Chapter 42: Surprise

"Click......

Luffy took a bite of a crispy and sweet melon and thought about how much the final price would be. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

He looked at the people who were still holding the price card under the stands, which had gradually calmed down, looked at the subtle expressions of each person, and deduced it slightly, and fixed it at about 40 million.

This is a relatively accurate number.

Sure enough, the price stayed at 41 million, and the person who took the shot was a middle-aged gentleman, and although the rest of the people still wanted to call, they had a fluke in their hearts, after all, there were still nine pieces of clothing to wait...... The price of 40 million is still too expensive!

The second garment is a women's dress.

There are not many people who ask for the price, after all, this world is a patriarchal world, and the finances are controlled by men, and there are too few women standing in high places, unless they inherit the family business.

But the reaction was even more enthusiastic, and several people continued to compete, quickly breaking through the 40 million limit.

In the end, the price was fixed in the range of 57 million.

"Crazy, crazy."

Luffy was funny, he thought that he could get a lot of money, because this kind of clothing only appeared in the northern region of the East China Sea in a few years, and the price broke through to forty or fifty million every time, and the auction price should be high, but he didn't expect that the auction price remained the same, and it did not affect the price that broke through the sky in the past because of the number of ten pieces.

But it's no wonder that the nobles have lost so much conscience, and the outer layer of shame can't lag behind people.

Other aristocrats wore clothes with a market value of tens of millions, but on their own bodies, they wore top-notch clothes from wealthy families that were auctioned back with tens of millions of dollars, and their values were immediately compared.

The auction of one by one was okay in the early stage, and the price did not exceed 57 million, but the later it was, the fewer people were fighting, and the more and more the price was called.

There are only a few people who can buy this kind of clothing, and they are all the top people in the northern region of the East China Sea, but such people are more or less a little in contact or hostile, so they can't retreat.

If there is a meeting, if one party does not, it will be very embarrassing.

In the end, the price of the top 10 pieces of clothing was auctioned for a total of 530 million yuan, which is 26.5 million yuan when converted into RMB.

Luffy's face was a little ugly, and he complained in his heart that he knew what kind of gold he was selling, and it would be good to sell these clothes. But it's just a complaint, if there is no red real gold base, people mistakenly think that Mei Tangerine is a young man, these clothes may be snatched at a low price as soon as they are taken out, and it is far from being placed on the auction floor for people to compete for.

Next, there are second-class clothes, a total of forty pieces, which is also the key for the remaining nobles to come to this auction house, more beautiful and pleasing than what professional masters handmade, just those will cost millions, it is better to spend more money into this, you need to know, this is the foil of tens of millions of clothes.

The value of these clothes has plummeted, and for non-top people, there are still few who can smash more than 10 million without blinking just to fight for breath.

However, the final value is still 302 million, which is 150.1 million yuan when converted into RMB, and the profit is 100,000 times compared to its cost of several hundred yuan.

The clothing auction is over, but the nobles and wealthy merchants have not left, waiting for something eagerly.

An old nobleman who was a little old, but still had black hair, knocked on the table in the VIP room, and asked through the phone, "...... What about the new textile and garment technology you are talking about? ”

The host of the auction retreated, and standing in front of everyone was the big manager of the bank, who was even more smiling at this time, looking much younger, raised his hands and pressed them down, and said, "Don't worry, the staff is preparing." ”

"I'm sure everyone has learned about the new textile and garment technology through the letter we sent, but now, while there is still some time, I will briefly introduce this new textile and garment technology entrusted by Mei Tachibana to our bank to select and select the authorized person......

The staff on the side erected a huge screen, and the image worm spat out an image all over it, showing a new type of textile wood machine.

"What you see is the textile machine that Mei Tangerine has personally researched because of his hobby, and this kind of textile machine can weave silk threads more delicately than the previous textile machines......

"Look at the left, that's the old loom machine, which uses a shuttle type to pull the silk thread for weaving, and the new loom machine, in addition to the improved shuttle, also adds an auxiliary shuttle, and below, it can change the four-thread weaving into a six-thread weaving...... The texture of the garment is more than twice as delicate......"

"And the speed has increased by 30 percent, which means that at the same time, the old loom can weave 10 meters of cloth, and the new loom can weave 13 metres."

"And the additional cost is not enough...... About twenty-seven percent. ”

"Although the fabric woven by this loom is not as good as the one that has just been taken out, the quality can be improved by a notch for most ordinary clothes......

"I believe that everyone doesn't believe it, after all, I didn't see the real thing, at this time the staff has also prepared the old loom and the new loom machine, and the two skilled female workers have also sat upright, so let's see it with our own eyes."

On the auction table, two young and beautiful embroiderers each put their hands on the old loom and the new loom, ready to weave the placed silk threads into cloth on the spot.

All the aristocratic merchants in the auction hall were staring at this scene closely, and many people were sweating down, if what the big manager on the stage said was true, then this would have made a lot of changes in the clothing industry.

The simplest thing is to advertise that because of the new looms, the cost has increased, and the price of clothing has to increase -- as for the old looms, of course, they are discarded, and the efficiency has increased by 30 percent, which can fully compensate for the increased cost of 27 percent.

The eyes of those top nobles and wealthy businessmen bloomed with an invisible light, and the change in the clothing industry meant that there was a lot of potential in the stock market, and a lot of warm wool could be scraped on the lamb of the Lord God.

At the same time, the embroidery girl's manual up, the silk thread into the cloth, people found at this time, although an auxiliary shuttle was added, but the process used is more simple, the auxiliary shuttle in the movement, can drive the previous quite complicated process to complete.

Many people believe in the words of increased efficiency at this time, after all, every little time reduced by each step increases the efficiency by a lot, and it seems that thirty percent is not too much.

Time gradually passed, the old loom stayed at about ten centimeters, while the new loom has been woven thirteen.1 centimeters, completely more than thirty percent.
