God Level Farm
Chapter 162
Of course, Ma Xiong couldn't be bored enough to care about Xia Ruofei's gossip, but he attached great importance to Xia Ruofei, so he also personally explained that the hotel should do all the services well and report things in time. 1 hour≯≥say <≤<﹤
As for Xia Ruofei's direct dismissal of Blake in the gym, the hotel naturally did not dare to neglect it, and reported it to Ma Xiong immediately, because it was a small conflict after all.
In addition, when Monica took the stage just now, she and Xia Ruofei had eye contact several times, and they smiled and greeted each other. Even Lu You was keenly aware of it, and the matured Ma Xiong naturally saw it clearly.
Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and whispered to Ma Xiong: "Mr. Ma, I have nothing to do with Monica. It's none of my business how Blake is in the limelight. You don't need to waste this money."
Ma Xiong said with a smile: "It's only a few hundred thousand dollars, it's nothing! Xia Sheng, it's useful for me to buy this truffle. Jiahua's top-floor French restaurant is going to hold a truffle feast, and it just comes in handy."
Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and closed his mouth.
He knew that Ma Xiong was just an excuse. It might be true that a French restaurant needs truffles, but he can wait until Xia Ruofei's truffles are out before participating in the auction. There is no need to spend so much money now to fight for this truffle.
But since Ma Xiong decided to participate in the competition, Xia Ruofei also knew that he could not persuade him to quit at this time.
When Blake over there was making an offer from Ma Xiong, the muscles on his face twitched obviously.
He naturally knew Ma Xiong, a world-class rich man. What made him even more nervous was that he followed the voice and saw Xia Ruofei sitting next to Ma Xiong, and the two continued to talk in low voices.
In terms of financial resources, the Black Group is far inferior to the Hengfeng Group, and Black is not the head of the group. It is impossible for him to come up with a high price. If he buys it with far more actual value. This truffle will definitely not be able to explain it when I go back.
But Ma Xiong has no concerns about this. He is the boss of the group. As long as he is willing, even if he spends 100 million US dollars to buy it, no one dares to say anything about him.
Of course, this is just an extreme example, it is naturally impossible for such a situation to occur in reality, and Ma Xiong is not a fool.
"Thanks to Chairman Ma of Hengfeng Group for his generosity! Chairman Ma bid $320,000!" The auctioneer's face turned red with excitement, "Is there anyone else who wants to bid a higher price? If not, this year's largest The truffle will belong to Chairman Ma!"
The expression on Blake's face changed,
His ideological struggle was fierce, and it took a long time before he gritted his teeth and raised the sign, shouting, "$330,000!"
This price is basically the same as the transaction price of the 1.49kg white truffle in o7.
But Ma Xiong did not hesitate at all. He raised his placard as soon as Blake finished speaking, and said lightly, "$350,000!"
With a one-time price increase of $20,000, and at such a high price, Blake immediately returned to his seat like a deflated ball. This price has already exceeded his authority.
And he is very clear that even if he continues to increase the price, if Ma Xiong is determined to buy it, he will not be able to compete.
In fact, it's not that Blake didn't want to increase the price. Of course, the increase was not to buy this truffle, but purely to make Ma Xiong spend more money. But he still didn't have the guts in the end, especially when he saw Xia Ruofei and Ma Xiong whispering, he didn't dare to take any risks. If he gave up as soon as Ma Xiong raised the price, it would really hurt himself.
When the auctioneer saw that Blake had given up the competition, he simply started the countdown.
There is no suspense, this 1.45 kg giant white truffle was bought by Ma Xiong for a sky-high price of 350,000 US dollars.
There was warm applause from the audience, and Ma Xiong also stood up with a smile and waved to the guests behind him.
Monica got up and walked to the front of the stage, and said with a smile, "Thank you to Chairman Ma of Hengfeng Group for your generosity!"
Although Monica thanked Ma Xiong, she looked at Xia Ruofei with a smile that was not a smile.
Xia Ruofei gave her a wry smile.
With the hammer of this sky-high white truffle, the Grasso family's truffle auctions are all over.
Monica then thanked all the guests who participated in the auction, and also previewed several business exchange activities of the Grasso Group in Shencheng in the next two days, and invited everyone to participate-she is the third best candidate of the Grasso family. The heir, of course, did not come to Huaxia just for the auction with a total turnover of only 600,000 to 700,000 US dollars. Grasso Group also arranged other business activities for its China trip.
At the same time, Monica also announced on the spot to donate 5% of the total turnover, which is about 35,000 US dollars, to the Huaxia Charity Foundation, which is also the tradition of the Grasso family.
Although the money is not particularly large, the charity is small and large, and the audience still responded with warm applause.
After the auction, Ma Xiong and others got up and left the grand banquet hall and went to a medium-sized banquet hall of about 2oo square meters on the same floor, where all preparations have been made for the auction of Xia Ruofei's batch of truffles.
All the guests who had been notified in advance also went to the banquet hall one after another—the invitation from Ma Xiong, naturally, everyone would not refuse.
At this moment, Monica walked over quickly.
She first glanced at Xia Ruofei with a smile, and then said to Ma Xiong: "Mr. Ma, I heard that you are going to hold an auction soon. I wonder if I have the honor to participate?"
Ma Xiong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Miss Grasso, to be honest, the auction I prepared for my friend also auctioned truffles. I don't think you need to buy it, right? But if you want to If you participate, we are naturally welcome!"
Monica was stunned for a moment. She obviously didn't expect that the auction would be truffles as well, but she quickly giggled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ma!"
After speaking, she naturally walked side by side with Xia Ruofei and walked towards the medium-sized banquet hall.
Seeing this, Lu You on the side couldn't help frowning slightly, but she lightly bit her lower lip and didn't say anything, just followed silently.
When they came to the medium-sized banquet hall, the guests were seated one after another.
The number of invited guests is about one-third of the previous auction.
When Ma Xiong and Xia Ruofei saw that Blake was also present, they couldn't help but stunned.
However, the two quickly recovered their expressions.
The matter of inviting the guests was arranged by Ma Zhiming. Except for a few people with similar positions in the business world who were greeted by Ma Xiong himself, Ma Zhiming drew up the list based on the economic strength and social status of the other party.
The Black Group is well-known in the global catering industry, and it is not surprising that Black can get an invitation.
In fact, except for Ma Xiong, Xia Ruofei, Ma Zhiming, chef Mark Lawrence of the French restaurant on the top floor, and Monica who just learned about the situation, other people, including Tian Huixin and Lu You, did not know about the event. details.
Ma Xiong and Xia Ruofei looked at each other, and the two walked to the stage together.
