Chapter 133: Earn More Than Money
"Smack"
As the small wooden mallet smashed on the auction table, there was a crisp sound, and the "Horse Stepping on Feiyan" was finally auctioned by Liang Guogong for 170,000 taels of silver plus a mansion in the inner city.
The eldest princess clenched her silver teeth, although she was good at collecting money, but compared to Liang Guogong's accumulation of generations, it was still very inferior, and in the end, if Liang Guogong vomited blood, she would have to be buried with her.
Remembering that this was only the first treasure, the eldest princess finally calmed down at the last moment.
She comforted herself, anyway, no matter how rich her family background is, she can only buy one treasure per person at most today, and even if there are any good things for a while, Liang Guogong can only be in a hurry.
An Ge collected the silver ticket, and ordered the two subordinates to follow the servants of the Guogong Mansion back to get the house deed, and then nodded to Xu Rui.
Xu Rui had a rich smile on his face, the first lot was 50% higher than his estimate, and if it went on like this, maybe he would be able to recoup all the costs tonight.
"The dust has settled on the first lot, and Liang Guogong can move his things at any time after paying the final payment, but it is best to ask the messenger of Changxing Mansion to avoid any accidents.
Okay, let's take a look at the second treasure of the night. ”
Saying that, the two maidservants walked to the middle of chasing the light with a plate, and the plate was also covered with a white cloth, although the volume was much smaller than that of "Ma Ta Feiyan", but as long as it was branded with Tianbao Pavilion, no one dared to underestimate it.
In the expectant gaze of everyone, Xu Rui gently uncovered the white cloth on the wooden plate, and a strange small object appeared in front of everyone.
This object is a gold wire wearing two pieces of crystal clear gemstones, although the workmanship is very exquisite, but it seems to be too far from the "horse stepping on the swallow".
Everyone speculated that this thing might have other wonderful uses, and looked at Xu Rui suspiciously, waiting for his next step.
Xu Rui smiled faintly: "I heard that Master Fan Kunfan is very old and has not studied for many years?" ”
Hearing Xu Rui mention this matter, the crown prince Fan Kun sighed deeply and said: "As Xu Xiaoyou said, the old man is too old to see, and he has not studied for many years. ”
Thinking of Lord Fan's eyes, everyone sighed for a while.
Fan Kun is the mentor of Emperor Hongwei, and has always been favored by the emperor, if it weren't for his inability to write due to eye disease, and he has always been weak and does not like intrigue, the position of the first assistant of the cabinet may not fall on Huang Ting's head at all.
Xu Rui nodded, took off the second treasure on the plate, walked straight to Fan Kun, and respectfully handed it over with both hands.
"Please try this treasure of the late birth, Lord Fan."
Everyone was stunned, and Fan Kun was even more stunned, but Xu Rui and Tianbao Pavilion gave him too much shock, although he was almost hopeless at this age and status, he still couldn't help but take the treasure curiously, and then slowly brought it to his face with the help of Xu Rui.
"Ah, that's ......"
At the moment when Fan Kun reopened his eyes, he first frowned, then suddenly got up, stretched out his hands and looked back and forth in dismay.
The originally chaotic world became clear.
"How is this possible?!"
Fan Kun looked around in disbelief, and finally confirmed that everything was not a dream.
"I saw it, the old man saw it, and the old man can see again! Hahahaha! ”
Fan Kun never thought that he would be able to see the world clearly again, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, as if he was dozens of years younger in an instant, and swept away the old dragon clock.
"How can this thing help people regain their light?!"
The guests were stunned, looking at Xu Rui's gaze with respect and awe, if the "Horse Stepping on Feiyan" was just shocking, then this artifact that can make people regain their light is already an out-and-out immortal method.
In fact, Fan Kun had already asked Mr. Changpo to diagnose and treat him, and Xu Rui learned about Fan Kun's eye disease symptoms from Mr. Changpo's mouth, and then deduced that it should be severe presbyopia according to the description of the condition, so he made this pair of glasses without optometry.
Limited to technical means, the effect of this pair of glasses certainly cannot be compared with glasses from another world, but it is still completely possible for Fan Kun to barely be able to write.
Xu Rui seemed to have insight into what everyone was thinking, waved his hand and said: "The name of this thing is glasses, and it does have the effect of assisting vision, but there are many kinds of eye diseases, and glasses only work on some of them." ”
The eyes are the first of the five senses, in this world where there is no healthy light source and the dietary structure is relatively simple, there are many people suffering from various eye diseases, even if it is only effective for some eye diseases, it is definitely an out-and-out treasure.
When even a few guests who also suffered from eye diseases were moved and ready to bid, Fan Kun opened his mouth one step in advance.
"I don't know how much Xu Xiaoyou's glasses are worth?"
Saying that, he seemed to be a little shy, or too excited, and said with a slight trill: "The old man has been poor all his life, and his family is not rich, only teaching and educating people has some experience, if the old man's family resources are not enough, he can personally go to Xu Xiaoyou's house to serve as a west seat." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone gasped again.
The so-called Xixi is a tutor, Fan Kun has only been a tutor of one person in his life, that is Emperor Hongwei, how can this kind of treatment be measured by money?
However, his words are also tantamount to putting Xu Rui on the fire, the entire Great Wei, except for Emperor Hongwei himself, who dares to enjoy the same treatment as him?
Everyone looked at Xu Rui in astonishment, not knowing how this excessively young saint would answer.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that Xu Rui suddenly burst out laughing when he heard this.
"Lord Fan doesn't have to be like this, I forgot to tell you that glasses are like a decoction, not a one-size-fits-all approach, you must prescribe the right medicine for everyone's condition, this pair of glasses was originally tailored for Lord Fan, how can you ask Lord Fan for one or two lines of silver in later life?"
"This ...... The master said, the gentleman is useless and will not be punished, and the old man ......"
Fan Kun was about to refuse, but Xu Rui shook his head and said: "Lord Fan is the pillar of the country, and he can't be a director because of eye disease, this is the sorrow of my Great Wei."
In his later life, he was also a boy from the north, if a small pair of glasses could exchange a pillar for my Da Wei, why not? Could it be that Lord Fan doesn't want to let the late life do his part for my Great Wei? ”
Xu Rui's words were originally a slap in the face, but he said it confidently and sincerely, and immediately won a round of applause.
Fan Kun wore glasses, was stunned on the spot, looked at Xu Rui deeply for a while, and then sighed: "The day before yesterday, the family teacher praised Xu Xiaoyou as a saint, and the old man originally felt a little too much.
Seeing it today, Xu Xiaoyou not only has magical means, but also has a mind and pattern that is far beyond the reach of others.
That's it, today the old man will accept this treasure with a cheeky face, if the little friend needs help in the future, the old man will not refuse! ”
Tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of taels of things, are naturally ambitious, but what really shocked the people present was Fan Kun's last promise.
Don't look at Fan Kun only as a fictitious position as a crown prince, and he doesn't take care of things on weekdays, but with his relationship with Emperor Hongwei and his status among civil officials, if he really helps, there may not be anything he can't do.
The so-called promise is worth a thousand gold, Xu Ruida never planned to use this pair of glasses to make money from the beginning, what he wanted to earn was actually Fan Kun's friendship.
In his opinion, all the gains of tonight may not be as precious as a friendship of this old man.
After this episode, Xu Rui returned to the auction table with satisfaction, and said with a faint smile: "Let you wait for a long time, although the glasses are temporarily out of contact with you, I guarantee that the remaining two treasures will not disappoint you." ”
Saying that, Xu Rui clapped his hands lightly, and Liji, who was dressed in full costume, walked up with an ordinary-looking maid.
