Chapter 161: Grab the limelight (1/2)
Just as a calm bomb was thrown into a bomb, there was a bang in the venue, and the sound of various languages rang at the same time.
”Oh God! There are actually 1.45 kg...”
”Did I hear it wrong?”
”God... it’s a miracle!”
”I swear, this is probably the biggest truffle I have ever seen in my life...”
......
The auctioneer was also very experienced and always stood on the stage with a professional smile. Until everyone’s arguments grew smaller, he continued: “This truffle was discovered 18 hours ago in the Alba region of Italy. Just caught up with the plane to China, so this is actually temporarily added to the auction!”
After that, the auctioneer gestured. A courtesy lady in cheongsam took a large tray and went to the stage. She placed the tray on the display stand in the middle of the stage, and then the auctioneer walked over and covered it. The red silk is ripped off, and this huge truffle also reveals its true colors.
All the eyes, including Xia Ruofei, gathered together and saw a volleyball-sized white truffle in a sealed container. This huge truffle was very visually striking under the spotlight.
The auctioneer continued to open the transparent cover.
Suddenly, the hall was filled with the smell of truffles. This special fragrance seemed to be a lot richer at once.
The reputation of the Grasso family is unquestionable, and this is undoubtedly a piece of white truffle.
Even Ma Xiong can't help but move slightly.
The auctioneer smiled and said: ”This year's largest white truffle, starting price of 100,000 US dollars, each increase of not less than 5,000 US dollars, the following interested friends can bid!”
This grade of the best white truffles, obviously can not be measured by the average price of the market, the starting price of 100,000 US dollars seems to be very expensive, but almost no one present will take this money seriously.
This is the biggest white truffle of the year, and this name is worth the price.
So almost the auctioneer’s voice just fell, and some people listed the price to report the price.
”$110,000!”
”The 59th friend is bidding $110,000!” the auctioneer said quickly.
”115,000!”
”125,000!”
”13 million!”
The bidding sounds one after another, and the auctioneer has no time to repeat the quote, and soon the new offer will come out.
The price went up and soon broke through 200,000 US dollars.
Many people have turned their eyes to Ma Xiong. I feel that such a big piece of the best truffles should always be Ma Xiong’s eyes. And this is also the finale of today's finale. If you don't shoot again, it is just a shot of soy sauce.
However, Ma Xiong still sat firmly on the seat, and there was no intention to bid.
At this time, a voice rang from the seat on the right side of the third row: ”$250,000!”
Xia Ruofei heard this voice seem familiar, couldn't help but turn his head and follow the sound, suddenly revealing a strange smile.
It turned out that this price raised the price of 50,000 US dollars at a time. It was the black that competed with Xia Ruofei in the gym in the morning, and then directly ran away from it.
Black's bid made the price increase sounds suddenly stop, and a one-time price increase of 50,000 US dollars, still a little shocking.
“Mr. Black’s bid is $250,000!” The auctioneer took the opportunity to repeat the quote from Black.
Obviously, the $250,000 is still far from the psychological price of many people, so the bidding is only slightly paused.
