Chapter 194: I'm Forty and Three This Year
When the fat old steward asked his subordinates to carefully hold the glass to Guanyin on the display table, there was a small commotion in the auction, which had been relatively quiet.
Even if they fought with each other before, they would be extremely subtle, and the trench merchants who showed their noble cultivation all the time couldn't help but be moved!
Liuli, it's really Liuli!
Nowadays, in the top rich circles, the glass is very hot, but on the contrary, in addition to those broken beads that are not flat and green, it is extremely difficult to see objects with regular appearances.
If the color is a little brighter, the already inflated price will rise a lot!
But even in this top rich place in Yangzhou, the trench merchants who are accustomed to seeing all kinds of rare treasures have never seen such transparent glass on the display stand, without a trace of variegated color!
This kind of glazed products, not to mention the appearance of the goddess of mercy is polished to lifelike, even the most subtle hair is clearly visible, even if it is just a round bead, this is worthy of the title of treasure!
"I found this thing by chance, and the host's family was in a hurry to use the money, so I temporarily added the photo, and I didn't know the VIPs in advance, I'm really embarrassed, the little old man is here to confess!"
What did the chubby old butler say, no one in the audience cared anymore, and there was only one thought left in everyone's minds, in this world, there was really transparent and flawless glass!
Many people are breathing heavily, how can they still have the reserved attitude just now?
The old steward was accustomed to the wind and waves, so he naturally knew what to do next.
The half-palm-sized Guanyin was placed securely on a makeshift sandalwood shelf, and then the old steward ordered bright lights to be placed around the display stand.
Even if it wasn't sunlight, even if there was no rumored bright colorful light, everyone was still intoxicated by the aura of Dao refraction from the Sending Zi Guanyin!
Just by the light of the lamp on it, there can be such a beautiful view, if this glass sent to the goddess of mercy in the sun......
The news that came out of the palace turned out to be true!
Looking at the small send-off Guanyin on the booth, everyone couldn't help but start to hallucinate, what kind of miraculous scene is the rumored half-foot-high crane ornament placed in the sun?
You can see a leopard in the tube!
Concubine Chen is really blessed!
To be able to take a person who appeared in this small auction, even if it is not the richest in Yangzhou City, it can be regarded as the top group of people, Hengtong Firm's door is still very good, coupled with the hot situation of glass products, this can almost temporarily participate in the auction in the way of stopping.
The trench merchants under the platform have begun to secretly evaluate the price in their hearts, and even think about whether such a glass ornament with a special meaning falls into their hands, whether to hide it and play alone, or to come in for other purposes?
Those who have a mind to live have already remembered that the current official family has been on the throne for several years, and at this time, there are no heirs!
There is no queen today, which is also one of the important reasons for the instability of the Great Yan Kingdom today.
If you can get this piece of Guanyin, you can enter the palace and dedicate it...... Judging from Concubine Chen's love for glass, she can't do some things that she can't do in ordinary times!
Of course, more people are just intoxicated by the charm of the glass and want to pocket the goddess of mercy.
It's just that this auction didn't inform in advance that there would be such a rare treasure, and many people were not prepared enough, and it is really impossible to say who this treasure will end up with!
"All of you are well-informed people, the benefits of this glass to send Guanyin don't need to be a little old man's mouth, if you are interested, you can come to the stage in person to take a closer look."
The old steward sighed in his heart, he didn't know how many treasures he had handled in his life, but if it was said that it could leave a deep memory on him, this glass Guanyin must be in the list!
It's a pity that the host's family sent it late, and even despite the dissuasion, he insisted on going his own way and had to be auctioned temporarily, which was somewhat dusty.
If you warm up in advance, if you can make a noise in the top trench business district in Yangzhou City...... I'm afraid that in today's venue, there will not even be enough people!
The entrenchers who are qualified to bid for this glass gift Guanyin took the stage one by one to watch it up close, and their faces were full of fascination, which was also the last way that the old steward could come up with, and he couldn't be blind to such a treasure!
Zhao Hengyi, who was sitting in the specially prepared box, looked at the expressions of those trench merchants with a smile, and he believed that the kindness he brought to everyone would definitely be able to sell for a good price.
"The starting price is 5,000 taels, and everyone can increase the price."
"Ten thousand taels!"
"Twenty thousand taels!"
"Thirty thousand taels! I, Liu Hongzhou, are forty and three this year, and I have no heirs, so you can save face! ”
"Liu Hongzhou, don't break the rules here! Thirty-five thousand taels! ”
Although the glazed products are hot at the moment, after all, the ornament on the stage is not large, and the style of sending the child Guanyin is too directive, so after the price is more than 40,000 taels of silver, the speed of the price increase will slowly decrease.
Liu Hongzhou, who broke the rules, seemed to be really bound to win, although he was not crazy about raising the price, but he kept shouting the price, biting very hard, and in the end, he auctioned this piece of Guanyin at the price of 48,000 taels of silver.
When the dust settled, the trench merchants were in harmony again, some congratulated Liu Hongzhou, and some ridiculed him for buying more magical sea medicine to step up cultivation, but what they thought in their hearts, as long as the trench merchants themselves were clear.
The old steward, who thought that the whole auction was over, was about to call it a day and leave, but was stopped by a slave who came in a hurry, and after whispering a few words, the old steward suddenly showed a bright face!
"Everyone, everyone! Listen to the little old man! ”
The chubby old steward was full of red light, and the oil stars on his face seemed to be happy, "Little Lao'er just received news from our host, and three days later, there will be another glass pagoda auction on the trumpet!" For specific details, we will personally explain after the tea is held! ”
One last glance at the boiling crowd, Zhao Hengyi left the auction hall with the guards satisfied.
Today's harvest is quite rich, presumably three days later, it will be another grand scene!
Whether it is the migration of the people of Yushuwan to Qiongzhou Mansion to garrison, or the next development of Sanya Bay, as well as the continuous collection of displaced people in the future, it is all a matter of burning silver.
Without enough money, you can't move an inch!
What's more, Zhao Hengyi didn't just take everyone to live in a different place, he went to Qiongzhou Mansion to engage in industrialization.
Although Qiongzhou is comfortable, it can do anything, and the cost of the initial investment will be several times that of Yushu Bay!
But there is an extreme shortage of money, so Zhao Hengyi plans to ask the trench merchants in Yangzhou to fund a little, and give him the silver to develop industrialization, which is better than the fact that they think about how to eat one meal every day.
