Chapter 179: Good News from the Household Department

"Thirty thousand taels!"

At the auction site, the atmosphere has exploded.

The "Ancient Diffraction Mirror", which has a reserve price of only 1,000 taels, was actually shouted to this high price.

It's outrageous.

Dian Qingqiu, who was standing on the auction table, was a little unable to host.

Don't even need her to be kind and tempting, these people themselves have dried up the field.

"Thirty thousand taels ......"

After someone made this offer, most people began to sober up.

For those who can take out 30,000 taels, there are not 10,000 but 8,000 in the capital, so this price is not outrageous enough, and everyone can accept it.

But if you keep shouting, you have to care, if you smash your own hands, whether this thing is really worth the price.

"Is this really an ancient thing? How do I feel like last month's ......"

"Doesn't I feel a little new?"

"What has been blistered for thousands of years, how come there is no moss and no traces of water erosion?"

After the top, the discerning antique connoisseur immediately understood.

This is by no means an antique!

But this kind of thing is common in this industry, and all industrial fraud is a felony, but the art industry can counterfeit.

Everyone also tacitly agreed that they would not consider it a big sin.

The test is eyesight, and the bet is luck.

"Even if it's not an antique, isn't it worth 30,000 taels?"

"It's worth it for something so rare."

"It's really clear, it's clearer than the best bronze mirrors, and if it's something new for man, it's priceless."

"It does ......"

Then, the nobleman in a box ordered someone to shout.

"Thirty-four thousand taels."

"Thirty-five thousand." Someone immediately followed.

But at this moment, the price increase is very measured, and no one directly rises too much.

Because it is discovered that it is the product of a fabricated story, and perhaps it may be made, then the value of its uniqueness is greatly reduced.

If you spend any more, you will be wronged.

"Forty thousand!"

It's a sky-high price again.

It was a wealthy businessman who shouted, and he said: "Even if it is newly made, it must be extremely rare to have such a miraculous effect, and it must not be mass-produced." ”

If it could be mass-produced, it should have been taken out for money a long time ago.

But what he didn't know was that a certain Shangshu's heart was blacker than ink, and he didn't want to do odd business at all.

"Forty thousand?"

"Don't shout, it's not worth adding more."

"It's hard to say if it's worth it, and if it's really a one-of-a-kind product, we'll miss it."

"Don't follow, I have a good eye, and I see that it is a newly inlaid sandalwood border, and the wood has raw edges......"

"Forty thousand taels, is there a price increase for distinguished guests?" Seeing that no one responded, Dian Qingqiu was not disappointed, she was already satisfied with the price of this lot.

Forty thousand taels is a sky-high price, but there are many things that are auctioned here, and more expensive than this abounds.

So the people present were not very boiled.

"Bang!" Moments later, Dian Qingqiu dropped the hammer and announced the end of the auction.

……

The next morning.

At the Fengtian Palace, the household department first made a report on the disaster relief matters.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Yan Lanfeng asked to see His Majesty, and the monarchs and ministers of the Fengtian Palace looked at each other.

Xiao Pingsi knew that what Yan Lanfeng was going to say, the auction of the Ancient Divine Mirror last night could be said to have caused a storm all over the city, and it had already spread all over the city.

The merchant who bought the mirror had already left the capital overnight, so he was afraid of being targeted by a nobleman.

"Your Majesty......" Yan Lanfeng glanced around.

Wang Feng said skillfully: "Let's all go out." ”

The guards and palace maids and eunuchs all left the Fengtian Palace, and the door was closed.

Yan Lanfeng glanced at Mo Yuan again.

The emperor was also a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, Mo Yuan's tone was very tight, so he waved his hand to say that he didn't have to care.

"Yan Aiqing, do you want to talk about yesterday's events in detail?" Xiao Pingsi was the first to ask, and he couldn't wait to know the details.

None of the people were gone, and Yan Lanfeng was relieved to speak.

"Your Majesty, you have made a fortune!"

"Tobe has made a fortune!"

Yan Lanfeng could barely hold back, and he was excited and excited.

Xiao Pingsi also smiled: "Come quickly!" ”

In the past six months, there have been too many things in the capital, which has made him feel bad, and he always wants to hear some good news.

"Last night, the minister sent the finished products of the glass factory to the Zuixian Building for auction, and he got 36,000 taels of silver!"

The auction house is pumped.

"What?"

Mo Yuan exclaimed: "That mirror last night, was it the handiwork of the household?" ”

Such a novelty has been auctioned at a sky-high price, and it has naturally been known all over the city. As the commander of the forbidden army in the capital, how could Mo Yuan not know.

"Thirty-six thousand taels, it seems to be the same as what I learned." Xiao Pingsi smiled, when he was reported this morning, he guessed that Yan Lanfeng was doing it.

Mo Yuan sighed again: "Can this thing be mass-produced? ”

He recalled that Fang Cai Yan Lanfeng said "glass factory".

Since there is a factory, it can naturally be mass-produced.

Yan Lanfeng is positive: "Your Majesty, the glass factory has mastered the technology given by the young master, but the process is still a little imperfect, so the output is limited." ”

"The warehouse of the glass factory has been piled up with some various finished products, and Chen just tested the water yesterday to see how much this thing can be worth."

"It's better to set the price for the follow-up and investigate it clearly."

Yan Lanfeng said: "The minister is going to take out some one after another, just to make up for the shortcomings in Suzhou." ”

The disaster in Suzhou, although there is no detailed history of the imperial history, but the rough calculation has to start at 1.8 million.

If you can make more money, the pressure on the treasury will be less.

"This glass is more profitable than fireworks." Mo Yuan muttered.

……

After Yan Lanfeng left, Xie Qi came to see him.

"The minister has come to reply to the decree, and has raided the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, and copied out some letter evidence, please ask Your Majesty to read it."

Xie Qi handed over some evidence, presented it on a wooden plate, and handed it to Wang Feng.

Wang Feng forwarded it to the imperial case.

After only watching a few photos, Xiao Pingsi didn't have the patience to look any further.

"Hmph, what a Xia Song, what a tacit understanding of officialdom."

Xiao Pingsi was not angry, but said calmly and coldly: "These things happened in the territory of Great Xia, I'm afraid that not only Ganzhou, but even the grain team of the imperial court for disaster relief will have to pay for these livestock, as well as tolls?" ”

"It's really a big joke in the world, whose way is it in the whole world? Who's collecting tolls? ”

"Die!"

Xie Qi bowed: "The minister is here." ”

"Send Yushi and the Hanging Sword Division to transfer troops from Kaizhou to Ganzhou, thoroughly investigate all the people involved in this case, and send them back to the capital for trial. If the Ganzhou battalion tried in vain to block it, it directly took down the main generals! Xiao Ping said coldly.

"Your Majesty, I am afraid that such a big move will cause the officialdom to shake......" Xie Qi knew that those officials had already formed a huge net.

"Then let them jump out and let me see what fish are in this pool."

Xie Qi understands that His Majesty wants to set a model.

Immediately, I felt a little at ease, as long as it was not to rectify the whole country, it would not be too big.

Otherwise, if such a thing is really thoroughly investigated, it will pierce the sky.

"Also, I am not very worried about the safety of the young master, the Hanging Sword Division wants to send more people to protect the young master, he ripped off such a fig leaf this time, I am afraid that he will be regarded as a thorn in the side of others." Xiao Pingsi ordered.

"No." Xie Qi took the order and left.

In the imperial study, only Mo Yuan and Wang Feng were left.

Mo Yuan couldn't help but say, "What does Your Majesty plan to do with Xia Shangshu?" ”

Xiao Pingsi frowned and pondered.

"Who is the Squire of the Soldier's Department?" Xiao Pingsi asked Wang Feng beside him.

Is this to exchange books?

Wang Feng hurriedly recalled, and immediately replied: "Li Han, the squire of the military department, has some personal relations with His Royal Highness the King of Wei, but he has never exchanged courtesies. ”

"I have a personal relationship, but I am rude and still communicate, is this avoiding or trying to cover up this relationship?" Xiao Pingsi asked coldly.

Wang Feng smiled bitterly and did not answer.

"No matter who is in the position, Xia Song is no longer suitable to stay in this position."

"Don't move him for now, let the squire of the military department preside over the affairs of the military department for the time being, and wait for the investigation in Ganzhou to end, and then see how deep this Xia Song is involved."

Xiao Pingsi covered his forehead and squeezed the corner of his eye.

Originally, there was news from the household department, and I was in a much better mood today, but I was angry with Xia Song again.

An old minister who pretends to be rotten all day long, waiting for retirement and support, who would have thought that he would secretly earn enough.

That's why you're so lazy and don't want to make progress, right?

After all, the court has only a lot of money, and the money from the outside comes quickly.

"Go back to the harem, Mo Qing retreat."
