Chapter 175: Digging pits and burying people to make money
"Haha, it's only 71 million. Does Mr. Jiang have no money? I'll pay 75 million." Wang Xin smiled wickedly, feeling like a cat and mouse.
Decided to take advantage of the opportunity to raise a high price to scare Jiang Ge away.
"Wait a minute, shopkeeper, can I just buy one piece?" At this moment, Jiang Ge suddenly changed his mind, and everyone was stunned.
"Just buy one piece, of course." Although the shop owner was stunned, he still gave the exact answer.
"Well, I want stone No. 8 and bid 30 million."
Jiang Ge did not pay the original price of 26 million, but deliberately increased it by 4 million. He knew that at this time, the low price was no longer affordable, and the shop owner would definitely make more, but he would not lose in the end.
"Okay, Mr. Jiang bids No. 8 stone 30 million and plans to buy it separately. What does Mr. Wang mean?" The shop owner looked at Wang Xin. He also liked this separate bidding method and felt that he might be able to sell it at a higher price.
"Huh, bid separately?"
What does this guy mean?
Wang Xin rolled his eyes and immediately figured out the key. Jiang Ge must be more optimistic about No. 8, so he decided to only take one piece. Compared with No. 6, the value is not high. Thinking of this, he suddenly made a decision.
"I want it on the 8th too. I'll bid 35 million."
"Forty million!"
Unexpectedly, this time Jiang Ge didn’t even think twice and directly increased the price by five million.
"Forty-five million!"
Seeing this, Wang Xin felt even more that he had guessed Jiang Ge's thoughts, and increased the price by five million. At this time, the other party looked angry and even more proud.
"Fifty million."
Life is like a drama and all depends on acting skills. Jiang Ge gritted his teeth and pretended to endure the pain. The price was increased to 50 million, which was already twice the original price. The shop owner went crazy with joy.
"Mr. Shitou Jiang has increased the price to 50 million for No. 8. Is there anyone else who can give me a higher price... Oh, I'm sorry I almost joined the auction. Mr. Wang, do you need to increase the price?" The shop owner was so happy that he almost thought he had become an auctioneer, but this was not the case.
It's a bit of an auctioneer's addiction.
"Isn't it just 50 million? It's nothing. I'm offering 60 million."
Wang Xin curled his lips in disdain, thinking that this was Jiang Ge's courage, but even so, he would definitely scare the opponent away, and then the benefits would be his own.
"Congratulations, President Wang, I'll give you 60 million. I won't follow you anymore." Jiang Ge looked at Wang Xin with a smile. The goal has been achieved. If he continues, the other party might react.
Wang Xin was stunned, "You won't follow?"
"Yes, I don't have enough money, so I have to reluctantly give up my love." Jiang Ge looked regretful.
At this time, the shop owner also announced in due time, "Congratulations, Mr. Wang, you bought the No. 8 stone for 60 million. I will have someone prepare the contract right away."
As the owner of a store, he was so happy that he originally sold 26 million jade stones for 60 million. It is estimated that the owner will have to praise himself when he finds out about this. The bonus will also be indispensable, and he will save a year of hard work.
"Okay!"
Wang Xin smacked his lips and suddenly regretted, thinking that this bid might not be reliable, but this thought was only temporary after all and was quickly forgotten.
Through his understanding and observation, there are very few people who are favored by Jiang Ge. So this piece of jade is worth 40 to 50 million, and the loss is not much.
After signing the contract and paying the bill, the shopkeeper asked someone to arrange for the stone to be broken. He looked at the two of them and said, "You two, there is also a No. 6 rough stone. Look..."
"I'll bid 50 million on the 6th."
Jiang Ge immediately acted recklessly. For him, he could fight for this stone if he could, and naturally he couldn't take advantage of Wang Xin.
"Fifty million? This kid!"
Wang Xin was a little stunned when he saw Jiang Ge zooming in on him as soon as he came up, but he didn't give in. He snorted coldly, "I'll pay 55 million."
He directly added five million.
At this time, the male secretary next to him said, "Mr. Wang, we don't have much cash at our disposal. You have to be cautious and leave some risk funds for the company."
"Okay, I understand." Wang Xin was a little dissatisfied, but he also knew that the secretary was telling the truth. He could use more than 100 million in funds, and any more would have to go through the board of directors.
Now I have spent 60 million, and when my son prepares to expand the company, there will not be much left.
"Fifty-eight million, this is my final price. If President Wang still wants to follow me, I won't give it up."
Jiang Ge pretended to have a look of helplessness and stopped talking after quoting the price, as if he was suddenly enlightened.
"Why, Mr. Jiang is dying, so he can't cry anymore."
Wang Xin was very happy to see Jiang Ge's appearance. He felt that this was Jiang Ge's bottom line. The final value of this jade was not estimated to be high, and it would not make any money to buy more, so Jiang Ge gave up directly.
In this way, he would not be fooled. The risk was too great, so he smiled slightly and said, "Since Mr. Jiang is interested, I can't let you go away empty-handed. I think this stone will belong to you, and I will not participate in the competition."
"Oh, why are you so embarrassed? Otherwise, you will get it. The risk of gambling on stones is too high. I think I was a little reckless just now." Unexpectedly, Jiang Ge directly pushed it out. Seeing this, Wang Xin became more sure.
He was originally just testing. If Jiang Ge was really willing to win for 58 million, then he would definitely continue to compete. If Jiang Ge didn't want him, he wouldn't dare. After all, the price is not low now, and he also offered it at a very high price.
I bought one for the price.
"Shopkeeper, I won't be involved in this stone anymore. You can give it to this gentleman...haha!"
Wang Xin laughed and seemed to feel that he had won. Jiang Ge took the worst stone at a high price and took higher risks, but he took the best one.
"Okay, Mr. Jiang, let's sign the contract directly. Congratulations on buying this jade." The shop owner said directly to Jiang Ge.
Jiang Ge looked helpless and sighed, "Okay."
There seemed to be some lack of interest. This gesture made other people feel that Jiang Ge had suffered a loss, and they all complained about him.
"This guy surnamed Wang has gone too far. He deliberately raised the price and made the boss spend so much money. How much work does this have to do?"
Liu Fei glared at Wang Xin hatefully. She felt particularly sorry for Jiang Ge's money, as if it was her own.
"Miss, Mr. Jiang was a little reckless this time. It's not worthwhile to spend such a high price!" Su Shishi frowned.
"Well, I know, this Wang Xin didn't expect to be so insidious. It was in vain that we wanted to help him at first. I hope Jiang Ge doesn't resent us." Su Jinwu was also a little worried, feeling that Jiang Ge must feel uncomfortable after suffering a secret loss for nothing.
.
At this moment, the cutter's exclamation came from the front.
"No. 8 material, big and broken, the inside is considered waste material, the meat is very rough."
The scene was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.
What?
Big collapse!
Everyone was staring at Wang Xin at this moment, and then Wula rushed into the cutting place. When they saw the jade scattered on the ground, they were stunned.
The surface of the cut stone was extremely rough and full of cracks, just like a stubborn stone. The only jade material that could be seen was of the lowest quality.
"How is that possible? Get out of the way. Get out of the way quickly."
At this moment, Wang Xin finally recovered from his daze and pushed away the crowd with a worried look on his face.
But when he saw the actual cut material, he lost his composure and yelled, "This bastard, you tricked me. How could it be this waste?"
He runs a jewelry company, so he naturally knows the quality of jade. As soon as he saw the material, he knew it was hopeless. Even if it was made into a pig trough, no one would want it.
But he still didn't give up and looked at the cutting master, "According to your experience, can this kind of material produce good results?"
"Boss, it's almost zero. This material is so bad, it's just waste stone. Even if we get some low-grade stone, it's only a few hundred thousand. It's impossible to get any more." The cutting master looked sympathetic.
