The moment Li Chenyang entered the auction house, he attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone else walked in, but Li Chenyang's arrival on the bed attracted everyone's attention.
"Young master, the room is narrow. How about you enter the auction house?”
The servant girl Yun 'er put her hands on her hips and rebuked angrily," My young master is weak and sickly. He's still here to take care of your business even when he's so sick. Can't he just lie on his bed and enter?"”
Yun 'er had a delicate figure, but she was not afraid of the strong auction manager. Instead, she exuded a domineering aura that no one dared to underestimate.
Seeing her domineering look, everyone shook their heads and criticized her for not being girly at all.
Li Chenyang was very touched. He took out an ingot of gold and threw it to Yun 'er."Yun 'er, you are not allowed to be so insolent in the future. However, on account of your loyalty to protect your master, I will not punish you this time. This gold ingot will be your warning.”
Everyone's jaws dropped.
Was this a punishment or a reward? Who would give someone gold as a punishment?
Not long after, dozens of servants rushed into the room from all directions and glared at Li Chenyang.
Li Chenyang did not panic at all. He even whistled.
Immediately, the personal guards of Duke Wei's Public House rushed in.
He immediately reacted and nodded with a smile,""So it's the son of the prime minister. You look a little unfamiliar. Could it be that you're the Third Young Master Li who has always been in Jiangnan? I failed to recognize Mount Tai. Please forgive me. Men, prepare a first-class seat for Young Master Li and serve him with good tea and water.”
He looked around the room and saw a big stage in front of him. There was a table in the middle of the stage with a wooden hammer on it. It was obvious that it was a standard auction house.
Below the stage, there were dozens of soft cushions neatly placed. These were the seats.
In the Great Tang, there was no such thing as a chair, and the posture was not the same as in the 21st century, but a kneeling position.
Although Li Chenyang was determined to become the prodigal king, it did not mean that he was an unreasonable person.
If a two-meter-long wooden bench went in, it would not affect others. Moreover, time was tight, and he did not want to waste too much time on placing the wooden bench.
With Yun 'er's help, Li Chenyang tried his best to sit up straight and waited for the next round of bidding.
As Li Chenyang sat down, the auction house returned to silence.
The auctioneer smiled and said to everyone," I am very happy to inform everyone that today's auction items are very precious. There are precious herbs and rare treasures. I hope that everyone will have a big harvest today.”
He knocked on the seat and said loudly,"Now, the first item is an Arabian carpet from the Western Regions. The starting price is the same!”
Li Chenyang gave Yun 'er a look. Yun' er understood and shouted,""Two strings!"
Li Chenyang was so angry that he coughed and reprimanded,""What nonsense are you spouting?"
The surrounding people also accused Yun 'er of not knowing what was good for her and not playing by the rules.
Zhangsun Chong, who had followed closely behind Li Chenyang, said sarcastically,""You are just an ant in front of me. You actually taught your servant girl a lesson for a mere two strings. I really feel ashamed for you and sad for your servant girl. I'll buy this Arabian carpet for five strings.”
"Wow, Young Master Zhangsun is really rich!”
"As expected of Lord Sikong's son, he is indeed rich.”
"Yes, yes, yes. Young Master Zhangsun and Princess Chang Le are a match made in heaven.”
Li Chenyang did not think much of everyone's flattery of Zhangsun Chong. When he saw Zhangsun Chong's arrogant and provocative gaze, Li Chenyang was even more disdainful.
He coughed and slowly said," How poor. Arabian carpets are healthy, unique, decorative, and easy to maintain. Not only are they exquisitely crafted, but they also have a long lifespan. A typical hand-woven Arabian carpet can last up to a hundred years. Such an exquisite piece of art, yet you only offered five strings? I'll buy it for ten strings."
As he spoke, he leaned against Yun 'er and deliberately reminded her,""May I ask if your auction house will set up some restrictions in the future to exclude some people who are poor and pretend to be fat, so as not to annoy others?”
The moment Li Chenyang finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Everyone was stunned, either admiring, stunned, or ashamed.
Ten strings of coins! A bucket of rice in the Great Tang was only three coins, and ten strings of coins could buy 3333 buckets of rice, which was equivalent to 20833 kilograms of rice.
It was enough for the family to eat for a long time.
Everyone shook their heads.
"Big deal, big deal!"
Zhangsun Chong felt that he had lost face. His face twisted rapidly, squeezing the scar on his left cheek into a ball. He shouted,"I'll buy it for 11 Guan!"
"12 strings!" Li Chenyang said with his eyes closed.”
"1…"
Zhangsun Chong interrupted Li Chenyang.
"20 strings!"
Li Chenyang suddenly made a face at Zhangsun Chong and revealed an evil smile.
Zhangsun Chong's heart tightened,"Oh no, I've been tricked!"
"20 strings going once, 20 strings going twice, 20 strings going thrice. Congratulations, Young Master Zhangsun, for bringing you an Arabian carpet. Young Master Zhangsun was truly the most forthright person in the world!”
Li Chenyang and Yun 'er looked at each other and laughed. After laughing, Li Chenyang spat and said,""You dare to fight me? Squandering is also a skill. You're too inexperienced compared to me!”
