Master Cao also nodded to Yan Weiyang with a smile, and greeted Fang Chu, Han Xiyi and others.

Guo Daquan invited him to the upper seat, served tea, and said: "Things are prepared urgently, we are from the countryside, we have shallow knowledge, shallow foundation, there is something wrong and inconsiderate hospitality, please bear with me, bear with us countrymen who are rude and don't know how to be polite." ”

Master Cao smiled: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Very reservedly holding the shelf, looking around.

At this look, I was secretly shocked: in this auction hall that is not a look, the people sitting are all rich merchants with heads and faces.

He couldn't help but look at Guo Daquan, who is this?

can actually be so favored by the Yan family Shaodong.

Xie Yinyue saw Yan Weiyang helping the Guo family like this, and knew why, so she couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Fang Chu threw her a relieved smile and signaled her to rest assured.

As soon as Shen Zheng's time arrived, the courtyard door was closed outside.

Guo Daquan stood in the middle of the main hall, smiled and hugged his fists to the visitors in the hall and the courtyard: "It's rude." I won't say much flattery. I know very well in my heart that you can come here, not for my rough face, but for those sketches. These drawings are hanging under the porch, and everyone has just seen them. If you are willing to buy it, you will make a bid. And when you have the stick that you have in your hand, and there is a nail on it, and when you have written the price, hang the paper on the nail and hold it up. -- Let me laugh at you, we remembered to auction it for the time being, so we didn't have time to prepare the wooden plaque, so we had to do that. I repeat, the reserve price of the auction is five thousand taels. Every 100 taels of silver is a progression, and slowly increase upwards. The highest price is the ten drawings that belong to him. We not only gave him the draft, but also taught him how to make it up by hand. ”

As soon as the voice fell, there was a discussion inside and out.

Someone urged: "It's all there." Let's go. ”

Guo Daquan said with a smile: "Wait, we invited the county government to witness Master Cao." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Master Cao and said, "Lord Cao, please!" ”

Master Cao felt that this country man was a little clever, so he stood up very satisfied, greeted everyone with his fists, said a few words, and then sat down again.

Guo Daquan beckoned to the outside world, and Cai came in with a drawing; At the same time, Guo Dayou and Guo Shouye also stood under the corridors on the east and west sides of the front yard with a drawing, and all the people in the compartment stood up and stretched out their heads to look.

Guo Daquan raised his voice, running through the entire compound: "Have you all seen this artwork?" Jiang Zhuzhai knows, right? It was painted by weaving bamboo silk with the Guo family's drawings, and the business was booming. These artworks are harder to sell than they used to be, and the techniques are different from what they used to be, as you all recognize. Jiang Zhuzhai's shopkeeper and my Guo family turned out to be in-laws......"

Xie Yinyue sighed when she heard this, and said secretly: "It's here." ”

Guo Daquan talked about the relationship between the Jiang family and the Guo family, as well as the entanglement with the Xie family, which is equivalent to explaining the causes and consequences of the auction artwork. Although there is not a single word to accuse the Xie family, everyone is not a fool, and they can guess one or two inside stories.

However, at this time, everyone was not interested in rumors.

They were all staring at the drawing.

Although none of the people who participated in the auction knew how to weave bamboo silk paintings, the grid diagram gave them an extraordinary feeling, which was simply an alternative expression of the brocade craftsman's drawing. Of course, whether you can understand it or not depends on everyone's luck. After all, interlacing is like separating mountains, and bamboo silk paintings and brocades are still different. The most obvious difference is: one uses the machine, and the other is manual.

At the moment, everyone had their own thoughts, and after Guo Daquan shouted "start", they shouted the price one after another.

Yan Weiyang vowed to make the Xie family look good, shouting "10,000 taels".

Then, the price was written and the nail was hung, and Mo Yu was held high.

As soon as the words fell, a shout sounded in the southeast corner of the courtyard outside, "Fifteen thousand taels." ”

When Fang Chu and the others heard this, their color suddenly changed.

"Wei Zhao!"

Then, the southwest corner also sounded a shout, "Twenty thousand taels." ”

Everyone was shocked again, "Master Shen! ”

Master Shen's name is Shen Yisan, and he is one of the top ten Jin merchants.

In terms of wealth, Shen Yisan is the richest man in the Jin businessmen, and he is also famous in the entire Dajing. However, because its family business involves many industries, the brocade industry is not as profound as the upper family, so its reputation is not very obvious. However, those in the industry who know the details of it dare not underestimate him.

Yan Weiyang gritted his teeth and raised his card again, "Twenty-five thousand taels." ”

Fang Chu was really depressed, he hadn't made a bid yet.

Because he whispered to the next door: "Weiyang, what are you doing?" ”

No matter how much they quarrel in private, they are also relatives, breaking bones and tendons, they can't dismantle his platform here, she knows that he is bound to win today.

Yan Weiyang whispered: "What's the matter, if you rob someone's son-in-law, you can't pay more?" ”

Han Xiyi listened to it and chuckled: "That makes sense! ”

After speaking, he also shouted: "Twenty-six thousand taels." ”

When Fang Chu heard his cousin like this, he knew that she was deliberately making trouble, and he deliberately asked him to give more money to the Guo family, so he was relieved and unhappy, because he also thought so in his heart.

So he called out, "Twenty-seven thousand taels." ”

After a quiet while, Wei Zhao shouted, "Twenty-seven thousand five hundred taels." ”

It seems that the price has reached the predetermined price in everyone's heart, and the price increase is slow.

Seeing this, Guo Daquan's tense heart relaxed and wiped his sweat.

He was stunned just now, thinking that if he looked like this, could it be that this artwork could be sold for 100,000 taels? Who knows that it is his wishful thinking, and people are not casually shouting prices.

Speaking of which, it is also an account in everyone's heart.

Those bamboo merchants certainly want to make a fortune, so they are still willing to invest tens of thousands of dollars. After all, Jiang Zhuzhai's business is there, which means that this business should make money, and he is currently the only one in the city to do this. But if you haven't made any money yet, you have to invest 20,000 or 30,000 yuan first, and the risk of this transaction is a bit big. Therefore, when the price of the shout exceeded 25,000, they were silent.

Besides, the brocade merchants did not come for the bamboo business, but for brocade weaving. However, this artwork seems to be helpful for brocade, but whether it can help depends on the fate of each family, and it is also uncertain. Although they have money, they are not littered. When it comes to business, profit and loss must be calculated, and every penny must be calculated. Otherwise, how can you save such a big family business?

Only Fang Chu is different.

He was fighting for the Xie family for this auction.

From the perspective of the bamboo business, winning this artwork can make money for Jiang Zhuzhai, and it can be cashed out immediately, foolproof; From the perspective of brocade, with Xie Yinyue's attainments, even if the detailed study of this drawing is not transparent, it will definitely be successful.

Therefore, he is bound to win and shout the price without hurry.

Whenever someone else asked for a price, he always immediately added a hundred taels.

Xie Yinyue looked at him from the side, with appreciation and admiration in her eyes.

She just liked him like that.

Just like countless times before facing opponents, he is calm and strong, and he is determined to win; Calm and faintly unruly, dare to challenge a bad rules and customs, every time unexpected, people can't guard against it.

Under his leadership, the Fang family was more prosperous than in the hands of his father.

At the beginning, there were countless people who asked the Xie family to marry her, and the Fang family, the Han family and the Wei family were among them. Han Xiyi is dignified and chic, and his style is unmatched; Wei Zhao is cold and handsome, hidden deeply; She took a fancy to his rebelliousness under his calm appearance, so she responded to the Fang family's family affairs.

As it turned out, she didn't misread him! R1152
