At this moment, Xia Ruofei felt the phone vibrate.

He took it out of his pocket and looked at it, Feng Jing sent a WeChat message: Chairman, you have become the focus of everyone just now, you should do this work by yourself! "Sacrificing" you is better than "sacrificing" both of us, okay?

This message is followed by a few snickering emojis.

Xia Ruofei couldn't help but smile bitterly: This is to let me out!

But everyone was applauding, and Dong Jiajun on the stage kept signaling to him that Xia Ruofei had to go up even if he was catching ducks on the shelves.

Fortunately, he has been used to seeing big scenes in the past two years, and he can be calm and calm even in front of a big leader like Song Lao, so there is no problem of stage fright.

Xia Ruofei put his phone on silent, then stood up and walked towards the stage while buttoning the first button of his suit.

Taking the microphone from Dong Jiajun's hand, Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "There was a little episode in today's auction, but the overall effect is very good.

Then Xia Ruofei "shamelessly" began to promote Taoyuan company: "Our company is specialized in high-end agricultural and sideline products, pure Chinese medicine cosmetics, high-end Chinese herbal medicine enterprises, the company was established at the beginning of the determination of the idea of taking the boutique route, I believe that friends who understand our company are clear, in the past two years we have launched Taoyuan brand vegetables, fruits, abalone and truffles, etc., all of which are the top quality, not long ago our company's jade skin cream in a short period of time to create a number of sales miracles......"

Xia Ruofei spoke on stage for four or five minutes, but everyone didn't find it boring.

Some people may have participated in the last auction of the best abalone, and some people may be using Jade Skin Cream, but many people don't know that these recent famous products are from the same mainland company.

After Xia Ruofei's concise introduction, many people couldn't help but feel shocked.

With so many products, any one of them can become the fist products that support a company, but this Taoyuan company seems to have no end, and it is launched one after another.

Even the world's richest people, who are worth billions or tens of billions of dollars, have a strong interest in Taoyuan Company.

As leaders in the business world, they are naturally well aware that the potential of such a company is almost limitless.

Perhaps the current scale of Taoyuan Company is still insignificant compared to their company, but what will happen in the future is difficult for anyone to predict.

To borrow the words of a great man, Taoyuan Company is like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, which is rising!

Xia Ruofei didn't take up too much time, he knew the truth that things must be opposed, saying too much would cause others to be bored, and in the end, what the news media reported would only be the most essential dry goods.

So he just stopped "praising himself" and said with a smile: "I was going to hold another private auction tonight, but someone is still interesting, and now I only have a piece of white truffle on hand, so it seems that there is no need to hold another auction......"

Everyone couldn't help but smile knowingly, and many people turned their heads to look at Blake.

Blake sat in his seat with a gloomy face, his eyes staring at Xia Ruofei on the stage, his eyes extremely resentful.

This beam is finished, but Xia Ruofei doesn't care.

He continued: "So I decided that the last truffle would be auctioned here......! I will donate all the proceeds of the final auction to the Hong Kong Island Charity Federation! I hope that everyone will bid enthusiastically, this is also a good deed! Now I will return the stage to Mr. Lu, and he will preside over this final charity auction!"

The audience immediately burst into warm applause, and many people were praising Xia Ruofei's charity act - this piece of white truffle is worth at least more than 200,000 US dollars, and it is still very commendable to donate it all in one go.

Media reporters are also working hard to write about it, and it seems that this detail should also be reported in detail at the right time.

Blake was even more jealous and hateful -- all the good things were taken by Xia Ruofei, and it was simply fame and fortune! Although he paid the price of more than 200,000 US dollars, the truffle that the two of them had raised the price and finally smashed on Blake's hand made Xia Ruofei earn hundreds of thousands of dollars more! He made no less money, and even earned at least 500,000 US dollars more, and finally got a good reputation.

And Blake himself, who lost his wife and soldiers, became the biggest joke of this auction.

In everyone's eyes, Blake is simply a complete clown.

Xia Ruo took two steps in the direction of the Taikou and stopped, picked up the microphone again and said, "By the way, there is one more thing I almost forgot to say." Our Taoyuan company and Hong Kong Island Hengfeng Industry has reached a strategic cooperation agreement, in the future our company's top ingredients, Chinese medicinal materials and some other precious products, will be auctioned in cooperation with Hengfeng Auction House, I hope you will continue to support us, support Hengfeng Auction House!"

Xia Ruofei paused, then smiled a little mysteriously and said, "For example, the best abalone from the last auction, or the top-quality truffles like today...... In short, please remember one sentence, you can buy the world's top ingredients and Chinese medicinal materials from Taoyuan Company in Hengfeng Auction House! For specific news, please pay attention to Taoyuan Company or the official website of Hengfeng Auction House!

After speaking, Xia Ruofei handed over the microphone to the staff at the entrance of the stage, walked off the stage with confident steps, and returned to his seat and sat down.

Xia Ruofei's last words were also discussed with Ma Xiong, such a top auction is easy to form a brand effect, and Hengfeng Group is indeed an excellent partner, which is also very beneficial to both parties, so in the future, such as top abalone, top truffles and so on, these things that need to be auctioned, if nothing else, Xia Ruofei will choose Hengfeng Auction House as the first partner.

After listening to Xia Ruofei's words, many people's hearts suddenly became very hot.

You must know that many people are empty-handed today, there is no way, there are more monks and less porridge, and the people who come to participate in the auction are basically the elites of the high-end catering industry, or the rich who love truffles very much, Xia Ruofei's words are almost a clear statement, today's truffle auction is not the last, there will be a second and third truffle picking season in this truffle picking season......

For those who are secretly lost, this is great news!

Therefore, the applause this time is also more and more enthusiastic.

After Xia Ruofei stepped down, Lu Zhongguang, who had just drunk a few sips of water backstage, returned to the stage.

The auction of the last truffle was still presided over by him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's meet again!" Lu Zhongguang made a little joke, and then went straight to the point, "Entrusted by Mr. Xia, we will add a piece of truffle to the auction below, this piece of white truffle weighing 1.12 kilograms, the starting price is 100,000 US dollars! Although everyone already knows about it, I still need to remind you that Mr. Xia will donate the full amount of the auction proceeds of this piece of white truffle to the Hong Kong Island Charity Federation! Now, everyone can bid!"

"$150,000!"

"$180,000!"

"$200,000!"

"$230,000!"

......

As soon as Lu Zhongguang's words fell, the quotations rang out one after another, and he didn't even have time to repeat the price.

The auction of this truffle was much more enthusiastic than when it first appeared, and it quickly broke through the last "normal price" at the previous auction - it was called for $210,000 at the time, and then with Blake's sign, the price became extremely unreasonable.

On the one hand, this is the last truffle, and the threshold is much lower than those over two kilograms, so buyers who have not harvested it before are also bidding.

On the other hand, the auction of this truffle is of a charitable nature, and the final buyer also contributes to charity, and it can be in the news, so everyone's enthusiasm for buying is naturally very different.

In the end, the white truffle was sold for $320,000, which was far more than the actual value.

The one who won it was Nikolai, a Romanian billionaire who had previously participated in the grand truffle auction.

Nikolai can be said to have found nothing before, although this truffle is only 1.12 kilograms, but it can be photographed and talked about, so it is not empty-handed.

And he can also win a good reputation for charity, so after the bid was successful, Nikolai was also very happy, and stood up to express his gratitude to the people around him who congratulated him.

Except for the white truffle that was donated to the charity of Hong Kong Island, all the other truffles sold for a total of $17.644 million.

Xia Ruofei insisted on paying auction commissions according to the market, including 10% commission, 3% withholding tax and 1% insurance premiums and catalogues and other miscellaneous expenses, Xia Ruofei's net income exceeded 15 million US dollars.

Xia Ruofei did not have to participate in the next delivery of the lot and some other finishing work, Feng Jing's team and the team of Hengfeng Auction House would naturally handle it properly.

Xia Ruofei followed Ma Xiong to the lounge next to the auction hall - although he really wanted to stay with Monica, but there were many people at the scene, and Ma Xiong also wanted to introduce him to some celebrities on Hong Kong Island, so he could only gesture to Monica with his eyes, and then left the auction hall first.

At noon, Ma Xiong would host a banquet at the Hengfeng Realm Hotel to entertain his old friends, and it was not yet lunchtime, so everyone was arranged in this lounge.

When Ma Xiong led Xia Ruofei into the door, there were already many people chatting in the lounge with red wine glasses.

"Mr. Ma and Mr. Xia, the two of you are fame and fortune today!"

"Congratulations, the auction was a great success!"

"What a hero out of a young man! Xia Sheng makes us old people very admired!"

Many people greeted them warmly.

Ma Xiong also smiled and introduced Xia Ruofei separately.

Guo Hongjiang, a Hong Kong Island real estate tycoon, and Zheng Jianian, a wealthy man who bid very actively at the auction today, were all present - they are rich at this level, and things like the delivery of lots are naturally done by the people below.

Guo Hongjiang, Zheng Jiannian and others were also very enthusiastic about Xia Ruofei.

Especially Mr. Zheng, he held Xia Ruofei's hands and said: "Xia Sheng, today you have given us Chinese people a long face! Those foreign devils saw the best truffles of our Chinese people, and they all seemed to have seen ghosts!"

"You're so flattering!" Xia Ruofei said politely.

"Hahaha!" Guo Hongjiang also laughed heartily, "I wanted to participate in the abalone auction last time, but unfortunately the company didn't take care of it because of some small things! Fortunately, I didn't miss this truffle auction!"

Ma Xiong quipped on the side: "Guo Dong, didn't you miss it? The biggest white truffle in the finale was all in your pocket, and even I was red-eyed!"

Guo Hongjiang glanced at Ma Xiong and said, "Ma Dong, you have such a good relationship with Mr. Xia, if you want truffles, you still need to grab truffles from us at the auction?"

Ma Xiong laughed and said, "Who would have too many good truffles?"

"Okay, you're a fourth! When you were young, you were like this, insatiable!" Guo Hongjiang scolded with a smile.

Xia Ruofei could see that the personal relationship between the real estate tycoon and Ma Xiong was also very good, and the tone of their voices was very casual, and they looked like old friends for many years.

Ma Xiong said to Xia Ruofei with a smile: "Xia Sheng, you can get close to Guo Dong, he is not only the boss of the real estate industry on Hong Kong Island, but also the director of the Hong Kong Island Jockey Club!

Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be slightly moved when he heard this.

The Hong Kong Island Jockey Club is one of the world's largest speed horse racing operators, and it is also an institution approved by the SAR government to legally operate horse lottery, and the entire Jockey Club is under the control of the Board of Directors, which consists of 12 directors, each of whom is a very prestigious celebrity on Hong Kong Island.

Guo Hongjiang smiled slightly: "If Mr. Xia likes horse racing, we can communicate more......

"I don't know much about horse racing. Xia Ruofei said half-jokingly.

Ma Xiong said with a smile: "Guo Dong, although Xia Sheng doesn't particularly know horse racing, if the horses have any health problems, he may be able to help a lot!"

Guo Hongjiang raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh?

Ma Xiong laughed and said: "I don't know if Xia Shengyang has ever raised a horse, but his medical skills are too clever, and it can be said that he is superb!

Xia Ruofei and Guo Hongjiang invariably showed a wry smile.

"Ma Dong, what are you doing to entertain me?" Guo Hongjiang said angrily.

Xia Ruofei also smiled bitterly: "Mr. Ma, I studied Chinese medicine, not a veterinarian......
