Zhu Xuan and the others came directly to the front row.
When everyone was almost here, Zhu Xuan asked Hou Xian to announce that the auction had officially begun.
At the front of the venue, there was a temporary high platform. The seats below faced the high platform. At this time, Wu Yongfeng walked up to the high platform.
"Everyone, the auction has officially begun!"
Wu Yongfeng said loudly: "Now the first batch of auction items..."
However, before he finished speaking, Wang Yu, who was at the back, immediately stood up and asked, "Wu Yongfeng, if you dare to disrupt His Royal Highness's auction, get out of here!"
This voice appeared in the field.
Many businessmen turned around at the same time, looking at Wang Yu and then at Wu Yongfeng in the stands.
There were also some Chaozhou businessmen present. They knew Wu Yongfeng and were not qualified to be on this stage. Although they had doubts in their hearts, they did not dare to mention it directly.
But Wang Yu didn't care so much and directly raised the question. He just didn't like Wu Yongfeng.
"Why can't I stand here?"
Wu Yongfeng asked rhetorically.
Wang Yu said loudly: "Because you are not qualified."
Wu Yongfeng couldn't help but laugh and said: "Come on, throw this person out. I want to see if you are qualified or I am."
The soldiers in the venue walked directly towards Wang Yu.
Seeing this, Wang Yu was stunned.
Why would His Highness's people listen to Wu Yongfeng's arrangements?
impossible!
It must be impossible, it's not true.
Wang Yu said loudly: "Let me go, I am the person invited by His Highness, and I have an invitation letter from His Highness!"
Wu Yongfeng was super relieved and said sternly: "Of all of us here, who doesn't have an invitation letter from His Highness? This person deliberately caused trouble in the venue and threw it out!"
The soldiers dragged Wang Yu away regardless of how noisy he was.
The Chaozhou merchants were surprised when they saw this scene. They had long heard that Wu Yongfeng had gone to Panyu to meet His Highness. It seemed to be true, and he even had a relationship with His Highness.
They regretted it now. If they had known that the emperor's grandson was so powerful, they should not have ignored him at that time.
The two big ships in the port alone could crush them all.
"Finally I can't see that annoying guy anymore."
Xu Miaojin hummed: "If it were me, I would have dealt with him long ago. My brother is still kind-hearted."
Cen Hua echoed: "If he were in my Guishun Prefecture, this person would definitely be dragged down by the second brother, beaten up, and then thrown into the mountains to feed the big tigers."
Cen Jing scolded: "Hua'er, you are a girl, you can't say such things."
"oh!"
Cen Hua pouted.
Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "Little sister Hua'er is not afraid of big tigers?"
Cen Hua said softly: "I'm not afraid. If I hadn't been young and there were so many tigers that day, I wouldn't have had to come to the rescue."
To hear her say that, she is still a hero among women.
Xu Miaojin knew how Zhu Xuan saved Cen Hua, and said with a smile: "We have beaten big tigers before, but it was Hou Xian who beat him. Sister Hua'er, you don't know, Hou Xian was very powerful at that time. He slid over and the tiger died."
Hou Xian listened and smiled proudly.
After Wang Yu's trouble was solved, the auction on the stage continued.
The first items to be auctioned were not the ceramics, but tea leaves, silk fabrics, etc.
These items were relatively common and did not cause much of a stir. However, Zhu Xuan controlled the price within a reasonable range and the quantity purchased at one time was relatively large. The merchants calculated it and felt that they would not suffer a loss, so they started bidding one after another.
Among them, there are still many goods belonging to the Wu family and the Cen family.
Take some first and sell them here.
The auction of tea, silk, etc. passed quickly. The merchants present were able to take some pictures, and soon came to the main event.
"The next things to be photographed are the enamels, pastels, enamels, and glass that everyone is most looking forward to."
Wu Yongfeng clapped his hands.
Several people came up carrying a big box.
There are ten porcelains, ten enamels, ten pastels, ten enamels and ten glass products in the box. These are a complete set.
The porcelain among them is also the stock of the Wu family.
Zhu Xuan used this method to bundle them together for auction, which moved Wu Yongfeng to tears.
He decided that he would stand by Zhu Xuan unconditionally in the future.
Always support Zhu Xuan.
"These porcelains are a set."
"Because firing is troublesome, the quantity is not large, but everyone wants to get it, and His Highness doesn't know who to sell it to, so he sells it at auction."
"Today's auction is mainly to sell these fine porcelains."
"His Highness has brought fifty sets. The starting price of one set is fifty thousand taels."
“The highest bidder gets it!”
"If you can't afford that much money, you can exchange goods of equal value, such as spices, pearls, ivory, frankincense, etc., with His Highness."
"The quantity of porcelain is limited. Anyone who wants it should get it as soon as possible."
Wu Yongfeng is a qualified auctioneer.
Directly mentioning the scarcity of the quantity, the trouble of firing, etc. can easily raise the price of the porcelain and stimulate their bidding mood.
As soon as he said this, someone responded immediately.
They could see that if they took pictures of enamel and other porcelain and resold them, they would definitely make a fortune.
There are also people who bought it for collection and really want it.
"I'll pay fifty thousand taels!"
"Sixty thousand taels!"
"Sixty-five thousand taels!"
…
The sound of bidding continued to echo in the venue.
The prices are getting higher and higher, and the first set of porcelain was sold for one hundred thousand taels.
It can be seen that there are still many rich people in Nanyang. The method of transaction is not only money, but also barter. Many local merchants are confident in setting prices.
"A few porcelain pieces can be sold for a high price of one hundred thousand taels?"
Cen Jing said in disbelief.
Zhu Xuan said that it was difficult to bake, but he was just talking casually.
Whether that was the case, none of them knew.
But as long as the quantity is controlled and things are rare and expensive, they can do whatever they want in terms of price. After all, those who can afford it are rich people, so the money of the rich will not be earned in vain.
"The price of the first few sets has stabilized at about 100,000 taels."
Zhu Xuan said: "There are more than a hundred merchants present, but I only brought out fifty sets. More than half of them couldn't buy them. When the quantity is large, some people who want it may hesitate, but When there are fewer pieces left, hesitant people will become more determined and keep raising their bids to get them. The later the pieces go, the more expensive they will be."
Cen Jing and the others listened and nodded secretly.
I was thinking that Zhu Xuan was more suitable to be in business than to be the grandson of the emperor.
"Profiteer!"
Cen Hua complained softly.
Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "The businessmen here are more cunning than me. Even if I sell my enamel at a lower price, they will sell it at a higher price after they get it."
Xu Miaojin said: "According to my brother, businessmen are not good people."
Zhu Xuan said: "Not necessarily, it depends on the situation!"
The auction is still going on. Zhu Xuan and the others are just here to watch the process, chat in the audience, not paying attention to anything else, and just collect the money in the end.
