Chapter 45: Two taels of gold

A series of numbers flashed in Gu Huai's mind, four hundred taels, nine hundred taels, eight hundred and fifty taels...... Then there are the portraits, Sha Wuliu, the various merchants and the boss......

His thoughts returned to Sha Wuliu to look at his expression, provocative, disdainful, and eager......

Suddenly, he ran into the crowd with an envelope.

"Gu Huai, where are you going!?" Black Boy watched Gu Huai's back disappear into the crowd, and he couldn't pull it back, and he couldn't call it back.

Many people finished writing the price and began to walk to the middle of the hall, all holding envelopes in their hands, only Gu Huai ran to the side.

Who is he going to?

Gu Huai quickly walked through the crowd in the hall and walked in one direction, his thoughts were already focused on Sha Wuliu, Zhang Fatzi, and the feeling between the two.

Thinking of this, Gu Huai's eyes lit up, and he finally understood that something was wrong.

Sha Wuliu is not seen now, if it is not related to Zhang Fatzi, it must be related to his own offer. Or, Zhang Fatzi, Sha Wuliu's strange performances, and his own quotation are all related.

Gu Huai tried to take a deeper step to ponder this matter.

Sha Wuliu couldn't make an offer by himself, but he always wanted to let himself lose. Then he will find someone to make an offer, and in the middle, he must have leaked the news of himself and Blackboy to someone.

Who needs messages?

The pedicure shop is the shopkeeper.

Zhang Fatzi also came just now, obviously looking for news, and he also talked to Sha Wu or Liu during the period.

It's all too obvious. Why? Because after getting Moyangfang, there is a huge profit margin.

But how much will this fat man, or Sha Wuliu, pay to carry Gu Huai?

Hei Zai has already said the news just now, Zhang Fatzi originally underestimated the value of Moyangfang, which also shows that their budget is there, and it will not be much higher.

Boss You gave himself a budget of eight hundred and fifty taels, and eight hundred and twenty taels was enough for himself, so how would Sha Wuliu suggest Zhang Fatzi?

If he also knew his pricing strategy, he would think of eight hundred and twenty taels.

"That's right!" Gu Huai slapped his thigh, "It must be eight hundred and twenty taels!"

Wait a minute......

Gu Huai felt unclear again. Because in his heart, more than eight hundred and twenty taels can win.

So, how much will it be?

He shook his head, he really wanted to have a cup of anthurium tea to refresh himself at this time, but he didn't.

Everyone had it the day before, but why is it not there today? I really don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the shopkeeper Qiu.

After sorting out this matter from the beginning again, sorting out Sha Wuliu, and his attitude towards himself, Gu Huai asked himself:

The price of Sha Wuliu is secondary, the key is what is the purpose of his doing this?money?let himself lose the game?Or both?

"The time has come, please hand in the quotation envelope—" Shopkeeper Qiu shouted, and more people walked up to the stage with envelopes.

Tai Lai saw that Gu Huai had not come out of the crowd yet, so he was so anxious that he stretched his neck and looked around.

The black boy is more calm. He frowned, holding his chin in one hand and thinking about something.

I don't know when, Sha Wuliu actually returned to the You caravan, and at this moment he was standing up and kicking out, his eyes staring at a certain direction in the crowd, squinting.

At the other end, the shopkeeper also walked out, holding the envelope in his hand, and looked at Sha Wuliu here, looking a little anxious, but as if he was asking something.

Sha Wuliu nodded lightly at Zhang Fatzi, as if giving an affirmative answer.

"Start singing—" Shopkeeper Qiu ordered.

"Where is this guy dead!" Tai Lai saw that the shopkeeper Qiu was about to sing the price, and he was so anxious that he wanted to rush up and quote the price. However, again he did not have a quote envelope.

"Wait a minute!" a voice came from the crowd, and a hand holding an envelope was raised over the head hall of the crowd, rising and falling, and moving quickly from the direction Sha Wuliu was looking.

Gu Huai took the envelope, ran straight to the middle, and threw it into the wooden box.

He finally finished the offer, and Tailai breathed a sigh of relief.

Even the usual indifferent wind is late, and when he sees this scene, he seems to be relieved from the tension.

After receiving Gu Huai's quotation letter, the shopkeeper nodded to the shopkeeper Qiu, indicating that the auction should be able to continue.

"Then, start singing—" The shopkeeper shouted again, and the young man next to him continued to work as he had just done, moving boxes, taking envelopes, putting them away, and preparing to start singing

"The first-class sealed price auction is different from the open outcry auction," the shopkeeper said as he watched the guy count the votes, "Let's sort it out first, and then we only need to sing the highest ticket price, and then—"

This makes sense, because everyone present knows what price they have just quoted. Therefore, as long as the shopkeeper Qiu sings a price, everyone knows the gap in the quotation and knows that they have won or lost.

When the votes were counted, the hall was lively again, and some people did not give up, and asked others how much they paid.

Everyone wants to know the price of other people, but no one is going to show their mouth at this time.

As we all know, these inquiries are just to comfort themselves.

"Shopkeeper Qiu, you guys should hurry up, it's been two days of tossing!" A tall and thin man in the crowd stepped forward, his eyes fixed on the ticket booth, looking nervous and very expectant.

Shopkeeper Qiu looked at him and smiled slightly:

"Qianjin Street Changsheng ticket number is often in charge, don't be impatient, all this is according to the established way, it's useless to be anxious!"

The shopkeeper retreated into the crowd in a huff.

"I, the Yongmei makeup shop on Lejin Street, have you won!?" A woman stood up again, as if she hadn't heard the conversation between Shopkeeper Qiu and Shopkeeper Chang just now, and asked from her home.

Shopkeeper Qiu simply ignored her, and directly turned to look at the guy next to him counting the votes.

After about a pillar of incense, the ticket was settled, and the man handed a piece of letter to the shopkeeper Qiu on the back of the back of the station, facing the people in the audience, and said:

"Shopkeeper, it's okay!"

Shopkeeper Qiu took the piece of paper, glanced at it, frowned slightly, and then glanced at the people in the hall and shouted:

"The results are out, who is the flower in Moyangfang, I have a fixed number here-"

At this time, Sha Wuliu smiled, and then looked at Zhang Fatzi on the other side of the crowd, with a smug smile on his face.

Zhang Fatzi looked at it anxiously, but after seeing Sha Wuliu nodding and smiling again, his expression seemed to be much more relaxed.

"Sha Gongzi, should you?" Tai Lai had already discovered Sha Wuliu's unusual behavior, and was a little suspicious, so he couldn't help but ask tentatively.

Sha Wuliu turned his head and glared at Tai Lai, and said:

"What's the matter?

Tai Lai frowned, wanting to say something, but he still kept his mouth shut and said:

"Ahh ”

Tailai has been working in Youshi for a long time, so he naturally knows what to worry about. Although sometimes the emotions of justice can also influence his behavior, the key to a coachman being in one place for so long is that he has always been in his own position.

"Forget it," Sha Wuliu leaned into Taylor's ear and whispered, "Forget it, don't say it again." ”

After speaking, he and Zhang Fat looked at the shopkeeper Qiu again.

"This auction, the auction item--Moyangfang's business deed--" Shopkeeper Qiu stood next to the parchment scroll with a mana enchantment, pointed at it with his palm and said loudly, "Return to You's store!"

"What!?" Sha Wuliu may have thought he had heard it wrong when he first heard about You's Shop, but after a while, his face was full of disbelief and he said loudly, "How could it be You's Shop!?"

The fat man at the other end, his face was blue and white, first looked at the shopkeeper Qiu, and then looked at Sha Wuliu angrily.

Hearing this result, Tai Lai really couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and shouted:

"Gu Huai is good!"

Hei Zai was a little happy at first, he was happy for Gu Huai, but then he fell into thinking again, as if he had some concerns.

"Shopkeeper Qiu-" Sha Wuliu on the side suddenly shouted towards the middle of the hall, "What's the price!?"

"That's right, Shopkeeper Qiu, what's the price?" the others couldn't hold back, and asked, obviously wanting to know how much money You's store used to win themselves.

Hearing Sha Wuliu's question, Heizai also looked up at Shopkeeper Qiu.

Of course, he didn't worry about how much Gu Huai offered to win others, he was only worried about whether Gu Huai's price was higher than the budget.

Not just worried, but curious.

"In the past, we had a sealed auction here, and everyone paid an integer price," Shopkeeper Qiu said to everyone, "This time there is an exception, it is a price with a fraction." ”

He looked at the letter in his hand again, and said:

"Eight hundred and fifty-two taels!"

returned the fraction of two taels.

"This ......" the others looked at each other, not understanding the reason for this.

"Is there a kid here who is trick-or-treating and giving such a strange price?" someone asked.

"Yes, it's child's play!"

At this moment, no one noticed that Sha Wuliu's face was already very ugly. And, of course, that fat man.

"Everyone, don't be impatient!" Shopkeeper Qiu stretched out his hands and made a downward motion forward, "I can announce the second highest price, but I won't announce the shop with the quotation, what do you think?"

When he said this, Shopkeeper Qiu smiled, the kind of smile that had a good show.

Obviously, he must have been interested in the difference in price.

Others, of course, agreed.

At this time, Sha Wuliu and Zhang Fatzi's faces were even more ugly, even gloomy to the extreme. They didn't seem to want to hear the price of second place, but seeing the overwhelming number of people, they had to swallow the opposition.

"Eight hundred and fifty-one taels!" Shopkeeper Qiu quoted the price of the second place, and there was an uproar at the bottom.

Tai Lai sighed and said:

"If it weren't for the strict regulation of this sub-event, I'm afraid we would all think that someone was cheating. ”

"Yes, it's only one or two pieces of gold, and it's obvious that someone is fighting with the valley. Black Boy responded, and the tone showed that he must have figured something out.

Zhang Fatzi strode to Sha Wuliu's side, and said angrily:

"The good idea you gave, do it for nothing, it's not that you haven't played with others!"

Sha Wuliu didn't expect Zhang Fat Man to be so uncontrollable, and his face couldn't hold back, looking at Tai Lai and their strange expressions staring at him, he replied to the fat man with a black face:

"Shopkeeper Zhang, what do you mean, I don't understand at all!"

"Hmph," said the fat man, "anyway, your own share of the money is gone, go home and daydream!" and then flicked his sleeves and left.

As soon as these words came out, everyone actually understood what was going on.

Obviously, it was Sha Wuliu who colluded with the fat man to carry Gu Huai.

The things to be exchanged here are, on the one hand, the news of Sha Wuliu, which he obtained from the black boy, and on the other hand, the benefits promised to Sha Wuliu by the shopkeeper.

"Sha Gongzi," Tai Lai leaned over again, and said meaningfully to Sha Wuliu, "If you really make a hindrance from it, I'm afraid that You's shop won't be able to tolerate you." ”

"You old thing, let you talk too much?" Sha Wuliu was already angry, and yelled at Tai Lai, without saying a word of courtesy.

"Hmph," Heizai said on the side, "Sha Gongzi, if you put this trick of internal and external enemies in Shakun City, it can be regarded as treacherous to the You family, right?"

Hearing the words "treachery", Sha Wuliu was stunned, as if he had just remembered the connection between the contract and interests. But after a while, his face returned to a hideous expression, glanced at Gu Huai viciously, and said, "We'll see next time!" and left the venue.

Sha Wuliu is really not afraid of the power of the contract?

At this time, Gu Huaizheng went to Shopkeeper Qiu to get the business deed of Moyangfang on behalf of You Shi.

When he came to the front of the shopkeeper Qiu, the shopkeeper Qiu gave Gu Huai a thumbs up and said:

"Clever trick!"

After Gu Huai returned to the caravan, Heizai stepped forward and asked him:

"Where did you get those two taels of gold from?"

Hearing Blackboy's question, Tailai seemed to have just reacted, and also stepped forward to ask:

"Yes, Brother Gu Huai, don't we have that money?"
