Luo Lifu didn't know what Lu Chen was thinking about. Her current focus was on completing the task Lu Chen had given her.
"The first item to be auctioned is two colorful glass balls!" As Luo Lifu said, she stretched out her palms to gesture to the display table. The maid on the side unveiled the red cloth and revealed two glass balls with colored cores. They appeared directly on the tray, and from visual inspection alone, the size of these two glazed balls was definitely much larger than the ones Lu Chen "sold" to Du Fuwei. As for whether they were larger than the ones Lu Chenjin offered to Li Yuan, That's unknown.
As soon as these two glazed balls appeared, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Sure enough, it's a good thing!" Cui Xian's eyes lit up when he saw the dazzling glass ball in the sun, and he became more determined to recruit Qian Junnan. The patriarchs of several other aristocratic families also had the same idea. .
"The starting price is ten guan, and each increase must not be less than 10 guan. You can bid now!" Luo Lifu was quite satisfied with the expressions of these people. To be honest, when she first saw these glazed products, she was also She was extremely excited and uneasy, but after seeing Lu Chen being so dismissive of these things, Luo Lifu became more and more in awe of Lu Chen.
"Eleven consistent!" As soon as Luo Lifu finished speaking, someone shouted directly and held up a sign.
Unexpectedly, as soon as someone shouted "Eleven Guan", a sarcastic voice came from the side: "Such a treasure, the asking price is so low, I don't know how you got in here! Fifty Guan!" Accompanying With a sarcastic voice, the person directly raised a placard to signal a bid of fifty guan. When everyone looked for the voice, they discovered that the voice came from the box on the second floor, and the person holding the placard was a handsome young man in rich clothes. This person looked at everyone downstairs with a smile on his face.
Those who knew this person directly said to their friends: "I didn't expect that Lu Chengqing, the eldest son of the Fan Yang Lu family, is here too!"
It is said that Lu Chisong, the head of Fanyanglu clan, had a son. This son was handsome and knowledgeable, but he rarely appeared in front of others. He never thought that he would show up here today.
Lu Chen sat in the box and took a look at the eldest son of the Lu family and the future heir to Duke Fan Yang.
"It seems that Lu Xiandi has hooked up a lot of people this time!" Qin Qiong also looked at Lu Chengqing and said to Chai Shao next to him. At this time, Qin Qiong, Chai Shao, Zhang Shigui and others were sitting in Chai Shao's box. In fact, this box was left by Lu Chen to Li Xiuning, but Li Xiuning didn't come, so naturally the box was used by Chai Shao.
As for Cheng Yaojin, this guy insisted on sitting down and watching the fun, and was unwilling to sit in the box with everyone. As for this guy's character, these people knew it, so they didn't force him.
"It is said that wealth touches people's hearts. It would be strange if these people don't stand out!" After hearing Qin Qiong's words, Chai Shao sneered and said.
It was suddenly raised to fifty guan, and the bidder was still the eldest son of the Fan Yang Lu family. Suddenly many people stopped raising their voices. It wasn't that they couldn't come up with more money, but they were unwilling to pay for such a first auction item. Then he went to offend the Fan Yang Lu family.
Lu Chengqing was quite satisfied with the effect and scanned the crowd below wantonly.
After waiting for about a few minutes, Luo Lifu saw that no one was bidding, so she directly asked: "Who else wants to increase the price? This is my first time in fifty gold!"
Just when Luo Lifu finished speaking, a voice rang directly: "Fifty-five guan!" Everyone looked for the reputation and wanted to see who was so disrespectful to Lu Chengqing, but they saw Cheng Yaojin. He held up the good cards in his right hand and grinned at everyone.
Originally, Lu Chengqing thought that it was a sure thing that he would own the pair of glazed balls. However, at this moment, he heard Cheng Yaojin's harsh voice. Lu Chengqing, who was still smiling and somewhat complacent, suddenly wanted to see Seeing who was so disrespectful to him, Lu Chengqing's expression immediately changed when he saw Cheng Yaojin's big face smiling at him.
In fact, before coming to this auction, those aristocratic families got together to discuss it. Although they all heard that there were a lot of glass products auctioned at this auction, these aristocratic families were not fools and did not want to blindly compete with each other. Therefore, , we got together and held a "meeting meeting" a few days ago to discuss countermeasures, that is, no matter how many rounds the auction goes on and how many lots there are, the bidding will be carried out in order, one lot and one family will win. As for the order of bidding, it is naturally carried out in the most traditional way, that is, "drawing lots", and the Fanyang Lu family is the first family to appear.
Of course, if the auction round is not enough to satisfy all the noble families, the noble families that have obtained the auction items will have to negotiate with other noble families who failed to purchase the colored glaze products and sell them to other noble families at a reasonable price. This is called " The benefits are shared equally."
Lu Chengqing, who had already made good plans, thought that if Wu Guan bought these two glazed balls, if he needed to sell them to other aristocratic families, he would have to recoup at least half of his original investment. Unfortunately, he never expected that, with his reputation as the Fan Yang Lu family, The name is not something that can be tried and proven, and there is also the troublemaker Cheng Yaojin coming out below.
"You want to take away my glass ball for fifty dollars. What a beautiful idea you have!" Seeing Lu Chengqing's expression change several times, Lu Chen snorted coldly. Regarding these gatherings of aristocratic families, Lu Chen was in Luolifu. So I know, who allowed these people from the noble family to go to Pingkangfang to "have a meeting" without any problem? With Luo Lifu's power in Pingkangfang, how could they not find out that they were having a meeting?
Of course, Luo Lifu only knew that these aristocratic families gathered together in Pingkangfang. Luo Lifu still couldn't find out what they said specifically, but Lu Chen was not a fool. Why did these aristocratic families come to Chang'an? You can think of anything to study together with your heels. It's just two things, either for the auction or for yourself.
But since the time point is so close to the auction, it is natural to focus more on the auction.
Since you want to play, then Lu Chen will naturally accompany you to the end. After all, these glass products are also his own. At worst, he can let these princes bid for them and then take them back!
Lu Chen naturally discussed it with Cheng Yaojin and others in advance. Whenever there was a cold reception and the price was unreasonable, these princes would raise the price.
This is called "You have a good plan, I have a ladder", see who can kill whom!
"Sixty strikes!" Although Lu Chengqing felt a little unhappy, there was nothing he could do against Cheng Yaojin. After all, Cheng Yaojin was the Duke of Su. No matter how powerful the Fan Yang Lu family was, he did not dare to have the confidence to say that he could control a man with military exploits. The illustrious Duke Lu Chengqing directly gave his quotation again.
"Seventy!" It was the same rhythm again, and when Luo Lifu was asking for the first time, Cheng Yaojin raised his sign to bid again.
"seventy-five!"
"eighty!"
"Mr. Su Guo, are you deliberately targeting me, the Fan Yang Lu family?" After calling out the price, Lu Chengqing frowned and looked at Cheng Yaojin and asked, his tone obviously full of displeasure.
"Da Lang of the Lu family, what you said is wrong!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Lu Chengqing's unhappy expression and said with a smile, "These treasures naturally go to the one with the highest price, although I don't It seems that your Lu family has a big business, but you still have these small properties. After your Lu family bids, don't others be allowed to bid? Then what's the point of this auction? You, the Lu family, can just bid to buy it! "Cheng Yaojin sneered directly at Lu Chengqing, which made Lu Chengqing's handsome face turn red and white, and his teeth gritted.
"Why don't you just kick us all out, and you, Mr. Lu, can buy these glazed products yourself!" Cheng Yaojin said directly to Lu Chengqing with a serious face.
"Okay! I want to see if you can keep up!" Lu Chengqing gritted his teeth and glared at Cheng Yaojin.
"Eighty-one!" Cheng Yaojin ignored Lu Chengqing and raised his sign again.
"You..." As soon as he heard the price called by Cheng Yaojin, Lu Chengqing immediately knew that Cheng Yaojin was targeting Chi Guoguo against him. It was five points and five points in the past, but now it has become the same. .
Cheng Yaojin naturally saw the way Lu Chengqing looked at him. If Cheng Yaojin cared about him, he would not be Cheng Yaojin. Cheng Yaojin directly gave Lu Chengqing a look and held up his number plate.
"This guy is really good at Gonghuo!" Seeing Cheng Yaojin's appearance, Lu Chen couldn't help but smile and muttered to himself.
"ninety!"
"ninety one!"
Cheng Yaojin and Lu Chengqing are close. Whenever Lu Chengqing bids the price, Cheng Yaojin will definitely give you a "plus one". This will make Lu Chengqing extremely angry, but what Cheng Yaojin said earlier is out there. The two can only compete on price.
"One hundred and fifty gold!" Lu Chengqing obviously didn't want to compete with Cheng Yaojin anymore, so he shouted a high price again, and at the same time glanced at Cheng Yaojin contemptuously, "Mr. Su Guo, if you are higher than this price, what will happen to you?" So what if I give you two glazed balls to Duke Su?" Lu Chengqing gave Cheng Yaojin a provocative look.
"This is what you said!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Lu Chengqing and said loudly.
"That's right! I said that!" Lu Chengqing nodded directly, staring at the number plate in Cheng Yaojin's hand.
"Okay!" Cheng Yaojin directly raised the number plate, and everyone was waiting for Cheng Yaojin's bid. At this time, these people had obviously forgotten their intention to come to the auction, and they were full of expectations to see This drama of competing for bids has come to an end.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin raised his number plate high, but with this guy's next words, Lu Chengqing, who was so out of breath, fell headlong from the box on the second floor.
