45. Bidding
"Huh?" Asakusa was surprised, "It's all things used by monks, what did you buy them for?" ”
Meng Qingyun smiled and said, "It's fun, have fun." ”
Asakusa: "I'm afraid that the things in the back are more expensive." ”
Meng Qingyun asked rhetorically: "Am I short of money?" ”
Asakusa: "......"
Zijing was excited and shouted, "I'll come, I'll come, I'll bargain!" ”
Meng Qingyun nodded: "Okay, it's up to you." ”
Bauhinia immediately stood at the window, her eyes wide open, and waited for the fourth item to come out.
The fourth item is really more valuable, it is a Hetian white jade reclining Buddha talisman, that is, commonly known as mutton fat white jade, the quality is excellent, the carving is fine, it is the abbot of mercy in front of the Buddha to worship, the starting price is thirty-two taels.
Meng Qingyun couldn't help but complain: "These monks are really good at business!" ”
In today's market, a jade plate of the same weight on the market, according to the different jade materials and workmanship, most of them are around 20 taels.
Ma San looked amused next to him, and couldn't help but say: "The monks of Little Qiyun Temple are indeed some business savvy, and there are more incense and candles sold nearby than other temples. ”
Meng Qingyun secretly thought, maybe what was worshiped in front of the Buddha was also a coaxing nonsense.
Sure enough, there are still a lot of smart people like her, and there are many fewer people bidding at the bottom in an instant. That Wu shopkeeper will describe how warm the texture of this jade plaque, how delicate the carving, and the abbot of mercy and grace in front of the Buddha for 7749 days, chanting constantly, if you can please go home, you can ensure the safety of the house, wealth and prosperity, it is really worthy of the treasurer of Delong quality library.
There are many rich businessmen in Huizhou and Zhejiang, and there is indeed no shortage of rich people, under his strong instigation, there are still people asking for prices, and the prices are rising, and they are called forty-eight taels in a short time.
Shopkeeper Wu sang: "Six tables of distinguished guests, forty-eight taels, is there any price increase?" ”
After shouting twice, he picked up the wooden hammer.
Meng Qingyun raised his chin at Bauhinia.
Bauhinia couldn't wait for a long time, shouting: "Sixty taels!" "I was so excited that I almost broke my voice.
This crisp and loud young girl's voice raised the price a lot at once, and immediately attracted the attention of the people in the building.
Shopkeeper Wu sang excitedly: "VIP in the private room of Mei Zi, ask for sixty taels!" ”
He called twice in a row whether there was a price increase, but no one agreed, as if he was frightened by this sudden increase in price, and finally the shopkeeper Wu rang the gong heavily.
Sixty taels, this reclining Buddha jade plaque, was pocketed by the plum word private room.
Naturally, the people downstairs were talking.
But Meng Qingyun was a little dissatisfied, no one raised the price, it was too easy to win, and she couldn't achieve her goal.
She thought about it, beckoned to Bauhinia, and whispered a few words.
Zijing suddenly had an expression on his face that he was not too busy to see the excitement, and stood at the window and shouted at the full guests below: "My girl said, there is no rich person in Manchun Ancheng?" It is said that Chun'an is a wealthy businessman, and he doesn't want to be able to even take out sixty taels of silver? ”
"Hey! Where did the little girl's skin come from, she dared to make a big statement! ”
"Good dog guts! Deceive me, no one! ”
"We Chun'an people, will we be afraid of money?"
The map cannon really pulled the hatred of the audience, and now many people are gearing up, ready to bid on the next lot.
Shopkeeper Wu was naturally anxious, and hurriedly asked the monks to take out the fifth item. The two monks first carried out a low Go table, and a little insight recognized it as Huanghuali at a glance; Then he carefully took out two porcelain jars, which were naturally black and white chess pieces.
"Look, this Go table is made of high-grade Huanghuali, and the relief carvings on all sides are from the hands of Dongyang wood carvers. Looking at these two cans of chess pieces again, "Wu's shopkeeper picked up two chess pieces, one black and one white, respectively, in his left and right hands, "The black chess pieces are made by Hetian Moyu, and the white chess pieces are made of Lantian Baiyu." The value of this chess table and chess pieces alone is already very precious. The most rare thing is the origin of this set of Go. ”
"The distinguished guests here are all well-informed, and they must all know that among the princes of the clan of this dynasty, King Qi is the only one who has not left Beijing to become a vassal. This set of Go came from the Bianjing Qi Palace. More than ten years ago, the abbot of Ci'en traveled four ways, and had placed an order in Xiangguo Temple in Bianjing, he was good at Go, and the king of Xianqi, who liked chess, had the same interests. The two once made a bet against each other, and King Qi lost half of the game, so he gave this pair of Go tables and Go pieces as a bet to the abbot of Ci'en. ”
Therefore, this set of Go is not only a valuable material and an extraordinary origin, but also witnesses this elegant and interesting incident between the abbot of mercy and the king of Xianqi. This is also the last singing item of the day, with a starting price of 100 taels! ”
Suddenly!
The starting price is one hundred taels - everyone here, although they just tried to teach the little girl in the plum room a lesson, many people were still frightened away by this price.
Fortunately, not everyone is cowardly.
Wang Yuanwai, who had taken away the inkstone before, boldly asked for the price: "One hundred and twenty taels!" ”
"It deserves to be a king!" Everyone applauded.
Someone took the lead, which aroused the pride of the Chun'an people, and another bidder: "One hundred and fifty taels!" ”
In the private room on the second floor, Bauhinia looked at Meng Qingyun.
Meng Qingyun held a teacup in his hand, lowered his eyelids, and said slowly: "You just call, there is no cap." ”
Bauhinia suddenly rose in courage, and the exit was: "Two hundred taels!" ”
Sure enough, it aroused another round of amazement.
It's really not good, am I from Chun'an, really going to be underestimated by a foreign woman?
Never!
"Two hundred and twenty taels!"
"Two hundred and fifty taels!"
"Three hundred taels!"
"Three hundred and fifty taels!"
"Four hundred taels!"
Zijing got the Shang Fang Sword, so it doesn't matter how much you shout, just add it without thinking.
In this fierce competition, the one who followed the shouting retreated first, leaving only Wang Yuan alone.
Someone pleaded: "Outside the king, we can't lose, if you also retreat, our entire Chun'an City will be treated as a joke." ”
It's not your money that dares to spend it!
Wang Yuanwai is also difficult to ride a tiger, and his head is slightly sweaty, but this face is thrown out, so he can't let it fall to the ground. He could only shout hard.
"Five hundred taels!"
He raised the price by a hundred taels at once, thinking that he could scare the other party.
Bauhinia is bold, anyway, she has her own girl's endorsement, so she opened her mouth and shouted: "Eight hundred taels!" ”
Everyone looked at Wang Yuanwai with their eyes, but Wang Yuanwai didn't want to say anything, lowered his head and began to drink tea, as if this was a rare and good tea, so mellow that people were reluctant to let go.
"Alas......"
Everyone sighed.
Some people shook their heads and regretted that they were not as wealthy as people.
Some people couldn't bear this breath and left the table angrily.
Bauhinia was condescending, proudly glancing at the "defeated subordinates" all over the building.
At this time, a capable young man suddenly appeared in the window of the bamboo private room, which was particularly conspicuous in this depressed atmosphere, and everyone couldn't help but look at him.
This young man's facial features are ordinary, and there is nothing special about it, except that his brain is extraordinarily large and impressive.
He scanned the audience with a calm face, opened his mouth and said, "One thousand taels." ”
