Chapter 486: Make a fortune
This time, the shipment is obviously much larger than the last time.
So much so that after queuing for nearly three hours, when it was Lu Chengzhang's turn to go in, there were still tail goods.
It's a pity...... There are more people in line behind him.
This fine porcelain is like a bottomless pit, no matter how much water comes, it will never be filled, and it can always ensure that more than seventy or eighty percent of people can't buy it.
There's really the last bit of the goods.
Lu Chengzhang couldn't help but get excited in his heart, and he even trembled a little with excitement.
If he had done enough homework and queued up before he came, he still spent countless thoughts and racked his brains. What's more, after lining up for three hours in this cold wind, it was getting dark, and Lu Chengzhang felt that this was a gift from God to him at this time, at least...... I was lucky, much luckier than the team at the bottom of the line.
As soon as I entered, I heard the guys scolding, obviously impatient: "There are only a few bottles left, take it and get out of here, less verbose." ”
Lu Chengzhang was sure in his heart.
Now no one will think that these guys of the Chen family are scolding people ugly, everyone is used to it.
If it's a smiling face or something, everyone still doesn't dare to buy it, who knows if it's adulterated?
Lu Chengzhang hurriedly paid, and the guy directly took a beautiful cardboard box and stuffed it to him.
Obviously, this time, the packaging of porcelain began to be upgraded.
Lu Chengzhang hugged the carton and took a deep breath, he really wanted to see what was inside, but after a few guests who came with him bought it, they immediately tore the carton, and two people showed a slight disappointment, and theirs was also a chicken.
This glazed chicken is said to be the most common, although it can also be sold for seventeen or eighteen times. But I heard that the production of less dragon snakes and the like, this value can be doubled.
Of course, the most difficult thing is the tiger, and the tiger bottle is the rarest.
Several other guests encouraged him and said, "Come and have a look." ”
Lu Chengzhang was a little hesitant.
The guy who leaned to the side, knocked on the pumpkin seeds, and squinted at the man also glared at him: "Look at it, it's all here." ”
This time, he didn't curse.
Lu Chengzhang actually glanced at this guy with a grateful look, and suddenly felt that this guy was not as bad as the legend.
He couldn't help but get nervous and tremble, and then opened the gift box.
Under the light, the unique luster of the porcelain vase instantly revealed a corner, and when he carefully took out the porcelain vase, in an instant, everyone held their breath.
“……”
Mo said that the other guests were the guy, and their eyes were about to fall off.
Someone said expectantly: "This ...... This is the Tiger Bottle? ”
But when he saw that on the bottle, a tiger coming down the mountain was lifelike, and even the beard was visible, and the tiger king glared angrily, ready to go.
For a while, Lu Chengzhang almost fainted, he slammed the spirit, and desperately grabbed the porcelain bottle.
"It's a tiger bottle, it turns out that this is a tiger bottle, you see...... This tiger bottle uses multiple glazes, no wonder they say that this is the most difficult to fire. ”
"Oh my God......"
Everyone stared at the bottle intently, and greed flashed in their eyes.
Lu Chengzhang's tears are about to come out, he is not from a rich and noble family, but a poor family, so he is just a nine-grade petty official in the yali, no one cares, although in Chang'an, a little bit of decency, but life is still quite tight, just this seven money, it is already a year of his money, if it is not a little oil and water, I am afraid that I will not be able to save this money.
Can ...... now He held the tiger bottle with a slight tremble, and for a moment, the corners of his eyes were moist with excitement.
Belong to my Lu family...... It's going to make a fortune!
He hurriedly put the tiger bottle back in the box, raised his head, and saw the greed of the people around him who couldn't hide it, and he couldn't help but be vigilant.
Then he held the box containing the tiger bottle, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, he walked away without looking back.
This time, the tiger bottle came out.
The news spread.
The whole of Chang'an was alarmed.
Because there are too many rumors about tiger bottles, there are different opinions on how many tiger bottles there are, many people say that the prince has one there, and some people say that the Cui family received one...... However, the vast majority of people only have different opinions, and they only know that many dignitaries and nobles ask for but cannot get them.
After all, this set of twelve bottles, those who have great energy, and the other eleven are nothing, but only this tiger bottle is only a rumored existence. Without such a tiger bottle, for some famous families, taking out the other eleven bottles for display, they all feel like they are so bad.
So much so that the next day, the news about the tiger bottle was reported again.
And Lu Chengzhang has not been on duty for two days, just blindly taking leave, he didn't dare to leave home easily, for fear that the bottle would be stolen, he carefully held the bottle every day, moved closer to the lamp to play and watch, a few friends visited, he also said that he was not there.
Only Lu Wensheng was closest to him, so he called him, Lu Wensheng looked at this thing, his eyes were straight.
"A lot of people are coming to visit these days, right?"
"Exactly, in the end, the news was leaked, I knew that this was the case, I shouldn't have opened the box in front of the store, more than a dozen people came yesterday, and three or four more came early this morning, all saying that they wanted to accept this bottle, and there was a merchant who opened the price of five hundred and seventy yuan."
Lu Wensheng gasped, five hundred and seventy times, he could almost eat it for a lifetime.
Lu Wensheng glanced at Lu Chengzhang deeply, and couldn't help it: "What are Brother Lu Xian's plans?" ”
"I ...... I can't tell. Lu Chengzhang said: "When I look at it, my heart is satisfied, I can't eat, and I'm willing to sleep without sleeping." ”
"Nope." Lu Wensheng looked at Lu Chengzhang worriedly: "The so-called husband is not guilty of his crimes, Brother Lu Xian, although this bottle is good, it is not something you can have, people see wealth, they will inevitably steal, and now while many people don't know that this bottle is in the Lu family, it is better to hurry up and sell this bottle." ”
How could he not understand this truth, but ......
Lu Chengzhang hesitated, nodded, and shook his head again, his eyes were bloodshot, and finally sighed and said, "Wait and see." ”
"Can't wait." Lu Wensheng shook his head and said, "This matter...... I must make a decision as soon as possible, in the past two days, I have accompanied Brother Lu Xian here, but I can beware of small people, but after a long time, it is difficult to say. You and I have been friends for many years, and you need to listen to my advice. ”
"Let's see." Lu Chengzhang's face showed pain.
In the past two days, he has been happy and worried, and he is really going to torture Lu Chengzhang to death.
At noon, someone came to visit again, Lu Wensheng accompanied Lu Chengzhang to see people in the hall, but Lu Wensheng recognized the person who turned into ashes, wasn't it Chen Fu who slapped him last time?
Chen Fu looked at them and said with a smile: "I heard that Lu Langjun won the tiger bottle, congratulations here." ”
Lu Wensheng said with a cold face: "What are you Chen family doing here?" ”
Chen Fu smiled: "I want to ask, do you sell this bottle?" ”
The Chen family actually came to buy a bottle?
Lu Wensheng and Lu Chengzhang couldn't help but be a little confused, and the two looked at each other.
"In fact, it's not to buy, but to help sell, our Chen family opened an auction house, found many people to come, took out the treasure, and then bid, the highest price wins." Chen Fu changed his previous domineering, he kept smiling, very amiable, and continued: "If Lu Langjun wants to sell the bottle, he can entrust the auction house to sell it, such an open bidding is better than privately giving it, after all, how much is the value of this bottle, it should be clearer to sell it publicly, so as not to suffer a loss to the Lu family." ”
Lu Wensheng and Lu Chengzhang glanced at each other, Lu Chengzhang couldn't make up his mind, he was reluctant to sell.
Lu Wensheng was a businessman, and he probably understood what Chen Fu meant, but he glanced at Lu Chengzhang: "The Chen family has a big business, and they won't be greedy for such a bottle if they want to, if they sell it like this, it is the most cost-effective, you can give it a try." Brother Lu Xian, listen to my advice, this bottle really can't stay for a long time. ”
"Then ...... Let's try it. Lu Chengzhang couldn't make up his mind, but finally nodded.
Although he was extremely reluctant, he still understood the truth.
…………
"Auction? What is an Auction? ”
At this time, in the Wei family's study, Wei Xuanzhen looked at the servant and asked.
"It's that everyone bids each other, and the one with the highest price wins." The servant looked at the head of the Wei family and said respectfully: "The auction house has made it clear in the newspaper that at noon today, this tiger bottle will be sold at the auction house in Erpigou, I heard that ...... Many people are moved by the wind. ”
Wei Xuanzhen was a little eager in her heart, turned around, and glanced at the eleven bottles in her hall.
The workmanship of this bottle is really good, even if it is a tribute, of course the Wei family has a lot of treasures, but the only thing that frustrates Wei Xuanzhen is...... This bottle is actually missing one.
I heard that only the prince has a full set now, and as for whether the Cui family has it, he can't make up his mind, but ...... Wei Xuanzhen is still very concerned about this tiger bottle, others have it, how can our Wei family not have it?
Now there are all kinds of topics about the twelve bottles outside, and if anyone gathers the twelve bottles first, it will inevitably cause a lot of discussion.
The Wei family is a deep-rooted clan in Chang'an, although it is not as good as the five surnames and seven sects, and it may not be comparable to some giant clans in Kanto and Jiangnan, but this is the boundary of Chang'an.
Now that I finally have the news of the Tiger Bottle, what else can I do?
Wei Xuanzhen gritted her teeth and said, "Get ready, let Shiro go, and find a way to get this bottle." ”
"Nope." Wei Xuanzhen thought about it for a while, and shook her head again: "No, it's better for the old man to go in person, the others, the old man is not at ease." ”
The auction house is in Erpigou, close to the Chen family's mansion, and it is already very lively at this time. Countless cars and horses could no longer stop, so they had to pull over on another street.
Many people arrived early, went in with invitations, and ...... Everyone went in and sat down.
This auction house is a new thing, when Wei Xuanzhen arrived, he saw a lot of acquaintances, at this time, Wei Xuanzhen's heart sank a little, because he knew very well that these acquaintances had come in person, but he was afraid that who would end up with this bottle, but he couldn't say for sure.
Lu Chengzhang and Lu Wensheng have come together, and as sellers, they will wait in a small room next to the auction hall.
It's just a wooden partition, so they can hear the movement in the auction hall clearly.
Then...... The auction begins.
In the beginning...... The sales are some rare treasures, everyone feels lively, and they bid separately, but the interest in bidding is not high.
Who can come here, who doesn't have countless treasures and antiques, and there is no shortage of such a thing?
Until the end, someone said: "The final finale bidding is the tiger bottle, which is made in Fuliang County, Jiangnan West Road...... The process ......"
"Don't be verbose, hurry up and let everyone bid."
"Okay, the low price is 500 guan, every time the price is increased, you need 100 guan, and the one with the highest price will get it!"
"Eight hundred!" There are already people who are impatient.
As soon as he heard eight hundred times, Lu Chengzhang vaguely heard this number, and the whole person wanted to jump.
Eight hundred times, you can really worry about it for a lifetime!
"A thousand times." Someone sneered.
Thousand......
"Fifteen hundred!"
The bidder obviously wanted to directly raise the price and scare the opponent.
But obviously...... This strategy didn't work, because some people still bit it: "Sixteen hundred." ”
Hearing this, Lu Chengzhang already felt that his heart was about to jump out.
At this time...... But I don't know whose voice: "Three thousand ......"
Three thousand...... Lose your marbles.
Just such a bottle?
Apparently...... Many have begun to hesitate.
That's a lot of money.
It's not that you can't afford the price, after all...... It's just a bottle, after all.
"Three thousand five hundred!" There was a lazy voice with teasing.
Lu Chengzhang was about to faint.
"Five thousand!" Someone sneered, looking determined to win.
5,000 ...... It's astronomical. This is a middle-class family, with a thousand years of income, there are really not many people in this world who can come up with such cash.
Someone was dissatisfied: "A bottle, you spend 5,000 yuan, surnamed Lu, are you crazy?" ”
The surname Lu?
Subconsciously, Lu Chengzhang looked at Lu Wensheng, in fact, he only listened to this, the surname Lu in the world, I was afraid that it must be the Fan Yang Lu family who was serious.
Lu Wensheng was also stunned, five thousand times, this is really a lifetime of silk and satin, a beautiful wife and concubine.
"Five thousand and one hundred thousand."
Obviously, someone continues to bite to the death, not to mention more.
When the time of 5,100 runs, the Lu family, who had been determined to win, obviously began to retreat.
After all, it's not that they can't afford to pay 5,200 yuan, but they know very well that the other party is biting you to the death, and then the price will only be higher. That's the limit.
"Five thousand and one thousand, the first time, is there any, is there any?"
"Five thousand and one hundred times, the second time!."
"Five thousand and one hundred times, the third time!"
Boom!
Final word.
There was already an uproar in the auction hall, and everyone wanted to know who the bidder was.
But the other party is obviously mediocre in appearance, and he is still wearing a hood and a masked.
There are many such people in auction houses.
In the uproar and the blood of countless people, Lu Chengzhang was already in tears, and then fainted directly.
It's so exciting.
He really made a fortune now, just one bottle, which directly made him one of the richest.
Lu Wensheng was also dumbfounded, and for a while, his mind was like paste.
When the people from the auction house arrived in front of him and personally handed over a box of IOUs to Lu Chengzhang, Lu Chengzhang was a little sober.
It was still Chen Fu who came to send the money, Chen Fu looked at him enviously and said: "Five thousand and one hundred guan, it stands to reason that the auction house will receive two percent, and here is four thousand and eighty guan, you can take it." Oh, yes, are you interested in buying a new house, our Chen family, there are a lot of good houses here. Lu Langjun, we can also intermediate and hire hired workers here, and we always need a few slaves at home, as well as a car driver...... There is no interest. ”
"Not interested!" Lu Chengzhang spit out three words, grabbed the box, and then said: "I only want to ask you one thing, can you hire guards here?" Bring me ten. ”
"This ......" Chen Fu said with a smile: "It's true, our Chen family auction house has free escorts, you are a big customer, of course you have to escort for free, in the next few days, someone will be outside to take care of Lu Langjun's home." Five days later, if Lu Langjun still has this need, he can also apply for an extension, but at that time, he will have to collect money, which is not much, 300 wen a day. ”
"Let's talk about it then, and send me home now." Lu Chengzhang suddenly straightened his waist, and this cold door directly changed his fate day and night.
5,100 Tiger Bottle...... It has completely exceeded everyone's imagination.
Those who only have an income of three or five percent all year round can't even imagine when they hear of such a sudden wealth.
Suddenly, Chang'an shook, and the next day's newspaper directly put this matter on the front page, and the enthusiasm for fine porcelain was even higher. And the auction house has also attracted the attention of countless people for a while.
It was just a tiger bottle, and it was immediately sent to the Chen family, and Chen Fu personally delivered it to Chen Zhengtai: "Your Highness, the bottle has been brought." ”
"Get out!" Chen Zhengtai looked at Chen Fu with disgust, this guy was very blind, he was discussing the problem with Wu Jue in depth.
"Whoa." Chen Fu nodded hurriedly and obediently walked out of the study.
Chen Zhengtai weighed the tiger bottle in his hand, sighed and said, "Hey, look at it, just such a thing is worth five thousand and one hundred yuan." Wu Jue, these five thousand and one hundred guan, give it to you. ”
Wu Jue lowered his head and lifted the pen to make accounts, but he didn't raise his eyes.
For the treasure that countless people in Chang'an City are striving for, she seems to be indifferent, but said: "Its value lies in the mathematical model, but also in how to control the production of the tiger bottle, the value is all in the hearts of the people, this so-called baby, can be worthless, can also be worth ten thousand gold, the teacher wants to send me to play, but it is okay, but this kind of broken copper and iron, in the hearts of students, is actually worthless." This gift should be given to those who recognize its value, so ...... in order to show its value. ”
Chen Zhengtai listened to it and was happy, what is the level, this is the level.
Wu Jue has really grown a lot, no, to be precise, he is simply going to improve by leaps and bounds.
Thereupon...... Chen Zhengtai's hand slid and clanged, and the porcelain vase fell to the ground, and then ...... The porcelain vase fell in response to the sound and shattered in an instant.
The magical and high-spirited tiger king is also falling apart at this moment, and the poor tiger is only scum.
"Actually...... This thing, in my eyes, is also worthless! Chen Zhengtai said: "I hate it when I look at this tiger, hmph, I see it once, and I fall it once." ”
