Chapter 310 Foreigners intervene (Second update, asking for diamonds)

 In the Yanlai building, the auction of ice jade glazed bottles was full of twists and turns. Initially, everyone thought that the first item would be acquired by Li Xiaogong at a price of three hundred and fifty gold. However, someone came out halfway and called four people.

One hundred gold, this is forty thousand taels of silver.

Who is so arrogant to shout out such a price to challenge Li Xiaogong? Didn’t you see that Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde have ceased their activities? This is too disrespectful to the prince of Hejian County!

Luo Zhang was also a little surprised. Who was calling the price? Luo Zhang was not satisfied with the three hundred and fifty gold. According to his opinion, this thing would have to sell for seven or eight hundred gold at least. The price in front of him was far from that.

It met his expectations, but the one who raised the price was Li Xiaogong, so he had to give him some face, but he didn't ask anyone to raise the price, but someone raised the price, which made him happy, and he secretly thought that he had seen a good show.

Turning his eyes, Luo Zhang couldn't help but be startled when he looked at the person bidding.

I saw a short man sitting in a cubicle on the first floor, with a mustache on the tip of his nose and lips, his hair standing straight back, wearing a loose-fitting suit, and two men in black suits stood behind him.

A woman who is like a guardian.

"People from Dongying?"

Luo Zhang didn't expect that people from Dongying would sneak in here today and challenge Li Xiaogong to buy things. This was not just fun, but a lot of fun.

But when he opened the door to do business, Luo Zhang couldn't drive people away. No matter how good his relationship with Li Xiaogong was, business was business and favor was favor, just like his relationship with Wei King Li Tai. Brothers settled accounts clearly.

After coughing, Luo Zhang banged the hammer and said, "Someone offered four hundred gold. Is there any price higher than this?"

Before Luo Zhang could ask the question a second time, someone bid: "Four hundred and fifty gold!"

The bidder was not Li Xiaogong, but also came from a cubicle on the first floor. Luo Zhang was stunned again, a Tuyuhun person?

It's really lively today, and the Tuyuhun people actually joined in. Yes, that's great. I won't believe it unless I slaughter you bloody today.

The people in Dongying were obviously unhappy because the price was increased, because the person who increased the price was not a person on the fourth floor, but a person on the first floor like him. This was tantamount to stealing his limelight. This made

How could the people of Dongying endure it? Such exquisite ice jade and glazed wares should belong to the people of Dongying, and only the people of Dongying deserve to get this thing. As long as he can bring this thing back to Dongying and present it to the Lord, his status will definitely rise.

So this is something you can’t miss.

Without thinking, the Dongying people called out the price, "Five hundred gold!"

In the cubicle not far from the next door, several Tuyuhun people looked a little unkind. Although they didn't know who was challenging them, one thing is certain, that is, the person bidding the price was not the high-ranking official of the Tang Dynasty upstairs. This made them much more valuable.

The young man breathed a sigh of relief. This ice jade glass bottle was also a must-have for them. As long as they presented this thing to the Turkic Khan, they would be protected and would not have to worry about the threats from the Tibetan people and the Tang Dynasty people.

Thinking of this, several Tuyuhun people looked at each other, and an old man said: "Six hundred gold!"

The price was raised by one hundred gold, which is ten thousand taels. This was a huge deal, which made all the people of the Tang Dynasty look at them with suspicion. They also heard that the two bidders were not from the Tang Dynasty. For these outsiders, the Tang people had a special attitude.

With a sense of superiority, when they heard that these people were actually showing off their power in their territory, some people naturally couldn't stand it, and they raised their hands and shouted for higher prices.

"Six hundred and twenty gold!"

"Six hundred and fifty gold!"

"Seven hundred gold!"

Everyone was aggressive and did not give in at all. This made Luo Zhang very happy. This way he could make more money.

However, Li Xiaogong, who had previously raised the price, fell silent at this time and stopped raising the price. I don’t know whether it was because the price was too high or because he wanted to watch the show!

Li Xiaogong did not join, which made many people in Datang feel relieved. They could no longer restrain their hands and worry too much.

Of course, there are also discordant voices, some who cannot afford the price but are jealous, whispering below.

"How could Luo Zhang do this? If these things were auctioned away by people from Dongying or Tyuhun, wouldn't it be a loss to the Tang Dynasty? This kind of treasure can only belong to our Tang Dynasty. This auction should be stopped!"

"If you say stop it, stop it? Luo Zhang wants to sell it, what can you do?"

"This Luo Zhang is really a prodigal, a disgrace to the Tang Dynasty!"

"He's just a guy who's after money!"

It's okay for one or two people to mutter, but as time goes by, more and more people mutter, because the price at this time has exceeded a thousand gold, which is one hundred thousand taels of silver. For a piece of colored glaze that can only be seen but not eaten

For a device, it’s a sky-high price!

And the bidder was not from the Tang Dynasty, but from Dongying! This is why there were more murmurs.

Luo Zhang looked at these people who couldn't bear to talk about toothache and felt contempt in his heart. He turned a deaf ear to their words. Even His Majesty and Li Xiaogong didn't say anything. You are so stupid, you are a bunch of villains!

"Hahaha, only I, Dongying, can own this thing. Yours cannot!" The Dongying people said proudly, without caring about the feelings of the Tang people at all. Luo Zhang looked at him so arrogantly that he wanted to slap him a few times.

But Luo Zhang didn't do that. He had a better way to make this Dongying man cry so much that even his mother didn't recognize him.

Before the people of Tang Dynasty could fight back, someone started bidding again.

"Fifteen hundred gold!"

The bidders were the Tuyuhun people who had just ceased their activities. They were not intimidated by the fifteen hundred gold.

But before the Dongying people could continue shouting prices, another group of people in a cubicle not far away started shouting prices.

"Two thousand gold!"

Luo Zhang was stunned for a moment. Someone was interfering again? Who is so courageous to shout two thousand?

Looking around, Luo Zhang knew clearly that it was a group of Tibetan people who were bidding.

As soon as the two thousand gold was exported, it attracted the attention of all the people of the Tang Dynasty. Even the Dongying people who had clamored before did not care about it. The things did not belong to the people of Dongying, so how could the people of the Tang Dynasty care about it.

After the Tubo people started bidding, the expressions of the Tuyuhun people changed. They did not expect that the Tubo people would appear here and participate in the bidding of the ice jade and glazed ware.

As for why the Tubo people are asking for the price, the Tuyuhun people know it very well. They just don't want them to get this treasure and give them the opportunity to offer the treasure to the Turks. In this way, no one will help them, and the Tubo people can launch attacks on them.

Attack, invade their territory, and rob their cattle and sheep!

The Tuguhun people are quite familiar with this bidder. This person's name is Ludongzan. He is the prime minister of Tubo and Songtsan's right-hand man. When meeting Ludongzan here, the faces of these Tuguhun people are naturally not good-looking.

Dongzan is an old fox and is not easy to deal with. It seems that it will not be easy to obtain an ice jade glazed artifact today.

Someone in Yan Lai's building also knew Lu Dongzan. When he heard Lu Dongzan shouting the price, he was stunned. He smiled and said jokingly: "Lu Dongzan, why do you like this glassware too? Do you want to buy it?

Go back and burn the huofao for you?"

"Burning such a good thing to Huo Fao? That's really a cruel thing!"

"You don't understand this. This is a family custom. Only by burning the best things to Huo Fao can you get blessings!"

Listening to the teasing of everyone in the Yan Lai building, Luo Zhangna's eyes flashed. He didn't expect that the bidder actually said Lu Dongzan. As the saying goes, it's better to meet than to be famous. This old guy is famous and has a lot of history.

A person of small status.

Luo Zhang, who has read history, knows very well the purpose of this old guy coming to the Tang Dynasty.

According to later historical records, Lu Dongzan traveled to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty several times for only one thing, and that was to facilitate the marriage between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty, which was the marriage of Princess Wencheng to Tubo as legend has it in later generations.

The initiator of this incident was Lu Dongzan. Because Tubo married Princess Wencheng, Tubo learned a lot of advanced culture from the Tang Dynasty, and gained a lot of wealth from the Tang Dynasty, which made Tubo prosperous.

It developed so much that it later became a serious problem for Datang!

Seeing Lu Dongzan, Luo Zhang's mind naturally came to life. At this time, he was not a descendant, but a Tang Dynasty person. As a Tang Dynasty person, how could he watch Tubo become stronger and eventually become a threat to the Tang Dynasty?
