Chapter 162 [Auction of the Third Treasure]
Today's events are really full of twists and turns!
The Tibetan merchant was carried to the warm pavilion......
This guy was so excited that he pumped himself over.
……
Li Yun returned to the high platform again, arched his hand to the audience, and said apologetically: "The matter of the talent, there is hard work to be treated, this king really didn't expect it to be like this, what is worth celebrating is that I have one more righteous brother." ”
It's just a matter of righteousness, how big is it?
Who doesn't know that you are from a civilian background, and you have never known anything about royal etiquette.
The hundreds of people in the trading compound were not surprised, but they shouted one after another: "I'll wait to congratulate King Zhao, but you can't delay it any longer, the three treasures have just started to be the first, there are still nineteen copies of the twenty secret recipes, time waits for no one, please take a quick shot!" ”
"Okay!"
Li Yun laughed, but he was disdainful in his heart, and said secretly: "Fuck, this is really in a hurry to find death, send money and send it to harvest, I have never seen such a cute leek." ”
Without further ado, the auction is starting again!
What is amazing is that the next scene was really guessed by the Tibetan businessman Jia. Because everyone competes by slowly increasing the price, they unknowingly pushed the price to a high level.
When the nineteen secret recipes were finished, they found that each copy was as high as 300,000 yuan.
In this era, there are not so many copper coins, and many buyers who have won the auction are using the goods to offset them.
For example, the monarch of Xiaowan in the Western Regions, the way to pay is ten boxes of agate, the monarch of Loulan is more tyrant, and directly smashed out three boxes of gold, the Dayue clan is relatively poor, and the thing agreed with Li Yun to pay is twenty carts of brocade carpets, and the three kingdoms of Liaodong also bought one, basically using mink and ginseng to settle the payment.
If these goods are sold slowly in Datang, Li Yun's final income will definitely be more than 300,000 yuan for a secret recipe, and he has a trading center in hand, so he will naturally not shirk this kind of good thing.
Twenty copies of the charcoal secret recipe, one was obtained by the Tibetan merchants, twelve were bought by the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, one was each one of the three kingdoms of Liaodong, and the remaining four copies were swallowed by the five surnames of the Tang Dynasty, Qiwang.
In fact, it is no longer five surnames and seven wangs, it should be said that there are four surnames and six wangs, because the Fan Yang Lu family is gone, and the entire family lineage has died for the country.
But after all, the Lu family still has Miao descendants, and the Manmen died for the Tang Dynasty, so although the court is in decline, no one dares to remove the Lu family from the ranks of the family openly.
still uses five surnames and seven hopes as a collective term.
Although the five surnames and Qiwang are top wealthy families, there is also some pressure to pay 300,000 yuan, and Li Yun is waiting for this moment, he asked the family to buy all four secret recipes to pay for food.
This request was a bit excessive, and the Maison clearly did not want to agree.
Since ancient times, there are clouds, there is food at home, and there is no panic in my heart.
In ancient times, being rich was not called being rich, but being rich was really rich when there was food.
They want to pay with silk or silk, but Li Yun wants silk to have a fart?
The two sides kept arguing about this matter, and finally provoked Li Yunmao, suddenly pretended to be crazy, and said angrily: "Lao Tzu is kind to persuade me, you just don't listen, fuck, where is Li Chongyi, where is Cheng Chumo, quickly bring the hammer for the teacher, today I will teach them what it means to convince people with virtue, do it, first kill a river of blood, and then kill a bloody pestle, wahaha, I want to kill from the south to the north, and then from the day to the dark, ahahaha, the family dog thief ......"
It's still singing!
The family immediately confessed!
I can't afford to be troubled!
Although everyone knows that Li Yun is probably pretending, but the father does have a hidden disease in this area, Li Yun can also go crazy one by one, and it really doesn't look like a normal person.
How can a normal person say that he is crazy?
After all, he is now a prince, and no one would slander his reputation like this.
So it was quickly negotiated, and the two sides made an agreement, and the price of the four secret recipes was 1.2 million yuan, all of which were converted into grain and paid to Li Yun.
That's not a small number!
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the price of grain was relatively high, generally 100 yuan for rice, 10 buckets for one stone, and one stone of grain was almost the same money.
In other words, the five surnames and seven hopes want to give Li Yun 1.2 million stone grain.
This is enough for the people of Fanyang City to eat for four or five years.
Even if it is taken out to help the entire Hebei Province, 1.2 million stones can support it for six or seven months, and at that time, it will be next year's autumn harvest......
……
Twenty copies of the secret recipe were sold out, but everyone was still watching, and suddenly someone couldn't bear it, and hurriedly roared: "His Royal Highness King Zhao, hurry up and auction the second treasure, we already know, what you want to sell is the secret recipe for making salt, we don't need to heat up in Jiangnan, keep the money and wait to buy your secret recipe for making salt, with this secret recipe, our Sun family can also make salt, ahaha, hey, why are you looking at me with strange eyes......"
The goods couldn't continue to finish, and was directly beaten out.
It was the first time that the two high-level factions of the Tang Dynasty reached an agreement, and scolded while beating people: "You Jiangnan Sun also want to contaminate the salt industry?" Let's talk about it when it reaches the bell and the peak food......"
After the beating, the prince and the family Wenchen looked at Huo Huo and coerced the audience to ask: "Who else wants to buy the secret recipe for making salt?" ”
In fact, there are no absolute rules in the world.
Even if Li Yun kept repeating how strict his rules were, there were some rules that he could not set up by himself.
For example, this secret recipe for making salt, he can indeed auction it according to the rules, but there are not many people who dare to buy it.
Whether it is Li Shimin or the family, or the princes and nobles of the Tang Dynasty, they have reached a tacit understanding today.
These people will not break Li Yun's rules, and they will not stop Li Yun from auctioning the secret recipe, but they can prevent others from buying ......
The salt industry is not something that a small family can refer to.
In fact, Li Yun had already guessed this scene, Li Shimin's idea to sell the secret recipe in Nuan Ge was his idea, and now he took it out on the high platform and pretended to be an auction gesture, which was nothing more than taking the opportunity to publicize the salt industry.
And so the second auction ended.
At this time, it was already evening, and the sky was gradually getting a little darker, but the wind and snow still did not stop, and they continued to fall, and there were small houses shuttling in the trading compound, filling hundreds of stoves with coal, and the fire was blazing and splashing, and the courtyard was roasted like spring.
Although it was late, no one was in a hurry to leave, on the contrary, everyone was in a hurry, and they all looked up at the high platform, even Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, and the emperor and his family were also waiting for the third treasure to appear.
At this time, Li Yun suddenly clapped his hands.
Hundreds of small servants suddenly walked out of the back of the trading compound.
These little guys were a little cringed when they first appeared, but they soon mustered up the courage to come quickly, and each little guy chose a stone bench to stand, and waited beside everyone with low eyebrows.
Many people felt curious, and couldn't help but turn around and look, they found that the little guy was carrying an iron kettle in his left hand, and he was very careful to hold a porcelain bottle in his right hand.
Li Yun's voice suddenly covered the audience, and said leisurely: "People live for a lifetime, food, clothing, shelter and transportation, first seek to be full, and then ask for good food, after eating well, they are not satisfied, I hope to further enjoy it, I can't hide it, my third treasure is not for the poor, my three treasures are to be sold to you, only those of you who no longer worry about hunger will pay attention to further enjoyment......
Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and said with a hint of mockery: "For example, the Taiyuan Wang family, it is said that in the summer, the plum will be transported back from the Jiangnan Express Horse, thousands of miles away, people and horses will not stop, and when the plum arrives in Chang'an, the branches and leaves still maintain the verdant color, a bowl of sour plum soup, it costs two dollars, but it only takes three or four sips to drink it dry, this bowl of sour plum soup can allow ordinary families to buy enough food for two months." Tut-tut, the family is really enjoying it, it's even more enjoyable than the emperor, my second uncle is hot in the summer, and at most he just drinks a sip of ice water to relieve the heat. ”
These words were too hard to slap the face, and the families present couldn't sit still, Taiyuan Wang suddenly stood up and arched his hand and said: "King Zhao said this, the old man didn't dare to agree, my family's money is not plundered, but the accumulation of hard work of our ancestors, the predecessors planted trees, the descendants took advantage of the cold, we drank a bowl of sour plum soup, that is also the ancestors' generous gift to the younger generations." ”
Li Yun laughed, nodded and said: "Yes, yes, yes, this is the reason, you have money, it is passed down from your ancestors, this king should not talk nonsense, in fact, I just sighed." ”
It's still ironic.
The person of the Taiyuan Wang clan twitched a few times, and finally decided to pretend not to understand, but just snorted lightly: "It's okay for King Zhao to sigh, but don't go crazy, you just shouted to go crazy, my family has lost 1.2 million stone grain in a blink of an eye." ”
Li Yun looked at him with a smile and said lightly: "That's the money you should pay." ”
This is a pun, it seems to mean that you should pay money to buy honeycomb coal, and it seems to say that your family should spit out the blood of the people if you suck it, in short, he didn't say it explicitly, and it was inconvenient for the family to refute it for a while.
Li Shimin was afraid that he would fight with the family again, so he directly said: "King Zhao, don't forget the business, what is the third treasure, I and everyone are waiting." ”
Li Yun laughed, arched his hand at Li Shimin, and suddenly raised his hand to point at the little guy standing next to the emperor, pretending to be naughty and said: "Second uncle, look, the treasure has already been sent to you." ”
Li Shimin was slightly stunned, and turned his face to look at the little guy beside him.
At this time, I saw the little guy slowly step forward, first put the iron kettle in his hand on the table next to the stone bench, then picked up the silk handkerchief and carefully wiped a tea cup on the table, and then carefully opened the porcelain bottle in his hand, and gently poured out some small particles.
After doing these few steps, I picked up the iron kettle, and suddenly raised my slender hand high, and there was a stream of hot water in the iron kettle flowing down, but listening to the sound of water droplets splashing in the tea cup, it was crisp and pleasant, and it was very beautiful.
This action is done in one go, I am afraid that it will take at least three or four months of training, Li Shimin is pleasing to the eye, and he can't help but nod slightly.
At this time, I suddenly heard the eldest grandson empress 'ah', pointed to the tea bowl and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, look at it, it's so green." ”
Li Shimin suddenly turned his head.
But in the table mountain tea cup, the hot water white mist is churning, and the water is faintly revealing a touch of green, which looks crisp in this winter.
A faint fragrance of tea, indescribably refreshing.
At this moment, Li Yun's voice once again covered the audience, and said leisurely: "Drinking tea in the world is all boiled by fire, adding condiments, adding oil, and taking a sip, just like yellow soup, this is not called drinking tea, this is called drinking oil, I have a way to make clear tea, the aroma is overflowing, please taste it......"
Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and suddenly said: "For this tea, this king specially wrote a poem, everyone listen, let me sing!" ”
When you do business, you have to have some characteristics when you sell.
Selling briquettes and selling secret recipes before, it was a vulgar thing, so you could shout at the top of your voice and constantly stimulate others to add money.
But now it's tea that's sold.
This thing has to be elegant......
Li Yun lowered his throat lightly and coughed to find an accurate tone.
Then under the eyes of the audience, he said leisurely: "The guests come to tea as wine on a cold night, and the bamboo stove soup is boiling red." Usually the same window in front of the moon, there are plum blossoms are different! ”
"Good poetry!"
As soon as Li Yun's words fell, he suddenly saw a person standing up and praised loudly: "What a tea poem, written enough to entertain guests, I didn't expect that King Zhao was proficient in literature, the old man was really surprised." ”
Li Yun's face was a little red, he copied this poem, he saw that the person who stood up shook his head, it was clearly the kind of character who was a literary idiot, he was afraid that the other party would pull him to do another song, so he hurriedly said: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is my tea, leisurely and elegant, please drink it......"
He won't say anything about it here.
Because there is no need to say it.
But seeing that in the entire trading compound, countless people have long been attracted by green tea, each holding a tea cup, and then drinking it slowly.
After a moment, there were suddenly countless sounds of spitting breath.
Call!
White gas everywhere.
"Comfortable......"
Hundreds of people exclaimed.
Li Yun chuckled, and said secretly in his heart: "Comfortable, right?" If you're comfortable, you have to pay for it! ”
See that I will not slaughter you......
