Li Zhe was also indifferent. Looking at the attitude of these people, raising placards now is not in vain. He could just wait for them to raise the price and then bid himself. Li Zhe couldn't do such a thing as raising the price by several million in one go. Otherwise I still want to save some money...
While watching these big money keep increasing their prices, Li Zhe was also secretly observing the middle-aged man in Tang suit. His gaze on him had not been removed intermittently, and Li Zhe was a little bit hairy.
Soon the price of this pure jade covered tripod was raised to 8 million by this group of rich people, which was a full 3 million higher than the auction price. At this time, the bidding sound in the venue also changed from the previous one after another. After all, the price of eight million is still a bit high.
After this period of sparse bidding, the price also reached 9 million, and no one was raising the price. If nothing else happened, this pure jade covered tripod would be sold for 9 million. With this The man in question is a bald middle-aged man with a fat belly. He looks like a big boss. He has both the bald head and the big belly that are the hallmarks of a successful person...
The bald middle-aged man already had a triumphant look on his face. It was obvious that he had achieved a small victory in this battle for wealth. The auctioneer on the stage also thought that the nine million was over. After all, The auction house's estimated price was similar to this, so he was ready to make the final decision.
"This gentleman bids nine million. Is there anyone else who bids higher?"
······
The auctioneer said this three times in a row. In fact, he was just following a routine. In his mind, no one would continue to bid.
But just at this moment, Li Zhe smiled slightly, raised the number plate in his hand, and said softly:
"Half a million!"
The auction site was naturally filled with staff from the auction. After hearing what Li Zhe said, they immediately passed it on and signaled Li Zhe to increase the price by 500,000 yuan. In other words, Li Zhe bid 90,000 yuan. One and a half million. In fact, Li Zhe originally wanted to increase the price by one million. After thinking about it, he felt a little heartbroken and decided to forget it. It would be better if he could save a little...
The auctioneer's face was filled with joy. He didn't expect someone to raise the price. He was about to lose the hammer, so he immediately shouted excitedly:
"This gentleman increased the price by 500,000 yuan and offered 9.5 million yuan! Is there anyone else who bids higher?"
This time he immediately became energetic, and even his voice rose a bit! I want to wait for the middle-aged man who just made a bid to continue bidding!
The people around were a little surprised when they looked at Li Zhe. They thought some young man had sneaked in to see the world, but they didn't expect that the price was 9.5 million. It seems that people can't be judged by their appearance. There are also a few people in the scene. Restless, more than nine million is not a small amount. For such a young man, he must be the young master of that big family or someone sent by a big boss to talk things over...
Sure enough, the middle-aged man did not disappoint the auctioneer. The bald middle-aged man's smile disappeared immediately after hearing Li Zhe increase the price. It was not false at all. He also increased the price by 500,000 yuan. Li Zhe also had a black line on his forehead. It seems that he still has to pay for the money, so he just raised the sign again, but this time he just said calmly:
"one million!"
Li Zhe directly raised the price to 11 million, which was enough to buy his own McLaren P1. The bald and obese middle-aged man also hesitated for a moment, and finally lowered his hand unwillingly and did not continue to raise his hand. Cards, after all, eleven million is indeed too much, and my money is not blown by the strong wind!
The other people had long been daunted, so now only Li Zhe's bid was the highest in the entire venue. The auctioneer on the stage was even more happy. He originally thought that the deal would be completed at 9 million, but he didn't expect it halfway. A dark horse came out and directly raised the price by two million!
"This gentleman bids eleven million. Is there any other gentleman who bids higher?"
He still repeated this set of rhetoric three times. Although he knew that it was unlikely that anyone would bid again now. The price was already very high, but in his mind after the dark horse Li Zhe appeared just now, , he still has a glimmer of hope! I hope someone can stand up and continue to increase prices, so that the benefits they can get will be greater!
Seeing that no one answered or raised a placard, he had already raised the auction hammer and was ready to make the final decision.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
······
"one million!"
The slightly silent auction site remembered the sound of a price increase again, and the place suddenly became agitated. Someone actually increased the price? The auctioneer on the stage was also a little overjoyed. Today's surprises really come one after another. You can get whatever you want!
Li Zhe was shocked when he heard the voice, because he already knew that the voice was made by the man in gray and black Tang suit who had been staring at him before.
Following the sound, the gray-black middle-aged man was also looking at Li Zhe, and Li Zhe's heart moved:
"As expected, you are here for bad reasons. It seems that you want to compete with me for this pure jade belt-covered cauldron!"
Without changing his expression, Li Zhe raised his sign again, signaling a one million increase in price!
Before the auctioneer on the stage could react, the man in a gray and black Tang suit directly raised his sign and increased the bid by one million!
After that, the two of them kept holding up the signs while going back and forth. The people who saw it were dazzled and a little dumbfounded. They had never seen anything like this. Li Zhe no longer needed to signal. Everyone knew it. These two masters are paying one million for raising a card once. This is raising a damn card to increase the price. They want to give real money and silver, not just for you two to hold it up for fun. Are you tired?
As the sign-raising battle between Li Zhe and the man in Tang suit continued, the price of the pure jade tripod with lid soon climbed to 20 million, and the price continued to increase.
Li Zhe also began to feel a little confused about what this man in Tang suit meant. If you, a stranger to us, want to trouble me, you don't need to vent your anger in this way. You will be the one to pay for it then. ? Moreover, this man in Tang suit has no expression at all. He follows Li Zhe like a robot every time and just raises his sign. He has no intention of stopping. No matter how much you offer, I will always have more than you. mean······
"Isn't this a fucking idiot who is rich and not very smart?"
Li Zhe was also complaining secretly in his heart. He knew that this ancient warrior had many ways to make money. Li Zhe also thought about not increasing the price and causing this product to bleed. However, thinking of the importance of this pure jade covered cauldron to him, I gritted my teeth and continued to increase the price. Otherwise, with Li Zhe's stingy temperament, he would probably have stopped bidding long ago. He would just look for other jade utensils by then. This jade utensil is really hard to find. I miss this time next time. I don’t know when I’ll have the chance.
Fortunately, Li Zhe was not short of money at all. He kept spending it with the man in Tang suit, so that the final price soared to 50 million, which was already ten times the starting price. The auctioneer on the stage was already Instead of looking happy at the beginning, I was actually shocked. In all these years of doing this business, I have never seen two owners who are so willing to spend money...
It is true that there are hundreds of millions of auction items, but it is rare to raise the price to 50 million for such a piece of jade. I can only sigh in my heart:
"This fucking rich man is really rich!"
He is not afraid that the two owners will not have the money to pay the bill by then. The auction house has already made preparations for this.
When the matter reached this point, Li Zhe also frowned. He now understood that the other party was determined to fight with him. No matter how much he bid, he would definitely follow. It was completely meaningless for him to continue to increase the price. So there was no further price increase.
After witnessing the battle, everyone was waiting with bated breath. Even the auctioneer on the stage did not come out to remind Li Zhe in a scandalous manner at this time. He was also waiting quietly. Logically speaking, Li Zhe would no longer bid. He should continue to go through the process, but now the situation is special, so he is also watching Li Zhe, waiting for Li Zhe to continue bidding to start a new round of war.
Just when Li Zhe stopped raising his placard and did not raise the price, a man in a suit walked over not far away. He was the manager of the Kyoto Hualong Hotel. As the venue provider, he had the right to enter the venue, and Li Zhe Zhe also attended the auction and even watched it in person.
He had also witnessed the fight between Li Zhe and the man in Tang suit just now. Seeing that Li Zhe did not continue to increase the price, he came over, bent down next to Li Zhe and said respectfully:
"If Mr. Li Zhe is currently in trouble with funds, Hualong Hotel is willing to fully support you as long as you need it!"
Naturally, the manager of Hualong Hotel would not think that Li Zhe would have financial problems. Who is this person? That was the man who could start a financial war, but the favor was not done in vain. How could he let go of this opportunity if he was so smart?
When other people on the side heard this, they also had expressions of understanding. The background of this young man was indeed not simple, and he was able to have Hualong Hotel directly financially support him at the auction site!
After hearing the words of the manager of Hualong Hotel, Li Zhe smiled slightly and then expressed his gratitude:
"No, thanks······"
Li Zhe then signaled to the auction house staff that he would not increase the price any more!
When everyone saw that Li Zhe said he would not increase the price, they were a little disappointed but also a little satisfied, witnessing such a fierce struggle.
The auctioneer on the stage did not dare to neglect. He immediately picked up the auction hammer and made the final decision without even going through the usual procedure of asking three times. He was so excited:
"Congratulations to this gentleman for buying this pure jade tripod with a lid for 50 million yuan!"
Listening to the auctioneer's words, many people secretly cursed in their hearts:
"Why does this sound so awkward? It's your auction house that should be congratulated, for the extra price of nearly 40 million..."
Some of the later lots no longer paid attention to, after all, they had just experienced such a battle.
After the auction ended, Li Zhe also left the venue directly and returned to his presidential suite. What Li Zhe couldn't figure out was that the middle-aged man in Tang suit was obviously coming for him, but he chose such a way that made him dumbfounded. For oneself...
"Is it really just a rich, dumb ancient warrior who likes to argue with others when he has nothing to do?"
Just when Li Zhe was thinking, someone knocked on his door. Li Zhe opened the door and took a look, and then his pupils shrank.
His body subconsciously made a defensive posture. The person knocking on the door was the middle-aged man in Tang suit who kept raising the price with him at the auction!
