Chapter 492: Auction Banquet
Hongxia asked, "Does the master want to help her?" ”
Shu Tong shook her head, "She chose the road herself, why should I help?" Is that little girl looking for you to ask for your help? ”
Hongxia hurriedly waved her hand, "No?" It doesn't mean that! ”
"Actually, the little girl doesn't know about our relationship at all, the slave is curious to inquire with her, and I heard that Aunt Hu is in charge of all the big and small things in that family!"
"Zhang Dahua's son just landed, and he was hugged, Zhang Dahua wanted to find her desperately, and I don't know what means Aunt Hu used, now that Zhang Dahua is lying in bed every day and sick and half-dead!"
What is being said here is lively, Bao Niangzi came in, and when she heard Zhang Dahua's name, she couldn't help but sink her face.
"Hongxia, what kind of tongue did you chew in front of the master? Those who have nothing to do with it can't defile the ears of their masters! ”
Hongxia was reprimanded, and secretly stuck out her tongue and retreated.
"Bao Niangzi, it seems that you know what happened to Zhang Dahua!" Shutong asked.
Bao Niangzi nodded, "Yes!" At the beginning, she begged again and again, and the slave maid was willing to take her out, but she didn't expect to come to the capital and be blinded by this world of flowers, and turned her head to find someone to marry, such an ungrateful white-eyed wolf, what should she do! ”
Shu Tong smiled, "How are the preparations for the auction?" ”
Bao Niangzi said with a smile: "It's all ready, the slaves and maids discussed it together, and the things in the house are numbered, but it just so happens that Your Majesty has rewarded another batch!" Do you think you will receive it first or auction it together? ”
"Hengxuan is sending something again?"
Bao Niangzi was used to the eldest princess calling Her Majesty by her name in private, and she was smiling.
"Yes, the prince next to His Majesty personally sent it, and he also said that he didn't need the eldest princess to thank him!"
Shutong guessed that it should be Lord Qian who reported the good news, and the treasury recovered a lot of gold and silver, all of which were his own credit!
"Let's go check it out!" Dredging flicked the skirt and shook off a few pieces of melon seed shells.
The rewards in the palace are all good things, and Shutong is only on a large ornament, feeling the faint fluctuation of aura.
With such a small amount of aura, it is not worth absorbing, and he waved his hand: "Mark these as well, and auction them together when the time comes!" ”
"Master, we still have 500,000 taels of silver in the warehouse, which is enough, these ornaments are difficult to buy, are you sure they are going to be auctioned?" Changde housekeeper reminded carefully.
Shu Tong waved his hand and said: "Real money is easy to use, these things are kept and sold to occupy space!" ”
The crowd could only do as she said, busy numbering and arranging.
I heard that the Eldest Princess's Mansion has prepared an auction banquet, how dare the people who received the post not come?
The princess of the mayor of this town has been in the capital for less than a year, and she has caused a lot of things, but Her Majesty has always stood on her side, which can be described as boundless!
I also heard that she led the household servant to collect debts in person, and emptied the debts owed by the treasury for many years!
In the hearts of the wealthy families, they are secretly afraid of the methods of this eldest princess.
What happened in the Liguo Mansion that day was like a wing, flying all over the capital and beyond.
No matter what she wants to sell at this auction banquet, she won't dare not participate in the invitation!
Early in the morning, the carriages were crowded in front of the eldest princess's mansion, and all the heavyweights from various families came.
It is said that the eldest princess is a girl who has not yet left the cabinet, and when she holds a banquet, she should come from various noble ladies and girls.
There is no male host in this eldest princess's mansion, so it is not easy to entertain male guests!
However, the princess of the town is not an ordinary woman, and her behavior is not light in the hearts of everyone.
Most of the people attending the banquet today are the heads of the families, and with what the princess of the town has done, her status in everyone's hearts has risen to the level of being on an equal footing with them!
An auction banquet is no different from a regular banquet!
Just as the temperature was warming, a two-story loft was chosen.
The Eldest Princess's Mansion has a beautiful view, and you can enjoy the scenery from the second floor.
There are men and women, arranged in opposite attics, the women go to the east building, and the men go to the west building.
A high platform is erected in the middle of the two floors, and there are singing and dancing performances.
Banquets are set up in high-rise buildings, and the imperial chefs in the house are very skilled, and the guests enjoy the performances while tasting the food, and the atmosphere is good.
The items participating in the auction are placed in the main hall on the first floor, in a hollow-shaped room, most of the furniture has been emptied, and the screens that separate them have also been removed, turning them into a large space.
The long tables are covered with flannel cloth and are filled with exquisite goodies.
Each of these lots is numbered, with a brief description next to it, as well as a reserve price for the item.
If you want to buy something, you can see it up close!
After the meal, the housekeeper Changde explained the rules of the auction, and each increase in price was one hundred taels.
After the final song and dance, the auction officially begins!
As the master, Shutong didn't mean to go up and say a few words at all.
Changde has already experienced it, stood on the stage with a smile, and declared that the proceeds from today's auction will be donated to the treasury by the mayor and princess of the town, and I hope you will support it!
When the guests heard this, they were in an uproar, what did this eldest princess mean?
Could it be that Hengxuan wanted to make money and was specially instructed, or did the eldest princess herself want to change her tricks to make money?
Whether it was the eldest princess who wanted to make money herself, or the emperor meowed into their pockets, the guests all smiled bitterly in their hearts.
The Eldest Princess's Mansion auctioned nearly 100 ornaments in one go, which was calculated to make them pay for it!
Forget it, you should only break your wealth and avoid disasters, and if you leave your name in front of the emperor because of this, you won't suffer!
The host of the auction is the second master, he is from a poor background but has a clever mouth, and he is very prosperous on Lotus Mountain.
Later, he followed King Qi to the capital, and he gained more knowledge, with the support of the eldest princess, it was not false at all to face all the dignitaries and nobles.
He introduced these items in turn, of course, the things in the eldest princess's mansion were not bad, and most of them were given by Hengxuan!
In addition, the gifts given to the National Teacher by King Qi, King Zhao and others are also rare to find in the world!
The owners of the family who thought they would break the fortune before carefully looked at each lot and found that they were all high-quality products, and they were also moved!
The second master is boasting about it, not to mention how precious it is, just saying that he is a royal gift is enough to make people greedy!
Talking about how expensive things are and how rare they are, everyone has been perfunctory at the beginning to serious bidding at the end, and the price of items has soared.
The second boss also fanned the flames vigorously, and the people who finally made the decision to pay for it all had a happy and painful expression!
The same items were taken away, and everyone's fanny packs were empty!
Among them, some people found that among the items photographed, there were gifts that they had carefully found for the eldest princess's mansion, and they felt a little embarrassed.
Overall, today's auction went fine, and it ended with all the items sold perfectly!
The eldest princess made a big show in the Liguo Mansion and collapsed a main house, and the gossip in the capital never stopped!
It is said that she has learned immortal arts, and her magic power is boundless, some people believe it, and some people don't believe it.
However, the ruins of the Liguo Mansion are still there, and the stone lion with its head cut off at the door is a living proof of this.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, the eldest princess is regarded by everyone as the number one person in the capital who cannot be messed with!
Everyone has brought a lot of silver tickets, and they have to buy one anyway!
If the eldest princess turns her face, maybe she will smash their house, and when the time comes, she will cry in front of His Majesty, and who may not have the face!
