"Boss, how many people are registered on our website now?" Suzanne asked on the phone.

"According to the background statistics, there are already more than 5 people. If their registration information is true, about 76% are from European and American countries. I don't know how many of these people will be interested in the potatoes and I'm interested in mead." Liu Heming said after glancing at Landuoxi's computer screen.

"I think it should be similar. Some people I knew before, I have sent them registration invitations. Moreover, we own our own auction products, only charge deposits, and do not charge their commissions, which is also very attractive to many people. said Susannah.

"However, we can't compare with Christie's in the delivery of goods. Christie's has a complete set of delivery procedures and channels, which we don't have. I think they must be waiting to see us make a fool of themselves."

"Ignore them. Will we release a total of 150 barrels of mead this time, will it be a little more?" Liu Heming asked.

"No, although mead is not yet on the market, it has been approved by Michael and Morathon. They have a wide network of people, and they recommended it to friends after our website was officially launched. Otherwise, I wouldn't add more Fifty barrels." Susanna said in a relaxed tone.

"For people like them, as long as our products are good, they don't particularly care about the price. Our mead seems expensive, but it has a large capacity, and each small barrel is about [-] milliliters."

"And the characteristic of these meads is that each batch will have its own taste. If you miss this batch, you may miss this taste. Compared with those expensive red wines, our meads are not bad."

"Okay, I'll leave the auction to you, and I'll just watch the excitement." Liu Heming said easily.

He once again felt that money was not wasted, and having Suzanne help him take care of it really saved him a lot of things.

The operation of an auction website is not so easy.The website was built by Landoxi herself, and she also maintains it by herself.

The registration place of this website is in Xiangshui Town, and the server will also be located in the headquarters of the sales company in Xiangshui Town in the future.Anyway, Liu Heming felt psychologically that it would be safer to put it under his nose.

However, the entire auction process of the website requires manual control.Not everyone has the time to stare at a screen auction, some still prefer to bid on the phone, which requires a human to handle.

Fortunately, this is Suzanne's old business, and in the New York branch, the company's employees can operate it.After the auction is successful, the data can be retrieved from the ranch and shipped directly.

To be honest, Liu Heming really didn't intend to sell these potatoes, these potatoes were really delicious.But for their family, the quantity of these potatoes is really a lot, and the current price is also close to the price in his mind.

But it wasn't these potatoes that Susannah auctioned first, but the mead.

This auction is also a little different from previous bidding auctions. This time, there are three bids on the entire page.Although there are three, you can only participate in the auction on one barrel of wine.

The explanation Suzanne gave was to try to make every real customer able to bid successfully, and she was thinking about the customer.

But what about the actual situation?This is also a small bidding technique, you can directly see the real-time auction prices of the other two barrels, giving you a rough reference.

This is a bold attempt. If the quality of the product is good, this can increase the price a little bit.If the quality of the goods is average, there may be a situation where the auction price is lower.

Susanna is really confident about these meads, and has already done a good job of publicizing them.If the bet is correct, then the slightly expensive potatoes will be easily auctioned off.In terms of unit price, the price of potatoes is not as high as mead, but the quantity of potatoes is large.

If the enthusiasm is high when everyone is bidding for mead, then there is no problem in driving the auction of potatoes under the stimulation of this enthusiasm.

At eleven o'clock in the morning, the auction officially started.Three barrels of mead were refreshed on the web page, all with a base price of $8000.

The entire bidding process will last for 3 minutes, and Liu Heming is also clenching his fists and staring at the slowly increasing number under the three barrels of wine.The barrel in the middle is a little weaker and only rose to $8600, and the barrels on both sides have exceeded $9000.

Three minutes passed, and the final transaction price did not disappoint Liu Heming. Suzanne's strategy had achieved initial success.The mead on the left and right are $3 and $9300, respectively, while the barrel in the middle came from behind and hit $9500.

After this round of auctions ends, the next round of auctions will proceed directly without any buffer in between.

As more and more meads were auctioned off, the transaction prices of these wines gradually stabilized, basically above [-] US dollars, and the highest transaction price of a barrel was [-] US dollars.

最后三桶的竞争比较激烈，分别是11250、11400、11300。会拢到一起，这150桶蜂蜜酒的全部收入是150八万五千美元。比刘赫明的起拍价高，达到了10566美元一桶。

Seeing the money accumulated on the website, Liu Heming felt that his hard work of staying in front of the computer and not even going to the toilet once was not in vain.

However, although this auction method looks very good, it has also caused many people to complain.I think Liu Heming should be more generous and sell five barrels of five barrels, so that he can buy enough at one time, so as not to have to stare at the auction.

Liu Heming also saw the comments posted on the side, but ignored them.At the beginning, he also asked Susanna such a question, but was severely despised by Susanna.Suzanne said it well, will someone who can spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy wine and drink have no subordinates to help him bid for it?

"Okay, let's not hang around here for the next potato auction, it should all have a good result." Liu Heming clapped his hands and said.

There were a lot of people crowded into Landuoxi's room, which made the girl a little nervous.This girl is really used to staying at home, and she is not used to these people watching, even if everyone just wants to see the real data from her side.

"Hey, now why do I feel like our mead is losing money?" Sasha said with a frown after coming outside.

She never cared about this aspect before, and she didn't know why, it was obvious that the transaction price was so much higher than the reserve price, but she also felt that she had sold at a loss.She was very puzzled and thought it shouldn't be.

"I used to be like this too. Whether it was selling those finger sweet potatoes or giant morels, I would regret it when they were sold out. Because only we know that they are really good." Liu Heming said with a smile.

He does feel this way too, because these products are really unique and can only be produced on his own ranch.

But no matter how good you feel, you still need a price to measure their value.Even if he felt that those prices were not worthy of them, it was a normal market reaction.

"Boss, boss, it's amazing. The latest transaction price of our potatoes is 1300 US dollars a pound. A group of ten pounds, the auction is so fast." At this time, Heloise ran out of the room to report the latest battle report .

"Heloise, keep working hard. I have informed Anderson that we will have a seafood dinner tonight, and we must find the best seafood." Liu Heming said solemnly.

"OK, I promise to complete the task." Heloise said also very seriously.

"Do you think it's interesting to play like this?" Sasha on the side said helplessly.

"Haha, it's really fun. My favorite thing to watch is Alex Salute." Liu Heming said with a big laugh.

After sitting in the yard for a while, I saw George and his gang driving over.This was also specially invited by Liu Heming. No matter whether today's auction is successful or not, it can be regarded as the official opening of the auction, so it has to be celebrated.

As the head of procurement, Anderson really paid attention to it today. Whether it is crabs, lobsters, or prawns, they are all very big.

After they learned the transaction price of the mead, their eyes widened.As a small partner in Xiangshui Town, Liu Heming gave a bucket to each family.They didn't pay much attention, and now they know, they accidentally drank more than $1.And as they speak, the price of potatoes has climbed to $1350 a pound.

Even Liu Heming didn't understand why these people had such confidence in these potatoes. He thought it would be great to be able to stabilize the price at $1100.After all, the most expensive potato in the world is only 500 euros per kilogram.

The price of his own potatoes is now higher than some ordinary black truffles.

Potatoes come in groups of ten pounds, and ten groups, or one hundred pounds, are auctioned at a time, which takes a lot less time in total than auctioning off mead.

However, there was a small problem. There were three groups of potato bidders who did not pay the full amount within the stipulated time, so these three groups of potatoes were regarded as failed auctions.Liu Heming didn't plan to continue selling them either, so let's keep them at home.

The entire potato auction was less than two tons, which was 4000 pounds, and the entire auction price almost reached 520 million US dollars.If you count the money from the mead auction, today's auction can be said to be a great success, with a daily income of 670 million US dollars.

Although it is said that some labor costs have to be deducted here, compared with the huge sum of money obtained from the auction, that is all small money.

And those meads can be auctioned once a month. After everyone really tastes the taste of these meads, I am afraid that the transaction price of the next auction will increase a little.
