My Multiple Identities Revealed After Marrying the Bigshot-Chapter 485: Really Don’t Understand What She Is Doing
Chapter 485: Chapter 485: Really Don’t Understand What She Is Doing
The company that didn’t win the land, like the Lin Family father and son, also had no intention of bidding on other plots and left the scene early.
Some seats in the venue were now vacant.
But everyone couldn’t help but wonder when they saw the Lin Family father and son still sitting there, could it be they had their eyes on another plot of land?
The recent circumstances of Lin’s weren’t so comfortable, could they really bring out so much money to invest in so many plots?
Or was it because they hadn’t spent the money just now, therefore they had a Plan B?
Someone had already asked, "President Lin, are you interested in other plots later on?"
Mr. Lin responded with a regretful and bitter smile, "No, we were only interested in the first one, which Zhenglin got."
"So you guys..." why haven’t you left?
"Ha ha, we’re staying to watch the excitement, to learn and accumulate some experience," Mr. Lin said without much thought, speaking spontaneously.
Only after he finished speaking did he realize that he had said the same thing Youxi had said at the beginning!
Indeed, the expressions of the people around him were odd.
You’re staying here to watch others bid on land as a learning experience?
What experience is there to accumulate?
The others said with a smile, "President Lin, you’re not hiding some clever strategy, are you?"
"A misunderstanding, a misunderstanding; what strategy could I possibly have?" Mr. Lin waved his hands, speaking with heartfelt sincerity.
"Ha ha ha ha," the crowd joined Mr. Lin in forced laughter.
If there’s no profit to be made, why would you sit idle here without attending to work?
Accumulating experience?
You’re fooling children!
Following this, several more plots were auctioned off, and the crowd noticed the Lin Family father and son showed no signs of action.
They did not participate in the bidding.
Doubts started to creep in among the crowd.
Could it be that the Lin Family father and son were really planning to bid on nothing and were merely here as spectators?
What were they doing here idly?
Surely it couldn’t really be about accumulating experience, could it?
What sort of experience in land bidding is there to gain?
Even newcomers wouldn’t bother with such things.
Let alone the Lin Family father and son.
At this moment, the staff on stage said, "Now, we are going to auction off a ’land king’."
"Land king? I hadn’t heard there was a land king up for auction today?" Someone said, clearly puzzled.
"Land king? There’s actually a land king today?"
By now, people looked at Mr. Lin differently.
"President Lin, are you staying here for the land king?" someone asked, "Did you catch wind of it beforehand?"
"No, no," Mr. Lin shook his head vigorously, "I really didn’t know there was a land king today."
He truly did not know.
"President Lin, you are being modest. If you didn’t know, why stay here so long? I knew there was something odd when you said you were here to gain experience. Turns out you were here for the land king."
"President Lin, has Lin’s recently found a lucrative opportunity? You were just bidding on the first plot, and now you’re here for the land king."
Mr. Lin: "..."
It seems this can’t be clarified.
He genuinely didn’t know about the land king.
"This ’land king’ is located at..." the staff on the stage continued the introduction.
Mr. Lin genuinely did not know about the land king, but there were indeed people in the venue who knew and had come specifically for it.
Although the others were unaware, since they had encountered a land king, they also wrote their bids on the spot.
Acquiring such a land king, as long as it was within what Ta’en could afford, would be profitable.
Mr. Lin truly did not know about the land king today, but now he did the same as everyone else.
He also hastily wrote down a price and submitted it.
But not surprisingly, it went to one of the few who had known about the land king today.
And Lu Youxi also knew there was a land king today.
But now, the land king was too big for Youshu Real Estate to swallow.
One can’t get fat with one bite; take it slow.
Youxi was patient.
And the people around Mr. Lin, seeing that he too had submitted a price,
"President Lin, you really treat us like outsiders. Clearly, you knew there was a land king today." Stop pretending.
Mr. Lin: "..."
The matter really was beyond clarification.
"If I had known, I would have been determined to get it," Mr. Lin could only explain, "Didn’t I also fail to get it?"
But the others clearly did not believe him.
You didn’t get it because of Lin’s limited capability.
It’s because you couldn’t offer a better price.
This doesn’t conflict with you knowing about the land king in advance.
Moreover, it also proves Lin’s incompetence.
Even knowing there was a land king today, you were more informed than others but still couldn’t get it.
Tsk, tsk.
Embarrassing.
Mr. Lin saw the expressions of the people around him and was so angry it hurt.
And however he tried to explain, no one believed him.
Mr. Lin could only stew in his frustration and couldn’t help glancing at Lu Youxi again.
But he saw Lu Youxi sitting there, treating the auction as a source of entertainment, smiling, eyes narrowed slightly, looking quite content.
The more he watched Youxi’s demeanor, the angrier he became.
For some reason, even though Youxi was young and seemed inexperienced,
He always felt like he was being played by Youxi.
It made him more and more irate.
Most people hadn’t expected a land king to appear today.
It added quite a bit of amusement to the auction.
So much so that after the land king was auctioned off, people did not leave.
Wondering if there would be more unexpected surprises.
"The next plot is the last to be auctioned off today," the staff said, "This plot is located in Xiangyang District by the North Fourth Ring Road. It’s a large area and the price is low."
The crowd murmured among themselves, "North Fourth Ring Road? What a remote place."
"Is it even still considered the Imperial Capital beyond the Second Ring?"
"The Third Ring is already quite remote, let alone the Fourth Ring which is practically uninhabited."
"What would you do with it after buying? Just stare at it?"
"Bidding for this plot is simply a waste of money."
"With no surrounding infrastructure, building residential complexes or hotels would attract nobody, it’s asking for losses."
"Today has really been enlightening. We’ve seen a land king, and now such a godforsaken hole."
No one present submitted a bid.
Mr. Lin also did not expect that such a plot would be auctioned today.
Lin Jingshen turned to look at Lu Youxi and suddenly froze.
"Dad, take a look, I’m not seeing things, am I?" Lin Jingshen hurriedly spoke to Mr. Lin, "It looks like Lu Youxi has submitted a bid."
"What?" Mr. Lin followed his gaze and caught the sight clearly.
Mr. Lin couldn’t help saying, "Is she out of her mind? She doesn’t bid on all those other plots, but bids on this one?"
"The area is large, but it’s so remote, it’s bound to just deteriorate in her hands," Mr. Lin said with schadenfreude, "Could it be that Youxi is just being cheap, thinking the price is low, the land is sizeable, and she’s actually making a profit?"
"Who knows," Lin Jingshen said with a frown, "I really can’t understand what she’s doing."
"To say she has money? She didn’t have it for the earlier plots," continued Lin Jingshen. "But to say she’s broke, she apparently has money to waste on this worthless land."
