Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 660
Zhao Kang and Cao Bailu both looked at the old man's expression with interest.

Mr. Li from the auction house first glared, then opened his mouth and roared.

"Good wine!"

Then he directly picked up the bottle and took a sip, and Zhao Kang stopped immediately.

Damn, this bad old man is taking advantage of this!

"Mr. Li, don't just drink it. Isn't this wine good?" he said.

Old Man Li breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Zhao Kang, his pupils full of excitement: "Okay, okay! Great, old man, I have been drinking wine all my life, and I have never had such a strong drink!"

"Xiao Wang, go and get me 1000 taels of silver. I bought this wine!"

When the treasure appraiser next to him heard this, he quickly said, dumbfounded: "Mr. Li, this wine was asked by the guest to taste, not for sale."

Only then did Mr. Li react and became even more excited: "Sir, do you want to auction this wine?"

Zhao Kang nodded, and Mr. Li hurriedly said: "Does that mean there are still many drunkards?"

"Both types of wine weigh more than 1000 kilograms each," Zhao Kang said.

Mr. Li was shocked. He originally thought that there wouldn't be a lot of liquid, but he didn't expect it to weigh more than 1000 kilograms!
Now you can drink until you’re full!

Zhao Kang now opened Sanliangye again and poured a glass and handed it to Mr. Li: "This is Sanliangye. What you drank just now, Mr. Li, was Taizi wine. Try this!"

"Good wine! It's smooth in the mouth. Although the aroma is not as rich as the previous Taizi wine, the taste is even better."

After drinking Sanliangye, Mr. Li was filled with wonder, then looked at Zhao Kang and asked, "Sir, are you in a hurry to auction this wine? If you are not in a hurry, you can leave it to our auction house to run it."

Zhao Kang asked back: "What do you mean by being old?"

Mr. Li hurriedly said: "Young Master, you must know that auctioning is different from ordinary sales and needs to be carried out in advance. Especially the wine that Young Master wants to auction."

"If you are not in a hurry, I will hold a wine tasting party in the next few days and let you know the names of these two wines."

"Then we conduct an auction so that we can get the best price."

Zhao Kang thought for a while and nodded: "This is a good idea, then leave it to your bank."

Mr. Li laughed and said, "Don't worry, Master. Such a good wine will definitely sell for a sky-high price. I wonder how much Master will price it?"

Zhao Kang asked back: "I wonder how much the old gentleman thinks this wine can be sold for?"

Mr. Li looked at the wine bottle, his eyes full of joy: "Such a good wine can be said to be a precious liquid for wine lovers. I think 1000 taels of silver for a bottle is not expensive at all."

Zhao Kang smiled and said: "Mr. Li, this wine is unique in the world. Once it is sold out, it will be gone."

Mr. Li was extremely surprised when he heard this: "You won't be able to brew it in the future?"

Zhao Kang said ashamedly: "Yes."

"Then the value of this wine will go up!"

Mr. Li walked a few steps and thought with a deep brow. Their auction house would eventually have to withdraw money.

The higher the price of the goods sold, the higher their profits.

Thinking of this, Mr. Li finally raised his head and looked at Zhao Kang: "I think the price is one thousand, five hundred taels, so the final transaction price of each bottle of wine may be close to three thousand."

Cao Bailu looked at Zhao Kang from the side and couldn't help but sigh, this guy is so good at deceiving people.

Obviously the winery is still making wine every day, but he pours it, but says it will be gone when it is sold out.

Let the prices of these two wines soar again.

If Zhao Kang knew what this girl was thinking at this moment, he would probably sneer at her.

Do you know what the [-] Lafite is?
"Okay, then I'll leave everything to your bank. In addition, I plan to sell the fragrant skin jade for ten yuan a piece, priced at 100 taels of silver, and will deliver it to your bank later. These two bottles of wine will be given to you, Lao Man. It's time to taste it." Mr. Li didn't feel surprised when he heard it. He had also heard about the price of this fragrant skin jade. A piece of ten taels of silver was still expensive but not marketable.

Expensive batch.

Hearing that Zhao Kang had given two bottles of wine to him, he was even more happy: "Don't worry, sir, our auction house will definitely work on this matter with all our heart!"

After finalizing the cooperation, Zhao Kang left with Cao Bailu.

Mr. Li said to the treasure appraiser: "Pack up all the samples. I have to go back to the palace."

"clear."

After a while, inside the harem of Qi State.

Mr. Li respectfully presented the samples that Zhao Kang sent to the auction house: "Your Highness, a guest came to the auction house today and brought a batch of valuable goods, which he plans to auction. According to my opinion, this batch of goods may eventually be able to Sell ​​it for a sky-high price."

Liu Yanran, who was wearing a bright yellow palace dress, looked at the samples on the table with some surprise and opened the box containing the soap.

She raised her beautiful eyebrows lightly: "Fragrant skin jade? A native of China?"

"That's not true. The other party claims to be from Jingguo." Old Li said.

Liu Yanran hummed, and Mr. Li began to introduce the goods samples to her. The more the Pearl Princess listened, the more surprised she became.

“This is the wine in the end.”

Mr. Li exclaimed: "This wine can only be found in heaven. It tastes great. It is completely different from the wine we have in Zhou Dynasty. And it will be gone once it is sold out."

"The customer said that each of them has one thousand jin. According to my estimation, I am afraid that he will be able to sell it for one million taels of silver in the end!"

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yanran said: "Let your people start working on the auction from today. Label all the goods that the other party wants to auction as special supplies for the nobles. Send invitations widely to all the powerful and wealthy people in Shengjing City." Invited.”

"Especially those who are good drinkers and wealthy ladies."

Mr. Li smiled and nodded: "Old minister, I understand."

Liu Yanran thought for a while: "In addition, send someone to investigate the origins of these people. Not everyone can do such a big deal."

"Check if the other party has any backers in Shengjing City to avoid any accidents."

Mr. Li: "Old minister, I understand."

After Mr. Li left, Liu Yanran glanced at the soap on the table and called a young eunuch.

"Send these fragrant jade and this bottle of perfume to the Crown Princess."

Seeing the eunuch leave, Liu Yanran sighed. Although she was the prince's supervisor in name, the real decision-making power rested with her, a woman.

The prince would naturally feel uncomfortable if he did this, so Liu Yanran could only change her direction to show her kindness.

Because of forcing the ministers of the DPRK and China to donate money to replenish the national treasury, there was a lot of resentment towards her, the princess, among the ministers.

The prince was naturally happy to see this situation.

External troubles have not been resolved, but internal troubles have arisen again, so Her Royal Highness the Princess, who holds the most power during this period, is actually very tired.

But she couldn't let go. As for the children of Qi's royal family, she clearly knew what kind of character they were.

If she let go, Qi might be doomed, so she had to hold on and keep going.

With her arms resting on her chin, the woman quietly closed her eyes, feeling melancholy in her heart: "It would be great if that guy was here and could help me. He can help Qian Guo get to where he is today, and he can certainly help him bring Qi Guo back to its peak. "
