Chapter 204: Live Broadcast
Next, the salvage work of the sacred tree was naturally launched.
The bigwigs know very well in their hearts that there is a great chance that there will be a superb Shenmu in the concentration of so many divine trees, although this superb Shenmu is very likely to be handed over to the imperial court, but even if there is a glimmer of hope, the bigwigs are unwilling to give up.
The better the quality of this divine tree, the older it is, the stronger the natural spirituality, once there is something that can be related to longevity, as long as it is a person who still has desires, it will not be able to resist this temptation.
However, the magnates and businessmen who came here were not only the most heavyweight bigwigs like Lou Chuan, but also many people had gathered on both sides of the tributary at this time.
Auctions are directly linked to personal wealth, but it does not mean that you are a nobleman, and you have a title to give you an advantage over others. The money obtained from this auction is not Xiao Mo's own, but is used for military expenses, so for Xiao Mo, the real main customers are still those businessmen on both sides of the tributary who are extremely rich, in the words of later generations, they are local tyrants.
On the ship of Sihailou, there is still a megaphone made by Xiao Mo that day, and because of the huge size of the ship, although the width of this tributary is really not small, the distance from the two sides of the strait to the ship is naturally very close.
Xiao Mo saw that the people were almost here at this time, and the preparations were almost done, so he said loudly: "I invite you to come today, just to give you a good show of taking the treasure, I think you should know what this treasure is, and then it will be." ”
As Xiao Mo's words fell, the two soldiers entered the river along the thick hemp rope and began to repeat their previous work.
At the entrance of this tributary, due to the reason of the water erosion, the silt is not deep, so it is relatively easier to take the dead trees, as long as the thick hemp rope is tied firmly, the dead trees can be easily pulled up by a dozen soldiers by using the pulley group.
The magnates who saw this novel and labor-saving process naturally had a strong interest in Xiao Mo's pulley. Among these people, which one of them did not have some property in his family, and which one did not own a lot of good land. Such a simple and labor-saving method is very clear about the role of improving productivity.
Productivity is the last word in any era, in the same industry, your productivity is higher than others, which means that you will make more money than others. In the eyes of the powerful in any era, the more money the better, who would dislike having more money?
And in order to show these magnates that the dead wood taken out is indeed something special, Quan Zhian had to personally open a dead wood in front of everyone, when the wood heart of the dead wood was exposed in front of people, the metal-like luster, coupled with the wood-like texture, instantly attracted the attention of the magnates.
Moreover, the ebony formed in the heart of this dead tree is of higher quality than the previous one, and it is faintly glowing purple in the sunlight. This makes the hearts of the powerful even more nervous.
Moreover, the magnates are like this, not to mention the huge wealth of businessmen. The family has a deep heritage, although the Shenmu is extremely rare, it is only born once in many years, but the family has been inherited for many years, and it cannot be said that there is no Shenmu in its own treasure house, it is just a matter of more or less, high quality.
But for the vast majority of businessmen who are extremely rich, they may have only been rich for a few generations, and some people even have families, and it is only in their own generation that they can be regarded as a person with a head and a face. The only difference between them and ordinary people is that the people have heard of it or not, and they have heard of it. But if you want to talk about the substance, it's really the same, isn't everyone the same without Shenmu.
Therefore, for these people, the attraction of Shenmu is much greater than that of the powerful, because this thing proves a person's identity and status. And it just so happens that this group of people are basically outburst households, and the most important thing is copper. When the time comes to auction, Xiao Mo believes that this group of people will definitely be the main force.
The live broadcast of the salvage of the sacred tree is also a means of publicity for Xiao Mo's auction, and many people will have a very different reaction when they hear it and see it with their own eyes.
Maybe when someone hears that there is a sacred wood for sale, many people will instinctively feel that the thing is precious and must not be their turn, and they still don't have to join in the fun. For businessmen who are rich but not high-status, they generally do not take the initiative to compete with the powerful for anything. Because having money is far less powerful than others.
But as soon as Xiao Mo broadcast live, the merchants all felt that they had a chance, not for anything else, just because there were a lot of Shenmu in this tributary, and the businessmen used to worry about being retaliated against for grabbing things with the powerful, but when the magnates bought them and the Shenmu still had a surplus, the businessmen would no longer have any care in their hearts.
In this case, it can't be regarded as a competition with the magnates, because those who should be given have already been humbled, and it is impossible for the magnates to pull down their faces and take revenge on the merchants because of this.
Therefore, Xiao Mo's live broadcast had a very good effect, at least the businessmen present had already made up their minds, at least they had to get some divine trees.
With the deepening of the salvage, the building boat has begun to slowly sail into the tributary, not far from the first wooden bridge of this tributary.
At this time, there were already a lot of dead trees piled up on the ship, and if the heart of the tree was full of sacred trees, the value was already very great. This made everyone on both sides of the strait watching the salvage a little itchy in their hearts, even if it was a few bigwigs on the ship, they couldn't see that they could calm down at this time.
However, as the boat deepens, the difficulty of salvage begins to slowly increase, because the closer you get to the center of the tributary, the deeper the silt at the bottom of the river will be, and the more dead trees will be buried in, and the greater the salvage force will naturally be.
At this time, the whole tree began to be buried deep in the mud. At this time, it is already very troublesome to tie the thick hemp rope to the tree buried deep in the mud, let alone salvage it, even if there is Xiao Mo's pulley group labor-saving method, at this time there is already a situation where the soldiers can't pull it.
However, there are drawbacks and difficulties, and naturally there are corresponding advantages and benefits. The entire trunk of the tree, which was buried deep in the mud, was basically intact when salvaged, and there was no surface decay.
This complete Divine Tree is not comparable to the previous kind of tree heart, this is already two different levels of concepts. Moreover, this complete sacred tree, both in terms of quality and vintage, far surpasses those tree hearts.
As soon as these complete sacred trees were salvaged, the people watching on both sides of the strait were already a little unable to sit still, and they were eager to buy this complete divine wood immediately. is the extremely big guy on the ship, and he is also gearing up to look like he is bound to win.
Quan Zhian also couldn't calm down at this time, for him, as a eunuch, such a complete divine tree was enough to create a complete divine wood coffin.
Quan Zhi'an was not sure whether there was such a complete 10,000-year-old divine tree in the silt at the bottom of the river, and although he was looking forward to it at that time, he was not too excited. Seeing the real thing with his own eyes at this time, Quan Zhian was also a little uneasy, this is a complete 10,000-year-old psychic divine tree, and the temptation for him is too great.
At this time, only Xiao Mo is the calmest, in his previous life Xiao Mo archaeology, there are not a few ebony that he has seen, and he has also seen a lot of extremely high quality, that is, the top golden silk nanmu Xiao Mo has played with it, although it is Xiao Mo's own, but this does not affect Xiao Mo's resistance to Shenmu at this time.
Xiao Mo only felt that the matter of military spending was finally on the score, and he didn't have to worry about it. (To be continued.) )
