Chapter 300: The Auction Begins
Su Fu sent someone to find Ran Fang's matter, and he didn't want to hide it from anyone, but he didn't want to let everyone know, but the matter had already spread in the city.
Therefore, many people in the back wanted to go to Ran Fang's mansion to hear some news about the auction.
It's a pity that Ran Fang had expected this thing a long time ago, and he closed the door from the next day, and no matter who came, he couldn't see Ran Fang.
Those people didn't get the news, and turned to find Su Fu, but unfortunately Su Fu didn't know anything, people just thought that Su Fu and Ran Fang had reached some agreement.
For a while, there was a lot of speculation about Su Fu and Ran Fang in the city, especially after Su Zhi brought a woman into the house that day, but the woman did not come out when Su Zhi left.
This incident can't help but make people guess that Ran Fang must be a person who loves beautiful women very much, and some people also have some contempt for Ran Fang in their hearts.
Even so, people tried to get information about the auction from various sources, but to no avail.
At this time, the news finally came out from the commander's palace that those who were able to participate in the auction would be sent an invitation letter, which was the ticket to enter the auction.
These tickets are personally given by the Commanding Embassy and will be registered, so no one will cheat or try to steal other people's tickets.
At the same time, if you lose your ticket, you will also lose your qualification to participate in the auction.
There is no word on when the tickets will be delivered or to whom.
So after the popularity of the auction has cooled, people began to ask every day: "Can someone in the house send tickets?" ”
"Do you know who has a ticket?"
No one will say whether their family has won the admission ticket, after all, they are not afraid of thieves stealing and thieves are afraid of thieves, so when the auction starts, no one knows who will be able to participate.
It wasn't until the day of the auction that people saw everyone at the auction floor.
The venue of this auction was something that no one expected, especially in a courtyard where there were many tables and chairs, each with three names on them, and next to the name there was a sign with the family name written on it.
Although none of the people present understood what it meant, they obediently sat down according to their names.
As soon as he sat down, someone couldn't wait to speak: "Master Su, do you know which family it is?" ”
Su Shangqing glanced at the person who spoke, and he didn't need to look at the sign on the table to recognize that this person was from the Yao family in Xianyang City.
He looked in the direction pointed by the Yao family, and after carefully distinguishing it, he shook his head very surely.
"I haven't seen it, it shouldn't be a nobleman in Xianyang City."
Hearing their conversation, someone immediately surrounded them, and they also echoed: "There are several families here, but they have never seen each other. ”
The person from the Fan family at the next table also spoke: "Yes, I heard before that the commander has always wanted to promote the integration of Great Qin, and I am afraid that this time I will do the same." ”
The people of the Gong family said: "You have found out, and I have noticed that the people who came to participate this time do not seem to have any important official positions in the court. ”
The Yan family whispered about the news they had gotten: "There is news that the commander of the envoy who proposed to be an official is not allowed to do business, I am afraid that he will do this from now on." ”
When the people of the Zuo family heard their chat, they showed a happy look on their faces, and couldn't help but speak: "If this is really the case, it is also a good thing, but I don't know if there are other things in this auction besides those factories?" ”
While the people of the family were talking, at a distance from the tables, there was a wooden table, on which a well-dressed woman slowly walked up.
In the puzzled eyes of everyone, she took a deep breath, and after glancing at the room next to the courtyard, the woman slowly spoke: "I am Xiang Jin, the host of this auction, and I would like to greet you from the family." ”
"The sign with your last name written on it in your hand means that if you have something you like, you can hold up the sign after I finish the price."
"Raising a sign once means increasing the price once, and the price of each increase cannot be less than 100 gold."
"Is there anything else you don't understand?"
The various family members sitting on the chair were a little shocked by the hundred gold, but no one said anything, after all, it was not easy to get this opportunity.
Seeing that none of them spoke, Xiang Jin nodded with satisfaction, and there was no longer the nervousness in his heart just now.
She tapped the small wooden hammer on the table, and immediately someone walked in with a contract, and on a wooden board she drew some detailed information about what kind of factory it was, as well as its floor plan and floor space.
"Okay, the first auction item is a glass factory outside the city, and the starting price is 5,500 gold."
"Everyone starts bidding, and each sign represents a price increase of 100 gold."
"Let's go!"
Someone immediately raised a card, and Xiang Jin also took the opportunity to say: "The Yao family has increased the price once, 5,600 gold." ”
Seeing this, others also began to raise their cards, and it was obvious that people knew how profitable this glass factory was, and they began to increase the price.
Ying Zheng, who was sitting in the room, looked at the auction outside through the glass, and his eyes were full of admiration.
Next to Ying Zheng, Li Si and Fusu were also sitting there, both staring intently at the situation outside.
Especially when they heard those people increase the price, they all understood what Ran Fang meant, if this price was directly bought by people, I am afraid that they would not pay such a high price.
Just as the first round of the Han family was coming to an end, Ying Zheng looked at Ran Fang and asked, "Do you have a favorite person in this glass factory?" ”
Ran Fang shook his head, pushed a book in his hand in front of Ying Zheng, and said, "This is the list of families who came to participate in the auction, as well as some basic information about them. ”
"Your Majesty, please."
Taking over the list, Ying Zheng just glanced at it casually, and he believed Ran Fang.
These people in this auction are carefully selected by Ran Fang, no matter who these factories are, he will not care.
While looking through the list, Ying Zheng asked seemingly casually: "I heard that Su Yun of Su Mansion is now in your mansion?" ”
A wry smile appeared on Ran Fang's face, knowing that this kind of thing would definitely spread.
He wasn't surprised that Ying Zheng would know, but he didn't expect Ying Zheng to ask so directly, instead of investigating privately, which made him very satisfied.
"I didn't expect Your Majesty to know about this, it's really a good thing not to go out, and evil things to go a thousand miles."
"Indeed, that Su Wan has entered the minister's mansion."
"It's not the minister's intention, it's Su Zhi who sent people on purpose."
"But it has nothing to do with this auction, Su Fu can participate in this auction, it is indeed their own strength."
The book in Ying Zheng's hand happened to turn the page about Su Fu.
He glanced down at the record about Su Mansion and the reason for being selected this time, and understood that there was indeed no problem with this matter.
But thinking of people's evaluation of Ran Fang's lust, he couldn't help but speak: "The widow believes in you. ”
"It's just that about Su Yun's matter, how are you going to deal with it?"
