You haven't said anything about this auction yet, just drink?
When everyone took the small wine cup in their hands, there was a black line all over it.
Is this wine cup too mini?
Doll version?
Not even a sip of wine.
"Everyone!"
"When you come to our Yueyan Restaurant today, don't say anything. It's all in the wine. Let's do it!"
As Lao He spoke, he impatiently drank the wine in his hand.
Then he made a series of unfinished indecent sounds.
Everyone rolled their eyes in unison.
I'm afraid this old man has some serious illness.
Isn’t it just a sip of wine?
Have we never drank?
Everyone drank the wine in their hands with contempt, but as soon as the wine entered their mouth, everyone was stunned.
Immediately afterwards.
"Oh~~"
"Ouch~~"
"Ah~~"
Waves of indecent sounds emerged uncontrollably from everyone's throats.
At this time, outside Yueyan Restaurant, the wealthy businessmen and servants of the aristocratic families were waiting outside.
They need to guard the money and be on standby at any time. When their master auctions something, they will go in and pick up the goods with the money.
Originally, everyone was waiting quietly by the carriage.
But for some reason, I suddenly heard bursts of indescribable sounds coming from inside.
Everyone outside looked at each other.
I'll be a good boy!
What is going on?
Could it be said that after they entered, they were all doing something for the collective?
No wonder the door was closed just now.
But there are so many people inside at the same time, what kind of scene should this be?
The people outside shook their heads in unison, not daring to continue thinking about it.
…
At this time, everyone in the room was excited.
"You can get as much wine as you want. I bought them all!"
"Fart, Liu, how much are you worth? I'm telling you, I like this wine very much. Are you trying to steal it from me?"
"Ahem, this... this good man, I dare to ask how much of this wine is left. I want to buy some. The price is not an issue!"
"Yes, this wine is simply the best wine I have ever drunk. There has never been any other wine that can compare with it."
"..."
Seeing everyone's reactions and listening to everyone's words, Lao He felt like crying.
Before this, he had a bet with Zhang Bao.
In Lao He's opinion, how could there be a fool who would pay one hundred taels for a jar of wine?
But looking at this posture now, I am afraid that the fool is not half-hearted, and he is going to lose...
no!
I have to think of a way!
If I lose the bet, I won't be able to drink as much as I want in the future.
Old He gritted his teeth.
"Shut up, everyone!"
"What a ghost!"
"This is the kind of wine that is being auctioned today. Starting now, the base price is five hundred taels of silver per jar!"
“If you like it, buy it or not!”
Lao He directly raised the starting price from fifty taels to five hundred taels, a tenfold increase.
According to Lao He's idea, spend five hundred taels to buy a jar of wine?
Then I guess our ancestors could lift up the coffin boards and come out to clean up these wasteful things.
really.
After Lao He said this, everyone fell silent.
Although they also know that it is good wine, even if you are dragon urine, it is not worth five hundred taels of silver a jar.
Five hundred taels of silver can buy several restaurants like this!
But the question is, can we go back empty-handed?
How will I explain it when I go back?
He said that there was an auction of wine at five hundred taels per jar, which was too expensive and he was reluctant to buy it.
Then you won’t be laughed at to death?
Mudd!
Do you want money or face?
Of course it’s about face!
Everyone was struggling with pain in their hearts.
Lao He looked at the expressions on everyone's faces and felt happy.
If there is no one to auction, then you have nothing to say. Let alone a hundred taels of silver, you don’t even have anyone to buy it. If you don’t lose, who will lose?
At this time, Lao He had already begun to plan the dishes to go with tonight's drinks.
The crystal lotus root is a must, and the braised chicken feet, don't tell me, after eating it with the young master last time, it was really delicious...
At this time, Zhang Bao, who was in the next room, twitched the corners of his mouth fiercely. This Uncle He is playing dirty tricks!
You only get five hundred taels for this, which is a bit of a cliffhanger.
Zhang Bao was very helpless.
"Ahem, since there is no -"
"I want to buy ten!"
Lao He just announced the breakup.
A fat man stood up. This man was the largest cloth merchant in Heyang County and the head of the Kong family.
Lao He's eyes almost popped out of his head.
Damn it!
Ten jars of wine are equivalent to five thousand taels of silver!
These five thousand taels are enough for a small-scale battle.
You actually bought ten jars of wine?
Prodigal, Wori!
Lao He almost cursed!
"Are you sure?"
"Ten jars of wine are equivalent to five thousand taels of silver."
Lao He asked stammeringly from above.
"right!"
"Quick, quick, quick, I'll go out and ask someone to bring money in!"
The head of the Kong family said impatiently.
For him, let alone five hundred taels this time, even if it was one thousand taels, he still had to take the things back.
In the past few days, ever since I got Zhang Bao's invitation, I have been shouting at the door of Meng's house.
I even had several fights with the Meng family.
This time I came to the auction just to feel proud and to surpass the Meng family in one fell swoop.
How can money be as important as face?
Besides, this wine is definitely the best wine I have ever drunk so far. Just talking about the punch, it is quite extraordinary.
Maybe even the emperor has never drank it.
So the head of the Kong family made a quick decision and immediately took down the wine among the first batch.
When everyone saw it, they were a little panicked.
I didn't expect this old Kong to be so decisive.
After all, he is worthy of being at the top of the industry.
Madhu, how can I fall behind?
"By the way, I dare to ask this old man, how many jars of this wine are there in total?"
The head of the Kong family, who had just finished the auction, asked Lao He.
"This batch of wine totals five hundred jars."
"I didn't even get enough of it, so I took it out and sold it."
At this time, Lao He was very unhappy!
The current selling price, let alone one hundred taels, has gone straight to five hundred taels!
This bet is definitely lost.
Is it really necessary to only drink a small bowl every day?
What's the point of that person living?
But I said at the time that anyone who cheated was a dog, and he had to run around Sanhe County ten times without losing anything. What the hell was I talking about at that time...
Lao He really wanted to slap himself in the face.
"What?!"
"A total of five hundred altars?"
Hearing what Lao He said, everyone below was shocked.
Although five hundred altars sounds like a lot, there are almost two hundred people sitting here now.
On average, one person only has two or three altars, and the Kong family at the beginning took away ten altars.
Based on this calculation, it is estimated that many people will return empty-handed.
If no one took the picture, maybe there is no explanation, but what if someone got the picture but I didn't?
Wouldn't that be a shame and be thrown into grandma's house?
Moreover, I came here on behalf of our industry. If I go back empty-handed, wouldn’t I lose the face of the entire industry? How can I still work in this industry in the future?
Mudd!
I should have made a decisive decision then.
Everyone is regretful.
"Hurry up, let's not talk nonsense for the second round, five hundred taels of silver a jar, hurry up, I have to go back to eat after the filming is over!"
