"Second brother, everyone wants this crystal, what are you going to do to sell it?"

"Yes, four thousand pieces, I want them all, we can't divide them equally, right?" Questions were raised.

"If that's the case, my Taiyuan royal family is willing to pay 5,000 pieces and buy 40 pieces!"

"My Runzhou Su family is willing to bid 6,000 pieces and buy 50 pieces!"

"I, the Kangguo Business Group, am willing to bid 7,000 pieces and buy 60 pieces!"

"I, the Silla Mission, am also willing to bid 7,000 pieces for 30 pieces, if the king of Lanling is willing to pay off the debt with the goods......"

"Everyone, don't be impatient." Xiao Quzhi's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and said with a smile on his face: "Since you all want it, and you are all so rich, wouldn't it hurt the harmony to be noisy?" In order to avoid everyone from scrambling, there is a way to get sick, these 500 crystals, let's auction them! ”

"Auction, what kind of auction method?" Everyone was puzzled, King Lanling always had something fresh to come out.

"There are generally two kinds of auctions, one of which is a bidding auction, such as this crystal eagle, the reserve price is 4,000 yuan, shouting at least 100 yuan at a time, whoever pays the highest price will belong to whom;

The second is a price reduction auction, for example, when I went to the sick before, I heard that someone was willing to pay 7,000 yuan to buy 60 pieces, then we will price each piece of crystal at 7,000 yuan, and the auctioneer will shout the price, and the price will be reduced by 300 yuan each time.

For example, shouting 7,000 guan, no one asked for the price, and then continued to shout, 6,700 guan, still no one asked for the price, until 5,500 guan, the Su family in Runzhou asked for the price, and this crystal eagle was sold to the Su family at a price of 5,500 guan.

If no one asks for it until 4,000 times, we will sell it ourselves. Everyone understands, we will use the method of price reduction auction this time. ”

Everyone nodded. This auction method is also new. Xiao Hua asked, "If it's seven thousand, there will be many people bidding." And how? ”

Zheng Yixi, the representative of the Zheng family in Xingyang, protested: "There is one more problem. We are from the Tang family, how can the Datang merchants bid with these Hu merchants from the Western Regions and the envoys of various countries on the same field and treat them equally! ”

The representative of the Boling Cui family also protested loudly: "How can we and the other five surnames and seven wangs be treated the same as these Hu merchants in the Western Regions and the missions of various countries? I protest! ”

"My Pei family in Hedong also protested ......"

Dozens of Hu merchants from the Western Regions and the missions of various countries were anxious and angry at this time, but none of them dared to protest. Although they are very rich, they must rely on local forces to survive.

Otherwise, no one will cover them, and they, the Hu people who don't have a Tang household registration, even if they are killed by the Tang people on the street, the other party will only be fined, otherwise they will hurt the Tang people and may be beheaded.

These powerful families with five surnames and seven hopes are the relatives of the local forces or local forces to which they are attached. Now that the master has spoken, they can only look at it with no matter how much hatred and anger they have in their hearts.

As for the missions of various countries. Even more without status, they also came to Datang to do business. In order to obtain permission and convenience, I also have to give gifts to these powerful people and families, and naturally I don't even dare to let go of a fart at this time.

Xiao Quzhi smiled and asked, "Is everyone thinking so?" Does anyone have an opinion? ”

"That's what I thought!"

"How can the Hu merchants of the Western Regions and the missions of various countries be treated the same as us?"

"I'll have no problem waiting!"

Xiao Quzhi looked at those Hu merchants and envoys from various countries in the Western Regions who gritted their teeth tightly one by one, looked ashamed but did not dare to say a word, and felt indescribable happiness in his heart, this is the mentality of a big country, this is the treatment of the people of a big country!

"Since there are no opinions, then we will do it according to this charter, this auction of crystals, priority will be given to us Datang people, if there is any left, it will be the turn of Hu Shang and the missions of various countries in the Western Regions. As for what Brother Xiao said......"

"Wait a minute......"

Xiao Qubing was about to say something, a Zhaowu Nine Kingdoms Hu Shang stood up, Xiao Qubing looked at him suspiciously, and said kindly: "What's the matter?" How, do you have an opinion? ”

"No, no...... The little slave didn't dare to have an opinion! The purple-haired and blue-eyed Sogdian Hu of the Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu trembled a little nervously: "That's the case, Lan ...... King Lanling, when the little slave heard the big dog thief slaughtering the river last year, he joined the Tang household registration, the little slave has the Tang household, the little slave wants to ask, can the little slave participate in the auction? ”

"It's nature." Xiao Quzhi smiled and said: "Of course it's no problem, you are a Tang businessman now, don't always talk about small slaves and small slaves, be confident and proud, this is in line with our Tang temperament." ”

The man sat back happily, Xiao Quzhi looked around at these Hu merchants from the Western Regions with different hair colors, and said with a smile; "Is there anyone else and the ...... just now This brother, who is from the river? What's your name? ”

The Hu man hurriedly stood up again and said respectfully: "Go back to the king of Lanling, little ...... Below is a native of Anguo in the river, whose name is An Bodhisattva. ”

"Okay, is there anyone who has joined the Datang household registration like this An Bodhisattva brother? You can all participate in the auction, in order to avoid admitting mistakes, you go and sit with the Tang merchants. ”

Three more people stood up, with excitement and joy on their faces, and the other Hu merchants in the Western Regions with envy and jealousy on their faces, all secretly swore that they would go to Chang'an County Ya when they went back and apply to join the Datang household registration.

Previously, because the Tang Dynasty did not allow the Tang people to engage in international trade, they could monopolize the Silk Road by the Sogdian Hu merchants of the Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu, so in order to pursue profits, they were reluctant to join the Tang household registration.

Now it is different, with the emergence of the Four Seas Trading Company, their monopoly position on the Silk Road no longer exists, and they cannot compete with the Four Seas Trading Company.

Therefore, it is better to join the Datang household registration and follow the king of Lanling and Suo Shiyang to make a fortune.

"Back to the previous question, Brother Xiao Shi asked if there were many people bidding for 7,000 yuan, what should I do?" After a small episode, Xiao Quzhi continued: "We don't have to divide it too carefully, whether it is the five surnames and seven wangs, the four surnames in Guanzhong, or the Jiangnan Chinese, or other eunuchs, all of them stipulate that a maximum of 20 pieces will be photographed by one family, and a maximum of 15 pieces will be photographed by other wealthy businessmen of the Tang Dynasty.

In this way, basically every family can have a share, and you don't have to fight for me. Suppose this is the case, then draw lots. ”

After a pause, Xiao Quzhi smiled and said: "Tell everyone in advance, you don't have to fight too much for the crystal, because there is a bigger business in the future, and the Four Seas Trading Company can do it by itself, but after thinking about it, I still decided to make money for everyone and let you participate in the shares." ”

The enthusiasm of everyone was mentioned at once, this King of Lanling is really a great god of wealth!

The agent sales of the first few sought-after commodities gave them millions, tens of millions of wealth profits. Now that the crystal auction is taking care of them so much, this has made them ecstatic, they didn't expect that there would be good things, and they would also take them rich!

Thinking of this, many powerful families are a little embarrassed. Listening to the meaning of the king of Lanling, he was going to give the profits to everyone at the beginning, but at that time, the four seas trading company had just been created, and many products were in the research and development stage, and the king of Lanling braved the wind and snow to fight for the country, so before he could do it, the king of Lanling banned gold and silver coins and private money.

But at that time, he was only staring at that little profit, and he actually attacked him in groups, it is rare that King Lanling is willing to give me such a profit, which is really ashamed.

For people like them, who are old and sophisticated, they naturally don't think that Xiao Qubing is currying favor with them, with everyone's understanding of Xiao Quai, he is not such a person, and it is completely unnecessary, let alone repaying grievances with virtue. The only understanding is that Xiao Quzhi didn't take these things seriously at all, and the feeling of being despised like this was a little uncomfortable, but it also showed that Xiao Quzhi was a person who really did great things.

With such a mind and such a skill, and now that he is so favored, many people have made a decision at this moment, as long as Xiao Qu does not fall ill, he will follow him to make a fortune!

Hu Shang in the Western Regions, who is not far from them, is also envious and anxious at this time, they are the best at speculation, but Xiao is sick and gives priority to the people of the Tang Dynasty, and this opportunity to make a fortune does not know if it is their turn to get them. The missions of various countries are also envious, only Abe Harumi is secretly happy.

"King Lanling, what kind of money-making business is it?" Someone asked impatiently.

"Don't worry, let's shoot the crystal first." (To be continued.) )
