Chapter 99: Take off
"Eight hundred and fifty thousand taels!" Qian Jiwen's face was dark, and he quoted his bid to Lin Yiye on the rostrum! Then he frowned and looked at the Zhejiang businessman who was sitting at the end of the row!
In the morning, when he saw the four businessmen who were expelled by Xiao Mo yesterday, Qian Jiwen felt that something was wrong, of course, it was not that Qian Jiwen was suspicious of these four Zhejiang businessmen, but that he was suspicious of Xiao Mo. 【&n】
The reason is very simple, without Xiao Mo's permission, how can these businessmen enter the auction site?
In particular, these four businessmen have been silent, as if they can't look down on these iron mines, and as soon as the four big iron mines come out, they will start to bite and hold on!
First of all, Su Quan's No. 4 mine was carried to 950,000 taels by Zhejiang businessmen! Then there was Huang Hao's No. 3 mine, which actually broke through the million taels mark, and was not taken by Su Quan until one hundred and fifty thousand taels! And Qian and Wen himself, this No. 2 mine has also broken through the 800,000 taels mark, but looking at the appearance of the Zhejiang businessman, it seems that he still refuses to give up!
Of course I won't give up, didn't Xiao Mo say it? If you can eat it, then the iron ore is yours! Of course, the premise must be that they have enough capital, which does not need to be explained by Xiao Mo, the businessmen are very shrewd, and it is impossible to raise the price to an outrageous level in order to get iron ore, in that case, even if they win in the end, they are only afraid of losing, or themselves!
"Nine hundred thousand taels!" Sure enough, he didn't pay and as expected, the Zhejiang businessman who was sitting at the end reported a number with an expressionless face!
Now it's not just Qian and Wen, even Su Quan and Huang Hao, including Pu Wen and others, all noticed that something was wrong, Su Quan smiled, and while people were not paying attention, he reminded Qian and Wen softly. "Brother Qian, I'm just afraid of fraud!"
Qian Jiwen nodded, he had already seen it, and after nodding to Su Quan, he said loudly with the same face: "One million and one million!" ”
One million and one million! Everyone was amazed, this is the highest price today, including yesterday!
is worthy of being a member of the Qian family, and he really has courage!
Qian Jiwen's face was as usual, but his heart was aching! Who will give up more of this white silver, not to mention hundreds of thousands of taels! But there was no way, for the sake of iron ore, the money and the smell were also released, and they directly quoted the highest price they could accept, wanting to see the reaction of the Zhejiang businessmen.
Hum! If you increase the price again, the big deal will be given to you in the iron ore, see if you can eat it or not! Qian Jiwen thought secretly in his heart.
For the rest of the day, the auction was so quiet that even the breath of the crowd could be heard!
After a long time, Lin Yiye said with a smile: "Since no one has raised the price, then this No. 2 mine is Boss Qian's......"
"Wait!" After Lin Yiye finished speaking, Qian Jiwen immediately stood up. "Lin Sihu, my old money doesn't like my mother-in-law's, this mine, I will pay 1.2 million, if there is a higher price than this, just come!"
Qian Ji was angry when he heard this, the style of the Qian family in Hangzhou was really not covered, and in one sentence, everyone was calmed!
Even Lin Yiye was stunned there.
Are you kidding? One and two million?
"Papapa......" applause rang out, Xiao Mo applauded while slowly coming to Qian Jiwen. Boss Qian is worthy of the surname Qian, and his shot is really extraordinary! Since Boss Qian is so sincere, then of course this No. 1 mine is the former boss! ”
Xiao Mo spoke, his iron mouth was straight, what else did he have to say?
Pu Wen and the others sighed, but this time, the harvest of the Zhejiang businessmen was not small, and they won twenty iron mines, large and small, which was more than half of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce!
However, thinking of the four big iron mines, Pu Wen felt a pity in his heart!
"Alright, that's the end of the auction!" Xiao Mo put away the auction papers, and after verifying the signatures of the merchants above, he announced loudly.
"Your Excellency!" Qian Jiwen stopped Xiao Mo and asked, "Aren't there still four iron mines?" ”
"Those four iron mines, this official plans to sell them to four Zhejiang merchants at a price!" Xiao Mo's face changed, he looked at Qian Jiwen and asked, "What?" Boss Qian has an opinion? ”
Without waiting for Qian to answer, Xiao Mo said again: "The official said that he will not let you go home empty-handed, do you want to force the official to break his word?" ”
Seeing Xiao Mo's face change, Qian Jiwen had no choice but to retreat sullenly, but he was wondering in his heart, when did he say that he would not let us go home empty-handed? Could it be that I've been forgetful lately and don't remember?
After coming back to his senses, Qian Jiwen looked around, but Xiao Mo's figure was gone, only Lin Yiye smiled and said to everyone: "Everyone, please go to the county office to pay the money before sunset the day after tomorrow, oh...... Just now, Lord Xiao told me that your food can be offset in the money, but at this price, Lord Xiao doesn't embarrass everyone, so according to what everyone said, two taels and one stone, no opinion, right? ”
The opinion is no opinion, but the people present, whether it is Pu Wen, these Zhejiang businessmen, or Qian Jiwen, the three representatives of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce, are scolding Xiao Mo in their hearts.
A lot of money has been knocked away by you, and now this little bit of food, what can you do if you have one or two more or one less taels?
If Xiao Mo heard the voices of these businessmen, he would definitely regret his decision!
With Xiao Mo's character, it's strange if you don't push the price of food to death!
After the auction ended, Xiao Mo took the paperwork and went to Li Ji!
"Seven million four thousand taels?" Li Ji rubbed his eyes, as if he was not sure.
"Yes, sir." Xiao Mo said: "This money is the price at which thirty-three iron mines are sold, of course, what can actually be reported to the treasury is estimated to be seven million taels, after all, ...... It takes money to build windmills and resettle the victims......"
"Hehe......" Li Ji laughed: "Enough, Ziheng!" Enough is enough......"
Oh, yes! What is the concept of handing over seven million taels of silver in a year?
Thinking of these seven million taels of silver, Li Ji was excited in his heart, as far as Li Ji knew, the current An Dynasty, the annual income is only 30 million taels of silver, which is still the annual income of the national treasury for a year! But his own Shen County has called 7 million silver a year, what kind of political achievement is this? Thinking about the scene when this number surprised the ministers and the emperor was happy in the Jinluan Palace, Li Ji felt excited......
No way! I'm going to write a recital now! Li Ji's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he got up and sat down in front of the bookcase.
"Your Excellency!" Xiao Mo said to Li Ji: "Don't worry, adult, there is one more thing to report to your adult!" ”
"Anything else?" Seeing Xiao Mo's smile, Li Ji knew that this must be a good thing, so he came to the spirit and asked, "Please say it quickly!" ”
Unconsciously, Li Ji actually used the word 'please' in front of Xiao Mo!
Xiao Mo nodded and said, "When the adults went out before, Xiao Mo took it upon himself to hand over all the dolomite in the county to the county chamber of commerce for mining and operation......"
"Oh?" Li Ji laughed, and there was silver coming in? Then he asked, "How much silver is this time?" ”
Affection Li Ji now has only silver in his heart......
Xiao Mo shook his head and said, "Lord Hui, this time I don't take a penny......
After telling Li Ji the plan he had discussed with the squires, Xiao Mo said: "The government accounts for one percent, and this year, to say the least, there must be hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, plus the taxes brought by lime and iron ore, this year, Shen County can at least have millions of taels of silver......
"Millions of ...... a year" Li Ji was already numb, looking at Xiao Mo, he didn't know what to say!
Don't talk about it? Xiao Mo looked at Li Ji funny, and you are not here, because of iron ore and lime, there will be more and more craftsmen and businessmen in Shenxian County in the future to find jobs and talk about business, these are the economic benefits brought by lime and iron ore!
I have to say that the current Shen County, under Xiao Mo's management, has quietly taken off!
