In just a week, Wood had a certain degree of friendship with all the people here.
If you wanted to be a friend of others, you couldn't be too stupid, but you couldn't be too smart.
If you were too stupid, you would only become a tool for others to use. You couldn't be too stupid. People didn't like to be friends with fools. Maybe everyone looked like good friends, but they weren't really good friends.
At the same time, you couldn't be too smart. People were selfish by nature. It was almost a universal characteristic of the whole society to like to take advantage of others. Maybe there were some upright people in the world, but most of them were ordinary people.
Ordinary people liked to take advantage of others, but they didn't like to be taken advantage of.
Wood did a good job in this regard. Richard and several other people always asked him to do the dirtiest and most tiring work. He would refuse for a while and take it on. Sometimes he would fight back a little. But in general, he met the standards of people's friends and became everyone's good friend.
During this period of time, everyone had heard Richard talk about the legendary stories related to the rich and powerful.
Before becoming rich, they were just onions. Then, they were salesmen in stores. Then, how did they seize the opportunity to suddenly become the top people?
In addition to these, Richard bragged the most about his previous classic cooperation with Lynch. The income of hundreds of yuan a day really fascinated this group of young men.
When people heard some words once, they would only treat it as fake and laugh it off. However, if they listened to it every day, they would unknowingly think that these words might not be fake. There were even some "true stories" of famous people mixed in with them.
At this time, Wood glanced at Richard, who was chatting with a few special customers in the first row with a relaxed face. He had faintly realized that a new world was opening the door to him.
Perhaps Wood's brief absent-mindedness made his officer mistakenly think that it had something to do with him. After he wrote a check, he whispered to Wood when he passed by him. He also had needs.
His wife had complained for a long time that they were still using the very stupid multi-functional stove, which was an integrated stove with a barbecue grill under the stove.
When he bought it, both he and his wife thought that the design was too damn smart. They even thought that they could put some meat in it every day when they made dinner. By the time the meal was ready, the meat on the grill would be cooked.
But in fact, reality slapped him hard and fast. First of all, this multi-functional barbecue space was too small. Not to mention a turkey, even an ordinary chicken couldn't be stuffed in.
It was still too short. Sometimes when grilling fish, the fish had to be cut into three or four pieces and then grilled separately.
What made them even more upset was that when they needed to heat up a pizza on the damn grill, they had to turn on the fire and light up at least two burners at a time.
That was not all. The damned stove would automatically shut down once it burned for more than a minute. He had to put a pot of something on the stove to prevent the gravity sensor from turning it off.
In other words, if they wanted to heat up a pizza, they had to fill two pots with water and place them on the stove. They had to watch the water boil for a while before they could eat a hot, heated pizza!
As for the ovens that needed charcoal, they were only suitable for outdoor use if they didn't want to trigger the fire alarm.
Wood didn't completely listen to the officer's words. There was only one voice in his head. This voice told him that he had just stood there and made more than four yuan without doing anything.
He looked at Richard's position again. Richard was chatting happily with the customers. As for how to know that he was happy, it was obvious from his smile.
Wood frowned. He couldn't figure it out, but there was something hazy and visible lingering in his heart. He needed more time to explore it.
As the first stage of the auction continued, people had begun to realize that they must start early. It was possible that if they hesitated for a moment, someone would take away their opportunity.
This was also the reason why Lynch arranged this kind of auction in the first stage. It made impulsive spending more impulsive!
Most of the things in this stage had a rigid demand, so there was no need to worry about not being able to sell them. In addition, the price was far below the market, so it was easy to sell them.
In the entire first stage, there were no sects' items. This also made the reporters who came to witness the miracle exclaim in amazement. Even Feral's mouth was wide open.
He already had a feeling that Lynch would soon become famous again. This time, it wasn't a bad thing, but a good thing.
The second stage began. The first auction item directly caused a sensation in the audience!
At first, people didn't realize how crazy they would be a few minutes later. The host introduced them to a house near the center of the city, an apartment on a commercial street with its back to the sun.
This kind of house had a shortcoming, and that was the lack of sunlight. There was only continuous sunlight for two hours from morning to morning, and from 4 p.m. to 5: 30 p.m.
It was dark and maybe a little damp, but it didn't matter. This apartment was worth 32,000 yuan. This was the price it had been sold for when it was last sold.
Everyone present was not interested in this auction item. If they could casually take out 32,000 yuan, no, even if it was 2,000 yuan, they wouldn't sit there and wait for the auction to end to receive a belt that might only be worth three to five yuan.
However, when the host read out the price of the house in a surprised and off-key voice, the entire venue instantly became noisy.
"One yuan!"
The host waved the small card in his hand excitedly. Although no one could see what was written on the card from so far away, they could feel his emotions at this time. "One yuan, friends. The starting price of the full ownership of this house is only one yuan!"
Before this, he introduced the second stage of the auction process, so no one thought that one yuan could buy this house, but this didn't stop people from exploding with passion.
People stood up and shouted one after another. At this time, Richard and the others played a role. They said that they also had a microphone in their hands. When the people sitting in their seats started to shout, they could help them shout so that the audience could hear them.
The price started from one yuan and directly increased by a thousand times. Three thousand, four thousand, five thousand …
It wasn't until the price reached more than ten thousand yuan that the price increase slowed down.
But sometimes things were just like this. Everyone realized that there was a huge "profit" in this. If they could buy this house with ten thousand yuan, then even if they couldn't sell it for 32,000 yuan, it would still be easy to sell it for 20,000 yuan, right?
This was easily a profit of thousands of yuan. Most of the people sitting here had never come across such an easy opportunity to gain wealth in their lives. This made them even though they had already tried their best, and were unwilling to give up.
From the moment they joined this game, they already couldn't stop.
At this time, someone sent a card to the host's podium. The host looked at the small card and glanced at Lynch, who was standing calmly in the distance, reigniting the people's passion.
He told everyone present that Gaitnau Finance was willing to accept a mortgage loan with a valuation of 50% of the final transaction price of the house.
If the last person shouted a price of 20,000 yuan, but he only had 10,000 yuan in his hand, he didn't need to worry at all. He could borrow 10,000 yuan from Gaitnau Finance to pay for the house.
After the house was sold, the loan would be repaid, and there would be a bonus. This was a fatal temptation for many people.
As expected, the bidding price that stopped at 12,000 yuan quickly climbed to 24,000 yuan. It was less than 8,000 yuan from the peak price.
Lynch smiled. The second-hand property trade in Saibin City was still lukewarm. It wasn't like a few years ago when the economy was booming, when everyone wanted to move into the city.
The property trade in some areas had already shrunk greatly. Of course, some houses in the central area were still appreciating.
The house was sold for 32,000 yuan. In fact, when Lynch got it, he only paid 21,500 yuan for it.
In such a short time, he had already earned one thousand two hundred and fifty dollars. As for the other one thousand two hundred and fifty dollars … His eyes stopped on a young man named Wood.
At this time, his face was red as he was quoting for his client. His client seemed to be determined to get this house!
Looking at these energetic young people, Lynch smiled encouragingly.
