The two have entered the auction site. The layout of the site is quite good. There are not only cold tables, but also many waiters holding drinks shuttling between the guests. At least people don''t feel that this is the desolate West.
There were three states in the West. At first, there were only two. Later, because the state where Dooling is now, that is, the eight cities bordering the south central part of the Empire and not far away, thought he was not from the west, there was one more state in the west after a referendum was held. Nevertheless, they still didn''t take off the name of the west, but they changed from the ownership of one state to the ownership of another state. But these eight cities think they have won. At least they are farther away from the real West, aren''t they?
After finding a seat to sit down, the guide waiter sent the number plate to Turin and Federer. The way of raising the card is still used here, and Federer is also introducing some guests who have been present to Turin.
"The guy over there... Wearing a white suit and a red tie, he is the agent of kingdees metal mining company in the West..." fedley raised his chin. Turin followed his eyes and saw a middle-aged man drinking and laughing with others. He looked a little fussy.
Jintisi metal mining group is the second largest non-ferrous metal mining group in the Empire. The business scope of this group company has developed from the initial metal mining to all walks of life. It is said that they have also set up a pharmaceutical laboratory to develop into the pharmaceutical industry. Their main economic pillar is the rich minerals in the West and the mineral veins they hold in their hands. There is a grapevine news. It is said that the ore veins they took will not be developed immediately. Most of them will be sealed for several years, more than ten years or even decades before they begin to dig.
The purpose of this is to effectively control the stock of non-ferrous metals in the market, ensure their total reserves, and save costs. After all, mining itself requires a lot of money, and the refined metal ingots need to be transported and stored, as well as a lot of money. It''s better to put it there for the time being and mine it when necessary, which can save a lot of money.
"Their style is very overbearing. As long as it is what they like, they will try their best to get it. No one is willing to deal with them on the mineral issue." fedley finally commented and looked at another woman, "That woman is the agent of Orville metal group in the West. You have to be careful about her. I think it''s the biggest flattery to describe her with thorny roses."
Turin''s eyes turned to this, which was severely "praised" by Federer The woman looked like she was only in her early thirties. She had a good figure. She was wearing a black purple dress. Her white skin formed a strong contrast with dark clothes, making her look very, very white. Her facial features were also very exquisite and three-dimensional. It can be said that she was a very beautiful woman and had a very special temperament.
When it comes to this woman, Federer''s words are obviously much more than when introducing the agent of kingdees. He told Turin that this woman''s name is Sandra. Before that, Orville''s agent in the West was rectified because of some problems. It is said that this woman did it alone. Her purpose is to obtain the position of agent in the West with special status and great power. After she took office After that, Orville''s sphere of influence in the West expanded by 17%, and more than six mining areas were cleaned, which had a direct relationship with this woman.
In the west, people gave her a good nickname, scarlet kiss, which is another name for a unique predatory spider in the West. This spider is as big as a quail, never makes a web, hides near the water source and preys on all creatures who come to drink water. The most remarkable feature is its two blood red teeth. This spider has strong toxicity, even if it is an adult Wall wolves can''t survive a bite for five minutes. In the past, there were often news that humans were poisoned.
People use such a nickname to replace her original name because her style is really a little scary.
This is a woman with beautiful appearance but extremely poisonous within ten years!
The last person to be introduced by Federer was Knight''s second son, Henry.
Knight is the most famous steel tycoon in the Empire. In the annual summary report of various industries on Cherith street last year, Knight''s "Knight Steel Group" Sales in the field of iron and steel account for 67% of the whole industry. Although the total sales have not been accurately disclosed, many evaluation organizations have given sales of no less than 100 million, which once again shocked the whole metal industry. Some people believe that knight Steel Group has been able to represent the iron and steel industry of the Empire and is the wind vane of the iron and steel industry of the Empire 。
In addition to the development and construction brought by the economic recovery of the Empire, the total market value of Knight Steel Group will continue to increase until it is feared.
In fact, Dooling has something to do with Nate''s second son. Mr. John George''s only daughter married Nate''s second son.
In addition to these people, Federer also introduced some key figures of the Western Mining Association and some local rich people to Du Lin. with the passage of time, people soon returned to their seats and the auction officially began.
In fact, today''s auction is not the main reason for these people to participate. Most people here don''t expect to take the copper mine under their own banner. They just use this auction as a platform to exchange the recent situation, see if they can find any new projects and maintain their relationship.
The main photographer was very young and there was no nonsense. He directly introduced the taste and reserves of the copper mine, then hung up the starting price of 1 million yuan and started the process.
No matter how perfunctory the auction will be, some people will support it. From time to time, you can see someone holding up a sign. It seems that the auction will be very lively, but everyone knows that there are only a few really competitive.
Soon after the price was raised to 1.5 million, few people raised cards frequently, and the interval between each raise would become longer. The three most powerful people haven''t started yet. They won''t start the real auction until these people stop participating.
For about 20 minutes after the auction began, the Sao Bao agent of jindisi metal mining raised his number plate and shouted out a price of 2 million.
As soon as this price came out, the last few struggling people also gave up their struggle, and the price of 2 million has broken through their psychological bottom line. Copper mining is more troublesome than iron ore or aluminum ore. Aluminum ore from bauxite to aluminum ingot is not complicated, and so is iron ore. those iron ores with an iron content of 50 or 60% will soon become iron ingots and steel ingots after magnetic separation. But the copper mine is different. The taste of the copper mine in this auction is only 2.1%. In short, it is more than 20 kilograms of copper ingots with impurities that can be extracted from a ton of raw copper ore.
The long time of mining, smelting and molding means that the speed of capital recovery will be very slow. There will be a very long process from capital recovery to net profit. In addition, a series of reasons other than business forced these people to give up the continuous bidding - sometimes something can not be sold.
"2.2 million!", Sandra gracefully raised the number plate in her hand and smiled at the agent of kingdees, but the latter had no good face. Sandra''s one shot means that he needs to pay hundreds of thousands more to win the copper mine. The headquarters will never give him a good face.
"Isn''t Orville satisfied that he has won a lot of mining areas in the past two years? The copper mine has a small stock. Why don''t you give it to me to kill the lords who sit in the office in the imperial capital?" the man in white squeezed out a smile and said a few words to Sandra, then raised his number plate, "2.3 million... I''ll invite you to dinner later."
Sandra smiled with great flavor. It was a smile with lasting appeal first and smile again. "I will definitely go at Mr. Cleveland''s invitation, but you have your trouble and I also have my trouble. The board of directors has set a goal for me this year. If I can''t finish it, I can only be expelled from the company. Why don''t you give me the mine..., 2.5 million!"
Many people held their breath at the auction. After the price of 2.5 million came out, there were basically no competitors. Even Mr. Cleveland, the agent of jintisi metal mining group, shut up. In fact, he can continue to shout up at the price of 2.5 million, but it has become meaningless to shout again at this time. In addition to wasting more cash to buy a non rich mine that will not be mined in a few to more than ten years, the senior management of the group will certainly think that this is a failed investment.
Everyone''s eyes were focused on Sandra. It was obvious that the scarlet kiss lady had taken another ore vein. There are envy, jealousy and hatred. In short, a lot of eyes are mixed together, which makes people unable to distinguish, but this is the so-called upper class society, full of all kinds of more hidden desires and impulses.
At this time, Dooling raised his number plate and made the first sound at the auction today, "three million!"
At the moment when he shouted out the price, everyone''s eyes focused on him, including cliff and Sandra, and Henry also accidentally found Dooling''s existence.
"What? Is there anything wrong?", Turin smiled and shrugged his shoulders. He looked at the people around him. Those people withdrew their eyes one by one. At this moment, they knew that the inherent forces in the West would change again.
A person who dares to challenge the existence of the three major companies will never be a small fuss. For a time, everyone''s mind is very complex. More people still guess who the young man is.
Sandra resumed her smile after a short surprise. "This gentleman is very green. I don''t know which company you represent? Maybe we can expand our business?"
Du Lin pinched his tie and tied it straight. "I don''t represent anyone. I only represent myself. My name is Du Lin!"
