I, the King is a killer

"Hey, forget it."

The eunuch sighed and said.

"Forget it? You can't forget it! "

Xiao Yun sneered.

Obviously want to do something.

The eunuch hurriedly said, "you should also understand your Majesty's difficulties."

"I understand? I'm considerate of this and that. If I don't see your majesty, the old man will be considerate of me! "

"Hey, young man, it's not a bad thing to suffer."

Xiao Yun snorted coldly and said, "you can eat other losses. Do you have complaints when I'm locked up? But today, this loss can't be eaten. "

"Why?"

"Principle!"

Xiao Yun said coldly, "now, Grandpa Zhao should be in this drunken fairy building? Linglong, this injury has just been left. "

The eunuch sighed and said nothing more.

Qiao'er was obviously not too big, nodded and said, "Grandpa Zhao is still here."

Then he explained: "it's rare for foreign businessmen to hold an auction here tonight. It will start in half an hour. Grandpa Zhao likes rare things most and is bound to win this auction."

"Auction?"

Xiao Yun was stunned.

How can there be such a "modern" thing as an auction in such a earthy world?

Even the normal commercial transactions here are extremely backward. Even in many places, there is the exchange of things. Even the currency is mainly copper. The cost of that thing is very high. It is said that the copper mine of the imperial court is desperately exploited, which is not enough.

Then there came an auction here. How is this possible?

Then asked clearly, Xiao Yun understood what was going on.

It turned out that those foreign businessmen were really not stupid. They brought some treasures to the state of Qin thousands of miles away. If they fixed the price directly, they always felt that they had some losses and could not find out the bottom line of the price given by the state of Qin, so they made this means of bidding.

I don't know which genius called this bidding form "auction", so the name of the auction passed down.

If you think deeply, in fact, bidding auction is the most primitive trading method!

"Hehe, these foreign businessmen have some means one by one."

Qiao'er said, "the merchant who came this time is from the sun and moon country. Originally, it was the most prosperous there. Presumably, the treasure this time is not general."

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "you're different."

Xiao Yun can guess what the other party thinks.

This woman is very scheming.

Just now, I inadvertently brought another "wronged big head" to Zui xianlou. Of course, the more people, the better, the richer, the better. After all, Zui xianlou wants to draw money from this grand event.

The higher the transaction price, the more they get, so they won't consider it. In fact, it allows their money to flow abroad.

To put it bluntly, this is the world of the copper standard of money. Copper itself has value, just like the gold standard of previous lives, gold itself has value. At that time, they can transport the copper coins away and melt them into their own country's copper coins.

Businessmen often do such things, and the state turns a blind eye.

After all, in the eyes of those countries, the increase of copper coins is a good thing.

To understand this kind of thing, everything becomes much more convenient. At least he can understand why there is an auction and why it appears in such an inappropriate place as Zui xianlou.

Xiao Yun smiled gently, then took out the medicine bottle from his arms, touched it a little, and rubbed it on Linglong's face.

Linglong only felt her cheeks cold, so she was surprised and said, "it doesn't hurt!"

Xiao Yun said: "don't be happy too early. It can only be paralysis and pain relief. Whether you will leave scars and deform after that depends on your life. Hey... You are so small, he can do it. It seems that in the eyes of these noble CHILDES, others are not human."

Then he waved to qiao'er and said, "call the procuress over."

This is the tone of command. Few people will talk to qiao'er like this.

Qiao'er was stunned for a moment, and then hurried to do it.

"Ben Shao wants to redeem Linglong. There is still a girl carrying tea and pouring water around me. Qing'er doesn't do well. It's just for Linglong to make up for it."

When the procuress came, Xiao Yun said his ideas straight to the point.

Then he added: "Oh, by the way, Ben doesn't have much money. Now I've ruined all the money of the Xiao family, but I'm going to take it away."

The procuress was stunned.

She had never heard of such a request in her life.

If someone else had said such a thing, she should have called the thugs in and kicked them out now.

But this is what Xiao Yun said.

So I just stuck there with an embarrassing pestle on my face, and there was no way for a moment.

Although she is greedy, she also knows what money can be greedy and what money can't be greedy.

Therefore, even if she sent Linglong out for free, she was willing to spend money to avoid disaster, which is the truth.

But the rules can't be broken!

If the girls in Zuixian building are in the limelight and almost equal to the number one brand, they will be sold at a very low or even free price. No matter who they are sold to, what will others do?

In short, if you give a person face, you may lose a lot of people's face.

It has long been a rule that money is thankless and may even lead to disaster. No matter who, even your majesty, must give all the money for redemption before they can take people away.

This is also a rule that everyone knows, and everyone will consciously abide by it.

But now Xiao Yun obviously didn't mean to abide by it.

Finally, the eunuch sighed and said, "I said it's my treat today. All the expenses of Childe Xiao can be recorded in my name."

This sentence not only saved face, but also reassured the procuress.

The procuress breathed a sigh of relief and bowed down to thank him.

I went back to find Linglong's deed of sale.

Linglong was stunned on the spot.

She didn't expect that her fate would change so much because she was beaten.

She didn't think it was the biggest thing in the world for herself, but it was obviously just a word in Xiao Yun's mouth.

I'm glad to be excited, but I can't avoid being lost.

Xiao Yun didn't see the subtle changes in her mood. Instead, he smiled at the eunuch and said, "I didn't expect you to be very rich."

The eunuch smiled bitterly and said, "the old slave didn't spend much at all. Where does the old slave need to pay for his life in the palace? Moreover, the old slave has a lot of money. Naturally, he has accumulated some over the years, as well as his Majesty's reward. There is always some. "

Xiao Yun smiled: "but today, it seems that the old cabinet is going to bleed a lot."

"It doesn't matter. In fact, the more childe Xiao spends, the more comfortable the old slave is."

Speaking of this, he took a serious look at Xiao Yun and said, "the Xiao family used to have a lot of industries and a lot of money. Now childe Xiao says that the Xiao family has no money. The Xiao family must have no money. These money, the Xiao family's savings for many years, should be spent on meat pie?"

Xiao Yun said: "in fact, the most important thing is that the two herbs are only controlled by the two drug stores. If they don't purchase in large quantities, maybe they will do something to raise the price of drugs."

The question was not answered, but the eunuch understood the meaning.

I can't help moving.

The cost of the meat pie must be very big, but Xiao Yun never mentioned it to his majesty!

This made the word "Saint" jump out of the eunuch's mind.

A hundred years is a wise king and a thousand years is a saint.

This sentence has been passed down since ancient times. Now it seems that it is really good.

After dinner, Linglong's life experience and procedures are in place. Xiao Yun originally wanted to tear up the deed of betrayal, but Shangguan qinger grabbed it and put it into his arms. Obviously, he won't give it back to Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun was stunned at first, and then understood.

This must be because Shangguan qinger is worried that Linglong will compete for her present position after she comes. After all, Linglong is young and beautiful, and her voice is good. When she sings, qinger is also intoxicated.

In terms of women's tenderness, she can't catch up with her.

But as long as the deed of betrayal is with her, she can keep her "sister" status, which can be regarded as prepared.

To understand this, Xiao Yun didn't ask for it any more.

And there's no time.

Outside, a few gongs and drums rang in the hall, and then someone spoke the non-standard Daqin Mandarin, introducing the characteristics of a treasure.

Obviously, the auction is about to begin.
