Chapter 43: Bidding

At this time, there were already a lot of people at the auction venue, these people had special identities and were worth a lot of money, and their wealth would probably account for the majority of the entire Linhai City. However, everyone wears masks, so they don't have to worry about being targeted.

Lao Xu saw that the people who came to the auction hall were eating and drinking casually, and couldn't help asking, "Mr. Lu, is all this food free?" If it's free, that's a luxury. ”

Lu Chengcheng said in surprise: "Of course it's free, do you think the previous admission fee was given for nothing?" Not only do you have to pay the entrance fee, but if you win the auction, you also have to pay taxes, which is not much, but it is enough for everyone to eat and drink as much as you want. ”

"By the way, the household garbage that eats and drinks here must be taken away, and cannot be left in the seat, otherwise you will be fined."

Lao Xu nodded, then came to the dining table and randomly selected some food and brought it back to the seat to prepare to eat.

"Mr. Lu, aren't you two hungry?"

Qin Hao and Lu Chengcheng shook their heads and said that they were not hungry yet, they all came early after eating, so they didn't care about the food here. Lao Xu smirked, and then ate breakfast by himself.

The people next to me didn't care about the food at the venue, thinking that this kind of auction would last for a long time, and no one knew how many hours or even days it would last.

When the time came to ten o'clock, the members who came to bid were basically there, and then a beautiful woman wearing a cheongsam came to the front of the stage, she picked up the microphone and said loudly: "Distinguished guests, I am your auctioneer Lingling, welcome everyone to come to participate in the large-scale auction held in Fulu Pavilion, the rules are still the same, so I won't say more, and then the auction will begin, first show you the first auction item!" ”

I saw a woman in a Han robe holding a tray and then in front of the stage, and then projected the items on the tray onto a huge wall.

The cheongsam woman introduced: "This thing is called Huangbao, which is a kind of clams, with a reserve price of five million, and each increase is not less than 10,000!" ”

As soon as her words fell, someone at the venue immediately raised a sign and said: "Five million and one million!" ”

"Five and a half million!"

"Five million six thousand!"

......

In the end, the item was sold for 6.2 million. What Qin Hao and Lao Xu didn't expect was that the price of the first baby was so high, and the next baby was probably unimaginable.

Lu Chengcheng couldn't help but say, "Are you afraid that you won't have enough money?" ”

Qin Hao and Lao Xu nodded, and Lu Chengcheng said with a smile: "Don't worry, the items auctioned are random, and there are many low-priced items in the future, but there are not many people who need them, if there are many people in demand, the price will naturally rise, if no one wants it, it is not impossible to lose the auction in the end." ”

When the two of them heard Lu Chengcheng say this, their hearts suddenly felt better. After all, both of them are poor, so it would be best to save it.

Sure enough, as Lu Chengcheng said, the value of the items auctioned next varied, and the lowest price was only 50,000. Of course, the price of the things in the auction house does not have much to do with the value of the item itself, if the value of the auction item is only 50,000, but there are many bidders, the final transaction price may be ten times or even a hundred times.

Of course, there are some exceptions, such as some fragments, which may be cherished, but are of little use to the auctioneer, and it is not impossible that they will not be sold in the end.

When the auctioneer began to buy and sell wild ginseng, Lao Xu was excited.

"This is a wild ginseng, fifty years old, the reserve price is 300,000, and the price increase is not less than 5,000 each time, and the auction starts now!" The auctioneer finished and looked at the audience.

For this kind of elixir that is not very old but the price is high, there are not many bidders, and many auctioneers are reluctant to take out this elixir to auction.

It's just that some elixirs are sold on consignment, so the auctioneer has to work hard to sell them.

Fifty years of wild ginseng is naturally enough, but Lao Xu does not have 300,000, and at this time he is in a hurry. Qin Hao motioned to him not to worry, and to see the situation first.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand!"

"Four hundred thousand!"

"Four hundred and twenty thousand!"

"Five hundred thousand!"

After some people bid for 500,000 yuan, others will no longer bid, because the highest price of 50-year-old wild ginseng is this price, and if it is higher, it will suffer a loss.

The bidder bid 500,000 yuan, thinking that no one would continue to bid, and got up and said, "Accept!" Concession! ”

Seeing this, the auctioneer asked again, "Is there anyone else bidding?" If not, this elixir will belong to this boss! ”

"Five hundred and one thousand!" Suddenly, Qin Hao bid.

Seeing that Qin Hao didn't give face, the man suddenly felt a little angry, but he couldn't make a move to Qin Hao, otherwise he would be kicked out by the security guards of the auction hall.

The man glared at Qin Hao angrily and continued to bid: "Five hundred and fifty thousand!" ”

"Six hundred thousand!" Qin Hao said casually.

"Excellent! Very good, the elixir is for you! Seeing that Qin Hao was willing to be the wrongdoer, that person didn't bother to continue bidding with Qin Hao.

The auctioneer smiled slightly, and then announced loudly: "Okay, this elixir belongs to the boss who bid for 600,000 yuan!" Let's move on to the next treasure! ”

After a while, a waiter delivered the wild ginseng to Qin Hao, then took out the credit card machine and said, "Boss, do you want to swipe the card or cash?" ”

Qin Hao took out his bank card and paid directly by card.

The waiter handed the elixir into Qin Hao's hands, then turned around and left.

At this time, Lao Xu couldn't help it, and said, "Boss Qin, I don't have that much money for you, this elixir is too expensive!" ”

Qin Hao smiled and said, "It's a little expensive, but it's worth it!" I'll borrow the money from you, and I'll pay it back when you have the money. ”

Lao Xu nodded, and then remained silent. He didn't expect Qin Hao to be so generous for him, which made him very moved. Thinking about his previous calculations, his face was a little unbearable at this time, and tears couldn't help but remain.

Qin Hao saw that the other party was crying, and comforted: "Lao Xu, you don't have to be so excited, as long as you are willing to work hard for me, everything I have done for you now is worth it." ”

"Thank you Boss Qin for not hating me, from now on, my old Xu will follow you!"

Qin Hao smiled slightly, and his previous worries were finally put down. In Qin Hao's view, Lao Xu is a talent, one more talent, and then he will open a branch for him without worrying about no one.

Lu Chengcheng on the side didn't expect Qin Hao to be so reluctant, and suddenly looked at him differently.

The next auction was a pill, and the auctioneer said loudly: "This Tian Yuan Pill is refined by Yuding Zhenren, and now there is only one left, with a starting price of five million, and each bid is ten thousand." ”

"Five and a half million!"

"Five million six thousand!"

"Five million seven million!"

"Six million!"

"Seven million!"

......

Qin Hao didn't expect a pill to attract so many bidders, he couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Lu, do you know the real person of Yuding?" What kind of being is he? ”

Lu Chengcheng thought for a while and said: "As far as I know, Yuding Zhenren is an alchemy master in the Northern Song Dynasty, this person has a lifespan of two hundred and fifty-six years, and the elixir he is best at refining is the kind of Tianyuan Dan on the stage, it is rumored that this kind of elixir can be taken by everyone once, and it can prolong life for three to ten years after taking it." The effect varies from person to person, but if you are about to die, three years of life extension is considered a long time. If you are a little older, it is said that you can live up to 10 years. It's just that many people don't believe it, so I'm not sure if it's true or not, but one thing is certain, that is, people who are dying can prolong their lives by three years if they take this elixir, and many bosses who are about to end their lives have tried it. ”

After listening to the other party's explanation, Qin Hao suddenly understood why so many people were bidding for the only remaining Tian Yuan Dan. It's just that the auction is still continuing, and the original price of five million Tian Yuan Dan has been raised to 100 million. Is it just a hundred million and it's over? No, far from it.

Qin Hao still underestimated the crazy auction brought by Tian Yuandan, and soon the price was raised to 150 million, which is simply astronomical for ordinary people.

The annual income of an ordinary family is 50,000 to 100,000 yuan, and even if you don't eat or drink, it will take a thousand years to save enough 100 million. However, the bidders on the spot didn't seem to care about 100 million, and in order to get this last Tian Yuan Dan, they kept raising the price.

Soon the price of Tian Yuan Dan was raised to 200 million, and this price has touched the ceiling of previous Tian Yuan Dan auctions, but some people think that this is the last moment Tian Yuan Dan, so the value continues to rise, and in less than ten minutes, it has climbed to 250 million.

For this price, the vast majority of people have given up, and in the end, only two people are still bidding.

"Two seven billion!"

"Two hundred and eighty million!"

"Two hundred and nineteen million!"

"My last price, 350 million, as long as you have an extra point, I don't want it!"

Another bidder didn't expect the other party to be more ruthless than him, and he began to hesitate a little when he raised the price by 60 million. But when I thought that I wouldn't live a few more years, I put down the sign that had just been raised.

In the end, Tian Yuandan fell to 350 million people. Although the other bidders couldn't see its face, the other party's white hair did not deliberately hide it, so everyone began to discuss who won the last Tian Yuan Dan.

In the end, the bidders combed through the famous and rich people in Linhai City one by one, but did not find a match, which means that the old man is from other provinces.

As for the local tyrants in other provinces, there are too many, so other auctioneers no longer care about who the old man is. If the people in Linhai City can still stammer, but the people from other provinces will be difficult.

The auctioneer personally sent Tian Yuan Dan to the white-haired old man, and then congratulated: "Old man, congratulations on getting the last Tian Yuan Dan!" ”

The old man was a little teary-eyed, he took the pill and his hands even trembled a little, he had money, he just didn't want to die, but did people have immortality? No! When you get old, everyone will die one day, so the old man wants to live a few more years when he dissipates his wealth.

Then the auctioneer came to the stage, and then pointed to the next item and said: "This is a Dan book, created by Yuding Zhenren, but it is not the original, but a copy, despite this, its price is not low, the reserve price is 100,000, and the price is increased by 10,000 each time, do you want it?" ”

"One hundred thousand!" Suddenly, a bidder held up a sign.

Qin Hao also wanted to see how different the Dan book written by Yuding Zhenren was, so he immediately raised his card and said, "One hundred and twenty thousand!" ”

"One hundred and thirty thousand!" Bidders followed suit and raised their bids.

"140,000!" Qin Hao bid again.

"150,000, boy, if you increase the price again, I won't follow!" The man looked at Qin Hao with threatening eyes, as long as Qin Hao didn't follow, he could save a lot of money.

It's just that Qin Hao really wanted it, and continued to bid: "160,000!" ”

"Good, good! Boy, the Danshu is yours! The man really gave up, but he threw a murderous look at Qin Hao, which made Qin Hao can't help but get goosebumps.
