Chapter 448 Raising the Price
The auctioneer introduced: "Next up are two abalone pearls."
He gave a vivid introduction to abalone pearls.
Two pearls were displayed on the big screen.
"The deep blue teardrop-shaped pearl is just over 15mm, with the perfect weight and symmetrical shape. It is the best of the best."
"Another shark tooth-shaped pearl, measuring 17mm, is even rarer!"
"This is the most beautiful treasure bestowed by God. It absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the ocean. It is a treasure that absolutely cannot be missed."
After his introduction, the participants who originally knew nothing about abalone pearls all became very interested in the two abalone pearls.
Not to mention those who came for the pearls.
For example, Liu Ming.
He already revealed an expression that showed he was determined to get these two pearls, and he occasionally looked at his competitors with obvious sparks in his eyes.
Ye Qing looked at it and was secretly happy.
Let’s fight.
Grab it.
He reaped the benefits.
"The bidding is now open. The starting price is 150,000 yuan, and each bid must be no less than 5,000 yuan."
As the auctioneer's words fell, many people became a little agitated.
Ye Qing was looking forward to their fight.
However.
The result surprised him, no one made a bid.
He was a little panicked.
Liu Yudie noticed the change in his expression and said with a smile, "Don't worry."
"If you look closely, you'll see many people looking around."
"They all want to take the pearl."
Ye Qing also noticed it and said, "I saw it. If that's the case, why don't they bid?"
Liu Yudie said: "Everyone wants to pick up a bargain."
Finished.
She held up her hand: "16."
The result is the next moment.
"17."
“18.”
“20.”
In an instant, many people made offers, and the price spiraled upward, reaching 250,000 in the blink of an eye!
Ye Qing was overjoyed. This price was beyond his expectations.
He secretly thanked his luck that he didn't sell it to a jewelry store or a pawn shop. These two places were too treacherous and treacherous, and they treated him like a fool and tricked him.
In other words, any individual customer like him who goes to sell things will be cheated like this.
It's also an unspoken rule in the industry.
No matter which store you go to, the prices are not too high.
Prices are still rising.
Ye Qing looked at Liu Ming. This big guy hadn't made a bid yet.
Two minutes later.
The price reached 310,000.
At this price, there were only two people left bidding.
Liu Ming finally made a move: "350,000!"
The two bidders looked at Liu Ming and shook their heads helplessly. This price was beyond their expectations.
"175,000 each!"
"Yes, yes."
"As expected of your father, he's so domineering!"
Ye Qing was very happy. He was quite satisfied with the deal at this price. He felt that he had gotten a good deal and was still ungrateful. He complained in his heart that Liu Ming was a complainer.
Liu Yudie suddenly pulled him up.
Ye Qing didn't understand what was going on, so he followed her out and hid behind the screen. The place where they were was occupied by a staff member.
The staff member raised his hand and said, "360,000."
Ye Qing glared: "What are you doing?"
Liu Yudie blinked: "Raise the price."
Ye Qing asked, "That's your dad, how strong are you going to make him?"
Liu Yudie chuckled: "If it weren't for my dad, I wouldn't raise the price."
"These days, who doesn't cheat their father?"
"Just wait for your two pearls to be sold at a sky-high price."
Ye Qing gave a thumbs up.
It really made everyone laugh.
If Liu Ming knew about this, he would be so angry that he would die.
He didn't stop Liu Yudie.
Although it is a bit immoral to make money in this way, why should we act as moral role models when we are making money?
Liu Ming thought he had gotten the job, but someone raised the price. He turned around and saw that it was a staff member. He was not surprised, as this kind of substitute photography was very common.
"380,000."
He immediately raised the price.
Liu Yudie gave instructions to the staff.
Staff: “400,000.”
Everyone was shocked. This price actually exceeded the value of the two pearls themselves. Unless they were useful, it would be a sure loss to invest in them.
Liu Ming gritted his teeth and said, "410,000."
He didn't want to sleep in the office all the time, so he had to raise the price.
The two people raised the price.
The price quickly reached 500,000.
The auctioneer began to bang the gavel.
It was not until the third hammer was about to fall that Liu Ming bid 510,000.
In secret.
Liu Yudie would not be fooled by him and immediately raised the price by ten thousand.
Liu Ming could hardly hold it any longer.
He never thought that someone would play Tai Chi with him. After all, apart from his family, no one knew his determination to get the pearl, and no one would dare to raise the price so much.
Liu Ming raised the price again, this time by only 5,000 yuan.
Liu Yudie added another ten thousand, then shrugged: "That's about it."
"Are you satisfied?"
Ye Qing nodded repeatedly and said, "I'm satisfied, very satisfied. This time it's all thanks to you."
"You must never let your father know about this."
Liu Yudie said: "Then you have to keep it a secret for me."
Ye Qing nodded: "You are helping me."
"I certainly can't cheat you."
"Besides, you know that your father and I have nothing to discuss."
Liu Yudie was secretly delighted.
This time, he not only helped Ye Qing vent his anger, but also shared a secret between them.
Kill two birds with one stone.
Just as Liu Ming was about to make his bid, another person suddenly made an offer: "530,000."
Liu Ming turned his head and was stunned when he saw the person who made the bid. It was actually Yi Shaomei.
The pearls he had sold before were sold by Yi Shaomei's mother.
Liu Ming couldn't help but get furious.
Are you addicted to cheating him? After cheating your mother, you cheat your daughter now?
It won’t be over until his family is destroyed, right?
Liu Ming raised his hand: "600,000!"
He swore in his heart that this time he would get the pearl no matter what.
Yi Shaomei looked at the staff member. Liu Ming didn't know, but she had been paying attention and knew that the staff member was bidding on behalf of Liu Yudie.
She was very curious, why did Liu Yudie hide and bargain with Liu Ming?
What tricks are these father and daughter playing?
But it doesn’t matter. She doesn’t want to compete with Liu Yudie and Liu Ming. She just wants to raise the price and make Liu Yudie and her daughter bleed.
Yi Shaomei waited for a while, and when Liu Yudie didn't bid, she raised her hand: "610,000."
All the participants present were shocked.
Increase the price?
This is malicious competition!
The auctioneer was grinning from ear to ear. He was paid a commission, and the higher the auction price of the exhibit, the more money he would get.
In secret.
Liu Yudie was stunned for a moment, then suddenly sneered: "This is disgusting to me."
"Yi Shaomei knew I was the one auctioning, so she was deliberately raising the price."
“This actually helped us.”
Ye Qing smiled from ear to ear: "I'll have to thank her later."
soon.
With Yi Shaomei's bid, Liu Ming finally bought the two pearls for 710,000 yuan.
"710,000, the third time."
"Bang."
The auction hammer struck the final blow.
Liu Ming bought the pearl, but he was not happy because his heart was bleeding. Even a fool could tell that he had wasted a lot of money by buying the pearl at this price.
Yi Shaomei was also very happy. Although she failed to make Liu Yudie spend a lot of money to buy the pearl, the pearl did not fall into Liu Yudie's hands in the end.
I don’t know whether Liu Yudie made a loss or not, but she made a profit anyway.
