Chapter 209: The Auction III

The melodious music gradually subsided, and the dancers gracefully retreated slowly and orderly to both sides, and when the last two dancers parted, an old man with a white beard appeared in the middle of them smiling and stroking his beard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, soon some guests reacted, pointing to the white-bearded old man and said, "Isn't this Dong Lao in the Jingshi Juya Zhai?!" It turned out to be him! Ju Ya Zhai, the largest antique dealer in Daming Jingshi, and this Dong Yibo is the shopkeeper of this antique firm, because of his knowledge, business and integrity, Tong Suo is not bullied, and treats people kindly, so it enjoys a high reputation in this antique circle, and is respectfully called: "Dong Lao!" ”

"Hello everyone! I'm Dong Yibo, and I believe there are many friends here who know Lao Yu! It's great to be here today! Dong Yibo bowed around the auction hall

"Dong Lao is good!" There were quite a few businessmen who greeted each other with a smile.

"It turned out to be Dong Lao! It's perfect to have you as the auctioneer! A businessman said with a smile.

"Thank you for your trust and support! I am fortunate to be invited to be the auctioneer this time, and I will try my best to do a good job. Dong Yibo said with a smile, Dong Yibo's modesty and politeness couldn't help but make people feel good.

"Aiqing! This person looks good! Chongzhen said with a smile.

"Back to Your Majesty! In Jingshi, if this person says that he has the second eyesight for good things, no one dares to say that he is the first! Tian Hongyu said with a smile.

"This person doesn't seem to be a person with good fame and fortune, how did Aiqing invite him?" Chongzhen asked with interest.

"Back to Your Majesty! Although this person is not good for fame and fortune, but he is good at these antique things, when he saw the three treasures, he was stunned, he couldn't put it down, Weichen thought about whether to cooperate with this person, their Juyazhai is the largest and most famous antique dealer in Beijing, even if there is no auction in the future, if we have good things, we can also put them to sell, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy! Tian Hongyu said with a smile.

After hearing this, Chongzhen smiled and said, "Is there anything good that he will sell to him first?" ”

After hearing this, Tian Hongyu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is wise! Then he said: "This is the first time to hold an auction, although he likes those three treasures, but he is embarrassed to accept them, he also has his own principles!" But since the two sides are willing to cooperate, it is only natural to come and help! ”

"Not bad! Not bad! Chongzhen nodded.

At this time, Dong Yibo in the auction hall said with a smile after introducing himself: "I won't say much about the old decay if I have any extra words, now I announce that the auction will start now!" Now for the first lot! Subsequently, the curtain behind Dong Yibo was opened, and a beautiful maid walked out, followed by four big men, only to see four big sweaters carefully carrying a brocade box slowly onto the stage, after standing still, Dong Yibo signaled the maid to open the brocade box, the maid nodded, the jade hand gently opened the lid of the box, at the moment of opening the lid of the box, a red light suddenly radiated from the box, shaking the guests couldn't help but squint their eyes, and after everyone got used to it, they saw that the brocade box was a spear, only to see that the gun was about more than a zhang long, The end of the gun is carved with a fire dragon head, the head of the gun is a dragon's tongue, shaped like a flame, and a touch of fiery red light flows, showing extraordinary power.

"Good gun!" This is the unanimous thought of all guests at this time.

At this time, Dong Yibo stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This gun is called Gentian Fire Silver Gun, the body of the gun is made of mixed iron and steel, one foot and five feet long, weighing nine hundred and eighty-one pounds, the gun is sharp, and it will die when it is pointed, and the gun body is huge, and it will die when swept away." It is definitely an excellent collection for friends who love weapons, and you can rest assured that this gun has been applied to the imperial court and allowed to be collected! ”

Suddenly, many guests began to have a round, although this gun is good, but most of them are indifferent to weapons, and then the imperial court strictly controls weapons, and if you don't pay attention to a private weapon to try to rebel, isn't it miserable? Although it has been applied to the imperial court, it is always more troublesome, but for this auction house to be able to carry out this weapon auction, the strength of this auction house is becoming more and more apparent.

For this auction weapon, Chongzhen was also stunned, looked at Tian Hongyu, looked at His Majesty the Emperor's puzzled eyes, Tian Hongyu smiled and said: "Your Majesty! This weapon is to let the guests feel our strength, so that they can rest assured; Second, Weichen heard that the British Duke is a person who loves weapons, and he will be interested in such a weapon in the future. ”

"You!" Chongzhen smiled and pointed at Tian Hongyu.

"Your Majesty! Wechen is all dedicated to His Majesty's sake! Tian Hongyu said respectfully.

"Aren't you worried that I'll give you the sin of hiding weapons?" Chongzhen asked.

"Your Majesty! This is cast by a famous teacher of the imperial court, and the imperial court has a record, even if the silver is photographed, it is owned by the imperial court! It's not a private collection of micro-ministers! The cabinet has also approved it! Tian Hongyu responded.

"What did Aiqing think about the auction of the casting weapon at that time?" Chongzhen said with a smile.

"Back to Your Majesty! The minister thinks that if some princes and nobles come, they must have liked this thing, and it is good to be prepared when the time comes, so that every guest can buy what they like is also a goal of this auction, and it is really impossible to sell it and send it back to the military department when the time comes, and the cost of this creation is from Weichen! The imperial court has no loss! Tian Hongyu said with a smile.

"It seems that Elder Sun Ge has given you a green light!" Chongzhen said with a smile.

"Elder Sun Ge is also thinking about the court! For Your Majesty's sake! Tian Hongyu said with a smile.

Chongzhen nodded, did not continue to speak but looked at the audience, at this time Tian Hongyu asked Lu Xiangsheng with a smile: "Governor Lu!" How about this gun? ”

However, Lu Xiangsheng didn't answer, which made him stunned, and then he looked at Lu Xiangsheng, only to see that Lu Xiangsheng at this time had been attracted by the gentian bright silver spear on the auction floor, and his mind was all on it, and he didn't hear Tian Hongyu's question at all.

With the emperor there, Tian Hongyu didn't dare to speak loudly, and the official position was there, although he was the national abbot, it was just an honor, Chongzhen also noticed Lu Xiangsheng's reaction, smiled and raised his voice: "Brother Lu!" Do you like this gun? ”

Chongzhen's voice finally pulled Lu Xiangsheng's soul back, and when he heard the emperor ask himself, Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly said, "Back to Your Majesty!" Wechen really likes this gun, this gun is the best weapon Wechen has ever seen! ”

"With the eyes of Governor Lu, it seems that Tian's efforts are worth it!" Tian Hongyu said with a smile.

While they were talking, Dong Yibo's voice also rang out and said with a smile: "The starting price of this gun is two thousand five hundred taels, and each price increase cannot be less than one hundred taels!" Bidding is now open! ”

However, after a long time, no one shouted the price, it seems that many people are really not interested in weapons, as Tian Hongyu's expected target Zhang Weixian naturally also saw this gun, although he liked it, but he shook his head and sighed: "Although this gun is good, it is not suitable for me, if it is ornamental, it is meaningless, do you like it?" ”

"Father! This gun kid can't move! Zhang Zhi said bitterly.

Dong Yibo on the other side naturally knew what everyone thought, and naturally he was ready for the unsuccessful auction, so he didn't show anything, just when he wanted to speak, suddenly a voice came out of a side room! "Two thousand six hundred taels!"

This was beyond the expectations of the guests, and it also made Dong Yibo stunned, but it is better for someone to bid than to be cold, so he said with a smile: "A friend bid two thousand six hundred taels!" But still have friends to bid again? Then he paused, hammered the small hammer in his hand and said, "Two thousand six hundred taels once!" Just after shouting, he hammered it again: "Two thousand six hundred two times!" ”

"Three thousand taels!" A voice sounded when Dong Yibo just wanted to shout two thousand six hundred taels for the third time, and the deal was made.

"Good! A friend bid three thousand taels! But do you still have friends who continue to bid? Dong Yibo said with a smile.

The wing room that shouted out was Chongzhen's wing, Chongzhen saw that the deal was about to be closed and asked the guards to shout the price, this order made Tian Hongyu stunned, looked at Chongzhen and said: "Your Majesty!" This......? ”

"Since Brother Lu likes it, I will buy it and give it to Brother Lu!" Chongzhen said with a smile.

"Your Majesty! This......! Lu Xiangsheng looked at Chongzhen and was stunned, and then hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has no merit and no virtue, and he can't receive this gift!" ”

"Do I like to give it to you? As my eldest brother, wouldn't it be a joke if I didn't have a worthy weapon, and I didn't have any face, right? Chongzhen joked.

"Your Majesty! Wechen didn't dare to stand it! Lu Xiangsheng knelt down.

"That's it! Stop talking nonsense! My eldest brother Lu turned out to be such a mother-in-law and mother-in-law! Chongzhen pretended to be angry.

"That's it! Governor Lou! Hurry up and thank you! Tian Hongyu said with a smile.

"We're thanking you, Lord Longen!" Lu Xiangsheng said gratefully.

"Flatten! Don't kneel! Chongzhen said with a smile.

"Three thousand taels for the first time!" "Three thousand taels for the second time!" Dong Yibo's voice continued to echo in the auction hall, Chongzhen was ready to continue to increase the price, but the buyer just now did not continue to bid, "Three thousand taels for the third time!" Deal! Congratulations to this friend for this shot! Dong Yibo smiled and congratulated.

Seeing that his favorite spear belonged to him, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart, and at the same time, he was also moved, you treat me so sincerely, and the ministers will go to the soup for you, and you will never give up! Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but think of the various scenes that were suddenly summoned by Chongzhen until now, and couldn't help but feel a lot, although it was said that accompanying the king was like accompanying the tiger, but Chongzhen did not let him feel like this, there is such an emperor, isn't it the king he is ideally loyal to?

In the wing room on the other side, "Master Hou! Why don't you continue bidding? The butler said.

"Although Ben Hou likes this gun, but it is not necessary to buy it, but it seems to be cold, selling Bandung Commercial Bank to save face and get magic soldiers at the same time, killing two birds with one stone, now since someone is willing to buy it, then Ben Hou is not mixed! Pay more attention to that wing! The man who was called Hou Ye commanded.

"Yes! Master Hou! The butler replied.
