CHAPTER XLIV
CHAPTER XLIV
Slap, smack, smack, smack, smack.
In the dead silence of the auction hall, a burst of empty applause suddenly sounded.
Everyone followed the sound and saw Liu Xiong, who was Qian Dashan's opponent, applauding each other with a smile on his face at the moment.
"Although I don't know your name, you really opened my eyes today."
"To be able to conduct this auction with a character like you, I am still honored!"
Liu Xiong said, looked at the master of ceremonies in the audience and said, "No need to count down anymore, I give up continuing to bid with this gentleman." ”
Liu Xiong said that he surrendered and admitted defeat, but the smug expression on his face made it even more obvious that he was the winner.
Just when everyone was still puzzled whether Liu Xiong had lost and his brain was already confused, Liu Xiong's voice sounded in the venue again.
I saw him raise a sneer, and teased Qian Dashan: "For the sake of two million spirit condensing grass, I can buy it for 500 million, which is really admirable." ”
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a scoop of cold water that completely woke up everyone in their sleep.
Previously, because the bidding between the two sides was too fierce, everyone's emotions had been mobilized, which made everyone already numb to the price on the pricing screen on the stage, and even forgot that the initial reserve price of Ning Ling Cao was only two million.
Now Liu Xiong's words have once again made everyone begin to examine the value of the Spirit Grass.
The spectators, who were originally amazed by Qian Dashan's financial resources, couldn't help but start pondering, is it really worth spending nearly 500 million to gamble and buy this herb?
For a while, the audience in the entire venue was also divided into two groups.
"Cut, the money is not as much as others, so I started to say this kind of cool talk, the head of the Liu family is a typical person who can't eat grapes and says that grapes are sour."
"I don't think so, spending 500 million to buy herbs with a reserve price of only 2 million, doesn't this make it clear that you are wronged?"
"Wronged? When people quoted just now, I saw that you were the one who shouted the most excited, why do you now say that people are wronged? ”
"Fart! Lao Tzu, this is seeking truth from facts. ”
Under Liu Xiong's guidance, the audience at the auction has been divided into two groups.
One faction still supports Qian Dashan, thinking that Liu Xiong just has no money to fight with others, and he doesn't forget to make excuses when he loses.
On the other hand, they think that Liu Xiong can calm down in such a fanatical mood, and even have the ability to withdraw from it, even if he loses the bid, he can be regarded as a hero who can bend and stretch.
However, even though more than half of the people have already supported Liu Xiong in public opinion, Liu Xiong still does not seem to be satisfied.
Because for him, in this auction, he has to make up for all the face he just lost.
Liu Xiong asked the former great god, "This gentleman, although I admire your means of spending money. ”
"But I'll tell you a very unfortunate news," Liu Xiong grinned, "Actually, since the auction began, I have already received the news that the value of one hundred Spirit Condensing Grass will not exceed thirty million. ”
"So I don't want to ask you, who do you think we lost in this bid?"
Liu Xiong's simple question once again mobilized everyone's emotions.
"Wait, the head of the Liu family said that he knew from the beginning that the Spirit Grass was only worth 30 million, so why did he still bid so desperately with the local tyrants after that?"
"What do you say?"
Combined with the various situations in the previous auction, as well as what Liu Xiong just said, at this moment, everyone present already has a clear answer in their hearts.
The reason why Liu Xiong played such a desperate bid with Qian Dashan was to deliberately raise the price and disgust Qian Dashan.
And this practice seems to be very much in line with the Liu family's family style of harming others and not benefiting themselves.
"I'll just say, how could the head of the Liu family be so stupid, spending hundreds of millions just to be angry with others, it turns out that he is deliberately raising the price and pitting the other side."
"Shouting prices to hundreds of millions, I have to say that Liu Xiong's courage is really big, if the other side withdraws first, won't he become a big wrongdoer?"
"So your vision is not high enough, the head of the Liu family probably already knows the bottom line of the nouveau riche, and he is just playing tricks step by step."
The on-site discussions came and went, and for a while, Liu Xiong's image changed from a loser in the auction to an old yin B who harmed others and himself.
Although Liu Xiong's operation still ruined his reputation, it was much better than taking the initiative to withdraw from the auction and bear a coercive infamy.
At least in the eyes of these current spectators, the nouveau riche spent hundreds of millions more in vain, just to buy a hundred pillars of herbs, and Liu Xiong, whose IQ, belonged to crushing the other party.
Seeing that the current situation had been re-mastered by himself, Liu Xiong slowly turned to look at his son who was about to be scared silly.
Liu Xiong smiled and asked Liu Jin, "Son, do you now know why I continued to raise just now?" ”
"Father, you are really amazing!" Looking at the surprised expressions of the spectators in the audience and listening to their voices discussing Liu Xiong, Liu Jin could not hide his admiration for his father at this time.
The previous dead end, whether Liu Xiong chose to give up voluntarily or continue to forcibly fight Qian Dashan.
The final result is either to be scolded and forced to lose the face of the Liu family.
Either spend hundreds of millions to buy a medicinal herb with a value of only 30 million, which is said to be a big wrong.
However, in this situation where no matter how you choose, Liu Xiong relied on his quick reaction and calm judgment, not only minimizing his losses, but also showing off his IQ in front of everyone, and really earned back his face.
Seeing his father's hand turn decay into a miraculous operation, Liu Jin was overjoyed at first, and then apologized to Liu Xiong with a ashamed face: "My son is so stupid, he even wanted to stop you just now." ”
Liu Xiong suddenly laughed, waved his hand and said, "You are still young, and sometimes there are errors in judgment, which is understandable." ”
"In the future, you will follow your father and work hard to learn, and you will eventually be able to carry the banner of the Liu family!"
After teaching his son, Liu Xiong, who thought he was the winner, did not forget to look at Qian Dashan proudly and continued to be yin and yang.
"This brother, I'm really embarrassed to let you spend so much money today." Liu Xiong pretended to look guilty on his face, but his tone was as proud as the village aunt was showing off her son who had returned home from the city to the neighbors.
Qian Dashan responded with a smile: "Oh, Boss Liu, isn't it more than 500 million, this little money won't make me feel pain." ”
Hearing Qian Dashan's words, Liu Xiong's heart suddenly felt extreme disdain.
Hmph, just pretend!
Spend more than 500 million to buy 30 million things, and still say it doesn't hurt?
Now with a smile on his face, I guess I will have to lie down in the quilt and cry all night when I go home!
Although Liu Xiong was disdainful of Qian Dashan's indifferent attitude in his heart, Liu Xiong, who thought he knew people, seemed to notice that the smile on Qian Dashan's face really didn't seem to be pretending.
I thought that a nouveau riche like Qian Dashan would start to get angry after knowing that he was crushed by his IQ.
But I never thought that even if Liu Xiong had already mocked with such straightforward words, the emotions of the people opposite didn't seem to be affected in the slightest, and even the faces of the few people were filled with a hint of meaningful smiles.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
"What's going on...... Liu Xiong put away his smile, his brows twisted unconsciously, he has been an old fox for so many years, and he has already smelled a little strange smell at this moment.
Before Liu Xiong could figure out what was wrong, there was a sudden knock on the door in the box.
The one who walked in was the subordinate who was previously entrusted by Liu Xiong to find out Qian Dashan's identity.
Such a subordinate came to Liu Xiong out of breath.
Liu Xiong said with a dissatisfied face: "Why have you been going for so long?" ”
It stands to reason that with the Liu family's huge intelligence network, it is almost a matter of minutes to find someone.
However, this time, the subordinates went for more than half an hour.
The subordinate hurriedly explained: "The head of the family is really this person's identity information, and it is too difficult to find. ”
"Hard to find?" Liu Xiong sneered: "How difficult it is to find the information of an upstart." ”
The subordinate smiled bitterly and took out a thick stack of materials and handed it to Liu Xiong, reminding him in a low voice: "The head of the family, he is not an ordinary nouveau riche. ”
The disdain on Liu Xiong's face did not diminish in the slightest, and he took the information and said: "Nouveau riche is nouveau riche, how unusual can it be?" ”
It wasn't until his gaze fell on the data that the smile on his face froze completely, replaced by an unprecedented shock.
"Money...... Qian Dashan!? Liu Xiong turned his head abruptly to look at the box opposite, his eyes were full of incredulity: "This guy ...... Be...... Is it Qian Dashan!? ”
Starting from scratch and becoming the richest man in China, monopolizing most of the medicinal materials, ores, spirit beasts and other businesses in the immortal cultivation world, Qian Dashan's name has long been thunderous for the immortal cultivation world.
It's just that Qian Dashan is extremely low-key, and he is not even allowed to leave any video materials when he travels, so even Liu Xiong, who has eyes and hands, has never seen Qian Dashan himself.
Now seeing the richest man in China, he is sitting in the box opposite, and he was still fighting with himself a few minutes ago, how can he not shock Liu Xiong.
After thinking about Qian Dashan's identity as the richest man, the confusion just now seems to have an answer.
It turns out that he is the richest man in China, no wonder even if he knows that he has lost hundreds of millions in vain, he can still be so calm.
But the problem is that the smiles on the faces of the group of people in the box just now are somewhat ill-intentioned, as if they are holding back their fun, waiting to see Liu Xiong's jokes.
Liu Xiong's brows, which had just relaxed, tightened again, and he continued to flip through the information in his hand.
Until he saw the two names that appeared in Qian Dashan's asset list.
Dutian Building, owned by Qian Dashan, accounts for 100% of the shares.
Heaven and Earth Chamber of Commerce, owner: Qian Dashan, 100% of the shares
At that moment, the victor who was still immersed in his fantasies, Liu Xiong, who was bathed in the spring breeze, only felt a chill down his spine, and his whole body began to tremble.
"Father! What's wrong with you? Seeing this, Liu Jin hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
Liu Xiong slowly looked up at his son, and said with a pale face: "It's wrong, it turns out that we were rectified." ”
