Gao Qiangqi said, "Then you were right to provoke me."
In a fit of anger, he snapped.
After the final hammer blow, Gao Qiangqi did not raise the price further.
Why not keep raising the price?
The main issue is that the price of 1.15 million has far exceeded the price of the bluefin tuna itself; it's no exaggeration to say that it's more than double the original price.
He also discussed it with Wu An.
One million one hundred thousand is their target price.
If it exceeds that, then it's a profit.
Secondly, they weren't sure how determined Jinghe was to please Xiao Rizi.
Bluefin tuna was the grand finale, and unsurprisingly, it became the top fish of the auction.
Under normal circumstances.
The owner of the first fish will go on stage to receive the award.
The auctioneer left without even saying a word.
This surprised Izuru.
Is the owner of this bluefin tuna really that low-key?
That shouldn't be the case.
This is a highlight moment for anyone. Some people who have caught a big fish can't wait to show it off to everyone. Why wouldn't they want to show their face at this moment?
Something's strange.
Jing He frowned, sensing something was amiss. Looking back, he saw Wu An and his group celebrating the New Year with great joy, with one of the losers even more exaggeratedly gesturing wildly.
Why are you so happy even though you didn't get the bluefin tuna?
What a load of rubbish!
Izuru grumbled and cursed, for some reason, he didn't feel the joy of successfully bidding on the bluefin tuna.
Instead, I felt a little down.
When his subordinates came over, he arranged for them to pay and receive the goods. After finishing, he felt more and more uneasy. The catch at this auction was actually just a few companies pooling their resources. If he had just inquired, he would have been able to find out the details.
Jinghe found a person in charge at the market he knew and asked who the owner of the first fish was.
"Boss Jing, what's wrong?"
"Nothing much. Bluefin is the leader, so why doesn't the owner go up and speak?"
"They just want to keep a low profile."
"Don't try to fool me. I came to you to find out who this person is."
"Did you notice the handsome guy next to Boss Gao today?"
Jinghe nodded.
"The bluefin tuna belongs to that handsome guy." The person in charge paused and continued, "Not only bluefin, but many of the best items at today's auction came from his ship."
"She's incredibly lucky at such a young age."
"Including the bluefin you bought, this kid's conservative income from a single boat's catch is over three million."
Izuru's head was buzzing.
He immediately realized that Gao Qiangqi and Wu An weren't actually bidding for the bluefin tuna; they were simply trying to drive up the price.
To put it more bluntly.
They're just trying to scam him!
He angrily cursed, "Damn it, you tricked me again!"
The person in charge was taken aback: "Again?"
"So that's why Boss Gao raised prices today, you two have a grudge against each other."
"Boss Jing, let me give you a piece of advice. Boss Gao is incredibly powerful. In this industry, even my elder brother has to give him some leeway. You're in business, and making enemies with Boss Gao won't do you any good."
Jinghe gritted his teeth and shouted, "So he tricked me, and I have to bow down to him?"
The man smiled and said, "Fine, never mind."
"Hey, is everything handed over properly?"
"Okay, I'll take a look."
After saying that, the man made an excuse and left.
Jing He came out of the office, his eyes scanning the room angrily. There was no trace of Gao Qiangqi and Wu An's group.
He was so angry that he slammed his fist on the railing.
Inside the house.
His friend scoffed, "That's just incompetent rage."
...
Outside the seafood market.
Gao Qiangqi put down his phone and said, "President Li just sent a message that the payment will arrive tomorrow."
Wu An nodded.
He is at ease in this regard.
Gao Qiangqi asked, "Do you want to have some fun in the city?"
Wu An nodded: "You'll have to lend me a car later."
Gao Qiangqi said, "Don't go to so much trouble. I brought a minivan, which is just the right size to seat all of you."
"I'll drive your car away later."
"I'm not in a hurry to use the car, I'm fine with staying a few more days."
"Thanks, Brother Qiang."
"Alright, no need for thanks. Since your whole family is here, I won't invite you to go drinking." Gao Qiangqi said, making sure to say goodbye to everyone as he left.
We arrived at the parking lot.
Found the minivan.
Toyota Alphard.
Everyone got on the bus. Aqing touched it from the left and right, and Wu An couldn't help but take a few more glances. He had to admit, it was indeed a luxurious business van.
Gu Anran was still driving when she asked, "Where are we going?"
"Go to the department store."
"good."
Headed straight to the department store.
Once we arrived, there was nothing else to do but shop.
The first floor mainly sells luxury goods.
Aqing was drawn to the sales outlets for designer clothes, bags, jewelry, watches, gold, and even new energy vehicles. He currently had several hundred thousand yuan in his account and was planning to buy a car.
Wu An told him to leave: "Now is not the time to get involved in new energy sources."
"Learn to drive first."
"I'll take you to pick up the car another day."
Ah Qing happily followed along to buy gold, saying as they walked, "Brother, buying gold won't cost much. You know, I have so much money now, it's not worth keeping it in the bank. How about I buy a house instead?"
Wu An shook his head: "I won't buy it."
Buying a house is a good thing, but you have to consider the location.
Not all houses appreciate in value; some may even become unsellable. Many properties in this area will become ghost towns in the future, with very few people living in each community.
The most outrageous ones are the so-called sea view properties; once you buy them, you're stuck with them for nothing.
The only pity was that he left his hometown too early. Although he knew about the situation, he didn't know much about the specific housing development, so he directly rejected Aqing's decision.
Buying a house and getting burned is bad enough, but the real problem is the stress.
You might as well buy gold.
Before his rebirth in his previous life, the price of gold was soaring, and many of the trending topics online were about gold. He wanted to buy some at the time, but unfortunately, he didn't have enough spare money.
Now we have it.
Naturally, one should acquire a large quantity.
Not to mention the appreciation in value, having gleaming gold nuggets at home can bring joy to anyone.
Surely no one dislikes gold, right?
Gold is only a little over 300 yuan now. In the future, it will likely double, if not more. This is much more cost-effective than buying a house. The housing prices here are not like those in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, so the rise is not as outrageous, but the fall is quite dramatic.
The housing prices have been driven up by speculation.
With no one willing to buy, it's hard for the price not to fall.
Ah Qing said "Oh," not dwelling on the house purchase, and looked at the dazzling array of gold jewelry, asking, "Brother, how much are they for?"
Wu An glanced at the pretty saleswoman and said casually, "You sold about two jin."
The sales assistant raised her almond-shaped eyes, which were full of disbelief. Wait a minute, did I hear that right? Who buys gold by the kilogram?
Aqing nodded: "Sister, give me two jin."
Salesperson: "..."
Are these two guys here to mess with her?
