202 Cai Jing was stingy and worried about money

As mentioned last time, Liang Wenzhen took Bai Hua and the two out to play, and met Song Siyuan, a young man who was worried about the country and the people, and had a grand discussion of the law of rise and fall, which attracted Song Siyuan to worship and ask for ways to counter the northern barbarians, Liang Wenzhen suggested that gunpowder should be used to deal with the war horses and brave soldiers of the nomads with advanced weapons. Under the leadership of Tangchi, a group of craftsmen in Yanggu finally transported several truckloads of glass products safely, fulfilling their mission. Liang Wenzhen immediately convened a meeting, arranged the accommodation, and work of the group, and planned the Tokyo auction to be held on the day after tomorrow. Thinking that the auction was about to take place, I had to talk to Pan Shilang and listen to his opinion, after all, Pan Shilang was familiar with Tokyo.

Pan Shilang saw his best friend Liang Wenzhen visiting, and hurriedly welcomed him to the hall to watch tea. Liang Wenzhen saw that there was a young junior on the seat, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth, making a salute. The latter returned the gift and poured Liang Wenzhen a cup of hot tea. Pan Shilang introduced that this descendant is his fellow villager, named Dong Shen, is a painter, and is going to refer to the Hanlin Academy of Painting and Calligraphy early next year, so he temporarily lives in Pan's mansion.

Under the chat, Liang Wenzhen learned that Emperor Daojun loved the art of calligraphy and painting, and soon after ascending the throne, he established the Hanlin Academy of Painting and Calligraphy, collected painting talents from all over the world, exchanged and cultivated, and pushed the art of calligraphy and painting of the era to an unprecedented height. The entrance examination of the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting was presided over by Emperor Daojun himself, which shows the importance he attaches to this cause. This Daojun Emperor is really ridiculous in governing the country, but he is really an artistic genius. It is a pity that creation makes people, and if a person does not get to his rightful place, he becomes a scourge. Liang Wenzhen pondered.

After some small talk, Pan Shilang asked: "Brother Liang is full of money, business is busy, and he hasn't been here for a long time, how can he be idle today, but he went to Pan's humble house to meet?" "Hehe, in the future, I should often come to Lord Pan Shilang, and bother me more, so as not to be gossiped about by Brother Pan." Liang Wenzhen said with a smile, "But I came to find Brother Pan today, I do have something, because my Huaxia Company will hold a glass auction in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, and I must listen to Brother Pan's opinion." ”

"Brother Liang has something to ask for, and Pan will definitely do his best to help," Pan Shilang smiled and said, "It's just that what is an auction?" What can I help, and ask Brother Liang to speak clearly. "The so-called auction is to find a place, openly invite guests to come, start on time, and bid on the goods on the spot. The reserve price of a piece of goods is quoted, and the interested buyer bids, and the highest price wins. Generally, it has been called three times, and if no one raises the price, the person who presides over the auction will drop the hammer and make the sale. Liang Wenzhen said 1510.

"I see. This kind of trading method is not new, but it is also rare. But why do buyers have to bid for purchases, it seems that the goods must be rare in order to attract buyers. Brother Liang, yes or no? Pan Shilang said. Brother Pan is worthy of being the first-class jinshi in the palace examination that year, and he can get through the joints in high school. Admire, admire! Liang Wenzhen was impressed.

"Heroes don't mention the courage of the year." Pan Shilang smiled, and his heart was complacent. When he was in the prime of his thirties, many people had beards. "Liang founded Huaxia Industrial Co., Ltd., and invested heavily in all aspects. Because there is a batch of glass products, which have just arrived from Yanggu, they must be auctioned to alleviate the company's treasury and silver tension. Brother Pan should know that Liang has just arrived in Tokyo, and the time is still short, and the door is unfamiliar. Although Tokyo is prosperous, those who can afford to buy exquisite glass products should be wealthy families, dignitaries and wealthy families, how to attract them to go, Brother Pan must guide them. Liang Wenzhen asked the question.

When Pan Shilang heard this, he smiled faintly and shook his head. Liang Wenzhen's heart tightened, and said, "Brother Pan shook his head, isn't the auction not working?" "That's not it," Pan Shilang sighed and said, "I will help you naturally." "That ・・・・・・" Liang Wenzhen was confused, not knowing what Pan Shilang meant.

"Hehe, since you are bidding, if you want to sell at a high price, you must attract dignitaries and dignitaries, and the rich and wealthy, but which of them is richer than the royal family?" Pan Shilang smiled and continued: "If you can encourage a few eunuchs, they will move the palace concubines, the royal family will lead the trend, they send people to bid, are you afraid that the rich and wealthy will not come to them?" ”

"Clever, clever!" Liang Wenzhen gave a thumbs up and was amazed, "Brother Pan's method can really be described as killing two birds with one stone." One is to push up the price, and the other is to increase the effect of marketing strategies. Brother Pan must not forget that the filming will start the day after tomorrow, and he must leak some news to the eunuchs in the palace as soon as possible. "This Pan is naturally saved, how can I stand by and watch Brother Liang's big things."

"By the way, in Zhen'an Fang that day, Master Li seemed to have a lot of affection for Brother Liang, did she send you an invitation to attend her birthday banquet tonight?" Pan Shilang asked. "I received it yesterday, but unfortunately Liang doesn't like such an occasion and doesn't plan to go to the banquet." Liang Wenzhen replied.

"Brother Liang's words are wrong. That Master Li's name moves Jingshi, and her birthday banquet must be full of officials and wealthy people, so why not take this opportunity to promote your company's auction event, the most convenient. "Pan Shilang is experienced and shrewd." I didn't think of it, okay, I must go. By the way, last time I promised to give her a rare item, there happened to be a glass ornament, which happened to be used. Liang Wenzhen was overjoyed when he heard it, if he had the help of Pan Shilang, why worry about his career, but unfortunately he had achieved the military department in the officialdom, where would he follow him.

"I saw that your Huaxia Company's Keju team is on the list of trials, it seems that Brother Liang is not only both civil and military, but also loves Keju." Pan Shilang said. "Brother Liang is omnipotent, the Keju movement not only strengthens the body, but also implies the way of strategy and tactics." Dong Shen also said with interest.

"Haha," Pan Shilang said with a smile, "If you talk about talent, this Liang brother is really talented." solved a difficult murder case in Yuncheng, Shandong, and solved a mystery in Dongming. When he came to Tokyo, he fascinated the world's first prostitute Li Shishi with words. Presumably, even if he has not made much achievements in painting, he should have a lot of opinions, and Dong Geer might as well ask him for advice. ”

When Dong Shen heard this, he immediately came to his senses and asked Liang Wenzhen for painting advice. Liang Wenzhen has no interest in the way of painting, knows very little, and cannot teach others the mechanical drawing he has learned in the past. Because he started from the theory of ink painting, when talking about the overseas painting method of his hometown, he simply used the perspective method of Western oil painting, which was compared with the Chinese Central Plains painting. Seeing that the two of them didn't understand clearly, they showed it, and Pan Dong and the others shouted wonderfully and were full of interest. It must be known that Pan Shilang was originally a literati, and he also had general attainments in literati painting.

The words are divided into two ends. Cai Jing's henchmen returned, Pan Jinlian, who was a slave forever, had a red rash on her face, a bit like lupus erythematosus, and it would also infect others, which was really scary, and it was rumored that a woman in the Jiaole Workshop had been recruited. This henchman is just a famous man, and he is able to do things, so he is more trusted than others. "Oh, this Lin Feng, the news has a beginning and no end, but fortunately, this Taishi is fine." Cai Jing muttered under his breath.

After the family returned, he said: "Xiangye, the little one asked the steward of the music shop to drink in the Xinghua Village Restaurant in the east of the city, and inquired about the slave woman." A total of seventeen taels of silver were spent, and the troublesome master was reimbursed. "What, the dragon meat you eat or the swan meat, so much?!" Cai Jing was dissatisfied.

"Xiangye, prices are rising, the Khitans are engaged in quantitative easing again, and the silver is depreciating, there is no way." Jia Ding looked helpless. "Butler, take this guy to the account room for reimbursement of seventeen taels." Cai Jing said bitterly, "It's silver, not gold, don't make a mistake." ”

In modern times, some people have easy money, and it doesn't matter if you buy a tattered leather bag for tens of thousands of dollars; People who have made a fortune from scratch are lonely and stingy, and they can't wait for one dollar to be two flowers. Cai Jing's silver came easily, but he was not ordinarily stingy and stingy, which was an exception.

In the evening, Liang Wenzhen took Bai Yujiao, Hua Sumei, and Cai Yan to check in the room where the glass products were stored. Liang Wenzhen said with a smile: "Pick a gift to attend the birthday banquet, you can't go empty-handed, right?" ”

"Master Li's birthday banquet, I'll go too?" Hua Sumei was a little surprised. "I went to the banquet alone, and there was no pomp, no matter how I said that our Huaxia Company was a big enterprise." Liang Wenzhen said.

Bai Yujiao was very happy, and said: "Great, I want to see what kind of three heads and six arms that Master Li has, and all the men in the world are fascinated." Between the words, the vinegar was strong.

Liang Wenzhen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he picked up a glass ornament, which was shaped like a rooster with his neck up and crowing. "How's this?" The ornament is transparent and exquisite, it is a first-class handicraft, and the rooster is the same as the real size, the shape is tall and exquisite, vivid, and it can be described as lifelike.

"It's so beautiful, it can sell a lot of silver at the auction, it's too expensive to give this." Hua Sumei touched the rooster and said. "More will be made in the future, it doesn't matter." Liang Wenzhen said generously. Liang Wenzhen, who was originally born at the grassroots, was naturally reluctant to give expensive gifts if he really participated in other people's birthday parties. But because it comes from the future, the glass of the original era is commonplace, so it is not distressing.

The four of them got in a luxury carriage and ran all the way to Zhen'anfang. When I got off at the gate, I saw that the lights around Zhen'an Fang were colorful, bright and bright as day, and the little guy who greeted the guests was like honey in his mouth, greeting the endless stream of guests.

Liang Wenzhen was hugged by Bai Yujiao and Hua Sumei, and Cai Yan was behind. The little guy who greeted the guests said: "Big official, please come here!" "I took the invitation card handed over by Liang Wenzhen, read it carefully, and then took Cai Yan handed over the glass products in a wooden box." Shandong Yanggu Liang Wenzhen Liang Daguan, a crystal rooster. The greeter shouted. Immediately a maid came and took the gift. "It's a glass rooster." Bai Yujiao corrected. The greeter didn't understand and didn't pay attention.

The four of them entered the lobby, but they saw that the guests were gathered, either rich or expensive, although they did not recognize each other, but their bearings were extraordinary. swept away at a glance, and saw that Tong Guan, Lin Feng, and He Li, the champion of the new department, were also present, and they were calling friends and making greetings. Pan Shilang came earlier, Liang Wenzhen saw it and walked over. Pan Shilang saw Liang Wenzhen coming from a distance, and hurriedly got up to meet him and pulled Liang Wenzhen to the same table.

The birthday banquet of Master Li, the first prostitute in the world, dignitaries, rich families and wealthy families gathered together, and interesting things will happen. Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
