Chapter 306: Live Bidding
Although we all know that He Ji and Shi Songzhe are rich, it refers to assets, such as residences, shops, acres of land, etc., which are difficult to realize in one day.
And the current offer, paid before sunset, actually refers to cash.
300,000 taels of silver, even if there is money, who will put so much cash at home?
Everyone didn't believe that He Ji and Shi Songzhe could come up with so much money in one day, let alone Yu Changjing.
In everyone's minds, Yu Changjing was much poorer than He Ji and Shi Songzhe, and many people had unbelievable expressions on their faces for a while.
He Ji also looked at Yu Changjing in surprise, and his heart became extremely nervous.
After hesitating for a moment, He Ji said slowly: "Three hundred and ten thousand taels"
There was another burst of agitation in the field, and on everyone's faces, some were surprised, some were angry, some were mocking, and more were surprised expressions.
When He Ji and Shi Songzhe were bidding just now, they quoted a bid of tens of thousands of taels of silver, and He Ji showed a very difficult look on his face, but now he could call out three hundred and ten thousand taels without hesitation, He Ji was really treacherous and cunning.
Not to be outdone, Shi Songzhe said: "Three hundred and fifty thousand taels." ”
"Five hundred thousand taels. Yu Changjing raised his voice again.
There was another exclamation in the audience.
This is after the disaster, Dongxing City was isolated from the outside world, and water and land transportation was almost cut off, which means that Yu Changjing has 500,000 taels of silver in Dongxing City, how rich is Yu Changjing?
The bidding of tens of thousands of taels of quotations between He Ji and Shi Songzhe just now seems to be like perfunctory or acting.
"Five hundred and fifty thousand taels. As soon as the words fell, He Ji immediately said.
"A million taels. Shi Songzhe said ruthlessly.
Shi Songzhe already understood that this bid was fundamentally different from an auction.
The auction (comparison) is to auction the lot at the lowest but higher price than others, so there are multiple rounds of bidding, which is more than saving money.
The auction here is about life, and the comparison is who is the richest, and if you lose, you will lose your life, and only by hollowing out every penny on your body can you see who loses and who wins. There is not much point in multiple rounds of bidding, and every penny you can come up with anyway.
Knowing the results, there's no need to waste too much time.
"One and a half million taels. Yu Changjing was not to be outdone.
There was another burst of agitation in the field.
No one thought that these people in the field could casually take out millions of taels of silver, and you must know that the annual tax payment in the entire Lianzhou is only hundreds of thousands of taels.
There was silence in the audience, and everyone looked at He Ji.
After a while, He Ji raised his hand and said, "One million and six hundred thousand taels." ”
He Ji cried with a sad face and looked at Lei Shaoxuan pitifully.
At the beginning, He Ji spent a great price to get the position of the prefect of Lianzhou, but after a few years, he was greedy a lot, and now he has lost all of them, and then he continues to bid, and he has to post it upside down.
Shen Yi's eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you are a fat man, you are really damn good for greedy so many silver taels." How many more, spit them out, or I'll cut you with a thousand knives. ”
Wang Siyi glanced at Lei Shaoxuan, and said with a smile: "All this money belongs to Xiao Lei! Don't cut it with a thousand knives at every turn, it's better to keep him alive, and let Xiao Lei organize a redemption auction every year in the future, so that he can make money for Xiao Lei." ”
When He Ji heard this, he almost fainted, and everyone collapsed.
Shi Songzhe gasped, gritted his teeth, raised his hand and said, "Two million one hundred and ninety-eight thousand taels ......" After saying that, his whole body was weak and he almost collapsed.
Obviously, this is Shi Songzhe's last offer, and there is no more than a dime.
After Shi Songzhe finished quoting the price, his heart rose to his throat, and he was so nervous that he trembled, how could he not worry at the last moment when his life was at stake.
There was silence in the field, and only the sound of Shi Songzhe's panting was heard.
"Two million two hundred thousand taels...... "Yu Changjing said word by word.
"I'm not convinced...... I don't believe it, how can you have so much money?" Shi Songzhe almost jumped to his feet and roared.
Yu Changjing was in charge of public security under the jurisdiction of Lianzhou, and the waterway and land transportation of the Henghe River were developed, and Yu Changjing made a lot of money from smuggling, but it was impossible to be richer than Shi Songzhe.
Yu Changjing swallowed hard and said hard: "I don't have that much money, but the Yu family does! The firm came to Dongxing City ten days ago, and was going to Guide to purchase goods, but they were stranded in Dongxing City due to the flood, and their silver taels were my silver taels. ”
Shi Songzhe is like falling into an ice cave, and Yu Changjing is richer than him, which means that he has stepped into the ghost gate.
"II...... Two million two hundred and twenty thousand taels. He Ji said in a trembling voice, secretly relieved in his heart, he had already seen that Yu Changjing and Shi Songzhe's offers were already the bottom limit.
As soon as the words fell, Shi Songzhe was completely desperate.
"No...... No, it can't be!" Shi Songzhe roared, his eyes full of fear.
Looking at Shi Songzhe, who was a little crazy, Lei Shaoxuan said lightly: "Master Shi, can you still bid higher?" Be careful, you can't get it out of the report, but it will take a thousand cuts." ”
Shi Songzhe hoarsely voiced, with a crying voice, begged: "General, this is already all my family, please, let me go, I only have two thousand taels of money with them, but it is just the money for a meal." The brocade robe, jade pendant, cloud boots, and cloud beads on my body add up to more than two thousand taels, is my life not comparable to a set of official brocade robes?"
Lei Shaoxuan was expressionless and said, "If you can sell the official uniform on your body for two thousand taels now, you will win." Why don't you quote a price and see who is willing to bid 2,000 taels to buy your official uniform and save your life?"
There was silence in the room.
After a while, Lei Shaoxuan sighed, and with a wave of his hand, four sergeants who were like wolves and tigers strode over, picked up Shi Songzhe, and were about to drag him away.
"No, no...... Wait! I still have something to monetize right away. Shi Songzhe struggled desperately and shouted.
"Oh, what is it, tell me?" Lei Shaoxuan waved his hand and stopped the sergeant.
Lei Shaoxuan looked at Shi Songzhe with interest, looking lively.
"Four stunning Jiangnan girls! worth 20,000 taels!" Shi Songzhe gasped.
Everyone was stunned, four stunning beauties worth 20,000 taels were going to be realized at this moment?
When discussing disaster relief, this sounds ridiculous, let alone in the barracks, in full view of everyone.
Lei Shaoxuan was also taken aback, and said with a smile: "The war is in chaos, and at the moment of the catastrophe, who will spend 20,000 taels of silver to buy a beautiful woman? In Xijing, 50 taels of silver can buy a good woman." ”
Shi Songzhe ignored everyone's surprised gazes, and struggled: "Lord Han, the secretary of the ministry, entrusted me to arrange six women, and it was not completed until the end of last month. Lord Cai came to visit, I asked them to come out to toast, Lord Cai was shocked at first sight, and was willing to pay 20,000 taels of silver for me to transfer two of them, I was not willing to give up, and now the four women are 20,000 taels. ”
"How can you take it seriously when you are drunk?" In the middle of the scene, Cai Shen was so angry that he almost jumped up, "General, where did I get so much money to squander? Master Shi, don't talk nonsense and drag me into the water." ”
Spending 20,000 taels of silver, just to buy two women, no matter how you look at it, it is all a corrupt official, how can Cai Shen not be angry, if this move is not good, Lei Shaoxuan will let him participate in the bidding, or directly let himself go to the iron pot to take a bath.
Lei Shaoxuan glanced at Cai Shen meaningfully, seeing that he was frightened and his scalp was numb.
Lei Shaoxuan looked at Shi Songzhe with a smile and said, "It seems that Lord Cai has no intention of buying it." Master Shi, who else has taken a fancy to these beauties and is willing to buy them immediately? No, you are the last person, so I have to invite you into the iron pot. ”
Shi Songzhe's face turned pale, and he said with tears and despair: "Four beauties, stunning beauties, 10,000 taels? ”
Officials in the field bowed their heads one after another.
What are you kidding? In the current catastrophe, it is okay to buy food and medicinal materials, who dares to buy beautiful women in front of Lei Shaoxuan? Others are disaster relief and have fun by themselves?
"Six thousand taels!"
"Four thousand taels!"
Shi Songzhe looked at Lei Shaoxuan in despair, his eyes looked straight over, his eyes were full of despair and pleading, and said, "Three thousand taels!"
"General, I'll give you three thousand taels! "Between Shi Songzhe and He Ji, there is only a gap of two thousand taels of silver, and three thousand taels of silver just smooths out the gap, and it can exceed one thousand taels.
"Three thousand taels...... Lei Shaoxuan shook his head, "It's still a bit expensive......
"No, no...... Two thousand one hundred taels. Shi Songzhe hurriedly said. Lei Shaoxuan is too expensive? That means that he is actually willing to buy it, as long as the price is lower.
Shi Songzhe's eyes widened, his eyes were full of hope, and he looked straight at Lei Shaoxuan. Now, as long as he surpasses He Ji even one or two pieces of silver, he can save his life.
The bidding at this moment is like encountering a tiger in the forest, not about who runs faster than the tiger, but who is faster than the slowest person.
One step is the difference between life and death. One step faster, live, one step slower, and be eaten by a tiger.
"Okay! Two thousand one hundred taels, I barely bought it. Lei Shaoxuan seemed to have taken a big advantage, he was in a good mood and couldn't smile from ear to ear.
The eyes of everyone in the audience widened, and their mouths could be stuffed with an egg in surprise.
Lei Shaoxuan actually bought beauties in public?
A woman worth 20,000 taels bought it for 2,100 taels, undoubtedly taking advantage of the fire to rob, or using power for personal gain, and it was still a woman.
With such an unscrupulous abuse of power for personal gain, could it be that Lei Shaoxuan is essentially a figure like He Ji? Dongxingcheng can not leave He Ji, come to Lei Shaoxuan. The hearts of the people were mixed for a while,
"Shameless!" Shen Yi gritted his teeth and said, just about to continue to say something, Wang Siyi pulled his sleeve, couldn't help lowering his voice, and said angrily: "Pervert." ”
He Ji was stunned for a while, Shi Songzhe's bid had already surpassed him.
He Ji said boldly: "General, can you bid on items on the spot? ”
"Yes, if you are bidding, you only need to pay before sunset. Lei Shaoxuan said with a smile.
He Ji was refreshed when he heard this, and in terms of assets, he was no worse than the other two.
He Ji raised his hand, revealing a huge ring on his finger, and said loudly: "The best jade wrench finger of the Southern Domain, the original price is five thousand taels of silver, and the current price is one thousand taels." ”
There was silence for a while, and no one responded.
"Five hundred taels. ”
"Two hundred taels!"
Seeing He Ji's gaze, the officials in the field lowered their heads and avoided it.
"A hundred taels of silver. He Ji said in horror.
No one in the room responded.
