Chapter 127 The Auction Ends
Time passed slowly, and the auction gradually came to an end.
Almost all the high-quality raw stones on the stage were sold out.
All the jade dealers returned home with their bags full, their faces beaming with joy.
Only Zhou Chen and his two companions did not take a single picture of the stones from beginning to end.
In the huge auction hall, everyone else was frantically hoarding goods to make money.
The three of them watched the whole thing, sitting empty-handed.
The atmosphere was indescribably awkward.
No one knew the inside story; everyone present assumed the Zhou family had backed down today.
Zhou Chen sat in his seat, pretending to be calm, but he was actually starting to panic.
This selection of materials in Kunming was an important task specifically assigned to me by my father, Zhou Mingyuan.
The goal is to stockpile high-quality raw stones in large quantities to replenish the company's supply for the second half of the year.
But now things are different.
They left empty-handed, without taking a single piece of material.
When he got back, he really didn't know how to explain it to his father.
If word gets out, the entire jade industry will laugh at the Zhou family!
Zhou Chen felt extremely uneasy, and the more she thought about it, the more anxious she became.
In contrast, Shen Wei remained silent throughout the entire process.
His face was frighteningly gloomy, his eyes were icy cold, and he stared intently at Lin Yuan beside him.
He didn't argue a single word from beginning to end.
But in his heart, he had already begun to make a crazy plan.
Today we missed out on all the top-quality raw materials and countless opportunities for huge profits.
As the company's purchasing manager, he is undoubtedly to blame.
I'll definitely be held accountable by Boss Zhou when I get back.
So he has already come up with a plan.
All the blame was placed on Lin Yuan.
They said that Lin Yuan was pretending to know what he was talking about and was recklessly obstructing the bidding, thus delaying all the opportunities to stockpile goods.
Since Lin Yuan isn't a company employee, the blame can be shifted, and no one can find fault with it.
A shadowy glint flashed in Shen Wei's eyes; he had already made his own plans.
The entire audience was filled with unease and their own thoughts.
Lin Yuan was the only one who sat calmly, his mindset unusually stable.
He remained calm and watched quietly as the last few rough stones on the stage were sold.
There was not a ripple in his eyes.
What others are panicking about is not being able to buy the goods and not being able to explain themselves.
He didn't panic at all.
Because he knows it better than anyone else.
All the top-quality rough stones that were snapped up and sought after today are here today.
It looks like it's worth millions, but it's all fake—all show and no substance!
Whoever buys the most will lose the most!
The happier everyone is now, the more desperate they will be when the stone is cut open tonight.
Seeing Lin Yuan's calm and composed demeanor, Zhou Chen felt a little more at ease.
Even though he was still uneasy, he still chose to trust his brother.
With the final hammer blow from the auctioneer, the entire rough stone auction officially came to an end.
All the jade merchants present stood up.
Everyone held their bidding slips in their hands, their faces beaming with the joy of a successful bid.
Only Zhou Chen and his two companions arrived empty-handed, having gained nothing.
He stood out from the crowd, catching everyone's eye.
The shop owners passing by couldn't help but glance at him.
His eyes held a mixture of mockery, doubt, and a hint of veiled sarcasm.
The Zhou family traveled all the way from out of town to Kunming, but they didn't dare to bid on a single rough stone.
If word gets out, it'll be a laughing stock in the industry.
Just then, an arrogant figure walked straight toward the three of them.
It was Huang Wenlong, who had just gone on a shopping spree and made a fortune.
He was dressed in an expensive suit, stood tall and straight, and had a radiant smile on his face.
I just bought several top-quality rough stones, and I'm in an extremely good mood.
Seeing Zhou Chen return empty-handed made him feel indescribably happy.
Huang Wenlong walked straight up to Shen Wei, looking down at him with a mocking smile on his lips.
He deliberately lowered his voice, his tone filled with mockery and humiliation.
"Manager Shen."
"How come you didn't bid on a single stone during the entire auction today?"
He paused, then deliberately dragged out his words, adding a sarcastic remark.
"What's wrong? Are you short on cash and can't afford to buy more goods?"
Upon hearing this, several jade merchants who hadn't gone far immediately perked up their ears.
All eyes turned to them, their desire to watch the spectacle was obvious.
Shen Wei's face instantly turned bright red, filled with both shame and anger.
I was so embarrassed that I dug my toes into the ground.
He wanted to refute, but he couldn't find the words to say.
We didn't manage to acquire a single piece of material today; the facts are undeniable.
All the frustration of missing out on good deals, the anger of being blocked by Lin Yuan, and the embarrassment of being publicly humiliated.
All of it piled up in my heart in an instant.
Shen Wei subconsciously turned his head and glared fiercely at Lin Yuan beside him.
His eyes were filled with resentment and malice.
Everything, it's all because of this person!
If Lin Yuan hadn't obstructed them, how could they have returned empty-handed?
How could Huang Wenlong publicly ridicule him and make him lose face?
Zhou Chen's expression was also not good, and his fists clenched slightly.
Being openly mocked by one's arch-rival is something no one could swallow.
He gritted his teeth and did not question Lin Yuan.
He believed that Lin Yuan would never betray him.
In contrast, Lin Yuan was being closely watched by everyone.
He remained calm and composed throughout.
He showed no anger whatsoever in the face of Huang Wenlong's deliberate provocation and humiliation.
He merely glanced indifferently at the smug Huang Wenlong, a hint of cold mockery flashing in his eyes.
No money?
ridiculous.
The more arrogantly they laugh now, the more miserably they'll cry when they're getting their stones cut at night.
These top-quality rough stones are highly sought after and regarded as treasures by everyone.
They're all fake!
Huang Wenlong emptied his savings to bid at a high price, seemingly getting a great deal.
In reality, he dug an abyss for himself!
Lin Yuan understood.
Not urgent.
Now all the humiliation, ridicule, and contempt.
Before long, they will all turn the tables.
Today's auction is held at the Kunming Municipal Bureau of Auction.
The real losers were never the Zhou family, who returned empty-handed.
It's these greedy people who rushed in and snapped up jade!
