At this time, the courtiers who successfully bid for the goods have already taken over the items.

No one rushed to look at the prices, but first admired the artwork up close.

At this time, the Minister of Revenue did not forget to secretly instruct the officials of the Ministry of War to pay attention to their facial expressions. After seeing the price, they must act shocked but not hypocritical, so as not to arouse Yuan Ruan's suspicion.

However, before he could finish his instructions.

One of the military assistants held up the envelope, his face flushed, and said in disbelief: "So cheap? Are you kidding me?"

The Minister of Revenue raised his eyebrows. Not bad! Not bad! This expression was very realistic, but a little rude.

However, before the Minister of Revenue could finish his expression.

The other courtiers who opened the envelopes gasped one after another, "Oh my God! I was killed?", "Oh my God, am I so ignorant?!"...

The buyers' shocked expressions were more and more devastated and genuine than each other. Some even had complex expressions of "three parts shock, three parts emotion, and one part self-mockery" on their faces.

The Minister of Revenue was so nervous: Oh my god, where did you guys go to learn acting?! I don’t want to be the one holding back, that would be embarrassing!

As he thought about this, the Minister of Revenue nervously opened the envelope.

Seeing this, the Minister of Revenue seemed to be hit hard in the head. His pupils shrank and he spoke subconsciously with a stutter: "Wagu... 8 coins?! Such a big difference!"

This is more than a hundred times, it is more than a thousand times the purchase price difference!

No wonder the expressions of the other officials are so real: because there is no acting, it is all substitution.

At this time, the Minister of War, who was also a buyer, heard the voice of the Minister of Revenue.

He turned his head and saw the Minister of Revenue standing stiffly in the same place, his lips trembling slightly as if he was muttering something, or perhaps trying hard to suppress some emotion.

The Minister of War's sad mood disappeared instantly.

As colleagues, he went over and patted the Minister of Revenue, whispering, "Think about your greenhouse vegetables, think about the world map, and consider this money as a contribution to Daxia."

The Minister of Revenue ignored him, suddenly took out the abacus beside him and started fiddling with it.

The noise was so loud that even the other court officials who were still in shock and muttering unconsciously could not help but look over.

The Minister of War knew how stingy the Minister of Revenue was, and he felt even more sympathetic, saying softly: "Don't be sad, the little imperial master said it well, even if you spend all your money, you can get it back. The imperial master will not let us suffer. Have you forgotten what we advised us before, to be willing..."

The Minister of Revenue said firmly: "Of course I am willing to do so!"

The Minister of War was stunned.

He looked up and realized that there was no sadness on the Minister of Revenue's face. His face was flushed, his nostrils were slightly flared, and his breathing was heavy, all of which revealed that he was in an excited and good mood.

"We've made a fortune!" The Minister of Revenue patted the Minister of War on the cheek.

The Minister of War was stunned. He was really confused by the other party's pat on the cheek and the condescending gesture.

When the Minister of War raised his eyebrows and was about to get angry, he heard the Minister of Revenue speak quickly but incoherently, "Don't argue with me about trade. Oh, by the way... this time the reward is a world map. If you can plan a good trade route for me, and if you make a lot of money this time, I will decide to increase the military pay."

The Minister of War immediately relaxed his frown and said softly, "You are busy, I will ask the bastards to speed up the work later."
