Chapter 139
This blatant sexual hint made even Shen Ci blush, and she immediately glared at him with a shy face and pushed him away: "Hurry up and get busy!"
Shen Ci's reaction made Tang Song very satisfied. Let her not tease him all the time, he had already said he was a "fake gentleman."
After Tang Song left, the entry time soon arrived. Shen Ci followed the crowd into the spacious hall and found the corresponding seat according to the number card in her hand.
She thought that as an individual bidder with no background, her position would be relatively far back or in a corner. She didn't expect that there were 22 seats in a single row in the hall, and number 47 was in the third row. The seating arrangement had nothing to do with the bidder's identity, but was determined by the order of registration and receiving the number.
It was indeed a government official auction, even the seating arrangement was so fair and transparent.
However, it wasn't until other group representatives sat on both sides of Shen Ci that she realized she wasn't completely different from them; the color of the number card in her hand was different.
Groups participating in the auction held red number cards.
And she, as an individual bidder, held a blue number card.
She looked around subconsciously and found that she was the only one holding a blue number card, so she understood why everyone looked at her when she was waiting in the hall just now.
The reason was here.
She thought it was because she was too dazzling!
So embarrassed, hee hee.
After entering, people continued to walk into the hall and take their seats one after another. Before long, the whole scene was full. There were police officers in regular police uniforms maintaining the safety of the venue around the scene. Shen Ci looked around casually and didn't find Tang Song.
At ten o'clock, the auction started on time.
The auctioneer in a suit stepped onto the stage from one side, first patted the microphone gently to check the equipment, and after seeing that everything was normal, scanned the situation at the scene with a smile and said slowly: "Welcome everyone to today's auction. This auction is hosted by the Longcheng Yangming District Government in conjunction with the District Land Trading Center. The auctioned projects are all owned by the Longcheng Municipal Government."
"This auction is transparent throughout, adhering to the principles of openness, fairness, and justice, and will be carried out legally and compliantly under the witness of notaries from the Longcheng Yangming District Notary Office. Now I announce that today's auction officially begins!"
After the auctioneer finished speaking, the scene erupted in neat applause.
The next second, the lights at the scene dimmed, and the big screen in the hall lit up, starting to play aerial footage of a very large piece of land.
"What everyone is seeing now is the No. 1 land of today's auction. The land is located in Yangming District..."
The host was talking endlessly on it, introducing the various situations and advantages of the auctioned land. Although Shen Ci came with a purpose and didn't intend to attack other land she didn't understand, she still listened very carefully.
Soon the introduction video of the No. 1 land was finished playing. After the auctioneer announced the starting price and the starting bid, people at the scene began to bid one after another.
The atmosphere at the scene was basically no different from what Shen Ci expected. The competition between groups had always been fierce, and small and medium-sized companies were not qualified to participate in the competition for the ownership of high-quality land.
Large real estate leading groups like Jiang, Min, and Li could crush other small and medium-sized companies invisibly by just reporting a price.
But since the "China Anti-Monopoly Act" was introduced a few years ago, it ordered the prohibition of monopoly behavior of large groups in various industries, so in government project auctions, each group had a limit of two transaction quotas.
That is to say, there were six pieces of land participating in the auction today. Even the most powerful group could only bid for two pieces of land at most. Once the transaction limit was reached, it was equivalent to withdrawing from the remaining auction links in advance.
So in the early stage of the auction, major groups would hold meetings to discuss and select the land with the highest priority, and then discuss the alternative land to settle for the second best, and even have a third set of plans.
In short, they must have a foolproof plan so as not to return empty-handed in an auction.
For the first five pieces of land, Jiang and Min each took one, and the rest were picked up by other groups, because everyone knew that the highlight of today was the last piece of land, "Yuanjing Fashion Industrial Park."
These large groups would inevitably leave the last transaction quota for this piece of land, which would be another bloodless slaughter.
The representative of Jiang seemed to be watching, constantly saying something to the headset in his ear.
This link was actually just to reflect professionalism. In fact, everyone's investigation and research on this piece of land in the early stage were much more detailed and in-depth than in the video, and even Shen Ci did a lot of homework for this.
After the video finished playing, Shen Ci felt inexplicably excited and agitated in her heart.
The auctioneer paused before saying: "The starting price for the No. 6 land is 88,000 yuan, the starting bid is 2,000 yuan, the auction begins!"
As soon as the voice fell, a company representative raised the card and quoted: "90,000"!
"92,000"!
"98,000"!
"100,000"!
Generally speaking, the starting price of the land is far lower than the actual price of the land. The purpose of the auction is to bid, from low to high and then to premium transaction, which is a process of game.
But the tricky thing is that the "Auction Law" clearly stipulates that if the final transaction price is lower than the normal market price of the auction item, the auction party has the right to terminate the auction.
So even if the bidder is smarter, they cannot bid for any auction items at the auction at a price lower than the market price.
The bid soon reached "120,000"!
Shen Ci hadn't raised the card yet, or it could be said that she hadn't raised the number card in her hand from beginning to end, which caused the side-glances of the people beside her who were already very curious about her.
In the eyes of others, Shen Ci was more like a little white rabbit who broke into this place, completely unaware of what was happening at the scene.
"150,000"!
Until the representative of the Jiang Corporation suddenly raised the card and called the bid from "120,000" to "150,000," causing an uproar.
As expected of Jiang, who would add 2,000 by 2,000, wasting time!
As a result, before the uproar had faded, the Li representative, who had been waiting and watching, followed up and raised the card: "160,000"!
Min was not to be outdone and followed up with a quote: "170,000"!
Bidding in "ten thousand" units was enough to make people tongue-tied just listening to it. The strong strength of these large groups was simply jaw-dropping.
The three groups were calm on the surface but had swords and shadows in secret, and they seemed to have the determination to win this piece of land.
But coincidentally, the upper limit of the estimated transaction price given by the three groups for this piece of land was "200,000 yuan"!
Seeing that the bid was about to reach the upper limit, the palms of several representatives were inevitably a bit wet. They were actually very nervous!
However, just when everyone's attention was on the representatives of these three groups, a soft and gentle voice suddenly sounded: "200,000!"
The only blue number card at the scene was slowly raised, marked with: "No. 47"!
I have sinned, I apologize, I plead guilty!
Today, procrastination struck, and I didn't open the computer until eight o'clock in the evening.
Punish me, please whip me, masters!
