Chapter 176: The dust settles

　　 "Thirty thousand topaz lemons, starting at 150,000." When the auctioneer quoted the price, it also meant that the competition for topaz had already begun.
　　 At the beginning, many small fruit vendors made bids, and they were surrounded by twos and threes, trying to eat the topaz from Kunyang in a group.
　　 But when the auction price rose to 300,000, many small businesses took the lead to withdraw from the competition. In addition to a few people from the Tongcheng Fruit Industry Chamber of Commerce, two larger fruit industry companies continued to follow the price.
　　 "550,000, will anyone increase the price."
　　 "600,000, Mr. 3 bid 600,000."
Knowing that the price of 600,000 was made by the people of the Copper City Fruit Industry Chamber of Commerce, the other two fruit industry owners gave up the bidding. After all, several companies of the Copper City Fruit Industry Chamber of Commerce have the largest warehousing, logistics and channels in Copper City. 600,300,000, the unit price of this lemon is as high as 20 yuan, the two bidding companies are not sure that they can sell this batch of lemons at a higher price.
　　 After watching their rivals withdraw one by one, Li Wei and Jia Fei looked at each other and smiled. It was obvious that they thought they had a chance to win.
　　Who knew that someone suddenly joined the auction at this time.
　　 "700,000, Mr. 2 bid 700,000!"
　　 When the auctioneer reported the price, Li Wei and Jia Fei found the number 2 who was holding the plaque for the first time, but the opponent was very face-to-face, obviously not in the copper city fruit industry circle.
　　 "750,000!"
　　 "Mr. No. 3 gave a price of 750,000. Is there a higher price."
"800 000."
After 　　, the price given on the 2nd has been firmly pressed against the Chamber of Commerce, and Li Wei gritted his teeth and gave a price of 1 million.
　　 But then on the 2nd, at the price of 1.05 million, Li Wei completely gave up.
　　 "What is the origin of this No. 2? The price is so high. A lemon is 33 yuan. This is only the cost price. What profit can there be?"
　　In Li Wei's view, it is simply incredible. After all, with such a high price, the profit margin in the later period is too small.
　　 The bosses of Copper City Fruit Industry did not know that Kunyang had already reduced overseas orders for this auction, which also caused the price of topaz to rise overseas.
If topaz has not been used before, the role of lemon in seafood may not be so prominent, but once the topaz on the market decreases, many businesses who have not snapped up topaz return to ordinary lemons, the problem will begin to emerge. Up.
　　 Local people who are used to squeezing lemon juice on seafood suddenly find that the quality of seafood in various izakayas has plummeted.
　　 So many high-end izakayas still can only buy high-priced topaz in order to ensure the quality of their stores.
　　 And the topaz used with seafood in the store has also begun to use thinner materials. The original one-quarter topaz with seafood has gradually become one-sixth, and even a thin slice.
　　 But the local people still buy it. After all, this is topaz, and some ordinary lemons may not be worth seeing if you give you a whole.
　　 The current Okada Toru's eyes are full of excitement, after all, this batch of topaz should be his own.
　　 "Yamazaki-kun, you did a good job this time. After you go back..." Okada Toruichi hasn't finished talking about Yamazaki-kun's promise, and someone in the corner bid again.
　　 "1.2 million!"
　　 Not only Okada Toruichi was surprised, but the owners of Copper City Fruit Industry were also shocked. A lemon for 40 yuan! If you say it before, no one will believe it.
　　 "1.3 million!" Okada Tetsuichi was bound to get topaz, so he didn't think too much about it and continued to increase the price.
　　 "1.35 million!"
　　 "Mr. No. 1 bid 1.35 million again, is there anyone..."
　　 "1.4 million!"
　　 The prices on both sides are very tight, and the quotation time is also very short. Obviously, both sides attach great importance to topaz.
　　 Even the bosses of the Copper City Fruit Industry Chamber of Commerce have become spectators, and the other colleagues suddenly felt that their mentality was balanced.
　　 So they looked like they were watching a badminton game, their heads were constantly spinning between No. 1 and No. 2, and after one quote came out, they looked at the other side again.
　　 As the auction continues, the price of topaz has soared to 60 yuan, which means that the total price of this batch of topaz has reached a sky-high price of 1.8 million.
　　If it is in the antique or art industry, this price may not be surprising, but this is an auction of fruit. Such a high price is actually for a batch of lemons, which is simply incredible.
"1.85 million!" As Howard quoted a price of 1.85 million, Okada Toruichi seemed to hesitate. After all, if this batch of lemons were to be brought back, it would be far beyond the price of 60 yuan per piece, including transportation costs. Given the market price, he has almost no profit at all.
　　 Before, he would quote a price of 1.8 million yuan, and only wanted to guarantee the supply of topaz for the first time. Later, with the help of topaz, many seafood transactions under his hands could also use topaz to open the market.
　　 But this 50,000 yuan became the last straw that overwhelmed Okada Toruichi, so he gave up.
　　 After seeing Toruichi Okada no longer bidding, Howard suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and this batch of topaz was finally his.
Howard’s identity is very simple. He is the agent of Wutong oysters in the United States. He brought a batch of oysters he represented when he attended a banquet with friends. Since he did not bring lemons, he asked the chef Renault who was making desserts. I borrowed a few lemons.
　　Who would have thought that the already high-quality oysters would actually have a more plump and sweet taste with the addition of lemon~EbookFREE.me~ This surprised Howard.
　　 So he found Renault and asked about the origin of these lemons.
　　 If you want to say that the businessman present can most bear the high price of this lemon, it must be Howard. The reason why he bought topaz lemons is very simple. Like Toru Okada, he sells his oysters better.
　　As the auctioneer dropped the hammer, all the dust settled.
　　 "Unexpectedly, that little girl Qian Lina is so cruel, she actually called us to show us such a good show."
　　 "How can I let you know if you don't call you, how much less did you make? How about it, right?"
　　 "It's like you know your eyes and beads, how much did your topaz sell for?"
　　 "Forget it, don't mention it, it's boring to expose each other's scars."
While the bosses of the fruit industry were sighing, many people were eyeing the two old ladies of Jinlanzhihua. After all, they still have 2000 lemons bought at a low price in their hands, even if it’s 50 yuan each. It is sold at a price of, and there is still a lot of room for manipulation.
　　 "Why, our old lady looks so cheating, isn't it?" Huang Fang rolled his eyes to several businessmen.
　　 "Forget it, don't care about you, we have to go back and make lemon cookies for the kids, so that your boss will not delay making money."
　　 In fact, the biggest winners on the scene may be the two old ladies. After all, they bought a batch of lemons at a low price and watched a good show. The last two old ladies wanted to say: This money girl and Xiao Zhou are really bad.
