As noted by TASS with reference to the newspaper South China Morning Post, an apartment of 68 m2 with two bedrooms is located in Heilongjiang province. It was sold through an auction by Alibaba.

It is known that the initial price of the object was 1 yuan. More than 1.6 thousand people took part in the action.

Despite the auction value of the apartment, the man will have to pay about 2 thousand yuan (about $ 300) in the form of a mandatory tax on registration of ownership, the publication indicates.

The buyer himself said that he does not plan to move to Heilongjiang province, and wants to use the apartment as a temporary vacation spot during winter trips.
