Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

At this moment, the center of the auction venue lit up.

In the convention and exhibition center, there is a large table filled with raw jade stones.

Under the illumination of the light, it looks particularly dazzling.

Everything placed on the table is "half gambling material".

As the name suggests, a relatively large opening has been cut into the original stone, or it can be cut in half directly from the middle.

A distinct green color has appeared at the opening.

This kind of wool definitely has jade in it.

It's just that the planting water is difficult to evaluate, so just now everyone gathered at the counter to check the planting water inside.

Lin Ran squinted his eyes for a while in the distance and saw that they were not very uniform. The three stones closest to him were all filled with ice jade, and the quality was relatively average, belonging to the middle to lower grade.

This kind of jadeite is not worth much at all, and Chen Cheng won't even take a look at it.

The auction here seems very casual. The auctioneer starts to announce the bidding according to the number. Anyone who wants to participate in the auction can go up and check the stones. Of course, everyone only has 20 seconds.

They would design it this way to highlight the urgency and prevent others from leaving the house in front of the counter.

Here, Lin Ran actually picked up the previous stone.

Because there were so many bidders, the official felt that there was no winner at the moment, so they took him to the auction venue.

No wonder there are so many people in the auction venue. Looking at their clothes, they are basically big bosses in the capital. Several jewelers that Lin Ran went to Ruili with before are also among them, but they are relatively far away.

He was still fawning over himself before, but now he no longer recognizes himself in just half a year.

But it's no wonder that Lin Ran was like a meteor that passed by in the jewelry circle in the capital. As for the other industries he was involved in, these people had no intersection with him, and they naturally forgot about them after a while.

The wool they were interested in was very popular, and the auction reserve price was [-] yuan.

Seeing the people around him standing up one after another, ready to step forward to continue checking, he knew that this competition would definitely be very fierce.

Lin Ran could actually understand them. Those who could enter the auction venue were obviously industry leaders and did not care about small amounts of money.

For jewelers, it is very difficult to make money in the current low-end market, because most poor people do not care about the value of jewelry. They will only give away jewelry on occasions such as weddings or birthday banquets. They usually buy the most jewelry. It is also gold and silver jewelry. This kind of profit is not high in the jewelry industry.

The real huge profits still come from gems, especially diamonds and jade.

Mid-grade jade is not the purpose of these businessmen at all.

They just want to buy ice jade, preferably imperial green. The price doesn't matter. After all, they can raise the price.

The higher the price they get, the more expensive they will be to sell it. This is the law of the market.

After Jiang Yan's repeated persuasion, Chen Li did become interested in this stone.

However, she never expressed her stance and seemed a little hesitant.

In fact, she could understand what Jiang Yan said. If it was ice jade, it would be worth buying it at a high price.

But what she worried about was that the name was not true, because many of Jiang Yan's statements were based on his own guesses, and the modal words were basically "I think" and "I think."

If he hadn't opened a jewelry store himself, Chen Li would have thought Jiang Yan was an unlearned liar.

The auction of jade rough stones has officially begun.

The starting price is [-]!

The price of [-] is already very low compared to its own value.

Someone immediately doubled the price on the spot.

"Twenty thousand!"

Lin Ran will come to the auction, but not because he thinks there will be anything good at the auction, but because he wants to see what is special about the rough stone auction?

It is indeed a little different from their regular auctions. No one here is giving out name tags, they are just asked to raise their hands, which can be said to be quite down-to-earth.

This is a strict test for the auctioneer. He must remember who called the price, otherwise the other party will not acknowledge the price after the auction is over, and even the deposit will not be deducted.

But it's clear that the auctioneer isn't worried about this at all.

He picked up the hammer and was about to knock it down.

Another fat man stood up and shouted: "Thirty thousand."

Even though Yang Jianlong is rich, this is the first time he has seen this auction model.

In the auctions I participated in before, everyone wanted to make as much profit as possible, and the price was also increased by the lowest markup.

These people are good, as if they are afraid of being looked down upon. Every price increase is in units of tens of thousands. How can they be described by a "rich man"? It is simply crazy.

"Aunt Chen, if you think it's okay, I'll raise the price." Jiang Yan didn't expect this group of people to be so crazy. If he really had to pay alone, he really wouldn't be able to bear it.

Chen Li was silent for a while and was about to nod.

But Ke Yu pulled Chen Li and said, "Mom, I think it's better to forget it."

At this time, Jiang Yan looked at Ke Yu with doubts in his eyes.

"why?"

Chen Li also said: "Xiaoyu, what Jiang Yan said makes sense. It is a bit expensive, but if it is really ice jade, we will still make a profit."

Hearing Chen Li's statement, Jiang Yan smiled knowingly, raised his hand and shouted: "Forty thousand!"

"Good guy." Lin Ran took a breath of air.

These people really don't show off at all, they just plan to fight to the death.

The auction had just begun, and the price of ten thousand stones had already turned over to forty thousand.

Lin Ran felt that he had missed out on the spending power of these people. He originally thought that he would only need over [-] yuan to survive.

Now he could feel that in the eyes of these people, what was in front of them was not the original stone, but the real ice jade.

No more pretense.

After the price was raised to 4, no one immediately called for a price.

They were also frightened by the price. Even if they were betting on stones, the traffic would not be so fierce.

Some people looked at Jiang Yan with unfriendly eyes.

Jiang Yan did look back proudly, mainly to look at Lin Ran.

The quotation of [-] yuan is equivalent to showing one's financial resources.

It was definitely not a price that a poor boy like Lin Ran could afford.

Lin Ran had no interest in participating in the auction, he was just joining in the fun.

Seeing Jiang Yan looking at him, he responded with an enigmatic smile.

"You're still pretending." Jiang Yan sneered, and then he opened the ice seed, which made Ke Yu look at him with admiration.

Seeing no one bid, the auctioneer raised his hammer.

You can tell from his actions that the auctioneer is a professional, at least one who has studied in a regular auction house.

"Forty thousand once, forty thousand..."

Finally, a customer couldn't hold it any longer and shouted, "Forty-two thousand!"

It seems that the price is finally approaching the upper limit, and no one can continue to increase the price by ten thousand or ten thousand.
