When it came to the finale, Lu Zhongguang's voice also became a little high-pitched: "Before the auction of the last piece of white truffle, I would like to announce very solemnly that a new world record for the weight of a single white truffle has been born! That is, the white truffle on the stage, which weighs 2.75 kilograms!"

Although they had already been mentally prepared, when they heard Lu Zhongguang report the specific weight of this white truffle, the guests present and other ordinary buyers couldn't help but gasp.

At this time, the red silk cloth covering the white truffle had been torn off by Miss Manners, and this giant white truffle, which was larger than a basketball, was completely presented in front of everyone.

With such a large piece of white truffle, the visual effect is quite shocking.

The white truffle is known as the "diamond on the table", and a small piece of white truffle with almost no weight is worth hundreds of dollars.

Blake sat up straight from his seat as well, his eyes shining brightly, staring intently at the white truffle.

He knew that the price of the truffle would not be low, but he was still ready to move, and if he could successfully get the world-record white truffle back, then his previous stupidity would cause much less trouble.

Such a piece of truffle, its own influence has exceeded its economic value, and the Black Group, as the world's top Western food chain brand, needs such a signboard too much.

In fact, not only Blake thought so, but Monica, who was sitting next to Xia Ruofei, also had a brilliant look in her eyes, which must have been extremely exciting.

In the previous auction of several truffles, Monica also tried to quote the price several times, but the bidding was unsuccessful, if the last piece is still unsuccessful, then this trip to Hong Kong Island will be empty-handed.

Of course, in Monica's opinion, this trip to Hong Kong Island is definitely not nothing, and reuniting with Xia Ruofei is the biggest gain, which makes her happier than any truffle she takes.

Stage.

Lu Zhongguang smiled and said: "The auction of this piece of white truffle has officially begun, the old rule, the auction starts at 0 yuan!"

This is already a basic routine, the finale lot directly starts at zero yuan, and there is no need to worry about the unsuccessful auction or the transaction at a very low price, which is the confidence.

As soon as Lu Zhongguang's voice fell, someone immediately made a bid.

Lopis, the shoe king from the United States, took the lead in raising the bidding card and shouted: "$1.5 million!"

Lofes's assets are not much different from Tang He, who also plays a pivotal role in the American business world, and he is a world-class billionaire.

His offer directly made those ordinary buyers give up completely.

The zero-yuan auction is just a gimmick, so many wealthy people with strong economic strength are present, and the white truffle is so rare, the possibility of picking up leaks at a low price does not exist.

There is one more person in the general district who is full of fire in his heart, and he is Blake.

The white truffle had caught his eye.

After Lofes made an offer, he only hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and raised the bidding card, shouting, "$1.55 million!"

Xia Ruofei heard Blake's voice, raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart that this guy really doesn't remember to eat!

Just as he was about to make a bid to suppress Blake, a joking voice came from the other side of the venue: "Mr. Xia, I won't ask you to do it yourself, I'll do it!"

This voice came from the guest area, where some rich and famous people from Hong Kong Island were sitting.

Xia Ruofei was happy when he heard it, and it seemed that his previous words had aroused the common hatred of the rich people on Hong Kong Island.

The person who made the offer was the old gentleman of the Zheng family who had won a piece of white truffle before, and he was also a veteran rich man on Hong Kong Island, with a huge net worth, so he naturally didn't care about the more than one million US dollars.

Blake was so angry that he almost smoked, he didn't think he had done anything today!

In fact, if he had been a little low-key at the beginning and didn't speak in a charity tone when he entered the door, Xia Ruofei might not have done it so obviously.

What's more, the Liang Zi who was married at the beginning of the year still hasn't had an explanation! How can Xia Ruofei be a person who is willing to swallow his anger? If he doesn't meet him, forget it, since the two sides have met in a narrow way, and you are still so dragged, who will you step on if you don't step on it?

Blake raised the sign again with a gloomy face: "$1.66 million!"

"$1.7 million!" was almost seamless, and another offer immediately came out from the wealthy area of Hong Kong Island.

This time, it was Hong Kong Island entertainment tycoon Yang Ruocheng who gave an offer without thinking, and did not give Xia Ruofei a chance to bid at all.

Feng Jing couldn't help but purse her lips and laugh when she saw this scene backstage.

Xia Ruofei showed a smile on his face, and leaned back on the soft seat to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

In terms of economic strength, the Black Group will not be much worse than those rich people here.

However, George Blake's own status in the Blake Group is not too high, and the authority he can mobilize funds is certainly not the same as that of these rich people themselves.

Two consecutive quotations were directly scolded, and Blake also realized that today's loss was decided, and it was impossible to get back to the field.

Of course, he can continue to bid upwards, but there is no point at all, if the bid is too high, all the opponents will stop, then it will be smashed, if the bid is too low, it will have no effect at all.

Even if he called a high price, and then Xia Ruofei continued to offer, and then he didn't accept it, it would cause this piece of white truffle to be auctioned at most.

But Xia Ruofei has already said that a private small auction will be held in the evening, and if this record-breaking white truffle is placed in a small auction, it will attract more people to participate.

Xia Ruofei's loss was nothing more than 10% of the donation, and some auction commissions.

For Xia Ruofei, who is making a lot of money today, this is nothing at all.

After thinking all of this out, Blake sat back in his seat like a deflated ball, disheartened and disheartened, he had given up the bid.

At this time, the battle for this white truffle has just begun.

It is said that this white truffle is not much heavier than the previous auctions - the last white truffle that was just auctioned weighed 2.53 kilograms, and the final transaction price was only 1.63 million US dollars.

But this white truffle has the halo of a world record!

And this is a piece of truffle for today's finale, and there are many rich people present who have not yet gained anything, and many factors have caused the price of this truffle to rise.

Monica beside Xia Ruofei was also a little unable to sit still, she hesitated for a moment before holding up the sign and said crisply: "$1.75 million!"

"Ms. Grasso bid $1.75 million!" Lu Zhongguang immediately said, "Now the price has come to $1.75 million, this is a world record-setting superb white truffle, a unique piece ......of white truffle in the world!

Lu Zhongguang's words are very tempting, which is also the most important embodiment of whether a professional auctioneer is worth money - a successful auctioneer must be very good at psychology, good at grasping the psychology of buyers, and using language and body movements to mobilize everyone's desire to buy.

Lu Zhongguang is clearly the master of it.

But Xia Ruofei secretly laughed in his heart, he prepared four batches of truffles, and the finale of each batch was a giant white truffle, and the weight of the single body gradually increased.

In other words, in every truffle auction of Taoyuan Company this season, there will be a finale lot that breaks the world record.

Of course, the buyers present did not know.

The price of $1.75 million itself is not particularly high, so Monica's offer was quickly refreshed by the higher price.

$1,800,000!

$1.88 million!

$1.9 million!

In a few moments, the price of this white truffle broke through the $2 million mark for an unprecedented time!

The bidder was a wealthy man from Romania, Nikolai.

Nikolai's company sells fertilizers and farm machinery, which may sound a bit unremarkable, but it is this humble industry that has brought Nikolai billions of euros, and he has been the richest man in Romania for several years.

Two million dollars is obviously a hurdle, it's not that these rich people can't afford to pay, it's just that the price is close to the value limit of this truffle, and it would be a bit uneconomical if the bid was higher.

After the price came to two million dollars, Monica could only sigh helplessly and give up the competition.

Xia Ruofei saw that Monica was a little lost, and couldn't help but lean her head over and whispered: "Monica, don't worry! I won't let you go home empty-handed......"

Monica's beautiful eyes suddenly radiated brilliance, and she turned her head suddenly, almost mouth-to-mouth with Xia Ruofei.

The two quickly separated a little.

Monica covered her mouth with her hand and asked in a low voice, "Natsu, do you still have truffles on hand?"

Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "If someone else wants it, I will definitely not have it, but you are different, so ......"

Monica was pleasantly surprised: "Can the quality of the truffles be up to the level of today's auction?"

She didn't dare to expect that the finale white truffle would be so shocking to the world, as long as it could reach about two kilograms, or even lighter, as long as the truffle quality was good, then her task would be successfully completed.

Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Don't worry! Let them fight for this truffle! I left you a good ......."

Monica's eyes fluttered, and she glanced at Xia Ruofei with a smile: "Then I'll look for you at night to get it?"

Xia Ruofei's heart was full of charm, and he said again and again: "This is also what I want to say, I'll wait for you......"

Monica pursed her lips and smiled, nodding slightly.

While the two were chatting, the price of the finale white truffle hit a new high.

Guo Hongjiang, a real estate tycoon from Hong Kong Island, directly quoted a price of 2.1 million US dollars, which increased this price record by a large margin.

Guo Hongjiang's net worth is close to 20 billion US dollars, and he is also the top super-rich person on Hong Kong Island.

He didn't make a move just now, and even when the battle for this finale white truffle was so fierce in front of him, he didn't say anything.

Until the price broke through $2 million and the upward momentum stagnated, he made a bid without warning, and increased the price by $100,000 in one go, obviously aiming to win.

Romanian tycoon Nikolai frowned slightly, thought for two or three seconds, and raised the sign again: "2.15 million US dollars!"

"2.2 million!" Guo Hongjiang didn't even bother to raise the sign, and immediately followed Nikolai's offer and quoted his price, without even a second of hesitation.

He sat in the middle of the first row, and the famous rich man Kwok was well known on Hong Kong Island, so Lu Zhongguang immediately confirmed the price.

"2.2 million US dollars!" Lu Zhongguang's voice also trembled a little, "Every quotation is now creating a new record! The transaction price record of a single piece of white truffle will be greatly improved, and it may be difficult to break it for a long time in the future! Is there anyone else who is willing to offer a higher price?"

Nikolai hesitated for a long time, and several times he was ready to raise the sign, and then put it down again.

As for the other buyers, they basically gave up after the price reached $2 million.

Lu Zhongguang saw that no one was bidding, and he was slightly disappointed in his heart, but this disappointment was also fleeting, today's auction was successful enough, especially the last piece of white truffle, which shone all over the audience.

"$2.2 million for the first time...... $2.2 million for the second ...... $2.2 million for the third time!

As the auction hammer fell, the last piece of white truffle was finally sold for a sky-high price of $2.2 million!

There were bursts of applause in the auction hall, especially in the area where the Hong Kong Island tycoons were sitting.

In the end, this top white truffle flower landed on Hong Kong Island's wealthy, and everyone felt honored.

Everyone congratulated Guo Hongjiang one after another, and Guo Hongjiang, who was nearly sixty years old, also stood up and waved to everyone with a smile.

The first auction of truffles this season, although there were a few episodes made by Blake in it, was quite successful overall.

90 kilograms of truffles, except for Xia Ruofei and Blake's "fighting method", which he photographed, the other truffles earned Xia Ruofei a total of 17.644 million US dollars!

In this way, all the truffles harvested this season can bring Xia Ruofei tens of millions of dollars in income.

That's a staggering number.

Lu Zhongguang thanked all the buyers, and then returned to the backstage after completing his task.

Dong Jiajun, the manager of the auction house, walked up to the stage with a smile with the microphone and said: "Thank you very much to all the guests and media friends who are here! Thank you very much for the great support of Taoyuan Company! Without Taoyuan Company's high-quality truffles, there would be no successful auction today! Next, let us invite Mr. Xia Ruofei, chairman of Taoyuan Company, to come to the stage to speak a few words for you!"

There was a sudden burst of warm applause in the venue, but after Xia Ruofei heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment-didn't he say that Feng Jing would go up?
