Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Story of the Jade Pendant
Roughly understanding the cause and effect, Chen Bai smacked his tongue, and Qingqi, who had a surprising brain circuit, said: "Buy this thing Lao Shoufu back, if the queen mother really gave birth to a son and a half daughter, I will be obedient, then I will not become a child boy?"
Xing Ti glanced at Chen Bai and said, "Are you still a child?" ”
Liu Ming said with a smile: "But if that's the case, the dead sunspot has really done a good thing." ”
In the audience, the pair of 'sending off the unicorns' have already shouted a high price of 40,000 taels and four times the starting price.
It should be said that everyone in the audience knows that the people in the eighth room, especially the first room, have a noble status and should not be offended. But this kind of place does not involve personal grievances, and in the end, it is still who has more money, and is willing to spend money, so it seems narrow-minded.
I saw that in the A-shaped room, an old man with white hair and beard slowly picked up the cup, and said to the entourage behind him in a vicissitudes of voice: "Call 50,000 taels directly, and forget it if you can't take it." ”
"Yes, fifty thousand taels. ”
Then I saw the entourage say to Zhao Haiming with an embarrassed face: "But, master, let's bring 40,000 taels, will it be ...... to shout 50,000 taels?"
Zhao Haiming put down the cup and said, "It's okay, my old face is still worth 10,000 taels." ”
Liu Ming looked at Zhao Shoufu and an unknown guest in the field who were shouting for the price, Liu Ming frowned slightly and said, "It seems that the Shoufu Dafu pair of 'Sending Zi Qilin' can't be taken!"
Xing Ti didn't know much about this, and asked, "How can you see it?"
"Look, Lord Xing, just asked for 40,000 yuan, and Lord Shoufu directly called for 50,000, making it clear that he wanted to directly overwhelm the opponent, so that the opponent would give up. also directly showed the range that he could accept, if the other party felt that the price of this 'sending a child unicorn' was worth more than 50,000 yuan, then the first assistant would definitely not be able to take it. ”
Listening to Liu Ming's words, Xing Ti nodded thoughtfully, but Chen Bai looked a little annoyed, and said endlessly: "Who is in the field, is it possible that the family is going to cut off children and grandchildren, and fight with Lord Shoufu." It's over, it seems that Lao Tzu, the boy who sent the child, can't do it. ”
Sure enough, as soon as they finished speaking, before Kotoxin counted to three, the person who bid with Shousuke in the middle of the field directly quoted the huge amount of "60,000". However, this person was also polite, and ordered his entourage to loudly accuse the guests of the A room, but this thing is bound to be obtained, and I really like it.
The angry teeth of the attendant in the A-shaped room itched: "It's really annoying, I don't know who is so ignorant." ”
Zhao Haiming waved his hand and said: "Everyone has their needs, there is no reason to let me, not to mention that people specially apologize in front of so many people, but they are not people who are specially looking for trouble." ”
Xing Ti and Chen Bai secretly said that it was a pity, and Xing Ti couldn't help but scold Chen Bai and said: "What are you sorry for, just take it back and send it to Lao Shoufu, or you take a picture, I will come out with 10,000 taels." ”
Chen Bai smiled bitterly: "Old criminal, I can't break the rules, since this auction item is on the table, there is no reason to take it down." And I can't participate in the auction myself, this is cheating, and I don't want to mix it up in the future. If you really want to do this, you can take a picture of this thing. ”
After the punishment is summed up, I don't have all the money in my belongings, and I can't do it if I have money, isn't that a bribe?
"Sixty thousand taels at a time!"
While Qin Xin was counting, Liu Ming tapped lightly on the table, as if he was making some important decision.
"Sixty thousand taels twice for bidding!"
Just when Qin Xin was about to open his mouth to call for the third time, Liu Ming opened his mouth and said, "Fei Xiong is bidding." ”
I saw Fei Xiong hurriedly get up and shout outside: "One hundred thousand." ”
Xing Ti swallowed his saliva, he really deserves to be the master of the first chamber of commerce in the world, the pattern is big, and he has to take how many years he has to take 100,000 miles to get it together.
Chen Bai looked at Liu Ming happily, and the silver with all the white flowers went directly to his pocket in the end.
Immediately, the audience was in an uproar, and I didn't know which rich man was so arrogant. You must know that the reserve price of this pair of 'sending a child unicorn' is only 10,000, which has far exceeded its own price, at most it is a good meaning. The heart of the piano, which was about to be called out three times, was instantly pushed back by the 100,000.
After a while, the man below still insisted on bidding, "110,000." ”
What Liu Ming wanted, as long as the money could solve it, it was naturally not a problem, Fei Xiong immediately shouted: "150,000." ”
The meaning is very clear to tell you, the gentleman B room, not bad money, today this pair of 'send a son unicorn' is bound to win, you don't have to fight.
Sure enough, the man below died down and stopped bidding, and finally the pair of 'sending a son unicorn' belonged to Liu Ming.
Fei Xiong also didn't forget to sue the person below, after all, the Wantong Chamber of Commerce has always paid attention to making money in harmony, and he has always followed Liu Ming to do things, so he naturally knows the rules.
"Wait for a new face to send this pair of 'Sending Zi Kirin' to Shousuke-sama, don't say that I sent it. Liu Ming didn't forget to take care of Fei Xiong.
"Yes, I'll do it next. Then Fei Xiong took the hat and took the door number of the B-shaped room and went to the back of the auction table.
Xing Ti couldn't help but praise: "President Liu is so generous, this person and ordinary people really can't compare." ”
Liu Ming said with a smile: "My father and my ancestors both said that those who do business must not only be able to make money, but also be able to spend money to earn more money and last for a long time. ”
Xing Ti deeply agreed with what Liu Ming said, isn't it an intricate relationship that is maintained by this money, according to the heart of Lord Shoufu, sooner or later he will definitely know who sent it, and spending money to earn a favor between Lord Shoufu and the queen in vain, it can't be lost. If this 'Sending Zi Qilin' really works, won't there be one more favor from the Emperor Qian, killing three birds with one stone.
Chen Bai couldn't help sighing: "Okay, it has nothing to do with me now, the favor has been bought by Young Master Liu for 150,000 taels, but fortunately, there is still money to be made." ”
Xing Ti and Liu Ming laughed, and they didn't bother to talk to Chenbai.
After a while, Fei Xiong came back and told Liu Ming that the matter had been done.
In the A-shaped room.
The entourage saw a box sent by the Jiang Gang, and opened it to see if it was the pair of 'Sending Zi Qilin' that his master wanted.
couldn't help exclaiming: "Who is so willing, the 150,000 taels of silver will be spent and bought and given away." ”
Zhao Haiming looked at the pair of 'sending Zi Qilin' suspiciously: "Do you know who sent it?"
The attendant shook his head and said, "I don't know, I just said that it was given to Shousuke-sama, and I didn't say anything about the rest." Just now, the little one also inquired about the people in the B room, but unfortunately they found nothing, and they didn't know who it was. ”
Zhao Haiming thought for a while and said: "Okay, I've been an official for decades, and it's the first time I took something that wasn't my own, so I put it away, and went back to the palace to give it to the queen." ”
"Yes, sir. The entourage was happy for the master, and he put it away with joy.
Of course, this is just a small climax at the beginning of the jade auction, so that everyone here will not be so boring.
After that, Shousuke-sama took two more favorite gadgets one after another, but no one was too much of an argument.
Then, every few pieces later, there will be a boutique that will make everyone's eyes shine, and of course, there will be some things that are not lacking in fine products, so that the "pick up a leak" here is happy.
The pastries and tea on the table also had special people come forward to replace them, which also made these people very satisfied with the Jiang Gang's work, at least they were very good at it, and they didn't care about those small profits.
But how did they know that Chen Bai was going to be happy in the B-shaped room, watching the objects sell one by one, not to mention how happy they were.
But I didn't expect that there would be something in the back that would interest Xingti.
"Below we are auctioning a jade pendant printed with a butterfly, which is not very valuable in itself, but it is very collectible, especially for people who have their own love. According to legend, this jade pendant is only half of it, and there was originally a young talent named Liang Shanbo, and there was a strange woman named Zhu Yingtai who dressed as a man......"
In this way, Qin Xin told the tragic love story of Liang Zhu compiled by a storyteller, and talked about it until it moved the world, and both turned into butterflies and danced to the sky to become immortals, and this jade pendant is a token of love for Shuangshuang, and it is with the blessing of this jade pendant that the two can finally be together.
I have to say that Qin Xin's voice was full of emotion, which caused many young masters and daughters present to have tears in their eyes. is more emotionally related to the fact that he and his other half have the wrong door and the wrong household and can't stay together for the rest of his life, why he doesn't have such a touching love story.
Qin Xin gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said: "Qin Xin wishes the guests of this jade pendant to find the other half as soon as possible, if you are lucky enough to collect the other half and give it to your lover, maybe you will be blessed by God." The auction starts now, starting at 3,000, and the price increase is not less than 200 taels each time. ”
"I said, dead sunspot, you really put in a lot of effort, I think this jade pendant is worth five hundred taels to death. "Liu Ming really didn't expect Chenbai's heart to be so black, this is to deceive those crazy men and women as fools.
Chen Bai said with a smile: "I can't say that, just asking a 'everyone' to make up this story cost me fifty taels of silver." Besides, my land, repairs, tea and snacks, and manpower are all expenses. I don't force this kind of thing to buy and sell, you love what I want, you see that someone is bidding!"
"Three thousand two hundred taels!"
"Three thousand four hundred taels!"
Liu Ming looked at the stunned Xing Ti and didn't speak, a little puzzled, "Lord Xing, Master Xing." ”
Xing Ti came back to his senses, as if he had something on his mind, and said, "Ah, it's nothing, just think of something." ”
Chen Bai asked with a look of surprise: "I said that the old punishment, I don't know that it is you in the story, but you haven't turned into an immortal." ”
After saying that, Chen Bai didn't forget to touch Xing Ti to take a look, and Xing Ti pushed Chen Bai's hand away: "Go while playing." ”
Chen Bai laughed and retracted his hand after hearing it, Xing Ti shouted directly: "Five thousand taels." ”
That almost shook Liu Ming and Chen Bai's jaws to the ground.
"I said old punishment, isn't it, which woman are you really in love with, buy this?" Chen Bai looked at Xing Ti like a fool, and even wanted to touch Xing Ti to see if he had a fever.
"Five thousand taels once!"
Until Qin Xin shouted five thousand two or three times, no one bid again, then this jade pendant naturally became the bag of the torturer.
Of course, Qin Xin didn't forget to say: "Congratulations to the distinguished guests of the B-shaped room for their beloved things, and I wish the lovers to become married." ”
Even some of the crazy men and women below felt that the person who was asking for the price in the B room was really a man of temperament, and they spent a lot of money for the beauty, and they all threw admiring glances at the B room, and they couldn't help but be ashamed, this is really reasonable and can't be explained, but fortunately I don't know who I am.
A small episode, and the auction will be in full swing after that.
In the B-shaped room, even Liu Ming couldn't help but ask curiously: "Could it be that Lord Fei is ...... criminal?"
Xing Ti shook his head with a wry smile and said, "What kind of person does President Liu look like to me?"
Liu Ming nodded and didn't ask more, but Chen Bai nodded and interjected: "I think some people are serious on the surface, but behind their backs, they may be more angry than anyone else." ”
The whole thing is to grit his teeth and raise his anger, and he can't wait to tear Chen Bai's mouth apart.
However, after a while, someone brought the torture to take a jade pendant, and Fei Xiong took it at the door and presented it to the torture.
Xing Ti took it in his hand and frowned and measured it carefully, this time Chen Bai and Liu Ming did not bother, obviously Xing Ti bought it for other reasons, just look at his more serious and serious expression.
Xing Ti touched the jade pendant in his hand and looked at it, and then asked, "Chenbai, you said before that where did you get this batch of jade." ”
"In addition, the mess of herbs and Shu embroidery before was all traded with the people over there in Nanshu. Then Chen Bai added: "By the way, according to my judgment at the time, it is more likely that there is a big official in the Nanshu Imperial Court who is losing money, otherwise this money-making thing will not be able to fight with me." ”
Xing Ti nodded, "That's basically eight or nine." ”
Chen Bai leaned over and picked up the butterfly-shaped jade pendant in the torture hand, flipped it over and looked at it, but he didn't see any clues. "Isn't it just an ordinary jade pendant, you can see something. ”
It doesn't hurt to say it after thinking about it, after all, these two are not outsiders, "Do you know why Ji Qingli, the director of the Law Department six years ago, suddenly left the Law Department?"
Chen Bai shook his head, saying that he didn't know, but Liu Ming said with some uncertainty: "Isn't it rumored that Ji Qing left his hometown after returning from illness and resigned from the post of director of the law department? ”
Liu Ming vaguely remembered this statement, but because of Ji Qingli's departure, Deputy Director Ji Huo was unwilling to take over, and there was no suitable candidate for the imperial court for a while, and the entire law department seemed to have disappeared from the public eye for three years.
Until three years ago, the young Xing Ti appeared out of nowhere, and the martial artist who had not yet reached the Liangyi Realm had the grace of Emperor Qian, and took over the law department in one fell swoop, and the Xing Ti was fully responsible.
It was in the past three years that the law firm returned to the field of vision.
Xing Ti shook his head, and then slowly told the two of them the reason, but it was better not to say more and more, and the court didn't leak it out more or less because it cared about face.
