What does covert shooting mean? Not to mention that the people in the Flower Pavilion are confused, and the people outside are also confused, Ma Song specially came out to explain, "Send each family a piece of paper, write the name, use a seal in the middle, write two prices respectively, and each household can't see the bids of the rest of the people, so that after receiving it, the price code will be announced one by one, and the highest bidder will win." ”

This is a strange thing, whether it happened elsewhere, the big guy doesn't know, but in Yangzhou City, everyone has never seen this set, and they don't know how effective it is, the people standing outside looked at each other, and the gray-haired Shangguan Yunfei stepped forward and came to Liu Bingde, "Liu Lao, look, Lord Xue's set, can it be done?" ”

Liu Bingde didn't see the embarrassment of being refuted by Xue Pan in the hall just now, he just drank tea very indifferently, seeing that Shangguan Yunfei was a little worried, he didn't explain anything, "What are you anxious about?" Whether this thing can be done or not, I will see it in a while, there are more than 9,000 salt quotations horizontally and vertically, and everyone divides them together, and they can't get many sheets. ”

"But I'm afraid there's something wrong here."

Shangguan Yunfei was concerned about the chaos, Liu Bingde shook his head, "You still don't know the current situation, Lord Xue doesn't want anyone's net worth, you said that this Shi family, he himself is not a good person, that is, he deserves to die, no one can save him, but Rao is so, it is just to pay the salt, Lord Xue's meaning is very clear, it is nothing more than asking for silver, are our salt merchants short of silver?" ”

"Naturally, there is no shortage, but this ......"

"There is no shortage of anything else to say," Liu Bingde closed his eyes, too lazy to talk nonsense with Shangguan Yunfei, and said straightforwardly, "The court wants silver, we were originally worried that Xue Pan would mess up, but now it's good, the one with the highest price will get it, concise and clear, no one will say anything, in this case, hand over the silver, and the salt can come back, isn't it a good thing?" What's more, this silver is spent on the bright side, whoever spends a lot of money to buy more salt, no one will criticize anything, and the court will think that you are loyal, but it is happier and more effective than giving any gifts! In this verse, don't pay attention to the mistakes, ignore the mistakes, and there will be a mistake in this action! Not to mention anything else, the Hou family is still outside, oh, come in? That's okay, let's take a look at the loyalty of the Hou family later, right? ”

A group of people were waiting outside, Li Rubang hurriedly ran out, didn't say hello to the big guy, walked out of the door, and instructed Ma Jiuying, who was driving, "Hurry up and go to the Lin Mansion to take a look, and ask Mama Wang, how is Mrs. Gu's body?" Uncle is anxious to know! ”

"Yes, I'll go now," Ma Jiuying hurriedly said, "What do you mean by uncle, what do you want the news to spread immediately?" ”

"Yes, the news over there is the most important!"

Li Rubang gave the order, so he turned around again, and walked through the crowd to the front of the Wuhua Pavilion, but someone stopped Li Rubang again, "Steward Li," Hou Jing stopped Li Rubang with a smile, "Little Lao'er wants to face Master Xue, I don't know if Lord Xue can let Xiao Lao'er see him?" ”

"At this time, it's not good," Li Rubang knew the importance of Hou Jing's person, and it was not good to talk nonsense at will, so he said very politely, "Our uncle is assigning the first batch of salt bidding, and when the second batch begins, Hou Lao will go in with everyone." ”

As soon as Li Rubang's words fell, there was a sudden roar in the Wuhua Pavilion, and someone came out to spread the word, and said happily to the people outside the Wuhua Pavilion, "The first 300 pieces of salt are owned by the Zhao family on Ma Teng Road, and the bid is 189,450 taels!" ”

The first salt quotation was auctioned for nearly 190,000 taels of silver, and the price was ...... It sounds very scary, but in fact, there is nothing to know at all, each piece of salt is only more than six hundred taels of silver, and if these six hundred taels of silver have to be spread over ten years, each year is only sixty taels of silver, which is nothing at all for a profitable salt industry.

Everyone was speculating about their respective bids, and felt that something was wrong, the Sang family and the Ma family were in the field, and they should not let such a low price lead the three hundred pieces of salt away easily, so they hurriedly surrounded Li Rubang, Li Rubang said with a smile, "The two families are sympathetic to the little salt merchant, and they said that in the first few times, they will not bid, let the big guy do it themselves!" ”

Wow, that's a great way to be righteous! The big guys praised one after another, giving such a big dignity to the people of the small family, the Zhao family on Ma Tenglu had no name and no surname, and the little salt merchant who was not famous actually grabbed three hundred salt quotations, so it was not a problem to become a well-known figure among the salt merchants.

This first salt quote is still a tentative price, and later, the price soared again and again, and the average price of a salt quote went from more than 600, to more than 700, to more than 900, and then to the back, directly breaking 1,000! More than 9,000 pieces of salt leads, the highest price appeared, this is the ninth auction, 450 pieces of salt leads, was robbed by the Sang family: "675,000 taels!" ”

The advantage of the dark bid for Xue Pan is that compared with the auction on the scene, no one knows who paid the higher price, and for the one with the highest price, the next round of bidding, everyone must measure, and then out of the previous low price, I am afraid that it will not be able to get it, it can only be higher than the previous round of bidding price, otherwise it will be a bamboo basket to draw water, so the price is rising, to the Sang family this round, it has exceeded the average price of 1,500 taels of salt, but then it did not exceed this price, In the second round, someone won 50 salt citations at a price of 800 taels, which cost 40,000 yuan, which is not very expensive.

More than 9,000 pieces of salt quotations were auctioned in a moment, Li Rubang posted the winning bidders in this round, everyone gathered around and watched without scruples, the Ma family and the Sang family were equally divided, a total of more than 1,000 pieces of salt quotations, and the rest belonged to the small salt merchants present to divide equally, and the small salt merchants became the big winners, but the Ma family and the Sang family did not lose money, and they almost made up for the salt quotations handed over before.

There is also the Qiao family, the Qiao family grabbed five hundred and sixty salt quotations at once, which was the first thing that opened the world in this dynasty, marking the beginning of the Shanxi people in the salt merchants.

The bidding price here is more than nine million, this is just a small part of the salt, the big head has not yet appeared, many people in the Eight King Kongs couldn't help but show serious expressions, today's posture, I am afraid that it is not a little bit of silver can be a small broad, and the family will not fall or go to the next level.
