"Can you lend me the ten million that Song Shiming gave you in return?"
Borrow ten million?
Faced with Li Yuanxi's abrupt and unreasonable request, Xu Qian almost thought he had heard wrong.
If Li Yuanxi's monthly income is several hundred thousand, it is reasonable to ask for a loan of 10 million, and he can pay it off in a few years. But he is just a physical education teacher at Yingyu School. No matter how high Yingyu’s salary is and how good the treatment is, the monthly salary is only more than 10,000 yuan. If he has to pay back 10 million yuan, he will have to pay it back for the rest of his life. This is simply a mismatch between income and liabilities.
Unless, you don’t plan to pay it back at all.
"What do you want the money for?" Xu Qian did not refuse, but asked with a quizzical look on his face.
"Buy something. If you're lucky, I can pay you back tonight."
Can you pay it back tonight? Xu Qian became even more puzzled.
"Hurry up, or it'll be too late." Li Yuanxi became anxious.
Regardless, he doesn’t have many friends, Li Yuanxi is one, and he doesn’t know many people in this world who can borrow so much money. Moreover, this money was obtained by accident. In the worst case, it would be treated as if it had never been borrowed. Have you ever received this money?
Xu Qian gritted his teeth and handed the card to Li Yuanxi.
"5.5 million" Ning Fei reported the latest bid.
The whole audience exclaimed. This necklace is very expensive, but there is no reason why the price should be so high.
"5.8 million" Huo Mingwei said a number calmly, shocking the audience again.
The competition for the first lot was already so fierce, which was unexpected by everyone, including Ma Yuan and Zhang Yunting.
Ning Fei's face turned red and he looked at Huo Mingwei unconvinced. He couldn't understand, is this woman really worth it? The Ning family, in terms of financial resources, is much stronger than the Huo family, but they can't just treat money like dirt for a woman. Although he has been authorized to manage more than half of the family's property, he has spent millions carelessly. , it’s still hard to explain.
"5.8 million for the first time." Huang Jiajia looked at Ning Fei with a smile, clearly stimulating him to make another offer.
"We can't lose. If I just give in, the news will spread throughout the city tomorrow, and everyone will think that I, Ning Fei, are not as good as Huo Mingwei, but the Huo family obviously has less financial resources than us, why can Huo Mingwei not frown? Wrinkle? Is this woman really that important? She is just an ordinary college student with no background at all. Could it be that Huo Mingwei is really tempted?" Ning Fei thought quickly in his mind, Huo Ming He knew very well who Wei was and would never engage in loss-making trading. "No, it's impossible. There must be some inside story that I don't know about. Anyway, we can't let Huo Mingwei succeed."
"Six million!" Ning Fei gritted his teeth and raised the sign in his hand to shout out the number.
"6.5 million" Huo Mingwei didn't even have to think about it, and it went up by another 500,000. Everyone present had auction experience, and everyone could see that Huo Mingwei was far from reaching his limit, but Ning Fei was almost there.
"Does the Huo family really care about this kid?" Ning Fei felt so bitter that he almost cried. If he spends several billion to acquire a company or a piece of land, there is no problem. Even if he spends several million to hold a cocktail party, it is considered a normal social expenditure recognized by the family. But if he spends several million to buy a girl to make her happy, the Ning family will probably be upset if they find out about it. We have to consider whether we should change the successor. This is obviously a blind and irrational behavior. The Huo family obviously still has Huo Mingxuan competing with Huo Mingwei to become the future head of the family, but the situation is not as optimistic as Ning Fei's.
Are you still calling out the price? For Ning Fei, this was a difficult choice.
He looked at Lin Qiaoni, then at Huo Mingwei who was calm and collected, and finally chose silence.
"Ten million!" A voice that had never appeared before. When Ning Fei died down and everyone thought Huo Mingwei had won the diamond necklace for 6.5 million, someone actually shouted out 10 million!
Ten million? Everyone was shocked, including big guys like Ma Yuan. Most of the people present could spend 10 million, but who would spend 10 million to buy this necklace? This is obviously a loss-making transaction, and it is so much higher than Huo Mingwei's bidding price. Is this something a normal person can do?
The most surprised person was Ning Fei. He was petrified and looked at the man who shouted out ten million. He had serious doubts about the way he had accumulated over the years in observing people.
"What are you doing? Where did you get so much money?" Lin Qiaoni looked at Li Yuanxi nervously. She couldn't understand what was he doing as a foreigner joining in the fight between the two rich men? Although this is not a formal auction, it is no joke. Formal auctions require a certain amount of deposit to be paid in advance. If you break the contract after a successful bid, the deposit will be confiscated. But this was a charity auction, and no deposit was paid, but all the people who came were respectable people. Even Ma Yuan never thought that there would be people who had no money and were randomly bidding.
Huo Mingwei hesitated for the first time. His calmness and calmness were overturned by Li Yuanxi's "ten million". For the first time, he did not give a higher bid immediately.
"You... Who are you?" Ning Fei couldn't help it. He couldn't figure it out. He had found someone to briefly investigate Xu Qian today. A high school student, a college student and a high school physical education teacher. What physical education teacher can spend 10 million yuan to buy a useless necklace? Even more heroic than him and Huo Mingwei, two wealthy young men?
"Me? I'm just a teacher, a physical education teacher." Li Yuanxi responded to Ning Fei calmly.
Ning Fei looked strange, "I mean, what do you do at home?"
In Ning Fei's view, the only reasonable explanation for why a physical education teacher can be so heroic is his family background. Some rich second generation people just don't want to do their family business, so they run away to become teachers.
"My family... in the parlance here, is considered a civil servant." Li Yuanxi rolled his eyes and thought for a while before replying.
"Ten million for the second time!" Huang Jiajia had already gently raised the auction hammer.
Civil servant? Ning Fei nodded slightly with a look of surprise. Sure enough, this boy's family was an official, and he should be a high official. He also glanced at Song Shiming, meaning that Li Yuanxi and Song Shiming should be in similar situations.
Ning Fei was happy this time and looked at Huo Mingwei with a smile. Aren't you a cow? Don’t you look determined to win? Haha, you must be deflated now.
For Ning Fei, as long as Huo Mingwei is unhappy, he will be happy. The two were friends who had known each other since childhood, but they were also rivals after competing for so many years. Ning Fei lost more than he won. Seeing Huo Mingwei's face that looked like he had eaten a fly, he went crazy with joy.
"11 million!" Huo Mingwei looked very unhappy, but still shouted out a price.
"If you can offer a higher price, it's yours." Huo Mingwei turned to Li Yuanxi and restored his gentle smile. He just noticed that Li Yuanxi came to Xu Qian and said something, and later Xu Qian gave Li Yuanxi something.
In order to repay his kindness, Song Shiming gave Xu Qian a bank card with 10 million in it. Huo Mingwei knew this, so he guessed that the 10 million bidding money was provided by Xu Qian.
After thinking clearly about the source of funds, Huo Mingwei reported the number 1,100. He did not think that Li Yuanxi could come up with more funds than this.
Indeed, Li Yuanxi has no money, not to mention 10 million, not even 10,000. He has just arrived in China for a dozen days and has been a high school teacher for just over a week. His first month's salary has not been paid yet. He thought that borrowing the money from Xu Qian would be enough. Who would have thought that Huo Mingwei was so powerful.
When Li Yuanxi faced Huo Mingwei's provocation, he didn't react excessively. He just looked at Huo Mingwei calmly.
Ning Fei then approached Li Yuanxi and said, "I will give you 1.05 million for free. You can fight with him again."
Li Yuanxi was not surprised and just nodded slightly.
"11.05 million!"
The bidding price, which was only slightly higher than Huo Mingwei's 11 million, was called out by Li Yuanxi, and many people showed strange expressions. The previous bidding was so fierce that some even directly raised the price by several million. Now it is only 50,000 more. Does it make sense? Will Huo Mingwei, who can afford 11 million, be choked to death by the extra 50,000?
The most uncomfortable thing is Huo Mingwei. He regrets what he just said to Li Yuanxi. If he continues to bid, it will not only be a matter of high cost, but most importantly, he will become a dishonest person in front of Lin Qiaoni. The purpose of wearing this necklace was to please Lin Qiaoni. Another important purpose was to declare to Ning Fei that only he could pursue this woman, and others were just wishful thinking. But now, no matter whether he bids again or not, this scene will not be pretty.
Ning Fei's judgment was correct. Huo Mingwei was a man who cared about interests in everything. He would do something because it would bring benefits far higher than the cost. But when paying for something does not necessarily mean getting more than giving up, then he will decisively choose to give up. This is his economics.
Huo Mingwei didn't speak, but left quickly and walked towards the bathroom in the corner of the Paris Hall.
Several people were surprised at first. Why did Huo Mingwei leave the auction before the bidding was over?
It wasn't until Ning Fei pointed at Huo Mingwei's back and laughed that everyone realized that for Huo Mingwei, the bidding was over.
If the subject of this bidding is Lin Qiaoni, he can pay one billion, but this is just to buy a gift, and it will not ultimately determine whose woman Lin Qiaoni becomes. Moreover, the family industry has tens of billions of assets, which does not mean that tens of millions of funds can be easily mobilized. Tens of billions are assets, not cash, and even if it is cash, it is funds in the company account, not personal funds. A rich man with a net worth of hundreds of billions does not mean that he can give tens of millions of gifts to others casually, because he may only have tens of millions in his personal bank account. If funds from the company account are used to purchase, it will be the company's assets. If If you want to give it as a gift, you have to borrow administrative expenses for business entertainment expenses in the accounting entries. If you need to do an audit someday, give someone a gift of 10 million. I can't explain this clearly. Maybe it will happen again. Cause all kinds of suspicion.
