Chapter 17 Burma Public Market (3)
Today is the day of the open bidding. The trading floor is overcrowded. The companies that participated in the auction all received a number plate, and Lin Xiao and they received the number 28.
Although Lin Xiao was injured, he still came with Wang Dong, they came very early, and they sat down in the front row, and some retail investors who came late could only stand.
The road is narrow. Qiao Shan and Cui Shicheng and his entourage were not far from where Lin Xiao was seated. Qiao Shan is sitting in a precarious position, not squinting, and he looks like a big man. Cui Shicheng glanced at Lin Xiao, and the meaning in his eyes was inexplicable. Gao Ze was also nearby, but he also pretended not to intersect.
Lin Xiao and Qiao Yang met their eyes and understood. If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone. I hope Cui Shicheng will be honest, otherwise he will always have a pain in his flesh.
"Everyone, be quiet, I'm Nick, the host of this open auction. Welcome to this auction. I know people can't wait to get what they're looking for. Without further ado, let's get straight to the point. "The host, Nick, wears a suit and bow tie, is very capable, and is fluent in Chinese.
There is a change in this year's public market, which used to be settled in euros, and with the continuous reflection of China's national strength, the jade public market is all settled in RMB. This is also normal, after all, the Chinese people are the main force in the consumption of jadeite.
As the rough stones were put up for auction one by one, the atmosphere in the trading floor was ignited again and again. Sure enough, Cui Shicheng is competing with Lin Xiao, but whenever Qiao Yang raises his cards, he will also raise his cards to chase the price, it seems that he wants to make Qiao Yang lose his grains.
Qiao Yang looked at his eldest brother Qiao Shan, Qiao Shan was still expressionless, he didn't object or stop it, he just kept harvesting the rough stone he fancied.
Big brother, you don't want me to be okay either, do you? Qiao Yang was a little lost, but he also became extremely determined.
"Next up is the auction of the No. 5 rough, which weighs about half a ton. I think you have seen it all, and there must be excellent quality jadeite in this condition, and there should be a lot of it. The starting price is 1 million, and the price increase is not less than 100,000 yuan each time. Nick's passionate voice echoed across the trading floor.
The hall was noisy. Rough No. 5 is the best of the clear-marked rough stones, and it also has a green color. According to some experts' estimates, the jadeite in this rough stone will be of glass quality. Therefore, everyone's emotions rose all at once, and their eyes were full of fire when they looked at it.
"2 million." Wang Donglai was the first to hold back, and the sign was higher than his head.
"No. 57 offers 2 million, 2 million, is there anything higher? Missing means losing, bosses, are you willing to lose your wealth? "Nick's words were extremely inflammatory.
Lin Xiao pulled Wang Donglai to sit down: "Brother Donglai, listen to my advice." You don't have to bid on this stone. This is a stone that will fall. β
The wound on the shoulder hurts.
Lin Xiao did not deceive Wang Donglai, the stone performed very well, and it was not wrong that there was a large amount of glass jadeite in it, but for some reason, after Lin Xiao's investigation, it was all broken, and the jade slag in the stomach may have been an accident during mining and blasting.
Whoever eats this rough stone will have to break their muscles and bones.
Wang Donglai looked at Lin Xiao with a serious face suspiciously, he wanted to refute, but his intuition told him to believe Lin Xiao.
He gritted his teeth and said in a broken voice: "Brother Lin, I listen to you." β
"5 million." Cui Shicheng raised his card.
"The No. 8 boss quoted 5 million, it seems that the boss really likes this stone, is there a higher offer, a higher love?" Nick pulls a high pitch.
"Qiao Yang, the decision is yours, you can do it!" Lin Xiao has already told Qiao Yang about the stone situation, and it is not easy for others to interfere with the wall.
Qiao Yang did not hesitate and replied: "The mall is like a battlefield, I know what to do." Besides, my eldest brother has already set an example for me. β
At this moment, Qiao Yang had already figured it out. His eldest brother can represent Qiao's, and he can also represent that even if Qiao's jewelry collapses, with him, then it is only Qiaoshan's Qiao's jewelry that will fall, not Qiaoyang's Qiao's jewelry.
"10 million." Qiao Yang held up his card.
Everyone in the hall gasped, and Yaqi was silent.
Who is this kid? said that the price increase of 100,000 is good, how can you not play cards according to the routine, and the million-level increase.
Many people don't hold the sign in their hand, they don't lift it, they don't raise it, they shout less to make people laugh, and they shout more to panic.
Qiao Shan turned his head to look at his younger brother and felt a little ridiculous, is the child tempered? The mall is not such a joke. He nodded and motioned for Cui Shicheng to continue.
"12 million." Cui Shi resembles a victorious little rooster.
Money is Cui Shicheng's fist, and he wants to beat Lin Xiao and them in front of everyone.
"15 million." Not to be outdone, Qiao Yang showed his determination to win.
Wang Donglai is dizzy, what kind of plane are you doing? Told me not to increase the price, I worked my own, and the food looked a little ugly. Looking at the smile on the corner of Lin Xiao's mouth, Wang Donglai was excited, could it be ......
Nima! The rivers and lakes are full of dangerous pits, and this kid is very bad.
"18 million." Cui Shicheng shouted angrily. He also saw that Qiao Yang was competing with him.
Is it tolerable or unbearable! If I can't beat you, the money won't kill you.
"20 million." Qiao Yang said unhurriedly.
β¦β¦
There were only two families left in the hall who were making offers.
45 million, this is Qiao Yang's new offer.
If this continues, this rough stone will hardly make any money, and it will have to be built on the rough stone as everyone expected. However, gambling stones and gambling stones, how can there be foolproof.
Qiao Shan couldn't sit still, he didn't expect his younger brother to be so stubborn. Is it a demonstration to me? Since you are so determined to win, then I will knock you into the dust. Father, it can't be wrong to hand over the family business to me.
Qiao Shan took the number plate in Cui Shicheng's hand, slowly raised it, raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "50 million." β
Nick's throat tightened, 50 million! This level of stone is fried to 50 million, which is already a sky-high price. Nick knew it wasn't his credit, it was the young guy's.
He forgot his identity as the host and looked at Qiao Yang in a daze. The people in the trading hall also looked at Qiao Yang in unison, looking forward to this quotation for the future.
Qiao Yang's number plate was not raised again. Nick was a little disappointed, and the applause of the crowd pulled him back to reality.
Drop the hammer! 50 million! No. 5 Rough Stone No. 8 was actually obtained!
Cui Shicheng wiped off the sweat on his forehead, looked at Lin Xiao and his party provocatively, a tragic victory was also a victory, but he didn't see Lin Xiao's disappointment, on the contrary, Lin Xiao's calmness made him feel like a fish in his throat.
Qiao Yang had four rough stones that were not offered, and that was what Lin Xiao wanted to get. In order to prevent Cui Shicheng from disrupting the situation, Wang Donglai played the role of bidding. Not surprisingly, No. 7, No. 13, No. 28, No. 46, these four rough stones, only 10 million belong to Lin Xiao.
These four rough stones did not perform well, but Lin Xiaocheng was in his chest, and Wang Donglai did not persuade him. Lin Xiao, the little brother, he can't figure it out.
In addition to these four pieces, whenever Cui Shicheng fancied the original stones, Qiao Yang raised the price. The ** flavor of both sides is getting stronger and stronger. Qiao Shan was obviously angry, and the price of the rough stone in today's auction was raised by Qiao Yang by two percent.
Money wasn't the problem, the thing was, Qiao Shan felt humiliated.
On the sidelines of the auction, the brothers met, and Qiao Shan expressed his anger in one sentence.
"You're doing it yourself."
Qiao Yang didn't answer, the disgusted eyes of the eldest brother already explained everything, and the life of Runhui Jewelry in Tongcheng will definitely be difficult in the future. But Qiao Yang is not afraid, life has never been smooth, and he has shown his heroic nature in the face of difficulties.
He knew that he was naΓ―ve before, the mall has always been ruthless, and this big brother doesn't necessarily want to be successful.
It would be naΓ―ve to crush Runhui Jewelry so easily. Big brother, maybe you should taste the taste of failure, maybe you will be a little sober.
Qiao Yang set his sights on the finale, the No. 200 rough stone weighing two tons, with a price tag of 50 million.
This is a piece of full gambling material, the shell is fine, and the original stone is pure in color.
Illuminated by strong light, there are emerald particles on the surface, which feels smooth and the grains are not peeled.
All indications show that this is a rare jadeite rough in a century.
Many of today's jewelers come for this rough stone. Winning this rough stone, at least in the next few years, the company's jadeite raw materials will be very abundant.
Lin Xiao is also unable to find fault with the performance of this stone. Therefore, the result of his discussion with Qiao Yang and Gao Ze was that it must be won, regardless of the cost. The main thing is to make the new company famous in the jadeite world. It's a natural advertisement.
Gao Ze was afraid that the funds would not be enough, so Lin Xiao asked Wang Donglai to join in. Wang Donglai was naturally happy with this kind of showmanship, and Lin Xiao promised to ensure that he would not lose.
When Nick finished introducing the No. 200 rough stone with high spirits, Qiao Yang was the first to raise his card.
"100 million." Qiao Yang knew that there was no point in adding millions of dollars to this kind of rough stone, it was better to see blood on the horse, it could give people a shock, and there would be fewer bidders in the back.
Sure enough, most of the people died down and glared at Qiao Yang like a complaining woman.
It was a feeling of powerlessness when you spent candles in a cave room, only to find yourself a eunuch.
"110 million."
"120 million." β¦β¦
Quotations sounded one after another.
"150 million." Cui Shicheng's voice, Qiao Shan's forehead was bruised, and he knew that his younger brother didn't seem to be going to let him feel better.
"200 million." Qiao Yang's voice was like a demon, hitting Qiao Shan and Cui Shicheng's hearts hard.
Cui Shicheng got up and shouted, "Do you have so much money?" "It's no wonder that Cui Shicheng is in a hurry, this time he and Qiao Shan are grasshoppers on a rope, and he needs this batch of rough stones in Tengchong if he wants to enter the jewelry industry.
Qiao Yang looked at Cui Shicheng like a fool and said with a smile: "Is Cui Gongzi out of money?" Do you want me to lend you some? β
"210 million." Cui Shicheng's voice was a little hoarse, this price was already unbearable.
"250 million." Qiao Yang was ready to win with one blow.
No one made any more offers, and even Qiao Shan, who was bound to win, gave up. When Nick knocked off the hammer in a sweat, a new rough auction bid appeared.
Qiao Yang, with the name of Runhui Jewelry, will surely think about the entire jewelry industry today.
At the end of the auction, Qiao Shan came to Qiao Yang's side with a complicated expression.
"Qiao Yang, the jade raw materials worth 200 million, you add 50 million to eat, not including other costs, what do you want? Just to beat me? β
"Big brother, you're thinking too much. I have my own considerations. Qiao Yang said calmly.
"Okay, very good, I hope you don't go out of business before you even open Runhui Jewelry." After saying that, Qiao Shan walked away, he didn't believe that Qiao Yang could withstand a loss of 50 million. How many new companies can there be?
"Brother Lin, is it reliable? Brother, I have pressed more than 200 catties of meat. β
Wang Donglai's face was a little pale, and the auction just now made his heart tremble. Unexpectedly, these two little guys shot so ruthlessly, and real money seemed to be just numbers in their eyes.
The pride of the young man, talking and laughing, the canopy is gone.
"Brother Wang, don't worry. I won't cheat you, this deal is only profitable and not lost. Lin Xiao was very grateful for Wang Donglai's trust, and naturally he would not drag him into the fire pit.
Trust is not allowed to be let down.
Why is this bid king auctioned at a premium, Lin Xiao has his own plans.
Gao Ze also walked over at this time, and the two looked at each other and smiled when they passed by.
There was no turning back from the bow. Gambling is always risky.
In addition to going down, the road is still going down.
Therefore, Gao Ze is relatively calm.
Today is undoubtedly a successful day, and what is optimistic is in the bag.
Lin Xiao was in a good mood, and the wound didn't seem to hurt so much.
He loves the feeling of having everything under control.
"Let's go, drink and go! Shock both of you! Lin Xiao smiled and hugged the two of them away.
"Shout or not Jebby?"
"I'm afraid he's still in the gentle township, and he can't extricate himself. I'll bring him a few oysters back later. β
"Where's the dust?"
"Do you want him to really be a flower monk Lu Zhishen?"
"The tide on the Qiantang River came to me, and today I know that I am me."
"Hahaha......"
The laughter was mixed with the spirit of a teenager, and under the warm sun, it floated into the distance.
