Chapter 672 Wool Auction
Seeing that Chu Chen actually spent 480 million to buy the piece of wool, Chu Yulan and the others were very worried.

"Brother Chen, is the price too high?" Liu Sizhe asked with a frown.

Chu Chen smiled slightly, gave everyone a reassuring look, and said, "I'm still very optimistic about this piece of wool. Although 480 million is indeed a bit more expensive, I don't think it's a loss."

Everyone believed in Chu Chen's stone gambling skills, and they were relieved when they saw what he said.

Chu Yulan asked, "Brother, does that guy have a grudge against you?" After she finished speaking, she gave Du Yuncheng a look of disgust.

Just as Chu Chen was about to tell the reason, Lu Changshun also walked over, apologizing, "Xiao Chu, I'm so sorry, I never thought that Du Yuncheng's heart would be so small, because of what happened in the morning, Just hold a grudge."

Upon hearing this, Liu Sizhe quickly asked, "Shopkeeper Lu, what happened this morning?"

"He bought a piece of wool that Xiao Chu didn't like, and he made a bet..." Lu Changshun briefly told a few people what happened in the morning.

"No way!" When everyone heard that this was the case, they all looked at each other in blank dismay. It was just that this person had poor eyesight, so what did it have to do with Chu Chen?And he even vented his anger on Chu Chen, isn't this person too weird?
Chu Chen smiled and waved his hands and said, "There may be these factors in it, but I think the most important thing is that during the Spring Festival, I appraised and helped appraise a bronze tripod in his family."

"Oh!" Hearing this, Chu Yulan also remembered: "I said that woman is so familiar, so it is that Du Liyu! Then this man is also surnamed Du. Could it be that he is Du Shengqing's son?"

"Well, it's him!" Chu Chen nodded.

Wen Yuting quickly asked, "Yulan, tell me quickly, what's going on?"

"That's what happened..." Wen Yuting briefly explained what happened that day, and then said angrily:
"When Guan Lao said that, I still didn't believe it. I didn't expect this person to be so hateful!"

After hearing the ins and outs of the incident, everyone was speechless for a while. Your stuff is a fake. Can others not say it?Besides, Chu Chen was invited by Guan Guokang at that time, so he must be responsible for Guan Guokang, and Chu Chen cannot be blamed for this matter!
Lu Changshun frowned and said, "This matter is related to Lao's unreliable actions. Didn't he explain it afterwards?"

"Forget it!" Chu Chen waved his hand: "Anyway, it's just a clown, and I also promised Mr. Guan, let's forget about today's matter, but no matter how indiscriminate he is, then I will take some measures!"

Speaking of which, now Chu Chen has some opinions on Guan Guokang. After all, this matter is also caused by the trouble caused by helping Guan Guokang to appraise it. It can't be said that Guan Guokang doesn't think of a way to solve it just because he is asked to restrain himself?

And the solution to this matter is also very simple, as long as Guan Guokang calls Du Shengqing, Chu Chen can't believe that the other party dared to trouble him after hearing his background.

But now, from the behavior of Du Yuncheng's brother and sister, it can be seen that the other party does not know Chu Chen's identity at all. In other words, Guan Guokang probably didn't even call. How can this not make Chu Chen feel bad about Guan Guokang?

Of course, in the contact between Chu Chen and Guan Guokang, he knew that Guan Guokang was quite reliable in his usual work, and he believed that Guan Guokang would not even have thought of such a thing.

"Maybe some accident happened?" Chu Chen thought so.

Everyone believes that Chu Chen should be able to handle this matter well, and after hearing what he said, they will not say more about this matter.

At this time, Liu Sizhe asked, "Shopkeeper Lu, why do you invite this kind of person to participate in the auction?"

Lu Changshun smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't know that this guy was so small-hearted. If I had known this, I would definitely not have invited him over."

Although Lu Changshun also held the auction to make money, and he is benefiting from the current situation, but just like ordinary auctions, even if there is a price increase, there will be a certain limit, otherwise it will be easy to overdo it. caused public outrage.

So Lu Changshun seemed to have benefited from the behavior just now, but if this happened again and again at his auction, his reputation would also be damaged.Besides, if the person who suffered the loss had the same personality as Du Yuncheng, and turned his anger on Lu Changshun, wouldn't he be the Chi Yu who was affected?
"Xiao Chu, how about I give you a discount!" Lu Changshun said to Chu Chen.

Chu Chen smiled and waved his hands: "No, this matter has nothing to do with you, besides, don't you think I won't bet high?"

Although Lu Changshun also believed in Chu Chen's stone gambling level, he really didn't believe that this piece of wool would be able to gamble up after buying it for 480 million. Of course, he could only think about it in his heart. Wouldn't say that.

Lu Changshun persuaded him a few words, and seeing that Chu Chen really didn't want any discounts, he planned to give Chu Chen some discounts depending on the situation, and then he said goodbye: "That's fine, Xiao Chu, I'll go first, if there is something to do, let the waiter directly Just call me..."

In the following auction, Chu Chen changed his previous strategy. Basically, he had to quote a second price for each piece of wool. At first, everyone thought that the wool was Chu Chen's favorite, and they actively bid.

But Chu Chen's performance made many people very depressed. Some of them did not quote the price after several times. The key point was that some of them deliberately raised the price. When someone followed the price, he smiled and refused to follow. up.The jade merchants present here are not fools either. After a few times, they immediately knew that it would be difficult for them to follow suit.

In fact, everyone thinks Chu Chen's behavior is normal. After all, no one wants to give up their favorite things to others. If it were themselves, they would do the same.

Therefore, in the following wool auction, everyone tried not to be affected by Chu Chen's bid. In the end, Chu Chen really relied on this method to pocket two pieces of wool that he liked, although the price was higher than he expected. It is more expensive, but compared with the value of the jade inside the wool, it is still not worth mentioning.

During the period, Chu Chen's arrival was not all smooth. Du Yuncheng, who was sitting in front, kept staring at him, and as long as he made an offer, he followed suit.In the end, the two emeralds that Chu Chen had his eye on were photographed by Du Yuncheng.

Although the final transaction price was almost close to the value of the emeralds in the wool, Du Yuncheng earned nearly 100 million in total, which made Chu Chen a little unhappy.

As revenge, Chu Chen also tricked Du Yuncheng, one of which performed very well, with a starting price of 80 yuan, but the internal jadeite was only worth 50 yuan.

During the auction, Chu Chen deliberately showed concern. Of course, Du Yuncheng followed closely, but Du Yuncheng bought it at a price of 205 million.This also allowed Chu Chen to take revenge.

At this time, Du Yuncheng didn't know that he had already lost 55 yuan. He was very satisfied with being able to buy these three pieces of wool, because these three pieces of wool were originally on his purchase list, but it was lower than the previous budget. It was 200 million more, but he felt that since Chu Chen was very optimistic about these three pieces of wool, he would definitely be able to make a lot of money.

However, there is a problem now, because it is 200 million more than the budget, and his current funds are not enough to pay for the raw materials, so it is definitely unrealistic for him to give up, which makes him only humbly borrow money from Du Liyu.

"It's fine to borrow money, but you can't talk empty words, right?" Du Liyu said with a smile.

"Didn't I write an IOU?" Du Yuncheng replied with a smile.

"Is it enough to just have an IOU?" Du Liyu asked with a smile.

"Then what do you want?"

"Don't you want to give me some interest?"

Du Yuncheng became a little annoyed when he heard the words: "What? You still want interest? When I lent you money, why didn't you say you would give me interest?"

Du Liyu also said with a stern face: "How much money should I lend you? It's less than 50 in total, right? Do you think I asked for interest on lending you 50? But how much is it now? 200 million! I put this money in There is interest in the bank. When it comes to you, you have made money and I have nothing? In a word, do you want to borrow it? If you don’t, forget it!"

There is no other way, the rich are all uncles now, even if Du Yuncheng is reluctant in his heart, he can only agree to pay the interest.

Seeing that Du Yuncheng agreed, Du Liyu sneered secretly, and said, "I won't say too much, let's calculate it according to the interest on the loan in the bank!"

Du Yuncheng took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

"Then do you plan to write the IOU now, or write it later?"

"We'll talk about it later!"

Du Yuncheng waved his hand. Now that the auction is not over, maybe he can still grab the wool that Chu Chen is looking for. At that time, he may not only make up for the loss of interest, but also earn a fortune, and feel better.

It's just that, although Chu Chen also offered a price for the next few pieces of wool, he didn't add it after adding it a few times. It seemed that he didn't want it at all, which made Du Yuncheng very disappointed.

In a blink of an eye, the auction came to its final moment, and only the piece of wool with a starting price of 50 yuan remained on the scene.Regarding this piece of wool, many people's views were similar to what Liu Sizhe said before, so everyone lacked interest in this piece of wool. After the auctioneer announced the start of the auction, no one bid for half a day.

According to this situation, this piece of wool is likely to be the only piece of wool that failed to be auctioned in this auction, which is why Lu Changshun put this piece of wool in the last auction.

The auctioneer looked around and saw that no one was interested in the piece of wool, so he was about to announce that the auction was over, and some jade merchants sitting at the door also stood up and prepared to leave.

"50!" Chu Chen suddenly said the moment the auctioneer fell.

Now there is a sudden silence, because there is a precedent before, everyone doesn't understand, is Chu Chen optimistic about this piece of wool, or is he going to dig a hole for people to jump into?
