Chapter 21 Bidding
ps: Continue to thank the Taoist friends for their monthly passes.
The auction was the first time that Xia Guo had opened the world, and although Zhao Ran had clearly introduced the rules, the powerful and wealthy businessmen present still stared at the auction table with a wait-and-see attitude, their eyes full of curiosity.
This scene is also what Zhao Ran has long expected, everything needs to be the first person who eats crabs to appear, in order to be stable, this first person who eats crabs usually has to arrange acquaintances, and it is called "warm-up" if it sounds good, and it is not impossible to call it "support" if it is unpleasant.
Now Li Cunqi is playing such a role. However, it is not absolute, to say that he is a trust, and that he really wants to sell his goods today, which he has been betting on for more than three months, and has never found a market. Li Cunqi has a leather shop in Xingqing, but after selling it piecemeal for so long, this batch of leather goods has only been sold for less than 10%, and a large amount of silver has been backlogged, which makes him very distressed.
Liang Xingxia was familiar with him and knew his situation, and when Zhao Ran proposed to find a "trust", he immediately remembered this person. Li Cunqi heard that there was such an opportunity, where was he willing to let it go, and immediately came to the fart.
"Ladies and gentlemen, three months ago, the contemptible people went to Ganzhou and bought a thousand skins of Ganyang. You are all businessmen, and you know the benefits of caravans, so you don't have much to say. It's just that the amount is too large, and it can't be taken off for a while, and the contemptible people have an urgent need for silver recently, so they would rather lose their capital. The leather goods are displayed in the wing room on the east side of you, and someone must have seen it......"
After introducing his leather goods, Li Cunqi nodded to Liang Xingxia.
Liang Xingxia naturally played the role of auctioneer, standing behind a small table half a person high, holding up a small hammer. He slammed it into the copper plate on the table.
Hearing only the sound of "bang", Liang Xingxia said loudly: "Li Ji shop 1,000 pieces of Ganzhou sheepskin, after Jinbo auction house inspection, well-preserved, excellent leather. All of them are of the highest quality. If there is a defect, Jinbo Auction House guarantees a full refund. The market price is one tael or three dollars of silver per Ganzhou sheepskin, and the reserve price is 300 taels at a one-time auction today! ”
After Liang Xingxia finished shouting, the audience suddenly "buzzed". Everyone in the audience couldn't help but turn their heads and ears. This price is equivalent to less than 30% of the market price, which can be said to be very cheap, but it is required to be eaten at one time, and the amount is a bit large, but even so. It is also a very rare price.
A small half of the people present were wealthy businessmen, and they were immediately excited. The rest of the magnates also have some livelihood in their respective families, and they know some of the market, so they can't help but start thinking about it carefully.
It's just that this is the first time I've participated in an auction, and many people resist the urge to look around to see what others are doing.
Seeing that no one responded to the audience's discussions, Li Cunqi was a little anxious. He looked at Liang Xingxia, and Liang Xingxia motioned for him to be calm. Jinbo Auction House has been prepared for a long time, how can it be possible to let the first batch of auction items go unauctioned?
Someone in the audience finally held up a sign. This person's surname is Gao, and he is also the owner of a shop in Xingqing Mansion, but few people know that he is a distant cousin in Gao Ya.
Liang Xingxia immediately shouted: "The owner of the Gaoji shop on Beiya Street holds up a sign, three hundred taels of silver! Does anyone still increase the price? Six hundred taels of silver can buy a thousand pieces of sheepskin, do you have anyone to increase the price? Jinbo Auction House has already experienced leather goods." are all of the highest grade, if there is a defect. Full refund guaranteed!"
Liang Xingxia's reassurance added heavy weight to this batch of sheepskins. Immediately, some people couldn't help but try to raise their cards - as long as they buy it under 800 taels, they will definitely make a profit!
Liang Xingxia immediately shouted: "Fangdangbu Gu Le Lu Zefu bid three hundred and fifty taels! Does anyone still increase the price? Three hundred and fifty taels for the first time......
"Four hundred taels, four hundred taels for the first ......"
“...... Six hundred taels, six hundred and fifty taels, seven hundred taels! Seven hundred taels...... Seven hundred taels, the first time, seven hundred taels the second time...... Seven hundred and fifty taels, has anyone increased the price? Seven hundred and fifty taels for the third time!
Liang Xingxia was sweating profusely and smashed down with a hammer, announcing the success of the first batch of lots. Li Cunqi smiled happily, he spent less than two hundred taels in total on this batch of furs, which also included the carriages and horses and freight in it, and sold it in one fell swoop today, making a net profit of more than five hundred taels!
With the auction of the second and third batches of lots, the audience has been silent, everyone's eyes are staring at the auction table, constantly calculating, weighing, the people who bought are elated, the people who did not buy are either regretful or regretful, and the people who sell the goods are all dancing and excited.
Yeli Huaide also participated in an auction, he took a fancy to a Tang Dynasty hundred refining knife taken out by a certain broken nobleman, and after continuous bidding, he got it in his hand at a price of one hundred and sixty taels of silver. In addition to the steel knife he was very satisfied with, the most proud of the auction process, he enjoyed the feeling of pressing all the bidding opponents under him, looking at their depressed and depressed faces, Yeli Huaide couldn't help but want to look up to the sky and smile several times.
The first batch of salt, tea, porcelain, and silk sold by Cheng Kee shops from Daming was also auctioned off, with a total of 6,600 taels, 20% more than expected, which made Li Laoshi, the shopkeeper on the stage, smile. The second batch of commercial goods he brought back this time is still pressed in the warehouse, Zhao Ran means that the reserve price of the next auction will be set according to the auction price of the first batch of goods, and now it seems that the income will inevitably be further improved.
At the end of the auction, Liang Xingxia signaled everyone to be quiet, and after the audience was silent again, a beautiful woman dressed in grace and luxury took the stage.
Someone immediately recognized it: "Isn't this Ru Sanniang from Zuiyun Tower?"
Someone was confused: "Why did the Oiran of the Drunken Cloud Tower come?"
Someone thought about it: "Do you have to auction Ru Sanniang's night......?"
Only a few people noticed the delicate sandalwood box that Ru Sanniang was holding in her hand.
I only heard Liang Xingxia shouting: "This is the last lot in this auction, because the owner does not want to disclose his name, so he will not be announced." After verification by the Jinbo Auction House, there is no doubt that this item is genuine, and if it is false, we are willing to pay ten times the transaction price!
As Liang Xingxia's voice fell, everyone in the audience gasped, and in the astonishment of everyone, Ru Sanniang opened the sandalwood box with her bare hands, only to see a pill placed on the golden silk silk, exuding a faint and cold light.
Many people couldn't help but stand up and look at the stage with their necks stretched, while others simply got up and came to the stage and approached the pill in the viewing box.
These people are all powerful and wealthy businessmen who have seen the world, and many people have also seen Wushen pills, Guyuan Dan, Hehesan and other elixirs, but most of them are transmitted from Buddhism or rewarded by the royal family, and the real Daomen elixir rarely appears in the Xia Kingdom. Originally, the elixir was rare, not to mention from Da Ming, everyone couldn't help but beat their hearts faster when they looked at this heart-nourishing pill.
Liang Xingxia said: "Please also return to your seats...... The effect of the heart pill is outstanding, it can cure all kinds of diseases, and it can prolong life, and I don't need to say much about the wonders. This heart-nourishing pill is now auctioned, and the reserve price is one or two silver! It is a meeting gift for you to be given by the opening of the Jinbo Club today, and those who have won this auction will be personally served by Oiran Ru Sanniang tonight......!
"One hundred taels!"
"Two hundred taels!"
"Three hundred taels!"
"Four hundred taels!"
......
The bidding in the audience began to climb wildly, and in the wave after wave of shouting, Gao Yanei couldn't help but turn his body to Zhao Ran: "Brother Cheng, this thing was taken out by your Cheng Ji shop, right? Brother Cheng is really a big deal!"
Zhao Ran sighed: "The first shot is always going to be fired, so I can be regarded as letting go of the shop." ”
Seeing that Gao Yanei gritted his teeth and wanted to say something, he smiled slightly: "Yanei is not in a hurry, I have brought a total of two heart-nourishing pills to Xia Kingdom, and the remaining one is for Yanai to bring back, which is considered my dedication to Uncle Gao as a junior." ”
Gao Yanei's breath stagnated, stared at Zhao Ran for a long time, and suddenly smashed a punch on Zhao Ran's shoulder: "Good friend!"
turned his head and saw that the bidding in the audience was still not over-
"One thousand taels!"
"One thousand one hundred taels!"
