Ming Dynasty: Teaching The Prince Dragon-Slaying Skills At The Beginning
Chapter 27: Using Glass As Money, My Father Is The Prime Minister! [Asking For Flowers, Asking For E
"This piece of Top Grade ambergris is sold at the lowest price - one hundred thousand taels!!!"
After shopkeeper Li in front of the trading desk introduced the origin of Top Grade Ambergris, he immediately shouted out the highest price today!
After coming back to his senses, Yan Changqing's eyes narrowed, and he didn't need anything else, including the piece of Top Grade ambergris that others regarded as a priceless treasure.
But he was bound to get the vines on the box and those corn buds today!
"A dragon glazed bottle, plus a phoenix glazed bottle, and a unicorn glazed bottle!"
Yan Changqing immediately took out three glazed bottles one palm long and half a palm wide from the inner pocket of his left sleeve robe, in blue, red, and ink colors, with shapes like dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns, and placed them on the table in front of him.
The maid standing aside, serving Yan Changqing at any time, saw the three lifelike, crystal-clear glass bottles, and her eyes were full of shock.
"Take it for an estimate."
Yan Changqing said in a calm voice.
"yes!"
The maid on the side came back to her senses and looked at Yan Changqing in awe.
Then he picked up the three dragon, phoenix and unicorn glazed bottles in front of him cautiously and cautiously, carefully and even more carefully.
If there was any damage to these three dragon, phoenix and unicorn glazed bottles, her entire family would be sold and they would not be able to compensate for the loss.
After a while, shopkeeper Li, who had finished the valuation, announced loudly and excitedly:
"Scholar Yan offers three unparalleled dragon, phoenix and unicorn glazed bottles, worth two hundred thousand taels!!!"
“Is there anything more expensive than this?!!”
As soon as Shopkeeper Li finished speaking, another very arrogant voice immediately sounded:
"Two hundred and one thousand taels!"
Yan Changqing frowned slightly, glanced at Mr. Hu who was diagonally opposite him, then took out a crane-shaped glass bottle from the inner pocket of his right sleeve robe, and said in a cold tone:
"Add another crane glazed bottle!"
"The total value of the crane glazed bottles is 30,000 taels, and Academician Yan's total bid is 230,000 taels!"
After checking the price of the crane glass bottles again, shopkeeper Li shouted again.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand taels, this ambergris must belong to me!!!"
Snapped!
Mr. Hu put away his folding fan and said in a domineering manner.
Yan Changqing didn't even look at the other party, and directly took out all the glazed products from the inner pockets of the left and right sleeves.
"Add a Shoulu glazed bottle, a Tianma glazed bottle, and nine nine-color glazed beads!"
More than money, he has never been afraid! ! !
Others use gold and silver as money, but he uses glass as money! ! !
At least glass is really valuable in this era called glass!
Even to a certain extent, it is more valuable than ordinary gold and silver!
And it just so happens that, as a science graduate student, he knows a little about the technical methods of firing glass in a small earth-made blast furnace. That is very reasonable and normal.
The glass products he used as silver flowers now and before were fired in a small blast furnace he opened several times in his simple laboratory.
This is also the reason why he never cared about the salary of the original doctor of Imperial College, or the salary of the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.
For this era, he has a lot of ways to make money, and even make money that will make the country rich!
It's just that for him, material enjoyment is not particularly important. Although he has appetite, he will not pursue it in particular.
As long as the house has a front yard, a back yard, and a few more rooms, it can be used as a laboratory and study room.
And the place should be secluded so that he would not attract other people's attention due to abnormal noises while doing experiments.
This is why he bought a house in a remote corner of Nanjing.
Therefore, except that sometimes it costs a lot of money to buy these overseas merchants' things, there are not many places where he can use the money at other times.
"The Shoulu Glazed Bottle, the Tianma Glazed Bottle, and the Nine-Colored Glazed Beads are worth a total of seventy thousand taels!"
"Scholar Yan has offered a total of three hundred thousand taels!!!"
After shopkeeper Li checked the value of the corresponding glass bottles, he looked up at Mr. Hu on the second floor with some embarrassment.
Hearing the quotation from shopkeeper Li downstairs, Mr. Hu pushed Mei Ji aside, looked at Yan Changqing with a fierce look and said angrily:
"My father is the Prime Minister!!!"
"I am Hu Wen'an, the son of the Prime Minister, do you dare to rob me?!!"
Yan Changqing raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the other party with a hint of surprise.
The sentence "My father is the prime minister" cannot be said to be exactly the same as a famous saying in the previous life, it can only be said to be completely consistent.
In addition, "Hu Wen'an, the son of the prime minister" means that his father is Hu Weiyong, the prime minister of the dynasty? ! !
No wonder he dares to be so arrogant. Even a small trade fair jointly organized by several Great Shang gangs must give him face and try to follow his wishes.
His father Hu Weiyong was much more arrogant than him, and he even became so arrogant in the end that he challenged Lao Zhu's imperial power!
Then he was massacred by Lao Zhu on charges of treason.
Yan Changqing looked at Hu Wen'an with eyes full of pity. The grasshopper after autumn could only jump around for a few days.
"In a transaction auction, I think the one with the highest bid should win, not the one with the highest status."
"If Mr. Hu can offer a higher price, then I will just continue to follow."
"If there is no higher bid from everyone present, then please ask Shopkeeper Li to announce the result."
Yan Changqing's eyes fell on shopkeeper Li in front of the trading desk on the first floor, and he said with an indifferent expression.
"this......"
Shopkeeper Li in front of the trading desk turned his eyes to Hu Wen'an on the second floor in embarrassment, looking hesitant and unable to speak.
Hu Wen'an was so angry that he laughed. Ever since his father became Prime Minister Zuo, the leader of hundreds of officials, he has never met anyone who didn't give him face!
"Okay! Okay!! Okay!!!"
“This is the first time I see someone who doesn’t give me face!!!”
"Just buy it! I want to see if you can take it back!!!"
After that, he kicked the table in front of him and left the scene in anger without any shame.
"Scholar Yan, you are in big trouble."
Shopkeeper Li downstairs looked at Yan Changqing and smiled bitterly after seeing Hu Wen'an leaving.
"It doesn't matter, he's not much of a problem."
"If no one raises the price, please ask Shopkeeper Li to announce the result."
Yan Changqing waved his hand nonchalantly and urged slightly.
If he didn't get the vines and corn on the box immediately, he wouldn't be able to feel at ease.
"Well, since Scholar Yan is not afraid of trouble, that's for the best."
Shopkeeper Li sighed slightly, then looked up at the rest of the Great Shang Jia on the second floor:
“So is there anyone else’s bid that is higher than Academician Yan’s bid?!!”
"If not, then I declare that this piece of Top Grade Ambergris belongs to Bachelor Yan!!!"
