Chapter 1697: Auction 5
Chapter 1697 Auction 5
The initial price was the lowest, and the two-person loom was fired up to seventy taels, more than doubled.
The reason is also very simple. The merchants on the first floor at the back are completely anxious. They can only guarantee to buy back the loom at a high price. At the last straw, desperately increase the price.
Even some small businessmen's eyes were red.
As a result, those rich merchants who did not buy looms would not miss this opportunity and increased their prices one after another.
Everyone can realize that the further you go to the back, the fewer looms there are.
Tang Dongfeng is very good at controlling the rhythm of the auction. There are two or three looms for sale in the front, but the more you go to the back, the more looms there are. Eight, ten, and fifteen looms are obviously for sale. For rich merchants.
The small merchants on the first floor couldn't afford it at all.
Only the second and third floors can afford the price. It costs more than two hundred taels for eight, and more than four hundred taels for fifteen.
This is the last moment of the auction.
Even if they knew that Tang Dongfeng did it on purpose, these people would not miss this opportunity. After all, there is really nothing left, and it will be the other family who will take advantage of it, and they will only lose more money.
What's more, for an imperial merchant like Gao's family, a few hundred taels is not a big sum at all, but once the loom is bought back, the cloth can be woven faster and sold to the wives of officials and eunuchs, and the money is very cheap. earned it back.
Even though the Gao family had prepared some servants from the beginning, they even wanted to discuss with them to see if they could cheat the Chu family.
Especially in the end, the price is getting higher and higher, and the loom is sold in bundles.
You can buy it directly at the lowest price, and then share it equally with everyone.
But obviously, he couldn't get everyone to agree to cooperate, and even so, there weren't many competitors.
Except for the Beirong people.
In particular, Beirong is bound to win these looms. Although King Qi also wanted to express his willingness to help, Prince Zilun left, leaving only one official. cooperated.
Because, although there are fewer and fewer competitors in the future, and the price is not low, no one wants to give up. What's more, when the Gao family has been stalemate with Beirong, those who originally chose to cooperate with the Gao family immediately panicked. Also grab the last loom.
After an auction that lasted nearly two and a half hours, not only the merchants who came to participate in the auction were tired, but even Tang Dongfeng was a little tired, but when he thought of today's income, he couldn't help but smile from ear to ear, and he was in a great mood.
When the auction is over, he directly arranges for people to deliver the goods to those who bought them. At the same time, he arranges for the servants in the restaurant to serve meals to the guests who are still in the restaurant.
Why Tang Dongfeng rented the restaurant so smoothly was not only because the price was right and the other party wanted to sell the favor of the Chu family, but also because of mutual benefit and the ability to make a fortune by the way.
Those who came to the auction were all wealthy businessmen. Naturally, these businessmen would not leave hungry, and stayed for dinner after the auction was over.
Tang Dongfeng retreated.
Walking to the second floor, when he came in, he saw Ye Muyu was already eating, he smiled and said: "Ma'am, today is living up to everyone's expectations."
"Thank you." With a smile in his eyes, Ye Muyu patted the stool next to him, telling him to sit down and eat first.
Tang Dongfeng had already arranged for someone to handle the finishing touches.
