- Sima Chen is currently explaining things to his son Sima Jin.
"Jin'er, you have to remember! We usually don't take action, but at critical moments, we must support you! Don't be afraid to spend money, the more you spend, the better!"
Sima Jin was a little hesitant when he heard this, "Dad, we don't need to do this, right? When we were having dinner with His Highness yesterday, he already said that we don't need to get involved, just come and watch the excitement!"
"Silly boy!"
Sima Chen shook his head and smiled, "You have to know that there are some things that His Royal Highness Prince Yu can say, but we can't do that!"
"Why?" Sima Jin said: "Dad, don't underestimate His Highness. What he said is true and he will never go back on it! With civilian carriages, our Sima family will be waiting for a prosperous career!"
When Liu Mingqi had dinner with them last night, considering that the Sima family was mainly engaged in passenger shipping projects, he proposed to leave the civilian carriage business in Jiangsu to them.
It is not a civilian carriage business in Jiangnan.
Nor is it a monopoly on the sale of civilian carriages.
The Sima family still has to buy civilian carriages from dealers in Jiangsu. The price is not cheap, but as long as Jiangsu has the goods, they must be the first to supply them. Even if they buy them out, they must not wait until the Sima family is satisfied. Sold to second home.
This is purely to give the Sima family an opportunity to become second-hand dealers.
Dealers who belong to Jiangsu should make whatever money they should make, and don¡¯t worry about the wealth that does not belong to them.
But it¡¯s just Jiangsu. Zhejiang and Anhui have nothing to do with them.
At first glance, this seemed a bit harsh, but Sima Chen was so happy that he almost knelt down in front of Liu Mingqi.
To put it in the simplest and most straightforward terms, from now on, the mid-to-high-end passenger carriages in Jiangsu belong to the Sima family.
Not to mention the poor scholars and small businessmen of the low-end, who among the middle- and high-end officials, gentry, landlords, and local tycoons would not want to ride in a better carriage when they go out?
"As long as anyone has seen the carriage of Prince Yu's Palace, anyone who has ridden in the carriage of Prince Yu's Palace, as long as they have some choice, will never ride in the previous shabby carriage again.
Of course, they have money, but they can¡¯t buy civilian carriages because these carriages are owned by our Sima family.
We don¡¯t sell them, we rent them out, or run a carriage company. From Suzhou to Yangzhou, you can ride with others, or you can charter one yourself.
Suzhou¡¯s commerce is very developed, and the flow of people is very large. Everyone needs to ride a carriage every day. There are at least thousands of carriages running on the road every day.
Even if I don¡¯t earn much, one person per trip will earn one penny. If there are six people in a car, one thousand trips will be 600 taels, and ten thousand trips will be 6,000 taels!
What a long water flowing in such a long time?
Sima Jin also understood this, so he told his father not to worry, as the Sima family would definitely get better and better.
Sima Chen smiled when he saw this, "Jin'er, I have to tell you, you must not stand still in life and work, you must look forward No matter how good the relationship is, we should actively maintain it, and you need to constantly show yourself to His Highness. With your existence, His Highness will pay more and more attention to you and treat you as one of his own!"
After a pause, he said: "Even though you almost died in battle, ask yourself, how does your relationship with His Highness compare with Gong Yuan?"
Sima Jin was speechless.
Gong Yuan and him followed Liu Mingqi in the north and south, and suffered a lot. In fact, everyone's achievements were almost the same.
But Sima Jin himself knew that Liu Mingqi must be closer to Gong Yuan.
Because Gong Yuan is known to be a crazy admirer of Liu Mingqi, it is said that Liu Mingqi asked him to run the "Jiangnan Daily" he ran.
Such a person is equivalent to one of Liu Mingqi's agents in Jiangnan, and he is incomparable.
After thinking about it, he felt that what his father said did make some sense.
Humanity is really learned!
Sima Chen nodded: "So, when I give you a hint later, you stand up and raise the price loudly! Don't be afraid of spending money!"
"okay, I get it!"
¡¡
While the two father and son were talking, the guests had almost arrived.
The surrounding area of ??the theater was lit with extremely bright gasoline lamps, making the place look like daytime.
The lighting on the stage is more abundant. There is a small wooden cabinet on the side, with several large iron speakers placed in front, and there is an empty space in the middle.If you want to buy something, just hold a sign and shout out the price. In this way, if you win the bid, our people will record it for you, and finally give you the goods, and you can just pay the bill! "
Her voice was originally pleasant, but through the loudspeaker, everyone present could hear it clearly.
It was then that everyone knew what the brand with a stick underneath the buttocks was.
They had never experienced any formal auction, and they thought it would be interesting to hold up a sign to bid for something later.
"Now that everyone knows it, let's have some fun first!"
While Meng Xin'er was talking, two beauties, also wearing tight-fitting robes, came over from the other side of the curtain. They were carrying a wooden frame with a copper plate tied to it.
The two beauties walked around the edge of the stage, allowing most people to see the copper plate clearly, and then placed it at the front of the stage.
"Everyone, this is an inconspicuous copper plate on the surface, but in fact it is the favorite treasure of Yu Jian, the richest businessman in the former dynasty, one hundred and thirty years ago - the cornucopia!
Don't think this is a fake. It was donated by Prince Rui. They bought it for 20,000 taels of silver fifteen years ago. They also invited many people who were experts in art and antiques to appraise it, and finally confirmed that it is Authentic!
"If you find another appraiser after buying it and think it is fake, you are welcome to return it to His Highness Prince Rui, and he will bear all your losses. "
People present couldn¡¯t stop laughing when they heard it.
But it feels very novel. Antiques are bought and sold. Even if you buy a fake one, you can't go to others. You can only blame your poor taste.
But now the bazaar directly said that you can return the goods if you encounter fake ones. This sincere sense of business suddenly became stronger.
However, what they never expected was what Meng Xin'er said next.
I saw this cute and charming girl, and said playfully: "Since we are just playing for fun first, let's just start the price of this cornucopia at one tael of silver!"
One tael of silver! ?
Everyone was stunned.
They all looked at the people around them, thinking they had heard wrongly.
Not to mention the cornucopia of King Rui Bao, even an ordinary copper plate like this is worth more than one tael of silver!
Kemeng Xin'er shouted again: "Come on! One tael of silver! For one tael of silver, you can own the cornucopia of the richest people in the past Is there anyone who bids? If you bid, it might be yours. !¡±
"Wow"
The children of wealthy merchants and nobles below suddenly started boiling like a ladle of cold water poured into a hot oil pan!
