The seven people sitting in the living room basically all know each other. Even if they don't know each other, they have heard of each other and they all greet each other with a smile.
Lu Chengjun was standing in front of everyone, with a table in front of him and a wooden box on the table.
Now that the wooden box is opened, everyone can see the gems inside. The gems shining with red light are like works of art from nature.
"This thing is my wife's family heirloom. If it weren't for the debt, I wouldn't sell it. You are all big bosses in Liuzhou City. Anyone I sell to it will offend others. In this case, the price will be high.
He who wins."
Lu Chengjun said.
"Of course, I don't make any promises, because I went to Yanjing to have it appraised, and they didn't know what kind of gem it was, so if the person who buys it later finds out that it's worthless, that has nothing to do with me.
"
"Okay, Lao Lu, let's make an offer. Everyone is busy, so don't waste our time."
One person smiled and said, "Whether we make a profit or lose money when we buy it back is our business."
Everyone else smiled and nodded.
Seeing this, Lu Chengjun stopped talking nonsense and said directly, "The starting price is 10 million. You can quote whatever you want. There is no limit."
It's not an auction, and the rules are extremely simple. Just order people, and whoever has the highest price will take it.
"Then let me start with fifteen million."
One person said with a smile.
"Seventeen million. My wife really likes this gem. I bought it as a gift to her."
"I'll pay 20 million."
"..."
In just a few minutes, the price rose to 30 million. By this time, several people had given up. Even if the price was increased, it would still be one million to one million.
"Brother, you don't want to make an offer?"
Guo Lin sat next to Hao Ren and asked with a low smile.
"Brother, if you don't give me a quotation, it's useless for me to give you a quotation."
Hao Ren chuckled.
Hearing this, Guo Lin nodded and glanced at the others. At this time, the price had risen to 36 million.
"Forty million."
Guo Lin said with a smile.
As soon as this was said, everyone else smiled and shook their heads, and two people gave up again. As a result, only one person was left to continue bidding.
"I'm sorry, Lao Guo, I really like this gem."
The other party chuckled.
Guo Lin said nonchalantly, "It's okay, the one with the highest price will get it."
The other party raised the price to 43 million, and Guo Lin casually said, "50 million."
It seems that millions are just a few hundred dollars to him.
The other party gave a wry smile and said, "Lao Guo, your price is cruel enough, okay, I give up."
Fifty million is already beyond his psychological limit.
"Fifty-one million."
Hao Ren spoke at this time, looked at Guo Lin, and said helplessly, "Brother, you won't even give me this face."
Hearing this, everyone else looked at Hao Ren and laughed. Many of them had heard of Hao Ren, who was now a famous figure in Liuzhou City, a model and leader of young entrepreneurs.
"Brother, if you open your mouth, I will naturally give you this face."
Guo Lin laughed and stopped paying the price.
Up to now, no one is competing with Hao Ren. After all, everyone is in the same place, looking down without looking up. They must give each other face and avoid malicious bidding. Otherwise, regardless of offending others, everyone
The impression in my mind will also plummet.
The price increase on his side was completed, and no one else had any more bids. Lu Chengjun waited for a while, and when he saw that no one else spoke, he nodded, "Since no one speaks, then this gem belongs to Mr. Hao."
After finishing speaking, he said to everyone, "Sorry, bosses, the auction is over and I have disturbed you."
Everyone stood up, shook their heads, and left directly. Guo Lin stayed behind, seemingly waiting for Hao Ren.
Hao Ren stepped forward, carefully picked up the crystal and put it in his hand. A warm feeling appeared.
This is the crystal that the system values and it is indeed extraordinary.
"System, please confirm that there is no problem with this."
Hao Ren asked in his heart, although Lu Chengjun may not dare to lie, but he is not afraid of 10,000, just afraid of what happens.
"No problem, and this crystal is more powerful than the energy predicted by this system."
The system's voice responded.
Hao Ren put the crystal back into the wooden box, looked at the other party, and said with a smile, "Mr. Lu, please give me your bank account number, and I will transfer the money."
Lu Chengjun told Hao Ren a card number, and Hao Ren immediately transferred 51 million.
After receiving the money, Lu Chengjun also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Hao Ren, "Mr. Hao, what happened at the factory?"
"Well, let's talk about it the day after tomorrow. As for price, I still say that 50 million is the most."
Hao Ren laughed, buying a factory is not an ordinary matter, the contract is a big problem.
Lu Chengjun nodded. To be honest, his factory can sell for 50 million, which is already very good.
Hao Ren took the things and left. Guo Lin took a plate and laughed softly, "Brother, we haven't seen each other for a while. Let's find a place to have a meal together?"
Hao Ren glanced at the other person, he thought that eating was a lie, but talking about things was probably real.
"That's good."
Hao Ren agreed and drove behind him to follow him to a club.
This is a membership system and does not accept outsiders. Only club employees can come in. Those who can come in are basically local well-known people, and the one-time consumption can cost at least hundreds of thousands.
As soon as they entered, there was a row of female greeters in cheongsam who bent down to say hello respectfully. A woman in business attire welcomed them into a huge box with enthusiasm.
This is an extremely gorgeously decorated room, with a small fountain and melodious music playing behind a curtain.
Two veiled women play the piano.
Hao Ren and Guo Lin were sitting on a tatami, with fine tea already brewed in front of them.
Daniel and Guo Lin's bodyguards were sitting in the distance eating, and there were all kinds of delicacies.
At this time, four girls in ancient costumes came in from the outside, with graceful figures and cool gauze clothes. They sat next to Hao Ren and Guo Lin. One gently pressed their acupuncture points, and the other peeled the grapes and brought them to them.
in their mouths.
"My brother wants to buy a factory and plans to launch new products."
Guo Lin's eyes flashed and he asked with a smile.
"I have this plan."
Hao Ren spoke, looked at the other person, smiled and said, "Why, brother is interested?"
"I am indeed interested, but brother, you are not short of money or people, so it is useless for me to be interested."
Guo Lin sighed helplessly.
The next moment, he smiled again and said, "Brother, you invested one billion in Longguo Video some time ago. I was wondering if I should also invest a little. I came here to ask you."
"Right now, Longguo Video is indeed weaker than other platforms, but what it lacks is nothing more than money. I can still get more than one billion."
"To be honest, Longguo Video has not yet been listed on the market. If it develops well, it can be listed later. Our investment can be made back several times, say one billion, or three to five billion easily."
"If you want to invest, just invest. I didn't think too much about it. I just wanted to leave a way out for Yuanxuan Culture Media to prevent it from going bankrupt."
Hao Ren said with a smile.
Guo Lin's eyes flashed and he nodded silently. He was not consulting Hao Ren for his opinion, he just wanted to see Hao Ren's attitude and tell him his own thoughts.
"By the way, do you know about our Liuzhou Chamber of Commerce?"
Guo Lin suddenly said.
"Liuzhou Chamber of Commerce?"
Hao Ren was a little surprised.
"This is a chamber of commerce composed of some entrepreneurs in Jiang Province. Those who can be in the chamber of commerce are basically famous entrepreneurs in Jiang Province. I am also one of them. I am currently the vice president. I am qualified to invite a member to join.
Among them, is my brother interested?"
Guo Lin said slowly.
Hao Ren was a little surprised. Looking at the other party, he had only heard of the Chamber of Commerce, but he didn't expect it to exist in Jiang Province.
"Am I qualified to go in?"
Hao Ren had some doubts. He was not belittling himself, but he was only considered a figure in Liuzhou City. If placed in the whole province, he was really nothing. According to his estimation, there were at least five or six people who could be in the Chamber of Commerce.
One billion, maybe.
Or a boss like Guo Lin with tens of billions of assets.
Those with over 100 billion are the big guys among the big guys and can be called giants.
"Didn't I say that I am the vice-president and I can recommend one person. After being reviewed by the Chamber of Commerce, as long as there are no major problems, there will basically be no suspense."
Guo Lin said with a smile, "Basically no one will have trouble with me on the review process."
In other words, as long as he is willing to do this, it is a sure thing.
“What are the benefits of the Chamber of Commerce?”
Hao Ren asked curiously.
"As a benefit, does it give you more connections?"
Guo Lin couldn't help but laugh. It was someone else who knew he could join the Chamber of Commerce. He was already extremely excited. Hao Ren even asked for benefits.
"I can barely calculate it, but my business is somewhat different from other people's, so I guess there is no overlap."
Hao Ren thought for a moment and said.
"In the business world, you need to get to know people from all walks of life. It will be good for your future. You may need to use them at some point. It is more reliable to seek help from the chamber of commerce than to find other people."
Guo Lin said, "Previously, a member company's capital chain was broken, and the others each took out 50 million, and scraped together more than 600 million in cash to help the other party survive without asking for interest..."
"Of course, the money was paid back one after another in the next year."
"I just want to tell you this. Once you join the Chamber of Commerce, you will have a huge backer. In Jiang Province, you can go anywhere, but anyone who wants to provoke you must think carefully."
Hao Ren's eyes flashed, "Sounds good."
This is almost a high-end version of the Qingyun Villa owners’ communication group.
He seemed to have no reason to refuse such a good thing.
"Brother introduced me to such good things, what do you want to get from me?"
Hao Ren looked at the other party and asked with a smile.
There is no love without reason, and there is no hatred without reason. Guo Lin definitely wanted to get something from himself when he introduced this kind of good thing to himself.
"I know that I don't want other people to get involved in my business, so I'm thinking of doing some export business. My products are good, so I think we might as well open a foreign trade company together."
