rebirth of cataclysm

"Bosses, you are welcome to attend this auction at my house. Once again, my family and I would like to express our deepest gratitude to you for coming." Hu Mingchen walked behind the small black table at the entrance, held the table with both hands and said,

Afterwards, he bowed to the bosses opposite him in a serious manner.

A big table was originally prepared in advance, but Hu Mingchen was young and not tall enough, so the big table could cover most of him. As a last resort, he borrowed this small coffee table from Hu Mingyi's house so that Hu Mingchen could relax.

If Hu Mingchen were to bend down in a formal occasion, he would definitely win some applause, whether the applause was just out of etiquette or sincere.

However, when Hu Mingchen straightened up, he found that there were no faults in the businesses, and some of the villagers watching the excitement around him still pursed their lips and laughed.

"Everyone, don't laugh, don't laugh. Haha, if you disturb him like this, it will be difficult for him to continue talking." Jiang Yucai smiled and waved to everyone.

Hu Mingchen was so sweaty. He asked them to maintain order, and my mother had the nerve to tell others not to laugh until she started laughing. Is she trying to stop others from laughing, or encouraging everyone to laugh with practical actions?

When Jiang Yucai said this, not only was the scene unstoppable, but Xu Ming and the others also started laughing.

Hu Mingchen, who was an auctioneer for the first time, stood there, too embarrassed to laugh or continue.

Hu Jianjun couldn't stand it any longer, so he stood up and pulled Jiang Yucai back, bowed to everyone, and then the scene calmed down.

"Haha, it's our first time doing such an activity. We all have no experience. It's normal to laugh. That's what it's like anyway." Everyone stopped laughing, and Hu Mingchen said with a smile. He was covering up his embarrassment with a smile.

.

No one laughed out loud this time. This was serious business and it had entered a substantive stage. Even if you couldn't help but look at Hu Mingchen's little appearance, you just pursed your lips and snickered.

"I think everyone knows the purpose of my family's auction this time, which is to find a good buyer for my dried ginger. All the bosses who have been here have been to my house and are interested in my dried ginger.

.To be honest, this is the first time for my family to run the ginger business and we have little experience. You can all be said to be seniors. What about my family?

It is not easy to offend anyone. In order to avoid the situation of selling to this company and offending that company, we can only adopt this method and let everyone talk face to face. This principle is the same as in all businesses. Who pays for it?

If the price is high, my family will sell all 4,470 kilograms of dried ginger to him." Hu Mingchen paused and continued.

"Young man, wait a minute, I have something to ask first. If you decide to buy it, do you have to pay the price in one lump sum today?" Boss Liu interrupted Hu Mingchen and asked.

"The general rule of doing business is, of course, that the payment for the goods must be paid in full, with one hand paying and the other hand delivering the goods." Hu Mingchen replied.

"But what if a few high-ranking people can't come up with so much money at once?" Boss Liu continued to ask.

"If it were other people, that situation might happen, but you are all big bosses, and it is impossible not to have this small amount of payment, so I think it does not exist." Hu Mingchen did not speak harshly, but he was flattering.

When the hat is brought out, its meaning is naturally self-evident.

Hu Mingchen doesn't do that kind of thing on credit. Even if he calculates a few slightly lower prices, he can't be in debt.

You know, it's easy to get debts but hard to get money. If you allow credit, if it goes wrong, it will lead to a series of troubles and disputes. Originally, cooperation to make money is a good thing, but if it makes you look ugly because of debt disputes, that's not good.

Seeing that Boss Liu stopped asking, Hu Mingchen continued: "My ginger, as all the bosses and fellow villagers here know, is the best ginger after careful selection. For this reason, my ginger

Ginger is also more expensive than everyone else. In this regard,

There must be nothing to doubt. In addition, my dried ginger needs to be washed three times to make it absolutely clean, and I bake it with all my heart to ensure that every piece of dried ginger is fresh and refreshing." When selling things, Hu Mingchen is naturally indispensable.

I want to praise my own dried ginger.

No one thought Hu Mingchen's praise was exaggerated. These bosses had seen the goods, and some of the villagers around them helped wash the ginger. Some people sold their ginger to him, so they naturally knew what they were doing.

"In order to ensure that the goods are in the right place, you can also inspect the goods first." At this point, Hu Mingchen waved behind him.

Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao each came out with a small dustpan. Each dustpan contained seven or eight kilograms of good-looking dried ginger. The two timidly carried the dried ginger and walked to Wang Chengwu and the others, stopping in front of them.

They can taste it up close.

"The ginger piled in the house is no different from the two dustpans. You can rest assured that it is no different from what you have seen before. Do you have any objection to this point? If so, my family

You can take out all the dried ginger and open it for everyone to examine." After they had seen it almost, Hu Mingchen continued.

Those people not only inspected the goods with their eyes, but also took some into their hands and pinched them. Some even took a bite with their mouths to try. After all, goods worth tens of thousands of dollars cannot be careless.

"No need, as long as these products are not specially selected, they will be fine. I have seen your products and they are similar to these." Boss Chen said.

Someone's words set the tone, and it's hard for others to say anything. Besides, they have indeed inspected the dried ginger from Hu Mingchen's family in advance, and it is indeed of good quality. Anyway, it is better than the ones they collected before.

Come on grade.

"In this case, let's stop talking nonsense and get down to the real topic. Let me talk about the rules of the auction first, so that everyone will not be confused later. The auction base price of my dried ginger is two yuan, and each increase in price is at least 10 cents.

, as long as someone quotes and reminds you three times, don’t

If there is no objection, let’s make the deal. We will pay the money and deliver the goods with one hand. For the convenience of the bosses, my family can promise to deliver these dried gingers to the street or highway for delivery.” Hu Mingchen’s so-called rules were all learned from TV.

It's simple, but the meaning is clear and clear.

"Why is it only two yuan?"

"It seems like someone paid five yuan last time. Why has the price dropped?"

"It's probably because it's hard to sell, so that's why I did this."

"This price is too cheap. If I had known this, I would have borrowed some money to participate."

I heard that Hu Mingchen had set the starting price at two yuan. The bosses didn't say anything, but the onlookers around them started talking about it.

Regarding those discussions, Hu Mingchen filtered them out and pretended not to hear them.

Many of them don't understand what an auction is. The high or low reserve price of an auction doesn't mean much at all. The key lies in the seller's acceptance level. If it is lower than their acceptance level, as long as there is competition, the price will naturally go up. If it is higher than their acceptance level, the price will naturally go up.

To their degree of acceptance, the only way is to pass the auction.

If Hu Mingchen said the base price was ten yuan, those people might just get up and leave without even thinking about it.

"Okay, I've said everything that needs to be said. If there are no doubts, let's get started. Four thousand four hundred and seventy kilograms of the best quality dried ginger, with a base price of two yuan. If anyone wants to have it, let's tell them publicly.

"One sound." Hu Mingchen glanced around with a smile, then turned his attention to the bosses and said.

"I want it, I'm willing to buy it for two yuan." As soon as Hu Mingchen finished speaking, the chubby boss Liu said loudly.

"I want it too, I'm willing to give it two yuan," Wang Chengwu followed.

"If you don't want two yuan, I will give you two yuan." Xu Ming agreed.

Hu Mingchen almost wanted to hit his head against the wall. What the hell do you mean? Everyone has two yuan, so why should I hold an auction? I might as well sell it before. For two yuan, I might as well sell it to myself.

You have to increase the price. Don’t you understand that the auction has to increase the price? What a bunch of irritating rubes.

Fortunately, there are people who are not uncouth, otherwise Hu Mingchen would have to pause and explain the rules.

"I'll give you two yuan and two." Boss Zhang raised his hand and said.

"Then I'll pay two yuan and two, I want it." Boss Liu glanced at Boss Zhang and then said loudly to Hu Mingchen.

"Boss Liu, they said two yuan and two, you can't say this price anymore. If you want it, you have to add more money to boss Zhang's price, such as two yuan and three, such as two and four. Otherwise, you two

They cost two yuan each. Who are they selling to? To you? No one can tell.

Well, whatever the price is, Boss Zhang gets it first, even if it’s two yuan and two, Boss Zhang gets it first.” Hu Mingchen was so sweaty that he wanted to pinch someone’s neck, but unfortunately he couldn’t do that, so he could only quickly explain it in a supplementary way to avoid the trouble later.

It would be really crazy if people follow up exactly as they are.

"Oh, that's what you mean, then I'll pay you two yuan and three yuan, two yuan and three yuan." Boss Liu smiled reservedly, waved his hand and raised the price boldly.

"Old Liu, if you pay two yuan and three cents, I will pay two yuan and three cents." Wang Chengwu looked at Boss Liu and said.

Oh my god, give me a bolt of lightning and kill me. What the hell is this? Why did you get such a thing?

If I add points like this, it won't be long before I reach my ideal price.

Are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid? Didn’t we explain it in advance? The last price increase was at least 10 cents. Did you get mosquitoes in your ears when you were studying? With this ability of understanding, the teacher is still not allowed to buy a piece of tofu and kill him after hearing this.

.

Hu Mingchen was depressed to death, but it was not entirely the fault of Boss Liu and Wang Chengwu. Although they had been doing business for many years, their cultural level was really good. Among these buyers, except for Boss Zhang, the questions asked by others were...

Stay in elementary school.

In addition, since I have never participated in or experienced the so-called auction, I will naturally think that it is similar to bargaining on the street.
