Chapter 338 King Crab

"What's the price of the wine here?"

"The minimum is a few thousand yuan a bottle, and there are also tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. Again, the key is to look at the eyes. If you are not an expert, it is best to buy the cheap ones, and the chances of making money are greater."

Ms. Wang introduced very patiently.

Xu Dong nodded.

Of course, his goal was not red wine, and besides, there was no shortage of wine in their house. For this auction, he brought a full 150 million in cash.

With the backpack, it was almost forty catties.

If it wasn't for being immobile, 10 million wouldn't be a problem. Generally speaking, there were quite a few good things in this auction.

Xu Dong's main target today is the king crab.

I was lucky this time, and there were more than 800 king crabs on the auction, all of which came from the beautiful country.

The North Pacific has been unsealed at the end of March.

These king crabs are probably the first harvest of this year, so the number is far higher than before, but it was never expected that they were finally picked up by the customs.

For "luxury goods" like king crabs, the customs' import tariffs are usually as high as 5.00%, which is almost ten times that of normal years.

Because of huge profits, smuggling is so rampant.

"Sister Wang, is it not common for you to snap a photo in private?" Xu Dong continued to ask.

"It shouldn't be too common. In fact, there are very few good items at auctions. Most of them are things that are not common in life, and there is no market.

Even though there are a lot of people here today, they are all here for the king crabs, and usually not even half of them come, Yanjing, there is no shortage of rich people at any time. "Sister Wang said with emotion.

"Sister Wang, do you want to make a move?"

Sister Wang shook her head: "I'm a salary earner. I don't have the financial strength. Moreover, king crabs are too precious, and they are easy to drop in your hands. The risk is too great."

"What was the price of king crab before?"

"I remember that there was an auction in October last year. At that time, the starting bid was ten, and the final transaction price was around 500,000." Sister Wang recalled.

"50,000 yuan for one?" Xu Dong was a little speechless.

He checked the information before he came, and a king crab is about three catties. Converted to unit price, this is much more expensive than pork, which is about [-] less per catty!

Of course, now pork is expensive and there is no market, and there is no stock if you want to buy it. King crab can still be bought anyway, and it is normal that it is more expensive.

Sister Wang explained: "In the past two years, ocean fishing has become more and more difficult, and the harvest has become less and less, so the price has remained high. If you don't eat it, you will not be able to eat it."

"Aside from seafood, is there any meat at the auction?"

"Yes, there must be. I heard that people in the beautiful country and Canada like to eat steak, so they built a lot of indoor breeding farms, and the customs occasionally seized some smuggled beef.

However, the beef that can be auctioned does not appear a few times a year, and most of them have entered the cafeteria of government agencies. Maybe Xiao Xu, you have eaten it too! "

Xu Dong shook his head firmly, he must have never eaten before, maybe his level is not high enough!
Sister Wang smiled, looked at the big backpack at Xu Dong's feet and said meaningfully: "Xiao Xu, it seems that you came here today prepared, can you stop grabbing red wine from Eldest Sister later?"

"Sister Wang, don't worry, I'm not interested in red wine, so I won't argue with you." Mama Xu promised quickly.

"Elder Sister read that right, Xiao Xu, you really are a big business person, tell Eldest Sister honestly, are you also here for those king crabs?"

"hey-hey……"

Xu Dong smiled.

……

At ten o'clock in the morning, the auction officially started.

Before the auction, a leader of the General Administration of Customs gave a 10-minute speech on stage. The content was very clear, asking everyone to participate in the auction rationally, act according to their own strengths, and cherish their respective budgets.

Xu Dong summed it up.

To put it in plain language, everyone here is my own, so don't hurt your peace, and the higher ups are very strict, don't use public funds for private use.

Of course, "independent" bidders like Xu Dong are not within the scope of the restrictions. The customs still wants to rely on them to return funds, so how could they abolish their martial arts.

After some preparations, the first auction item was put out. Because it was inconvenient to go on stage, the explanation video could only be played through the projector.

"Basically the new Kaidillac XT6, four-wheel drive luxury six-seater, 20 units in quantity, the starting price is [-] million, and the price increase is not less than [-] each time."

"Two thousand and five million."

There were bids immediately on the spot. With the suspension of private cars, there was a shortage of official cars. For example, in Xu Dong's power company, many company executives did not have cars.

Either wait in line, or choose to pay yourself.

"Twenty-one million and two million."

"Twenty-one million and two million."

In less than 5 minutes, the price was raised to 30 million, leaving only three companies still competing.

A large plant factory, a seawater desalination plant, and a coal production enterprise are all leaders in the industry related to the national economy and the people's livelihood.

In the end, these 3000 cars were acquired by Daxia Energy Investment Group, and the transaction price was 500,000 taels and [-] yuan.

In the next few rounds of auctions, more than 100 cars were sold one after another. Vicious competition rarely appeared at the scene, and everyone looked like they were making money with harmony.

It was half past eleven.

Xu Dong’s favorite king crab finally appeared. Just like what Sister Wang introduced, the shooting started in groups of ten, and they were divided into 83 groups in total.

Due to the large number, this auction is divided into two sessions, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, with 48 groups in the morning and 35 groups in the afternoon.

Looking at the excited Xu Dong, Sister Wang couldn't help pouring cold water on him:
"Xiao Xu, don't take pictures in the morning, there is a big background behind them, and it's time for us to shoot in the afternoon."

"What's the background? In the current environment, no one would dare to defy the law, right?" Xu Dong's expression was unfazed.

"Although government agencies don't dare, other people dare, such as consulates of various countries, foreign chambers of commerce, some dignitaries and celebrities who have come to our country to seek refuge, and some important scientific research units, etc., are not within the scope of restrictions."

The distribution of rations is absolutely fair, so domestically produced food must not be moved, and can only be distributed according to big data.

Things that are not domestically produced, because they are not within the scope of distribution, can be handled flexibly, so that both fairness and public anger can be avoided.

Xu Dong sighed: "Is there still such a saying? No wonder it was divided into two games. I thought it was to keep us people!"

"Sigh, there are quite a few in the afternoon anyway, and you will definitely win a group here." Sister Wang comforted.

Xu Dong twitched his lips. His plan was to take pictures of at least [-] king crabs. There are many people in the family, so one group can only taste it.

Since you want to buy it, buy it happily.

"Sister Wang, are the prices of the two auctions the same?"

Sister Wang shook her head: "How can it be the same? Generally, the competition here is much fiercer, and the price is usually more than doubled."
