"The Zhao family is nothing more than someone else's chess piece. The game is about to begin. Do you want to take action on these first ten dollars?"
Guan Tong shook his head and said:
"No, our money must be saved until the end."
Xiao Jiang chuckled and said:
"what ever."
"Okay, let's start our warm-up auction. Let's take a look from the 1st to the 10th. There are reserve prices on them. Everyone writes down the highest price they think they can pay and enters it on the bidding board in front of them. It will open in three minutes. Let's start.
Bar."
Chen Liangding's voice sounded, and a group of people began to bid on each rough stone according to their own valuation.
These ten pieces of old-fashioned goods have been saved by the Duan family for dozens or even hundreds of years. Almost every piece has been handled by experts and is left as a high-quality product. The price of each piece is very high, and the smallest piece is less than one piece.
The base price for 15 kilograms of materials was 6.3 million, which was 30% lower than the normal price because the Duan family was in urgent need of money.
The largest piece among the ten pieces weighs about a meal, and the base price is 130 million. The total base price of the ten pieces is about 350 million. In this kind of secret auction, it can theoretically fetch more than 500 million.
Everyone made secret bids, so the scene was not noisy at all. Xiao Jiang took out the bidding board, selected a rough stone, placed a price, and waited quietly. Three minutes later, the projection screen on the platform appeared, showing all the rough stones and the names of all bidders.
Prices are sent out.
The largest piece was bought by a jewelry store called Longshan for 180 million, while the smallest piece was bought by Xiao Jiang for 13 million.
Xiao Jiang transferred the payment and waited for the staff to write the name on the rough stone. Zhao Muleng, the head of the Zhao family, sneered:
"Master Guan, it seems that the person you are looking for is not good. A piece of raw ore that is opaque and has no windows. Although it may have some goods, 13 million dare to take action. Tsk tsk, I don't know how you will cry after losing.
."
The purpose of the provocation before the start of the bet is very simple, that is, to disturb the opponent's mentality, because this bet is not to bet on who will take the rough stone, but to evaluate the rough stone, and the rough stone weighing dozens of tons has its skin intact, and the surface of the rough stone is intact.
Hundreds of expert assessments over the years have not yielded a detailed result. Some said it might be worth 20 to 30 billion, while others said it might be worth nothing. So this time the Duan family took out the rough stone and set a base price of 15 billion.
Just to make enough money to turn things around for the family.
Betting on stones can make you rich or poor, but with this kind of super raw ore that has no window and no real evaluation, few people really dare to take action.
So this time in addition to guessing the value of the bet, the Duan family has a second plan to sell the rough stone. If no one bids in the first round, then they will make the first cut and then bid again. If no one bids for the first cut, they will
Keep cutting, if no one buys it for five dollars, then the Duan family will be doomed.
This time, no one from the Duan family was present but they were all watching from the second floor. Because it involved the Guan and Zhao families, it was a big gamble, and everyone present was eager to take advantage of it.
"Next is the last piece of rough stone. It is also the largest piece of Laokeng raw stone in the country. As a treasure that the Duan family has collected for decades, today we asked two experts from the Guan family and the Zhao family to evaluate the raw stone. The estimate has been written.
Then seal it on the table, wait until the jade auction is over and the results will be announced, and then the stone will be cut to evaluate the value. I would like to ask both parties if they have any opinions."
Chen Liangding announced loudly, Xiao Jiang, as the representative of the Guan family, shook his head and said:
"No problem. As long as Mr. Zhao has no problem, we can start the valuation. There are still ten minutes left for the valuation, so Mr. Zhao needs to be careful."
Listening to Xiao Jiang Feng Qingyun Dan's words, Zhao Cheng stood up and went up to the platform with his eyes shining brightly and said:
"Young man, confidence is a good thing, but being arrogant is not a good habit."
Xiao Jiang leisurely stood up on stage and looked around casually for a while, while Zhao Cheng continued to study with a high-power flashlight and a high-power magnifying glass. From time to time, he knocked on the original stone with his hands, and even climbed up and down the stairs to observe from various angles.
This was a matter of life and death for the Zhao family, so the old man had to try his best. On the other hand, Xiao Jiang held a cigarette in his mouth and walked around the boulder, then walked back and sat down.
Guan Tong said to Xiao Jiang:
"Xiao Jiang, old man Zhao is very capable, but I believe that if you take action, this old guy will definitely be in trouble. When I get home tonight, I have something for you to take a look at. Maybe that thing is the source of trouble for our Guan family.
.”
Xiao Jiang nodded. The Zhao family was just pushed to the front when they stirred up trouble. The Chi family might also be pawns, and the people behind the scenes were definitely not just for the Zhao family's wealth. Guan Tong never told the truth because he had his own considerations. Xiao Jiang
Naturally, he understands it very well. Now that he agrees to help, Guan Tong will naturally tell the truth.
Xiao Jiang lit a cigarette again and said:
"Are you going back tonight? Does your home have a security hole? If so, we will let most people in immediately after we return home. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee the safety of the entire compound."
Guan Xiaoling's face changed slightly and said:
"Brother Xiao Jiang, do you mean those people will take action tonight?"
Xiao Jiang raised his eyebrows and said:
"What do you think?"
Guan Xiaoling looked calm and nodded:
"I won't delay it. As long as we go back, it's the best time to take action. In the past few days, grandpa has arranged for all the non-direct people to hold a sorority party in the town. There are only a few dozen of us. If we go back, we will
Go to the anti-bandit hole built back then."
"Ten minutes are up, are you two ready?"
Chen Liangding's voice came again, Xiao Jiang nodded and said:
"I've already written it."
Xiao Jiang waved the specially made cardboard in his hand. In order to avoid cheating or someone playing tricks, Chen Liangding specially customized these two unique pieces of cardboard to confirm that no one could cheat. Chen Liangding looked at the paper and returned to his seat to write a series of numbers.
Zhao Cheng said:
"Everyone has finished writing and put them into the two boxes in front of me. The boxes will be opened when the auction is over."
Zhao Cheng stepped forward and put his cardboard in the box and closed it. Xiao Jiang then walked over. After closing the box, he looked at Zhao Cheng and said:
"Mr. Zhao, can I give you some advice? Prepare the quick-acting heart-saving pills."
Zhao Cheng said disdainfully:
"Young man, I heard that the Guan family gave you their granddaughter. I'm also worried about you. If you go out, you will be beaten to death. That would be a huge loss."
Xiao Jiang cupped his fists and said:
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for reminding me, but don't worry, even if I lose all the Guan family's money, they won't say anything, because I can make their net worth ten times or more at any time, so I won't be beaten to death.
, as for you, once you lose, even if you don’t get heart attack from anger, the Chi family and the people behind the scenes will probably kill you.
Sigh, I hope you won’t think about asking anyone to save your life then, especially not me. Although I’m very free, you probably can’t afford the price.”
