Chapter 53: Auction
Qin Yuxin has been in Yanlai Tower for more than ten years, and he is naturally familiar with this middle way, so letting Qin Yuxin come to power is the best effect, if Qin Bingyue goes up, the atmosphere of that night will definitely be embarrassing.
"The character of the Ice Moon girl is not suitable for this." Xuan Shijing smiled: "So, there is still Lao Yuxin's boss lady." ”
Qin Yuxin smiled and didn't say anything else, just nodded in response.
The time was almost up, and Xuan Shijing, Jin Yang, and Qin Bingyue stood on the third floor like this, looking down at the people on the first and second floors.
As the opening of this auction, in order to arouse the enthusiasm of many people downstairs, Qin Bingyue decided to open the dance, this effect is definitely not comparable to Qin Yuxin with a few words.
The time was almost up, and Qin Bingyue went back to the room to change clothes and prepare for the opening.
The visitors of Yanlailou did not receive the news in advance that there would be an opening of Qin Bingyue today, the invitation only said that there will be a charity auction in Yanlailou today, in order to aid Liaodong, there will be some exquisite utensils sold through bidding, some businessmen, naturally are eyeing some of these things, can be sold in such a big battle in Yanlailou, naturally not ordinary, noble businessmen, the most lacking, is money, what they pursue, is only the word "taste", not to mention that the invitation also said, The auction will be carved into a stone tablet according to the total bid, and it will be erected in Chang'an City for the world to pay homage for three months.
It's a great opportunity to make a name for yourself.
All in all, an invitation, coupled with Qin Bingyue's opening dance, brought too many surprises to everyone, you know, since Yanlailou's painting boat was attacked by assassins in Xuanwu Lake, Qin Bingyue has never appeared in front of everyone again, and everyone speculated that Qin Bingyue may have been frightened in that assassination.
Qin Bingyue was well disguised in front of everyone, cold, but weak, but who would have thought that on the boat that day, the last thing to save everyone was precisely the top brand of this Yanlailou, a soft sword, which was superb.
The opening dance is still the same as in the past, with water sleeves dancing lightly, stunning the Quartet.
At the end of the song, Qin Bingyue didn't stop long, so she went straight to the third floor, ready to change her clothes and watch tonight's auction with Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang.
After Qin Bingyue changed her clothes, she saw that Xuan Shijing and Princess Jinyang were still standing in the corridor on the third floor, so she took Xuan Shijing and Jinyang to find a vacant room on the third floor, facing each other from the window and downstairs.
In the field, there were first small servants who moved the table case back to the stage, and then four small servants from Yanlai Building laboriously carried two large boxes and placed them next to the table on the stage, and at the same time, Qin Yuxin also walked down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I think everyone will come to this Yanlai Building today, everyone knows what is going on, so I won't say anything about Yuxin, of course, the key thing is to tell everyone" Qin Yuxin smiled, moved his eyes to the side, and motioned to the little guy next to him to lift the red cloth next to him.
After receiving Qin Yuxin's signal, the little guy lifted the red cloth, and the blank stone tablet that had been carved on one side stood on one side, covered with a layer of pale golden brilliance under the illumination of the lamp.
"It was also mentioned on the invitation that this auction is completely for the victims of Liaodong and the soldiers on the border to raise money, food and materials, so tonight, according to the level of the auction funder's contribution, it will be ranked on this stone tablet for people to pay respects, and then it will be sent to Guiyuan Temple to pray for the master."
Xuan Shijing does not believe in Buddhism, it does not mean that these dignitaries do not believe in it, Qin Yuxin made good use of the psychology of these people, and said such a thing, which also made everyone more recognized this auction.
If you want others to have the desire to pay for it, you have to make people happy.
There are many benefits, and this money is not too desired, not to mention, there will definitely be worthwhile items in hand when the time comes, and they will not return empty-handed.
Of course, the news of the merchants is always more lively than the news of those nobles, and some businessmen have long heard that there is also the Dongshan Hou Mansion behind the auction, that is to say, this auction is indirectly held here by Xuanwu Hug, if it can be used to have a good relationship with Xuanwu Hug's money pile shopkeeper, then the business in Chang'an in the future can be regarded as someone to take care of it.
Among businessmen, it is important to have many friends and many roads.
In this way, those who are popular are even more stingy with the yellow and white things in their pockets.
The first item in the opening scene was Xuan Shijing's dump from his own warehouse.
Speaking of the origin, there are some, according to the money pile, this is the caravan of the Hou Mansion when they came back from the Western Regions, passed through the desert, and saw the remains of a caravan buried in the desert
Although the caravans of the Tang Dynasty traveled frequently with the West through the Silk Road, they were still slightly insufficient in quantity compared to Byzantine goods and others.
And the caravan that folded in the desert, judging from the clothing and clothing, was the caravan from the Byzantine east.
It is said that things are rare and expensive, Qin Yuxin took out a typical Byzantine style of golden earrings, earrings are a pair of two, made of pure gold, square diamond-shaped, there are many hollows in the middle, and the red and blue beads and agate are inlaid on it in turn.
Although it is said that it is less exquisite than the jewelry of the Tang Dynasty, it has a little more exotic style.
Qin Yuxin held up the earrings with both hands, walked to the front of the stage, let everyone see clearly, and then walked back to the table and said: "This is a pair of gold earrings from Byzantium in the Western Regions, solemn and simple, with nine agate pendants on it, everyone here also knows that Byzantium is far away from my Tang Dynasty, and I have to pass through the vast desert in the middle, so there are not many goods and jewelry in Chang'an now in Byzantium. ”
Qin Yuxin did not say that it was low, and the people present would not underestimate the value of this earring, just because it came from Byzantium, this is the value of the item itself.
Regardless of the dynasty or generation, in some things, the moon in a foreign country is always relatively round.
"One hundred!"
Merchants began to bid on the spot, and if they got their hands, whether they were sold or used as gifts, it would be a good choice.
"Two hundred."
"Three hundred."
"Five hundred!" A young man present proudly shouted out the price of 500 yuan.
On a normal day, 300 pieces of jewelry is already the top price, but at this auction, it can often be sold for about twice the price on a normal day.
Xuan Shijing followed the voice and looked over, but he saw an acquaintance, the person who shouted the price was not Marshal Zhao who put on that day to help stun the assassin (to be continued. )
