Those who were watching the excitement immediately brought a bucket of water.
The young man picked up a nearby piece of wood that looked similar in texture and pattern to the beam, and put it into the bucket.
That piece of wood suddenly sank to the bottom like gold and stone.
The scholar suddenly raised his head and looked at the wealthy businessman in shock.
The wealthy businessman's eyes also brightened, "Ten thousand taels! I bought it!"
Regardless of whether it is agarwood or not, such dense and dense wood, such beautiful patterns, and also fragrant...
Whether it is spices or carvings, its value can be increased more than ten times!
"Aren't you bullying this lady? I'll pay you fifteen thousand taels! How about selling it to me?" As expected, there were other wealthy businessmen watching.
Seeing this, how can you miss this huge profit that has doubled?
"You... Madam, I came first, and I also paid fifteen thousand!"
"How about you come first? The deal hasn't been completed yet! There's a chance to bid! I'll give you sixteen thousand!"
The people around watching the excitement were all dumbfounded.
What kind of wood is this? A piece of wood costs more than ten thousand taels? !
They originally ridiculed the Mulan Academy, but just after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, they encountered such a disaster! A fire burned everything!
Who would have thought that in a blink of an eye, someone would be in trouble!
There are many people who feel their teeth sore when they breathe in around them.
"Eighteen thousand, if you can, I will give you cash!" The first wealthy businessman from the Song Dynasty gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and quoted the highest price in his heart.
Another wealthy businessman wants to bid again.
Wen Jin pressed his forehead, interrupted him and said: "This gentleman came first, and I quoted the price to him first. Both of you are discerning, but businessmen are also wise, and I can't be just for profit. Ten thousand Eight, give this piece of wood to this gentleman.
"You see, there are other pieces of wood with similar texture and beautiful textures, but they are not as big and long, so the price is naturally lower.
"Let's see if there's anything you like?"
The two wealthy businessmen saw that although she was a woman, her words were decent and well-founded.
Moreover, the phrase "Businesses are ethical and cannot be purely profit-oriented", which made the two of them have a good impression of her.
The two of them bowed to her.
"I'll take another look!" The wealthy businessman, who bought the beam for eighteen thousand taels, stroked the mustache on his chin and smiled proudly.
"Brother, please don't rob me anymore! This piece! I want this piece! Madam, what price do you want?"
"Hiss...the color of this piece is so good! It's actually purple-red in color!"
"I promised you not to rob me!" The wealthy businessman hurriedly pushed him and blocked him from behind.
More and more businessmen came after hearing the news.
Some are timber merchants, while others have extensive and complex businesses.
"Ouch! It's too late! This piece of wood is priceless!"
The wealthy businessman who arrived late was beating his chest and looking full of regret.
"How about you resell this piece to me? I like to collect rare wood, and this piece of wood is as shiny as jade! It's really beautiful!"
They argued more and more lively.
The people around him stayed there for a long time... looking dumbfounded.
Who would have thought that a fire could turn into a big business?
Everyone looked at Wen Jin sourly. I'm afraid that Princess Huai had already made back her money, or even doubled her profits several times, right?
Wen Jin felt dizzy and exhausted...
Her bed, her pillow, she really wanted to go back to sleep... she couldn't hold it anymore.
"Everyone! Listen to me!"
Wen Jin cleared his throat, "The large pieces of wood have been sold to you. But there must be small pieces of beautiful wood under the ruins.
"My building needs to be rebuilt! For those of you who are familiar with the work of rebuilding this building, I will contract this work to you. No matter what wood is found underneath, it belongs to you.
"But I will no longer pay for the reconstruction. Of course, the reconstruction specifications must be according to my requirements. Finally, a third party will be present to check and accept it, and we will settle it.
"What do you think?"
When the wealthy businessmen heard this, they were eager to give it a try, but also very nervous.
This job... is just like gambling on stones! I have no idea whether it is jade or stone after cutting it open!
One is rich, the other is poor... The ruins haven't been cleared yet, and no one knows whether there is such a priceless "agarwood" down there.
How many pieces can there be? How big?
"I'm willing to take this job!" Someone is willing to take the gamble.
After all, rebuilding a building doesn't cost much, it just takes some effort at most.
In case there is more good wood underneath, it's easy to get back to where you started.
When one person spoke, many people figured it out and expressed their willingness.
Wen Jin felt dizzy and drowsy.
"Okay, it's up to you. When Ban Xia Feng Chun comes, you and he go to the government office to sign the deed..."
Wen Jinqiang pushed himself back to the carriage, "Wait!"
"What other instructions does the princess have?"
"Bring me the plaque of Mulan Academy!"
Wen Jin looked at the blackened plaque, and the line of writing became more and more dazzling.
"If you don't follow the rules and regulations, the world will be in chaos."
Wen Jin leaned against the wall of the carriage, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
She didn't even know when Yu Fei jumped on the carriage and covered her with a thin blanket.
It wasn't until the carriage stopped at Prince Huai's Mansion that Yu Fei woke her up.
"Have you found out? Who instigated the child and the woman?" Wen Jin asked.
Yu Fei shook his head, "They couldn't explain clearly. They described the appearance, but... it doesn't mean much."
There are so many people in the capital, and there is no "Sky Eye" system now, which is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"When we were purging the remnants of the crown prince, Prince Huai's Mansion was the first to bear the brunt and offended many people." Yu Fei whispered, "Now, Prince Huai's Mansion is the largest among all the princes. A tree that is as beautiful as the forest wind will destroy it."
There are too many enemies to find.
Wen Jin nodded, not disappointed.
Now she wanted to go back to her bed and have a good sleep.
As she was getting off the carriage, Xiao Yuchen hurried back from outside.
Without waiting for the horse to stand firm, he turned over and jumped off the horse. In a few short steps, he came to Wen Jin.
He looked at her up and down several times, his eyes slightly red.
"I'm fine..."
Before Wen Jin could finish speaking, he hugged Wen Jin tightly in his arms.
He patted Wen Jin on the back, "As long as it's okay... As long as it's okay, I'm so lucky..."
"Cough!" Yu Fei coughed heavily, "Brother-in-law, someone is here!"
Xiao Yuchen glared at her, "See no evil, won't you close your eyes?"
Yu Fei:......
Is he embarrassed to hug me? Why is she still embarrassed?
"I'm sleepy..." Wen Jin lay on Xiao Yuchen's shoulder, breathing in the familiar and reassuring smell, and his eyelids became heavier.
"Why is Jin'er so sleepy?"
When Xiao Yuchen helped her up, she was almost asleep.
"It consumes too much energy..." Yu Fei frowned, "I always find it a bit incredible that the fire can be extinguished so quickly..."
She stared at Wen Jin, thoughtfully.
Xiao Yuchen bent over and picked up Wen Jin.
"My plaque! Take my plaque with you!" Wen Jin mumbled like he was dreaming without opening his eyes.
Xiao Yuchen was confused, "What Bian?"
Yu Fei's face sank and he pulled out the huge door plaque from the car.
Xiao Yuchen saw the line of writing carved on the knife at a glance!
