Chapter 444 Money is the easiest thing to get in this world
The auction started on time.
After a series of early rules explanations, products were finally put on the table.
At first, there were some products that Wangdelou collected himself... The people here are all big guys who have seen the world. Although the vases, jewelry and the like are exquisite in workmanship and shape, they are not attractive enough to them.
.
After selling a few items in a moderate manner, Mr. Cao, who had been paying close attention behind the scenes, saw that the atmosphere was a bit dull, so he asked people to omit some unnecessary items and directly gave them the items sponsored by Lu Yan.
After the auction host knocked the hammer, he said: "Everyone, next is the exquisite product sponsored by Lu Qiaoqi. Please wait and see!"
"Finally here!"
"Hurry up, we're just waiting for Lu Qianqi's good stuff!"
"Come on, come on, Lu Qiaoqi's product must be a top quality product!"
The atmosphere in the hall finally became lively, and even the curtains of the second-floor private rooms began to ripple.
"Everyone, please look!"
After the auctioneer finished speaking, a well-dressed maid carefully held out a plate.
On the plate is a very ordinary-looking blue shirt for scholars. Perhaps because of its age, it is slightly faded.
The maid held the plate and walked around in front of the crowd.
People stretched their necks to look and made various noises.
"this......."
"Don't tell me it was the clothes Lu Qiaoqi wore..."
"It seems to be quite interesting...what does Lu Qiaoqi mean?"
Everyone was a little confused, even Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, who were standing behind the curtain of the box, looked confused.
"Second brother, does Lu Qiaoqi have any special hobbies?" Cao Zhi always spoke freely, and he spoke out what he was thinking.
Unexpectedly, Cao Pi did not slap Cao Zhi on the back of the head this time, but replied thoughtfully: "Let's see first and then talk..."
After the maid finished speaking to everyone, the auctioneer finally introduced: "Gentlemen, this shirt is called Qingyuan, and it was accidentally acquired by Teacher Lu Qiaoqi when he was traveling around the country when he was young.
Qingyuan is not made of ordinary things. People who wear it will have clearer thoughts and stronger spirits..."
Before he finished speaking, various discussions began to buzz in the hall.
Most people were skeptical, but only a small number of people and the people in the box began to get excited. Is there really something with special effects? Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were also faintly excited.
"My thoughts will become clearer and my spirit will become more vigorous! Isn't this an artifact specially prepared for scholars like us!" Cao Zhi became excited and shouted loudly in the box: "Second brother, buy it! Buy it
!”
Cao Pi was naturally excited, but before he could speak, someone in the box opposite had already shouted out the price: "Ten taels of gold!"
"!!!"
The people in the box are indeed extraordinary, as soon as they exit the box, there are ten taels of gold!
"Gold, ten taels! Buy a piece of tattered clothes that I don't know if it is really effective?!" Even the auctioneer couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and secretly sighed in his heart: "What a rich man!"
As soon as the bidding appeared, the discussion in the hall immediately disappeared.
After all, they are all very noble people. Since they recognize the value of this item, then in all likelihood it is really special!
The people on the second floor are sure that this green shirt has special effects because they know that Cao Cao has a pendant called the Ningshen Jade, which has the effect of concentrating and calming the mind, and can also effectively help people resist the negative thoughts in their hearts.
mood.
Ever since Cao Cao got the Ningshen Jade pendant from Lu Yan, he has never had the headache again. Now Cao Cao regards the Ningshen Jade as a personal treasure. Whether he is taking a bath or doing homework, he will never leave it.
Half a step forward.
Although there are people with good reputations above, the auction has said that everyone can compete fairly.
So, someone in the hall couldn't help shouting the price: "Eleven taels of gold!"
When someone raised the price, the scene became heated. The auctioneer didn't even need to explain the minimum price of the increase. Anyway, everyone would increase the price by at least one tael of gold!
"Twelve taels!"
"Fifteen taels!"
"Eighteen taels!"
"..."
Although I don't know if this seemingly ordinary piece of clothing is really effective, but out of trust in Lu Yan and the affirmation of those "big people", there were continuous calls for price increases on the spot.
At this time, in the private room on the second floor that had been silent for a long time, someone finally called out the price again, "Fifty taels of gold!"
"Fifty taels! Hiss!"
How arrogant!
The current price is thirty-three taels, but unexpectedly someone shouted out fifty taels!
This sudden price increase is still a strong deterrent to everyone.
Cao Pi was about to call out the price when he heard someone next to him shout out fifty taels. But what hurt them more than the price was that the man's voice sounded unusually familiar.
Cao Zhi was dumbfounded. He looked at Cao Pi and asked, "Second brother...why is Uncle Zi Lian here too?"
"Uncle Clan has been in charge of the United Chamber of Commerce for many years and has a huge fortune. It's not surprising that he appears here." Although Cao Pi looked calm on the surface, he was filled with a sense of crisis in his heart.
Legend has it that Cao Hong's current net worth has been incalculable. Even Cao Hong himself cannot calculate how much money his family has...
The appearance of this kind of fighting chicken among local tyrants is a great threat to everyone participating in the auction!
Cao Pi thought for a while. Although Qingyuan's effect was good, it was not irreplaceable. "Mr. Lu's 'unparalleled treasure' has not yet appeared, so we don't have to compete with our uncle."
Cao Zhi was still a little unwilling, but he could only endure it.
"Fifty taels! First time!"
"Fifty taels! The second time!"
"Fifty taels! The third time!"
"make a deal!"
"Congratulations to the guest in Box 3 for taking a photo of the first treasure sponsored by Lu Xiuqi!"
"Wow!"
"What a generous act!"
Under the envious eyes of everyone, the maid directly sent the tray to box number three.
After Cao Hong got Qingyuan, he couldn't close his mouth with laughter, "I went to my husband countless times to buy some treasures for Zhen'er that can improve the effect of reading, but I was rejected by my husband many times... I didn't expect that today,
To be able to buy this kind of treasure at an auction for only fifty taels of gold is such a huge profit!"
Well, only fifty taels of gold... I'm afraid only you, Mr. Cao, can say it.
The first item sponsored by Lu Yan sold for a "sky-high price" of fifty taels of gold. So, are the prices of the treasures that appear later still low?
Mr. Cao didn't expect that Lu Yan's first item was sold for fifty taels of gold! According to the agreement, he had to take a 10% commission. Didn't he earn five taels of gold in vain?
"So excited, so excited! Making money can be so easy!!"
"Ho! Ho! Ho!"
"Dad! Dad! Don't get excited, be careful your body won't be able to bear it!"
Because he was so excited, Mr. Cao almost twitched.
Fortunately, his younger son Cao De and the specially hired doctors were always waiting for him. When something went wrong with Mr. Cao, everyone immediately started rescuing him, and then Mr. Cao was rescued.
However, Mr. Cao's first words after waking up were, "No problem, let's continue the auction! I can hold on!"
