C146 (2/2)
The host then smiled and said, ”These materials were all chosen by Young Master Zhou to be by his professionals from Yunnan province. It is unknown whether or not there really are any jade hidden within them. ”Alright, I won't waste any more time with words. Next, I'll have one of the organizers of this gathering, Mister Zhou, come up to the stage and explain how to play this time's stone gambling!”
”Cough cough. Alright, I guess we should all know each other so I won't introduce myself. These stones are all bought by me, and every piece is marked with a price. If you wish to bid, you can buy the stones that you want, but if you want to cut into pieces here, you can join our event. Whoever cuts the largest and most valuable piece of jade will be the champion of this year's Stone gambling competition, and win the prize of 10 million! ”
Zhou Ji laughed and said: ”We must not lose this opportunity. Everyone must have a good grasp of it.
”Alright, let's hand the stage over to the host now. Everyone, you must maintain your enthusiasm.”
Zhou Ji added and then quickly left the stage.
”I believe young master Zhou has made it clear that we will now begin the auction. The first piece of wool is priced at 890 thousand, and the probability given by the government is 50%.”
Before the host finished his sentence, the audience below the stage burst into heated discussions. To many of the young masters, the first place was of course extremely important, and those present were all people with status. A mere 980 thousand was naturally not a big deal, immediately raising the board and shouting: ”1 million.”
Before he could finish his sentence, another young master shouted, ”1.5 million!”
had made this auction rules, it was purely set up to cause all sorts of young masters to fight and bite each other.
The final winner, was even him, Zhou Ji. The price of the material kept rising, and in the end, this first wager was won by someone from a rich family with the surname of Zhang for a sky-high price of ten million.
That fellow had spent so much money and bought a piece of trash, but he was still smiling like a fool. How could he not be happy?
”Congratulations No. 13, you have obtained the ownership of the first piece of wool. Sir, do you need me to make a professional cut for you?”
The host asked with a smile, in his heart, this number thirteen was undoubtedly the biggest fool. During the bidding period, many of the people on the stage were Zhou Ji's subordinates, so where did they raise the bidding price on purpose?
Otherwise, it wouldn't have soared to such a terrifying level that this young master was obviously stupid enough.
”No, I'll take it back and keep it.”
Number 13 laughed heartily and said with a harmless look on his face, ”Pack it up for me and I'll let you go!”
”No problem.”
The auctioneer nodded his head and continued, ”Alright, next let's start the auction for the second piece of wool. The starting bid is 100 thousand yuan, and the probability of opening it is about 10%, or even lower.”
Du Lei sat at his desk without moving. He opened his Spirit Eyes and looked through the gathered young masters in front of the stage, then straight at the stage, where nearly fifty pieces of cloth were placed. Other than the 25th piece which had an extremely dense amount of jade, the rest of the material only had a small amount of jade, some did not even have any directly.
It was clear that the probability of opening such expensive wool being so low, was obviously because Zhou Ji had filtered it before. As for the twenty-fifth piece, perhaps even Zhou Ji himself did not know about it.
From Du Lei's judgement, the jade in that piece of woolen material was at least the size of a fist, and from its quality, it could at least be sold for ten million, or even higher.
