Chapter 1485
So, when the auction began, it was really smooth.
The fact that Su Hongshan was worried that officials who did not dare to participate in the auction did not happen with these sufficient preparations.
At the same time, the auction of merchants hosted by Su Hongshan was even more smooth.
It is rare for these merchants to be destined to see the saint, not to mention that the emperor encouraged them to actively participate, and they all tried their best to increase the price.
But at the beginning, the price of a casual jade Ruyi soared to 2,000 taels, not to mention the items that were originally priced higher later.
There were some money that could not be taken out for a while, so he had the idea of selling a shop on the spot. The merchant Su Hongshan arranged it to be in handy soon.
After an auction, the merchants alone raised 70 million taels, and even the officials sold 40 million taels at a high price.
Each item was finally taken out, and even some items that were not very valuable on weekdays and were not bidding for by anyone, they were sent out to their owners to buy them at a high price, which at least saved their face.
Otherwise, the whole audience would not fail to film, and the things they gave were not taken away, so they would not be able to hold on to their face.
Su Hongshan just got this idea, so for some ordinary items, the ones given there will be auctioned there.
These are not the gifts given to Su Hongshan by the emperor and the women in the harem before and after, and that part of them even sold a lot of silver.
The things sent from the harem can't flow into ordinary families under normal circumstances, so they are auctioned by officials.
King Xiang also made a fool of himself. Whoever donated it would directly say whose title or name it was. In order to fight for his concubines, the families of the concubines also bought it with shamelessness and earned their own face to make face for his concubine.
So, the things that came out of the harem alone were sold at a high price of 15 million taels, not to mention the ones taken out by the emperor.
However, the things that the emperor took out were auctioned directly on the merchants' side. When they heard it was a hymn written by the emperor when he came.
As for whom I praised, the emperor also expressed his opinion, praising all participants who participated in the auction this time.
But there was only one word, and others could only listen to it. Whoever got the patronized would have the capital to brag. The merchants were even more crazy and finally called out the highest price in the whole venue, 18 million taels of silver.
The one who called out the highest price undoubtedly became the one who paid the most money tonight. Not only did he receive the praises he wrote personally, but he also received the first place reward.
The right to sign a city, a plaque with the "Jishan Family" written on it, and the most important thing is to give their children a palace examination alone, and select the best child without having to participate in the imperial examination, and can start directly from a sixth-rank official.
For a time, all the merchants who did not win the first place were red-eyed.
He spent more than 20 million taels of silver to make his family one after another.
Although he is just a small official, even such a small official is something that ordinary merchants can't stand for in their struggle for several lifetimes.
Not to mention the plaque of the "Jishan Family" and the right to sign the city.
If it is a real benefit to say that it is a tangible benefit to an official, the plaque and signature rights are long-term benefits.
Where can I find such benefits? I regret not being able to take pictures of them for a while.
If I had known this, I would have to be the first to sell more shops at home.
Although the signature rights and plaques of a county also made them very excited, they were still a little worse than the first place.
