Chapter 47 Auction

When Shen Jin'an, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, just entered that door, he attracted the attention of many people around him, there are two kinds of people in this world, one is that people look at your clothes to judge what your value is, and the second should be that people look at you to judge the value of clothes.

The environment of the Treasure Pavilion is very dark, and everyone is given a golden mask, which is also to make it difficult for each other to recognize each other.

Shen Jinan looked at the room that had been prepared for him, and squinted at the auction table in front of him.

With the sound of two very crisp bells, the guards and servants on both sides of the Treasure Pavilion fell to their knees on the ground.

Each of these guards had a face as if they were waiting for something, and after a while, they shouted to the only passage above the Treasure Pavilion, "The Pavilion Master of the Treasure Pavilion has come to meet the merchants who have come. ”

"What's going on?" Lu Jiangnan had never seen this kind of scene, and was a little curious.

Shen Jinan replied very old-fashionedly: "This pavilion master of the Treasure Pavilion has never shown his face, and sometimes it is quite mysterious, and some people say that the master of the Treasure Pavilion stays in his small black house all year round. Therefore, every time before the opening of the pavilion, his subordinates would shout at his room, which can be regarded as some special opening ceremony of the Treasure Pavilion. ”

"You know that, quite clearly." Lu Jiangnan said with some disdain.

Although Shen Jin'an heard that Lu Jiangnan was satirizing himself openly and secretly, he didn't care at all: "Of course, if you want me to say, you will follow me, and you can see a lot of big scenes in this life." ”

"Fuck off." Lu Jiangnan's answer is still that direct affirmation.

There are a total of more than a dozen items that the Treasure Pavilion intends to auction today, and they are all rare items as always. Song Na is an old department under the king of Xishu, it turned out to be a great achievement, and later retired from the army to engage in business because of his age, but he didn't want to be in a daze, and he could be regarded as a rich party, and even some local wealthy nobles were also looking at it, and with money in his hands, his waist pole was naturally a lot harder, and he auctioned off two or three treasures in a row.

Song Na's reputation is not very good, in the early years in the army, he liked to insult the sergeants and act recklessly, but because he could fight, Murong Di turned a blind eye to him, but since he had money, he felt that the eldest of the heavens and his second eldest had been competing for financial resources with a royal background figure in Xishu, but it also attracted countless scoldings, saying that he was fighting with the royal family for wealth, which was really a big rebellion, but the final result still surprised everyone in the local area, not only did Song Na not receive any substantial punishment, The big man with his royal background quietly moved away.

I have to say that today's treasure pavilion is undoubtedly the most popular business in recent years, I can't see anyone's auction ring, only some numbers that continue to rise wildly, and each increase in these numbers will make some poor people facing the loess and facing the sky feel that the sky is blind.

"Nine thousand taels, once, nine thousand taels, twice."

With the sound of ups and downs in the auction ring, everyone who participated in this auction seemed to be able to feel that the heart that had been hanging was also beating wildly.

"It seems that the 10,000 taels of silver ticket you brought is just a drop in the bucket here." Lu Jiangnan looked at the indicator plate that grew from nine thousand all the way to ten thousand at the bottom, and whispered to Shen Jin'an.

Shen Jinan said with a disdainful face: "What is this? This is just the opening dish of this grand feast. ”

"The starter?"

"Of course, this Treasure Pavilion needs eight or nine hundred taels of silver to operate every day, if you just do some business of ten thousand taels, then you are not waiting for bankruptcy."

"So you mean there's something more expensive?"

Shen Jin'an didn't answer to Lu Jiangnan, but just stretched out his finger and said to a woman next to the auction ring: "The person standing at the bottom is called Ming Dynasty, who used to rank third on the list of beauties in Western Shu, and claims that there is nothing she can't sell." The Treasure Pavilion is willing to spend a lot of money to invite her over, and it must not be so easy to spare these people's money bags. ”

As soon as Shen Jin'an finished speaking, he heard a whispering voice from the audience.

"Ladies and gentlemen, those gadgets just now naturally can't get into everyone's eyes, let me introduce you to a few rare things, okay?"

A sentence in the Ming Dynasty was like a hook that attracted the attention and appetite of countless people present.

A bright red robe also fluctuated with a smile in the Ming Dynasty, and the plump figure with a bumpy and convex figure suddenly made the eyes of some lustful people scorching flames, if the Ming Dynasty had a price, these people would probably speculate the price to the sky.

The handsome face of the Ming Dynasty had a little more charming smile, and he seemed to be very satisfied with his performance just now, and the words that made the man want to be uncontrollable made the man feel confident that he could not embarrass himself.

Looking at the amorous face of the Ming Dynasty, Shen Jinan couldn't help but smash his mouth.

"Shameless, scum." Lu Jiangnan, who is also a woman, is not very satisfied with this.

Shen Jinan looked at Lu Jiangnan's chest and then at the magnificent chest of the Ming Dynasty, and admitted very generously: "I do look like a scum." ”

"You..." Lu Jiangnan was also speechless by Shen Jin'an's words.

Ming Ming, who didn't know what was going on in the bakery, raised his lips slightly, chuckled, and then explained: "Distinguished guests, I believe you have fully understood the items we are going to auction today, so let's not say much and display them directly." ”

Ming Dynasty raised his little hand lightly while speaking, and the candle flame under the stage suddenly dimmed a lot, lowered his body slightly, and took out a box of about ten inches in size from the dark compartment under the table, and after gently opening the box, a night pearl was revealed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone is not mistaken, what we want to show this time is this night pearl, the night pearl must have been seen by everyone, but such a big night pearl, it can be said that it is the only one in the world, we spent a very huge price on a South China Sea cargo ship to get it back." Ming Dynasty briefly introduced the origin of an item, and then glanced around lightly and said: "As the first item, we have decided to give a sincere price, nine thousand eight hundred taels of silver!" Everyone is ready to bid! ”

The Ming Dynasty, which had been laughing in the auction ring, started doing business, which can be said to be a veritable lion's big mouth, and even Lu Jiangnan, who heard this price, gasped.

The price quoted in the Ming Dynasty soon had an echo.

A white note came out of the private room, and a maid who had been waiting next to her for a long time walked quickly to the auction ring with a white note.

After reading the note, Ming Dynasty said with a smile: "Twelve thousand!" ”

After shouting the price in the Ming Dynasty, he said softly: "Is there anything higher?" ”

"Fifteen thousand!"

"Eighteen thousand!"

In the auction hall, which was relatively quiet just now, it was like a pot of boiling water at this moment, and it suddenly became noisy.

After shouting prices one after another, the famous brand finally stopped in front of the "48,000 taels".

After listening to the ever-increasing prices, Shen Jinan was also amazed, and let out a burst of smack sounds, 48,000 taels of silver is almost a county's annual income.

"It's too expensive, isn't it?" When Lu Jiangnan saw the famous brand, the surprise on his face also threw the cold appearance behind.

Shen Jinan explained: "There should be an increase, because those buyers who are really powerful have not spoken, and these shouting are just trying to find a time that no one can react to." If I'm not mistaken, there should be a big kicker in a while. ”

Sure enough, after being quiet for half a stick of incense, the price of the night pearl was also raised to the point of 60,000 taels of silver.

"Sixty Thousand One"

"Sixty Two"

At this time, there are only two companies in the ring who are constantly passing notes outside, although the night pearl is a little expensive, but it is not a priceless treasure, and the price of more than 60,000 taels of silver is really expensive.

The two are not so much auctioning things as they are fighting each other.

Seeing that the two families are so wealthy, others naturally dare not compete easily, after all, in the land of Xishu, various forces are intricate, even if they auction it off themselves, once this piece of hot potato is not swallowed safely, it will be in vain.

Therefore, some other businessmen who knew that their strength was not good were also very familiar and did not participate in the competition between those two.

When the price of the night pearl was raised to seventy-eight thousand nine hundred taels, the scene once again returned to the quiet state at the beginning.

In the competition between the two sides, the Ming Dynasty on the stage has always maintained an unpredictable smile, looking at the growing gaze of the two families, as if they were freshly cooked delicacies.

"Is there still a price increase? If not, then the Ming Dynasty would like to congratulate the guests of our No. 19 Tianzi VIP room. ”

After making sure that there was no one around, the Ming Dynasty could be regarded as unsatisfied with the small hammer in his hand.

"That's it?" Lu Jiangnan asked in a low voice after hearing the hammer falling.

Shen Jin'an nodded and said: "Of course, the goods will generally be placed here for safekeeping, and after this auction is over, a special person will pay the money and deliver the goods with one hand." ”

After more than an hour of auction, more than a dozen of the more rare treasures were also sold at a reasonable price.

"According to the old habit, we now have half an hour of rest, if you have any needs, just order the people at the door." After Ming Ming finished speaking, he paced down the stairs gently.

"What does that mean?"

"To a certain extent, the Treasure Pavilion is actually very similar to the gambling house, but it is faster than the casino to make money, and thousands of transactions naturally need to be replenished or inspected, and some VIPs who have no money on hand should prepare some time to relax their minds, and it seems that the next thing at the bottom of the box is not ordinary." Shen Jin'an said faintly.
