Chapter 503: No business without treachery(1/2)
"One hundred and fifty-five million!"
"One hundred and sixty million!"
"One hundred and sixty-five million!"
"One hundred and seventy million!"
…
"One hundred and ninety million!"
"Two hundred million!!"
Just as everyone was raising their bids, a loud and powerful voice sounded.
That tone was like making a decision with determination.
When I heard someone bidding 200 million, the atmosphere immediately became quiet.
Because the value of the porcelain bowl is only about 200 million.
If the price continues to increase, it will be worth it.
After a while, the auctioneer said:
"Okay, technician No. 88... No, guest No. 88 bids 200 million, is there anyone who wants to increase the price?"
"If not, I will start counting down."
"Two hundred million once."
"Two hundred million twice."
"Two hundred million..."
Suddenly, a loud voice echoed throughout the audience.
"Two hundred and one million!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Damn it? Who is so awesome?
Not only did they dare to increase the price, but they only increased it by a mere one million.
Is this a joke sent by the monkey?
When everyone looked at the sound, they found that the guest was holding a sign with the number 69 in his hand.
Because he was wearing a mask and hat, he couldn't see his face clearly.
However, at this moment, Zhang Hao looked surprised.
This voice was all too familiar to him.
That was such a loud voice.
You can tell with your own feet that he is deliberately driving up the price.
And it must have been Grandpa Zhao who asked him to do this.
Grass!
This behavior is so shameful.
Isn't this obviously a scam?
Besides, the price of the porcelain bowl has been increased to 200 million. What if others don’t increase the price? Then it’s all over.
Just when Zhang Hao was about to tell Grandpa Zhao about this, the auctioneer's voice sounded.
"Everyone, although one million is very small, according to the rules, the minimum price increase is one million each time, so it is reasonable."
"Now guest No. 69 bids 201 million, will anyone increase the price? If not..."
"Two hundred and ten million!"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a firm voice.
The one who increased the price was guest No. 88.
But the next second.
"Two hundred and eleven million!"
When they heard that guest No. 69 had increased the price again, and only increased by one million, people couldn't help but start complaining.
"F*ck~ If you add a million more, can you please give me some facial expressions?"
"That's right, even if you don't add 10 million, you can add 5 million."
"Although it is in compliance with the rules, it is unreasonable."
"I thought I was shameless enough, but I didn't expect there was someone more shameless than me. Whose general is this?"
"I can't stand it anymore, please allow me to challenge him!"
Seeing No. 69 aroused public anger, and said weakly:
"Don't be angry, everyone. I really want to buy it, but I don't have enough financial strength."
"Besides, I'm just increasing the price normally. Is this wrong?"
At this time, the auctioneer said:
"Please keep quiet."
"This auction will be fair and just, and everyone has the right to participate in the auction, although..."
"Two hundred and thirty million!"
Guest No. 88 interrupted again, this time directly increasing the price by 20 million.
When everyone thought that guest No. 69 was going to increase the price by another million, there was no sound.
Mudd, this kid finally calmed down.
The auctioneer smiled and said: "Okay, guest No. 88 bids 230 million, is there any increase in price?"
"If not, I'll start counting down."
"Two hundred and thirty million times."
"Two hundred and thirty million times."
"Two hundred and thirty million three times."
"make a deal!"
Snapped!
The auctioneer made the final decision.
"Congratulations to guest No. 88 for successfully winning this unique treasure. Let's start bidding for the next one."
At this time, Grandpa Zhao showed a bright smile.
He asked Zhang Hao very proudly: "Xiao Zhang, how much do you think this porcelain bowl cost?"
Zhang Hao frowned slightly: "I don't know, but if I guessed correctly, it was you who asked Da Zhuang to maliciously raise the price."
Grandpa Zhao smiled and said: "Congratulations, you guessed it right."
Zhang Hao said with some displeasure: "Aren't you trying to trick people? It's too much."
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Zhao couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh my god, how can this be called too much?"
"I only asked Da Zhuang to raise the price. He is considered conscientious in the industry."
"You don't know that out of a hundred guests at other auctions, ten of them maliciously raise the price. That's excessive."
Zhang Hao couldn't help but spit out the fragrance: "Damn it, what a fucking idiot."
Grandpa Zhao said with a smile: "How can you make money if you don't care?"
"As the saying goes, there is no business without evil. If everyone is as kind as you, there will be no business."
Uh~
Zhang Hao was stunned and asked: "What if after raising the price, others suddenly stop raising the price?"
Grandpa Zhao: "Let's go to the auction next time. Antiques are different from other things. Sooner or later, someone will buy them."
Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel ashamed: "Co-author, you treat people as big grievances."
"If others knew about it, wouldn't it affect the credibility of the antique store?"
"If it gets a bad reputation, will anyone come to another auction?"
"Your behavior is undoubtedly shooting yourself in the foot."
Grandpa Zhao laughed and said: "Haha, you brat, you think everyone is stupid."
