The most romantic little emperor
Chapter 55: Sky-high Bidding
Oda-kun chirped again, "Your Highness, follow me again, for the last time."
"At worst, we can send more people to plunder them after we return home. We will make them pay a heavy price for their actions this time."
"Besides, if we anger the Su family because of this matter, we may not be able to return to the country."
"I will arrange for someone to inquire about this matter now. If I fail this time, I am willing to commit suicide by disembowelment to thank the Great Japanese Empire!"
The young Japanese was silent for a moment, "This is the last bid. If I don't succeed, I will die."
At this time, the Japanese translator ran over and whispered, "Just now, Mr. Su's attendant guard said that we should continue to raise the price. There will be no unexpected changes this time."
"Add another two million taels of silver. Remember, this is your last chance. If you fail, you will commit suicide!"
The Japanese translator stood up nervously and shouted loudly: "My great Japanese Empire offers 20 million taels of silver."
The guests were shocked. Twenty million taels of silver was a whopping amount of money! I wonder if Master Su can keep up.
They could only place their hopes on Su Gan, and thus, waves of flattering shouts once again resounded throughout the hall.
But this time they were disappointed. What they waited for was Su Gan's silence.
Finally, the Japanese successfully bought the ten bronze statues of zodiac animal heads for 20 million taels of silver.
Some were happy while others were sad, and the Japanese arrogance swelled again.
The guests present could only hurl at the Japanese.
The first auction of the first auction house in Beijing ended in an unsatisfactory manner.
Qin Hao had been paying attention to the situation on the field. When he saw the Japanese envoy go to find Su Gan, he had already made arrangements. So their self-proclaimed brilliant cooperation was now conveyed to Qin Hao word for word.
After listening to A Yue's report, Zhu Qiqi and Qian Duoduo were immediately furious.
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo immediately scolded Su Gan as a traitor, and even his father was implicated by her words.
Zhu Qiqi was even more direct. He picked up his sword and ran away, wanting to kill Su Gan, the traitor.
Qin Hao immediately stopped Zhu Qiqi and said with a smile, "Don't worry! I have arranged a trap for them. No matter if it is Su Gan or the Japanese, none of them can escape. I will catch them all in one fell swoop."
"To be honest, the Japanese were really unlucky today. They ran into Su Gan, an idiot, and caused a huge mistake, causing us to bid a sky-high price for no reason. Logically, we should thank Su Gan, this idiot, haha!"
"Ayue, now you send someone to pretend to be Su Gan's subordinates and snatch away the treasures that the Japanese just took pictures of, leaving a loophole and framing Su Gan, so that they will bite each other, and I will make them lose both their people and their money."
Qian Duoduo frowned and suggested, "Your Highness, this may not be appropriate! We are not robbers, and we cannot rob people of their money. This goes against the way of a gentleman."
Qin Hao laughed and said seriously: "Miss Duoduo, you worry too much. As long as they are law-abiding people, I will protect their lives and property safety."
"But who are they? One is a traitor who colluded with foreign enemies, and the other is an invader who harassed the people in the coastal areas of our Great Xia Dynasty. Such thieves should be killed by everyone. This king is doing this to eliminate harm for the people and defend the country."
"There's no need to be a gentleman with such a person."
Zhu Qiqi also interrupted and said, "Yes, yes, sister Duoduo, you were so happy scolding them just now! Why are you talking to them about the way of a gentleman now?"
"That ignorant Su Gan actually wants to occupy you. Those Japanese have invaded our coastal areas countless times and killed countless people of Daxia. Killing them a hundred times is not enough. Don't have any psychological burden."
After listening to their explanation, Qian Duoduo suddenly came to his senses and said awkwardly: "Your Highness, Sister Qiqi, you are right. Duoduo is narrow-minded. Duoduo apologizes to you."
When the two saw Qian Duoduo's attitude had changed, they smiled at each other, and the relationship between the three became closer. They talked and laughed, and it was lively and pleasant.
After a while, Su Yongkang and Li Youcai finished their work at the scene and came to the private room. A Yue also returned after completing the prince's instructions.
Everyone gathered together and was very happy.
Su Yongkang happily reported the brilliant results of tonight's battle, "Your Highness, we have achieved great results tonight. The entrance fee was 2,350 taels of silver, and the auction revenue was 25.3 million taels of silver."
"Today's expenditure is 6,263 taels of silver. The initial investment is 168,870 taels of silver. The initial investment is mainly for the purchase of this restaurant, which cost 150,000 taels of silver. The auction house was renovated, which cost 13,000 taels of silver. The rest of the expenses are for recruiting personnel, allocating items, etc."
"The actual balance is 25,127,217 taels of silver. Here is the account book. Please have a look."
Everyone was shocked after hearing this. An auction could earn more than 25 million taels of silver. This was simply a money-making machine! It made money faster than opening a mint.
Qin Hao smiled happily. With this money, the situation was completely opened up. He could do a lot of things and the disaster victims in Hedong would be saved.
So, he waved his hand and said happily: "Don't look at it, I trust you to do the job! You must keep the account book well and don't let it fall into the hands of others."
Qin Hao's simple words moved Su Yongkang beyond words, and Li Youcai beside him was extremely envious.
Qin Hao continued, "Everyone present tonight has made great contributions, especially Miss Duoduo. She is the first contributor to this auction."
"Second uncle, return the two hundred thousand taels of silver that Miss Duoduo got from the auction of the jade lion to her later, and consider the jade lion a gift to her."
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo hurried forward and said, "Your Highness, you are too polite! Helping you is just a small favor. I dare not take credit for it. Please take back your order."
Qin Hao laughed, pretending not to hear her, and patiently said to her: "My words are as good as gold. If you have done a good deed, you must reward me. Just accept it. Otherwise, how can I convince others in the future?"
Zhu Qiqi also stepped forward to comfort her, "Sister Duoduo, if His Highness asks you to accept it, then just accept it! You have done such a great service tonight, and His Highness's reward to you is also the reward you deserve."
Ah Yue also advised: "Sister Duoduo, you don't understand His Highness' temper. If you don't accept it, His Highness will be unhappy."
Qian Duoduo was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and he stopped hesitating and quickly knelt down to thank the prince for his grace.
