"The starting price is 1.5 million gold, and the minimum increase is 10,000 gold each time. You two can start!"
Huang Yuan announced loudly, and silently praised his wit in his heart.
Both of them want steamships. No matter how much money they get in the end or who gets it, the shipyard is the biggest beneficiary!
"The starting price is 1.5 million gold? Then... we'll add 10,000 gold!"
After listening to the rules, Wang Ben thought for a moment and raised his hand.
There is no way, now there are only five ships that can be allocated to them. There are six of them, who can give it to whom, they can only fight for one more ship!
"Our Li family will also add 10,000 yuan, 1.52 million gold!"
Li, who was dressed in silk brocade, turned her head and made eye contact with the tribesmen behind her, and shouted loudly.
Steamships were expensive, so they also bought them in partnership with other tribesmen. Each family paid a little less to buy the ship and go to Nanyang to make a fortune!
"We have 1.55 million gold!"
"We have 1.6 million gold!"
"We have 1.7 million!"
"One million and eight hundred thousand...!"
Neither group wanted to give in to the other.
Only with a boat can you qualify to go to Nanyang to make a fortune, and you are determined to get it!
On the contrary, it gave the people a chance to watch the fun, and they were all very interested. If someone hesitated, they would not stop urging them and cheering them up.
Everyone wants to see how much money this steamer can fetch in the end!
"We have two million gold!"
After a period of fierce competition, Zhang Han gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, raised his hands and shouted.
"Two million gold?"
Li's face looked troubled, and he turned his head to discuss with his clansmen.
Previously, when the offer was 1.8 million gold, everyone was so excited that they shouted out!
Now that it has increased by two hundred thousand gold, they really can't get it out!
"Oh! Forget it! Just one boat. When we have money later, we will buy it again. This time, let's give it to Tongwu Hou and the others!"
"Yes! If there is any more, we will really have no money!"
After some discussion, everyone reached a consensus and decided to abandon the ship.
"Okay! Since the Li family gives up, the last steamship in the shipyard will be owned by Tongwu Hou!"
Huang Yuan officially announced, and the people immediately gave a burst of warm cheers.
"Two million gold!"
Hearing this, Wang Ben, Meng Yi and others were happy, but even more distressed.
Didn't you say before that you wanted to find His Highness the Crown Prince and negotiate the price to one million gold? Didn't you want to save half a million gold?
It was a good thing this time. Instead of saving money, I spent an extra half a million gold, and this old coward said it himself.
This money is enough for at least dozens of families in his Zhang family to spend for five years!
"Lao Wang, Lao Meng, you guys don't look at me like this. We all have to share the extra money equally! If anyone is not willing, there will be no boat available!"
Zhang Han, the monkey spirit, would definitely not take the money for himself.
Now there are only five ships that can be given to them. If anyone cares about money, they can just drop the matter without even fighting!
"Forehead……!"
The five people all pursed their lips, extremely reluctant.
But even if you are reluctant, there is nothing you can do!
Seeing that there are endless spices in Nanyang, don’t you go and get them? Just give up?
Five hundred thousand, divided equally among everyone, is more than eighty thousand.
It is equivalent to a steamship that each person spent 1.58 million gold to buy.
"Sure! I have no objection!"
"Yes, I have no objection either!"
"Just do it...!"
After thinking for a while, everyone nodded angrily and asked Huang Yuan to pay the money and get the boat.
Each ship has its own number, and the craftsmen are ordered to transport it to the dock on the Weishui River.
Huang Yuan happily counted the banknotes and ordered the young man to be sent to the other side of the house!
He also didn't expect that a steamship that no one would buy for a million dollars could now be sold for two million gold!
"I wonder when the next batch of ships from the shipyard will roll off the assembly line?"
Li was missing a boat, so she asked.
"Yes! We want to buy a boat too!"
Among the crowd, there were still many people who were eyeing the purchase of boats, but after hesitating for a short while, all the boats had been sold.
So I had to turn my attention to the next batch!
"Haha! Don't worry, everyone. The craftsmen in the shipyard are already working overtime to make it. It can be completed in three days at the fastest and five days at the slowest!"
Huang Yuan stood high and announced with a smile.
"What? The next batch will be ready in three to five days?"
Upon hearing this, the faces of Meng Yi and others suddenly darkened.
"If I had known that the next batch would be ready so soon, why would we be here to grab it?"
"Who says it's not the case! It cost us an extra five hundred thousand gold!"
Feng Quji and Meng Yi muttered dissatisfiedly.
Kang Anping pulled Huang Yuan down, tugged on his clothes and said: "I said you kid, you seemed quite honest before, but you have only been with the prince for a few years? Why have you learned so badly? What? Are you sincerely trying to steal our money?"
"Ouch! The ministers and subordinates have no intention of doing this. Things have come to this, and I have no idea!"
Huang Yuan pretended to be embarrassed and said.
"Okay! There are not enough ships. Even if you are in trouble, why don't you tell us that the next batch of ships will be built soon?"
They couldn't afford to wait for months. Could it be that they couldn't afford to wait for three to five days?
Even preparing supplies for the crew will take several days!
In just these few days, they wasted half a million gold!
Boy, what a price!
"I'm so unjust! You guys have never asked when the next batch of steamships will be built!"
Huang Yuan still had that innocent expression, and their chests were rising and falling in anger.
Bad guy!
This guy is also a bad guy!
But the money has been paid, and it is impossible to get it back. Even if they know that this guy is full of evil, there is really nothing they can do!
You can only admit defeat!
"Great! The next batch of steamships will be built soon! We can go to the bank now and take out all our money and prepare them! As soon as the ships are built, start immediately!"
"Yes, yes, I will go back later to raise money. I must buy the next batch of ships!"
The rich people had been hesitant before and wanted to come to the shipyard to see the situation.
I didn’t expect it to be so popular, so I immediately made up my mind!
"The next batch will be built soon. We have come all the way here, so we don't have to go back. We can just stay in Xianyang City for a few days!"
"That's for sure. I heard that there are not only a lot of delicious food in Xianyang City, but also the girls are top-notch and beautiful. I must have fun for a few days and then drive back by boat!"
"Yes, yes, we will go to Zuixiang Pavilion to drink wine later. I am treating you, haha!"
"Okay! This is what you said. I want three girls!"
"Dot, dot, dot, don't say three, even thirty, I can afford it...!"
Among the people watching, some were wealthy households in Xianyang City, and many were businessmen from other counties in Daqin.
I have accumulated a lot of wealth every day, and I am just waiting for the right opportunity to use it to make money!
And Nanyang is a very good opportunity!
As long as you buy a seagoing ship that can go far across the ocean, you can go to Nanyang to pick up money!
