"Okay, the four beauties have also seen it, and now they are bidding for the auction, the reserve price, 8,000 taels."

Ooh! As soon as this price came out, the crowd at the bottom exclaimed, the high price of 8,000 taels was a bit unexpected by everyone, not that everyone couldn't afford this price, even if it was more, there were many people at the bottom, the key is the question of whether it was worth it, spending nearly 10,000 taels of silver to buy a few women, this is not a cost-effective deal.

You must know that now buying an ordinary strong man labor is only a few dozen taels, and the young and beautiful little maid is no more than 100 taels, and these 4 people will cost 8,000 taels, and an average of 2,000 taels per person, which is simply a sky-high price.

However, looking at the appearance of these four women, they are still rare quadruplets, just by virtue of this rarity, think about it yourself, this price is not expensive, so, no matter when, there are some people who love beauty and do not love the country, and some people who have long been dazzled by beauty begin to compete in turn.

"I'm out of 9000." These people don't care about their identities now, they don't use the servants around them to shout the price, and they start to end the game in person, as if they are afraid that they will be robbed by others if they are one step slower.

"I'll give 10,000 taels." A wealthy businessman who looked like a thin bamboo pole directly raised a sign to ask for the price, looking at the four beauties on the stage, his saliva was about to flow.

"I'll give you 11,000 taels." A jade-faced scholar wearing brocade and white silk indifferently raised a sign to offer, but if you look at his eyes carefully, you will find that when he looks at those beauties, he will shine.

"I'll give you twelve thousand taels." A big fat rich businessman held up a sign with a red face and said, this guy's eyes are already red.

"Fourteen thousand taels."

.....

Lu Yu has not made a bid, he is not in a hurry, compared to money, he is definitely richer than the entire imperial court, and all the money in this country together is not as much as him. After all, he had exhausted ninety percent of the world's gold reserves, which was simply incalculable.

So he sat on the chair and watched with interest at these people's crazy bidding, but the effort of a cup of tea, from the low price of 8,000 taels, has climbed to more than 20,000. It seems that this man can really give up everything for the sake of beauty.

"30,000 taels!" As soon as this price came out, the hall was suddenly quiet, 30,000 taels, or cash, which is already half or all of many people's net worth.

"40,000 taels." The jade-faced boy in brocade and white silk shouted out this price with a red face, obviously, it seems that this price should be the limit of what he can reach.

Lu Yu glanced at him with great interest, and found that this son turned out to be a fake, but he was actually a girl, which is strange, a man buys a beautiful woman for enjoyment, what is that girl buying a beautiful woman for? Could it be that this girl's hobbies are different from others?

However, these Lu Yu did not delve into it, what hobbies people have, it has nothing to do with him, and he is not interested in inquiring.

As soon as the price of 40,000 taels came out, many people directly lost their voices, and put down the brand in their hands in despair, obviously not planning to call it anymore.

Only the fat rich businessman raised the brand in his hand again.

"45,000 taels."

The price will be increased by 5000 taels, and then look at this guy's smug face, the appearance of ambition, it is estimated that he wants to use this price to make a final decision, sure enough, there were originally two left below who wanted to try, and I gave up when I heard this price.

The tomboy, the real girl, was so angry that her face turned crimson, but she didn't raise the sign again, because she couldn't take out so much money.

The rich businessman looked around with his head tilted his head and smiled proudly: "Thanks to everyone, Li has thanked me here." ”

"Be polite, Master Li is rich in the world, and it is their blessing for these beauties to serve you."

This fat man is a salt merchant in Lianghuai, since ancient times, the salt merchant has been rich in the world, and black and white are all-encompassing, no one has more money, no one has more strength, how to fight?

Just when the fat salt merchant was already fantasizing about how to play with these four beauties when he went back, a crisp voice suddenly sounded in the corner.

"My young master will pay 10,000 taels."

Everyone looked back in surprise, only to see a young man beside him, a little girl holding a sign, obviously the price of '10,000 taels' was just shouted by the maid.

Seeing that the master and servant looked ordinary, they didn't look like people from a rich family, and they were very faceless, and someone next to them suddenly laughed and said, "Little girl, you're too slow to react, right?" Now that they have been called forty-five thousand taels, what's the use of you giving ten thousand taels? ”

"Hahaha, this little girl is stupid and doesn't know which is more than 10,000 or 40,000."

Suddenly there was laughter in the hall, which made Xiao Cui's face flush, like a ripe tomato, just now when the young master called her to shout, she was startled, she really didn't understand, how could those four women be worth so much money, so she was a little distracted for a while, and dropped a term.

Now after listening to the ridicule of these people, he immediately blushed and defended: "What my young master said is 10,000 taels of gold. ”

The laughter in the hall suddenly fell silent, a... 10,000 taels of gold?! The people who were still laughing at Lu Yu and Xiaocui just now suddenly stopped and looked at the two of them incredulously.

What is the concept of 10,000 taels of gold? In fact, the calculation is very simple, most people who know a little bit of mathematics know that the exchange ratio of gold and silver announced by the imperial court is 1:100, that is, 10,000 taels of gold, that is, 1 million taels of silver.

One million taels, all the people in this hall, one counts as one, no one can come up with so much money, even if they sell the family's business and house, they can't make it up.

The only thing that has some hope is the chubby salt merchant, but could he have turned himself into a pauper for the sake of these four women? Hehe, if he becomes a poor bastard today, he may have to die on the streets tomorrow.

The money shopkeeper who presided over the auction on the stage was also a little confused, one million taels of silver, are you sure it's not a joke? "This son, are you sure the price you are calling is 10,000 taels of gold?"

Lu Yu nodded, "Sure, it's only 10,000 taels, no need to make a fuss." ”

10,000 taels, that's it? You can't die if you don't pretend to be forced, can you? Your family is a court opener, huh? Even if the current emperor who opened the imperial court, he didn't dare to take out 10,000 taels of gold to buy four beauties, so he wouldn't be sprayed to death by the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces.

If you want to say that a person can take out 10,000 taels of gold to buy a beauty, most of the people here don't believe it, besides, obviously you can't use so much, you call it 1,000 taels of gold, and no one will fight with you, you have to call 10,000 taels, and you don't burn it like this if you have money.

"This, this son, because of the huge amount, I wonder if you can prove that you really have so much money?" The money shopkeeper looked indifferent, he didn't really believe that this ordinary-looking young man could take out 10,000 taels of gold to buy a woman, more likely, this person was purely making trouble, and even was ready, if this kid couldn't come up with the money, he would ask someone to blow him out.

It's not just the money shopkeeper who thinks so, most people think so, so a middle-aged man next to Lu Yu said with a slight mockery: "Young man, this is not a place to make trouble, and you will be kicked out." The man looked like he was admonishing, but his eyes were full of disdain.
