Peach Pit Landlord

?\u003c/\u003e This night Li Yuan, who has been very busy recently, went to bed early, but was woken up by the phone ringing not long after he fell asleep. This made Li Yuan very upset, and when he answered the phone, he said dissatisfiedly: "Who is it, why don't people sleep in the middle of the night?"

"Ah, I forgot about the time difference, it's already night over there." Pierre's strange tone came from the other end of the phone: "But how can you sleep, today is the day of the auction !"

Li Yuan rubbed his eyes and said, "I've been so busy these days, why don't I go to bed early? Just let him go about the auction, and let me know the result tomorrow."

"No, no, no, this is absolutely impossible!" The Frenchman's stubborn temper also came up, and he insisted on saying to Li Yuan: "This is the first time that peach truffles are put up for auction, you should take good care of them, I will inform you of the auction situation in real time !"

"Forget it, international calls are very expensive!" Li Yuan planned to be lazy, so he began to make excuses.

"No, no, there are so many communication tools now, it is not necessary to make international calls!" Pierre said with a smile: "What is your penguin number, tell me, I will add you!"

Li Yuan said helplessly: "You, a foreigner, also play this, what are you going to do!"

But complaints are complaints, Li Yuan still told the Frenchman his number. Anyway, he was woken up, so he simply got up to see how much those truffles could sell for.

Pierre quickly added Li Yuan as a friend, and then began to "live broadcast" the auction to him through Penguin software.

The auctioneer is currently auctioning several bottles of red wine, and Pierre said that it will be the turn of the truffles next. It can be said that Li Yuan didn't know anything about red wine. He only saw someone raising the price, and finally the auctioneer dropped the hammer to make the deal. With the sparse applause in the auction hall, the wine auction was over.

"It's Truffle's turn!" Pierre excitedly said to Li Yuan, "You don't understand French, I'll translate for you!"

The Frenchman had just finished speaking. The auctioneer started talking. Thanks to Pierre's translation, Li Yuan could roughly understand what the other party was talking about.

"The next item to be auctioned is the Xiantao brand top-quality truffle from China!" The auctioneer read out the next auction item according to the auction list. Then he himself froze for a moment.

In the auction hall, there was even soft laughter. It seems that many people think this lot is very funny.

"In most people's perception, the best truffles are produced in Europe!" Pierre explained to Li Yuan in a low voice, "That's why the auctioneer said that these truffles were produced in China, so everyone would have such a reaction.

"

Li Yuan didn't comment, just smiled coldly. He already knew the quality of these truffles, and when the auctioneer brought up the real ones, those who laughed just now would be slapped in the face.

The facts did not disappoint Li Yuan. When the auctioneer showed his truffles to everyone, there was a burst of amazement at the scene. At the same time, Li Yuan noticed. The guys who were laughing before were all shocked now, as if they couldn't believe what happened in front of them.

Li Yuan was very satisfied with the situation at the auction site, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "Hey, I told you to laugh again! A bunch of guys who have never seen the world, are they dumbfounded now?"

Those who will participate in this kind of auction are those who know the ingredients very well, and they can all see that these truffles are indeed extraordinary. No wonder the auctioneer just said that they are top-quality truffles. Moreover, the quality of black and white truffles is so high, which is even more rare.

What surprised everyone even more. Just now the auctioneer made it very clear that these truffles come from China. Although truffles are also produced in southern China, I have never seen such a superb product. So many people started whispering. Find out who actually sent these truffles to the auction.

However, the auctioneer will not divulge customer information, and these people will naturally not be able to find out anything. At the same time, the auctioneer has already started to auction black truffles. After he quoted a reserve price of 6,000 euros per kilogram, many people immediately began to bid enthusiastically.

After some fierce bidding, the black truffle was finally auctioned by two customers at a price of 7,800 euros per kilogram. Although the price was already high, but judging by the joyful expressions of the two of them, it seemed that they had taken advantage of it.

And then the auction of white truffles became even more intense. White truffles are rarer than black truffles. The price is naturally more expensive. Even a very ordinary white truffle can cost 6,000 euros per kilogram. The base price of Li Yuan's white truffles at the auction was 7,500 euros per kilogram. Even so, there were still bids enthusiastically.

Watching the number on the display screen behind the auctioneer keep changing, it has jumped to the number of ten thousand. Li Yuan was naturally full of joy. The white truffle that was sent to the auction this time weighed three kilograms. Even if it was sold at this price, it would still fetch 30,000 euros, which is equivalent to more than 200,000 RMB.

After reaching the price of 10,000 euros per kilogram, there were significantly fewer bidders. In the end, these white truffles were won by a bidder at a price of 10,600 euros per kilogram, which was enough to satisfy Li Yuan.

"Haha, it's really good!" Li Yuan calculated an account in his heart, and said to Pierre with a smile: "This auction has made us a total of nearly 70,000 euros. Including domestic sales, it has exceeded The 80,000 euros you estimated before, I am very satisfied!"

Pierre didn't care much about how much money he made, and said to Li Yuan indifferently: "Because this is the first time that Xiantao brand truffles are auctioned in Europe, and the brand awareness is not high, so the price is low. When the popularity is raised in the future, the auction The price can be even higher.”

Of course Li Yuan liked to hear this, he nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, in the future we will often send truffles to European auctions, and strive to become the world's top truffle supplier!"

"Haha, I'll wait and see!" Pierre agreed with a smile, apparently not taking Li Yuan's words seriously. However, the current French did not expect that Li Yuan's words would become a reality in just a few years.

Pierre quickly said to Li Yuan: "But don't be too optimistic, the auction price will be deducted from the handling fee, and my commission is also included. What you really get may not be as much as what you sell directly. "

In fact, Li Yuan has also considered this issue, but he thinks he should take a long-term view. As the French said, when the Xiantao brand is well-known in Europe, the truffles will command a higher price. Moreover, Li Yuan's eyes are not only focused on truffles, but also intends to sell more ingredients to Europe and the United States, which requires a reliable agent there.

And Pierre was originally a chef, and he has good contacts in Europe and America. More importantly, he is also very trustworthy, and he is quite a good guy. This is the real reason why Li Yuan is willing to cooperate with Pierre and let him be the truffle agent.

At this time, Li Yuan thought of another thing, and quickly asked Pierre: "By the way, how effective is my method of preserving truffles?" (To be continued.)
