My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife-Chapter 1035 - 1034: Auction (Part 1)

The auction has begun.

The location of the first piece of land is excellent, right next to the city river, with a beautiful view, and has direct access to the university town and the highway exit, which is very convenient.

Lot number one covers eighty-two acres, and its prime location sets the starting bid at five million per acre, which means the opening price for lot number one is four hundred and ten million!

Each bid must not be lower than the price per acre, which is five million.

"Five billion!" Wu Shaokang directly raised the sign and coldly said, "Our Wu family will take this as our opening victory!"

Hearing this, many people put down their thoughts of raising the sign.

But there were still people who followed the price.

"Five billion and ten million!"

"Five billion and twenty million!"

"Five billion and thirty million!"

"Five billion and forty million!"

"Five billion and eighty million!"

Although the Wu family is large and influential, it doesn’t mean that the Wu family is the only powerful family in Ancheng; there are others.

Those who dare to bid must belong to other families.

After this round of bidding, the price has already been raised to five billion and eighty million, and everyone has completely forgotten the minimum increment of five million, now all bids are at least ten million.

"Six billion!" Bai Mingxuan couldn’t help but raise the sign and shout.

"Seven billion!" Wu Shaokang was relentless, directly raising the bid by a billion!

"Seven billion and fifty million!" Bai Mingxuan glared at Wu Shaokang with provocation.

Wu Shaokang sneered, "Even fifty million, nine billion!"

Raising the bid by a billion and a half, the crowd was in an uproar.

Many people’s limits are ten billion because exceeding ten billion is unbearable for many. Moreover, if the houses are built later, the average price won’t be low, creating immense pressure.

Once it exceeds ten billion, basically no one else will bid again.

"Ten billion!" Bai Mingxuan shouted the bottom line number for many people.

Wu Shaokang hesitated, as ten billion is a threshold. It’s not that the Wu family can’t afford it, but because exceeding this price would face many issues.

"Eleven billion!" A voice rang out from the front rows.

Bai Mingxuan frowned and looked towards the place where the sign was raised, finding that it was Housekeeper Zhang who called out.

"Seventh Young Master?" Bai Mingxuan raised an eyebrow, becoming hesitant.

Wu Shaokang thought for a moment and tentatively bid, "Eleven billion and fifty million."

"Twelve billion!" Housekeeper Zhang almost immediately raised the sign and shouted.

Wu Shaokang sighed and decided not to follow the bid further, leaving the first piece of land to the Yun family.

The host looked very excited and exclaimed, "This gentleman has called out a price of twelve billion, is there anyone else bidding?"

The venue was silent.

Seeing this, the host shouted, "Alright, now the bid is twelve billion, if no one raises it, this piece of land is this gentleman’s. Now twelve billion once!"

"Thirteen billion!" A voice indifferently arose from the middle position.

Upon hearing this price, many people shuddered.

Because this price has tripled the original baseline of five million per acre, the price of thirteen billion is almost catching up with some prime lands.

Although the geographic location of lot number one is good, it’s not enough to become a prime land.

Even so, the price of lot number one has reached this level, causing many people to worry.

They thought this urban renewal plan might have significant risks, potentially leading to utter ruin if mishandled!

When they noticed the bidder was the Longyu Group, they were surprised.

"It was someone from Longyu Group who bid!"

"No wonder they are so wealthy!"

"Why is the Longyu Group competing with this person? Considering that earlier, both Young Master Bai and Young Master Wu didn’t bid against this person!"

"Impressive, truly fearless newcomers; the people from Longyu Group are indeed bold!"

"Wow, this is going to be interesting!"

Seventh Young Master paused slightly, slowly rose, turned, and looked towards Yang Chen’s position.

Yang Chen met his gaze, unconcerned.

"Are you trying to compete with me?" Seventh Young Master coldly stared at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen smiled slightly and said, "I think this price is appropriate; if you can offer a higher price, maybe I won’t follow."

In fact, Wei Xueqing had already given Yang Chen a bottom line of fifteen billion!

If they could acquire this piece of land within fifteen billion, it would be best; exceeding fifteen billion would entail significant risk.

Therefore, Yang Chen called out the price of thirteen billion.

Seventh Young Master snorted, sat down, and said to Housekeeper Zhang, "Bid fourteen billion!"

"Yes!" Housekeeper Zhang immediately raised the sign and shouted, "Fourteen billion!"

"Fifteen billion!" Yang Chen lazily raised the sign and called out lightly.

Seventh Young Master’s face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "Bid again!"

"Sixteen billion!" Housekeeper Zhang shouted.

Yang Chen intended to bid again but was stopped by Wei Xueqing, who shook her head.

Fifteen billion was their bottom line; bidding beyond that would be too risky.

Seeing this, Yang Chen refrained from bidding further.

Seventh Young Master paused, glanced back, but did not hear Yang Chen continue bidding.

At this time, the host also announced, "Sixteen billion once! Sixteen billion twice! Sixteen billion three times! Alright! Now, lot number one belongs to this gentleman! Since the beginning, this gentleman had his heart set on winning; congratulations, sir, you have obtained the development rights for lot number one!"

Although he secured the opening victory, Seventh Young Master was not happy because the price was too high. Sixteen billion! He wasn’t here to go through the motions and had already done various research and data integration before coming. They concluded that the maximum bid for lot number one should be twelve billion, and now it’s exceeded by three billion!

Three billion! This money wasn’t blown in by the wind!

Seventh Young Master felt a surge of anger in his heart.

If it weren’t for Yang Chen, he could have easily secured lot number one, but now he spent so much more money!

This episode doesn’t affect the ongoing auction; the bidding for the development rights of lot number two has begun.

"Five billion!" Lot number two is adjacent to lot number one, and Seventh Young Master decided to acquire the neighboring land for simultaneous development to increase the value and recoup the losses.

Upon hearing Seventh Young Master’s bid, the venue fell silent, with no one bidding.

The host couldn’t help but say, "Five billion? Is no one bidding? Lot number two’s location is excellent, covering eighty-three acres, and if developed, the profits will be substantial!"

If he truly auctioned off lot number two at a price of five billion, he’d probably be out on the streets tomorrow; no one in the auction circle would want him. So the host diligently touted the benefits here.

At Yang Chen’s side.

Wei Xueqing said to Zhou Huiqing, "Add the price data from lot number one and recalculate. This business district might have significant changes, and it may even impact the entire Ancheng real estate situation!"

"Yes!" Zhou Huiqing nodded and immediately started having the company staff calculate the data.

After all, the price has been inflated and won’t go down again; developers won’t engage in loss-making deals.
