Chapter 138: Prelude

Palace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Jia Lian followed Wang Ziteng around in circles.

The matter of going to the banquet was prepared by the people in the palace, but what they had to prepare was about the bidding conference.

The original post-banquet bidding was moved to the front, because Jia Lian felt that those merchants might feel better.

All venues, layouts, and arrangements need to be re-selected.

For the type of auction, Jia Lian chose the sealed delivery type, also known as the bidding auction.

Each province has two agents, and the merchant submits the sealed quotation to the palace maid waiting next to him within the specified time, and then selects the ten people with the highest price to enter the second round.

Because the bidding was opened openly, there were ten tables in front of the emperor that were far apart.

There were three rounds of bidding in the second round of bidding.

The first time to bid, the candidate will write down the increased price and give it to the palace maid who is waiting next to him, and then when the time is up, the palace maid will hold up the price.

The two lowest priced candidates were eliminated in this round.

Second round of bidding.

The rules participate in the first bid, and so on until the third bid, leaving the two highest bidders.

The reason why Jia Lian chose this method is to ensure transparency, and secondly, to stimulate everyone's desire to bid, so as to achieve the expectation of competing for the highest price.

These are all things that Jia Lian thought about as early as when he was in Yangzhou.

Of course, he originally thought that he was standing in the position where Wang Ziteng was standing.

This set of plans was not really taken out until today, in order to be able to show his face in front of the emperor.

It makes no sense that he has been busy for nearly two years, and it is all cheap, isn't it Wang Ziteng?

He has no desire for power, but this kind of thing that can brush up on the sense of existence in front of the big boss, Jia Lian is still very positive.

So he told Wang Ziteng that the plan may be different in different environments, and because of the tight time, in order to inevitably achieve the expected effect, it is best to negotiate with the emperor face-to-face.

The Imperial Study.

The emperor looked at the fold in front of him, and his face showed surprise.

For the word bidding, if it weren't for the four words at the back of the plan, he would be unfamiliar.

However, this method is clear.

In fact, the auction system has existed since ancient times.

For example, in the past, the Song and Yuan governments sold certain taxing rights or other rights to merchants and households, and they also used this method.

However, in most cases, open outcry is chosen.

Also known as "up-and-out" or "under-valued outcry".

It means that in the auction process, the auctioneer announces the starting price and the minimum increase of the auction object, and the bidder bids for the corresponding price from the lowest to the highest price, and finally the highest bidder makes three bids and no one responds, and then the hammer is struck.

However, the transaction price shall not be lower than the reserve price.

Although in this way, the transaction price at that time will definitely not be low, but Jia Lian's method is nothing less than more exciting and novel.

With the warm-up of the bidding for election qualifications three days ago, the sense of urgency in everyone's hearts will be stimulated at once.

When there are only ten people at that time, this sense of urgency will be even more geometrical, several times dozens of times more explosive.

Therefore, Jia Lian is very confident in this plan.

After all, standing with Wang Ziteng below, Jia Lian's body trembled a little invisibly.

Last time, because it was a micro-service visit, Jia Lian didn't feel it.

This time he went directly into other people's territory, and he vaguely knew that the emperor was afraid that he would be unfriendly to himself or to the Jia family. The cowardice in Jia Lian's heart came out as soon as he "rubbed".

However, the room was big and empty, and it was clear that there were almost twenty people serving the eunuchs and palace maids and the emperor and prince Teng Jialian, but there was no sound at all.

The silence of the room coupled with the sound of breathing one after another, Jia Lian only felt a chill running from his tail to the back of his head. Even both legs are a little weak, and the mouth is constantly swallowing.

For a long time, Jia Lian felt like centuries had passed.

The emperor finished reading the fold in his hand, and looked at Jia Lian with a somewhat incomprehensible gaze.

"Did you think of it yourself?"

When Lin Ruhai pointed out that he wanted the emperor to send Jia Lian over, and said that Jia Lian proposed the salt drying method in the salt field, the emperor was actually not optimistic about Jia Lian in his heart.

The royal staff has checked the ancestors of the three generations for the first time, although the Jia family has produced the second duke of Ning Rong, but when it comes to Jia Lian's area, it is basically completely abandoned.

In addition, Jia Lian ate, drank, prostituted and gambled in the past, basically everything, and the Jia family made trouble with the title of jade son, so he didn't want to see it.

It's just that the cake that Lin Ruhai painted for him was too tempting, so although he was suspicious and not optimistic, he still let Jia Lian go.

Even in order to ensure Jia Lian's safety, he was given a royal gold medal and granted him the right to cut first and then play.

And what Jia Lian did in Jiangnan later, although Lin Ruhai reported every month, the progress made him staggered, but he also thought that it was just because Lin Ruhai was modest, not greedy for merit, and intended to promote relatives.

So although Jia Lian's impression of him has improved because of his hardships and hard work, he actually has a lot of complaints about Lin Ruhai because of this.

What he wants is a loyal minister, a pure minister, and a lonely minister.

If Lin Ruhai deliberately gave his credit to Jia Lian because he was a relative, then this move was tantamount to the emperor's refusal.

But this time, Lin Ruhai recommended Jia Lian to return to Beijing, and while secretly guarding the palace and bringing back the imperial gold medal, he also brought back Jia Lian's every move in Jiangnan.

Bold, wise, clever, and sympathetic.

This surprised the emperor at the same time, but also made him hesitate what position Jia Lian should be placed in.

So although he already knew and affirmed Jia Lian's merits, he still let him fight in the hands of Wang Ziteng and the like.

Wang Ziteng is not Lin Ruhai, if Jia Lian didn't keep this hand this time, I'm afraid that even if the bidding conference is over, Jia Lian won't want to bubble in front of the emperor.

"Back to the emperor, when I was in Yangzhou, Lord Lin gave me some advice, and Lord Huijing put forward some opinions to Weichen, and Weichen also added some after consideration."

Before leaving, Lin Ruhai told him not to be greedy for merit.

Nodding, the emperor's tightly knit brow loosened slightly. looked at Wang Ziteng again, and opened his mouth with a smile.

"Oh, it turns out that Wang Aiqing and Lin Aiqing are credited."

Wang Ziteng didn't expect Jia Lian to be so upright, and when he heard this, he smiled and waved his hand.

"The saint praises, mainly Lin Yushi and Master Jia have made great contributions, and Weichen just mentioned a few words."
