Chapter 40
The Auction, The Disruptor, Big Spender!

【Ding, Mong Kok solid color mission complete, reward ten million US dollars, B-level management talent】

In the car, Ye Haochen, who was on his way to the auction, suddenly heard the system's prompt.

The Number Gang had moved against Tung Sing a few days ago, and the two gangs fought in Mong Kok.

A smile curled on Ye Haochen's lips. It seemed that Ah Wu and the others were moving quickly.

The two missions, Hong Kong's richest man and world's richest man, were half-complete.

As long as he waited until Forbes announced the list at the beginning of next year, the missions would be completed.

He needed a S-level secretary team. As his business grew, a secretary team was essential.

Most importantly, he was most looking forward to the mysterious gift package.

It's worth mentioning that since the interview aired, Tseung Kwan O has been very lively.

Many capitals have poured into Tseung Kwan O, all vying for land.

Tseung Kwan O, once ignored, has suddenly become hot property.

Mong Kok is now solid color, so next is Cheung Sha Wan.

Cheung Sha Wan is not large and doesn't have much oil and water. There aren't many gangs either.

It's not difficult for the Number Gang to take over Cheung Sha Wan. The problem is Kowloon Tong.

An hour later, the black luxury car fleet arrived at a hotel in Central.

The auction was held in the hotel. There were luxury cars parked outside.

And there were also many media. After all, the competition for the golden land auctioned every year was fierce.

When they saw the Ye family's fleet, the reporters outside lit up.

All media outlets were constantly taking pictures. Sure enough, Ye Haochen had arrived.

If he participated, who could compete with him?

Even all the tycoons attending the auction combined wouldn't have as much money as him.

He Yong and the others got out of the car first, vigilantly watching their surroundings.

After Ye Haochen got out of the car, he glanced around and then walked towards the hotel.

The auction was held in the hall on the third floor. Most of the people were already there.

"Mr. Ye..."

Upon seeing Ye Haochen walk in, many people stood up.

Many of those present were forced to smile bitterly. They all wanted the golden land today.

But with Ye Haochen here, how could they compete?

Ye Haochen nodded at everyone and then walked towards Li Zhaoji's direction.

"You're a focus wherever you go, kid."

Li Zhaoji glanced at everyone, then smiled at Ye Haochen.

Ye Haochen also smiled and sat down.

The auction quickly began. It was held by the Hong Kong government, with the government official speaking first.

This auction would auction off thirteen plots of land.

The first one was quickly put up for auction. The starting price was 8 million Hong Kong dollars, a plot of land in Yuen Long.

Yuen Long was arguably the poorest district in Hong Kong, full of villages.

There weren't many interested, but it didn't get passed over.

It was finally bought by a Hong Kong real estate company for 30 million.

Mainly, this plot of land wasn't small, around 13,000 square meters.

Buying a 13,000 square meter plot of land for 30 million would be very cheap in later years.

But now, in the 1980s, 30 million wasn't a small amount.

Most importantly, after buying it, there were still costs for dealing with the Yuen Long villages.

Hong Kong villages were always known for being tough and domineering.

"Next, we will auction off plot number 1058, located in Sai Kung..."

The auctioneer took a deep breath and excitedly introduced the second plot of land.

This plot in Sai Kung was bigger, around 26,000 square meters, but the location was also very remote.

"Forty million..."

When the price reached 35 million, Ye Haochen suddenly spoke.

His voice fell, and the entire auction hall went silent.

Especially those real estate companies that were competing, they looked at each other.

"Forty-three million..."

A middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then still raised his sign.

"Forty-eight million..."

Before he finished speaking, everyone saw Ye Haochen raise his sign again.

It was clear that he was determined to get this plot.

The middle-aged man shook his head with a wry smile. He couldn't compete.

Your entire fortune couldn't match a single digit of his.

Li Zhaoji looked at Ye Haochen curiously. This plot wasn't in a good location.

"It's mainly close to the pier..."

Ye Haochen smiled faintly and said softly.

Of course, he had his own plan. Most of Hong Kong's seafood came from Sai Kung.

And tens of millions were nothing to him.

The third plot, Clear Water Bay, was bought by Li Zhaoji for 60 million.

The fourth plot was in North Point. This one attracted many people to compete.

Finally, after seeing Ye Haochen raise his sign, everyone gave up.

The auctioneer felt bitter in his heart. He was losing money. The North Point plot should have fetched at least 60-80 million.

But Ye Haochen raised his sign, and everyone gave up.

He bought it for 57 million. He was a complete disruptor.

As time passed, the auction soon came to an end.

During this time, Ye Haochen only bid once, buying a plot in Sham Shui Po for 80 million.

The last one was the highlight, a golden plot in Central, the land king of the year.

Soon, the auctioneer began explaining, occasionally looking at Ye Haochen.

The starting price was 280 million, the most expensive plot in recent years.

Ye Haochen didn't raise his sign. Instead, he smiled.

Let the bullets fly for a while. Li Zhaoji was also a little helpless.

Soon, the price reached 360 million. Those who could compete were all large companies.

The small real estate companies didn't have that kind of money.

Li Ka-shing also joined the competition, shouting the highest price of 390 million.

But this price was broken soon.

"Four hundred and eighty million..."

At this time, Ye Haochen, who had been silent, suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

The voice echoed through the hall, and everyone gave a wry smile.

The auctioneer's mouth twitched, and he looked at the competing tycoons.

Here he comes again. But 480 million wasn't a small amount either.

Is 480 million a lot? It is. Most people here couldn't afford it, unless they took out a loan.

Seeing that no one was competing, the auctioneer finally brought down his gavel. Out of thirteen plots, Ye Haochen bought four, spending almost 600 million.

PS; If you have flowers, throw one in. And don't forget the monthly ticket. Let's aim for 8,000 flowers!
