The first top lady

The auction officially begins.

Everyone had taken their seats according to the organizer's arrangement, and Ji Ruxing happened to sit in front of Bo Yanzhen.

"Is this boss also from Yan'an?" A middle-aged man next to Ji Ruxing glanced at the nameplate in front of Ji Ruxing, which read "Yan'an Baozhen Finance" in large letters. He had been doing business in Yan'an for many years, but had never heard of this company. He asked, "He looks a little unfamiliar."

Ji Ruxing politely responded, "I've just arrived. Please take care of me in the future!"

"Of course! Of course!" said the middle-aged man politely.

The starting price for the ten-year use rights to plots 13, 14, and 15 on Central Street was 3.5 billion yuan. At 5 billion yuan, some smaller companies dropped out, leaving only the Wangu Group and Pei Group in Yan'an, the Yongxiang Group in Jinggang, and the Sihai Hotel in Haojing still in the running.

There was still a big gap from the 8 billion budget, so Pei Yongzhang continued to bid without hesitation.

"Fifty-five billion!"

The Jinggang Yongxiang Group's agent said calmly, "5.8 billion!"

The Haojing Sihai Hotel is Li Daoqing's business. After returning to China, he first established a firm foothold in Haojing and is now expanding his business territory inland. Yan'an's auction is undoubtedly his breakthrough.

"Six billion!" The client of Sihai Hotel raised his sign to bid.

Gu Juechen glanced sideways at the Pei family's location on the other side, a hint of disappointment flashing across his brows. He had thought Pei Yuanchen would come in person, so he might even see Cheng Shaoyang beside him. But it was Pei Yongzhang who came instead.

Is Pei Yuanchen confident in handing over such an important auction to Pei Yongzhang?

Or is it that Pei Yuanchen has no interest in the land on Central Street at all?

But obtaining the use rights of these three pieces of land is beneficial to Wan Gu Group and has no disadvantages. It is just icing on the cake.

"Six and a half billion!" Gu Juechen said without changing his expression.

Wan Gu Group is the second largest enterprise in the country. As long as he wants to win today's auction, the right to use the land on Central Street will be his.

Bo Yanzhen, who had been silent the entire time, saw Pei Yongzhang raise his bid card mid-air. He quickly raised his bid card first and said decisively, "Seven billion!"

Ji Ruxing turned his head and looked back, just in time to catch a glimpse of Bo Yanzhen staring at Pei Yongzhang's back with raised eyebrows, a momentary sneer on his face.

Oh! So you wanted to disgust Pei Yongzhang on purpose!

Then I'll play with him too!

Pei Yongzhang said to Bo Yanzhen with a forced smile, "Miss Bo, the Bo family has been weak recently. It's better to build a solid foundation first before considering taking off."

The sarcasm is evident!

So, under Pei Yongzhang's gaze, Ji Ruxing slowly raised the bidding card he had been playing with for a long time, and his lazy voice echoed throughout the venue, "Eighty-one billion!"

After she finished speaking, she deliberately raised her eyebrows, full of provocation!

Pei Yongzhang's face turned visibly green.

Everyone's eyes turned to the center of the venue at the same time.

Ji Ruxing sat there gracefully. At this moment, she was brighter than the spotlight!

Ji Ruxing's price directly and accurately broke the budget bottom line of everyone present.

It’s just the budget base price, how could she not find it?

Don't forget, Ying knows all the news that happened in this city.

Bo Yanzhen couldn't guess Ji Ruxing's thoughts for a moment.

Does she really want the right to use the three plots of land on Central Street?

Isn't it said that the new company has difficulty in cash flow? How can they easily come up with 8.1 billion?

Gu Juechen said without any pressure: "8.2 billion."

Pei Yongzhang's face darkened even further, and he gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "8.25 billion!"

He had to be careful!

Gu Juechen wanted to raise his hand again, but Gu Tangxu reminded him, "Second Uncle, we've exceeded the budget, but anything within 10 billion is fine."

This is the strength of Wan Gu Group, which gives it the confidence to raise prices by a quarter more than other companies.

Gu Juechen disliked the hassle of raising the price, so he simply raised the price directly: "Ninety-nine billion!"

The clients of Yongxiang Group and Sihai Hotel have contacted their respective bosses and will no longer participate in the auction.

Pei Yongzhang miscalculated again.

Eight billion was the budget Pei Yuanchen had given him, but he could handle two billion without any problems. Therefore, anything within ten billion was also within his acceptable range.

He decided to take a gamble, so he stood up angrily, raised his right index finger, and shouted, "Ten billion!"

Gu Juechen suddenly lowered his head and chuckled, then said calmly, "One hundred and three hundred million."

He guessed that Pei Yongzhang must be determined to acquire the land, and he was raising the price now not because he wanted to win the auction, but to trick Pei Yongzhang in the end.

Pei Yongzhang was angry but dared not say anything, so he could only continue bidding, "One hundred and five billion!"

Gu Juechen said: "One hundred and eight hundred million."

Pei Yongzhang cursed inwardly, "You bastard!" and said loudly, "One hundred and eleven billion!"

Gu Juechen smiled, turned the bidding card in his hand, and did not bid again.

"One hundred and eleven billion once, one hundred and eleven billion twice, one hundred and eleven billion three..."

Just before the hammer was about to fall, that lazy voice sounded again.

"Twelve billion."

Pei Yongzhang was feeling proud. Just when he thought he had already secured victory, this calm and unhurried, neither soft nor hard voice instantly poured a bucket of cold water on him.

He looked in the direction of the voice and met those charming eyes again.

If anger had not filled his eyes and brain, he would have carefully appreciated Ji Ruxing's beauty.

"One hundred and twenty-five billion!" Pei Yongzhang said unconvinced.

"Thirteen billion." Ji Ruxing said slowly.

"Thirteen and a half billion!"

"Fourteen billion."

……

Bo Yanzhen couldn't help but worry for Ji Ruxing behind him.

This price is no longer worth it.

Pei Yongzhang was so angry that his mouth was trembling. Monkey tried to persuade him for a long time, but he had already raised the price to the highest level and would not listen to anyone else.

"Second Master, you really can't shout anymore!"

"I'll bankrupt her!" Up to this point, his bidding had become purely a personal vendetta against Ji Ruxing. He was determined to make Ji Ruxing pay a heavy price. "One last shot, 20 billion!"

He is waiting for the other party to raise the price!

As long as Ji Ruxing calls out again, he will definitely give the contract to Ji Ruxing.

but……

Ji Ruxing silently picked up the teacup on the table and sipped the tea slowly, pretending not to hear anything and having no intention of bidding again.

Pei Yongzhang's heart skipped a beat.

broken!

Fell into a trap!

He had to bear this huge loss.
