Zhang Shicheng once gave Ma Du ten big pearls, each of which was enough for family heirlooms, and the one in front of him was much more than what Zhang Shicheng gave and was golden, which could not be found.

Even though the reserve price was as high as three thousand taels, there was still an endless stream of people holding cards, Lao Zhu turned his head and whispered to Han Cheng beside him: "Do you think the pearls on my golden silk wings are a little smaller." ”

Han Cheng whispered: "It's really not as good as the bead in Uncle Guo's hand." ”

Lao Zhu smiled: "Then what are you still doing in a daze, don't shoot it quickly." ”

Huang Youcai on the side whispered: "What did you two talk about? ”

"Brothers?" Lao Zhu smiled and asked, "Are we like brothers?" ”

Huang Youcai said: "Isn't it? It looks so good. ”

Han Cheng smiled: "Where do I have that blessing, we are talking about taking that bead down." ”

"That bead is very rare, can be used as a family heirloom, if it is kept for twenty or thirty years, when the world is prosperous, I am afraid that it will rise several times. It's just that I can't grab 20,000 taels, I'm reluctant to make a move, and I have to keep the capital to do business, so forget it. ”

Such beads are indeed not something that ordinary rich people can afford, and most of the people in the audience who increase the price are the maritime merchants brought by Shen Wansan, and they are the richest and the most generous.

For Huang Youcai, a guy who looks at people in the crack of the door, he has to slap his face hard, Han Cheng sneered disdainfully, raised the brand, and shouted loudly: "One hundred thousand taels!" ”

Anyway, he is only responsible for bidding and snatching things down, as for whether Lao Zhu will settle the bill for Ma Du, he doesn't care, this voice shouted out and the audience was silent, and the people who were ready to bid immediately flashed to their tongues, and the hands that had been raised halfway up immediately retracted, and they all twisted their heads to look in the direction of Lao Zhu.

Ma Du almost jumped to scold his mother, but he didn't expect Lao Zhu to be the biggest shit stirrer, with his shameless personality, even if he called out a sky-high price, it was estimated that he would not give Ma Du a copper coin.

"No one should be bidding anymore, right?" Ma Du knocked on the hammer, gritted his teeth and said, "Congratulations to the distinguished guest over there, this bead is yours!" ”

Lao Zhu just likes to see Ma Du eat deflated, and he couldn't help laughing out loud, and Huang Youcai's eyes on the side were about to pop out, "Please forgive Huang's clumsiness, Brother Zhu is really hidden, and the offense is still to Haihan." I don't know what Brother Zhu does to make a living......"

Lao Zhu, who made a generous move, immediately attracted the attention of the people around him, and there were several people around him who came to climb the relationship. Ma Du, who had suffered heavy losses, had to help him break the siege, "Everyone, look at me, there is still a large piece of gem from the South Seas here in Benhou......"

Ma Du took a few rare objects from Nanyang in a row, "The things I personally want to sell today have been sold, but I still have to sell some things for the imperial court." ”

Hearing that the imperial court was also going to sell things, the wealthy merchants in the audience immediately became interested, but when Ma Du showed it, they were disappointed. Not a glittering treasure, not a beautiful and comfortable house, but a few pieces of land on a wild island thousands of miles away.

What are you kidding, our own fertile land is still not suitable for tenants to plant, who will go to the wild island to buy land, unless the brain has a convulsion. Could it be because the house treasures just now were sold for too much money, which made this young uncle get carried away, we are all old fritters in the shopping mall, do we take us for fools?

But the facts in front of them made them can't believe it, there are a handful of people sitting in the front are competing for the price, all of them are blushing and thick-necked, among them, there seem to be three foreigners who are the most fierce, and the price increase is also the most ruthless, it seems that they can fight at any time.

Whether it is the rich merchants who moved in or the local wealth, they can't understand it one by one, God, is it impossible to have gold mines on those few pieces of land?

In fact, there were no gold mines on those few lands, and they couldn't even grow crops, but they could still make a lot of money.

In just a few months, the wharf in Penghu has become a scale, and merchant ships are weaving back and forth. The warehouses on the wharf have become the most profitable business, and there are a few warehouses that are built early, and the income in a month can be as little as thousands or more than nearly 10,000 taels.

Running a boat at sea seems to make a lot of money, but it is risky, sometimes it is a few months, and if you carefully calculate it, it is about the same as a warehouse on the dock, which is a profitable business.

Ma Du is now auctioning the best land in the original position, I have to say that he is very prescient, with realistic interests as a reference, the maritime merchants did not hesitate to make a move this time, and even the three Ryukyu countries were involved.

The policy of opening the sea trade in the Ming Dynasty and stopping the Penghu tax reduction was a fatal blow to the three countries of the Ryukyus, and the envoys of the three countries stationed in Yingtian also begged Lao Zhu not to do it. Just kidding, what kind of person is Lao Zhu, it's strange that he will spit out what he eats in his mouth!

Although it is only a small country, as the maritime turnover center of East Asia, the family background is very rich, which is not comparable to the ordinary maritime merchants, Shen Wansan has to avoid its edge, and the best territory all falls into their hands.

Huang Youcai has also seen the world, but the scene in front of him made him doubt his common sense, the three foreigners spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy a piece of wasteland on a desert island where grass does not grow, and it seems that they are still happy.

Is there really a gold mine on it? He looked at Lao Zhu and asked in a low voice: "Brother Tai, do you know the doorway?" ”

"You know, it's just the benefit of sea trade, how can you get it? Are you also interested in doing sea trade? ”

Huang Youcai smiled, "I have long heard of the huge profits of sea trade, but there is no way." Today is not in vain, I have grown a lot of knowledge, since the South Seas are rich in pearls, gems, spices, red sandalwood, if it is transported to the Ming Dynasty, the income should not be less. Well, I don't know if Brother Zhu is interested in sea trade? ”

Lao Zhu said with a smile: "Naturally, I am interested, this sea trade can make me a lot of money." ”

"I was worried that I had nowhere to burn incense, but today I met a real Buddha!" The two-foot distance between Huang Youcai and Lao Zhu disappeared as soon as he moved his buttocks, and he climbed on Lao Zhu's shoulder with one hand, "How about Brother Tai let me mix a share under it?" Or help me show the way, sell silk in Xia, if you are out of stock, you can find me, I know a lot of people who do porcelain trading, and I will definitely be able to help you in the future......"

Huang Youcai didn't pay attention at all when he was excited, Han Cheng's arm had already passed in front of Lao Zhu's body, and a black hole in the sleeve of the gun barrel was about to hit his chest.

Behind him, Yuan Sheng stretched out his arm and put it on the back of the chair, and the sharp tip of the snow knife penetrated into the gap in the back of the chair, aiming at the back of his heart, as long as he moved the slightest abnormally, he was afraid that he would be killed immediately.

Huang Youcai was still talking about recommending himself to Lao Zhu, but a big head suddenly popped out in front of him, and he saw him laughing loudly with a popsicle in his mouth: "Your Majesty, you are here!" My marquis asked me to find you, uh-"
