Chapter XVII

Today is the most lively day in the drunken township building, Wuyue thought that it would take at least a month for Nangong Yi'er to complete the ten calligraphy and paintings, but I didn't expect that only half a month had passed, and the maid Xiaodong had brought the calligraphy and paintings, and it was fifteen! Each one can be called a boutique, which is many grades higher than the previous ones!

Wuyue smiled and told Po to bring the wooden sign over the notice, she was going to write a notice! Prepare for the auction tomorrow!

The next morning, as soon as the wooden sign was put out, at noon, the drunken village building was already overcrowded. This is the effect that the Moon Dance is waiting for, and the more people there are, the better. After waiting for almost, Wuyue walked on stage, and everyone in the audience saw that someone finally came up, and it was quiet for a while.

Wuyue said: "Thank you for coming to Zuixiang Mansion to cheer, today I will preside over this auction by Wuyue, the one with the highest price will win!" Then, after a glance backstage, Po immediately reacted when he saw Wuyue's eyes, and beckoned a few people from the security department to come to the stage with a few calligraphy and paintings on display.

Wuyue continued: "The ten calligraphy and paintings in this auction are all treasures of the Qing Gongzi, the auction lasts for two days, five paintings a day, first of all, I want to unveil today's first calligraphy and painting!" ”

Everyone in the audience held their breath, only to see the dancing moon lift the cloth, and a calligraphy and painting of "Ten Thousand Horses Galloping" appeared in front of everyone, and the audience was amazed! Wuyue knew that they would have this kind of reaction, thinking about when Xiao Dong sent it over last night, she looked at it, and it was the same as the expressions of these people!

Wuyue continued: "This 'Ten Thousand Horses Galloping' looks like there are only eight horses, but it gives people the feeling that there are ten thousand horses running, which is indeed a masterpiece!" The poems mentioned next to it, I believe that people who understand poetry know that it can be called a quatrain, and the starting price of today's 'Ten Thousand Horses Galloping' is 5,000 taels! ”

This price was naturally set by Nangong Yi'er, and Wuyue still disagreed with it at the time, but when she heard her sister Yi'er say that the price was too low, this calligraphy and painting seemed to be out of grade, and this was her own calligraphy and painting, and it was worth more than Zhuo Zhuo! Wuyue finally agreed, she also wanted to see how much this calligraphy and painting could be auctioned!

When the people in the audience heard it, most of them were still frightened by the five thousand taels, but when they looked at the painting, they felt that it was qualified to ask for five thousand taels, and when some people were still thinking, some people began to make a move, this person was a small rich merchant who bought salt in Ao Yuguo and shouted: "I will pay five thousand five hundred taels!" ”

There is a person who starts up, and the person who wants to get this calligraphy and painting behind him can't help it!

"I'll give six thousand taels!"

"I'll give you six thousand five hundred taels!"

"I'll give seven thousand taels!"

"I'll give seven thousand five hundred taels!"

"I'll give you eight thousand taels!"

……

……

"I'll give 100,000 taels!" A middle-aged man's voice suddenly sounded, and when he reported the number, everyone's eyes were on him.

I don't know who said: "It turned out to be Master Nangong, the richest businessman in Aoyu Country!" That's a big deal! "Other people are also talking about it, this money is not spent like this, they only sell it for 50,000 taels at most!

Wuyue was also very excited by the 100,000 taels, but she reacted immediately and said, "This Nangong master gave 100,000 taels!" Has anyone offered a higher price again! After waiting for a while, no one asked for any more.

Wuyue continued: "One hundred thousand taels one time! One hundred thousand two times! One hundred thousand two or three times! Deal! A startled wood slapped heavily on the table, and then a waiter asked Master Nangong to go to the shopkeeper to pay for calligraphy and painting!

Wuyue then opened the second calligraphy and painting, and said: "This second painting is called 'Fish Leaping Dragon Gate', and the starting price is three thousand taels!" Start bidding! ”

Everyone at the bottom was full of praise when they saw the "Fish Leaping Dragon Gate", and someone began to bid: "Four thousand taels!" ”

"Four thousand five hundred taels!"

"Five thousand taels!"

"Five thousand five hundred taels!"

……

……

At this time, the second richest merchant in Aoyu Country, Lord Wang, bid: "One hundred thousand taels!" ”

Then there was no sound at the bottom, and Wuyue asked if anyone offered a higher price, and when she saw that no one answered, she directly patted the shocking wood and said, "This second painting belongs to Master Wang!" ”

Another waiter walked up to Master Wang in time and took him to pay for the painting!

The next three paintings all start at 5,000 taels, and of course they are not ordinary! was auctioned by Lord Nangong at a price of 200,000 taels, and Master Wang bid 100,000 taels for a photo, and now Master Nangong still has one more than Master Wang. And these five paintings were auctioned for 500,000 taels!

This is something that Dancing Moon never dreamed of! Those old men who didn't take pictures hated these two people so much! But it's okay, who calls people rich!

What Wuyue wants to do most at the moment is to hurry up and spread the news to Sister Yi'er!

A carrier pigeon suddenly flew into the bamboo grove garden, and Xiao Dong was the first to notice it, and handed the note to her young lady. When Nangong Yi'er saw it, she was also shocked by the number! Her estimate was at most 200,000 taels, but she didn't expect to be able to shoot 500,000 taels! It's a lie to say that she wasn't surprised, but she also saw a person she was more familiar with - Master Nangong!

It turned out to be her father who didn't have many images, and it was really ironic, the father spent a lot of money to buy his daughter's calligraphy and paintings, who would believe it! If Nangong Xu knew that she was Qing Yifeng, I don't know how she would feel!

Xiao Dong looked at her young lady, changed from surprise to a lost expression in an instant, and asked cautiously, "Miss, what did Sister Wuyue write?" ”

Nangong Yi'er didn't see anything outside at all, and showed the note to Xiaodong. Xiao Dong took a look, and for a moment it was the same as Nangong Yi'er's expression just now, he didn't expect the master to buy three calligraphy and paintings from Miss, if the master knew that he didn't value his daughter so much, and now that he has such a talent, it is estimated that it will be too late to regret it! After all, for so many years, the master doesn't care about the young lady, and he really doesn't deserve to be a father!

Nangong Yi'er actually didn't want to show such a loss, maybe this body didn't listen to her, and the feeling of longing for father's love came up all of a sudden, Nangong Yi'er thought, it must be that this body still has a trace of its true owner's thoughts!

I'm afraid that she Nangong Yi'er won't be able to realize her wishes, and she Nangong Yi'er is the most disdainful of this kind of father! Nothing better!

This little episode, Wuyue doesn't know, she is still looking forward to how much money she can make from the second auction tomorrow!

Before I knew it, another day had passed, and today was the second auction, and like yesterday, it was also crowded at noon today. However, there are many people looking around, afraid that if they see the two gods of wealth yesterday again, they will continue to snap these last five paintings with them, otherwise it is estimated that some people will be so angry that they vomit blood! But luckily, I didn't see those two people.

Wuyue continued to preside over today's auction, and the starting prices for all five paintings were set at 5,000 taels, followed by the undulating bidding of everyone!

The sixth mandarin duck playing in the water was taken away by an upstart 80,000 taels! The seventh alpine flowing water was auctioned away by the little rich merchant who bought salt last time, 70,000 taels! The other three were each auctioned off for 50,000 taels by the three masters with a bit of family background, and the total proceeds of this auction were 300,000 taels! I'm already very satisfied with Dancing Moon.

And this auction has also come to an end, and it is estimated that this matter will become the object of discussion among the people of Aoyu after dinner!

Nangong Yier also learned the results of the second auction for the first time, and even gained 300,000 taels, so plus the 500,000 taels of the first auction, a total of 800,000 taels! Wuyue had already informed her that she could go to Mr. Bookkeeper at any time to get back the 800,000 taels.

However, Wuyue also has a selfish request, that is, she hopes that Nangong Yier will give her the five paintings that were not sold as souvenirs, Nangong Yier will not be so stingy, and she promised her, and she can still afford a few paintings Nangong Yier! What's more, the object is still Dancing Moon, and it is estimated that Dancing Moon should be happy at this time!

It will take a few days, and the frequency of Nangong Yier and Xiaodong going out of the house is relatively high in the past few days, and Xiaodong is tired enough to run around with her young lady!

On the street, "Miss, why are we running around?" Xiao Dong was really puzzled and asked her young lady.

Nangong Yi'er smiled mysteriously and said, "Look for business opportunities!" ”

Xiao Dong continued to be puzzled: "Miss, what is a business opportunity?" ”

Nangong Yi'er said: "You'll know when the time comes!" ”

Xiao Dong was a little speechless, why every time she asked the key, her young lady always said, "You will know when the time comes", through such a long period of contact, Xiao Dong gradually understood the meaning of her young lady's words, that is, she didn't want to continue to waste saliva and nonsense with her, so Xiao Dong obediently shut up every time she heard this!

When they walked to a teahouse, Nangong Yi'er stopped and walked in directly. As soon as I entered, I found that the business of this teahouse was so deserted! It's afternoon, and it's just three or four people drinking tea? There is also a shopkeeper who is listless on the side, and the shopkeeper is dozing off!

Nangong Yi'er knocked on the shopkeeper's table, the shopkeeper was half asleep and awake, and asked, "Son, is this eating or staying in the hotel?" ”

Nangong Yi'er said: "I'm here to talk to your boss about business!" ”

When the shopkeeper heard that he was sleepy, he ran out and said, "I opened this shop, I don't know what business my son wants to discuss?" ”

Nangong Yi'er said: "Can you take a step to speak!" ”

The shopkeeper immediately understood, and invited Nangong Yi'er to talk in the back room.

As soon as she sat down, Nangong Yi'er said straight to the point: "As far as I know, since the welcoming restaurant opposite you opened a year ago, your teahouse business has been very bleak!" ”

The shopkeeper also replied: "What the son knows, how can I not know, but the welcome is opened by the first rich businessman Nangong's family, how can I grab this small shop!" ”

Nangong Yi'er smiled, she had already inquired about Nangong Xu's industry when she welcomed guests, and of course she was prepared to choose this teahouse, so she said, "Why didn't the shopkeeper get rid of the store?" ”

The shopkeeper said: "I also want to plate!" But no one wants the price to be higher, and I feel that I have lost money if the price is lower, so I have been consuming until now. ”

Nangong Yi'er said: "How much does the shopkeeper have to pay to feel that he is not a loss?" ”

The shopkeeper said: "I also know that this teahouse can't make a lot of money, but I have also paid six or seven years of hard work for this teahouse, and to be honest, I am a little reluctant to sell it!" But my wife and children at home all rely on me to support them, even if I want to give at least 50,000 taels, I am willing! ”

When Nangong Yi'er heard it, it was only 50,000 taels? She thought it would cost hundreds of thousands of taels! It's still not very clear about the assessment of some prices in this dynasty, and it seems that you have to study hard.
