Chapter 128 Auction

As soon as Durin sat down after sending Frena away, the seat was not warmed, and Ernst didn't know when he was already sitting next to him, "That woman is not as simple as it seems, try not to have too deep contact with her." He handed Durin a cigarette, and Durin took it.

Although in everyone's eyes, Durin and Ernst should be fighting at this time, eager to kill each other in order to occupy more moonshine markets in Turner City, but there is no surprise that Ernst took the initiative to sit next to Durin and hand over cigarettes. This is high society, and this is the demeanor that the elite of high society should show when socializing. To put it simply, you want to stab the person in front of you with a knife, but at this time and this occasion, you have to treat the other person as your good friend.

Only in this way can we embody the distorted three views that conform to mainstream values.

Well, it's very mouthful, just twist it anyway.

Durin took out a lighter for Ens and lit it for himself. The two of them plus Karul fought to the death in Turner City, although they still maintained restraint and did not use force directly, but the price competition has tended to be vicious, and the wholesale price of each moonshine has been reduced by one or two yuan, thinning the profits, and in the eyes of the people, they are not far from using force to see blood. But people don't know that in terms of external expansion, the three have taken dividends from the moonshine market in other cities that are far higher than the profits of the local moonshine market.

At the same time, in addition to letting everyone see them "fighting" with each other, it is also related to the fact that moonshine from other places began to flow into Tenell. The influx of moonshine from other places is not just as simple as the first love being reproduced, perhaps it is their behavior that has awakened those moonshiners who are still content to run the local market, and the moonshiners in various spheres of influence have begun to expand outward.

A large amount of out-of-town moonshine has begun to flow into Turnier, and in order to maintain the local market, a price war is necessary. The three took turns to reduce the price of those out-of-town moonshiners by surprise, originally they wanted to come in and compete for the market, but they didn't expect that Tenair's market was already miserable. Except for a very small number of high-quality moonshiners that are still competing for high-end consumers, those in the middle and low end have all left the market.

They can't afford it, the cost of transportation makes them much more expensive than local moonshiners, and with the outbreak of price wars, they are simply not competitive.

On the contrary, before the moonshiners in other cities had come together to form a merchant-like group, they were confronted with the same or even slightly lower price, but a little higher quality, of foreign moonshine. This made Turnier City's current moonshine triumvirate make enough money, and even Karul, who had the least share, had a lot of smiles on his face, and he was able to joke with the people around him.

Therefore, the apparent harmony between the two is not pretended, it is a real harmony!

Durin glanced in the direction the girl had left, spat out a puff of smoke, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?

Ernst nodded, crossed his legs, and spoke softly.

Frena is not a simple girl, she knows that the director of the theater covets her youth and beauty, but she still tries her best to provoke two tycoons to fight for her and the director. Unfortunately, she didn't get the freedom she wanted, because the two tycoons had become part of the history of Turnaire City, and they committed suicide due to various unexpected bankruptcies. But this girl is still doing this, and her purpose in doing this is to put it bluntly, she hopes that a "warrior" who can defeat the "Demon King" will appear and save herself.

But she never thought about what would happen if "The Warrior" couldn't beat the "Demon King...... Yes, she'll try to find the next warrior.

After listening to Ernst's explanation, Durin couldn't help laughing, and none of the people who could stand firm on this occasion were simple.

Seeing that he understood, Ernst patted him on the arm, then got up and left. His seat is in the fourth row, not here.

After about half an hour of pleasantries, the people finally returned to their seats, and the charity party was held. The host of the evening was the director of the Turnaire City Education Bureau, who is in charge of Imperial Civic Education in Turner, and it is said that during the midterm elections, the New Party will launch a reform and refinement of the administrative organs, and the names of some administrative institutions will also be changed. But for now, this old man, who wears gold-rimmed glasses, has snow-white hair, and has a solemn face that gives people a very politician atmosphere, is still the city's director in charge of education.

He coughed lightly, and the hall immediately calmed down, and the old man recounted some very old but recognized by mainstream values, advocating hypocritically hoping to make more people pay attention to the education industry, and then Rory said that in recent years, the education problem in Tennell City has changed dramatically with the attention and support of many tycoons and celebrities. At the same time, it also reminded all guests that 30% of the amount raised this time will be transferred to the account of the Education Bureau as a special education fund, which will be used to provide more "cheap" education and popularize knowledge for more citizens.

Just as Du Lin was sitting in the Grand Theater to participate in this charity auction that was actually very boring, outside the Grand Theater, the car washer who was carrying a bucket with his eyes lost focus and looked dazed, suddenly had a spirit, and he remembered who the familiar back was!

It's the young man who is so diligent that they can't stand it, and he can get a lot of money by washing off the floating dust on the car body casually, but he wants to clean the car more seriously, causing them to have to work more carefully to earn the same salary as before. It was because this kid broke the rules here that he told Mad Dog about it, which led to a conflict between him and Mad Dog.

Maybe he was just working in it, and the car wasn't his, he was helping someone else park it.

The thin man explained everything he saw, because there was no reason to explain that a guy who, more than three months or four months ago, had to rely on hard work to earn a meager income, could afford to buy a car in such a short time. You must know that the car is worth at least 2,800 yuan, and it is definitely not something that their class can afford, and they have never even thought about it.

Two thousand eight hundred?

How can it be!

The expression on his face changed slightly, in fact, there was not much hatred between him and this kid, except for his own bad business in those days, there was no substantive conflict between the two at all. But Mad Dog said that whoever could provide news of the kid would be rewarded with five dollars.

Five dollars is not a small amount, you can make about ten dollars by washing a car, and you can wash about three to five cars a day, and this is why everyone has a "perfunctory" attitude towards car washing work. Because most of the time, the peak time of car washing is at night, and at the same time, not every car owner has a strict habit of cleaning the appearance of the vehicle, and sometimes there may be no business for a day. Therefore, washing the car in the shortest possible time to compete for more business is a skill that every car washer must master.

These five yuan, for him, is half a month's income, and it is also the kind of luck that is very good.

His Adam's apple slid up and down involuntarily, he knew very well what would happen if this kid was caught by a mad dog, to be honest, there was no deep hatred between them, except for the disgust that couldn't even be talked about in those few days.

Can...... That's five bucks after all.

He turned and placed the bucket and other tools under the lamppost, and other companions would watch over him for him, and the inseparable desire for five dollars forced him to make a decision that was contrary to his intentions.

He's going to go to Mad Dog and get the five bucks.

Maybe someone will be injured or even die because of this five dollars, but it has nothing to do with him, does it?

Dulin in the Grand Theater did not know that his brief appearance had attracted the attention of others, and after sitting for half an hour, he finally ushered in the second half of this charity auction.

The first half is mostly donated by some tycoons, which may be worth a little money, but there's no point in snapping them up. According to the unspoken rules of charity auctions, the things donated by these tycoons will be auctioned back at a moderate price by themselves, except that others like it very much and will compete, and generally everyone will give up after the owner of the thing speaks, this is the rule of the game here.

But the second half of the auction was different, as most of the donations came from celebrities in Turner City, as well as the game-makers in Turner City. They can often fetch a very high price for even a worthless object. Are the rich and tycoons in bad brains? Of course not, and in this way they can improve their relationships with celebrities, with officials.

The first auction item in the second half came from one of the two councillors in Turner City, it was a potted plant that looked a little inexplicable, it didn't look like it was famous, and it didn't look like anything, but it was such a thing that was not a thing, and the first offer on the scene had already surpassed the final price of all previous donations.

"Three hundred yuan!", the young staff of the Grand Theater waved their hammers in high spirits, "This respectable gentleman is willing to pay three hundred yuan to get this potted plant full of wilderness and nature, and anyone will pay a higher price?", the staff once again showed a flower pot full of wild grass that can be seen everywhere on the roadside, with Durin's artistic accomplishment, he could not see anything related to art is inevitable.

"Five hundred!"

"Five hundred and fifty dollars!"

......

By the time the bidding reached 1,000, it was almost over, and as the staff member in charge of the auction was about to knock down the gavel, Durin raised his hand......
