When he was in a dilemma, he heard a voice from another private room on the second floor.

"I'll give you 20,000 taels."

The voice had an extremely strong Lingnan accent, and it was not a local when you heard it.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and said in their hearts, "Who is this person, who dares to grab things from this little ancestor, isn't it that he thinks his life is too leisurely?" ”

Then I understood, no wonder, this person was a foreigner when he heard the accent, but I was afraid that he didn't know what it was like.

The shopkeeper was still standing there in trouble, and someone made another bid, but he didn't hear it.

"Shopkeeper, I'll give you 20,000 taels."

The man shouted again in a loud voice.

This time, Shopkeeper Hong finally heard it.

He was overjoyed when he saw that there were still people bidding, but he showed a wry smile at Fu Di, which meant, "Little grandfather, you have to blame me, there are still people bidding again, and I can't fall the hammer." ”

"Twenty thousand taels, this guest bid twenty thousand taels, is there anything higher than twenty thousand taels?"

Shopkeeper Hong settled down and shouted according to his usual routine.

Fu Di in the private room on the second floor, his face was as black as the bottom of the pot, and he was about to have a seizure.

Only Zhu Ping'an was still leisurely sipping fragrant tea, shaking his head and chuckling, "People open the door to do business, we can't rob it." Since someone is asking for a price, we are not people who are worse than silver, and we are higher than him, so why worry? ”

Although Fu Di was extremely unhappy in his heart, seeing that Zhu Ping'an had no intention of going crazy, he had to hold back for the time being.

"Twenty-one thousand taels ......"

At Fu Di's suggestion, Lan Xian shouted out the second price.

"Thirty thousand taels ......"

Without waiting for Shopkeeper Hong to quote again, the Lingnan guest shouted again and directly raised the price by nine thousand taels.

The whole auction room was silent, and there was no sound at all.

The price of 30,000 taels is not too high for this piece of jade. According to expert estimates, the final transaction price should be between 40,000 and 50,000 silver. If it weren't for Fu Di and others sandwiched in the middle, other guests would definitely call this price.

But now it's different, this piece of jade is obviously taken by the little gentleman, and at this time, if you blindly bid, you will obviously not be able to get along with them.

Everyone is in the same mind, anyway, they can't shoot it, so it's better to watch from the wall and see how things are going today.

Fu Di's face was completely gloomy, and the mouths of the other small magnates began to be unclean, and they greeted the eight generations of the ancestors of the Lingnan guests one by one,

At the price of 30,000 taels, Lan Xian didn't dare to make his own claim, so he looked at Zhu Ping'an.

"This person is a little interesting, he actually learned the routines of this Hou Ye, but this Hou Ye doesn't have to pay for things himself. You are so generous, what are the conditions at home, there is a mine? ”

Zhu Ping'an guessed correctly.

The guest was the son of a wealthy family from Lingnan, whose family was a well-known local salt merchant who almost monopolized the entire salt mining business in Lingnan because of their relationship with the Zhennan Wangfu.

When he first entered Kyoto, he got the news that there was an auction of ancient jade for the concubine in Nian Gu Zhai, so he wanted to buy it back and honor the king of Zhennan.

In fact, he was also wondering that with such a good quality, except for a few hairy young men, there was no one else bidding in the entire auction hall.

"I didn't expect Kyoto people to be so stingy. But also, if you want to talk about silver, how can we have more salt sellers. ”

Thinking that he can actually make a splash in Kyoto, I can't help but feel secretly proud.

How did he know that there was something else strange about it.

"Continue ......"

Zhu Ping'an said calmly.

"Thirty-one thousand taels."

Lan Xian asked for the price again, but he was obviously not as confident as before, and the folding fan in his hand shook faster, and it seemed to be a little hot and unbearable.

"With you, these boys, you also want to grab things from Young Grandpa Ben? Young Master, I'll let you see my strength. ”

The Lingnan guest sneered secretly.

"When Young Master Ben was in Lingnan, he heard about how Kyoto was ......, and he often longed for it. When I saw it with my own eyes today, I realized that under the fame, it was actually difficult to live up to ......."

Speaking of this, the Lingnan guest shook his head, "Such a price increase of 1,2000 taels will be so ...... in our Lingnan, that is, the hawkers in the fish market vegetable shops."

The disdain in his tone was revealed.

"I'll give you 50,000 taels!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.

Fifty thousand taels is already the cap price of this ancient jade. Further up, it's a little worthless.

Originally, everyone didn't like the domineering style of Fu Di and others, but today when they saw someone coming out to fight with them, they faintly hoped that the guest would win and beat the arrogance of these little magnates.

Unexpectedly, this Lingnan guest was so rude, even more arrogant than those small magnates, and even sarcastically mocked all the Kyoto people here.

Fu Di and the others don't care about it, but they are authentic Kyoto people. So everyone stood on the side of Fu Di and the others again, and looked at the private room on the second floor together.

"Fifty thousand taels, this guest bid fifty thousand taels, and nothing higher than fifty thousand taels?"

Only the shopkeeper Hong is still quoting according to the rules.

The sweat on Lan Xian's head was about to come down.

Although they have money in their families, they are not easy for their juniors to use. They can still make up 8,000 taels of silver, but now it is 50,000 taels, which is beyond their ability.

What's more, listening to the tone of the southerner, even if he bids again, he will not stop there.

Lan Xian dared to call the shots, so he had to look at Fu Di and Zhu Ping'an with an inquiring eye.

The hall was unusually quiet for a while.

"I said a few dudes, you have a little money, you better keep it and go to the street to buy candy to eat, haha......"

Seeing this situation, the Lingnan guests were even more proud and laughed.

The green tendons on Fu Di's forehead burst out, and he was already extremely angry in his heart. When have they been so humiliated in Kyoto City?

"Little Marquis?"

He called Zhu Ping'an.

He made up his mind that as long as Zhu Ping'an spoke, he would immediately want that kid to be speechless again.

Zhu Ping'an didn't expect that this southerner would be so arrogant, and there couldn't help but have a trace of sharpness in his eyes, and he was obviously very unhappy in his heart.

However, he did not have a seizure, but signaled Fu Di to calm down.

Today is an official auction, although people are arrogant, after all, they still talk with silver, if they use strength, they are afraid that this will be bigger.

Although Fu Di was furious, he didn't dare to go crazy without permission, so he had to sit back in his chair angrily, panting heavily.

"But 50,000 taels of silver, I really can't take it out for a while. Although the quality of this ancient jade is good, it is not difficult to find the same, so I have to find another way. ”

Just when Zhu Ping'an was secretly thinking in his heart, the shopkeeper Hong shouted again, "Fifty thousand taels for the second time, is there anything higher than fifty thousand taels?" ”

Everyone's eyes looked at Zhu Ping'an, and said in their hearts, is Zhu Xiaohou going to admit this today?

"Fifty thousand taels for the third time, is there a ...... higher than fifty thousand taels?"

The speed of Hong's quotation has increased significantly, and it is clear that he wants to complete the deal as soon as possible.

Seeing that no one answered for the time being, the gavel in the hand of the shopkeeper Hong was about to fall.

Everyone couldn't help but be disappointed, today's limelight was finally taken up by the southerners. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face of all Kyoto people.

"My young master will pay 100,000 taels!"

At this moment, a young man in Tsing Yi entered the private room, which was the blessing who was originally waiting outside the auction hall.

"100,000 taels ......"

Everyone gasped.

Even the shopkeeper Hong on the auction stage was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth for a while.
