Ten minutes later.
The auctioneer started to introduce the last piece of land.
"Plot GH3511 is located north of Qin 'an Road and east of Huaihe Road. It covers an area of 130,000 square meters, with a plot ratio of 2.5 and a maximum area of 325,000 square meters …"
"The starting price is 1.6 billion, and each increment must be at least 10 million!"
The starting price was 1.6 billion, which Li Dong had expected. After all, the starting price for today's auction was not low.
130,000 square meters was around 200 mu, which meant that the starting price would be 8 million per mu, and the floor price would be around 5,000 yuan per square meter.
Li Dong calculated for a moment. According to today's market, it was possible for the price to exceed 15 million per mu.
After all, this was the central business district. If the price doubled, the final transaction price might not be lower than 3 billion.
With the starting price of 1.6 billion, 90% of the real estate companies were excluded.
Li Dong glanced at Xu Jianghua. This guy would definitely not let go of this piece of land today. He had to think about how much he should bid.
As he was thinking, Xu Jianghua suddenly said, "I have something to say!"
The auctioneer was stunned for a moment, then said, "Go ahead, Chairman Xu."
"If I remember correctly, there is a restriction on the number of bidders before the auction. The bidder for GH3511 must be a legal person, and the company or parent company that the legal person belongs to must have a first-class real estate development qualification, and the registered capital must be no less than 500 million yuan. Am I right? "
The auctioneer immediately said, "Yes, Chairman Xu. There is indeed such a rule."
Xu Jianghua nodded and turned to look at Li Dong, then said, "Then I want to know if Dong Yu Real Estate meets the requirements?"
The auctioneer was a little nervous and said, "Chairman Xu, I want to check."
Dong Yu Real Estate was unknown. If it wasn't for the commotion at the auction, the auctioneer wouldn't even know that this company was participating in the auction.
But since Xu Jianghua was questioning it, then he must check the qualification.
The auctioneer glanced at Li Dong, and seeing his indifferent expression, he smiled apologetically and went backstage.
The others also looked at Li Dong with interest. Dong Yu Real Estate was just established, and there was no news of any real estate company obtaining first-class development qualification.
Didn't that mean that Li Dong wouldn't even be qualified to participate in the auction?
But looking at Li Dong's indifferent expression, could it be that there was something fishy going on?
While everyone was puzzled, the host returned to the stage and apologised to Xu Jianghua, "Chairman Xu, Dongyu Real Estate meets the conditions to participate in the auction and is qualified to bid."
Xu Jianghua's expression darkened slightly. Behind him, Li Dong chuckled and said, "Chairman Xu, don't play if you can't afford to. You think my company, Li Dong, is not qualified to participate in the auction? Are you kidding me? Isn't it just a first-grade aptitude? I didn't spend a single cent to take over Cheng Rui Real Estate. Are you surprised, Chairman Xu? "
Xu Jianghua snorted and did not reply. In his heart, however, he was secretly cursing that no one had told him about this.
Although Cheng Rui Real Estate was not a large company, Zhang Lanyu and Chen Rui were both influential figures in the past. It was not difficult for them to get a first-class qualification for real estate development.
Ever since Chen Rui left, many people had been eyeing Cheng Rui Real Estate for this first-class qualification.
This qualification was not as easy as Li Dong said. Many small and medium-sized real estate companies had tried so hard but failed. In the end, they could only get a second-grade qualification.
Now, Li Dong had taken over Cheng Rui Real Estate without any effort. According to the grade, Li Dong's Dongyu Real Estate was not inferior to Longhua in all aspects, except for the scale.
Although he was scolding, Xu Jianghua did not embarrass himself. He sat on the chair and did not say a word.
Li Dong was secretly happy. Today, he finally got his face back. Who let this old man be so arrogant!
He owed me money, yet he was still so arrogant. If I don't teach him a lesson, he will really think that I am easy to bully.
He gave Hsu Shengzhe face and called him Chairman Xu. If he didn't give him face, so what if he called him an old man?
Li Dong had come to discuss business with Xu Jianghua, but he was rejected by the receptionist. Li Dong had been holding back his anger for a long time.
Xu Jianghua had brought all of this upon himself. Li Dong had no objections to the fact that Xu Jianghua wanted to promote his eldest son to a higher position, and it was not worthwhile for him to express his opinion.
But you are using me, Li Dong, as a stepping stone. You want me to be the chicken that you kill to warn the monkey? You have chosen the wrong person!
… …
The base price of 1.6 billion was not enough to scare those big shots in the real estate industry.
This time, a few big companies from other provinces had come to participate in the auction for this piece of land. When the auction started, the price soared.
15 minutes later, the price had risen to 2.6 billion.
Now, there were only three companies left. One of them was Longhua, and the other two were big companies.
The rest of the people were no longer concerned about the price. They were looking at Li Dong. Li Dong had not made a move yet. They wanted to see if Li Dong would join in later.
Li Dong did not care about that. He was busy sending and receiving text messages.
After a while, Li Dong showed his phone to Shen Qian.
Shen Qian looked at it for a while and said softly, "It's doable."
"How trustworthy are they?"
"They are all well-known companies. I don't think they will lie to you. It's not worth it."
Li Dong touched his chin and nodded. "That's good. But if I do this, will I be ostracized?"
Shen Qian said disapprovingly, "Everyone knows about your dispute with Longhua. Others might be affected, but you won't."
"Alright!"
Li Dong laughed, then bared his teeth and said, "Then let's do it!"
After he said that, Longhua raised its paddle to 2.8 billion.
The other two big companies seemed to be thinking of withdrawing. They hesitated and did not raise their paddles.
At this moment, Li Dong said loudly, "Dong Yu Real Estate, 3 billion!"
"3 billion!"
"D * mn, he really dares to do this. If Longhua does not want it, Far away will go bankrupt!"
"This guy is crazy. Xu Jianghua is done for this time. It doesn't matter if they want it or not, they will be embarrassed. Now that Longhua wants this piece of land, they will lose a few hundred million. If they don't want it, they will be doubted. Out of eight pieces of land, Longhua only wants one residential piece. How can they be the leader in the industry? "
"Hehe, why do we care so much? Let's wait and see. No matter who gets this piece of land, it will be reported in tomorrow's newspapers and news. We will have something to talk about after dinner. "
"Haha, that makes sense."
"…"
Everyone was discussing. Xu Jianghua and Xu Rulong looked gloomy and did not speak.
Just like what the others said, Longhua was in a dilemma.
If they wanted to get this piece of land, Li Dong would fight to the end. It was even possible for him to raise the bid to 4 billion.
But if they did not get this piece of land, Longhua's strategic goal would be disrupted and they would lose face.
A new real estate company had defeated Longhua three times in a row and got three pieces of land at the auction. Longhua would not be able to raise its head in the future.
Should they fight for it or not?
Just when Xu Jianghua and his son were hesitating, someone from Longhua suddenly sighed. "If we knew it would be like this, we wouldn't have done it."
Xu Rulong was in a bad mood. When he heard his own people questioning his father, he immediately said angrily, "Shut up! Do you think my father needs you to teach him how to do things? "
The person who spoke was also a director of Longhua Group. His face turned red when he was scolded by Xu Rulong in front of so many people.
Seeing everyone looking at him, he suddenly stood up and snorted. "I'm a director of Longhua. Don't I have the right to question? Longhua doesn't belong to you and your son. You must give the board an explanation today. Otherwise, don't force me to withdraw my shares! "
After saying that, the director of Longhua did not stay and turned to leave.
When he left, a few people from Longhua Group followed him. Xu Jianghua and his son's faces darkened.
Today was no longer a matter of losing face. If they did not handle it well, there would be big trouble waiting for them.
A member of Longhua's board of directors had questioned the chairman in public. Moreover, his words were sharp. He even asked Xu Jianghua to give an explanation. It would be a big mess if they did not handle it well.
Xu Jianghua was not in the mood to continue bidding. He snorted heavily and walked out.
Xu Rulong and the others hurriedly followed him. They looked a little embarrassed.
The eyes of the others were filled with schadenfreude. Some people's eyes flickered, perhaps wanting to add some trouble to Long Hua.
Li Dong did not look at them. Seeing that the auctioneer's attention was also attracted, he said impatiently, "Are you done? Drop the hammer! "
The auctioneer seemed to have woken up from a dream. But when he saw Longhua leaving, he wanted to cry but had no tears. He quickly asked, "3 billion going once. Anyone else?"
The other companies from other provinces looked at each other. After a while, someone tentatively said, "3.01 billion!"
"3.50 billion!"
Li Dong added another 40 million. This time, everyone was really confused about this guy. Was he really going to buy this piece of land?
Previously, everyone thought that he was fighting with Longhua. That was why he was bidding.
But now that Longhua had left, he was still unwilling to let go. It seemed like he was really going to buy the land.
Thinking about how Li Dong would not stop until he achieved his goal, the other companies hesitated for a while and finally gave up competing.
Even Longhua could not win against Li Dong. There was no need for them to continue competing.
Moreover, if Li Dong were to take over the land, it would be beneficial for them as well. Longhua Jiangbei had been the dominant force for too long. Now that Li Dong had emerged and waited for the war between the two, it would be beneficial for the companies that survived in the cracks.
This time, the auctioneer did not let Li Dong wait for long. After shouting three times, he slammed the hammer heavily. "Congratulations to number 26. Dong Yu Real Estate has won plot GH3511. It is also the highest priced land in this auction!"
A plot of land worth more than 3 billion. It was the most expensive plot of land in recent years.
Of course, this plot of land had not broken the record. 15 million/mu might not seem cheap, but a plot of land in Pingchuan had sold for 20 million/mu recently.
It was just that the plot of land was not big. It was only about 10 mu, and the total price was only about 300 to 400 million. That was why it was not as influential as Li Dong's plot of land.
After the last plot of land was auctioned, everyone congratulated Li Dong.
Including this plot of land, Li Dong had won three plots of land, spending a total of 5.50 billion. This was an astronomical figure in Jiangbei and the whole country.
Everyone was curious. How was this guy going to pay?
5 billion was not a small sum. The bank would not lend him so much. Even if Li Dong did not develop the land, it would be difficult for him to hoard the land. Unless Li Dong sold the land Far Away.
But Li Dong would not sell the land Far Away. In addition to the acquisition of Time Far Away, wouldn't he have to prepare 7 to 8 billion?
Everyone couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air when they thought about this.
How much was this guy's net worth?
Didn't they say his net worth was less than 1 billion last year? It had only been half a year. Even if he were to rob someone, he would not be able to get so much money.
If he did not take into account the debt and acquired Time Far Away, this guy's net worth would be close to 10 billion.
Li Dong did not care what others thought or guessed. He scanned the crowd and nodded slightly. Then, he led Shen Qian and the rest downstairs.
After they left, the auction hall was in an uproar.
There was a lot of big news today. The rise of Dong Yu, the defeat of Longhua, and even internal strife. Li Dong's net worth might be close to 10 billion …
Any of these would be big news. The business world of Jiangbei would be in for a good show.
