Chapter 256: Site No. 8
Xiang Rui dragged his body and swallowed hard. Beads of sweat the size of beans kept flowing down his forehead. He planned to use the money in his account to bid for another piece of land.
If the company really spent 35 million to buy such a shabby piece of land, it would be difficult for it to recover.
He regretted, really regretted why he wanted to compete with Su Yang and had to quote such a price.
Just before the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Su Yang lazily raised the sign in his hand.
"Thirty-five million, two hundred thousand."
Xiang Rui slumped in the chair, gasping for breath. He was of rather large build to begin with, and just now he had been concentrating and holding his breath, but now he felt like he had survived a calamity, and his breathing was as heavy as the movement of an engine.
The auctioneer raised his hand: "Jitu Express, thirty-five million and two hundred thousand, one time!"
"Is there anyone else bidding?"
This statement was like bringing up something irrelevant. The whole place was as quiet as a cicada in the cold. Didn't you see how scared Xiang Rui was? How dare they bid again? Isn't this nonsense?
The auctioneer shouted three times and finally the hammer fell.
The moment the hammer fell, everyone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief. Several people who had been warned by Si Xuezhong to raise the price couldn't help but wipe the sweat from their heads. Fortunately, they didn't make an offer, otherwise no one would be able to take the responsibility if this piece of broken land fell into their hands.
Zhang Guohua narrowed his eyes and sneered.
"Director Si, I didn't expect that this guy would come here for Site No. 17."
"Once you make a little money, you can't tell east from west."
“This piece of land is cheap, but it’s not something that ordinary people can afford. Even if you solve the problem, you won’t make much money in the end, and it’s not certain whether you can sell the house.”
Si Xuezhong frowned for a long while before blurting out two words: "Idiot."
He originally wanted to raise the price so that Su Yang would learn a lesson and realize that there are always people better than you. However, he did not expect that Su Yang would choose a piece of land that had been unsold seven times.
What on earth does he want to do?
The auctioneer held out his hand: "Congratulations to Mr. Su from Jitu Express."
"Next is the 18th plot, which is also located in Tiebei and is only one street away from the 17th plot. I won't go into detail about the plot. This plot of land is 90,000 square meters, and the starting price is 31 million. Each bid increase must not be less than 100,000."
"Please make an offer..."
After the words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent again.
These plots of land, number 17 and 18, were originally sold as a package, but this time they were separated. But even so, who would buy them?
Except for the big bastard sitting at the back!
Many people's eyes were focused on Su Yang, but Su Yang didn't care at all and just lowered his head to look at his phone.
Xiang Rui, who had just been scared out of his wits, also clenched his fists.
"I just don't believe it. Can he take over this land number 18?"
The boss of a small construction company nearby laughed and said, "Boss Xiang, if Jitu Express can get one piece of land, it's already a great success. It's simply a pipe dream to want to get two pieces of land."
Xiang Rui nodded and felt that what he said made sense.
Where did Su Yang get the money to buy two pieces of land in one go?
Just buying the site No. 17 should have bankrupted him. Others might not know about Jitu Express, so how could he not know about it?
The only profitable business in Su Yang's hands is Susutong Logistics. Now the scale of Susutong Logistics is similar to that of Jieyun Logistics, but the financial resources are far less than that of Jieyun Logistics.
MRT Logistics is a really profitable business, but SUSUTO Logistics is still heavily in debt.
Originally, if the price of Plot No. 17 and Plot No. 18 was lower, he would be interested in buying them. As long as he held on to them for a few years and waited for the surrounding areas to develop, he might be able to make money from these two plots of land.
But who knew that Su Yang would intercept it.
In addition, he had a good relationship with Ao Guangxiao. If Su Yang had not ruined the MRT Logistics, would Ao Guangxiao have been driven to this dead end and shot dead in public?
Not to mention, Si Ruyun was a shareholder of Songjiang Construction. He and Ao Guangxiao were in the same boat, so it was inevitable that he would feel grief over the loss of one.
Now Su Yang has snatched away the two pieces of land he had been eyeing. This is cutting off someone's source of income, just like killing his parents.
If site number 17 is lost, it’s lost. If site number 18 is lost too, then he would have been worrying about it for nothing for so long.
The auction room was completely silent.
The auctioneer looked at Su Yang, who was sitting behind him, with some hope, expecting him to win the land with a wave of his hand.
But after waiting for a few seconds, there was still no sound.
The auctioneer could only say, "Plot 18, 31 million per time!"
"Thirty-one million twice..."
"Thirty-one million three times..."
The auctioneer raised the hammer in his hand, and Xiang Rui clenched his fists. As long as the land failed to be sold, he could find a way to buy it at a lower price. Then, at least he could make sure he didn't lose money.
If I wait a few more years and the environment in Tiebei improves, I might be able to make some money.
No matter how much or how little, with such a large piece of land and such a cheap price, as long as he can wait, he will definitely make money!
This is what he felt from the very beginning. He thought that Su Yang had won the bid for plot No. 17 and he had no hope. Unexpectedly, he actually gave up plot No. 18.
That’s OK, at least I can get one!
But what Xiang Rui didn't expect was that just before the hammer fell, Su Yang, who was sitting in the last row, raised his hand again.
He looked in the direction of the auctioneer and called out his bid.
"Thirty-one thousand and one hundred thousand."
The whole place was silent. The bosses of nearly a hundred construction companies all looked at Su Yang, staring at him in a daze, unable to speak.
It was not until someone cursed softly that the sound in the auction hall was restored.
"Is this guy crazy? He took over both Site 17 and Site 18 at the same time. Isn't this nonsense? It's hard enough to take just one piece. He invested 35 million yuan. If things go wrong, the capital chain might even be broken."
"He's good, he even bid two, that's more than 60 million!"
A group of people started whispering, their eyes full of confusion.
More than 60 million is enough to buy two plots of land in good locations. For the same price, who would choose plots 17 and 18? Wouldn’t it be enough trouble to get involved with these two plots of land?
A group of people, each talking at the same time.
The auctioneer on the stage was a little excited. She had seen with her own eyes that plots of land No. 17 and No. 18 had failed to be sold seven times. She thought they would fail again this time, but unexpectedly, they were actually sold!
At least I didn’t lose it!
"Thirty-one thousand and one hundred thousand, deal!"
"Congratulations to Mr. Su from Jitu Express!"
The auctioneer was about to introduce the next piece of land when Xiang Rui, who was sitting in the audience, suddenly stood up.
"Wait a moment!"
"Everyone be quiet!"
In the auction hall, all eyes were focused on Xiang Rui. Although Su Yang's purchase of plots 17 and 18 was a bit foolish, he had a lot of money to burn and it was none of other people's business. Most people didn't care and kept aloof.
No one expected that Xiang Rui would stand up at this time.
The auctioneer smiled and said, "The auction is still going on. Mr. Xiang, if you have anything to say, you can talk to me later!"
Xiang Rui waved his hand: "No, this matter must be made clear now!"
