Chapter 38: Auctions

Can't sell salt? This is bad news for the major families, although the salt is thin but it is a consumable material, every day you need to get the type that belongs to the long stream of fine water, and the salt is also divided into several kinds, the salt for the ordinary people is naturally low-grade and does not make any money, but the best salt is different, the profit is very high, if you don't let it be sold, but you will lose a lot of money.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Chen Mo, after all, if he said this, he should have a way, otherwise it wouldn't be good for him to say it now.

"It seems that everyone has guessed, that's right, this matter is a disaster and an opportunity for you, the monopoly of salt and iron will inevitably increase the price of salt and ironware, so your opportunity has come, and now I will sell you the agent qualification of each state and county on behalf of the imperial court, and the so-called agency means that you have the exclusive right to operate in this state and county."

"It's all about you, how can we believe you? What if you're a fake? "Some shopkeepers are very vigilant, there are many people who occupy the mountains and become kings in these years, and there are naturally many fanatics who pretend to do things in the imperial court.

"I knew you would have such doubts, so I'll let you see someone and ask Master Fang to come out."

As he spoke, he saw the door open, Fang Xuanling didn't really want to come, but the emperor said that he couldn't help but come, if his wife knew that he was in and out of the land of fireworks, he was afraid that he would have to kneel when he went back.

Compared with Fang Xuanling's apprehension, these shopkeepers are excited, Fang Xuanling is not an ordinary person, they all know each other, but when they are prime ministers, naturally they can't fake this matter.

"Let's start the one-year agency auction in Chang'an, the reserve price is 10,000 yuan, and each price increase shall not be less than 100 yuan, and the auction will begin."

Chen Mo slapped a small hammer on the table and shouted, and the shopkeepers below all looked at him silently, until a businessman tentatively raised his small card and shouted, "Ten thousand." ”

"The Li family's shop in the east of the city is 10,000 for the first time!" Chen Mo shouted with a hammer, and then the shopkeepers below seemed to be activated, and they suddenly understood the rules here.

"I'll give 11,000!"

"I'm out fifteen thousand!!"

"A group of poor ghosts, I am a member of the Taiyuan Wang clan, and we will pay 50,000!"

The fixed price directly deterred some people with less capital, of course, some people were frightened by the reputation of the Taiyuan Wang family, after all, the deterrent effect of the five surnames and seven hopes in this era is still very great.

Li Shimin doesn't like this, and now Chen Mo doesn't like it either, because this guy doesn't follow the rules at all, and he uses power to suppress people, so his income is a lot less, how many people are there in Chang'an? How much salt is consumed per day? What is 50,000 guan?

I threw out the low price of 10,000 yuan not to let them pick up the cheap, and when I was about to mobilize my own people to come out to grab it, someone leisurely raised a sign: "I Qinghe Cui's family paid 100,000 yuan, and I bought Chang'an for a year." ”

"You... You dare to stir up the situation with the surname Cui!! The people of the Wang family were originally looking at the shopkeepers around them proudly, but when someone came to snatch it, they were immediately unhappy.

"Whoever stirs up the situation knows in their hearts, how many people in Chang'an need how much salt every year? Just 50,000 people want to send people away, and they use the reputation of the Wang family to suppress people, is it to break the rules of the court, others are afraid of your Wang family, but my Cui family is not afraid. ”

said it very high-soundingly, and he slapped the court's sycophants, but his methods still worked, at least Fang Xuanling smiled as a representative of the imperial court, and there were a lot of 100,000 yuan, this is just one place, and other places are also sold... Fang Xuanling felt that there should be a surplus after starting the war, but he didn't know if he could get some out of His Majesty's hands.

The auction was just a small episode, Chen Mo didn't ask for any of the money he got in it, it didn't work for him to ask for money, just his shop was a thousand times a day, and what he wanted was land.

After the intensive preparations, all the preparations were completed in three months, the grain was transported from Lingnan, and the majestic army was launched.

Chen Mo watched Qin Shubao and the others leave, and continued to return to his small shop, he gave Qin Huaiyu some things, and asked him to insert one in the ground every other state and county, although he didn't understand why Chen Mo did this, but he still did it.

Chen Mo found that his mini-map was really not small, Qin Huaiyu was an ally, and the place he went to was the place he could see, and after the real eye was plugged in, it was very convenient to observe or use the real eye to teleport.

Qin Huaiyu, who didn't know that he was expanding the map for Chen Mo, was like a hardworking little bee, and what was Chen Mo doing at home? Of course, it's a good reputation for grain seeds, and it is impossible to provide so many seeds purchased from the mall, and those are all bought for money.

Take out the seeds and plant them on your own farm, after an extra thousand acres, there is obviously not enough manpower, although Chen Mo knows that Quyuan plow is a good thing, but he can't do it, fortunately, it is still quite easy to recruit people in Chang'an City, since you can't find Quyuan plow, then find more people.

Old man Liu expressed concern about the proprietor's family planting these things, but the proprietor's words had to be listened to, so he didn't ask, but just secretly paid attention to the rise of the things in the ground.

Everything seems to be calm, if Fang Jun doesn't run to himself every day, and he also brings a drag oil bottle with him, it would be better.

"Brother Chen, we're here again!" Fang Jun, this stupid boy is full of vitality every day, Chen Mo always feels that it is a mistake to give him a turnip, the more energetic this kid is, the more troublesome he is, as for which one next to him, it is actually the famous GAY prince, of course, he is not yet, just a little Zhengtai, the nine-year-old little guy is very cute, it is hard to imagine that he will become a GAY in the future.

Chen Mo has never discriminated against special people, as long as he doesn't hurt other people's personal hobbies, he shouldn't be blamed by others, but the current Li Chengqian is too cute, and his future fate is too miserable, which makes Chen Mo feel guilty if he doesn't do something.

"Come on, I'll be fine right away when you sit down first, don't you need to read every day when you're in a hurry?"

Fang Jun didn't care about Chen Mo's words at all, because his father had completely given up on him, this kid's strength was rising day by day, and his brain was gradually becoming active, but when it came to reading, he still had six of the seven tricks, which made his own Lao Tzu almost smoke with seven tricks.

Then his father completely let him go, and turned to raise his eldest son and third son, as for this second son... I haven't been back to eat for many days, and if I don't go home to sleep every day, maybe no one in the family will know.
