In this way, the first two batches of cement were taken away by the two places with strong strength.

Needless to say, Gangnam Province is not only rich in resources, it is the land of fish and rice, but also a place where wealthy businessmen gather.

This place in Guannei Road now belongs to the northwest inland, and the economy is average, but during the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City was one of the most prosperous cities in the world at that time, and the economy naturally went without saying.

The first and second places got what they wanted, and the rest of the economy was a little worse and had to compete for the remaining three batches.

The next third round was more competitive than the first two, but although the number of bids increased, each time the price increase was not too large, and it was not as big as before.

Finally, the third batch of cement, after a fierce scramble, finally fell into the hands of the representatives of Henan Province.

"Congratulations to the representatives of Henan Province for winning the third batch of cement with 560,000 taels of silver." The moderator took the lead.

"Next, we started the auction for the fourth batch of cement. I hope you will work harder, don't hesitate. ”

"We bid 500,000 taels of silver from Longyoudao."

"Our Jiannan Dao bid five hundred and thirteen thousand taels of silver."

"Our Lingnan Dao bid 520,000 taels of silver."

"We ......"

"We are willing to bid 550,000 taels of silver, this is our reserve price, I don't know if there is anyone who bids more than us?" The representative of Hedong Province stood up and said, looking a little lacking in confidence.

"Do you have any more bids? The current highest price is 550,000 taels of silver, and if not, you will have to wait for the final round. The moderator continued to work hard.

"Countdown begins, one, two, three......"

"Okay, since no one continues to increase the price, then congratulations to our Hedong Dao for getting the fourth batch of cement at the price of 550,000 taels of silver."

Listening to the host's words, the representative of Hedong Province couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face became excited.

"The last round, the next is about to enter the final round of this auction, and I hope that the representatives who have not yet bid will work harder." The host has an exaggerated expression on his face, trying his best to set off the atmosphere.

The last batch of cement is gone, but there are still six local representatives who have not gotten their hands, so the competition is fierce.

The representative of Longyou Dao was anxious, because the cement was on his own territory, but he didn't expect that his host would not compete until now.

"We, Longyoudao, are willing to bid 550,000 taels of silver." This time, Longyou Dao is bound to win, and it has been raised to the highest price of the first round at the beginning, which is really hard enough.

The representatives of several other places couldn't help but be anxious when they heard it, you shouted so high all of a sudden, what should we do?

Someone began to think of a way, the representative of Jiannan Province and the representative of Lingnan Province couldn't fight on their own, and once they combined, the two places bid together, and half of the family was at that time.

"We Lingnan Province and Jiannan Province bid 580,000 taels of silver together, hoping to win this last batch of cement." The representative of Lingnan Province stood up and said.

The host was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself, why did someone suddenly start a partnership? Looking towards Wang Da Hammer, he wanted to ask Wang Da Hammer if this would work?

Wang Dazhui thought about it, nodded, and felt that it was no problem to only pay for it, and just sell it anyway.

In a few other places, the representatives saw that if you can cooperate, so can we, and they have roped in allies.

In this way, the scene is a bit chaotic.

"Since everyone is looking for allies to bid together, let's take a break from the final auction for a while, and then start when everyone is ready." The host shouted.

Wang Dazhui did not have any dissatisfaction with the host's decision, and felt that he did it very appropriately.

After a cup of tea, the final round of bidding began again, and the auction activity entered the fierce competition again.

"After a break, the last round of bidding resumed, I wonder if everyone is ready?" The moderator opened the remarks.

However, the next auction surprised the host and Wang Dazhui. Because no one expected that the representatives of the last six places would be divided into three groups, and they would fight fiercely with each other.

Lingnan Province and Jiannan Province have partnered and bid 580,000 taels of silver, and the remaining two groups are Hebei Province and Shannan Province and Longyou Road and Huainan Province.

After discussion, the representatives of Hebei Province and Shannan Province offered 600,000 taels of silver.

After discussing with the representatives of Longyou Province and Huainan Province, they offered 650,000 taels of silver.

In this way, the last batch of cement was auctioned at a maximum price of 650,000 taels of silver.

Wang Dazhui did not expect that the cement sales in one year alone would reach 2.8 million taels of silver.

The auction is over, but the cement matter is not over, because Wang Dazhui's cement factory must also provide training and guidance on the use of cement for these places where cement is purchased. This can be regarded as the after-sales service of the cement plant.

After getting the cement, Wang Dazhui began to be busy with the smelting of steel, because the steel production of this era was not only low, but also the smelting technology of steel was very backward, especially the steel that could meet the construction requirements.

However, compared with the zero foundation of cement, the smelting of steel in the Tang Dynasty did not have any foundation.

Although the smelting technology is relatively primitive and the output is even lower, there are many people who can smelt steel, but they cannot smelt steel in large quantities because of technical reasons.

Wang Dazhui directly found the Weapons Casting Department of the Ministry of War to cooperate this time.

Hearing that Wang Dazhui has the technology to smelt better quality steel, the weapon casting department of the Ministry of War is very excited.

immediately reported this matter to his boss Li Ji, the secretary of the military department, Li Ji is not an ordinary person, after he knew about it, he immediately found Wang Dazhui.

"Does Wang Xiannan really have a way to improve steel smelting?" After meeting, Li Ji went straight to the point.

"I didn't expect this incident to alarm General Li Ji, since I said it, naturally I won't be teasing you." Wang Dazhui looked at Li Ji, who was excited like a child, and felt very interesting.

He naturally understands what high-quality steel means, and he also understands the value of the smelting technology he provides, so he is full of confidence.

"Hehe, it's me who is abrupt, don't blame Wang Xiannan, I'm just very surprised, and I don't believe Wang Xiannan." Li Ji listened to Wang Dazhui's words, and also realized that there was something wrong with his speech, and he felt like he was questioning, so he quickly apologized.

Seeing a legendary figure like Li Ji apologize to himself, Wang Dazhui suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said to the other party: "General Li is in a stirring mood, I understand it very well, and I believe that after seeing me smelt new steel, General Li will be relieved." ”
