Chapter 754: The first battle (2/2)
Xia Ruofei flipped through the process of the auction. Feng Wei just had a simple speech after the auction ended.
She really didn't want to show her face, but for Xia Ruofei's somewhat ridiculous apportionment, she also had no ability to refuse. The final arrangement was the product of compromise.
After Dong Jiajun took office, there was no long story. He only introduced the situation of the auctions enthusiastically. He expressed his gratitude to all the guests and guests who were present today, and then invited the gold auctioneer Lu Zhongguang of Hengfeng Auction.
The white truffles that participated in the auction were 38, and the black truffles were 19.
The largest white truffle is 2.75 kg and the black truffle is 2.66 kg.
There are 6 pieces of white truffles of 2 kg or more, and 3 pieces of black truffles. In addition, there are 15 pieces of white truffle between 1 and 2 kg, and 7 pieces of black truffles; the remaining 16 pieces of white truffles and 8 pieces of black truffles At least eight or nine hundred grams.
It can be said that the truffles of this auction, even if they are relatively the worst, can be regarded as the best.
The first auction was for white truffles and black truffles under one kilogram.
Eight black truffles debuted.
About half of the buyers in this auction are from Europe and the United States, so the auction used a common currency to settle the bill.
The eight black truffles were auctioned one by one. The eight black truffles with an average weight of eight or nine hundred grams were sold for more than $4,000. The eight black truffles brought a total of 35,000 to Xia Ruofei. US dollar income.
The price of white truffles is obviously more expensive.
The same weight of white truffles is inherently more precious than black truffles, plus the harvest of this year's white truffles is the worst in recent years, and objectively, the price has risen.
The 16 white truffles started at $10,000, and the lightest one reached 882 grams. The truffles cost $65,000, and the next 15 were not below this price.
In the end, the total price of the 16 white truffles reached 1.129 million US dollars.
This can only be regarded as a warm-up auction good thing is still behind! Even so, Xia Ruofei has already invested 1.164 million US dollars.
Basically, all the bidders are buyers in the ordinary district. Although the truffles are definitely on the other occasions, they are definitely the best, but at today's auction, they are only the lowest grade, and there are more. More and more truffles did not appear, and those who were specially invited to the auction would basically not be shot at this time.
People with identity still have to hold on.
And Black's face sitting in the ordinary area also had a trace of disdainful smile, and did not participate in the competition for this truffle.
After the auction of truffles below one kilogram, Lu Zhongguang immediately announced the start of the second truffle auction.
The best truffles in this auction are too many, and now the reputation of Taoyuan Company has also been played out. It is also a brand guarantee, so Lu Zhongguang rarely sells the goods, and the entire auction is very compact.
The remaining 11 black truffles are all arranged in this batch for auction.
Among them, 7 pieces between 1 and 2 kg, more than 2 kg, including the largest 2.66 kg piece, a total of 4 pieces.
The price of black truffles has always been much lower than that of white truffles. Even in the case of a sharp drop in production this year, the price of black truffles is much lower than that of white truffles.
Seven pieces of 1 to 2 kilograms of black truffles, a total of 380,000 dollars.
Four pieces of black truffles of more than 2 kilograms brought a total of $730,000 in revenue to Xia Ruofei. Among them, the 2.66 kilograms of black truffles sold for 200,000 dollars, far exceeding the unit price of the current black truffles.
Of course, the weight of the single truncated black truffles, because of its scarcity, so the price must not be calculated at the market price.
Then there was only the auction of the white truffles. The rich and famous celebrities who had been lacking in interest before also sat up straight and began to show a serious look.
Although Black is still pretending to be indifferent, his eyes on the stage from time to time have exposed his inner thoughts.
First placed on the auction floor, there are 15 pieces of white truffle between 1 and 2 kg. The starting price of these white truffles is 100,000 US dollars.
The first piece of white truffle with a weight of 1.12 kg was shot, and everyone was bidding for it. Soon the price came to $210,000.
This has basically reached the limit price in previous years, but this year, the price may be higher because the harvest is not very good.
The chefs of two Michelin restaurants have participated in the bidding. Even after the price reached $210,000, the two are still weighing the price increase strategy.
After all, when such a white truffle is brought back to the restaurant, it will definitely bring about a considerable advertising effect, and it is definitely not a loss to split the retail in the restaurant.
Just then, a lazy voice said: ”$250,000!”
This voice came from the ordinary seat, Lu Zhongguang could not help but stunned, but the professional quality made him almost subconsciously follow the prestige, and then accurately quoted the price: ”Mr. 184 bid $ 250,000!”
The person holding the 184 bid is Black.
Black's offer was a bit unreasonable, and the price was already close to the ceiling. He added $40,000 at once, and it was definitely worth it.
After he finished the price, he squinted at Xia Ruofei. Of course, he did not forget to sneak a look at Monica. Unfortunately, Monica did not have any expression changes.
As soon as this offer came out, the people who had previously competed gave up.
Although there are a lot of wealthy people, but none of them are big heads, and there are more than a dozen pieces of white truffles waiting for the auction, and there will be more heavyweight finals, and there is still money to buy. Truffles? Can this black cow be able to take all the truffles in this way without the usual reason?
Sitting in the middle of the first row, Ma Xiong's face became a bit ugly, but he had no way. Black was uninvited, and he must have shot at the auction. He could not stop it.
Ma Xiong is worried that Xia Ruofei will be awkward in his heart.
Lu Zhongguang saw that the buyers present did not seem to bid, so he did not hesitate to say: ”Which one has to pay a higher price? 250,000 US dollars for the first time! 250,000 US dollars for the second time! 250,000 US dollars third...”
Just as Lu Zhongguang said while holding up the auction, there was another faint voice from the audience: ”300,000 dollars!”
