Chereads / The Divine Doctor Favored Concubine / Chapter 121 - Chapter 122 Envy

Chapter 121 - Chapter 122 Envy

Ouyang Wu started to prepare for the auction after returning from Anyang Palace.

Ye Chonghua wanted to lock Ouyang Wu up at home and not let her go anywhere. She had to deal with so many things with a big belly.

But when he saw the confident look on her face and her beaming face when talking about business, he was reluctant to break her wings. His Wuer was different.

Ye Chonghua was afraid that she would be tired, so he accompanied her throughout the whole process whenever he had time. In fact, he was really curious about Ouyang Wu's ideas.

Ouyang Wu called the two managers of Liulifang and told them the process of the auction and the preliminary preparations. The two managers were also knowledgeable, but after listening to Ouyang Wu's plan, their eyes lit up and they felt like they had found a treasure. They had never heard of such an idea before. Princess Ning's method not only solved the problem of customer sources, but also ensured a steady flow of money.

They asked several more questions they didn't understand, and Ouyang Wu answered them one by one.

After the two left, Ouyang Wu stretched out tiredly. She had been getting heavier recently, and even sitting for a while was tiring.

Ye Chonghua was listening quietly, with an admiring look in his eyes. Seeing her tired face, he pulled her over and leaned her against his arms. He put his strong palms on her back and gently massaged her.

Ye Chonghua pressed with moderate force. Ouyang Wu half lay in his arms, half squinting her eyes and sighing softly.

"As the Princess of Ning, are you afraid of being hungry? Why do you make yourself so tired?" Ye Chonghua said unhappily.

Ouyang Wu looked back at him and smiled, "You are obviously worried about the baby in my belly."

Ye Chonghua pursed his lips and frowned slightly: "Princess, what do you mean, this king doesn't care about you at all?"

Ouyang Wu deliberately said: "Yes, yes, you always say this and that, you were never like this before. If it's not worrying about the child, then what is it."

"It's unreasonable." Ye Chonghua smiled and stroked his forehead, and then a layer of anger appeared on his face, "You are a heartless girl."

Ouyang Wu pulled his hand over, her fingers were slender and beautiful, she held his fingers tightly, leaned lazily on him, and raised her red lips slightly.

Then she slowly said: "Thank you for always letting me do whatever I want."

Ye Chonghua half-hugged her in his arms, his eyes full of a layer of unbreakable doting.

Liulifang will hold an auction in three days.

The news of the auction of glass distribution rights spread quickly, and many people were curious about this new term. Some people also understood that as long as the auction was successful, they could get the supply from Ouyang Wu and open their own glass shop. All of a sudden, merchants from all over the country rushed to the auction. This grand occasion was unprecedented. However, not every merchant could participate in the auction. Those who were interested had to submit a letter of intent to Ouyang Wu first. Ouyang Wu sent someone to conduct an inspection, and then screened and listed the names. Then he sent someone to deliver the admission tickets specially made for the auction to the managers of each merchant. The auction was held at Shanhezhai, the largest restaurant in the capital. On the day of the auction, the entire restaurant was booked by Ouyang Wu. Some guards transferred from the Ning Wang Mansion surrounded it. A stage was set up inside the venue, and rows of seats were neatly arranged under the stage. They were divided into five areas, namely Hebei, Huaidong, Lingnan, Guanzhong, and Longxi. Before entering the venue, the restaurant was surrounded by a crowd of people. Merchants from all over the place gathered outside the restaurant, and some people stopped to watch out of curiosity. It was very lively for a while.

In the minds of the people, the current Princess Ning is a magical existence. It seems that everything related to her will always cause a sensation in the capital.

"What is Princess Ning doing?"

"It is said that she is auctioning the distribution rights of glass..."

"What does this mean?"

"Anyway, Princess Ning is famous and will make a lot of money!"

The people's eyes showed a proud look again. The princess's glass will be popular all over the country: "Princess Ning is really amazing."

"Yes, yes."

Ouyang Wu sat in the private room upstairs, leisurely tasting tea. This position is very good. She is not convenient to show up, but she can take a comprehensive view of the overall situation here. The host and auctioneer of the auction are respectively served by two stewards, and the notary is the King of Anyang.

When the time was almost up, Ouyang Wu nodded to the people around her: "Let them in."

The footsteps faded away, and then the merchants waiting outside the restaurant entered one after another. The guards at the door let them in after seeing the tokens in their hands. Although it was lively, it was also orderly.

After all the invited merchants entered and sat down, the guards closed the door of the restaurant.

Without the noise just now, the hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone looked at each other with confusion, not knowing what to do next.

A servant quickly served tea and snacks to each table. A curious person pulled the servant to ask, but the servant just said he didn't know.

Slowly, everyone calmed down, drinking tea on the table and occasionally looking at the people around them.

Ouyang Wu held the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said, "Let's start." A middle-aged man walked out of the high platform. It was Manager Lin. He walked to the center of the platform and said, "Everyone, I am the host of this auction and the manager of Liulifang. You can call me Manager Lin." After a pause, he continued, "The notary of this auction is King Anyang. Please welcome King Anyang." Everyone was unable to react. They had never seen such a situation before. When they saw King Anyang coming out from the back, they reacted and stood up and saluted. King Anyang had lived for most of his life and had never seen such a scene. He nodded and took a seat: "No need to be polite." Manager Lin said, "The auction is about to start. Please get ready." After that, he stepped aside and another man came out from the back. It was another manager, Manager Yang. With a smile on his face, he walked to the gong hanging in the middle of the stage, picked up the gong hammer, and struck the gong surface, which made a "clang" sound.

Putting down the gong hammer, Manager Yang said loudly: "The auction officially begins. The following are the auction rules of this auction. Please listen carefully."

"The object of this auction is the glass distribution rights of Liulifang, which are divided into five places: Hebei, Huaidong, Lingnan, Guanzhong, and Longxi. Merchants in each place can only bid in their own area and cannot cross borders. This is the first."

"Second, the auction reserve price is 100 taels, and each increase in price must not be less than 50 taels. The highest bidder wins. If no one bids after the last bidder makes a bid and counts down three times, the last bidder will be the winner. One bidder wins the distribution rights."

"Third, the winner pays the money and signs the contract to win the distribution rights."

"Finally, all merchants who win the distribution rights can only sell in the local area. If they cross the border, they will pay ten times the money earned from cross-border sales to the merchants in the cross-border area."

"The above is the rules of this auction. The auction officially begins!"

Although the merchants sitting below did not understand it very well, they also understood that today it was money that mattered. The highest bidder won. For a moment, this new experience made them excited.

Yang Guanshi looked at everyone and said loudly: "The first item is the distribution rights in Hebei region. The reserve price is one hundred taels. The bidding begins!"

"One hundred and fifty taels!" As soon as Yang Guanshi finished speaking, a merchant in Hebei region shouted immediately.

"Okay, one hundred and fifty taels!" Yang Guanshi said loudly. The rest of the merchants in Hebei were stunned, and some of them were confused. After a while, someone hesitated and said, "Two hundred taels."

"Two hundred taels, do you have any more?" Manager Yang asked loudly.

Now everyone knew how to bid, and they were eager to try.

"Two hundred and fifty taels!"

"Three hundred and fifty taels!"

...

"One thousand taels!"

"Okay, one thousand taels, do you have any more? One thousand taels once, one thousand taels twice, one thousand taels three times, deal!" Manager Yang picked up the gong hammer excitedly and knocked it, and the bid was successful.

"Please ask this merchant to go to the backstage to pay the money and sign the contract. Don't worry, our contracts are all notarized and sealed by King Anyang."

King Anyang nodded in his seat to show his authority.

The merchant who won the distribution rights stood up excitedly and walked into the backstage under the guidance of the servant who came to lead him.

"Okay, now the second item, the Huaidong regional distribution rights, the reserve price is one hundred taels, the bidding begins!"

With the success of the first distribution rights auction, the atmosphere became more and more heated, and the bidding sounded one after another, even the Anyang King who was sitting above felt his blood boiling.

Ouyang Wu sat in the private room and watched the whole process. Seeing the situation on the scene, he smiled with satisfaction.

She stood up, stroked her sleeves, and prepared to leave. Zhu Lu, who was watching with interest, couldn't help but said: "Princess, don't you want to watch it?"

Ouyang Wu smiled faintly: "Let's go back, I'm a little tired."

In the end, the distribution rights of the five places were sold for one thousand taels, one thousand five hundred taels, two thousand three hundred taels, two thousand five hundred taels, and one thousand eight hundred taels respectively. The merchants who won the bid were extremely excited, and the merchants who didn't win the bid were dejected, but then they felt no regrets. It was worth it to witness such a unique auction!

The auction of Liulifang was very popular in the whole capital for a while, and it was also a hot topic for the people after dinner. These are the stories for later.

The business of Liulifang was very popular in the capital. Since joining Liulifang, Prince Anyang has paid attention to it. Whenever he has time, he will go to Liulifang to take a look. Looking at this prosperous store, he feels a little complacent in his heart, and he also has a part in it.

After all, it is the business of Prince Ning's Mansion. Even if some people are jealous, not everyone can think about Prince Ning's Mansion.

The things about Liulifang are too lively, even the women who stay at home can know a thing or two.

When this matter was passed to Liu of the Third Prince's Mansion, she began to feel a little uneasy, and her eyes were jealous.

Now that Prince Anyang has joined Liulifang, he will definitely make a lot of money. As the third brother of Prince Ning, the relationship between the Third Prince and him is naturally very close. How can such a good opportunity be missed?
