Of course, Stan Aine thought he could handle the inquiries of these people, but Doolin still let him choose a more professional auctioneer, who charged by the hour and had a commission. Of course, under the care of acquaintances, the commission is definitely gone, but the cost cannot be discounted, and the cost of 1,000 yuan per hour is indeed a high level in the industry, but the host is really good.

From the beginning of the first place in the auction, the 148 delegates sitting in the venue began to fight for Chiguoguo, there was no temptation at all, the first person opened his mouth was 10 million, and directly asked some people who were ready to shout the price, and even raised their hands holding the signs, took their hands back.

In fact, the first bidder to bid at the auction of similar items always takes advantage, and as long as he shouts an amazing price, the other bidders will have a wonderful idea. They will feel that if they send these powerful people out first, then the price will fall. But the opposite is often true, and the first bidder in auctions of the same kind is often below the average price, but people always fail to remember the lesson.

The price remained at around $10 million for the next three auctions, and then the price began to rise sharply, as most bidders found that although it seemed that four powerful people had already gotten their hands and left, there were fewer things left, and the competitive environment was even worse. Everyone wants to settle the matter as soon as possible, and the price keeps going up until it reaches a maximum of 22 million.

When the last gavel fell, the little yellow hair who presided over the auction was so excited that even his voice began to tremble, he had only seen an auction of more than 200 million yuan in his life, and more importantly, he presided over this auction, which will become one of his most important capitals.

After the end of the sale, he even promised Dulin that in the future, as long as it was an auction held by Durin, he would absolutely help host it for free, without a penny, including the commission for this one.

Auctioneers are actually similar to lawyers and more special industry practitioners, and they are very particular about qualifications. If more than 30% of the auctions in an auction presided over by an auctioneer are unsold, and after a certain number of auctions, he will basically say goodbye to the auctioneer industry. But if he can host such an auction with a total amount of more than 200 million, it is equivalent to a huge opportunity for him, and his commission will be increased by more than one notch in the future.

After the auction ended, the fifteen winners were invited by Doolin into the seventh-floor conference hall of the Empire State Building, where the next step was the closing and other questions.

It seems that the amount of 200 million is huge, but in fact, the cash settlement part is only 50 or 60 million, and the remaining 100 million or so will be delivered by other means, including mortgage and lending.

These fifteen winners are basically real capitalists, they know better how to play the game of capital, and these people are also the people that Doolin needs.

When they entered the conference room and saw Durin, they were all a little surprised, and some of them thought of Doolin as a waiter.

After Doolin introduced himself, the people were honest for a while, and then Doolin needed to tell them about the new gameplay - they had spent tens of millions of dollars in exchange for tickets to the game, and it was only natural that Dührin should listen carefully to the gameplay.

"The distillation method we use can easily solve the high cost of the material such as dragon's blood, and the liquor made from raw materials that do not contain dragon's blood wood can be distilled to obtain pure spirits. I will arrange for someone to demonstrate for you and give you door-to-door guidance. After that, you can make your own sake and sell it to the market. Duhring talked eloquently in the face of these capitalists, they listened very carefully, didn't they spend so much money just for this?

Someone asked a small question, "Mr. Doolin, as far as I know, the owner of the patent is Mr. Clark, so you and Mr. Clark ......"

Durin smiled, "Clark is a very good friend of mine, and I will have full authority to make all decisions on behalf of Mr. Clark in the future, if you have any questions, you can also come to me." As he spoke, he nodded and motioned for the guy to shut his mouth, and he continued: "I believe that everyone has spent a lot of money to get the authorization in order to obtain higher returns, but the chaotic market will expose us to risks of different sizes, I think it is necessary and obligatory for us to unite as a group and put the chaotic order in order!"

The bidders agreed, which is what they wanted, and the purpose of distilling and purifying spirits from low-alcohol liquor was to free up sufficient profit margins to fight an unequal price war with other producers. After eliminating the miscellaneous brewers, they will have at least 80% of the entire empire's brewing industry in full control.

It is no exaggeration to say that eighty percent of the annual consumption of more than one billion drinks will become the food on the plates of these people here, and the forces represented by each person will be able to obtain at least 60 or 70 million shares, excluding various channels and sales, their profitability will exceed 20 million a year. So they didn't hesitate to shout out a daunting price to seize the opportunity.

"I have an idea ......", after a short communication people already think that Durin is worth paying attention to, what he says is even more worthy of attention, and there is no longer a little underestimation of his thoughts. Du Lin raised his hand and stretched out a finger and pointed at random, "Within a year, through reasonable and legal competition and other means, we will squeeze as many breweries and manufacturers that do not belong as much as possible in our circle, and I hope to ...... them at this time next year", he tapped his finger on the table, and the crisp voice seemed to be on the hearts of these people, making them involuntarily straighten up, "In the entire territory of the empire, the scale of the brewing workshop is twenty percent of what it is now, or even less!"

The eyes of those capitalists suddenly showed a red or green luster, the fewer competitors, the more share they shared, plus the recovery of the imperial economy, people have more money in their pockets, they need more enjoyment, this is a world with infinite possibilities.

Of course, there were also people who asked what if someone stole this very simple way of purifying to produce spirits, and the person who asked this question was suddenly stared at by fifteen eyes, he smiled awkwardly and closed his mouth.

What to do?

Of course, it is to protect their legitimate rights and interests, and make them disappear through legal and illegal means, this is a market of more than one billion a year, dare to stretch out their claws?

Not only will the claws be chopped off, but even the owners of the claws will be destroyed!

After all this was negotiated, the settlement began, and Duhrin received a total of more than 80 million transfers, and more than 110 million will be paid off annually for the next five years, and will incur an interest rate of one point higher than the bank loan rate, that is, 7.98 percent.

With this money, Dulin returned to Otis City, he needed this money not for the purpose of building Otis City, but in the next he had a huge plan, which needed a lot of money, and maybe even these funds were not enough to support his plan, so he needed more money to flow into his pocket. He will definitely not be the only one involved in this project, there will be more people involved, he calls this project "pineapple pie", why not "apple pie" is because he doesn't like to eat apples, he likes to eat pineapples.

He would invite people who would later be able to help him join the project, the top of the New Party, like Maggs, and the big capitalists, like John and Colles.

The return of this plan is probably more than 1,000 times, so he doesn't care how many people join this plan at all, but he is afraid that too few people will join and have an adverse impact on himself.

Now, all he needs to do is prepare silently and shock the world again!

On his return to Otis the day after he attended an opening ceremony where Mr. Jack's warehouse was completed. Mr. Jack and "Poker" are very smart, they don't run businesses that can be risky, or their philosophies are flat. The construction of the warehouse area is always a profit, and the maintenance of the warehouse area only requires some maintenance costs and monthly labor on a quarterly basis.

Coupled with Doolin's guarantee that Otis City would not exceed two warehouse districts, it was enough to guarantee Mr. Jack and the organization behind him the income in Otis City for the next thirty years.

Durin happily attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony from the Federation, and said a few words, giving Mr. Jack a lot of face. After the dinner was dismissed, Durin dragged Mr. Jack into a corner and found a place where no one was there to talk about things privately.

The two walked to the empty temporary stacking area behind the warehouse area, the open place could not hide people, and the wind could completely silence their words, Du Lin looked around, and then said: "I want to talk to the queen or the king directly, do you have any way?"

Mr. Jack frowned, his facial expression was still very stiff and incongruous, and it was very uncomfortable to look at, as if there was something covering his face.

"With all due respect, is there anything important, and if you may, it would be better for me to pass it on to the two adults. ”

Durin took out the cigarette case, took out a cigarette, and knocked the butt of the cigarette against the cigarette case. In the last two weeks, he has noticed that the tobacco in his cigarettes is not as tight as it used to be, which may have something to do with Rani's proposal to raise tobacco taxes. Almost all cities throughout the empire began to build up their economies, attracting large numbers of people from the countryside to the cities. There was no place in the city to grow their own tobacco leaves, and with the increase in wages, cigarette sales began to rise significantly.

Lani came up with the idea at a very timely time, and after the general election, it would be discussed and heard in the Imperial Diet.

He lit a cigarette, took a puff, and slowly exhaled it, looking at Mr. Jack with a smile, "I have a business with a return rate of more than five hundred times, I don't know if the king and queen are interested!"
