Chapter 144 Is the Inspector of Yangzhou a beggar?
Everyone knows this family with a sharp-mouthed monkey-browed family, Liu Yao, a relative of the Han Dynasty.
In Yuan Shu's memory, this person later became the governor of Yangzhou. He had an army of 100,000 and was beaten by Sun Ce and thousands of people. He was simply a waste.
Yuan Shu didn't even have any interest in exploring this person.
As a clan of the royal family, Liu Yao was also rich, but compared with the bigwigs like the Wei family in Hedong and Yuan Shu who owned the Wanshan Chamber of Commerce, it was obviously not enough.
Wei Kai lost his mind when he saw the position of Yangzhou Governor, and directly raised his sign and said:
"Billion dollars!"
As soon as the billion yuan was released, the field was silent. No one expected that Wei Kai would be so cruel and directly soar to such a high price.
Wei Kai was quite satisfied with this scene.
He stood up, clasped his fists with his hands, and said to the top young men in the VIP area:
"Dear young men, my Wei family is bound to win this position as the "Governor of Yangzhou".
Please give Kai a little bit of shame, and my Wei family will be rewarded in the future!"
Many young men bowed and said:
"Brother Wei is polite. Since Brother Wei is interested in this position, we will not fight."
"That's right, I think this 'Yangzhou Governor' is Brother Wei."
It is already a sky-high price to buy an official position for one billion yuan. Most people are powerless even if they want to compete with Wei Kai. It is better to sell it with Wei Kai.
Just when Wei Kai was quite content, a discordant voice sounded:
"A billion is worthy of being the governor of Yangzhou?
Is the governor of Yangzhou a beggar?"
Everyone looked in the sound, and Yuan Shu sat on the chair with his legs crossed his head, looking at Wei Kai mockingly while eating snacks.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yuan Shu raised the price tag in his hand expressionlessly and said concisely:
"Two billion!"
Everyone looked at Yuan Shu in horror. Is there anyone who bid like this?
If you add one billion at once, aren’t you afraid of losing money?
It turns out that the Yuan family's financial resources are so strong that they are truly the leader of the aristocratic families in the world.
At this time, Wei Kai's mood was on the verge of collapse.
As the heir to the Hedong Wei family, he respected all the people he had dated.
But for some reason, since he met Yuan Shu, his luck has begun to become particularly unhappy.
Every time I have a conflict with Yuan Shu, I am very miserable and I am completely embarrassed.
Or, give up the "Governor of Yangzhou"?
Wei Kai suddenly felt a feeling of not wanting to continue competing with Yuan Shu anymore.
He quickly shook his head, no, Yuan Shu is already in great power now, if he gets Yangzhou again, it will further encourage his arrogance, and the Wei family will be in danger by then.
The Wei family still has 2.7 billion working capital, so it may not be impossible to give it a try.
When we arrived here first, Wei Kai gritted his teeth with red eyes:
"I'll pay 2.5 billion!"
The number of children of aristocratic families increased by 500 million at once, and all the children of the aristocratic families were looking at each other.
The position of the governor of Yangzhou is good, but is it really worth fighting for such a life-long battle?
Even if you really become the governor of Yangzhou, it will not be easy to get your money back within a few years!
But these young men didn't know that for Yuan Shu and Wei Kai, this was no longer a matter of money, but a battle of luck.
Yuan Shu continued to raise his hand with expressionless expression and called the price tag:
"Three billion!"
Everyone looked at Yuan Shu's expression and seemed to have not taken the 3 billion seriously at all.
Wei Kai's forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and his current pressure was beyond imagination for others.
Give up? He is unwilling to accept it.
But if he continues to bid, he really can't fight.
If it really doesn't work, I can only sell some ancestral property...
Wei Kai made a fuss and shouted:
"Three hundred million!"
Yuan Shu glanced at Wei Kai and felt that this person was so stingy that he only added 100 million yuan to the bid. No wonder Cai Wenji said that the two brothers were beggars.
He was really not interested in following Wei Kaimoji again, so he raised his sign and said:
"Five billion!"
Five billion!!
Hearing this amount, all the children of the aristocratic families present were stunned.
What's the situation?
It’s enough to buy a three-month position for 5 billion yuan, but it’s just a “Governor of Yangzhou”?!
No one is defeated like this, either!
He is worthy of being Yuan Shu and the number one prodigal son in Luoyang.
No, after this battle, I am afraid that Yuan Shu’s title of “the number one prodigal son in Luoyang” should have been changed.
It must be called "the world's number one prodigal son" to be worthy of Yuan Shu's behavior today.
Wei Kai was also stunned. He could not have thought that Yuan Shu would spend 5 billion yuan for the position of governor Zhou!
Even if he moved his Wei family to emptie, he wouldn't be able to pay so much money! How did Yuan Shu do it?
If Yuan Shu knew Wei Kai’s thoughts, he would definitely call him a poor man and a rustic man.
Now there are thirteen states in the Han Dynasty, each of which has a branch of the Wanshan Chamber of Commerce.
These prefectures and counties make at least tens of millions of dollars a day, and at most hundreds of millions of dollars.
For Yuan Shu, the five billion yuan was just the profit income of the Wanshan Chamber of Commerce for more than ten days.
Once this price was released, not only Wei Kai could compete, but all the young masters bowed their heads in disgrace.
The happiest thing is Zhang Rang.
At the beginning, his expectation for the position of "Yangzhou Governor" was that he could be sold at most one billion yuan.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu was so powerful that he won the "Governor of Yangzhou" at a sky-high price of 5 billion.
He felt even more fond of Yuan Shu.
Zhang Rang announced on the high platform:
"Our family announced that Yuan Shu and Yuan won the position of "Governor of Yangzhou"!
Lord Yuan spent 5 billion yuan on this auction. When our family handed the money to His Majesty, we will definitely mention Lord Yuan’s loyalty to him to His Majesty.”
Yuan Shu also bowed respectfully to Zhang Rang:
"Respect your Majesty is what our great ministers should do.
The craft is just to provide His Majesty with some money, and I have to thank Mr. Zhang for his kind words before His Majesty.
Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely manage Yangzhou well for him.”
After hearing Yuan Shu's words, Zhang Rang felt happy.
Based on his understanding of Yuan Shu, the "thank you" that Yuan Shu just said was not just a verbal statement.
I guess I will have a considerable income again.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for spending 5.4 billion yuan at the Xiyuan Auction to win the official position of "Governor of Yangzhou".
Perfectly completed the limited-time spending mission.
The host receives 2 reward attribute points and a reputation value of 1.08 million.
Is the host settled the task?"
"Close it now." Yuan Shu felt that he suddenly became rich, with a reputation of 1.08 million. When did he have so much reputation?!
"Ding! is checking. According to the host's previous settings, the system will automatically add attribute points to luck.
After the attribute points are added, the host attribute skills are as follows:
Force: 50, Command: 55 (Skill Greedy Wolf 5), Intelligence: 55 (Skill Greedy Wolf 5), Politics: 55, Charm: 55, Luck: 70.

The current remaining reputation value of the host is: 1.1 million.”
After adding the two lucky values, Yuan Shu's luck value reached 70 points.
Chapter completed!
