Happy Palm: The War King's Favored Little Doctor Consort
Chapter 75 The silly son of the landlord
At Lu's auction, everyone wore a mask, and the only thing that could identify them was the invitation in their hands.
Mo Yunting was arranged to stay in a private room on the second floor. When they arrived, the auction hall was already full of people.
Su Qingli looked downstairs through the window. The Lu family had absolute power in Ruyang. Any businessman doing business in Ruyang had to go to the Lu family to get acquainted.
Although Mo Yunting did not visit the Lu family in person, he sent someone to deliver a generous gift to the Lu family. Otherwise, even if his identity and background were sufficient, the Lu family would not have invited him to this auction.
"Sir, it's so lively here." The maid came in, served wine and delicious food, and then left.
Su Qingli's gaze fell on the wine glass in Mo Yunting's hand. The glass was luminous, and the wine was red wine, which looked as bright as a ruby in the luminous cup.
"The owner behind this is so generous that he can even get the luminous cup of wine. Sir, it seems that we will have a gain at this auction today." Su Qingli's voice was crisp, like a servant who had seen the world but not much.
"There's something wrong with the wine, don't drink it." Su Qingli whispered in Mo Yunting's ear.
Mo Yunting took a sip calmly and spit it quietly onto the cotton bag hidden in his sleeve. As expected, the Lu family dared to hold an auction with such fanfare, and they had plenty of means to control people.
Those girls who fell into the hands of the Lu family were probably also controlled by others and had to become pawns for them to control the officials.
Thinking of this, Mo Yunting's eyes became darker, with a hint of purple in the darkness. Su Qingli was shocked and quickly stood in front of Mo Yunting. She reached out to straighten Mo Yunting's collar and took the opportunity to stuff a pill into Mo Yunting's mouth.
Mo Yunting swallowed the pill and his eyes returned to normal. The aristocratic families had many methods, but many of them disdained to use shady methods. Obviously, the Lu family was not in this category.
The auction began. The first items to be auctioned were some rare goods. These were the appetizers prepared by the Lu family. These goods themselves were not valuable, but they were a means of showing loyalty to the Lu family.
Mo Yunting bid a high price for a South China Sea black pearl. After all the guests on the second floor had bid for the goods, the second round of auction began.
What Su Qingli couldn't believe was that the second round of auction was actually for the mining rights of private salt!
Su Qingli thought that the Lu family was very bold, but she didn't expect that the Lu family was so bold that they dared to openly auction the mining rights of private salt. You must know that the salt in the Tianyuan Dynasty was controlled by the government, and private individuals were not allowed to mine and sell it!
However, the Lu family openly sold the salt mining rights of Ruyang. This is not just bold, this is extremely audacious!
Mo Yunting stood up excitedly: "Sure enough, there is something good, five hundred thousand!"
When everyone heard that the price upstairs had increased fivefold, they all went to see which prodigal son it was. Although salt can make money, you can't just cut off other people's business!
When the people of the Lu family saw that Mo Yunting asked for 500,000 yuan right away, they were very satisfied with him. The Shen family in Hangzhou is rich and stupid. If they can get in touch with the Shen family in Hangzhou, money will come rolling in.
"Six hundred thousand!"
"One million!" Mo Yunting raised his head triumphantly, looking like the silly son of a landlord who had no shortage of money. The corners of Su Qingli's mouth twitched, and she forced herself to suppress the smile.
"One million, is there anyone who can offer a higher price?" the host asked with a smile. The original starting price of one hundred thousand was already very high, but a rich fool came out of nowhere and raised the price to one million in an instant.
Private salt can make money, but with such a high auction price, it is impossible to make back the investment in a year. Merchants are unwilling to do things that will lose money. In the end, Mo Yunting bought the right to purchase private salt at a high price of one million.
