So, when the auction started, it really went smoothly.

Su Hongshan's worry that the officials did not dare to participate in the auction even though they had money here. However, these sufficient preparations did not happen.

At the same time, the merchants' auction hosted by Su Hongshan was more smooth.

It's rare for these merchants to get a chance to see the holy face, not to mention the emperor's encouragement for them to actively participate in it. Each one of them really pushed up the price.

But at the beginning, the price of a casual jade Ruyi soared to two thousand taels, not to mention the original price of some higher objects.

There were still some money that could not be taken out for a while, so they wanted to sell shops on the spot. The merchants arranged by Su Hongshan soon came into use.

After an auction, the merchants alone raised 70 million taels directly, and even the officials paid a high price of 40 million taels.

Every item was sold out in the end. Even if it was only some items that were not very valuable and nobody asked for a price in weekdays, they were sent out to their master's house and sold them back at a high price, which saved face somehow.

Otherwise, the whole scene did not flow, but the things they sent out were streamed, and the face could not be put down.

Su Hongshan was sure of this idea, so for some ordinary objects, those sent there were put to auction.

These are not the gifts given to Su Hongshan by the emperor, the queen and the women in the former harem, but a lot of silver has been shot.

Generally speaking, things sent out from the harem can't flow into ordinary families, so they are auctioned by officials.

The king of Xiang also played a trick. Whoever donated the money would directly say whose title or name it was. In order to fight for his wife's face, the concubines' mother's family had the cheek to buy it back to earn face for his wife.

As a result, the items from the harem alone were sold at a high price of 15 million taels, not to mention the emperor.

But what the emperor took out was directly auctioned by the merchants. It was a hymn written by the emperor when he came.

As for who he praised, the emperor also expressed his praise for all the participants in the donation and auction.

However, there is only one copy of this word, and others can only listen to it. Only those who get the picture have the capital to boast. Those merchants are crazy, and finally they directly bid out the highest price of the whole venue, which is 18 million Liang silver.

The one who asked for the highest price undoubtedly became the merchant. The one who paid the most money tonight not only got the praise from the Emperor himself, but also got the first prize.

The right to sign a city, a plaque that says "Jishan aristocratic family", and the most important thing is to give their children a palace test alone, and to choose the best one can start directly from the sixth grade official instead of taking part in the imperial examination.

For a while, all the merchants who didn't win the first place were red eyed.

He spent more than 20 million Liang silver to make his family become an official family.

Although he is only a small official, such a small official is also an ordinary merchant, and his family may not be able to achieve it after struggling for several lives.

Not to mention the plaque of "Jishan family" and the right to sign a city.

If it's a real benefit to be an official, the plaque and the right of signature are the long-term benefits.

Where to find such benefits, for a time did not shoot all regret.

If I had known this, I would have won the first prize if I sold more of my family property.

Although a county's right of signature and plaque also let them excited, but compared with the first place or worse.
