Anyone can sum up the past events and rules, so the news that Cheng Guogong's small county master celebrated his birthday this time, shocked everyone in Kyoto.
But because everyone knows the auction board
The license is very expensive. Anyone who has an auction license can get millions of dollars in exchange for it. Who doesn't know how lucrative it is to set up an auction
When Xu Yi and Xia Zimo arrived, the ten-mile-long street in front of the Duke's Mansion was crowded with congratulators and guests, and there was a lot of traffic.
"This way, this way..."
Xia Zimo pulled Xu Yi and squeezed his way out of the crowd, pointing to a ridiculously tall gilt-bronze doorway, "Aren't you classy, let's enter through this door."
It was only then that Xu Yi saw a sign outside the door, and then scanned left and right to understand.
It turned out that the Duke's Mansion had already made preparations and opened several doors, corresponding to the identities of the congratulators from each party.
The one in front of me, especially magnificent, is obviously the main entrance.
Da Yue is famous and noble, and has the highest status as an official, even surpassing the second generation of nobles who have not achieved fame.
Xu Yi showed off his blue jade ring, accepted the simple verification, and easily led Xia Zimo into the Duke's Mansion.
Entering the mansion, there are yellow shirts holding pens and ink, sitting horizontally in front of them, and the new congratulators in front of them each take out their gold tickets and submit their names.
Xu Yi did not expect that the dignified Duke's Mansion would not even hide his greed, summoned a golden ticket with a thousand gold, and stepped forward.
If it wasn't for the license plate in his heart, Xu Yi really wanted to give it to Zhang Shijin.
Huang Shaner was about to take it, but Xia Zimo took the lead, took away Xu Yi's gold ticket, handed over a gold ticket, and said with a smile, "Xu Yi from ten households, He Yi's 20,000 gold!"
Huang Shan'er recorded it as she said, slipped a sign out of her sleeve, and slipped it into Xia Zimo's hand quietly.
Xia Zimo remained calm and pulled Xu Yi away.
Naturally, Xu Yi couldn't hide this action, so he asked aloud, Xia Zimo was just pretending to be profound, and didn't answer, he pulled Xu Yi through the arch and into the courtyard.
Not long after, Xu Yi saw the jade plaque in her hand glowing faintly, and then, pulled by Xia Zimo, she came to another arched door. At this time, more than twenty congratulators had arrived.
Everyone filed in, and before everyone entered, they would covertly return the jade plaque to the gatekeeper.
After entering the door, the atmosphere is steep and relaxed, and you can hear all kinds of voices.
"How much do you spend?"
"Twenty-three thousand!"
"This time is very evil, Mr. Zhang spent 18,000 yuan, and he didn't come in!"
"That's right, how could there be such a price in previous years, 15,000, you will be shortlisted!"
"..."
Xu Yi heard some tricks, quietly grabbed Xia Zimo and said, "You have done your homework comprehensively."
Obviously, Xia Zimo will be able to act smoothly if he is prepared.
Xia Zimo said proudly, "That is, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. If you don't have me, you Xu Shihu will have great abilities, and you will have nothing to do."
"Chengqing, Chengqing!" Xu Yi cupped his fists and said, "You haven't told me the key yet?"
Xia Zimo said, "Guang Chengqing, didn't you show anything? Forget it, write down this account first. Anyway, you owe me a lot of debts, so it's not bad..."
Immediately, Xia Zimo revealed the inside story.
It turned out that the sale of the license plate of Duke Cheng's Mansion had become a grand event in Beijing.
Cheng Guogong's family has always been mature and prudent, and knows how to advance and retreat. After the auction license plate showed great value, Cheng Guogong's family did not dare to be self-reliant, and secretly connected with the royal family, inviting the royal family to share the benefits.
With the royal family involved, the squeeze on auction licenses is intensifying.
Huang Shan'er, who previously charged the entry fee, was dispatched by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He specially selected the top 20 or more according to the amount of gift money, and participated in the next round of competition.
Just now, if Xia Zimo allowed Xu Yi to pay the thousand gold, Xu Yi would automatically be wiped out of the possibility of moving forward.
Hearing these tricks, Xu Yi clicked his tongue secretly, "This is not selling a license plate, it's clearly a scam!"
Xia Zimo raised a green finger and shook it again and again, "Can you talk about selling the affairs of the Duke's Mansion? They choose the best ones as gifts!"
Xu Yi shook his head and smiled wryly. Following Xia Zimo's progress, passing through a long and gorgeous corridor, the scene in front of him became brighter and brighter. Flying pavilions flowed like pills, and colorful buildings were like forests. After a while, dozens of people entered from all directions. , obviously, this is entered from other side doors.
After a brief scan, the venue was roughly divided into four groups, one group was wealthy businessmen, one group was new scholars, one group was young nobles, and the last group was Xu Yi and other officials.
The crowd gathers,
At this moment, an old man in red robes led a group of servants in blue clothes to the front, and said in a loud voice, "The chief steward of the Duke's Mansion, Lao Nu, on behalf of my master, I would like to thank all distinguished guests for coming. My master appreciates your kindness. The mansion is narrow, and I am afraid that everyone will come in, so it is impossible to arrange it. How about this, since you are here to celebrate the birthday of the little princess, except for the congratulations, you must have prepared something for the little princess. Why don't you hand over the gadgets to the old slave first The face is the little princess, and the little princess will decide the candidate."
Xu Yi secretly vomited. The scene that the Duke's Mansion had tossed about challenged his imagination. It was unheard of for him to ask for money in public.
But looking around, everyone is safe and sound, obviously as expected.
A license plate is worth millions, but with the efforts of all the people, how much more than tens of millions can the Duke's Mansion earn today
In an instant, the servant in Tsing Yi walked up to him and handed out a treasure box. Xu Yi opened it, but it was empty. Just as he was curious, Xia Zimo put a stack of gold tickets into the box. The servant took it and returned a jade Card.
"Send money?"
Xu Yi said via voice transmission, "How much?"
Xia Zimo said, "You don't care how much it is, you are guaranteed to enter. In this kind of scene, no matter what treasure you give, it will still be converted into money at the end of the day, and you can simply give money."
Not long after, a group of servants in green clothes took the treasure box and left. After half a stick of incense, countless beeps sounded, among which was the jade card in Xia Zimo's hand.
Suddenly someone exclaimed, "My fifty thousand gold!" After shouting, he fell down on his head.
For the rest of the people, there are naturally some people who are happy, some people are worried, such as those who are mourning their concubines, there are quite a few of them.
Xu Yi was stunned, "Fifty thousand gold is not enough, how much did you put away!"
The license plate is worth millions, but everyone in the venue is not a fool. Anyone who is stupid enough to think that he will definitely win it will naturally estimate the opportunity cost.
Counting the sum of money delivered to Huang Shan'er earlier, 70,000 gold is not enough to enter the inner palace, so the opportunity cost is already too high.
Xia Zimo said, "Don't worry about how much it is, don't let this girl's money go to waste!"
Accompanied by the congratulatory sound of the old man in red robes, everyone took jade cards and entered one by one.
"Sorry, you two are not allowed in."
The servant in Tsing Yi took away Xia Zimo's jade token, but spit out this sentence.
