Volume 3: The Storm Rises Chapter 517: The Fierce Competition of the Yimeng (1)
At nine o'clock in the morning, many people came to the post league one after another, some were dressed ordinarily, some were brightly dressed, and some people went straight to the box on the second floor through the VIP passage like Lu Yao and others.
Lu Yao stood in front of the window and took a general look at the layout of the first and second floors, the furnishings on the first floor are very similar to a quaint teahouse, a square table next to each one, there are four square stools next to each square table, and there is a small pager on the square table, which is connected to the service desk at the back, and you can find a waiter to pour tea and water at any time.
There are a total of ten boxes on the second floor, large and small, and there is a yellow lantern lit outside the door of the box where there are people, and the lantern in the seventh box where Lu Yao and others are located is lit at this time.
Each box has a large floor-to-ceiling window that allows you to clearly see everything outside, but this large floor-to-ceiling window is one-way, so you can see the outside from the inside, but you can't see the inside from the outside. Lu Yao could judge this from the expressions of the several waiters who passed by his window before.
"Lu Gongzi, come and sit down, the auction conference should start soon." Diao Wengui saw Lu Yao carefully looking at every detail here, just like when he first came, he also understood it very well, but looking at the wall clock on the wall, the time was almost up, and he reminded him.
Lu Yao nodded, sat on the sofa next to Diao Wengui, watched him take out a small remote control, and turned on the LCD screen hanging on the wall.
"Lu Gongzi, this LCD screen is specially customized, even through the screen you can clearly see the color of each flavor of medicinal materials, if there is still a trace of uncertainty, you can press the bell here, and someone will take you to check it with your own eyes." Diao Wengui wanted to explain all the information to Lu Yao clearly before the auction began, so as not to miss the medicinal materials on the list due to operational errors.
"Well, thank you, Mr. Diao, got it." Lu Yao nodded in understanding.
……
"Distinguished guests, the Yimeng medicinal materials auction is about to start now, please cooperate with our staff to verify the capital first, thank you for your cooperation!" A young woman wearing a black professional suit and stepping on a height of about seven or eight centimeters walked to the middle of the stage with a smile on her face and said politely.
Generally, there will be a capital verification link, but it is basically completed before entering the auction hall and getting the bidding card, but Yimeng is different, their capital verification is carried out at the moment before the auction starts, and what is even more different is that even those who just come to join in the fun, the staff of Yimeng will not drive you away, but will entertain you with good tea and snacks.
Lu Yao's box also came in to verify the capital, Lu Yao swiped his bank card on the machine in the other party's hand, and Lu Yao's assets were already displayed, and the staff behaved very relaxed, and left after saying "thank you for your cooperation".
……
Although there were many people who participated in the Yimeng auction today, the entire capital verification process was completed quickly, and it only took about ten minutes to complete all the work.
Behind the auction table, in a room that was decorated a notch higher than all the boxes, an old and a young man sat there, looking at the data that was constantly being collected from the staff.
"Uncle Ying, what is the financial strength of the young man brought by Mr. Diao?" The young one is a girl, dressed like a boy and a girl, about twenty-five years old, with short hair, a neat suit, and a pair of big eyes that look heroic.
"Eleven million." Uncle Ying casually glanced at it and said.
"Eleven million, not a small number, it is estimated that the son-in-law of the big family bought medicine for the elders." After listening to the figures reported by Uncle Ying, the girl said to herself: "This money is estimated to be able to buy all the good medicinal materials this time!" ”
The girl's voice was not loud, but Uncle Ying heard it clearly, smiled and said, "This is not necessarily! ”
"Why, Uncle Ying, didn't you say that some of the most expensive medicinal materials this time are auctioned at the highest price in the current market, which is 11 million, why is 11 million not necessarily?" The girl asked suspiciously.
"If the city was normal, there would be no problem, but this time it may not be." Uncle Ying looked at the girl and said, "Xiaoling, come and take a look!" ”
Uncle Ying pushed the table made by the staff in front of him to the girl Xiaoling, and pointed to a few numbers with his fingers, Xiaoling's surprised mouth grew big, and her face was full of disbelief and exclaimed: "How can this be, Uncle Ying, how can this be?" ”
"The guests in box 5 have prepared 15 million, the guests in box 4 have prepared 9 million, the guests in box 3 have prepared 18 million, the guests in box 2 have prepared 20 million, and the guests in this box have prepared 30 million." Uncle Ying reported the funds of all the boxes except for the box where Lu Yao was sitting one by one, and then continued: "Obviously, they obviously have some knowledge of the auction list this time, and they are prepared!" ”
"Uncle Ying, do you mean that someone in our post alliance has betrayed information about the auction?" Xiao Ling listened to Uncle Ying's words, nodded, and after being silent for a long time, her face became more and more ugly, she didn't want to say this, but after all, she couldn't hold back and asked.
"It should be, every time our auction list is not known at all, except for Diao Wengui, no one else knows at all, and Diao Wengui has been very strict with the rules of our Yimeng over the years, but now besides him, there are other people who know so clearly, which requires Xiaoling to investigate." Uncle Ying's face always had a very flat expression, so that people couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad.
"I know, I'll do it, but this matter must not be known to grandpa, otherwise none of us will be able to eat and walk around!" Xiao Ling made a grimace at Uncle Ying and left immediately.
Uncle Ying looked at the back of Xiaoling leaving, and muttered in a low voice: "Miss, you must be angry, otherwise you will not be able to gain a firm foothold in the family in the future, and it will be a problem to even be able to continue to stay in this family, hey......"
……
……
No matter what happened, the auction continued, and the first lot was a snow spirit grass that was extremely ordinary in the eyes of ordinary people, but not ordinary in the eyes of connoisseurs. The reason why it is said to be ordinary is because it is not uncommon in the northwest region of China, especially in the high mountains at higher altitudes, and it is a relatively common herb that specializes in treating bruises and invigorating blood.
And it is said that it is not ordinary, because only those true experts can see that this snow spirit grass did not grow in ordinary mountain ranges, but was picked by someone from Wanren Peak in the Northern Cold Polar Region.
Wan Ling Peak, the northernmost peak of Xinlu Province, the mountain is very high, towering into the clouds, but it is very strange that the mountain is not big, and it is precisely because of this that the mountain appears to be very steep, and it has always been called the Jedi of "a thousand mountains and birds flying". But such a Jedi is able to produce the best snow spirit grass, and the medicinal effect of one snow spirit grass here can be compared to the medicinal effect of hundreds of plants in other places.
However, not many people know about these things, so the starting price is not high, only 1,000 yuan. But even so, some people were not happy, muttering: "Since Yimeng handed it over to that little girl, it is becoming more and more unpleasant now, the snow spirit grass on the market, which is only sold for a hundred yuan a plant, has been offered a price of 1,000 yuan, so dark, it is better to rob the money!" ”
"Be quiet, that girl is black, don't be heard by her."
"If you hear it, you hear it, what's the big deal, don't the people of the Ouyang family allow others to say it?"
A few middle-aged people in the audience who sat around a tea table and drank tea, and paid attention to the auction, were quite dissatisfied with Yimeng's speculation on the price of a snow spirit grass that could only be sold for 100 yuan a plant on the market to 1,000 yuan, and complained constantly. But before they could say anything, they suddenly heard someone make the first offer.
The voice came from the fourth box on the second floor, and I could only hear the other party's loudspeaker shouting: "Fifteen hundred!" ”
"Is this person crazy, it's a waste to spend a thousand yuan on a hundred yuan of things, and now he actually increases the price by five hundred yuan at one time?"
"Maybe people are determined to get it, forget it, this Dongzi is estimated to be the highest price."
“……”
"I'll give you two thousand!" The first box suddenly quoted.
"Did I hear me right, someone offered two thousand?"
"That's right, I heard ...... too"
"Two thousand five hundred!" Not to be outdone, Box 4 continued to increase the price.
"I'll give 10,000!" As soon as the sound of box No. 4 fell, box No. 1 directly raised the price to 10,000.
"Ten thousand, really fake?"
"You pinch me, I'll see if I'm dreaming?"
"Ah, tap it, you've got all the flesh off!"
At the scene, a middle-aged man who was relatively calm before heard that he should be dreaming when he heard that he should be dreaming when he heard that he was buying a snow spirit grass at a price of 10,000 yuan, and gently shook the arm of his companion and asked the other party to pinch himself.
……
"Master, what should I do, do we still increase the price?" In the fourth box, a young man standing with his back on his back whispered the opinion of the old man sitting in front of him.
"Forget it, it's just a snow spirit grass, it's not worth spending so much money, even if it's the snow spirit grass of Wan Qian Peak, it's not worth the price, so it's better to take a step back and make a good fate, and wait won't waste money on vindictiveness." The old man opened his eyes, glanced at the snow spirit grass on the big screen, and said lightly.
……
In this way, the price of 10,000 yuan for the first medicinal herb Snow Spirit Grass was taken away by the people in the mysterious No. 1 box.
