"Five hundred and fifty gold!"
"Six hundred gold!"
"Eight hundred gold!"
"A thousand gold coins!"
The thousand gold barrier was so easily passed, which made Gongsun Jing standing aside secretly excited. His mouth felt dry and his heart jumped into his throat.
"Twelve hundred gold!"
"One thousand two hundred and fifty gold!"
"Fifteen hundred gold!"
"Sixteen hundred gold!"
"One thousand six hundred and fifty gold!"
"One thousand seven hundred gold!"
The endless pursuit of crazy price increases finally started to show signs of decline as it approached the two thousand gold mark.
After all, one thousand seven hundred gold is equivalent to seventeen thousand taels of silver.
Even in Zhongjing City, where every inch of land is at a premium, it is enough to buy several large houses, plus a bunch of maids and servants.
This number, this price, is enough to buy a treasure, even if all the top dignitaries of the empire are present.
But how could Xia Jingyun allow the situation to become dull like this!
"One thousand seven hundred gold, once! If there is no increase in bid three times, the last bidder will get it!"
He smiled and looked at everyone, "There are only five mirrors in total. The raw materials are extremely difficult to make. Now these raw materials have been used up. I don't know when they will be available again. Everyone, after passing this village, there will be no such shop. By then You can’t buy it even with money!”
"Eighteen hundred gold!"
Someone was immediately persuaded and asked to increase the price.
"One thousand eight hundred and fifty gold!"
But the one who had the advantage before immediately added another hand, demonstrating his determination to win.
Everyone is messing around in the scene, and sometimes it's not easy to offend each other too much. Seeing this situation, many people don't plan to fight after thinking about it. There will be more to come!
It's a pity that their thoughts were also guessed by Xia Jingyun. After choosing the bid, Xia Jingyun had imagined such a situation. He smiled and said: "Before coming, His Majesty told me that Wanbao Tower is his achievement and a court official. Due to the merits of the assistant, everyone who wins today will have his or her name engraved on the merit tablet in front of the Wanbao Tower!"
"Two thousand gold!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately shouted out a high price.
Xia Jingyun's words not only allowed them to break the shackles of human society, but also gave them a better reason.
The merit monument of Wanbao Tower?
Is that just a merit monument? That is the life-saving talisman for the whole family!
Who doesn’t know His Majesty’s temperament? If you do this, Your Majesty will probably read a favor. At critical moments in the future, Your Majesty may have some partiality in his heart. For them, that little bit of partiality is often the result of going to jail. The difference between three drinks as a penalty, it’s a gamble!
The price has been skyrocketing, and after several rounds of price increases, it has reached the threshold of three thousand gold.
At this time, Xia Jingyun no longer directly tempted him with words, but began to make noises secretly.
"Two thousand nine hundred and fifty gold, once!"
"Two thousand nine hundred and fifty gold, twice!"
"Is there anyone else who bids? If not, the first treasured mirror in the world to be auctioned in public, the mirror engraved with [Beautiful colors conceal the past and present, lotus flowers shy the jade face] and this poem will forever belong to the two bidders. A noble man with nine hundred and fifty gold."
"Two thousand nine hundred and fifty gold, third."
"Three thousand one hundred gold!"
A voice suddenly shouted, obviously unwilling to have this limelight and this poem taken away from her.
But for the woman who had almost pocketed the mirror, after looking at her husband's hesitation, she shouted without hesitation, "Three thousand two hundred gold!"
Xia Jingyun's hanging heart calmed down, and the shill was frightened and stopped following the bet.
"Three thousand two hundred gold, once!"
"Three thousand two hundred gold, twice!"
"Three thousand two hundred gold, the third time! The deal is done! Congratulations to this noble man for winning the world's first publicly auctioned treasure mirror, as well as the ownership of the verses engraved on it, and the right to leave his name on the Merit Monument of Wanbao Tower!"
Amid the complicated expressions on everyone's faces, a certain dignitary from a certain family, who was heartbroken but also very proud, happily enjoyed the envy and congratulations of everyone.
Qin Sichao's face was extremely gloomy. Are these people fools?
Just a mirror. The material is different from the bronze mirror. Although glass is expensive, you can buy it for only tens or hundreds of taels of silver. It actually costs 3,200 gold, which is 32,000 taels of silver. A mirror!
If he hadn't known that these people were powerful people that even the Qin family could not control, he would have even doubted whether these people were all invited by Xia Jingyun to act!
Gongsun Jingze was so excited that his fingertips were dancing in his sleeves. He once thought that if these five mirrors could be sold for fifty thousand taels, the difficulty would be half over. Then he would think of a way to survive this disaster. The possibility is huge!
Unexpectedly, this first mirror sold for a huge sum of thirty-two thousand taels!
Five precious mirrors, three to fifty-five, this cannot go to heaven!
He finally understood that even though he had repeatedly raised his expectations, he was still far, far away from the young master's ability and ability.
As for Xia Jingyun, he was completely relaxed at this moment.
Because, after the first treasure mirror was sold for this price, the subsequent prices have already been anchored in everyone's minds.
It’s the same thing, so the price will definitely be the same!
And things developed just as he expected.
When he placed the second mirror in front of him and unveiled the poem under the red cloth, the atmosphere in the venue once again fell into frenzy.
【The peerless beauty is kind and true. Snow is the muscles and bones and the moon is the god. 】
"Six hundred gold!"
"Eight hundred gold!"
"Twelve hundred gold!"
"Two thousand one hundred gold!"
Under the "auction guide price" of the first treasure mirror, it effortlessly crossed the two major hurdles of one thousand gold and two thousand gold, and was finally sold for 3,100 gold.
Then the third side.
[The hibiscus is not as beautiful as the beauty, but the wind in the water palace brings the fragrance of pearls and green flowers. 】
After a fierce competition, the deal was concluded for 2,900 gold.
Side four.
[Two peachy faces look out of the mirror, and the spring water in their eyes shines coldly on people. 】
The slightly tired crowd was no longer so crazy about raising prices, and in the end the transaction was settled at a "low price" of 2,700 gold.
This was of course expected by Xia Jingyun. The same thing would always be aesthetically fatigued. If it weren’t for Emperor Chongning and the addition of his poetry, as well as the help of his auction skills and shilling, perhaps, perhaps The current transaction price has dropped below two thousand gold.
But it doesn’t matter, there’s one last time.
He smiled and said, "Thank you for your support. Now we only have this side of the mirror. After the auction of this side, according to the predictions of the general supervisor, the key materials have been exhausted. We will not be able to spend so much money for at least one year." A huge amount of financial and material resources have been spent to overcome this difficulty. Therefore, it is really like there will be no such store after this village."
He didn't say much, just clicked and then slowly tore off the red cloth.
Looking at everyone, he smiled and said loudly: "Everyone looks at each other in a beautiful way, and the color of the human world is like dust."
All the people here who have not yet bought the precious mirror are staring at the last mirror with burning eyes.
Qin Li, who has always been reclusive but still has a reputation as a stunning beauty in Zhongjing, looked at his eldest brother and said calmly: "Brother, I want this mirror."
Qin Yuwen was originally furious when he saw the situation on the field. Now when he heard these words, his heart ached like a knife, as if his heart was broken into countless pieces.
"Little sister? What's so good about this broken mirror? Brother, I'll buy you a better one later."
Qin Li was already familiar with handling his eldest brother and was not angry. He only looked at him calmly and said, "Brother, do you think I am not worthy of this poem, or am I too ugly to look in such a good mirror, or Qin Li?" Can’t the family afford this money?”
Listening to his sister's familiar tone that sounded like she was about to fall out, Qin Yuwen's mouth twitched, and her grudges gave way to brother-sister love.
After an extremely fierce bidding, the final price of this mirror was: 5,400 gold!
The main person who took advantage of him by raising the price: Qin Yuwen.
Seeing Qin Yuwen shouting prices with a dark face again and again, even Xia Jingyun, who had gone through rigorous training, almost burst into laughter.
When the last mirror was sold, the auction came to an end in a short but intense process.
Xia Jingyun would not give up such a good opportunity to make some friendships. He personally presented all the dignitaries present with a generous gift carefully prepared by Stone Records: jewelry with a market price of one thousand taels of silver, which looked worth several thousand dollars. Packed in a beautiful box of one hundred taels.
As for the cost, ahem, I can only say that everyone who understands understands it.
Naturally, these dignitaries didn't understand much, so they were very satisfied. After a pleasant exchange of pleasantries that was much warmer in comparison, they went out and left, full of talk and shock.
As for the five people who bought the mirrors, Xia Jingyun did not say anything about paying the money and delivering the goods. Instead, he directly delivered the mirrors and agreed to pay the money tomorrow. He did not worry at all that these powerful people would break the contract.
As long as they have the courage, neither Emperor Chongning nor he will refuse to earn a bigger vote.
After finishing everything, Xia Jingyun walked backstage and saw Gongsun Jing sitting on a chair with a piece of paper in his hand and a dull look on his face.
He walked over and took a look and saw only one number written on the paper, seventeen thousand three hundred.
Gongsun Jing still turned to look at Xia Jingyun in disbelief, and even forgot to stand up and give up his seat, "Sir, just like this, we have seventeen thousand three hundred gold? One hundred and seventy-three thousand taels of silver?"
Xia Jingyun smiled and nodded, patting his shoulder, "I told you not to worry!"
Gongsun Jing giggled and was so happy that he couldn't stop.
