Rebirth 1994: Starting from laid-off workers

Zhou Lusheng looked around and saw that countless cameras were already pointed at him, and countless microphones were also nearby.

He coughed slightly and said, "The thing is like this. I received a report this morning that some workers discovered a large amount of natural gold at a certain construction site. It is suspected that a large gold mine has appeared here, but it still needs expert confirmation, so I also I don’t know if it’s a gold mine or not, thank you!”

This kind of ambiguous answer is consistent with the official style, but it also reveals a lot of important information.

Immediately, the surrounding reporters were in a stir, their spotlights flashed frequently, and each microphone almost hit Zhou Lusheng's face.

"Director Zhou, I am Xiao Wang, a reporter from this city's Times. I would like to ask how much natural gold was discovered today?"

"Director Zhou, I am Xiao Liu, a reporter from the Luoning Evening News. I would like to ask you who discovered the gold mine first?"

"Hello, Director Zhou, I am a reporter from the provincial capital newspaper..."

"I'm from the city TV station..."

All the reporters asked questions were about gold mines, and they seemed to have selectively forgotten that today’s topic was land auction!

Zhou Lusheng's entourage immediately stepped forward and struggled to separate the reporters.

"Everyone, give way. Don't crowd around the leader. There are no interviews scheduled tonight. Please pay attention to your working methods. Hey, what about you? Take the microphone away!"

Zhou Lusheng took a few steps back and finally found some space. He stretched out his hand and pressed a few times to silence the scene, then coughed lightly and said.

"The questions you asked are very detailed. Although I did go to the site for inspection, I really can't answer your questions until the experts' conclusions are released. Besides, today is a land auction, not a press conference for the discovery of a huge gold mine. Ah, that’s it, we’ll see you again when we have a chance!”

After saying that, Zhou Lusheng turned around very coolly and walked into the auction venue under the protection of the staff.

Old man Zhou quietly wiped his cold sweat as he walked and cursed in his heart, "You little brat, if you mess up this time, I will skin you alive!"

Soon everyone returned to their seats, the hall with hundreds of people was packed, and the scene gradually became quiet.

At this moment, the stars on the ceiling gradually dimmed, and a bright beam of light shone in the middle of the stage.

A beautiful girl wearing a lace white shirt and a dark green leather vest walked into the beam of light in the darkness.

Suddenly there were bursts of applause and cheers from the audience.

"What a beautiful auctioneer!"

"I heard they are from the Magic City!"

"A guy who has never seen the world, this is Jiang Xinxin, the chief auctioneer of Louis Auction House in Shanghai. I participated in the autumn auction hosted by her last month, and a single silver dollar sold for more than 2000 million U.S. dollars... ..”

"Damn it, if I can have a meal with her, it will be worth all my money!"

"Bah, with your little worth, people won't look down on you, so don't be embarrassed!"

Jiang Xinxin bowed slightly in the beam of light and slowly turned half a circle.

"Dear guests and leaders, thank you all for coming. I will host this auction. First of all, I want to announce the information about the auction subject. This land is located in Heishui Village, Yinzhou City, with a total area of... The starting price is 3000 million Chinese coins, and the bid increase for each bid must not be less than 100 million. The auction begins now!"

Jiang Xinxin's heroic appearance and her voice were like an oriole's, which immediately aroused waves of applause.

It was as if she was the highlight of the night, and that piece of land seemed to be a match.

At this moment, many people in the audience took out their mobile phones and called their bosses to report the situation. Some even didn't even hang up the phone and directly broadcast the situation live.

Jiang Xinxin's beautiful eyes swept over the people in the audience and she said loudly.

"Now guests are invited to bid. The starting price is 3000 million. The first bidder can raise a sign with the starting price!"

However, the people who came today seemed to be appreciating the beauty, and until she said it for the third time, no one made a bid.

Jiang Xinxin showed a trace of irritation on her forehead and said loudly.

"Isn't it possible that no one raised a sign for the lowest price? Such an area of ​​land only costs 3000 million. As long as you pay 3000 million, you have a chance to win this land. Isn't there even a single excited guest?"

When this happens, the auction is about to fail. If it were another auction, the next item would definitely be auctioned immediately, but there was only one item in the auction today, and the scene was suddenly awkward.

Jiang Xinxin also showed an extremely embarrassed expression, and her bright smile turned into a bitter smile.

She raised her voice again.

"This piece of land in Heishui Town has an excellent location and a huge area. It only costs 3000 million to win. Dear guests present, this is my last bid. If no one raises a sign yet, I have to regretfully announce that it has been rejected. made a bid!"

A young woman in the audience said into the phone.

"Mr. Le, the auction is about to be rejected. Should we raise a sign?"

"No one wants 3000 million, so forget the support. Even if this land is waste land, it is still worth 3000 million. Xiao Ai, put up your sign and bid at the lowest price!"

The female assistant Xiao Ai immediately raised the number plate and said, "I bid 3000 million!"

The deadlock was finally broken, and there was a sigh of relief from the audience.

Jiang Xinxin showed surprise, "Ms. No. 31, bid 3000 million. This is exciting news. Does anyone want to increase the price now? Dear guests, as long as you pay 100 million, you will have a chance to get this land. Excuse me. Has anyone increased the price?"

"3000 million for the first time, the second time, the third time..." Jiang Xinxin slowly raised the auction hammer.

However, before she could finish the last word, a man suddenly raised his number plate.

"I'll pay 100 million!"

The audience once again let out waves of exclamations.

Someone even shouted loudly, "It's really rare that there are still people bidding on that piece of land!"

"Everyone likes vegetables and radishes. If others like them, it's none of your business!"

Jiang Xinxin coughed twice, "I understand your enthusiasm, but please be careful not to affect other people's bidding. Thank you very much!"

The beauty spoke, and no one gave her face. The scene was immediately filled with silence.

Jiang Xinxin raised the auction hammer again, "Thirty-one million for the first time. Dear guests, as long as you add another one million, this huge piece of land may be yours. Why are you hesitating? Hurry up and raise your number plate." !”

However, this time until she shouted seven or eight times, no one raised the sign again, and even the lady who raised the sign for the first time stopped.

The scene instantly fell into an embarrassing situation again.

Jiang Xinxin held the auction hammer high and still did not drop, "Dear guests and business elites, this land is now being bid by guest No. 22 for 100 million yuan. Now I announce that you will have a chance to get it as long as you bid another 10 yuan!"

"10 yuan, only 10 yuan, does anyone want to increase the price by [-] yuan? This is the last chance!"

Everyone in the audience laughed.

Someone murmured in a low voice, "No one even came out with a hundred thousand dollars. Hey, it seems like this place is really a rotten egg that no one wants!"

"It's not easy to find beautiful women. If I had more than 100 million yuan, I would definitely bid!"

"Bah, you are shameless. If you can have 3000 million, I can have [-] million!"

Jiang Xinxin made three bids with a helpless expression, and finally raised the auction hammer high and brought it down hard.

However, at this moment, a woman's clear voice sounded, "I'll add [-]!"

However, Jiang Xinxin's auction hammer has fallen.
