Chapter 306 Auction (Second update, asking for diamonds)
Wine and delicacies are served one after another, and the fun begins.
After Luo Zhang clapped his hands, several maids walked onto the high platform each carrying a tray.
The tray was covered with red cloth, so it was not possible to see clearly what was inside, causing everyone in the audience and upstairs to speculate.
Luo Zhang didn't show any concern. He directly opened the red cloth on the first tray and said loudly: "I guess you all drank that wine just now. What do you think?"
“Good wine!”
“This wine is indeed the best!”
"Yes, the best wine, but it's just a little missing!"
“This wine tasting conference is well-deserved!”
“I will definitely attend such wine tasting conferences in the future!”
"Then you need an invitation. This invitation is indeed worth tens of thousands of dollars now!"
"Hahaha, that old guy, Fatty Wang, sold the invitation, and now I'm afraid he will regret it to death!"
After listening to everyone's answers, Luo Zhang smiled knowingly and said: "Then do you still want to buy more?"
"I think so, of course I do!"
"Hey, Luo Zhang, you have to bring some back to me. You can't let this good thing go to waste!"
"That's right, you must get some for us. I haven't had enough yet!"
"Now the opportunity has come. Have you seen what's on the tray? It's the wine you just drank. This wine is called Maotai. It is brewed exclusively by me. I dare say that this is the only one in Chang'an, no, in the entire Tang Dynasty.
No semicolon. Didn’t someone just say it’s not enough? Now we have Moutai wine. The price starts at one thousand taels per gourd. The highest bidder will get it. There are ten gourds in total. You can buy them one by one. Don’t force yourself. This gourd has no
If you take a picture, you can take one, ten gourds in total, until all the pictures are taken." Luo Zhang held a gourd in one hand and a small hammer in the other and knocked on the specially built podium in front of him.
"Auction? Is this the auction mentioned in the promotion?"
"Isn't the price a bit high? One thousand taels per gourd? Then didn't I just drink a thousand taels?"
"It's a big deal, it's really a big deal. There are over a hundred people here today, and the wine just given here costs over 100,000 taels of silver."
"This Luo Zhang is really powerful. No one else would do such a loss-making business!"
"Do you want this wine? If no one wants it, give it a try!"
I don't know who suddenly said such a sentence, attracting the people who were just talking about Luo Zhang's generosity.
Yes, what does Luo Zhanghua have to do with them? The fine wine on this high platform has something to do with them.
Luo Zhang looked at the situation below and smiled slightly. The person who just shouted was his person. If these people were to continue talking, he didn't know how long it would take. He didn't want to waste time. Naturally, he wanted to attract the attention of these people.
In the past, there was nothing wrong with playing tricks.
When Luo Zhang secretly praised his wise decision, he heard someone in the audience shout: "One thousand taels!"
"Such a fine wine, you want to take it away just for one thousand taels. What a dream, I will give you one thousand one hundred taels!"
"I'll offer one thousand two hundred taels! As everyone shouted the price, everyone was not stupid. They quickly understood the rules, that is, whoever offers a higher price than others, and no one exceeds your price, then this thing
It's yours.
Yes, people in the Tang Dynasty are really curious about this novel auction. Most of them buy and sell individually. They really don't put things up like this. People just shout out the price. This kind of bidding is very exciting.
.
It was still Luo Zhang who was bidding and talking before. People in the Tang Dynasty did not understand auctions. Luo Zhang would naturally guide them and tell them what was going on. It would be interesting when they knew how to do it. You must know that people in the Tang Dynasty learned things very quickly.
Hurry, there will be a good show soon.
"I'll pay you one thousand three hundred taels!"
After a moment of silence, someone raised his hand and shouted.
Luo Zhang turned his eyes and couldn't help but feel happy. The person bidding was not the person downstairs, but the person on the third floor, Li Daozong, the Minister of Punishment!
I didn't expect that he would be the first to eat crabs. It seems that this guy is also a good drinker.
"On the third floor, someone bids one thousand three hundred taels. Is there anyone else who bids? I'll count to three. If no one bids, the gourd Moutai will belong to the person on the third floor!" Luo Zhang glanced around and said,
He knocked the small hammer and said.
But even though Luo Zhang said it twice, no one increased the price. Luo Zhang sneered in his heart, everyone thought that the price could be controlled by you? Just have your spring and autumn dreams!
"Bang bang bang!"
With three small hammers hitting the small wooden block next to the podium, there were three sounds, and the first lot was finally sold for one thousand three hundred taels.
To say that Luo Zhang is at a loss, Luo Zhang is not at a loss at all. One bottle of Moutai can be exchanged for ten gourds, and the exchange rate for one bottle of Moutai in the system is 10,000 points, which means that one gourd requires one thousand points, which is one thousand points.
Two, Luo Zhang's starting price is one thousand taels, no matter how much he bids, he will make a profit.
Of course, Luo Zhangruo still has to work hard if he wants to make back the money he spent on drinking.
When the No. 1 lot was carried off the high platform to the third floor, Luo Zhang said with a smile: "Okay, there are ten gourds of fine wine in total, and now there are only nine gourds. If you want to buy it, you should buy it early. It will be late.
Gone!"
This speech is different from what Luo Zhang said before. Before, he told everyone not to rush. There are ten gourds. This is because everyone does not understand the auction process yet, so naturally there is no rush. Now everyone knows how to auction, so naturally they have to use it.
Use some means to stimulate the dignitaries, wealthy businessmen in front of you, otherwise Luo Zhang would earn three hundred taels per gourd of wine, and then Luo Zhang would still be at his grandma's house.
When the second gourd was served, there was no need for Luo Zhang to explain the opening remarks, and some impatient people raised the price.
"One thousand three hundred taels!"
This person shouted out the price of the previous bottle. Before he thought about it, the bottle was only sold for 1,300 taels. If he just paid 1,300 taels, wouldn't this gourd of wine belong to him?
But this person seems to have forgotten one thing, and that is what Luo Zhang said before, the one with the highest price gets it.
Before he could be happy for too long, someone shouted out the price of one thousand four hundred taels. This shout made the face of the person who had just bid change slightly. He wanted to see who was shouting the price, but found that he couldn't see it at all.
Looking at the situation around them, they were all in separate boxes. Seeing this, they could only shake their heads and smile bitterly.
One thousand four hundred taels seemed to be just the beginning, like a clarion call for charge. Many people naturally refused to be outdone after figuring out the rules.
"One thousand five hundred taels!"
"One thousand eight hundred taels!"
"Two thousand taels!"
In the end, the second Hulu Moutai was sold at a price twice as high as the starting price!
This scene made many people marvel. At the same time, they also thought that this method was good. In this way, there would be less unnecessary fights and no need to waste words when buying things. If you want it, you can, as long as your price is higher than mine.
There are also some smart people who thought about putting their treasures on the market for sale.
I decided to wait until the wine tasting conference was over to inquire with the people here.
As one gourd and one gourd of Maotai were auctioned, the price also went up. The price of one gourd was much higher than that of another gourd.
When the ninth Hulu Maotai was auctioned, the price had soared to 3,500 taels.
Because at this time, everyone realized that the wine was almost gone, but there were still many people who wanted to buy it, so they naturally increased the auction price to compete, which caused the price to continue to rise.
Li Daozong, the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, who bought the first gourd, was extremely lucky. He only spent 1,300 taels on his first gourd, which meant that he could earn 2,200 taels of silver now without using the gourd wine.
This is much more than what he would have earned as the Minister of Justice. It is simply unimaginable!
The last gourd can be said to have pushed the auction of Moutai liquor to a climax. The price directly exceeded the four thousand tael mark. This was the last gourd. If you don’t buy it, it will be gone. Many people secretly regretted it. Why didn’t they do it earlier?
Shoot, otherwise we wouldn’t be fighting for the last gourd now.
In the end, the price was fixed at 4,200 taels, and it was bought by a person from the first level whom Luo Zhang didn't know well. Looking at him with a proud look, he looked like a commander-in-chief who had won a battle.
De Luo Zhang secretly laughed in his heart.
Chapter completed!
