Chapter: 2568

Participants in judicial auctions all want to save money and snag a good deal. If a house worth one million is on the market, everyone hopes to get it for 80% off, or failing that, 90%. Once it goes above 9 times the original price, the attraction will dwindle.

So, this kind of auction usually doesn't have much meaning.

Exactly at 10 o'clock, the auctioneer stepped onto the stage.

Due to everything being simple and efficient, there wasn't much unnecessary prelude, and the auctioneer immediately got down to business, saying: "Thank you all for participating in this judicial auction today. Our first item up for bidding is a used Audi A6 owned by Jinling Bo Wei Company, with three years of registration and 11,300 kilometers on it. The starting price is 150,000 yuan, and the minimum increment is 10,000 yuan. Let's begin now."

Cars like this one, with similar conditions, usually sell for around 210,000 yuan in the normal market.

Since the ceiling price is 210,000 yuan, everyone was bidding very reasonably.

After several rounds of bidding, the price reached 180,000 yuan, and many bidders dropped out, except for two who were still determined to bid.

However, as the price approached the ceiling, the remaining two bidders became extremely cautious, and after a few minutes, one of them bid up the price to 195,000 yuan, while the other stopped bidding.

The auctioneer then announced that the first item had been sold for 195,000 yuan.

Inside the room, Chen Zeheng glanced through the auction data and told Ye Cheng: "Young master, there were a total of 11 cars participating in the auction today. After the car auction, we'll start bidding on houses. Your parents' old house will be the first one up for bidding, with an opening price of 880,000 yuan."

"I've already contacted the driver, and no matter what the price is, he'll follow through and definitely help you buy this property!"

With a light nod, Ye Cheng indicated his consent.

He was also determined to get this old house.

After all, this set of old houses carried immense meaning for himself and his parents, as it was where they spent their last moments together.

As the cars participating in the auction gradually disappeared, the auction entered the real estate bidding phase.

This time, there were 13 properties participating in the judicial auction, but the one with the lowest starting price was the old house that Ye Cheng's parents used to live in.

The main reason for this was that the old house had already been designated by Jinling as a protected historical building, not only prohibiting demolition and renovation but also prohibiting any changes to its original structure.

More importantly, regardless of who bought this old house, they would have certain obligations to protect it.

The house was already very old, and without being able to demolish or renovate for greater economic value, even if he wanted to, it wouldn't be allowed, so basically no one was interested in buying it.

Regardless of who bought this house, there would be no opportunity to transform it.

However, Ye Chen and Du Haiqing were both waiting for this batch of houses to be launched.

Because the starting price of this house was the lowest, as soon as it entered the real estate auction segment, the auctioneer directly projected pictures of this property onto the big screen, opening with: "Today we are going to auction off the first property, located at Old Street Entrance, a protected old mansion. The specific information about this old mansion can be found in the auction booklet, so we won't repeat it here. Let's start the bidding at 880,000 yuan, and now let's begin!"

The auctioneer's words had barely fallen when Du Haiqing directly raised his card, opening with: "1 million."

"Great!" The auctioneer immediately said: "34th bidder offers 1 million. Is there anyone who can bid higher than 1 million?"

A middle-aged man sitting in the corner with a plain face immediately raised his card and opened with: "15 million!" JrNovels.com
