"What's wrong? Zha Zhahui? If you add tens of millions more, maybe I will follow?" Gou Shaoqun asked with a smile.
"Young Master Gou, I underestimated you." Zhang Jiewei said, got up and left with others.
This also shows that he has completely given up bidding.
His departure made everyone stunned. They originally thought that today's Stone King auction would be a battle between the Gou family and the Zhang family.
But I didn't expect that the Gou family had no intention of ending, and the Zhang family also withdrew early.
The jewelry company that bid 730 million did not expect that it would actually buy it at this price.
But thinking about the final performance of the Gou family and Zhang family, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
With doubts, he came to Gou Shaoqun and asked, "Why didn't President Xiao Gou participate in the bidding today?"
"Not good!" Gou Shaoqun told the truth. Anyway, Tang Ping said no, so he believed it.
He didn't end up because he didn't think well of it. No matter whether emeralds could be found here in the future, he wouldn't offend anyone.
The man's face turned pale, Gou Shaoqun said it was not good, and just now Zhang Jiewei gave up the price increase at the price of 730 million. Is there really something wrong with this Stone King?
He hasn't paid the money yet. If he doesn't pay the balance, according to regulations, he will lose the 20 million deposit.
Should I choose to lose the 20 million deposit, or use 730 million to "pick up the leak"?
The man fell into hesitation, and Tang Ping and Gou Shaoqun ignored him. They had already said everything they could, and it was his own decision what to do.
In the evening, the two invited Professor Liu to treat them to dinner. Gou Shaoqun also extended an invitation to Professor Liu and asked him if he wanted to work in Gou's Jewelry, but Professor Liu refused.
In his words, the 30 million is just for paying taxes, and he can make the whole family live comfortably, so there is no need to be so tired.
If given the chance, he would also like to see if he could continue to teach in school.
The two of them didn't know what happened back then, which would have caused him to leave school and come to his brother-in-law to suffer. But everyone has his own life and his own way of living, so they can only bless him.
The next day, I flew back to Xi'an. As soon as I got off the plane, Gou Shaoqun received a call from Gou Chengan.
After hanging up the phone, he said to Tang Ping with an ugly face: "Mr. Xie of Shengshi Jewelry committed suicide by jumping off the building."
Shengshi Jewelry is the jewelry company that bought Shi Wang for 730 million yesterday.
In the end, Mr. Xie couldn't resist the temptation. After all, judging from King Shi's performance, 730 million was definitely missed.
After much hesitation, Mr. Xie paid the final payment and then directly had the stone removed locally.
It was said that there was almost no grain left in it, and Mr. Xie was stunned at the time.
After returning to the hotel, I went directly upstairs and jumped out of the room.
Tang Ping and Gou Shaoqun could only sigh, and then Gou Shaoqun said: "Everyone who knew about our itinerary was already investigating after we arrived that day."
At this time, it was almost certain that it was a trap set up by Zhang Jiewei or the Zhang family for Gou Shaoqun.
They didn't know the source of Gou Shaoqun's jade, and they probably thought that if Gou Shaoqun was fooled and spent hundreds of millions to buy such a piece of junk, although Gou's vitality would not be seriously damaged, his cash flow would definitely be affected.
In the acquisition of high-end jade rough stones, the Zhang family can still catch up.
After this incident, although it was not brought to light, the Gou family almost suffered a big loss, and naturally it would not make it easy for the Zhang family.
But that's all the Gou family's business and has nothing to do with Tang Ping.
He and Lao Cui first returned to Chang'an and then went to Europe with the various jade trinkets they bought.
If there is any business that is the most profitable, it must be a monopoly business.
Tang Ping now almost monopolizes the high-end luxury goods market for European aristocrats.
From accessories to clothing to various supplies, as long as these nobles want to buy the highest quality and most stylish products, the first thing they think of is Donkey Brand.
The entire economic landscape of Europe has changed as a result.
First of all, the perfume, wine and cigarettes produced in Wessex were continuously transported to Porto, and then spread overland to the entire Europe.
Alaric didn't have enough ships to carry the goods, so he simply invited his Nordic friends to transport the goods.
As a pirate, it is very reasonable to take a portion of the commission and ensure that the goods are safely delivered to the destination.
This move also inspired many chambers of commerce.
You have to pay protection fees anyway, so why not add some more and just ask them to luck?
These Vikings have an excellent reputation. No matter what you do, a Viking Development Co., Ltd. will sign a contract with you.
Once something goes wrong with the goods, they will compensate you, which is much better than having to worry about the whole shipping and shipping process yourself.
At first, some nobles were worried that all the little money they had on hand would be stolen.
But they soon discovered that this was not the case.
Although the donkey brand made them a lot of money, they also gained a lot of business.
The distillery in Wessex has to purchase a large amount of grain, and prices will rise as demand increases.
These nobles all found that the food produced in their territories was easier to sell.
The demand for wool, cowhide, meat, etc. is also increasing.
After all, many luxury goods, especially clothing, still require downstream industries.
And the Wessex and Nordic people who made money were definitely willing to spend money to buy meat to eat.
Therefore, the livestock industry in the territory also developed.
In addition, Porto takes the lead in infrastructure construction. Building roads and hotels requires a lot of materials and manpower.
The materials market began to prosper, and workers' consumption power increased after they made money.
The European Middle Ages are historically known as the Dark Ages. The economy did not develop and even experienced regression.
But because of Tang Ping, a small stone thrown into the stagnant water, the entire European economy was slowly revitalized by him. Although the impact is still small now, it has gradually become apparent.
Visigoth, like Wessex, became the biggest beneficiary country. King Jindila and Alaric also listened to the advice and did not put the money earned in the basement of the castle, but took it out to start construction.
Tang Ping knew that only a market with a prosperous economy is the best place to dump products.
If there are poor people everywhere, who will make their own goods and sell them to them?
Even nobles will be hollowed out sooner or later.
Jindila was extremely grateful for the huge changes Tang Ping had brought, and even planned to discuss with Tang Ping about erecting a bronze statue of him in the capital.
Europeans particularly like to do this kind of thing. There is already one in the square in Wessex, and construction is already underway in the square in Porto.
Tang Ping refused at first, but Fabialo and the others felt that Tang Ping's achievements and contributions were worthy of erecting a bronze statue for him.
Tang Ping thought about it and had no choice but to give up and set it up immediately. Anyway, he had a lot of immortality tablets in the Tang Dynasty in the past, so it was not bad at all.
