Chapter 121 The Golden Road!

The bazaar has begun.

Charity fairs like this are actually a way for these wealthy businessmen to express their feelings.

If you really want to buy jewelry or works, when can you not buy it?

Where are they not sold?
In the final analysis, it is still a matter of Zhu Ping's face.

What's more, the emperor and the prince are both here now.

These businessmen are just here to show off their faces.

If the emperor can remember himself, then he will make a lot of money.

Of course, facial recognition also comes at a price.

The items at the bazaar, such as those jewelry, are worth less than ten thousand taels.

But they generally sell for five to six times the price.

These businessmen have money.

However, no one's money comes from the wind.

This thing is not like an official position, but it is something that can really change the fate of the family.

Therefore, 25 pieces of jewelry were prepared for the bazaar, and about 150 million taels were sold in the end.

Finally, it’s the final auction item’s turn.

It's Zhu Xi's dress.

When this somewhat shabby dress was brought up, many people were dumbfounded.

Some officials were whispering.

"Which one is this?"

"Looking at the material, this seems to be tribute embroidery!"

"Could it be King Qin's clothes?"

"Can an old piece of clothing be sold?"

"..."

They were dumbfounded.

And such?
He wears worn-out clothes and sells them for charity?
"Only a fool would buy this thing, right?"

Hu Weiyong secretly slandered.

However, at this time Zhu Xi said something: "Everyone, since ancient times, filial piety has been the first thing. Although this piece of clothing is an old piece of clothing of this king, it is my queen's mother. When I first wore it, During the vassal period, he sewed it for me with his own hands! Therefore, this dress is of great significance. Nowadays, there are countless orphans and widowed mothers in the world who need our relief. Therefore, I feel that if this charity sale is held with such a loving mother, To end with the clothes of love is the most perfect!”

As soon as he finished speaking, many people stood up and applauded.

This is Lingnan area, special etiquette.

Zhu Biao has already told Zhu Yuanzhang that he once went on stage to give a speech. The more intense the applause, the stronger the response to your words.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, thought for a moment, and felt that Zhu Ping's words were indeed reasonable, so he also applauded.

The emperor took the lead, so naturally the officials could only join in applauding.

Then, someone stood up.

Zhu Xi took a look and saw that it was Shen Qi.

People from the Shen family.

Steady!

Shen Qi is Shen Sen's cousin and is currently in charge of the Shen family's affairs in Huizhou Prefecture. Shen Sen was not in Lingnan and could not come in time to attend the charity fair, so he was sent here.

Shen Qi said: "This thing was actually knitted by the Queen's own hands. The Queen's mother honors the world and is the mother of the country, but she also loves her son so much. It is really touching. Our Shen family is willing to invest [-] silver to buy this thing. As a souvenir!”

"puff……"

Hu Weiyong, who was drinking water, squirted out all the water, and then asked the person next to him: "How much?"

"The favor seems to be... 10 taels." Chen Ning replied.

"A piece of old clothes can actually be sold for 10 taels?"

Hu Weiyong was dumbfounded.

How are these businessmen in Lingnan different from the wealthy businessmen I know!

In Hu Weiyong's impression, businessmen are all hard-core roosters!
But these wealthy businessmen in Lingnan are more generous than the last.

Hu Weiyong originally thought that 10 taels was already a sky-high price.But at this time, a voice said: "I, the Luo family of Panyu Prefecture, bid 20 taels! Sorry, Shopkeeper Shen, this dress shows the queen's motherly love and commemorates the filial piety of the King of Qin. Our Luo family wants it!"

"Hmph, let's grab it then!"

Shen Qi's eyes flashed, and he immediately made an offer: "30 taels!"

At this time, in his mind, he recalled what his uncle said to him when he first came to Lingnan.

When you arrive in Huizhou Prefecture, you must find a way to break into the local chamber of commerce.

In addition, any policy of the Qin Palace must be fully coordinated.

The most important point is that any auction hosted by King Qin, no matter what it is, must give King Qin enough face, even if he loses more property!

This is Shen Sen's confession to him.

And this time at the bazaar, the person in charge of the Shen family in Panyu Mansion also sent a letter to Shen Qi specifically, saying that as long as the clothes of King Qin don't exceed 50 taels, they can compete for it.

Because the meaning is extraordinary!
Over there, the Luo family made an offer again: "40 taels."

At this time, the eyes of everyone present fell on the two people bidding.

Many people are numb.

For example, Zhu Biao.

The same goes for Xu Miaoyun and the others.

After all, they had seen these people bidding millions of taels.

Although it is unbelievable to buy a used piece of clothing with these 10 taels, it is not as exciting as when they bought an official position from Zhu Xiang.

As for the officials in the DPRK, they were all dumbfounded.

40 taels!

Even if they serve as officials all their lives, they won't be able to get such a large salary!
Is this Luo family so rich?
The ministers from the capital, at this moment, actually feel like country bumpkins who have never seen the world...

Are we too ignorant, or is the world too crazy?

A used piece of clothing can actually be sold for a whopping price of 40 taels?
If you have this money, if you use it to buy clothes, it will be enough for your family to wear for 800 years!
"50 taels!" Shen Qi called out the price again.

At this time, he was also very nervous.

This price is almost his limit.

Therefore, he was very worried that the Luo family would shout again.

Sure enough, the Luo family, as the number one seafarer under Zhu Xi, accumulated wealth in one year, which was comparable to that of the Shen family in two generations. Mainly because the Luo family was currently responsible for the entire Western trade.

Plus, there’s plundering…

Among other things, oil alone is enough for the Luo family to earn tens of millions of taels of silver every year.

This is the result after Zhu Xi took the big head!

In the age of science and technology, oil is the lifeblood of all science and technology.

so important.

So, why did Shen Sen try so hard to do overseas trade and become a sea traveler under Zhu Fang?

Just because the profit is so terrifying!
The Luo family pays so much money to Prince Qin's Mansion every year, but the Luo family's current wealth is still incalculable.

"60!" The Luo family spoke again.

In the Luo family, this person is just a cousin of Luo Hang.

However, his confidence in raising prices overwhelmed the Shen family.

"70!" Shen Qi was very unconvinced. He gritted his teeth and shouted out the price again.

After shouting, he felt like he was going to collapse.

However, another voice came from the Luo family: "80 taels!"

"I...I admit defeat."

Shen Qi was very frustrated.

He tried his best.

However, the opponent is more powerful.

Now he finally understood why Shen Sen attached so much importance to going to sea.

Just look at the Luo family and you will know that this is a road paved with gold!
