Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 668 Crazy Soap

After hearing the auctioneer's words, many wealthy ladies and rich ladies who wanted fragrant skin jade suddenly became excited.

Zhao Kang, who was sitting in the private room on the second floor, turned his eyes and found that Mrs. Li, Mrs. Zhang and the others introduced by Song Qingyan before were all in the private rooms on the second floor.

He then realized that the private rooms on the second floor were reserved for powerful and wealthy officials.

In particular, the curtains and windows of several wing rooms were closed, and it was unknown who was staying inside.

But what interested Zhao Kang most was that he saw an old acquaintance.

In the fourth wing opposite, a woman is wearing a light yellow dress and a veil. She is sitting in a dignified and elegant posture, just like what she saw when she first met with Zhou Guo.

Princess Pearl, Liu Yanran!

Hearing Zhao Kang whisper, Cao Bailu was also a little surprised, glanced vaguely in the direction of Liu Yanran, and then asked in surprise: "Why did she also come to participate in the auction?"

"I don't know yet, but this girl is very smart. Maybe her purpose is completely different from ours."

Cao Bailu looked thoughtful. Zhao Kang asked her to record it for the second step of selling the goods.

Of course Liu Yanran would not be like this, so it could only be to record how many people spent how much money in this auction house today.

Maybe those companies that spend the most money will suffer in the future.

After all, this guy had a precedent of asking ministers to donate money to fill the treasury before.

What Zhao Kang didn't know was that Liu Yanran learned this from him.

When I went to Qian Kingdom to seek peace, I heard Master Yang and Xiao Xuance saying that Zhao Kang, a crazy guy, forced officials to donate money for the war.

After she returned to China, she immediately followed suit. The effect was naturally surprisingly good, and of course it offended many people.

Except for a few people, many of the ministers who were forced to donate money already held grudges against the Pearl Princess from the bottom of their hearts.

Although the money they donated was only a drop in the bucket compared to their own property.

Liu Yanran knew this very well.

But at the moment, Liu Yanran didn't care at all. When the time comes and her wings are full, it will be time for a woman to sit on the Qi Guo Dragon Chair.

Who dares to say anything then?Who can say anything?
Looking in the direction of Zhao Kang, Liu Yanran naturally knew that the person sitting there was the owner of the auction as the person behind the auction house.

"If the other party is really working for the Jingguo royal family, then his status must be quite high. I wonder if there is any possibility that he can be used to ease the current relationship with Jingguo."

Liu Yanran was thinking about it. As for whether the other party was from the Qian Kingdom, Liu Yanran had never thought about it.

After a trip to Qianguo, she thought she had almost touched the Qianguo court.

Even a great talent like Zhao Kang was able to give up at the drop of a hat, and no one in the court, from the empress to the prince to the ministers, stood by Zhao Kang's side.

What's so noteworthy about such a decayed court and the Qian Kingdom? It must have been just bad luck before, and Zhao Kang happened to be supporting it.

Without Zhao Kang now, I am afraid that the civil and military ministers of the Qian Kingdom will be so happy that they can count the 200 million they sent every month, and they will be so happy that they can't sleep.

There are people who give money for free, so how can they think about creating revenue for Qianguo?

No wonder it is a small country.

Just when everyone was having different thoughts, the auction in the lobby on the first floor had officially begun.

The first items to be auctioned were not Zhao Kang's goods, but some porcelain calligraphy and paintings used to open the auction.

However, some people also joined in bidding, and three items were auctioned in succession.The auctioneer struck with his hammer: "The next item to be auctioned is the fragrant skin jade!"

Hearing this, the eyes of most of the women present lit up. This is what they came here for today!
The auctioneer said: "The fragrant skin jade totals 3000 yuan this time, ten yuan per piece. The starting price of each piece is 100 taels of silver. Each bid must not be less than 20 taels. Each person is limited to one purchase! Now the first fragrant skin jade begins. auction!"

As the auctioneer spoke, everyone understood that there were only three hundred copies of fragrant skin jade this time.

In other words, only 300 people present could get it.

Immediately a voice sounded in the wing room on the second floor: "200 taels."

The auctioneer immediately said: "Guest No. 200 on the second floor bid 200 taels. [-] taels for the first time!"

The official below looked up and knew who was in the curtained room.

Zhao Kang didn't know that the wing on the second floor of the auction house was a place where only second-grade officials and their families could stay.

Other than that, it's just the royal family.

Some sharp-eyed people even saw Liu Yanran in room two. Even Princess Mingzhu could only stay in room two.

Then No. [-] knew without thinking that he was either the prince or the princess.

So no one dared to bid at all.

The first lot of fragrant skin jade was sold for 200 taels.

As the auctioneer continued to drop the hammer, the first ten fragrant skin jade were all sold for 200 taels of silver, and these rooms were all closed with curtains to prevent outsiders from prying into them.

Zhao Kang also understood that these guys probably came from the palace.

Immediately afterwards, the auction for No. 11 fragrant skin jade began, and Mrs. Li on the opposite side immediately bid two hundred.

By the time they, the official wives on the second floor, had finished buying, twenty copies were gone.

But the 200 yuan soap brought Zhao Kang 4000 taels of income!

Zhao Kang smiled. He knew that this was just the beginning. The ladies and ladies in the hall on the first floor who were looking eagerly were the big ones.

Sure enough, once the fragrant skin jade No. 20 was auctioned, the price was three times higher than before!
"Congratulations, Miss Hua Yueying bought a fragrant skin jade!" the auctioneer shouted excitedly.

Cao Bailu immediately took up the pen and wrote down the words Huayueying Xiangfuyu 600 on the paper.

Followed by two copies of No.20, three copies of No.20...

There were one sale after another of fragrant skin jade. Four to five hundred good people gathered on the first floor of the vast auction house hall alone, but there were only three hundred lots of scented soap, so it was destined that some people would not be able to take the photos.

But except for the poor guy like Zhou Ming, who among the people present is not a rich man in his pocket?

This results in the higher the transaction price of soaps that are further back.

Zhou Ming, who didn't go to the second floor to avoid listening to Song Qingyan's chatter, sat in the lobby on the first floor and grinned almost to the back of his ears!

Money!This is all my money!
He was so anxious that he wanted to stand up and bid for those ladies, and he felt like a cat scratching his head!
Keep urging you to go higher and higher!

The fragrant skin jade is selling like crazy!

Zhao Kang once again saw the wealth of Qi State. He wanted to ask these guys, did your money come from the strong wind?

Especially the transaction price of the last fragrant skin jade was as high as 3000 taels!

The cost of this thing is only twenty or thirty cents!
