184 Excessive self-cooked
At the beginning of March, the unemployed villagers had already begun to plough and plough the land, and the investment promotion meeting in Gujia Village was officially opened.
Before dawn, there were people in and out of the village, Yang Pei arranged for people to guide the way at the entrance, Gu San was responsible for placing the carriages and horses, and Yang Huai and Yu'an were responsible for taking the businessmen to the investment center to take their seats.
When the merchants got together, they were shocked.
The main table in front is temporarily blocked by a screen, which is embroidered with flowers and wealth, a very common pattern, but it makes people see the wealth and luxury.
There are also coral potted plants on the shelves in the corner, this thing is difficult to buy even if you have money, but Gujiacun is so arrogant that it is not afraid of being damaged.
The two large vases at the entrance are even more eye-catching, and at first glance they are not bargains......
After admiring the layout of the venue, everyone began to discuss.
"This shop is really big, every floor is very generous, and it is very good to open a green building."
"The county lord can say that he can open any shop, but he can't open the Qinglou Casino, otherwise he will never be allowed to enter Gujia Village again."
"I'm not kidding, in fact, it's also very good to do money business, there are so many businessmen coming and going, the money bank has to make a lot of money."
"Everyone thinks so, it depends on whether you have the luck to get the store."
"This number plate says that you need to participate in the auction to get the store competition, I want to ask everyone present, what is the meaning of the word auction?"
Everyone was confused.
Not to mention the word auction, even the word investment, they have heard of it for the first time in their lives.
Just when he was confused, a group of people walked in at the entrance.
Gu Qing walked in from the entrance.
She walked first, followed by Yang Pei and Yu An, followed by Shopkeeper Wang, and Gu Yigu came in to maintain order.
As soon as she entered, all the merchants present could not help but stand up and salute in unison.
"I've seen Lord Rongchang."
The county lord is a royal family, and people of such status even came to receive their group of low-status businessmen in person, which made them feel that they had received supreme courtesy, even if they didn't buy a shop, even if they ran for nothing, it was worth it.
"Welcome guests from afar." Gu Qing stood on the main stage with a warm smile, "Everyone sit down." β
The businessmen sat down together, and although there were many people in the venue, it was strangely quiet.
"We're all gathered here for the same purpose, so I'm going to get straight to the point."
Gu Qing also sat down and said in an orderly manner, "This investment conference, I am very happy for you to participate, the number plate in each person's hand is unique, and the auction will rely on this number to bid."
Every time you raise a sign, it means participating in the bidding, this process is called an auction, and the highest bidder can own the shop. β
"After obtaining the storefront, you can carry out commercial activities in Gujia Village, and what you do to make a living must be subject to the unified dispatch of Gujia Village, there is one pointββ"
She changed her words, "Shops must pay taxes on time and must not do anything illegal and undisciplined, Qinglou and casinos are not allowed!" β
All businessmen have said that they can understand this.
Seeing that everyone had no objections, Gu Qing nodded with satisfaction: "Then now, let's start bidding for the first store." β
Yang Pei removed the screen, and behind it was a white wall, hanging a map of Dahe Town, and the commercial street was circled, and each shop was marked with a number.
"No. 1 shop, located in the first room of Gujia Avenue, is also the entrance to the commercial street."
Yang Pei recited the lines with emotion, "This shop has three floors, which can be used as a teahouse or a pawnshop...... That's all for the introduction of the No. 1 shop, and now the starting price is announced, 1,000 taels of silver! β
One thousand taels of silver is indeed a huge amount of money that is difficult to save for a lifetime for a village household, but it is nothing to a businessman.
For a small sum of money, you can buy the storefront of Gujia Village, which is just like the middle of the day, which is a sure deal.
But soon, the people present knew that they were thinking too much, because the starting price was 1,000 taels of silver, which did not mean that they only needed such a small amount of money.
"Two thousand taels!"
"Four thousand taels!"
"Six thousand taels!"
ββ¦β¦β
The merchants below raised their cards one after another as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, for fear that they would be one step slower and the price would rise rapidly.
The onlookers, such as Li Zheng, Old Lady Gu, and Shopkeeper Wang, were directly stunned.
When Gu Qing proposed this plan, they were still worried that no one would participate, but they didn't expect that the enthusiasm of these businessmen was so high.
It's just a shop, or a shop in the village, it can sell for nearly 10,000 silver, and the price is still rising!
"I'll give you 20,000 taels of silver!"
A voice suddenly sounded, and the price was directly broken.
Everyone followed the prestige and saw Nangong Yi.
Nangong Yi's identity has changed in the entire Gujia Village. This person is the richest man in Daliang, but he is not just a businessman, he is also an imperial businessman, not only has a lot of business in Daliang, but also has business contacts in Xiliang, Beichen, and Persia.
I heard that they can also have tokens that can enter and leave the palace at any time, and this status is beyond the reach of these merchants in their lifetime.
As soon as he opened his mouth like this, who would fight with him, and they all gave up one by one.
"Everyone, accept and accept." Nangong Yi stood up and arched his hand, smiling, what a handsome son.
Then he said casually to the person beside him, "If you want to win the store, you can't hesitate, I am very optimistic about the potential of Gujia Village." β
The richest man said so, where are you willing to wait and see.
On the stage, Yang Pei continued to speak: "The second shop is adjacent to Qinghan desserts...... The starting price is two thousand taels of silver. β
Before others could raise their cards, Nangong Yi got up again: "I'll give 50,000 taels, don't rob me, and I won't rob the rest with you. β
"Shhh
"As soon as you open your mouth, it will cost you 50,000 taels, and you deserve to be the richest man in Daliang!"
"He's playing like this, what are we going to do?"
"Didn't people say that the latter ones didn't participate? Besides, the one with the highest price wins, and you can't shoot others. Why bother? β
For this situation, Yang Pei was happy to see it, and said with a smile: "The rules here, those with high prices get it, those who are willing to pay a high price can raise their cards again, and those who are unwilling can shoot the shops behind, and there are ninety-eight shops, you don't have to worry." β
Nangong Yi smiled with a harmless face. But with an imminent momentum, where did everyone dare to fight with him, they immediately gave up.
So, the second shop went to Nangong Yi again.
He looked at the stage, just as Gu Qing looked over, his eyebrows were crooked, and he smiled at Gu Qing very happily.
Gu Qing nodded lightly in response, always feeling that the richest man was a little too familiar.
The auction continued, and the starting price was 1,000 taels, except for the largest shops in the middle, which were 2,000 taels.
One hundred shops, all auctioned out, the highest is 50,000 silver, the lowest is 3,000 taels of silver, and Gu Qing's total income this time has reached more than 600,000 taels.
This number made Yang Pei and the others speechless in shock, and Gu Qing was also shocked.
She really didn't expect that these merchants would be so rich and auction off a hundred shops to get such a big profit, which completely exceeded her estimates......
