"Sir's letter..."

Luo Lan couldn't help but her heart palpitated, but she checked the paint and opened the envelope calmly.

To her disappointment, when she looked at the font, it was still written by Tang Xiaobei.

As a qualified shopkeeper, Luo Lan quickly suppressed his distracting thoughts and unfolded the letter.

Halfway through, his expression became more and more solemn.

Putting away the letter, Luo Lan couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Sir, can you really make water jade?"

Luo Lan looked at Tang Fei and asked with a trembling voice.

Tang Fei did not answer, but opened the baggage he carried with him, carefully took out a wooden box and handed it to Luo Lan.

"This is what sir asked me to give to you."

Luo Lan took it with both hands and carefully placed it on the table.

Check that there is no problem with the seal and then open it.

The bottom of the wooden box is a thick wooden board with two rows of small holes dug into it. Each small hole contains a glass bead, the big one is about the same as a walnut, the small one is only the size of a peanut, and there are several colors.

"Sir, you actually made a water jade!"

Even though Luo Lan was mentally prepared, seeing it with his own eyes, his breathing still became faster involuntarily.

When Dakang was still strong, many Hu merchants from the Western Regions came to Dakang to do business and brought jade beads from the west.

Its round shape and crystal clear characteristics are rare among gemstones. It immediately attracted a large number of dignitaries and became popular.

Nowadays, the trade routes in the Western Regions have been blocked due to the war, and the value of jade has been rising steadily. Moreover, there are fewer and fewer of them on the market in recent years, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them.

The most valuable tribute that the Japanese envoys gave to Emperor Dakang was a set of water jade beads snatched from pirates.

Chen Ji took out a reward and gave it to a prince. The prince excitedly led his whole family to kowtow in the direction of the palace.

Such precious water jade beads, Jin Feng now sent a whole box!

Luo Lan tried to calm down, carefully closed the box, and shouted towards the door:

"Axia, go and ask Brother Hammer to come over!"

…

The auction of the first batch of black knives was over, and Luo Lan bought a larger house not far from the Chamber of Commerce, and specially transformed it into an auction house according to the drawings provided by Jin Feng.

Now Jinchuan Auction House has become well-known in the capital. Not only does it auction the Xihewan Black Knife, but many people also send their treasures to be auctioned, and the auction house collects corresponding fees.

This is the first auction house in Dakang, and there are many people interested. Many people come to every auction, and there are simply not enough seats.

It cost a lot of money to buy and renovate the wooden building where the auction house was located. It would definitely not work to move to a bigger place. Luo Lan couldn't think of a good solution, so she had to write to Tang Xiaobei and Jin Feng

Ask for help.

Who knew that Jin Feng actually wrote her a reply and suggested using the ticket system.

To put it bluntly, you have to buy a ticket to enter.

When Luo Lan saw this proposal in the letter, she thought Jin Feng was crazy.

Who does business without asking customers to come to their door?

Well, Jin Feng, you have to buy a ticket to enter the store. Doesn't this drive customers away?

But Jin Feng strongly requested this, so Luo Lan had no choice but to bite the bullet and implement it.

The results were unexpectedly good. Not only did the auction house's business not deteriorate, but the transaction rate actually increased a lot compared to before.

Only later did Luo Lan figure it out.

Whether it is a black knife or something sent for auction by others, it can easily cost hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver. Those who are truly capable of participating in the auction will not care about the ticket price at all.

Even if the best private room, they leaked the point.

Basically, they are boring people who care about the tickets. They are purely to see the lively, and they also make the auction's smoke.

Many really purchasing officials, but because of these idlers, they feel that the auction is too low to come and not want to come.

The ticket system was implemented, and this group of noses were blocked out of the door at once, which greatly improved the auction of the auction.

What made Luo Lan even more was that the emperor Chen Yan also heard of the auction house, and he ran over and participated in it curiously.

The emperor participated in person, and it was better than any advertisement.

The reputation of the auction house was good. After the emperor came, the business was even more prosperous.

Luo Lan is also a smart man. The emperor left the next day and announced the best private room.

However, the price of the room on both sides of the emperor's private room turned three times.

Even so, each time auction, these two private rooms will be booked early.

Tickets in other private rooms and lobby seats have also risen.

Before each auction, Luo Lan will choose a few products and exhibitions at the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce window in advance to build momentum for the auction.

After receiving the glass beads, Luo Lan immediately removed the products of the original exhibition and replaced it with his own glass beads.

The glass beads currently appearing in Dayang are green, and the light transmission is not high.

The three glass beads exhibited by Luo Lan are different in each color, and the light transmission is good.

Once exhibited, it immediately attracted the attention of passers -by.

"Hurry up, the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce has exhibited new products again!"

"What do you see, can you afford the things in the Jinchuan Chamber of Commerce?"

"Can't buy it, can't you have a long history?"

"My God, what gem is this, it's so beautiful!"

"It seems like water jade? I used to go to Liu Gongzi's house and met water jade once, similar to this, but Liu Gongzi's water jade is much smaller, and there is no good look!"

"Brother Cui bullied me, haven't you seen the water jade? Although I haven't seen it, I have heard people say that the water jade is green, but you see these three, one purple, and a blue one. Why why?

Maybe it is water jade? "

Without waiting for Luo Lan to explain, the passerby quarreled first.

Some people think it is water jade, and some people think it is not.

"Girl Luo Lan, do you say, is this water jade?"

If everyone couldn't make a result, they asked Luo Lan together.

Luo Lan cleared his throat and picked up a tin! "These three orbs are indeed real water jade!"

"It's really water jade!"

"How much is it worth for such a large water jade?"

"It's hard to say, don't say the size first, these water and jade are crystal clear, the color is different, and the absolute value is expensive!"

"In addition to the size and color, such a round and smooth water jade is also seen in the only life!"

"Girl Luo Lan, that big one, how much do you have to sell?"

Passers -by praised, and some people asked curiously.

"Don't hide everyone, Mr. did not price Shuiyu. Today is just a display. After three days, the official auction is officially auctioned. As for how much money can be sold, you can know it at that time."

Luo Lan answered with a smile.

"I know to auction!"

A younger brother turned and ran, and went back to order the servant at home, and took the pavement to queue up to buy tickets.
Chapter completed!
