Chapter Twenty-Seven: Sniping Snow Lotus

ps: Thank you for the old Doudou and the intoxicating nostalgia for the reward, and thank you for the encouragement of the monthly passes.

Yeli Huaide's categorical tone surprised Zhao Ran, he looked at Gao Yanei, but found that Gao Yanei was very resolute in agreement. At this time, he didn't have anything to say, but he just guessed that the owner of Yanhui Restaurant, who fried Snow Lotus, might have a dislike with Gao Yanei and Yeli Huaide?

Anyway, Zhao Ran really couldn't refuse what the two people in front of him wanted to do, thought about it, and said, "Since that's the case, let's discuss it." According to my meaning, since we want to snipe Snow Lotus - well, if we don't let the other party succeed, we must include Snow Lotus in the management of the auction house, otherwise people will sell it privately in Xingqing Mansion, and we can't control it, although the price is not as high as the auction house, but it can always make a profit, right?"

After a pause, he saw that several people present were pondering, let them digest and digest it, and then continued: "...... Let him hype, don't worry about him, we will also receive a large number of goods in private. If you want to fry Gao Xuelian, the other party has to pay for your own money and repeatedly buy and sell in the auction house, let's not be greedy, smash him at a suitable high price, and then, let's put a message, just say that so-and-so will die after eating Snow Lotus, of course, we can't talk about the Snow Lotus in Kunlun Mountain, after all, this is what has been praised today, let's beat the side drum and talk about other Snow Lotus. Ladies and gentlemen, this thing of medicinal herbs really can't stand the toss, as long as the news is flying all over the sky, hehe...... Whoever has a snow lotus in his hand will admit that he is unlucky, and he will have to vomit blood!"

Zhao Ran's strategy was quite ordinary in the later generations, but in this world, it really shocked Gao Yanei and Yeli Huaide, and the two left the Jinbo Club with infinite admiration, and each went to prepare for the "sniper snow lotus".

Zhao Ran asked Liang Xingxia: "Old Liang, what do you mean by these two people?"

Liang Xingxia shook his head: "I can't guess either." I only know that Yanhui Restaurant is the property of the Li family at the entrance of Yanhui Lane. Could it be that they have a grudge against the Li family?"

Zhao Ran was puzzled: "Which Li family?"

"The mansion of Li Zhizhong, a member of the Zhongshu House, he also has a third brother, who is the commander of the army of the Right Wing Chaoshun Supervisor Army in Xingqing. The Chaoshun army was a subordinate army of the Tuoba Department, and they were all sons of the Han people. By the way, these two brothers are also your Mingren. He defected to my dynasty more than 20 years ago. ”

Six hundred years ago, the conflict between Buddhism and Taoism caused many Han Chinese in the interior of the Central Plains to migrate to the Xia Kingdom, Tibet, Uighurs and even further Western Regions with Buddhism, relying on the support of Buddhism to take root in these places. There are also many Han people who left the Ming Dynasty for various reasons and came to the "foreign land" called in the Central Plains to survive. They were either dissatisfied with the Daomen, or violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty, or were taken captive here during the border wars.

There are still a few people who feel that their talents can be buried and cannot be reused by the Ming Dynasty. So they fled here on their own initiative in order to have a promotion, and usually most of these people are indeed talented and highly valued by Western countries. The Lee brothers are among them.

Li Zhizhong and Li Liangfu were originally from Chengdu Prefecture, and they were two partial brothers in the Li family in Chengdu. Li Zhizhong has been reading poetry and books since he was a child, and he is full of wealth. When he was young, he won the first case of the hospital examination, but it was a pity that he hit the wall again and again in the township examination, and he was ruined for ten years with the fame of a showman.

Twenty years ago, Bingchen Ke Township Examination. Li Zhizhong easily got his wish, but it coincided with the outbreak of the science field fraud case in Sichuan Province, and Li Zhizhong, who was accidentally implicated, was removed from his reputation and was not allowed to enter the examination room again for the rest of his life.

In desperation, he eloped with his cousin Li Liangfu to the Xia Kingdom and joined the curtain of Li Qing, the deputy privy envoy at that time. Later, he was gradually reused and was recommended as an official. All the way up, so far he is a member of the Chinese Scholars. His younger brother worshipped Li Qing as his teacher. He was very loved by Li Qing and stood out in the Iron Harrier cavalry, and before Li Qing died, he mastered the power of the Iron Harrier. The two brothers can be described as the powerful representatives of the Han people in the Xia Kingdom.

Speaking of the Ming and Xia wars, in fact, it was actually these Han people who resolutely fought in the Xia Kingdom, and the nobles of the eight departments of the party were much milder in their attitude towards the Ming Dynasty. This is also the reason why Zhao Ran is more willing to deal with the party nobles after coming to Xingqing, in addition to reducing the danger of his exposure, he has a certain rejection of these "traitors" from the heart.

Hearing that the hype of Kunlun Snow Lotus was likely to be the Li Mansion in Yanhui Lane, he became interested in the matter of "sniping Snow Lotus" and increased his attention to this matter.

With Gao Yanei, the largest snake in Xingqing Mansion, and controlling the platform of Jinbo Club, Kunlun Snow Lotus's hype progress can't be hidden from him. Gao Yanai and Yeli Huaide were very concerned about the progress of the Snow Lotus hype, and discussed with Zhao Ran several times to discuss countermeasures.

On this day, Liang Xingxia Xingchong rushed to Zhao Ran: "Brother Cheng, the auction house has received the first auction record of Kunlun Snow Lotus today, with sixteen leaves, eighty flowers, and a reserve price of three hundred and twenty taels." ”

In the time and space where Zhao Ran came, the medicinal effect of Snow Lotus can only be said to be ordinary, but in this world, it is indeed a good medicine, especially the older the Snow Lotus, the greater the effect. The most common sixteen-leaf snow lotus is usually about two taels of silver, if it is an eight-leaf snow lotus, the price is doubled, and if it is a four-leaf snow lotus, the price is about ten taels per flower. As for the two-leaved snow lotus, it is difficult to see it on the market, and the further leafless snow lotus is the category of elixir, which is rare in the world.

Zhao Ran nodded, it seemed that the other party was ready to make a move, so he asked Liang Xingxia to invite Gao Yanei and Yeli Huaide immediately, and the four of them gathered in the hall again, touching their heads and discussing.

"The reserve price of the first auction was equivalent to four taels of silver each, which is equivalent to doubling the price. The other party is learning from us, and will never be satisfied with just doubling the profits, otherwise it will be impossible to gain and lose such a big battle. From this point of view, the expected shipment price of the other party may be more than 20 taels per flower. ”

"I have purchased more than 600 snow lotuses here, but only 20% of the Kunlun snow lotus, and Yeli has also bought more than 300 of them, of which the Kunlun snow lotus accounts for 10%, I don't know what about our club?" Gao Yanei asked.

Liang Xingxia said: "The club has collected more than 500 flowers, and there are not many Kunlun Snow Lotus. ”

Except for Zhao Ran, the other three people were worried about this, the most important Kunlun Snow Lotus is not much, what will be used to smash the plate at that time?

Zhao Ran originally had the idea of using other snow lotuses to pretend to be Kunlun snow lotus, but unfortunately he dispelled it once he understood it. The petals of Kunlun Snow Lotus are pure white, and the other Snow Lotus have their own variegated colors, which are easy to identify.

Zhao Ran asked Gao Yanei and Yeli Huaide about the purchase price, and then made a decision: "Since this is the case, let's do it separately." They fry their Kunlun Snow Lotus, and let's take advantage of this shareholder wind to fry our Snow Lotus. Yanai is still responsible for spreading the news in the market, well, to the effect that other snow lotus is also a good thing, remember not to slander Kunlun snow lotus, that is what has been praised today. ”

Gao Yanei smiled: "Don't worry, I have a number." ”

Zhao Ran said: "On the day when the other party auctioned Kunlun Snow Lotus, we will also auction our Snow Lotus, but don't be too greedy at the reserve price, don't overshadow Kunlun Snow Lotus, and roughly maintain it at fifty percent of Kunlun Snow Lotus." The same is true for each auction in the future, this Lao Liang must operate well, we implement the pegging price, no matter what the price of Kunlun Snow Lotus is each transaction, our Snow Lotus is fifty percent of it. ”

Liang Xingxia was a little confused: "Why is this?"

Zhao Ran explained: "The price is lower, of course the income will be less, but the risk will also be smaller. If I'm not mistaken, Kunlun Snow Lotus has been monopolized by the opponent...... Well, the monopoly is controlled by them, just like the little marquis sells dromedary camels. We can't monopolize the purchase of Snow Lotus, what we can do is to try to sweep the goods in Xingqing Mansion in the short term, which is risky, in case of an accident, our losses will be less. ”

Liang Xingxia's face was abrupt, Gao Yanei was thoughtful, and Yeli Huaide continued to be dazed......

Zhao Ran said again: "The most important thing is to create a psychological hint by keeping an eye on the price of Kunlun Snow Lotus, so that businessmen think that there is a close linkage between the two, and the price of Kunlun Snow Lotus will go up, and the price of other Snow Lotus will also go up......

Liang Xingxia was full of admiration, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but excuse himself: "When the prices of other snow lotus drop, the price ......of Kunlun snow lotus will also fall!

Zhao Ran smiled: "Congratulations, Brother Liang, you can already answer." ”

Liang Xingxia: "......"

Gao Yanei stroked his palm and smiled, Yeli Huaide seemed to understand whether he understood or not.

Zhao Ran said: "You don't have to worry too much, although we have less Kunlun Snow Lotus in our hands, we can buy it." In the next auction, in addition to carrying the snow lotus in our hands, try to arrange people to eat all the Kunlun snow lotus released by the other party, and when necessary, we can raise the price, as long as it is below six taels of silver, we will eat as much as we want, until the Kunlun snow lotus in our hands reaches six hundred. ”

Gao Yanei couldn't help it, and asked: "We eat so many goods, and when the price comes down, we can't sell them, isn't it a loss?"

Zhao Ran said: "Our entry is on top of other snow lotuses, and the purpose of eating Kunlun snow lotus is to smash the plate." And as long as we sell half of it for more than twelve taels of silver when we smash the market, the principal will be returned. Even if we can't sell a single one, we will only lose 3,600 taels at most. It's just a fraction of what we've earned on other Snow Lotus. Then again, if we don't smash the plate, we can also make a lot of ...... on Kunlun Snow Lotus."

Before he finished speaking, Gao Yanei said: "It doesn't matter if you lose points, you must smash it!"

Yeli Huaide deeply agreed with Gao Yanai's words.

Zhao Ran sighed and said, "Okay, since that's the case, let's smash it, but the chronological order must be grasped." First sell eighty percent of the other snow lotus in our hands, and then release the news to spread the rumor that the snow lotus has cured the dead. Then we use the remaining 20% to smash the price of other snow lotuses down. Correspondingly, the Kunlun Snow Lotus in our hands was divided into six parts, and the auction was auctioned in turn, each time the asking price was lower than the other, forming a sell-off panic of the Kunlun Snow Lotus. With such a two-pronged approach, Snow Lotus is finished. After this rumor is dispelled, I'm afraid it will be next year......" (To be continued)
