Eyes open to the money in the city

Chapter 25 What Populus euphratica said
Hu Yang didn't care about Jia Dawei and Zhong Wanming's thoughts. After staying in front of No. 4 showcase for a while, he went to No. 3 showcase. Jia Dawei and Zhong Wanming went to other showcases based on the information they obtained.

"No. 4 is really worth 2000 million?"

Qin Zixuan followed Hu Yang's footsteps to the No. 3 showcase, and asked with a frown.

"I can only say that compared to No. 5, which everyone is optimistic about, No. 4 is more cost-effective and more profitable. If you start with 2000 million, you should not lose money." Hu Yang responded seriously. Now, after all, he is already Tianhai. Now that he is a member of the group, there is no need to hide anything from Qin Zixuan.

"Yes." Qin Zixuan nodded and said nothing more.

No. 3 wool is the lowest value among the seven pieces. Populus euphratica observed its appearance characteristics and kept it in mind silently, and then compared the characteristics of the high-quality wool that I had seen before. After comparing the two, I can see some of them. There is a difference, and it can be regarded as accumulating experience.

Ten minutes before the start of the auction, the staff began to clear the venue, and all the people participating in the auction were invited back to their seats and distributed number plates.

As a guest invited by the organizing committee, Qin Zixuan sat in the first row closest to the auction platform, with Hu Yang sitting on her left and Qian Xiaoer on her right.

"Hu Yang, how about we change seats?"

Jia Dawei sat on the left side of Hu Yang. After the two changed seats, he could be next to Qin Zixuan.

"Change seats?"

Hu Yang glanced at Jia Dawei: "Why?"

"My eyesight is not very good, your position is better." Jia Dawei smiled.

"Bad eyes?" Hu Yang nodded: "Well, I believe this, otherwise it is impossible to keep looking away..."

"..."

Jia Dawei rolled his eyes, he was really boring himself, he couldn't change his seat, and someone sprinkled a handful of salt on his wound.

While the two were talking, the jade auction started, and a man in a light brown suit with a curly back came onto the bidding stage with a smile on his face.

"Hi everyone, I am the auctioneer of this auction, Wu Bin."

After a short self-introduction, Wu Bin bowed slightly to everyone in the audience, and then directly cut to the topic: "Let's gossip less, the auction will start immediately. The first auction will be Lot No. 200, with a reserve price of [-] million, and every time the price will be raised, there will be no less." One hundred thousand."

When Wu Bin spoke, some staff members had already pushed showcase No. [-] to the forefront of the stage.

"240."

As soon as Wu Bin finished speaking, someone raised a card and directly added 40.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, someone started bidding again.

"260 million!"

"270 million!"

"300 million!!"

"..."

Soon the price soared to 300 million, and now it has calmed down for a short time.

"This gentleman bid 300 million, is there anyone else to raise the price?"

Wu Bin scanned the audience with a smile on his face.

"How about this piece of material? Is it necessary to bid?"

Qin Zixuan asked Hu Yang's opinion in a low voice.

"Means nothing."

Hu Yang shook his head, the value of this piece of material is 280 million, and the price of 300 million is already a loss. Of course, if the buyer is to stock up, it is not a loss. After all, the price of jadeite has continued to rise in recent years, but , in this case, there is no room for profit.

"Ah."

Qin Zixuan nodded, as expected, she listened to Hu Yang's opinion and did not raise her placard.

"310 million!"

But at this time, Jia Dawei beside Hu Yang suddenly raised his card.

"320 million!"

The man who had previously bid 300 million immediately increased his bid.

"350 million!"

Jia Dawei raised his placard again and raised the price by 30 in one go.

Now the competitor is quiet.

"This gentleman bid 350 million, is there anyone else to raise the price?"

Wu Bin asked with a smile.

The place was silent.

"Okay, 350 million once."

"350 million twice."

"350 million..."

Holding the auction mallet, Wu Bin glanced across the audience again, giving everyone a last chance to increase the price, but still no one responded.

"350 million, three times!!"

"Deal! Congratulations to this gentleman~!"

Wu Bin smiled and pointed to Jia Dawei who was sitting under the stage, and the latter waved his hands proudly.

Seeing this, Populus euphratica sighed softly, and thought, he has lost hundreds of thousands more...

"Hu Yang, what do you mean by sighing?"

Hu Yang's small movements did not escape Jia Dawei's eyes, he glanced at Hu Yang.

"It's nothing, I'm sorry for Mr. Jia's good eyesight."

Hu Yang smiled lightly.

"good eyesight?"

Jia Dawei frowned. Just now Hu Yang mocked him for his poor eyesight, but now he said that he has good eyesight. Obviously this is an irony. That is to say, Hu Yang felt that he was losing money by spending 350 million to take the No. 1 wool.

"I'll cut it up and show it to you when the auction is over."

Jia Dawei snorted coldly. The reason why he paid 350 million for the first piece of wool was naturally the estimate given by Ma Guohao. The latter had already sent Jia Dawei the estimated value of all seven pieces of wool. The maximum is no more than 350 million.

According to Ma Guohao, at least the 350 million yuan won't be a loss, and Ma Guohao is a senior expert in jade, so Jia Dawei still trusts him.

"The next thing we are going to auction is Lot No. 2. The base price is 300 million, and each increase must not be less than [-]..."

The auction continued. Compared with the No. 1 wool, the No. 2 wool was more sought-after. When Wu Bin announced that the auction was not long, the price soared to 500 million.

"How about this piece?"

Qin Zixuan asked Hu Yang for advice again.

"If it's under 800 million, it's okay."

The value of the No. 2 wool is 860 million, so Hu Yang gave Qin Zixuan the price of 800 million, at least he won't lose money after the auction.

After hearing Hu Yang's words, Qin Zixuan joined the bidding army, and a few minutes later, the price reached 750 million.

"800 million!"

Qin Zixuan raised her placard again and announced her listing price. As soon as the price was announced, the scene immediately fell silent. Obviously, this price has exceeded most people's psychological expectations.

"This lady bid 800 million, is there anyone else to raise the price?"

Wu Bin asked with a smile on his face.

At this time, Jia Dawei, who was sitting next to Populus euphratica, felt a little uncomfortable, because the No. 2 wool was promoted by Ma Guohao, except for No. 5, and now the competitor was Qin Zixuan, which made him very embarrassed.

"800 million times..."

Seeing no response from the audience, Wu Bin raised the auction hammer.

"Wait, 810 million."

Jia Dawei struggled for a while, and finally held up his card, and at the same time cast an apologetic look at Qin Zixuan: "Zixuan, I'm really sorry, I'm also very optimistic about this material..."

Qin Zixuan didn't respond, she had a casual expression on her face.

Seeing this, Jia Dawei could only smile wryly.

"This gentleman bid 810 million, is there anyone else to raise the price?"

Wu Bin was naturally happy to see someone increase the price, and immediately looked at Qin Zixuan with a smile on his face. In his opinion, the only person who can increase the price now is this beauty.

However, Qin Zixuan didn't respond at all, and naturally she didn't intend to raise a placard.

"Okay, 810 million once."

"810 million twice."

"810 million..."

Seeing this, Wu Bin was inevitably a little disappointed, and immediately shouted.

"850 million!"

However, just when Wu Bin was about to call out for the third time, Zhong Wanming, who had never participated in the competition, suddenly raised his card.

He suddenly increased the price at this moment, which seemed like a lore.

Jia Dawei frowned. He didn't expect Zhong Wanming to make a move at this time. In fact, before the auction started, he had already listed Zhong Wanming as one of his opponents. It's as harmonious as I said before it started.

"900 million!"

Jia Dawei gritted his teeth and directly quoted the upper limit price Ma Guohao gave him.

"930 million!"

Zhong Wanming hardly hesitated, and directly raised his card. The reason why he came out to "cut the barbarian" was really not to make things difficult for Jia Dawei.

No. 5 must have fierce competition, so of course No. 2 has become his important choice.

Seeing Zhong Wanming directly shouting the price to 930 million, Qian Xiaoer, who was sitting next to him, pursed her lips lightly. Qin Zixuan was separated from her and Populus euphratica, so she leaned over from behind Qin Zixuan and reached out to pat him. Hu Yang's shoulder, and asked: "Old Hu, is this broken stone worth so much money?"

"Not worth it." Hu Yang shook his head lightly.

"Oh, I don't think it's worth it either." Qian Xiaoer nodded, turned around and said to Zhong Wanming, "Brother Zhong, if Jia Dawei raises the price, don't raise it..."

"Ok?"

Zhong Wanming frowned: "Why?"

"Hu Yang said that." Qian Xiaoer replied truthfully.

"It's him again?"

Zhong Wanming glanced at Hu Yang coldly, and said to Qian Xiaoer in a low voice: "Xiaoer, the price I offered is the price after expert evaluation. Do you think those experts are not as good as him?"

"But, Lao Hu hasn't missed it yet." Qian Xiaoer pouted lightly.

"It was luck before, no one's luck will always be so good..."

Zhong Wanming shook his head disapprovingly, and at this moment Jia Dawei gritted his teeth and shouted the price to 950 million.

"1000 million!"

Zhong Wanming hardly hesitated, raised his card again, and at the same time glanced at Hu Yang out of the corner of his eye. In fact, if Qian Xiaoer hadn't persuaded him, he wouldn't have been so radical, but now he is interested in this piece of material. If you are determined to win, you will sing against Populus euphratica.
