Text Chapter 403: Making Money
Nicky and Jessie Zhou have dated a few times, but he hasn't told her that he wants to be his own girlfriend. They are now in boyfriend and girlfriend, and the relationship between friends with benefits is still blurred. Nicky felt that maybe Jessie Zhou still had some concerns about the age of the two, or for some other reason, but she still had time to wait for him until he could make a choice.
At this time, Jeff on the stage said, "Congratulations to Mr. No. 9, the transaction is worth 10,000 US dollars!"
Another $10,000 deal came out. Most of the next few orders were based on this number, and many of Zhou Jiexi’s friends also took a few orders, but the number of fifty or one hundred watermelons was indeed getting less and less, and gradually it was three hundred and five One hundred, and one thousand pieces are sold on the stage.
Fortunately, there are some people in front who don't need too much, and they have already bought enough, so they don't need to worry too much about the large number of watermelons on the stage. However, after the quantity increased, the prices on the stage became more and more astonishing. A thousand watermelons alone fetched more than two hundred thousand dollars.
You must know that if you buy a Lamborghini Diablo sports car in the United States, it only costs more than 200,000 U.S. dollars, while the price of a Dodge Viper sports car is less than 100,000 U.S. dollars. There are more expensive ones, but Zhou Jiexi's little daughter-in-law lives by keeping money, asking him to spend so much money is like cutting his flesh.
Even if you buy a jet plane in the United States, if the price is not high, you can spend more than two hundred yuan, but Zhou Jiexi only needs 10,000 watermelons to buy a jet plane, which almost makes people feel Is it a handjob! However, Zhou Jiexi's watermelon is now completely considered a luxury, and it is still a luxury with a high price.
Things went beyond Zhou Jiexi's expectations. Up to now, none of the watermelons in the auction have been sold. It is obvious that he underestimated the savvy of the capitalists. Those present who are not stupid will know that as long as today's auction ends, the watermelons from Sky Farm have been publicized by so many people.
Coupled with the uniqueness of watermelon that rejects imitations, and his wonderful taste, this will definitely become a hot seller for the rich. And as long as they resell these watermelons before Zhou Jiexi's next batch of watermelons comes out within three to four months, I believe they will not only get a lot of profits, but also gain the friendship of some people. Maybe.
When Zhou Jiexi was in the middle of the auction, he had already put his heart down. 10,000 watermelons were sold to Stan Kroenke for 2.05 million. When he looked at Zhou Jiexi, he smiled at him, raised the champagne in his hand and shook it in greeting, Zhou Jiexi didn't mind having a warm welcome with this person who spent two million to buy watermelons, and toasted him .
"It's already been auctioned for more than 20 million yuan, and it's only halfway through. It seems that we may sell more than 4,000 yuan this time!" Atwood was calculating by himself again, but what he said The sound, at least the farm staff around him can also hear it.
"Yeah, we made a lot of money this time." Zhou Jiexi also nodded. 'It seems that I finally have the money to buy a sports car at this moment, Nim, I have been in the United States for so long that I can't even afford to spend the money on a sports car, so I can't use the money to buy stocks now. We have to enjoy it for a while, but the extra tens of millions owed to the bank seem to be repaid in the next few months. '
Zhou Jiexi was thinking in his heart, and the auction over there was still going on. This will be another auction of more than two million yuan. In fact, most of the rich people present now agree that the price of a watermelon is two hundred dollars, so when the auction is made, most of them will Pull it to this acceptable price, or if the competition continues, time will pass, and those who want to buy will add the price to this price.
However, after arriving here, it seems impossible to increase the price significantly. A few people who obviously wanted to hoard more habits did indeed raise the price higher when they played later than when they played earlier. Because the number is not much, everyone can calculate it if they are smarter. There are really not many watermelons worth 200,000.
The most important thing is that they are afraid that Zhou Jiexi will come later to bundle up and increase the quantity to tens of thousands at once, which will make things difficult, so now they are sweeping as much as they have. In order to avoid the above accidents later, it may be the intuition of the businessmen, and they really guessed right.
In the end, a number of 20,000 appeared, which indeed confirmed the conjecture of several people. Immediately a smile appeared. When Zhou Jiexi reached the next tens of thousands, he knew that the overall situation had been settled, so there was really no need to worry about it. We have started with tens of millions, and we are still worried about the remaining few million. That is a trivial matter now.
"Dad, it looks like Jesse is going to make a lot of money this time," Reed Jobs said to his father, Steve Jobs.
"Yes, this young man doesn't look simple! I just didn't expect him to be so good at cultivating biological plants. However, his ability to make medicines is also commendable. He is really a talented young man!" Steve sighed.
Reed Jobs immediately thought of the kind that his father was using, which is called 'fragrance' in the East. Hearing from his father that it was made and prepared by Zhou Jiexi himself, Reed couldn't help feeling a little admiration for this man.
"Is this the magic of the thousands of years of cultural heritage in the East? It's really great!"
"Haney, congratulations." Nicky Hilton kissed Zhou Jiexi and said to him, "I didn't expect these watermelons to be sold at such a high price. This price is as magical as it is."
"Boss, all of our watermelons have really sold at such a high price, my God, this is so exciting, so exciting!" Allen was a little excited and incoherent, almost shaking his girlfriend's hand Woke up.
Atwood will be much better. After all, he is a person who has experienced it, that is, he lost his composure at the beginning. Compared with his son, he is much calmer now. "It seems that this will be one of our main products in the future. It seems that Try to grow more watermelons." He was also thinking about this question in his heart.
"Yeah, it's really something worth celebrating. Something that none of us thought of actually appeared in front of us like this. But what I can confirm now is that this thing is true, because we have received the previous Checks from those people." Zhou Jiexi said.
He paused, "Guys, the watermelons from Sky Farm will be famous all over the world. I think today is just the beginning. In the future, more and richer people will come to auction and buy our watermelons. This is just the beginning. This is just the beginning!" Zhou Jiexi muttered happily.
Everyone on the farm did not doubt his words. As long as someone reported the price of this watermelon, those reporters would not let it go. Such a good piece of news material. After a few operations at that time, this watermelon is probably really famous all over the world.
What's more, there are many celebrities and rich people in the farm today. This is a typical hot spot. When the security personnel were just outside, they found that many reporters had followed the footsteps of those stars to the outskirts of the farm.
However, this is a private territory, plus the place is huge, and there are tall and burly security personnel, let alone those reporters who sneaked in, even with binoculars they couldn't see inside. For professions like journalists, whether they are men or women, they all have a strong curiosity. The more secretive things are, the more exciting and happy they are.
"Looks like we'll have to give it a nice name!" said a cowboy.
"Green Elf, I already thought about this when I registered. From now on, all the watermelons we go out will be marked with this logo!"
"Sounds so apt!"
While the farm was bustling, Zhou Jiexi didn't know that the outside of his farm was also bustling, and piles of reporters were blocked outside the door. Of course, it wasn't the iron gate, but the place where the security guard stood outside.
"Hey, buddy, you also received the news?" A reporter stood outside for a long time, quite helplessly, and asked a reporter from another newspaper next to him.
"No, I came here with Steve Jobs, and their condition doesn't look like they came to a poet's party. I heard that an auction is being held here." Another reporter also said.
"Steve Jobs, I didn't expect him to come too. When I came, I saw several other directors of Apple, as well as some of their company's executives. My God, today is the company's Is it a meeting of people?"
"I don't think so. I received news that the most recent popular idol, Justin Bieber, appeared here. And I have been here for a day. I suspect that he may be here to steal a woman!" Another The reporter also said.
"A pop singer? How could he come to these people's parties?" Someone asked.
"Who knows! What the hell!"
"Yeah, I also met Chris Hanke, the owner of the Golden State Warriors, Stan Kroenke, the owner of the Nuggets, Mark Zuckerberg and Sean from Facebook, these ti rich people also came Yes, there are also wealthy Chinese...a lot of people came today."
"It seems that the masters here have a lot of intersections and connections!"
"Yeah, I even saw Paris Hilton, and Donald Trump, the rich man from the reality show, seemed to be in!"
"The upstart is there?"
"Yeah, I still know his car!"
