As a local snake, Lin Fengjin naturally obtained the regulations for the sales meeting of Xiangfan Bank early. This sales meeting will last for a full ten days. Why will it last so long? That's because the first seven days have been closed.
It's a tasting.
Because the items for sale this time have been accumulated for three years, and it is not just Xiangfan Bank itself, there are also many people who have the need to sell, so in the first seven days, all the items participating in the auction will be taken out and displayed.
Let those who want to buy it take a close look at it to make sure it is what they need, and then put it up for auction in the last three days.
In this way, it can not only give buyers enough time to identify and even raise money, but also allows sellers to have sufficient display space for their goods, which is a win-win situation.
At this time, Lin Fengjin got a list of items currently on display. The classification alone was very amazing. First, it was divided into seven categories, namely:
There are seven categories: mounts, weapons, armors, magic weapons, medicines, materials, and unknown strange objects.
Then the auction items in these seven categories will be re-divided according to the previously assessed value, into four categories: priceless, fine, top quality, and ordinary.
Among them, a special area will be set aside for priceless auction items, which are heavily guarded. Those who want to enter and visit, in addition to paying a ticket of fifty taels of silver, must also pay a hundred thousand taels of silver per person.
Deposit/or goods of equivalent value.
And the deposit is strictly calculated per person. For example, Lin Fengjin paid a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver, but it was impossible to bring two servants in. If he had to bring people, he would have to take 300,000 taels of silver.
.
The same goes for high-quality, top-quality, and ordinary auction items. A deposit is required to enter, but the deposit will definitely be reduced accordingly. Ordinary auction items also require a deposit of fifty taels of silver and a ticket of one tael.
It is worth mentioning that all unknown rare objects are included in the top grade and will not be auctioned. Instead, they will be sold directly in stores, but the individual price of each unknown rare object is relatively expensive.
Yes, but buyers can also purchase multiple pieces at one time to spread the cost.
For example, an ancient tile whose age is difficult to determine may be priced at 500 taels of silver. But if you are willing to buy a few more unknown rare items priced at 500 taels of silver, it is likely that the price will be 1,000 taels of silver, three pieces, or even 2,000 taels.
Two pieces of silver, seven pieces, the more you buy, the more advantage you get.
Let me ask you, most of the people who come to the sales fair have traveled thousands of miles to attend. How can they not attend because of the ticket price? So I can only bite the bullet and pay.
This Xiangfan Bank has built such a large scale. Although it seems to be hard work, in fact, it makes a lot of money from the ticket money alone. It can be seen that Lin Fengjin is not the only one in this world who has economic acumen and can think of ways to make money.
of.
In fact, if Lin Fengjin asked himself if he could set up another Xiangfan Bank, he knew that he would not be able to do it, because his personal planning and coordination capabilities could not support such a huge economic consortium. It can be seen that there are masters in this world.
On the first day of the official start of the appreciation phase of the sales fair, Lin Fengjin happened to visit Qin Yong, a fellow minister in the Nanzheng officialdom. Although this fellow minister was forty years older than him, he
He was also a disciple of Wang Yangming, so he invited him to hang up a calligraphy and painting in his "Bu Yan Li".
Master Qin heard about Lin Fengjin from the other junior fellow apprentices and knew that this young junior fellow apprentice was really a popular figure in the sect. Even though he was a junior fellow apprentice, he still had to take care of him, so he could only agree with a wry smile.
So Lin Fengjin went to the sale the next day to see what was on sale. He was very familiar with the auction rules. He knew that the first seven days were for tasting, and the last three days were official.
It’s a show, so I’ll be there early in the morning and late in the evening, so I’m not in a hurry.
However, although the peak period of yesterday's crowd had passed, when Lin Fengjin rushed there at this time, he still felt that he was almost drowning in the sea of people. After finally getting in, Lin Fengjin relied on the help he got from Li Hu
VIP card, I finally wiped my sweat and went in through the side door.
This Xiangfan Bank has indeed done a good job in all kinds of details. After Lin Fengjin was led into a quiet room, he actually had the best Dahongpao to drink, and there was also a curl of sandalwood in the forbidden room.
The hustle and bustle outside has been swept away, and there is a young and beautiful maid waiting next to you, so you will not feel lonely at all.
Not long after, the beautiful lady steward hurried over, sweating slightly on her temples. When she saw Lin Fengjin, she was stunned and immediately smiled:
"I also said that the distinguished guest must be received by a young lady. It turned out to be Mr. Lin. Why hasn't he come to visit our store for so long? I heard that Mr. Lin spends money like water in Donglin Academy. A good horse with the blood of Pegasus said
Just behead it, if it is handed over to our bank to sell it, you can easily get three to four hundred thousand taels of silver."
Lin Fengjin was no longer a poor boy who had just come to Xiangdu. Although the affairs of Xiangfan Bank were kept secret, the relationship network he had laid out at this time was also extraordinary, like a spider web, involving all kinds of things.
More than a hundred court officials, large and small, were recruited, and such intensity of detection was by no means easy.
Therefore, of course we know that the internal principals of Xiangfan Bank are usually retired high-ranking officials and their family members. For example, this middle-aged beautiful woman named Wang should be the concubine of the previous Minister of Household Affairs.
So Lin Fengjin smiled and said tit for tat:
"Hu Shangshu is in good health. He is eighty-five years old this year. He should eat less honey to avoid being in bad health."
The face of the beautiful woman in charge suddenly froze, and her charming smile became very unnatural. She never expected that Lin Fengjin's intelligence sources were so accurate, and she could even investigate her own family background.
Clearly, clearly.
Lin Fengjin didn't come here to make people angry, so he smiled and said:
"It's been three years since the last sale. I wonder what good things the bank has saved?"
Manager Wang immediately got out of the embarrassing situation and said with a smile:
"Then it depends on what Mr. Lin needs."
Lin Fengjin said:
"I need a handy weapon now, as long as it can be held with one hand. I am also interested in other protective treasures. I also have needs for any weird gadgets."
Manager Wang smiled and said:
"Master Lin has such a wide range of hobbies. It seems that he will take good care of the business of the shop this time."
Lin Fengjin said meaningfully:
"Then it depends on whether you have something that makes my heart move."
Manager Wang waved over a boy and said:
"Go and call Accountant Hu over."
After a while, Accountant Hu came over. He was a middle-aged scribe, tall and calm in temperament.
Manager Wang said:
"This accountant Hu has amazing eyesight. He participated in the appraisal and valuation of the weapons auction items. He is a talent we rely on very much."
Accountant Hu bowed slightly and said he didn't dare to take it seriously. Lin Fengjin saw that Accountant Hu was neither humble nor overbearing, and immediately knew that this person had a lot of skills, so he said:
"Are there any famous weapons among the sales this time?"
Accountant Hu said:
"There are many weapons. There are four weapons in the list of divine weapons. They are Kaitian ranked 53rd, Toushan Hanqiang ranked 67th, Yunfan ranked 71st, and Yunfan ranked 71st.
Fourteen’s golden spider silk whip.”
Lin Fengjin said:
"What kind of weapon is Kaitian?"
"One-handed axe." Accountant Hu said with all his family treasures: "The last master of Kaitian was Duogu, a big-headed man from Xirong. He had amazing powers. He held Kaitian in his left hand and his famous Qijue Shield in his right hand.
, one attack and one defense, and they have been rampant in the world for thirty years! If Duogu had not died back then, the throne of Xirong would probably have changed hands."
"This Qijue shield is divided into seven layers. The first layer is pure steel, the second layer is iron pine boards unique to the snowy peaks of the Tianshan Mountains, and the third layer is the specialty black stone slabs chiseled from Mount Kumgang in the Duogu territory.
The fourth layer is a vine shield made from century-old vines soaked in oil from the Nanzhao area. The fifth layer is a flesh and blood shield made of two slaves crushed alive by two stone slabs. The sixth layer is made of high-quality cotton from Guanzhong.
Come out, it’s a cotton shield pressed out after being soaked in water.”
"The real Qijue shield is a giant ice shield as tall as a person made by Duogu's wife Ma Wen using her ice witchcraft to freeze these six materials together. The six materials plus ice are so named.
As Qijue, the ice witch power attached to it can last for a month even in the scorching summer. Of course, the weight of this shield must be extremely terrifying, let alone carrying it into battle! Only Duo Gu's natural divine power can
Use it with ease and kill thousands of troops for an hour!"
Lin Fengjin was also very fascinated when he heard it, and couldn't help but said:
"How could such a fierce man lose all his weapons? Is there anyone who can break through the defense of his shield? In my opinion, even if a siege vehicle or trebuchet hits him head-on, it is probably difficult to defeat him, right? No.
That he was assassinated on his own territory?"
Accountant Hu shook his head and said:
"Duogu had no regrets before his death. He was killed in a head-on confrontation. The person who killed him was Shen Boyang, one of the seven generals of the David Dynasty. This man penetrated the Qijue Shield with one blow.
The second blow passed through the gap on the Qijue Shield and pierced Duogu's throat. Because the weapon Shen Boyang held was the same divine weapon as the snake-swallowing weapon! But Shen Boyang also spent a lot of energy in controlling the divine weapon. The next step was
After Ma Wen committed suicide and sacrificed his life, the breath turned into an ice demon and was swept into his body, and he turned into an ice sculpture three days later."
Lin Fengjin couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought about the situation at that time. On the battlefield where the sound of killing was loud, the violent wild man with natural supernatural power met the calm and decisive general. The two fought to the death. In the end, the wild man fell to the sky with a maniacal laugh.
Passed away, and the general turned into an ice sculpture and passed away suddenly! This is the heroic beauty of war, the beauty of killing, the beauty of cruelty! (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
