Chapter 204: Bidding for the King (Part 2)
Looking at Zhou Bin who was dying, Liu Dong couldn't help but said in surprise: "Brother Zhou, you don't want to buy this wool?"
"I won't buy it. I just got the news that at the end of last month, the Myanmar government troops started fighting with the rebels entrenched in the north! Therefore, it is a foregone conclusion that the production of major jade mines will be reduced this year, and the price of jadeite rough will also be affected by insufficient supply.
As prices rise, I, a businessman who is in the business of hoarding wool, do not need to compete with big jewelry companies like them. When the price of raw jadeite drops next year, it will be the same for me to buy again! There is no need to spend more money now.
."
After listening to Zhou Bin's words, Liu Dong nodded. He had not thought that there was such a reason behind the sharp increase in the bidding price today.
But thinking of this, Liu Dongdao also thought of another thing, "Brother Zhou, the price of this rough jadeite stone has increased, does that mean the price of jadeite has also become higher!"
"Haha, of course, otherwise these jewelry companies would have taken the wrong medicine and spent so much money to buy this piece of jewelry!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong nodded. At this time, he also understood why Qingyun Jewelry paid a high price of 70 million to buy the nine pieces of jade in his hand that were originally worth only 50 million!
"57.6 million, is there anything higher? The bid for Korean jewelry is 57.6 million...!" The auctioneer was confused three or four times. After noticing that no one bid again, he dropped the auction hammer in his hand!
"57.6 million once, is there anything higher?... 57.6 million twice... 57.6 million three times. Congratulations to Han's Jewelry. The most expensive bidding king wool in this Quancheng Jade Bidding Fair belongs to Han's Jewelry!
"
As the auctioneer's high-pitched voice rang out, the entire auction venue burst into applause. At this moment, Han Shizhong, Han Lei and Wei Wuji standing in the front row became the focus of everyone's envy.
However, compared to Han Lei, who was now the center of everyone's attention and was very satisfied with his ambitions. On the contrary, although Han Shizhong was happy, he was far from excited. Originally, the Biaowang wool material was not on Han Shizhong's purchase list this time. It was just Wei Wuji's repeated request.
In addition, Han Shizhong also wanted to make friends with him, so he did not refuse.
However, including the piece of premium wool purchased, the stone gambling funds spent on Korean jewelry at the Quancheng Stone Gambling Conference have reached 120 million! Far beyond Han Shizhong's budget.
"But it doesn't matter if you spend a little more. You can get the money back soon!" Thinking of this, Han Shizhong turned his head and looked towards Liu Dong, and happened to meet Liu Dong's eyes looking towards him.
Soon the serious eyes of the two people met. The unyielding look at each other not only reflected the determination and self-confidence of the two people, but also invisibly improved their aura.
At this time, more and more people noticed their movements, and then everyone's eyes focused on Han Shizhong, who was standing with his arms folded, and Liu Dong, who was silent with his hands in his pockets.
Soon, the atmosphere in the hall, which was originally high, became quiet as if a bucket of cold water was poured on the head. The people who could come to the second floor were basically interested in betting on stones. And they were worth tens of millions.
Rich people, they have naturally heard about the bet between Korean jewelry and Liu Dong. Many people even came to the Quancheng Stone Gambling Conference because of this bet.
"Look, it's right!"
"Well, I didn't expect that this Liu Dong is really not simple. He didn't show any weakness against a shopping mall veteran like Han Shizhong!"
"Yes, yes! It looks like there will be something good to watch next!"
Listening to the discussion in the hall, Sun Yujun, the president of the Quancheng Jade Association, the organizer of the Quancheng Stone Gambling Conference, walked out of the crowd and came between the two of them, "You two, we have already arranged the gambling game today.
All the woolen materials we bought have been prepared, please come with me!"
Liu Dong nodded, and Han Shizhong had no objection. The two of them followed Sun Yujun, one on the left and the other on the right. Then Zhou Bin, Li Yuncong, Wang Qiang, Han Lei, and Wei Wuji followed suit. When they passed by
After that, the people who had originally participated in the open-bid bidding all gathered around him with a 'hoorah'.
Sun Yujun led the crowd around the auction stage, and then walked down another staircase leading to the first floor.
After Liu Dong got off the elevator, he discovered that there was a separate space with an area of more than 1,500 square meters on the first floor of the venue.
"It seems that President Sun is well prepared!"
Liu Dong looked at the row of different models of stone-breaking machines placed in the center of the hall and clearly arranged beside them. He and Han Jewelry, bought the light and dark marked woolen materials in this stone betting auction, and the surrounding items one by one
Liu Dong raised his seat and said calmly.
"Haha, thank you for the award, Mr. Liu! These are just a little effort!"
This time, the gambling between Liu Dong and Han's Jewelry was aroused, and almost everyone in the jade circle knew about it. And the shrewd Sun Yujun naturally saw that this was a great opportunity to improve the Quancheng Jade Trade Fair. So from yesterday
Since the evening, I have been painstakingly setting up the venue just to wait until today.
"Xiaodong!"
"Brother Zhao, why are you here!"
Liu Dong looked at Zhao Defa, who was striding over with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but look surprised.
"Haha, you are so big this time. The whole Quancheng and even half of Dongshan Province have been alarmed by you! No, look, I am not the only one who came here this time!" As he said this, Zhao Defa looked towards the person sitting there.
More than fifty people on the north side pointed.
In fact, Liu Dong had already noticed them when he came down from the second floor, but he didn't know most of them, so he didn't pay much attention. He didn't see Zhao Defa in there!
But at this moment, Zhao Defa couldn't help but show surprise when he looked at Liu Dong. No matter what, he never thought that the man who followed Uncle Long and Mr. Li and sold him a Kangxi pastel snuff bottle for 2.5 million would be such a surprise.
The young man who was inexplicably excited now actually dared to make a multi-billion bet with Han Jewelry, a giant in the jewelry industry whose total asset value was no less than that of the Hua-Tai Group!
Moreover, he had never thought that Liu Dong would have such extraordinary ability in gambling on stones.
"Brother Zhao, let me introduce to you, this is Zhou Bin, this is Li Yuncong, they are all my friends, and this is Wang Qiang, this is Jiang Tingting, this is Zhuang Wen, Brother Li's fiancée
!”
"Everyone, this is Zhao Defa, who is also my friend!"
"Hello!"
"Hello!"
After Liu Dong's introduction, Zhao Defa and Zhou Bin shook hands first. Both of them are people with very high social status and extraordinary experience. The extraordinaryness of the other can be seen from their respective speech, temperament and clothing.
In addition, there is a relationship between Liu Dong and Liu Dong, so they appear to be very polite to each other.
After the few people exchanged greetings with each other for a while, Zhao Defa glanced at the faces of Wang Qiang and Jiang Tingting, and then his playful eyes fell on Liu Dong, and he said teasingly: "Xiaodong, I didn't know that these two are your girlfriends"
ah!"
But this time, before Liu Dong could answer, another acquaintance of his came next to him.
"Brother Liu!"
Hearing the sound, he turned his head and after seeing the person clearly, Liu Dong slightly frowned without noticing.
"Wang Gang...Mr. Wang! I didn't expect you to come here today!" Liu Dong immediately changed his words after noticing the situation around him.
"Haha, Brother Liu's arrogance is astonishing. The billion-dollar gambling game alarmed the entire Quan City, and I am no exception! In addition, last time I witnessed Brother Liu killing everyone at my place with my own eyes. Therefore, Wang is also deeply curious this time.
I want to come over and have a look!”
After Wang Haitao finished speaking with a smile, Hong Changshan, the mastermind of the Black Tiger Gang, Song Qing, the leader of the Tianlang Hall, and Pei Zhiming, the leader of the Xuanwu Hall, who were following him, also bowed to Liu Dong and said hello.
Speaking of which, these three people are also acquaintances with Liu Dong, but two years ago, when they killed everyone in the Black Tiger Gang's main hall, they did not have their current status.
Seeing the warm relationship between Wang Haitao and Liu Dong, and the respect given to him by the three important figures of the Black Tiger Gang, everyone around who knew the identities of these four people changed their expressions. Even Zhao Defa was no exception, after all, faced with such a situation from the Black Tiger Gang
The ruler of the underground world, even with his power, was unwilling to provoke him. Han Shizhong, who saw this scene in his eyes, looked at Liu Dong with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
He didn't understand how Liu Dong, a boy from a poor peasant family, got to know a wealthy businessman like Zhao Defa of the Hua-Tai Group and a ruthless gangster like the leader of the Black Tiger Gang.
However, no matter what, Han Shizhong also understood that the young man in front of him was not as simple and easy to deal with as he thought. However, Han Shizhong also understood that no matter how difficult Liu Dong was, the conflict between them was irresolvable.
"You will not die if you beat the snake, but you will be bitten by the snake! Since you have become a enemy, let me knock you down completely, so that you can never stand up again!" Looking at Liu Dong who was talking to Wang Haitao, Han Shizhong's eyes shot out a sharp coldness.
Mang, decided secretly in his heart.
While several people were talking, the people who came down from the second floor also took their seats in the venue under the command of the service staff arranged by the Quancheng Jade Association. The stepped seats ensured that everyone could clearly see what was happening in the venue.
everything.
"Brother Liu, you have something important to do now, so we won't talk more. After today, I will treat Brother Liu to dinner, and I hope you will appreciate it!"
"It's easy to say, Mr. Wang invites you, I will come on time!"
Although Liu Dong did not hesitate to interact deeply with gang members like Wang Haitao, the antiques of the Black Tiger Gang were something Liu Dong was unwilling to part with, especially the crane painting. Although it is still preserved in the Mustard Seed Space, its preciousness
However, this is the only one Liu Dong has seen so far, and even in terms of value, Huang Binhong's "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is inferior to Huang Binhong's masterpiece.
"Haha, let's make a deal then!" Seeing Liu Dong agree, Wang Haitao couldn't help but show joy on his face.
After seeing Liu Dong nodding, the two exchanged a few words, and Wang Haitao took Song Qing and the others away. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
