CHAPTER XXXVI

"Master, we've got something to buy." Seeing that it was finally time for the Ning Ling Grass auction, Wang Xue hurriedly pushed Zhang Chongli, stop ™ dating online, and hurry up to do business for the old lady.

Although Zhang Chongli looked reluctant, he still put away his mobile phone and set his eyes on the stage.

"The starting price is 2 million, does anyone want to increase the price?" The master of ceremonies asked passionately above.

Wang Xue picked up the sign in her hand without hesitation, but just as she was about to lift it, she was quickly pressed down by Zhang Chongli.

"What?" Zhang Chongli and Wang Xue asked each other in unison.

Zhang Chongli glared at the girl and said, "Stupid, you're afraid that others won't know that you want this thing, right?" ”

"Auction, if you want to do big things with little money, you have to be calm."

"Don't rush to call the first price yet, let's wait for someone else's reaction."

Although Wang Xue couldn't wait to buy the Spirit Grass and treat the dantian for Brother Yu, seeing Zhang Chongli say this, he obediently put down the brand in his hand and began to wait.

As the master of ceremonies shouted out the starting price of the Spirit Grass, a full ten seconds passed, but there was still no one to bid more.

Time passed minute by minute, until after nearly five minutes of cold play, it seemed that no one was interested in this product, and the master of ceremonies began to shout: "Since you are not interested in this product, then after the ten-second countdown, this product will be unsold." ”

"Ten, Nine, Eight......"

Seeing that the master of ceremonies had begun to count down, Wang Xue hurriedly looked at Zhang Chongli anxiously, and asked with her eyes if she could hold up the card.

Zhang Chongli was still there, just waved his hand at Wang Xue gently, signaling the girl to be more patient.

Until the end, when the emcee's countdown was finished and the hammer was about to fall, Zhang Chongli suddenly raised his hand to signal Wang Xue to shout.

Wang Xue, who was almost suffocated, slammed the brand: "Add 100,000." ”

"Oh! Some guests have increased the price, and the current price of Ning Ling Grass is 2.1 million, don't you know if there are any other guests who want to increase the price? The master of ceremonies continued to liven up the atmosphere.

The corners of Zhang Chongli's mouth flashed with a smug smile and said: "There are two kinds of people in the auction hall, one is who understands the market of goods, and the other is who does not understand the market and follows the trend. ”

"People who understand prices are not terrible, after all, once the price of goods exceeds their estimates, they will give up decisively."

"And in the auction, the most afraid of encountering is the group of people who don't understand the market and follow the trend indiscriminately."

"If you can't wait to make an offer as soon as you come up, it's like telling those who follow the trend that this thing is precious, and I can't wait to buy it back."

"This fire is lit by you like this, and at that time, even if the goods exceed the estimated price, the followers will still blindly throw money into it."

"At that time, we'll have to pay a bigger price to bring the Spirit Grass back."

Due to the fact that the spirit grass is not common, and the specifications of this auction are extremely high, there is almost no item with a low price of less than 3 million, and in front of a lot of precious goods, the spirit grass with a reserve price of only 2 million is extremely mediocre.

Not many laymen see its value.

And more importantly, with Zhang Chongli's patience and temptation, it seems that there is no one in the entire auction hall who really knows the value of Ning Ling Cao.

"Master, shouldn't we be able to buy the Spirit Condensing Grass for two million and one hundred thousand, right?" Wang Xue asked Zhang Chongli excitedly.

Li Yu was also excited at the moment.

After all, the worst idea at the beginning was to spend 30 million to shoot the Spirit Condensing Grass, but now Wang Xue quoted at a price of 2.1 million, but there was still no one on the scene to increase the price.

If it really happened like this, it would be equivalent to a direct loss of nearly 28 million.

Rounding it off, it is equivalent to giving away the Spirit Grass directly for nothing.

Looking at the happy appearance of the two young people, Zhang Chongli sneered: "So, young people are young." ”

"At the auction, as long as there is someone following the trend on the spot, as long as someone quotes a fixed price, even if you pull a piece of to sell, you can definitely speculate the price."

Human nature is greedy after all, so even if you don't know the actual value of the Spirit Grass, when you see someone making the first price, other followers will immediately have a fluke mentality and try whether they can be simple.

After coming and going, the price of Ning Ling Grass will definitely be slowly fried.

Hearing Zhang Chongli say this, the expressions of the little couple suddenly withered a lot, and Wang Xue couldn't help but ask with some disappointment: "Then Master, how much do we have to spend to buy the herbs?" ”

Zhang Chongli subconsciously took a cigarette in his mouth, ignored the complaints of the people around him, and thought about it for a while: "No matter how you drop, it will cost five or six million." ”

"If you are unlucky and meet some stubborn people who are not bad for money, then you may have to run for 30 million."

While talking, the price of Ning Ling Grass began to rise little by little, just as Zhang Chongli expected.

First, someone tentatively added 10,000 yuan, and then everyone began to test it up a little.

Two and a half million.

Million.

Three and a half million.

Three million six thousand.

Three million six hundred and sixty thousand.

But no matter how fierce the bidding process was, Zhang Chongli still repeated the action of waving his hand just now, signaling Wang Xue to calm down and wait patiently.

As the auction price rose to 3.7 million, the rest of the competitors began to gradually withdraw from the market, leaving only two people who were still adding 11,000.

Seeing this, Zhang Chongli realized that the opportunity had come, so he calmly said to Wang Xue: "You can shout the price now." ”

"How much to shout?" Wang Xue blinked her eyes and waited for her master's instructions.

Zhang Chongli took a puff of cigarette: "Let's go directly to six million." ”

Wang Xue was stunned for a moment, only feeling that she didn't hear the price that the master said, after all, when others shouted the price, they all shouted 110,000 upwards, and the more ones were 100,000 plus 100,000, but Zhang Chongli opened his mouth as a lion, and directly took a bite of the price of nearly 2 million.

Zhang Chongli said helplessly: "You heard it right, what I said was directly shouting six million." ”

Wang Xue glanced at Zhang Chongli with some hesitation, after all, adding two million more in one breath is not a small amount.

"You just believe me, don't worry about the price increase." Zhang Chongli smiled at Wang Xue.

Only then did the latter raise his sign and shouted at the master of ceremonies on the field: "Six million!" ”

As soon as the price of six million came out, it caused an uproar in the audience, although the price of six million was not high compared to the final transaction price of other commodities, but the price increase of two million in one breath still surprised everyone.

The guests who were originally not much interested in Ning Ling Cao also put down their mobile phones at this time and looked up at the center of the stage.

"Are you sure that after the six million shout, others will not raise the price again?" Looking at this round of price increases, it has quickly attracted the attention of the people around her, and Wang Xue has gradually become uneasy in her heart.

After all, according to the theory that Zhang Chongli said before, the more lifeless the auctioned goods are, the more unpaid they are, and the more people who know how to pick up the leaks in the end.

Now that the heat of the Ning Ling Grass auction has finally dropped, only two people are left bidding for each other, but Zhang Chongli increased the price by two million with a wave of his hand.

From Wang Xue's point of view, isn't this operation deliberately stirring up the heat of the Spirit Grass again?

As if seeing the confusion in Wang Xue's heart, Zhang Chongli explained with a smile: "Girl, I think you really don't understand anything." ”

Zhang Chongli said, pointing to the position of the two bidders just now: "Don't look at the fact that there are only two people bidding for each other before, and each time it is only 11,000 yuan." ”

"This kind of competition between the two sides to increase the price little by little is a manifestation of being caught in a struggle."

"Adding 10,000 at a time doesn't seem to be a big deal, but once the two sides are competitive, it is easy to raise the reserve price of Ning Ling Grass."

"So if you want to make a move, you have to give them enough shock at one time to discourage these two people."

After Zhang Chongli's explanation, Wang Xue reacted.

When two people bid on a product, it can easily turn into a tug-of-war with each other.

However, since neither of the bidders actually knew the true value of the Spirit Grass, each price increase would only add 10,000 yuan on the previous basis.

Although 10,000 yuan is not even a fraction of their living expenses for these wealthy people, even if the money invested is small, it can't stand the frequency of price increases on both sides.

In addition, adding only 10,000 yuan each time will cause the two competitors to have a kind of fatigue and numbness to the current auction price.

The so-called gathering armpits into fur and sand into towers, maybe in just half an hour, these two fighting competitors can raise the price of Ning Ling Grass to seven or eight million.

And the best way to break this entanglement is to force up your own bids and wake up these two bidders with a single blow.

Adding two million in one go is like a big gamble made by a madman who ignores the risks.

Once this price is shouted, it is equivalent to giving the two bidders a multiple-choice question.

Either you add two million more and ignore the risks like a madman like me and continue to compete.

Either you just stop it obediently and let me take the Spirit Grass away at a cost of two million more.

The price increase of 10,000 yuan for 200 times is far less shocking than the one-time price increase of 2 million.

Most competitors, after facing this situation, their first choice must be to choose to stabilize and give up the Spirit Grass.

After all, who would fight a madman.

And this auction seems to be under Zhang Chongli's control every step.

When Wang Xue shouted out the price of six million, although it attracted the attention of everyone present, although the heat of the Spirit Grass was re-fried, no one present continued to follow up the price and compete with Wang Xue.

After a full minute, the master of ceremonies saw that no one continued to quote, so he asked everyone again: "Has no one continued to increase the price?" ”

"Six million for the first time!"

At that moment, Wang Xue and Li Yu both began to look at Zhang Chongli with admiration.

Although this master has a bad temper, is super narcissistic, and will do some things that will get his brain into water, there will still be some flashes of light occasionally.

Feeling the adoring gaze of the two of them, Zhang Chongli couldn't hide his smug smile, and put on a master's appearance and said, "This kind of operation makes you worship me so much?" ”

"Then what are you going to do if I pull out something more dick?"

"Be calm, so let's say, you young people just can't hold their breath, and they like to be surprised by a little thing."

Zhang Chongli was proud, but he did not wait to herald the completion of the auction and the successful transaction of the hammer.

On the contrary, it was the emcee's cold and excited voice that startled him: "Oh! The customer in the VIP box increased the price by ......"

"Multi-...... How much? Ten million! ”

"Friends, the guests of the No. 3 VIP box have increased the price to 10 million!"

Zhang Chongli stood up from his position suddenly: "Niang Xipi, what's the situation!?" ”

Due to the action of getting up too much, the cigarette butt of the cigarette was directly rubbed off, and the fiery red cigarette butt fell on Zhang Chongli's thigh impartially.

"Scald, hot, hot." For a while, Zhang Chongli was like a monkey, dancing in the back seat, attracting everyone to look at him again and again.

Li Yu and Wang Xue are eager to bury their heads as low as possible at this moment.

It's a shame!

Combined with the words that Zhang Chongli just bragged about, it even made the little couple feel that if the master's mouth was not opened, every time he pretended to be forced, he would be slapped in the face.

But now it's not a matter of Master Ji's foolishness, the most important thing is why someone would go with them to grab the Spirit Condensing Grass, and as soon as they make a move, it will be 10 million to swallow mountains and rivers.

For a while, the three of them couldn't help but look towards the No. 3 box on the second floor, and in the partitioned glass room, the three of them seemed to have found two extremely familiar faces.

Liu Xiong and Liu Jin father and son.
