Chapter 2082 Auction Problems
The auction hall is located at the top of the Shanhai Building. There are more than 10 wings and 300 seats inside. Most of them are located on. There are fixed customers who pay for a fixed amount for a long time. That's just a placeholder fee. Hundreds of dollars are easily credited every month. And around those wings. It's even more impossible to get rich. These locations. It is reserved only for the noble princes. Ordinary businessmen don't dare to fight the idea of these wings.
Look at the layout of the auction house. Chen Sheng was very satisfied. I am amazed by Ling Suyun's auction house." Walk. Go to the T-wing." Ling Suyun said to Chen Sheng. In the auction room. The Ling family also has its own reserved place. However, it is only the fourth place in the wing. That's what you know. The Ling family was a merchant in Xianyang. It's very low-key. As the owner of the mountain and sea building. But they don't reserve the place where their identity is most prominent.
"What's the difference between these wings?" Chen Sheng asked curiously.
"It makes no difference." Ling Suyun replied indifferently: "It's just that there is an order in the position. But in this order. For some people. But it's a very important thing. So for these locations. They can pay a big price." Ling Suyun said this. I couldn't help but laugh.
Chen Sheng thought so. Nodding. I asked who the people in these chambers were. As Chen Sheng expected. The name quoted by Ling Suyun. Even Chen Sheng, who is far away in Fujian and Lingnan, is like thunder.
After entering the wing. The servants who were guarding outside hurriedly brought in fresh fruit cakes. Xianyang is very hot in summer. But it was cool inside. Chen Sheng finally found out. One wall of the wing. It turned out to be made of Lantian 'jade'. It's all hollowed out. Filled with ice. For cooling off.' The jade' is covered with crystal droplets. It makes people feel cool when they look at it.
"I'm going to enjoy it." Chen Sheng couldn't help but sigh.
"Of course. If you pay 100 gold here every month. You have that treatment too." Ling Suyun said with a smile. After a few jokes with Chen Sheng. Ling Suyun picked up a scroll. Flipped through it carefully for a moment. The brow frowned slightly. Lift up the Zhu Pen. Several items are marked with circle numbers. said to the steward beside him: "Old Wu. These three things. When was it added to the auction roster. When I was reviewing the roster the other day. I don't think I saw any of these things."
Steward Wu heard a look of displeasure in the young lady's voice, and hurriedly looked down. Discover the list circled by the young lady. His face was a little embarrassed and said, "Miss. It was three days ago. Just arrived in Xianyang Hushang's goods. Because it's a regular customer. That's why I added it......"
"How many times have I said that. We don't buy or sell people." Ling Suyun's voice obviously looked a little angry.
"What's wrong?" Chen Sheng looked at Ling Suyun in surprise. I have known Ling Suyun for several years. It was the first time he had seen Ling Suyun get so angry. Take a closer look. It was found that the goods auctioned above read: "Virgin Orchid Four. Twenty strong Kunlun slaves.' One hundred and fifty slaves......"
Chen Sheng suddenly had a great interest in these people on the list. The state of Qin was originally in the western land. There are a lot of 'dealings' with the Hu people. There are many nobles in Xianyang who like to keep orchids. So the Hu merchants who came and went to the Qin State. Most of them sell Hu people and few 'women' to Xianyang and sell them at a high price. But the so-called "Kunlun slave" Chen Sheng didn't know much about it. in his understanding. The term Kunlun Nu only began to appear in the Tang Dynasty. The race that corresponds to it. It should be a dark 'colored' race in Southeast Asia. Or there are some claims that are black people from Africa.
"This Kunlun slave. What is it?" Chen Sheng asked the steward.
"Auntie. Kunlun slaves were slaves captured by Hu Shang from the far west. Tall.' Sex' Thick and Thick. Pitch black throughout. Because of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". In the far west, there is the Kunlun Sacred Mountain. That's why these slaves were called "Kunlun slaves." When Steward Wu answered Chen Sheng's question. Careful. Ling Suyun is already angry. In case he offends the Ling family's high-ranking future uncle again. Then his days in charge came to an end.
This uncle. Sure enough, Chen Sheng's whole body was comfortable. He smiled and nodded. said to Ling Suyun: "What is auctioned tonight. Did you go out without prior notice?" Chen Sheng was not as disgusted with the slave trade as Ling Suyun. Those Tu people of South Vietnam. Fighters fighting prisoners of war. will be reduced to slaves of pigs and dogs. Even if it's Chen Sheng himself. Something similar has been done. Reward some prisoners of war with your soldiers. As a reward. Although Chen Sheng strictly stipulated that soldiers were not allowed to kill or abuse these prisoners of war. But it can't change the fate of these prisoners of war who were enslaved.
Because of Chen Sheng's limitations. South Vietnamese soldiers captured by Tran Sheng's army. Fate is better. Some of the stronger ones can also be sent to the Southern Warrior Army. Become a part of the Qin army. And the South Vietnamese soldiers who were captured by the army of Ren Huan. Most of them will be sold elsewhere. Become a treasure in the pockets of these officers.
"It's been announced." Steward Wu replied tremblingly.
Ling Suyun's face is even more gloomy. Chen Sheng looked at the poor steward Wu. said, "You go out first. Later this kind of thing. Don't do it again."
"Yes. Yes." Steward Wu glanced at Chen Sheng with a feeling of 'excitement'. Chen Sheng's words. It undoubtedly saved Steward Wu's future future. Chen Sheng held Ling Suyun's hand. Laughing: "Don't be angry. It's normal for the people below to want to earn some extra income once in a while. That's it. Even if you get angry, it's useless. Or find a way. How to solve this problem."
Ling Suyun said with a 'color' on her face: "Everything that is listed for auction. It can't be taken down. This will break the credibility of our Ling family. Recently, there are also several merchants in Xianyang. Trying to imitate our Shanhailou. It's just that we don't have such a reputation and customer source as Shanhailou. If we can't handle this well. Then these opponents can take the opportunity to pull away many of our customers."
Chen Sheng smiled. said: "Not bad. And they're certainly not like you. There are restrictions in the selection of goods. It is bound to cater to the minds of the guests. In the long run. The signboard of Shanhailou will inevitably not be guaranteed."
"So how do we deal with it?" Ling Suyun frowned slightly.
Chen Sheng shook his head. said, "Don't you know better than I do. You just don't want to make that choice."
Ling Suyun smiled bitterly. In fact, the response is really simple. Just give up a few restrictions. But from the bottom of the heart. Ling Suyun has some money that she doesn't want to earn. But this is often the case with transactions. Give up some of the unwanted. What you want is gone.
