MTL - A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village-Chapter 648 scramble
"Thank you very much for coming to participate in this auction, well, let's not talk nonsense. The auction officially starts!" The beautiful host said loudly on the top.
The first lot was presented by the staff here. At first glance, Nanye Xiuyi is a rare jade, and it is definitely the kind of invaluable existence.
But he is not very interested in this jade, he intends to see what else is worth his shot.
Pieces of the lot were presented, and each piece was a rare and priceless treasure in the world.
At this time, Minano Shuichi discovered that the four major families and some people were not interested in these priceless treasures at all. Some of them were closing their eyes, and some were discussing something in a low voice.
"Are these people waiting for some kind of bloodstone?" Minano Shuichi frowned slightly, he really hasn't heard of bloodstone. It made him itching to know what it was.
"Master Samurai, why does this Heavenly Saint Auction House have bloodstones? They dare to conduct auctions so blatantly, aren't they afraid of things?" Mitsui Ikeda asked in a low voice. He had only received news from above asking him to pay attention to Tiansheng Auction House, and once there was any treasure to be auctioned, he would go up at the same time. This time bloodstone appeared, and he immediately reported it after receiving the news.
"Tiansheng Auction House is not simple, and the forces behind it are not worse than ours. In the future, you should not provoke their people." Mitsui Juro said coldly.
"Yes yes yes!" Mitsui Ikeda touched the sweat on his forehead.
Soon, in the second half of the auction, Minano Shuichi took a few items that he liked, one was a pair of bracelets, the other was a calligraphy and painting. He likes both. The bracelet belongs to the top jade, and the calligraphy and painting are all extinct calligraphy and painting, which are very worthy of collection.
"This auction is coming to an end, and now is the last lot!" At this time, the beautiful host said to the more than 30 bidders present.
"The main event is coming!" Minami Xiu focused his attention on the host.
In general auctions, the last few pieces of the lot are often seen at the finale. Now he has not seen the so-called blood stone on the stage, he just wants to see what the blood stone is that will make the four major financial groups at the helm People are present in person to participate in the auction.
He soon saw that the guys from the four major consortiums instantly lifted their spirits when they heard that the last lot was on the scene. They have not conducted any auctions in the dozens of auctions before. It seems that their four major financial groups and two major groups must have come for that bloodstone this time.
At this time, a beautiful woman walked onto the stage with a golden tray.
On the gold tray is a thumb-sized dark red oval stone.
Yes, it looks like a dark red oval stone!
"The last item to be auctioned is the blood stone. I can't say much about its value. The starting price is 100 million US dollars, and the increase is not less than 5 million US dollars each time! Start the auction." The beautiful host said loudly.
When these words came out, most of the people present were shocked, even Minami Shuichi was shocked!
"Nani? What kind of stone is this stone with a starting price of $100 million? I heard right!"
"Hey...what is this, I have never heard of bloodstone, why is it so expensive. The host beauty is really, don't explain its origin, and don't say why its value is so high. "
"I don't see anything priceless about this stone. It's just like an ordinary stone, but it's dark red."
"Fools will bid for auctions, right? Another 100 million dollars! Three thousand dollars is too much for me."
Anyway, most of the thirty-odd people present were shocked, shocked by this piece of bloodstone.
"Even a diamond the size of a thumb isn't worth 100 million dollars, right?" Minamino Shuichi smacked his lips.
What's more, it's just a stone, although it looks a little different from ordinary stones.
But he didn't see any difference in the stone either.
One hundred million dollars!
Although there will be more than 100 million US dollars of antiques and antiques decades later, but now in 1960, he has never heard of 100 million US dollars of antiques. Antiques worth millions of dollars are usually among the top five in the world.
Do you know what the $100 million this year means?
"The people from the four major consortiums and the two major groups came here today for this dark red stone?" Minano Shuichi frowned slightly, and the more he looked, the more tricky he felt. First of all, the value of this stone is so outrageous that it is a trick.
You must know that 100 million US dollars is the starting price. When it is auctioned, it cannot be taken away without a few hundred million US dollars.
"Either they are all fools, or Tiansheng Auction House is a fool, or this blood stone must have some unparalleled value." Nanye Xiuyi thought secretly.
After some observation, he found that most of the more than 30 bigwigs who came to participate in the auction were surprised when they heard the bloodstone with a reserve price of 100 million US dollars, including him. That is to say, they don't know the true value and secret of bloodstone, and they don't know why it is so valuable!
However, he noticed that the four major financial groups, the two major groups, and three or four people who did not belong to the six major families were all old gods, and they all started to put the last auction item on the market. Keep your eyes on the podium!
In other words, their six major families and the few scattered people came today for this bloodstone.
"I'm so curious!"
"Mitsui Ikeda, this time, no matter how much money you spend, you will get this bloodstone! You know the importance of bloodstones to our family." Mitsui Ikeda said to Mitsui Ikeda.
"Samurai-sama, I will do my best." Mitsui Ikeda said in a precarious seat.
Sure enough, the auction started!
The first one who spoke was Sumitomo Murakami, "One hundred and fifty million dollars!"
"Mr. No. 3, 150 million!" The host beauty shouted the number.
"One hundred and ten million!" A tall and thin old man raised the sign in his hand.
This tall and thin old man, Minano Shuichi, doesn't know him. He doesn't seem to be a member of the four major consortiums or the two major groups.
"One hundred and fifty million!" At this time, Mitsubishi Taro raised the sign.
The sudden increase of 40 million US dollars made many people exclaimed.
This is US dollars, not Japanese yen!
"150 million, 150 million!" The host beauty shouted excitedly.
"Crazy, crazy!"
"Are they sure they are not stupid? A broken stone is more than 100 million US dollars!"
"My God, I really don't know what to say. Are the people of the four major financial groups stupid?"
"People are stupid and have a lot of money!"
The surrounding melon eaters were all dumbfounded. Anyway, they were all dazed by this finale, and they had no idea what these lunatics were doing. There is nowhere to spend money for them.
"One hundred and sixty million!" At this time, Mitsui Ikeda raised his placard.
"One hundred and seventy million!"
"200 million!"
"210 million!"
In just a few minutes, the auction price has exceeded the $200 million mark.
"250 million!" Miwa Kutaro said for the first time.
has risen by 40 million US dollars again, and now it has reached a height of 250 million US dollars.
"These two declining families are so rich now? You haven't suppressed them enough in the past few years. You know that funds are very important to us and can be exchanged for a lot of resources." The high-profile bidding made him frown slightly.
Being named and criticized by his own samurai adults made Mitsui Ikeda a little scared, and he was afraid that the other party would punish him. In fact, I don't blame him. The Sanhe Group already has strength, although the Mitsui Consortium has always had the effect of suppressing the opponent. But others are not vegetarian.
He is very aggrieved. Especially in recent years, the rapid development of Sanhe Group has made him feel powerless.
"Three hundred million dollars!" At this time, a more high-profile guy appeared, and that was the sign raised by Ito Ichiro from the Daiichi Persuasion Group.
Anyway, in Ito Ichiro's eyes, even if he can't get this bloodstone on his side, he should try his best to raise the price to trap the four major consortiums!
"Hey... it's over $300 million!"
"Is this true? Did I not dream? You pinch me."
"Ow~ it's true, it hurts to death."
"too crazy."
A group of melon eaters were shocked beyond measure when they saw this situation. Although they are all super rich, each of them is worth no less than 1 billion US dollars. But compared to the current bidding price of 300 million U.S. dollars for a thing, it is simply insignificant.
"350 million!" Fuji Kojiro said.
As time goes by, the auction price is also rising, but these people seem to have no intention of stopping.
"Five hundred and fifty million!"
"570 million!"
"Six hundred million dollars!"
"710 million!"
"My God, $700 million!"
At this moment, Hideyoshi Minano's jaw dropped when he saw this place, Nima, 700 million dollars, the value of an oil field! A thumb-sized rock is worth the same as an oil field? It's ridiculous.
"They are still in a position to win this stone, and everyone has no intention of letting it go. It seems that this stone really has a big secret, I have to figure it out." Nanye Xiuyi secretly said to himself.
Now the price has climbed to 800 million US dollars. This price has made many super rich people present doubt their life. A broken stone is equal to most of their worth.
"Crazy, everyone is crazy, they broke their heads." Minano Shuichi was very emotional when he saw this situation.
It was the first time he saw such a crazy auction.
Even if it is the four major consortiums, it is difficult to bid for a thing with 780 million US dollars all at once. Anyway, Minano Shuichi felt that if the grand occasion this time was announced, it would definitely scare a group of people to death.
