Chapter 028: Calculating with Each Other
The singing and selling continues.
In the expectant eyes of everyone, Shopkeeper Yan slowly took out a black stick-like thing the thickness of a child's arm from the red cloth package.
Those who sat close immediately noticed that there were two pieces of highly transparent glass on the stick-shaped object, and they didn't know the other materials.
High transparent glass is definitely a rare treasure in the Northern Song Dynasty.
This can be seen from the fact that a glass mirror was sold for 700 copper coins.
"This is Ruri?"
"What a waste, two pieces of glass so clear are embedded in an unknown stick. Master Li shook his head bitterly.
There was a lot of talk.
Shopkeeper Yan waved his hand.
A few small guys immediately stepped forward and closed the curtains around them.
"Huh?"
"What is this for?"
"I don't know, why are you closing the curtain in broad daylight?"
The entire second floor is covered with sturdy sturdiness.
Instantly it became pitch black, like night.
No one understands what Shopkeeper Yan is going to do.
Only Wang Chen knew that the shopkeeper Yan wanted to show the effect of the solar flashlight.
"Don't panic, I'm singing and selling today's final finale, the magic lamp!" said the shopkeeper Yan.
"What kind of magic lamp should be closed with the curtain?" Listening to the voice, it was the rich man Lu from Taizhou.
Another middle-aged man shouted, "Yes, what are you selling?"
Shopkeeper Yan didn't answer at all.
Turn the flashlight on directly.
Brush the ground, and a cylindrical light rushes out!
Master Li, who was facing him, was startled by the pillar of light, and said, "Piercing eyes! Piercing eyes!"
"What kind of light is this? It's so bright!"
I don't know which rich squire shouted: "Shopkeeper Yan! Shopkeeper Yan! Please also receive supernatural powers!"
Burst!
Wang Chen burst out laughing when he heard it!
Why don't you say that Elder Sun has received supernatural powers?
On the side, Wang Yuncang exclaimed: "Although I have seen it once, I still feel amazing." ”
Wang Chen said lazily: "Do you like it, do something for me, and find a chance to send you one in the future." ”
Wang Yuncang was overjoyed, "Thank you, Brother Chen, for the reward." ”
Wang Chen scolded with a smile: "You really know how to hit snakes with sticks." ”
While they were chatting, Shopkeeper Yan had already asked people to open the curtain again.
The light faded away.
But the flashlight hasn't been turned off yet.
When the light was restored, the shopkeeper Yan raised the flashlight in his hand, "You saw the light just now, it was caused by this thing, okay, don't talk much, the starting price is a thousand yuan, let's bid." ”
I don't know if I was shocked by the magic of the flashlight, but no one made a sound at the scene for the first time. It didn't take until three or five seconds before someone suddenly shouted, "One thousand and fifty times!"
Shopkeeper Yan smiled and stretched out his hand, "Master Xu bid one thousand and fifty yuan." ”
Not to be outdone, Master Li followed closely: "One thousand and one hundred runs!"
The shopkeeper Yan just wanted to say a word, and the sound of bidding one after another resounded throughout the singing hall!
"Twelve hundred!"
"I'll give 1,400!"
"One thousand fifteen. The voice of a majestic man came from the southwest compartment.
Hearing the location of the voice, Wang Chen's heart tightened.
He knew that the people who could be in the cubicles were the real big guys.
Could it be that the rich squires have stopped bidding again?
Sure enough, the group of rich squires stopped talking, but that doesn't mean that no one is bidding!
A young man's voice sounded in the compartment in front of Wang Chen, "One thousand six hundred." ”
Mrs. Lin also bid, "One thousand seven hundred." ”
Hearing Mrs. Lin's bidding, Wang Chen frowned, he remembered the two times just now.
I don't know if it was taken by Mrs. Lin's identity, or if the price of 1,700 yuan was too high, and no one immediately followed the price.
Shopkeeper Yan waited for about ten seconds and said, "Is there anyone who follows the price for 1,700 yuan?"
No sound.
"Seventeen hundred are you sure no one is following the price?"
I asked for a second time.
Shopkeeper Yan confirmed for the third time, "One thousand seven ......"
Go to Nima, I hurt Lao Tzu twice before, and I want to come again?
Wang Chen couldn't control it, and shouted directly: "One thousand eight hundred!"
The shopkeeper Yan, who was in charge of the singing and selling, jumped when he heard the voice, glanced at Wang Chen's compartment, opened his mouth, didn't know what to think, and finally held back.
Perhaps Mrs. Lin really likes the solar flashlight, and followed the price again: "One thousand nine hundred." ”
Wang Chen is overjoyed, just be willing to follow the price, buddy must let you spit out all the money you just gave for the glass mirror and lighter!
"Two thousand guan!" Wang Chen said without hesitation.
Wang Yuncang was drenched in cold sweat when he saw it, and stammered and whispered, "Chen...... Brother Chen, are we okay with this?"
"Shhhh Wang Chen made a gesture and asked Wang Yuncang not to speak.
After shouting to two thousand, Mrs. Lin was silent.
You won't stop following, will you?
If you don't have fun, it will be great!
On the contrary, Wang Chen was a little worried.
Who knew that the next moment, Mrs. Lin's voice came out again, but it was not a bid, but a warning, "Zunzhang will celebrate his sixtieth birthday in half a month, this thing is magical, the concubine wants to buy it and give it to Zunzhang, and I hope that the nobles in the middle compartment in the west will give face, this is Tongzhou!"
In ancient times, Zunzhang was an honorific title for in-laws.
Her last sentence "This is Tongzhou" is obviously blackmailing people to show that the Lin family is extraordinary.
Give your sister face.
You've broken me twice for good things.
Wang Chen's temper came up a little, and he replied: "The one with the highest price will get it, let's see the real chapter under our hands!"
He can't say what he suffers.
After the sale, you have to pay a commission of 10% for the sale of the building.
If you buy a shop, you have to give Yazhuang a commission of 300 yuan.
The first two things were only auctioned for 730 yuan, which is still a lot of money, and 2,000 yuan is definitely not enough.
"Okay!good!" "Young Lady Lin's tone was tinged with anger, "I want to see how you compare your financial resources with my Lin family." After saying this, she shouted directly: "Two thousand four hundred!"
The price has risen by 400 all at once!
Obviously to make the bidder give up on his own!
If the person who bids normally suddenly hears that the money has been raised so much, he will hesitate, but Wang Chen is not, he is just trusting himself, hearing that Mrs. Lin is angry, his heart is happy, what he wants is that Mrs. Lin loses her mind and bids desperately.
He took a breath, "Two thousand five hundred!"
"Guts!" Young Lady Lin gritted her teeth and said, "Two thousand seven hundred!"
Wang Chen: "Two thousand eight hundred!"
Young Lady Lin was furious, "Three thousand runs!"
There was an uproar.
"Who is this?"
"How dare you not give the Lin family face?"
"I guess it's a big man, let's not talk about it, it's not good to offend people. ”
The squires and rich men talked about it for a while, and immediately said no more.
In their habitual thinking, the least in the cubicle is the scholar class, or don't offend the people who can't be offended.
The bidding between the two was too fierce, and Shopkeeper Yan didn't have time to interject.
Three thousand?
Wait, do the math yourself.
According to the calculation of 3,000 guan, the three things were sold for a total of 3,730 guan, and after deducting the commission, there were still 3,357 guan, plus the deposit of 500 guan, and there was still a lot of money left.
Well, almost.
Do you want to continue to pit Young Lady Lin?
Wang Chen is calculating, in fact, the price of singing and selling has reached the standard.
Who knew that Young Madam Lin was still energetic, and snorted coldly, "What's the matter? Your Excellency has no money to follow?"
Wang Chenle was happy, he was still hesitating to ask for another price, you provoked the door yourself, don't blame me, "Three thousand two hundred!"
"You!you!" Young Madam Lin's voice was a little angry.
There was also a comforting voice from the maid in the compartment, "Young lady, don't be angry." ”
"The concubine is angry!" Young Lady Lin slammed the table, "Three thousand three hundred!"
As soon as the words came out, the hall was shocked.
Three thousand three hundred, the purchasing power in the Northern Song Dynasty is equivalent to three or four million in modern society!
Wang Chen opened his mouth and said, "Three ......"
As soon as he said a word, he thought of something.
What if this young lady Lin doesn't follow again?
Well, don't follow.
Mrs. Lin's provocative voice came again, "Your Excellency is with you." ”
Wang Chen's wishful thinking has already started, for fear of lifting a stone to hit his own feet, where is he willing to ask for a price, so he said loudly: "Don't follow, it is worthy of the Lin family, a wealthy family in Tongzhou, with rich financial resources, admire and admire, this thing will be given to you." In order to conceal his identity, he also deliberately spoke in a crepe to learn from the ancients.
Originally, he thought that saying this would dissipate Mrs. Lin's anger, after all, no matter how he said it, he was the owner of the money.
But I didn't expect that then Mrs. Lin had a hint of confusion in her voice, "Ah?
Wang Chen felt a little strange and said, "That's right." ”
Young Lady Lin said eagerly: "Why don't you follow?"
Wang Chen said as a matter of course: "If you don't have money, you won't follow." ”
Over there, Mrs. Lin was silent for a long time, and she didn't know what was going on.
Suddenly!
The maid's panicked voice sounded in the compartment, "Young lady! young lady! What's wrong with you?"
Shopkeeper Yan glanced at it and hurriedly shouted, "What's wrong?"
The maid cried and said, "My young lady has fainted!"
What the?
Fainted?
Wang Chen was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang Yuncang.
Isn't it not the price to follow?
Why did Young Lady Lin faint in anger?
Don't......
Wang Chen thought of a possibility.
Just now, Mrs. Lin Shao may really want to buy a flashlight, but after the warning, Wang Chen continued to bid and angered her, so she deliberately bid, and waited until the price rose to a certain point, wanting to make Wang Chen bleed!
If it is a man from a really famous family, who said that kind of thing before, for the sake of face, he will definitely slap his swollen face and become fat, and no matter how high the price is, he will have to follow, after all, it is related to the reputation of a family.
Mrs. Lin is different, she is a woman.
Even if she doesn't follow, others won't say much, who made her a woman?
In ancient times, women had no social status, and their natural face was not so important, and they could not represent the Lin family, a wealthy family in Tongzhou, and would not affect the reputation of the family.
It's a pity that she didn't expect that the person bidding with her was not a man from a famous family, but a "seller", and even calculated that she would stop if she had enough money to buy a shop.
In this way, Mrs. Lin Shao cocooned herself and took a picture of the flashlight at a price that exceeded the bottom line in her heart, but she couldn't take out so much money, so she fainted.
These are all Wang Chen's guesses, but they are not far from ten.
Indeed, when the price just reached 2,000 guan, Mrs. Lin really wanted to buy it, and even in order to win it in one fell swoop, she also raised it by 400 guan, and then the bidding became higher and higher.
Both are calculating each other.
Wang Chen was not greedy and terminated the price in time.
Fortunately, Mrs. Lin was originally ready to shout the price to 3,500 yuan and no longer followed.
As the saying goes, if you have no desire, you are strong, and Wang Chen did this unintentionally, so he didn't follow the way of Mrs. Lin.
But now he is a little worried, Mrs. Lin is dizzy, can she get the money of 3,300 yuan smoothly?
