1037. There is a problem
At the beginning of the second round of auction, the bluefin tuna pulled out was three meters long and six hundred and forty pounds. The fat rate of the belly was 14.8%, and the comprehensive fat rate was 14.4%. This is already a good tuna.
Although the old auctioneer is not young, his voice is still loud and he has excellent ability to control the atmosphere and rhythm. He shouted out the price of the fish in a high-pitched voice: "The starting price is 75,000 euros!"
Qin Shiou rubbed his nose. The unit price of more than 100 euros was indeed high enough. It seems that the tuna market is indeed very popular this year.
Since the past two years, governments have been crying and shouting about the economic crisis, but even so, the transaction volume of the luxury goods market remains high.
Bluefin tuna is also a type of luxury consumption. The price of 100 euros per pound is actually not expensive for diners, but there are no diners who come to participate in the auction. They are all owners of large sea fish products companies or restaurants. They buy the fish for a unit price of 100 euros per pound. When they are sold in the future, they will be sold according to the "films". One pound can be sold for thousands of euros!
The price is so high that tuna diners from all over the world, especially Japanese, are still flocking to it. This is like the beef imported from Japan to a high-end restaurant in New York. To eat this, you have to queue up to book your order.
Butler also wanted to learn Japanese Wagyu beef and play hunger marketing, but Qin Shiou rejected this because there was too much seafood in the fishing ground and it had to be dumped in large quantities. As long as the price was stabilized, the supply would be fine.
The hunger marketing of wagyu beef is not because the Japanese want to stir-fry its value, but because this kind of cattle is really hard to breed, unlike Qin Shiou, where the fish fry is sprinkled into the fishing ground, it doesn’t have to worry about it.
The auctioneer's voice fell, and Charles Morrie, the third son of the Mory family, raised his hand and said, "76,000 yuan!"
The old auctioneer immediately pointed his finger at him and shouted loudly: "That gentleman bid 76,000 yuan!"
"Seventy-seven thousand yuan!" A Japanese young man next to Takata Tezuka also raised his hand and shouted.
Qin Shiou looked in the direction of several people, noticed that Aoyama, who was beside the Ike, smiled at Takata Tezuka, raised his hand and shouted: "80,000 yuan!"
His price was raised relatively high, and he added 3,000 euros at a time. It was obvious that he wanted to argue with Takata Tezuka.
Aoyama Ibene has great ambitions for this year's Tokyo tuna market. He won the fish king at the Tsukiji Market Auction. The media and newspapers made his company Dali Rilu Co., Ltd. popular. He will replace Takata Tezuka to become the new generation ruler of the tuna empire in Tokyo.
Takata Tezuka is now keeping a low profile and ignores the comments from the outside world. Seeing Aoyama by the Ine, he shook his head with a smile, signaling that the young people around him don’t need to raise the price.
Regarding the abnormal behavior of the old opponent, Aoyama Ibi was full of questions. He was the person who knew Takata Tezuka best here and knew how tough this compatriot was.
But now as far as he knows, Kiyomura Co., Ltd. does not have much high-quality black tuna reserves. How can he continue to rule the tuna market in Tokyo? It is useless to rely on tough skills alone, and it is hard to cook without rice. So why don’t he rush to take pictures of these high-quality tunas?
As Qin Shiou knew, Dali Rilu Co., Ltd. led by Aoyama of Jingbian won a great victory at the Tsukiji Market auction that ended soon. In addition to the Fish King, they also shot a large number of bluefin tunas.
At that time, Aoyama by the well was almost astonishing as he could. As long as Takata Tezuka took a fish, he would definitely get in and carry it with him until the end, and snatched a large number of fish from Takata Tezuka.
In fact, the tuna reserves of Dali Rilu Co., Ltd. are already sufficient. This time, I came to participate in the auction. Aoyama from Jingbian was not for the fish, but wanted to make trouble for Tezuka Takata and let this old opponent spend more money to buy less fish.
Therefore, when Takataichi Tezuka quoted, he raised the price significantly. If he wanted to cheat his old opponent, he would not take the bait at all.
Takata Tezuka did not offer, and Charles Morrie raised the price again: "71,000 yuan!"
Aoyama Ibida also shook his head. He just wanted to attack Takata Tezuka, his old rival. As for the Mori brothers in the United States, there was no conflict between them, and there was no need to spend a high price to buy tuna that he no longer needed.
Then another big fish pulled out. This time the weight of the fish was directly increased to 700 pounds, and the fat rate of the belly was also good. The starting price was 110,000 euros.
It was still the first brothers Morris to raise their hands and shouted: "112,000 euros!"
Immediately afterwards, two other seawater products company owners also offered the price, raising the price to 115,000 euros.
Tezuka Takata seemed to be unable to sit still, and shouted loudly before Aoyama beside the well: "120,000 euros!"
Charles Morrie immediately accepted the price: "122,000 euros!"
Tezuka Takata's forehead was faintly exposed, and he shouted in a deep voice: "125,000 euros!"
The price is relatively high. The Mori brothers gathered together to discuss it for a few words and did not follow up. Other seafood manufacturers also shook their heads. 125,000 euros are the limit price of this fish, and there is no benefit when buying a higher price.
In this way, Aoyama from the Imperial area finally had the opportunity to bid. He raised his hand and looked at Takata Tezuka provocatively and said, "130,000 euros!"
Tezuka Takata looked at Aoyama by the Inei not far away and said, "Kun Inoue, you are very ambitious."
Aoyama, Ibian bowed slightly to him and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, Tezuka, I like this fish very much. I'm afraid I'll take my love with you."
Tezuka Takata's mouth twitched a few times, and she said loudly as if she was gritting her teeth: "140,000 euros!"
Aoyama, who was born in the Ine, enjoyed the feeling of forcing Takata Tezuka into a desperate situation. He lazily raised his hand and said, "145,000 euros!"
He expected that Takata Tezuka would have to capture most of the remaining fish, because there would be no tuna auctions since Amsterdam. If you want to buy bluefin tuna, you can only collect it through scattering, and it would be very slow to collect it like that.
But he guessed wrongly. When he quoted this price, Takata Tezuka did not follow the price, but instead snorted coldly and sat down, his face gloomy and didn't know what he was thinking.
Qin Shiou felt that this was abnormal. Mrs. Takata Tezuka was low-key. Could it be that something went wrong with his economy? Otherwise, with his personality, even if he knew he was at a loss, he would have won these fish. This was how Takata Tezuka did when he auctioned the Fish King last year.
The tuna that came out later became more and more quality, and the weight was getting bigger and bigger, so the price naturally rose.
Tezuka Takata became active and almost always offered the offer. Aoyama Ibiya was waiting for him specifically. As soon as he made a offer, Aoyama Ibiya would raise the price significantly. But Takata Tezuka didn't seem to want to win the favor with him. After Aoyama Ibiya he shut up, but the Morris brothers would keep up with the price.
Jingbian Qingshan did not offer the price with the Morri brothers, and the others' quotes were more rational. In this way, Qin Shiou found some problems! (To be continued.)
