Chapter 431 [Money Stealing Trick]
Faced with Chen Ling's request, everyone in the consortium did not dare to refute at this moment. After all, Chen Ling's willingness to stay now has given them a lot of face... The five directors looked at each other and gritted their teeth.
They are not sure who set this up secretly, but there is no doubt that someone is viciously trying to kill each other. The original consensus has been completely broken. Now they are all fighting on their own, not you. Death means my death.
"Special envoy, if you want to trade, would it be more convenient to go to the auction venue?" Zong Wen asked tentatively.
"No need to bother."
Chen Ling turned back and stepped into nothingness, walking towards the center of the venue again, "The valuable treasures are still being appraised at the auction. The transactions this time are only some worthless small and medium-sized gold treasures... I won't bother with the auction."
Chen Ling raised her hand and lightly snapped her fingers.
[△Special envoy Chen Ling snapped his fingers, the hotel’s power supply returned to normal, light enveloped the venue again, and the thunder outside the window gradually weakened]
Snapped--
The lights above the venue flickered slightly, and then turned on one after another. Only a few bulbs on the edge that had been completely blown to pieces were still dim, but overall, the visibility was restored a lot.
Chen Ling walked to the center of the venue and sat down. She placed the list of hundreds of treasures on the table and said calmly:
"Since this is a transaction during the dinner, we don't need to be too serious... Everyone, please take a seat."
Seeing this, several directors of the consortium breathed a sigh of relief, and each found a place to sit down in different places in the venue. Mu Chunsheng, in particular, silently wiped off his sweat with the corner of his clothes, and his racing heart finally returned to normal.
The accident just now almost completely destroyed the relationship between the five major consortiums and the special envoy. Now it is just a matter of trading some cheap small and medium-sized gold to repair the relationship and gain the friendship of the special envoy to a certain extent. This is undoubtedly the best solution. The result... at least, that's what the five directors think for the time being.
After the atmosphere became relaxed, Zong Wen chuckled and said, "Special envoy, how do you want to trade? Is it the same as an auction? I don't think it's better. You just draw a circle for me on the list. For all the treasures circled, we will spend The consortium has bought them all, just make friends.”
It's just some cheap small and medium-sized gold. How much money can you have if you die? Those big treasures don't dare to be mentioned, these gadgets are just trivial to them.
Mu Chunsheng gave him a cold look, his eyes were as sinister as if he wanted to kill someone, "If this is the case, we Beidou are willing to pay double."
"This method is a bit boring."
Chen Ling narrowed her eyes slightly and spoke slowly, "Since the auction in a few days will be held in the open... then this time, we might as well do it secretly."
"Secret shooting?"
“Each time it’s the turn of a lot, you write down the highest price you are willing to pay on a piece of paper, and then hand it over to me... I will show the one with the highest bid, and that will be the final transaction price, and the lot will also be will belong to the bidder.
However, during this process, I will not announce who is the final winner of the lot until the auction of all the lots is over. I will make a one-time transaction based on your bid.
Do you have any opinions on this method? "
This auction method is not new to the five major consortiums. Secret auctions are as common as open auctions, but they are relatively rare in recent years... But since Chen Ling proposed this plan, everyone has no objections. It is more convenient and faster than calling out the price of each item one by one during open auctions.
Otherwise, according to the open auction process, after these more than one hundred lots are auctioned, it will probably be dawn.
"Just do as the special envoy said." Pang Shan from the Paradise Consortium took the lead in nodding.
"How much money did we bring this time?" Mu Chunsheng asked his son.
"I didn't bring much in terms of banknotes. It's only two to three million dollars. The rest are just checks... The special envoy doesn't accept them either."
"It's too little. Ask someone to send another five million over." Mu Chunsheng's eyes swept across the other four major consortiums, and finally landed on Chen Ling in the center of the venue. "It was them who plotted against me, Beidou. This account, I must make it clear with them... No matter how much money we spend this time, we must establish a good relationship with the special envoy. Only by winning over the special envoy can we occupy an invincible position. "
"Yes, I'll send someone to get the money right now!"
"..."
The same conversation happened in every other consortium.
The battle lines of the five major consortiums have completely collapsed, and their conflicts have been aroused to the extreme. The opportunity to gain the friendship of the special envoy is right in front of them. Whoever can win this auction war will surpass the other four major consortiums and gain the support of the special envoy... …The value of this cannot be measured by millions.
Chen Ling had a panoramic view of this scene. The corners of his mouth under the mask raised slightly, and he opened the first lot unhurriedly.
"Lot No. 1, a golden bottle, has no starting price... Everyone, please bid."
At the same time, the directors of the five major consortiums set their sights on the first auction item, which was an extremely beautifully crafted gold wine bottle, about the size of a palm and a half, and still relatively large in size.
Mu Chunsheng narrowed his eyes, glanced secretly at the other directors, and then wrote a large number on the paper with a stroke of his pen.
After a brief hesitation, the other directors also wrote the amount on their own white paper, and their subordinates sent it to Chen Ling.
Chen Ling turned over the five pages in her hands with an expressionless expression...
200,000, 280,000, 300,000, 370,000, 500,000.
A good price... At least according to the original market price of gold, it is already good that this thing can be sold for 200,000. However, with the added value of "Special Envoy Friendship", the highest bid is actually 500,000, which is enough to sell for 200,000 yuan. More than twice the price.
If Chen Ling read it correctly, this should be the bid from the Beidou Consortium. It seems that this old guy Mu Chunsheng is bound to win this time...
pity,
For Chen Ling, this is not enough.
Five strings of numbers flashed in front of Chen Ling's eyes. The corners of his mouth under the mask raised. He gathered the five pieces of paper in his hand and rubbed it lightly on one of the papers. The amount on it suddenly changed. Then Chen Ling slowly took it out. Show it in front of everyone.
"The highest price in this auction...1.5 million."
A piece of paper with 1.5 million clearly written on it was exposed to everyone's view.
"What?!" Mu Chunsheng's pupils suddenly shrank, and several other directors of the consortium also widened their eyes in disbelief. This price was completely beyond their expectations.
At the same time, an invisible heart python, under the command of Chen Ling, had already settled on the shoulders of Pang Shan of the Paradise Consortium. As soon as he showed a hint of shock, he was swallowed up by the heart python!
Pang Shan suddenly felt a little empty in his heart. Looking at the amount of 1.5 million, he felt nothing in his heart and sat quietly where he was.
While the other directors of the consortium were shocked, the only quiet person immediately attracted the attention of others...
"Is it him? He actually paid such a high price?!"
Mu Chunsheng stared at Pang Shan's back, his teeth were almost broken...
You know, Paradise and Beidou are old enemies. Now that Pang Shan suddenly started bidding at such a high price, it means that he has spent a lot of money to snatch the special envoy from the Beidou consortium... This also means that what he is plotting is even bigger, maybe the entire Beidou Consortium?
If it can annex the entire Beidou Consortium, what is such a small amount of money?
"Damn it...I knew...he was the one behind it all!" Mu Chunsheng's breathing suddenly became rapid, "Okay, if you want to play, I will play with you!"
As the second lot began to be auctioned, Mu Chunsheng took the second piece of white paper and wrote a string of amounts on it without hesitation:
——1.55 million.
This scene was caught by Chen Ling in the center of the venue. Under the golden mask that seemed to have no emotion at all, he looked like a conspirator who had been planning for a long time, slowly showing a joking smile...
"Brothers and sisters, please watch carefully, this money-stealing trick... I will only perform it this time."
