Plutocrats From the Gold Rush

  Chapter 70 Auction of leasehold rights

  Alaska, when Xie Jin was busy with Internet companies and the capital market was boiling.

   Half a month has passed quietly, and the auction of the leasehold rights of the Golden Sea Area will be officially held soon.

  And because of this period of time, there are countless crazy scenes in the gold futures trading market.

  This auction also attracted more people's attention and attention.

  In order to prevent possible accidents and confusion, let the auction be held normally.

  The auction was originally planned to be held in the small port city of Roma Port.

   In the end, it was also transferred to Anchorage, the largest city in Alaska, near Roma Port.

  In addition, the state and town government also assembled more than a thousand security guards and security personnel to maintain the operation and order of the entire auction.

  …

   Downtown Anchorage, Anchorage Council Building.

   Crowds of people rubbing shoulders, crowded in the narrow entrance and exit passages of the building.

  Under the surveillance of more than a dozen security guards, countless people lined up one after another, accepted the security check, and then entered the building one by one.

   At the same time, outside the building, countless people were gathering over shoulder to shoulder.

  In the building, many people and company representatives who came in are holding various certificates and documents, going through various registration, auction, and capital verification procedures and processes.

   It is not that simple to participate in the auction.

   Not everyone is eligible to participate.

  Today, when the capital market is boiling, Xie Jin’s golden sea area undoubtedly has a large number of gold deposits that can be mined and realized at any time.

   It is conceivable how many people will come during this highly anticipated time period.

   And with so many people coming, holding these hens that lay golden eggs, they can choose who will be their collaborators, Xie Jin who participated in the auction.

   It is also conceivable how much friendship and what great benefits will be gained.

  …

  In front of the registration office where the shoulders were rubbing against each other, the tall and fat old Nick also squeezed into a queue among a group of people with an ugly face.

  He obviously broke his original promise never to come to the auction.

  But it doesn't matter, as long as there is gold, then he can take back those promises like farting.

  However, even if he withdraws those promises, it cannot change his current situation.

  Because there are too many people who came to participate in the auction.

  So in the end, after the capital verification, those who have the right to participate in the auction need to go through a round of lottery selection.

   Naturally, the method of drawing lots is self-evident.

  Although on the surface it is all kinds of fairness and openness.

  But secretly, various Wall Street capitals, agents of state government officials, and various related companies and so on.

  They will all be lucky to go through various methods and finally get the admission ticket.

   And the rest, after ensuring that certain locals, aborigines, and gold diggers are eligible to enter.

  Then the actual drawing of lots can begin.

   Odds? There were probably more than 5,000 people here today.

   And the tickets that can be given to them in the end will not exceed 300.

  Obviously, the big fat old Nick is also one of the members competing for the 300 places.

  He just wants to pray to God now, so that he can seize the opportunity with good luck and become one of the people participating in the auction.

  Finally, he succeeded in obtaining the lease right of a piece of golden sea area that countless people longed for.

   At that time, even if you don’t go panning for gold yourself, if you just change hands in the market, it will be almost unimaginable explosive profits.

  After all, in the current market, the prices of gold spot and futures have almost skyrocketed.

  It can also be predicted that the price of gold futures will continue to grow wildly with extreme optimism.

   And almost everyone has a positive and positive attitude towards this point.

  Look at those workers, look at those gold companies that got low-grade mines and were involved in the suspension of production.

  Looking at the analysts in the capital market.

   No one is cheering and carnivally advocating the market outlook for gold futures prices.

   "Hey old Nick, you **** here too?!"

   Just when the big fat old Nick lost his mind and lined up.

   From the noisy crowd behind him, a shout echoed in his ears.

   "Olixet, Kafeira?

  Damn you, you are here too? Where did you get the money from?

  Didn’t you say that after renting a gold panning boat, you would have no money?

   But now why the **** are you able to come in?

  How could those guys let you in, a poor ghost. "

   "Hey, hey, hey, **** old Nick, you better show me some respect.

  Also, come on, you can come in the **** thing, why do you think I can't come in?

   Besides, in the global market, the price of gold mines is skyrocketing.

  Even if I get a loan, I will come here.

  I don't want to miss this opportunity.

  Everyone knows what it means if they can get a good piece of golden sea this time.

   What's even more rare is that the **** Eastern Devil actually kept his promise.

   It is true that at this time the gold sea area is being auctioned, and so many gold deposits with rich reserves have been released.

   But don't care if he's crazy, as long as he can make me money.

   Then he is crazy, and my God, I would do anything for him.

   Having said that, that guy is really enviable, even if it is really an oriental devil.

   Otherwise, how could he have found so much gold? "

  Looking at the muttering bearded Kafera, Old Nick curled his lips upon hearing this.

  Of course he agreed with one of the many things he said to the other party.

   That is, as long as that oriental devil can make him make money, he is willing to do everything for the other party, even if the other party is Satan.

   "Forget it, let's not talk about it, which mining area are you going to choose this time?"

   "Certainly those areas below the average.

  I am willing to be taller, but it depends on us? "

  Under the bushy beard, a mocking bitter smile echoed, and then continued.

   "Come on, don't think too much.

   Besides, we also need to pray, first get the ticket, don't we? "

   "Hey, don't be so pessimistic, maybe we are so lucky to be selected?"

  Looking at the helpless Kafela, old Nick also showed a helpless expression on his face.

  …

   Half an hour later, after receiving the lottery number and confirming my own number, I waited for a long time.

  Cafela and old Nick, as expected, lost the election in the end.

   And when they were extremely silent with each other.

  A turning point suddenly appeared before their eyes.

  A private gold digger was lucky enough to get a ticket.

   Moreover, he also wanted to recruit some people who were not selected by the lottery to cooperate together and jointly invest in a medium-to-large golden sea area.

  So when he was sure he got the ticket.

   Immediately shouted in the venue, attracting the attention and eyes of countless people.

  Finally, under the watchful eyes of a group of people, he chose four partners of the same strength and class.

  Prepare to sign a contract, and jointly start the golden sea area together, and then invest in the purchase of the golden sea area leasehold according to a certain ratio.

  Old Nick and Kafeila were lucky enough to be selected.

  However, the proportion of capital contribution is obviously the promoter who takes the least amount of money and does occupy the most shares.

   Because who made him lucky to draw the best lottery.

  …

  Anchorage Capitol, after a morning of lottery and busy.

  In the afternoon, there were far fewer capitalists and investors in the venue.

  The rest are either small people who have joined forces with powerful forces, or big capital with real confidence and preparation.

  Of course, the number of people who participated in the auction was much smaller.

  However, countless reporters with long guns and short cannons did begin to fill all corners of the building.

   And constantly looking for every gold digger and capitalists who can see to interview.

   After all, this is an auction that has attracted the attention and curiosity of countless people.

   And the attention of countless people naturally represents super high sales and ratings.

  In the current period of time, naturally no media would refuse.

  And not only the bald eagle, but also major media all over the world have sent a large number of reporters here.

  At this time, in the hall of the parliament building, the five-member gang formed by Old Nick and Cafela was hiding in a corner, waiting for the auction to officially start.

   Naturally, they did not escape the interviews of the reporters, but fortunately they have already been dealt with.

   And they didn't have to wait too long, soon, as the main venue of the auction, it was on the stage in the center of the hall on the first floor.

  A well-dressed middle-aged man walked onto the stage with a smile on his face and a card in his hand.

"good afternoon everyone!"

  Among the noise, the voice of the host reverberated in the hall through the stereo, instantly suppressing countless voices.

   “First of all, welcome to the Alaska Gold Sea Auction hosted by Stan Mining.

thank you all. "

   "Papa, papa, papa!" The applause echoed in the venue following the host's voice.

   “Secondly, thanks to the town government of Alaska for its strong support for this auction.

   Allows us to borrow the state capitol and hold auctions.

  At the same time, I also thank the relevant departments and the security team of thousands of people.

   Help maintain the order and stability of this auction, and ensure that this auction can be carried out safely. "

  The voice came again, this time the applause was much lighter.

   At the same time, many people also narrowed their eyes and heard the meaning of the other party's words clearly.

  The meaning of the host is actually very obvious.

   They have a strong background in stan mining and a strong wrist.

  I hope everyone will be obedient and don't make troubles, otherwise you will be at your own risk, and the ugly words will be mentioned earlier.

   "In addition, I am here again on behalf of our president of Stan Mining, Mr. Stan Xie announced.

   Our rules for this auction.

   There is also a reconfirmation, and a part of the proceeds from this auction will be donated to..."

  The host's voice echoed on the stage.

   Then through countless media, it was broadcast to all parts of the world.

   Naturally, it also includes Xie Jin's home in the magic capital of the Eastern Kingdom.

   After watching the venue and confirming that there was no problem with the auction, Xie Jin turned off the TV.

   At the same time, with the wide spread of auctions.

  In the capital market, countless people have once again frantically pushed up the prices of gold spot and futures contracts, sprinting towards a higher peak.

   As for the reason is also very simple.

  When the eyes of the whole world are infinitely focused on this auction.

  When the auction started, countless capitalists bid wildly in order to compete for the golden sea.

  The global capital market will be more excited and impulsive because of this news.

  At the same time, with the attention of countless people, it is also destined to have countless funds that were impossible to enter.

   Influx into this market, once again piling up the price of gold futures and spot.

   This is like the future market, the digital currency before and after being widely publicized by the global media.

  The skyrocketing factor here is because of market attention and wealth myths, which have attracted countless capital and people to enter the market for speculation.

   Finally, the market price keeps piling up.

   As for their fate and consequences after entering?

   Capitalists make money.

  Financial companies specialize in research on how to make money.

  They are still alive and well.

   Except for the lucky ones who have the chips before everything starts.

  How many people are left who can make sure they make money and get out?

   If you make money today, it will be cut off by others tomorrow, and you will get it back.

   Under round after round of scythes, even international giants will be harvested.

   What's more, ordinary investors who don't have any information at all can only look for and seize opportunities from the market.

   And people, can they really win almost every battle?

   Or do you win more and lose less for a long time, and maintain inner stability?

  Even if this is the case, how confident can you be to ensure that you can avoid all kinds of super scythes every time.

   There are also black swans, what about various economic crises?

  …

  In the host's eloquent speech.

  A group of gold diggers and speculators from all walks of life, all of them fell asleep listening to it.

   On the contrary, countless reporters and officials of the California town government listened with gusto and pride, with joyful expressions on their faces.

   "Okay, I have finished introducing the purpose and rules of this auction.

   Next, we invite the governor of Alaska to speak on behalf of the town government of Alaska.

Thank you everyone. "

   "Papa papa..."

  At the venue, sparse applause echoed in the hall.

  Countless capitalists looked at the host standing on the stage and applauding, all showing numb and stiff smiles.

   After all, they're here for gold and money.

  The devil wants to hear some messy tirade.

   And **** Mr. Governor, smug and boastful.

  If it weren't for the host talking about the security and background of this auction.

   Many people on the field also know Xie Jin's identity and energy.

   Now the group of people below, someone has already taken the lead in booing, and drove the governor and the host out.

  Whoever likes to listen to their nonsense should listen to it. They are here to make money.

   To **** with politics and bureaucracy.

  “Today is an extremely important day for Alaska.

  Thanks to Stan Mining for bringing new changes to Alaska.

   Thank you all for coming.

  I am here on behalf of the state government, thank you all for coming, and thank Mr. Stein for his contribution to charity and public causes..."

  On the stage, Mr. Governor kept talking.

   As for how humble he was when he called Xie Jin before.

   Flattery is shameless, thank you for fawning on Xie Jin.

   You can’t see it here either, can you?

   And as governor of a mining state.

   Facing Xie Jin, the overlord and creator **** in the mining industry.

  He didn't feel anything wrong about it.

   This is a matter of course, isn't it?

  As long as you can please Xie Jin, as long as you can get Xie Jin's approval.

  In the mining state of Alaska, he also secured the throne of governor.

  And what if you oppose Xie Jin?

  Look at the few local aborigines off the field, as well as representatives of the gold digger group.

  In Alaska, how many politicians can really get rid of and ignore them?

  And if Xie Jin implicitly said that if he is not elected next year, he will be more optimistic about Alaska.

   Double investment in medical foundations, increase miners' income, and expand the scope of partner groups.

  Support local business organizations.

  What will happen then?

   There is no need to say anything else, just say that I think the candidate of such and such is better.

   intends to increase investment and various investments next year, and then the other party will also behave in front of the public.

   Voters who see the benefits and vote with their feet, who will they choose?

   And what if he hugged Xie, the golden giant's thigh?

  …

   "Ahem, cough, well, let us thank Mr. Governor for your generosity.

   Now we will officially enter the auction. "

   Soon, after Mr. Governor's high-pitched publicity.

  The supporters stepped onto the stage, this time there was no more nonsense, and the auctioneer was directly invited to come on stage.

   "Hi everyone, it is an honor to host this auction on behalf of Stan Mining Group.

  My name is Mark, you can also call me Williams.

  Okay, without further ado, let's take a look at the first bid.

  A sea area with large gold deposit veins!

   The detected reserves are more than 30 tons, and the scope is about 60 square kilometers of sea area.

  The location is located in the gold placer area marked a in No. 17 Sea Area of ​​the Outer Sea.

  The difficulty of mining is moderate, the distribution is relatively scattered, and the water depth is 17 meters, which is an ideal operation area.

  As long as you have a medium-sized sand pumper, you can go to mine gold sand.

  According to the data provided by Stan Mining.

  One day, a medium-sized suction ship sends divers into the water to look for gold deposits, and then operate.

  Twelve hours, at least more than 10 kilograms of gold sand can be mined.

   And if it is replaced by a large-scale sand pumping ship, this number can be increased by at least five times, reaching the output of 50 kg of gold sand.

  According to the current gold price, even after excluding the mining cost, it can make a net profit of more than 400,000 US dollars per day.

  Now, the starting price: 10 million US dollars, the mining period is one year.

   Anyone willing to bid? "

  The auctioneer, who was wearing a small dress and white gloves, did not hold the small auction hammer all the time.

   Instead, keep it at hand, and keep gesticulating with body language to mobilize the mood and atmosphere of the scene.

   At the same time, it accurately introduces the situation of the entire sea area, ensuring that all auctioneers can understand it.

   Obviously, as an auctioneer, he is extremely professional and qualified.

   "Okay, Mr. No. 175, the bid is 10 million.

  No. 395, 12 million.

  13 million, 14…

   All right, Mr. 412, 15 million.

  Any more? There are still bids...

  16 million, this gentleman, Mr. No. 59, bid 16 million yuan!

  23 million! This gentleman offered $23 million!

  Anyone else want to bid? "

  The voice echoed, and the scene fell into a brief silence following a fierce high price increase.

   But obviously, the auctioneer will not let the place cool down.

   "Attention everyone, I need to remind everyone again.

  This is a sea area of ​​placer gold mines where specific reserves have been explored and are destined to make money.

  And the environment of the sea area is also very good, which is a relatively good part of the gold mines offered for auction this time.

   And only a large sand pump is needed, here, the daily profit can reach at least 400,000.

   Such a piece of sea is only 23 million US dollars?

   Hey guys, trust me.

  If there are two boats now, what will it be like?

  What about the three boats? Even if it is to give a part to the crew and sailors.

   But this is clearly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

   And it is a unique opportunity in history.

   If you miss today, more and more mines will be auctioned off later.

  Everyone's choice...

  Okay, this gentleman, Mr. No. 175, bid again, 27 million! $27 million!

  Is there any higher price?

   Oh, a Mr. Wall Street! You are a shrewd businessman.

  I think you must plan to package this sea area into securities and financial products, and then enter the market for circulation, right?

   It is really an extremely wise approach and choice.

  Okay, without further ado, let's take a look at the venue, are there any bids? "

   "..." Waited for a while, suppressed and silent.

   "Okay, first bid.

  Gentlemen, a gold placer deposit with a reserve of 30 tons is in front of you. You only need to move your hands and work hard to obtain its ownership.

  Anyone else bid? "

   "..."

  Okay, the second bid, the second time!

   This is an opportunity to show your face in front of the whole world, and countless people are paying attention to this auction.

   It is also a huge opportunity to build fame and brand!

OK! No. 37, Lawrence Financial Group! 31 million!

  31 million!

  This gentleman from San Francisco.

   Bid $31 million!

   "..."
