Chapter 123 - The Auction Reached Its Peak

Chapter 123: The Auction Reached Its Peak

Jian Ai initially decided not to take action, but her eyes could not help but light up. Anyone with discerning eyes could tell the value of this piece of land. No wonder this was the finale today.
The price soared and soon reached forty million yuan.
Bai Zhou immediately raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Jian Ai. “Boss, even if we buy this piece of land, we don’t have to do anything. Its value will automatically appreciate in the next two years.”
Jian Ai smiled. “With such an excellent piece of land in such a wonderful location, no matter what kind of project we develop it into, we will earn without losses.”
Upon hearing Jian Ai’s words, Bai Zhou understood and immediately raised his card. “Forty-three million yuan!”
Currently, the price was already approaching that of the first piece of land. However, the first piece of land had an area of over ten thousand square meters, which was several times that of the fifth piece of land. However, relying on its superior location and space for appreciation, the price of the fifth piece of land naturally increased.
The other companies also understood this logic. The bidding entered a state of anxiety, and Jian Changsheng and Chen Lei also called out their bids. Today’s auction was at its peak only during the bidding for this last piece of land.
“Fifty-one million yuan!” Chen Lei raised his bid.
Currently, Century Corporation had no harvests at all. Chen Lei was famous for being cautious in the industry. Now that he refused to let go of this fifth piece of land, it was obvious that he understood the value of this piece of land.
“Fifty-three million yuan!” Jian Changsheng bid again.
The price had already exceeded fifty million yuan. It seemed to be a competition between the Jian Group and Century Group. Most companies had already retreated by then. Faced with such high bidding resistance, it was obvious that they were powerless.
“Fifty-five million yuan!” Bai Zhou joined the battle again, which attracted the other companies’ attention.
This person from East Sea Real Estate had already spent over fifty million yuan to buy a piece of land. Yet, he was still trying to buy another piece of land?
A hundred million yuan was not a small amount. Even for a big corporation like the Jian Group, it was difficult for them to fork it out.
Chen Lei said, “Fifty-seven million yuan!”
Jian Changsheng said, “Fifty-nine million yuan!”
Bai Zhou said, “Sixty-one million yuan!”
…
The price kept increasing. Other than the three people who were still competing with one another, the rest seemed to have become spectators at this auction.
In particular, East Sea Real Estate’s capital secretly shocked them. They also guessed if East Sea Real Estate was a company established by a large corporation from another province and it was trying to break into Baiyun City’s market.
Jian Ai sat on the seat expressionless, as if everything had nothing to do with her. It was also because of this that Bai Zhou followed the bids fearlessly. As long as the boss did not speak, he could call the bids without worrying.
“Seventy-three million yuan!” Jian Changsheng bid again.
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard that. This price had set a new record in Baiyun City’s land auction in the past two years.
It was indeed the Jian Group!
Chen Lei immediately sighed secretly. His Century Corporation had just completed the development for the Century Mansion. Although the trading situation of this development was good, they had not yet sold all the apartments. The company did not have sufficient funds, and seventy million yuan was the maximum he could fork out.
“Chairman Jian, I won’t fight with you anymore,” Chen Lei softly said and smiled helplessly.
Jian Changsheng replied politely, “Thank you, Chairman Chen…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a lazy voice rang in the hall. “Eighty million yuan!”
