Chapter 277: Bidding is the way to go
Mai Ke then spends a while talking about who Jesus is, and discusses that only by trusting Jesus can you be saved. Because every human being is a sinner, the immediate consequence of this sin is death. This was prescribed by God at the creation of the world.
And the core content of the gospel is that those who deserve to die according to their sins can not die because of God's mercy. Anyone on the execution ground who hears the news that he has been forgiven and can die does not think that this is great news?
God has told people the good news, and he has also clearly told people how to combine this good news with their own lives, which is to repent and confess their sins and believe that Jesus is Lord.
Sinners who were to be executed in the execution ground, through their trust in the Lord Jesus, combined the salvation of the Lord Jesus with their own lives, and turned the good news into their own good deeds.
Trusting the Lord Jesus is a foundation. It is only on this basis that God's blessings will come unhindered to believers. Because the Father gave all the power, glory, and wealth of this world to His only begotten Son, Jesus.
Finally, Mai Ke made a call to all those who are willing to accept God's salvation and desire God's blessings to raise their hands and show that they are willing to break with the sinners of the past and become a new person in Jesus.
About one-fifth of the audience raised their hands on the spot. The military pastor, who had only arrived yesterday, was very busy and led these people who raised their hands to the side.
A total of 200,000 people attended the main venue, so about 40,000 or 50,000 people were ushered out.
The same was done in other breakout sessions. It's just that these people who raised their hands at the branch venue will then be gathered in Niangzishui Village. Mai Ke has further arrangements.
As for those who raised their hands from other places to participate in the drinking water conference, Mai Ke had already planned that they would be gathered in a newly built building to participate in a seven-day training. Then, with the mission of preaching the gospel, he returned to his place and began to work for God.
Tan Guo, the master of ceremonies of the conference, announced that the third agenda item is now open. All those who do not raise their hands can immediately start purchasing Niangzi Water, and those who have a skill and are willing to move into Niangzi Water can go to the recruitment office to sign up.
"Before that, I had 10,000 bottles of water here, and I had to bid for them. Everyone can make an offer, and the one with the highest price will get it!"
Of course, this is also Mai Ke's idea. In order to improve the name of the lady's water. To this end, he also sent someone to Gwangju to invite a well-known auctioneer. At that time, the auction industry was not yet popular, especially in the north, and many people had never heard of it.
This move greatly increased the interest of the crowd. Meantime. It also stirred up some people's desire to win. I'm worried that I can't buy the top number!
Due to the short notice and the large number of people, the auction will certainly not be as orderly as the official auction. So when the auctioneer shook three inches without rotting his tongue, he said the benefits of the first lot of lots. The first one pushed out the No. 1 lady water.
"The No. 1 bottled lady's water, the unique No. 1 in the world, the unprecedented No. 1 is now available for everyone to bid - starting price: one million taels of silver!"
This is also a strategy of Maike, in order to exclude those buyers who do not have purchasing power, the starting price is deliberately set at a height close to the ideal price. This trick alone turned away the vast majority of people who wanted to buy but had a shriveled wallet.
Sure enough, many of the people who were ready to try their hands were honest and sat there quietly without moving. Only a dozen people are still the same, apparently the big money of that era.
The competition between these people was red at the beginning!
A burly fat old man, while turning the two black iron galls with two or two big steamed buns in his hand, said angrily: "This No. 1 lady will win my Northeast Bear! I will give 1.5 million!"
Let's say, the eyes are fierce, the iron gall in his hand turns faster, and there is a dull crashing sound, obviously a solid iron guy.
As soon as three or four people remembered, they were swept away by the fierce light of the Northeast Bear, their legs weakened, and they sat back in place, speechless.
Some people are afraid of this Northeast bear, but some people don't take him seriously at all. Just next to the fat body of this Northeast bear, a shrill voice sounded: "The old bear is so majestic! Two million!"
The Northeast Bear was proud there, and he didn't watch out for something wrong around him, so he couldn't help but be angry, Huo Di stood up, like a mountain, and it seemed that the Southwest Fox was small, and the big hand was about to catch it. However, halfway through, he took it back and said angrily: "Why are you against me everywhere? I can't be polite to you this time!"
The Northeast bear was in a hurry, and omitted "100,000", turning it into a number in the north saying that people are "unreliable", and I don't know whether to scold others or say himself.
Everyone burst into laughter. The auctioneer couldn't help but laugh, of course he knew what it meant. And he also made a joke: "Two hundred and fifty-one! Two hundred and fifty-two! If no one bids, two hundred and five will be this fat man's!"
At that time, it was a big compliment to say that people were fat, so the auctioneer directly called him fat.
Southwest Fox hurriedly said: "Three million!" After finishing speaking, he added: "Although you really want to be two hundred and five, I just won't let you get your wish." ”
"Three hundred and five!" this fat man has two hundred and five plus one.
"Four million!" the Southwest Fox did not give in.
In this way, the two rose alternately, until they reached 10 million.
At this time, someone couldn't bear it anymore, and a crisp voice sounded: "You turtle speed won't end until tomorrow night." I'll give 20 million! 10 million plus 10 million, who will play with my Southeast Phoenix?"
The Northeast Bear and the Southwest Fox are silent, who dares to compete with this aunt!
The auctioneer called three times in a row, and finally the final word was made, and Niangzi Water No. 1 fell to Southeast Phoenix at a sky-high price of 20 million.
The one who followed it was the 9,999 bottles of water in the back. The reserve price for each group of bids is the same, which is 1 million, but the number has increased significantly. The second set of nine bottles is gone!
Although it is not as precious as the first bottle, two to ten is not trivial! As a result, the competition is more encouraging! In the end, he was won by the median tiger, spending 30 million taels of silver.
It is estimated that it is impossible to buy it again after winning a vote, and the subsequent ninety bottles and nine hundred bottles were won by the Northeast Bear and the Southwest Fox respectively, and the price was also 30 million taels of silver.
The last 9,000 bottles, no one expected to be snatched by Zhang Wen's representative, and it cost 40 million taels of silver!
Later, Mai Ke thought about it and realized what the problem was. No wonder Zhang Wen specially commissioned Zhang Jue to ask him yesterday if he could pay on credit if he could buy it. Mai Ke replied without hesitation, yes.
Hence today's scene. This is enough to show that this shrewd county master must be full of confidence, firmly believing that he will soon earn back his capital and bring back huge profits.
Zhang Wen really did it, and the 9,000 bottles of water then stirred up the collector's market and became a collector's favorite.
As for the price, of course, it is proportional to the popularity of the market. A bottle of water, which cost 4,500 taels of silver, was sold for 10 million taels of silver!
This is not counting those with special numbers, such as four sixes, four eights, four nines, and the selling price is directly equivalent to the first number!
And the 10,000 number greatly surpassed the number one! In the end, after several turns, it went directly into the royal treasury! Of course, only the emperor can have the 10,000 characters.
As for the unlucky numbers, such as four fours, some people buy them, and they are directly bought by foreigners, so they don't care what your homonym means.
The bottle of four sevens was bought by an old Jewish businessman, and in Jewish culture, seven represents the Great Perfection, let alone four sevens!
The Jews had money, all world-class, many times larger than the Manchu money of that time, and besides, as long as they felt the need, it was absolutely the opposite of their original image of miserly merchants. As a result, this bottle of water was sold for 100 million taels of silver!
The first 1,000 bottles, due to their scarcity, cannot be put on the market at all, but are in a state of no price. Besides, a single number, where is there four eights or something?
As for private granting and receiving, it has nothing to do with the market. (To be continued......)
PS: Bid for the first batch of 10,000 bottles of lady's water!
