment, "You have a lot of jewelry, I'll give you a cheap one, you can't look at it." Give it an expensive one, I can't bear it. So I simply didn't send it. ”
"Who said that, what you gave me, no matter how cheap it is, I won't dislike it." Ding Shishi said.
"We'll talk about it later." Huang Wenbin said, "The money hasn't arrived yet." ”
"You promised yourself, you will buy me a gift when the money is in hand," Ding Shishi cheered, "The auction has started, let's stop talking, concentrate on watching!" ”
Huang Wenbin looked over in a daze, the auctioneer was still talking, where did the auction start?
"The food in the world is fresh and delicious, but this wine is the older it is, the better. We bought the wine, put it for two or three years, and drank it, ah, it tasted good. After five or six years, once you drink it, it's better! It's very common, and it's rare to see it for more than 10 years, and I'm sure not many of you here have tasted 10-year-old wine. But today we are going to auction not five years, not ten years, not even fifteen years, twenty years, but thirty years old! ”
The auctioneer shouted hoarsely, and the atmosphere in the audience reached its highest point, with clapping and screaming everywhere.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a certified appraisal here, guaranteeing that the auctioned wine in this place is more than 30 years old, and if the goods are not right, the insurance company will fully compensate you for your losses." The auctioneer knocked on the wooden hammer, "Okay, I won't talk nonsense, first of all, I will invite our first auction item, 30-year-old Chen Erguotou!" ”
As soon as the gaffer turned on the lamp, the light focused on the glass cabinet in the middle of the venue, which was the twelve bottles and two pot heads.
"Everyone knows that the second pot head is the "pot head" wine when the raw materials are fired in the second pot, this wine is the most pure, no peculiar smell, although the concentration is high but not strong, it is really mellow and fragrant. After 30 years of aging, the taste is even more incredible. Coming from the capital, he has a noble background. Now let's take a look at the upcoming auction of the first two pots, it is in perfect condition, the porcelain bottle, the poster, the seal are intact, the reserve price is 3,000 yuan, what are you waiting for, come to a good start to the New Year, hurry up and take it home, each time the price is increased to 500 yuan, please bid enthusiastically! ”
As soon as the words fell, the people who raised their hands joined together, and the price of five hundred and five hundred was added, and the price soon exceeded 10,000 bottles, then 15,000, 20,000, 25,000, and only stopped when it was almost 30,000, and the final transaction price was 29,000 eight.
"Is that man our trust?" Huang Wenbin asked.
"It's Brother Zhang's person." Ding Shishi replied, "After more than 8,000 yuan, all the people who ask for the price are our trust." ”
"Eight thousand? That's not bad. It's just a bottle of two-pot head, and it actually sold for 8,000 yuan, which can be regarded as a good start. Huang Wenbin asked knowingly, "Mr. Zhang wants Jian Nanchun and Moutai, and he doesn't want Erguotou, right?" Is this really going to be sold to the man named Eight Thousand? ”
"Who said I didn't want it." Zhang Lihua didn't know where the road came from, "According to the confidentiality agreement we signed, I will buy all the wine today, and then I will distribute it to Uncle Ding and Mr. Wan." If someone else offers a price that exceeds the reserve price we agreed upon, I will make up for it. I'm going to have a tasting, and of course I'm going to buy all these old wines. If someone else buys it, it doesn't matter if you drink it yourself, but what if you have a tasting session with me. ”
"Brother Zhang, when did you come?" Ding Shishi was taken aback, she didn't hear the conversation between her and Huang Wenbin just now, right?
"I just came here." Zhang Lihua said, "In short, I am not short of money, and I will never treat you badly, Brother Huang, cooperate with me to ensure that I am better than others." ”
"How can you make up the difference?" Huang Wenbin asked, "Isn't it the boss who makes up for it?" He remembered very clearly, the confidentiality agreement was clearly written, and the difference was made up by Ding Liugen.
"That's what it says in the contract, but it's my business, how can I get Uncle Ding to pay." Zhang Lihua said.
This is really embarrassing, Huang Wenbin originally wanted to pit Ding Liugen, but he didn't expect Zhang Lihua to pounce on himself. Forget it, anyway, everyone in the pit is a pit, Zhang Lihua is now looking at Yi Bo Yuntian, in fact, like Ding Liugen, he is also a cruel and ruthless capitalist.
"Hmph, since the agreement says that I paid for it, it was me who paid for it." Ding Liugen also popped up, "I don't believe that I can really produce much." Look at these two pots, the first bottle is only 8,000, this is the best bottle, and the ones that are damaged and in poor condition are not good, you see if there is anyone bidding. ”
"Dad, when did you come here?" Ding Shishi was so frightened that she was not ready, in case Ding Liugen heard that she insisted on Huang Wenbin to send jewelry, how could she see people.
"Of course I just arrived." Ding Liugen said, "What are you doing so sneakily? ”
"No, nothing." Ding Shishi smiled dryly and said, "Let's see if anyone bids." ”
There are many bidders, and the next few bottles of Erguotou have been auctioned for about 20,000 yuan, although the transaction price is lower than the first bottle, but there are more people willing to bid, and the real price is rising. Some people are even willing to pay more than 10,000 yuan to buy a bottle of Erguotou, although it is 30 years old, this price is not great.
