Little Life on An American Ranch

Chapter 503 Anticlimactic Auction

Jian Heng looked around, and found that he only knew four or five faces, and these four or five faces were all people who were not easy to deal with. When he turned his face, he saw people appearing on the auction stage. He raised his hand and looked at the faces. I checked my watch and realized that before I knew it, it was time for the auction to officially start.

Someone on the auction stage got ready. Those who were standing and chatting, and those who were smoking outside stopped what they were doing, walked to the auction site, and sat down.

Jian Heng and Zhang Jialiang were sitting side by side, looking at the stage, watching the auctioneer hold a small hammer and stand behind the auction stage.

"Welcome everyone to come to our auction. I am familiar with many people here. Of course, there are also many new friends here, some from the United States, some from Canada, and some from China," said the auctioneer. Seeing that everyone in the audience was seated, he bluntly said that he would be alone in one day.

Jian Heng was not surprised to hear that someone came from Canada, but when he heard that there were people from China at the scene, he was suddenly worried and surprised. After entering for a long time, he didn't see the third Chinese face.

Jian Heng turned his head curiously, but there were no Chinese faces, but he saw a few foreign faces looking at him. When they made eye contact with him, these people smiled friendly. Jian Heng couldn't help it. So I also laughed at others.

Zhang Jialiang saw him, and whispered to Jian Heng: "Brother, don't look at it, just our two Chinese faces, people think we are robbed from China."

"Damn, it's really shameless." Jian Heng naturally understood, and the auction house gave this small auction a little push with Chinese guests.

Now whether in North America or Europe, when the big guys hear the word Chinese, what comes to mind is the big money, the rich man, the one who spends money without blinking, and the person who buys whatever he catches, anyway, he is rich and dares. The kind of people who spend money indiscriminately, the so-called Chinese people have raised prices, no matter what they have or not, as long as they are at fault for raising prices, many of them can be attributed to the Chinese people, and they can become incompetent government officials from time to time. The blame man.

"Okay, our first lot is a small ranch near the lake"

The first lot is a warm-up. The ranch is about 20 acres in size. It can’t be considered a small ranch in this area. It can only be spent on vacation, raising some things and playing with it. , I really want to do something, but I can't do anything with this small area.

For such a small ranch, it is impossible for Jian Heng to raise a placard, but it is not that no one wants it. The advantage is that the price is cheap, which is more than 30,000 yuan. You must know that the small ranch also includes a small wooden building with two floors on the east and west. Although it is not very luxurious, it is enough for middle-class families to come and have fun. In other words, the total price is not high, and the low auction price is also lower than the market price, so it seems very popular. Three guests After four or five rounds of price deals, it was a good start.

"The next one is the second holding ranch, a small open space, it used to be" the auction house projected a photo of the small plot on the big screen behind it, and began to introduce it carefully.

This piece of land is the O'Brien family's land, an open space of about forty acres, without houses or other buildings, it is completely a primitive land, what is the good thing about this land, there is a stream in the middle , and the area of ​​the entire small land is relatively flat, and it is also close to the foot of the mountain, which is perfect as a small ranch for hunting.

Jian Heng naturally likes this piece of land. Even without these things, he doesn't want others to come and be his neighbors. With this piece of land, Jian Heng and Old Walsh's ranch will border on more area.

When the auction house raised its hand to call out a price, Jian Heng raised his hand.

"30,000 dollars, this gentleman offered 30,000 dollars, do you have 31,000, 31,000? Okay, sir, do you have 31,000, 32,000?" The auction house stretched out its finger Seeing the auction scene who kept raising his hands, he was spitting and roaring.

After Jian Heng raised his hand twice, he stopped and stopped raising his hand again.

He looked at those who continued to raise their hands with a curious and playful expression.

Zhang Jialiang also had a smile on his face at the same time, lowered his voice and said to Jian Heng: "These two nurses worked really hard, but it's a pity that the performance was a bit too much."

"Forty-seven thousand, forty-seven thousand dollars, is there any more?" The auction house's face changed slightly, but he quickly put it away, pointed at the last bidder, and said loudly asked the people around.

One of the buyers who wanted to buy stopped, and now the highest bidder is a babysitter.

Forty-seven thousand U.S. dollars, it is not cheap to buy such a piece of vacant land, even if you go to the market to buy it alone, it will not be much more expensive than this, and it has to include various fees. Now buy it here, Not only are various expenses unavoidable, but also the auction fee has to be paid. A rough calculation does not come down to $50,000. Who would not be stupid to buy such a piece of land for $50,000.

Jian Heng wanted it because it bordered his own ranch, but it was too expensive, so it was completely unnecessary.

The second lot was 'taken' by a child in the field. Although the auction house wanted to show a very happy look after the auction house called out the deal, it was a pity that the cultivation skills were not in place. Not only Jian Heng, but even Zhang Jialiang saw the embarrassment on his face, and couldn't help laughing twice.

Just as Jian Heng watched playfully as the nurse walked to the settlement, and began to pretend to give a deposit or something, suddenly a few people he knew began to chat with each other, and one of them even took out his mobile phone , Immediately after, the others also took out their mobile phones, and within a minute of getting together, they all stood up and left the stage without saying a word.

When the few people left like this, not only Jian Heng was a little stunned, but also the other people who participated in the shooting were also stunned. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't understand what happened.

Jian Heng muttered, "What happened?"

Zhang Jialiang scratched the back of his head: "I don't know!"

While talking about Zhang Jialiang, he took out his mobile phone, fiddled with it a few times, then froze for a moment, and quickly put the information displayed on his mobile phone in front of Jian Heng.

Jian Heng looked at the words on the screen, and saw that it read: This morning, wolves attacked six nearby small and medium-sized pastures at the same time. According to preliminary statistics, more than 60 cows were killed or injured.

A short message immediately poured the coldest pot of water on this auction. As soon as such news came out, as long as there was no problem in their minds, they would know how to choose.

When Jian Heng saw this, he immediately showed joy, but quickly put it away, and began to praise Four Eyes Hei's beautiful job in his heart.

Zhang Jialiang raised his phone here, and the person sitting next to the two turned his head and saw the information on the phone, so he quickly took out the phone and looked at it.

Zhang Jialiang wasn't the only one who was smart, or it wasn't just one or two who subscribed to the news push, so everyone in the venue soon knew the news.

The auctioneer and the off-site staff naturally got the news as soon as possible, so the auctioneer just suspended the auction, waiting for the seller and the organizer to arrange next.

Sitting at the bottom, Jian Heng looked at these guys who were busy and messed up on the stage with a smile, and he was very happy: I asked you to hire babysitters, and I asked you not to sell them directly to me. Is it cool now?

After waiting for about ten minutes, some of the guests who were still sitting began to leave the venue. After fifteen minutes, less than half of the people were left in the venue.

The auctioneer came back to the stage at this time, and said with an apologetic expression: "Hey, I'm sorry, today's auction has been postponed because several nearby pastures have been attacked, and it is not appropriate to auction now. To express our apologies to everyone, we have also prepared a small gift for you, which will be given to you by the staff later."

Long-winded a lot, in fact, the meaning is that this place cannot be sold today, you don't want to buy it, and we don't want to sell it, everyone should go to their own homes today, and go to their mothers.

Jian Heng didn't complain at all. Anyway, as long as the four eyes are black, the land price can only fall, and it is impossible to skyrocket. If you wait for a month or two, what are you afraid of? Jian Heng knows that this is a small bank. The same is true of financial resources. It is a great thing to cover up for a year, let alone cover up for a few years. Anyway, I have nothing to do, and I am not so eager to get the land. If you want to wait, then continue to wait.

Smiling, he took the small gift from the staff, some snacks, plus a coffee coupon, less than twenty dollars, and happily went with Zhang Xiliang.
