Chapter 15 Start

Su Jiu scanned the banquet, and his eyes fell on the middle-aged man in the third row.

This person looked very inconspicuous, and under his slightly squinted eyes, there was a little shrewdness.But Su Jiu knew that this man seemed low-key, but he was one of Dayan's top imperial merchants.

"Thank you for your support. All the money in today's donation will be used for the construction of the Salesian Hall and future expenditures. Please have fun!"

When the donation meeting started, Su Jiu took out the Queen's East Shark Bead, which exuded a gentle luster under the cover of darkness all around.Like moonlight, but a little brighter.

Immediately there was an exclamation from the audience
"Is this a pearl? I have never seen such a bright pearl!"

"That's right! It's still daytime, if it's nighttime, wouldn't it be unnecessary to light candles in the house?"

Su Jiu was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. "This is a tribute from the East China Sea. It is provided by the current empress. The current starting price is 100 taels."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay when they heard about the objects in the palace.It's still the queen's East shark bead, the starting price of 100 taels is indeed not expensive, but...

Who buys things and the prices are cheap!
Banshang, someone held up a placard, "One hundred and one taels!"

It was Su Qing who spoke.

Su Jiu seriously suspected that the other party was here to make trouble. "Ninth Sister, I'm really sorry. Huangjie really likes this Dongjiao Pearl. It's just that I'm short of money recently. Ninth Sister won't blame me!"

"Of course, it's all everyone's wishes. How can this palace blame me!" A princess asked for a price, which was only one or two taels more than the auction price. How could others dare to rush to the auction.

Su Jiu clapped his hands, and saw two Qilin guards standing in front of the stage carrying a three-meter-high stone stele, "I forgot to say that everyone who bid today will carve on the stone stele and stand it in front of the city gate to thank you for your support." Support for the national economy and the people's livelihood. Similarly, a copy of the results of today's donation meeting will be left on His Majesty's case table, and His Majesty will replace Dayan Zimin at that time to thank you all for your generosity."

Su Jiu never minded, so he pulled a banner to make a tiger skin.If others are not satisfied with the auction price of the queen's East Shark Bead, I'm afraid that the sixth princess Su Qing will not be the only one suffering.

Everyone's eyes shifted to Su Qing, at this time Su Qing's face was already blurred.

She obviously just wanted to slap soda in the face by paying a tael higher than the auction price.Unexpectedly, Su Jiu took out the stone tablet and set her on the fire to roast her.

"Haha... This Dongzhu Zhu grassman saw it, and really liked it, Princess Six, I'm sorry!" The emperor merchant who seemed inconceivable stood up, and cupped his hands in Su Qing's direction, "The grassroots offer 500 taels!"

"Treasurer Tong bid 500 taels, is there anyone else asking for a price?"

"600 taels!"

"700 taels!"

Shopkeeper Tong broke the stalemate just now, and everyone's emotions were slowly mobilized. From the corner of Su Jiu's eyes, he looked at the deflated Su Qing, not to mention how happy he was.

Halfway through the donation meeting, it's time for singing and dancing.Su Jiu took advantage of this time to step down to drink and take a break.

"Little Su Jiu, have you ever said that you are quite suitable to be an auctioneer?" Liang Xiao touched Su Jiu with his shoulder.

Just now, after listening to Su Jiu's impassioned speech on the stage, the dazzling light seemed to emanate from his whole body, and everyone couldn't help but look at her like her.

"Thank you!" Su Jiu reassured the teacup, "If it wasn't for the lack of money to hold the Salesian Church, who would take this job! But watching these dignitaries bloodletting, it's quite a sense of accomplishment."

Su Jiu was whispering to Liang Xiao when a servant's voice came from outside the door, "Princess Dehua is here!"

Dehua's bright red dress is dazzling, and the maid next to her is still busy throwing petals to the side. She is obviously only a princess, but her ostentation is bigger than her and Su Qing's two princesses.

"Ninth Sister, is this how you treat guests? The princess is here, but there is no receptionist at the door!" Before he could stand still, De Hua came up with a warning.

Su Jiu raised his eyebrows, now he felt more and more that Princess Dehua was out of his mind.

"It's been an hour since the donation meeting, how did my highness know you would come!" Su Jiu didn't intend to meet Princess Dehua, and shifted his gaze to Fu Qingye who was beside Dehua, "Why? Attend the donation meeting, Dehua Princess Hua, I don't forget to bring the doormen with me at all times?"

Fu Qingye's face looked rather haggard, even now that he was dressed in fine clothes, it couldn't cover up the bruises under his eyes, as if he had been drained of energy.

How could Dehua fail to hear the sarcasm in Su Jiu's words, but so what, the morals of this world are harsh on women, she is also the princess of the dynasty, and her mother said: I only want her to be unrestrained and unrestrained in her life.

"Why are you talking so much, hurry up and arrange a seat for the princess!" Princess Dehua leaned on Fu Qingye in front of Su Jiu.Anyone can see that the relationship between the two of them is unusual.

"I'm sorry, Princess Dehua. The donation meeting is already halfway through. Since you have no intention of donating to the Salesian Hall, the Princess Mansion will not entertain you!" Su Jiu was too lazy to watch Princess Dehua and Fu Qingye in front of her. Show affection, open your mouth to chase people away.

"What do you mean?" Princess Dehua was in a hurry. Before she came, the eldest princess told her to perform well at the donation meeting and win a good reputation. Don't let Su Jiu take all of her halo. She just came here , was driven away, isn't this a slap in the face of her!
"That's right! Sister Jiu, Sister Dehua is just a little bit late, so please forgive me!" Su Qing smiled and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

Although she doesn't like the domineering Princess Dehua, but the enemy of an enemy is a friend, of course she wants to speak for Princess Dehua at this time.

"Heh!" Su Jiu almost laughed angrily, "The main purpose of this donation is to make an effort for the elderly and young children of Dayan. Everyone came here with sincerity, but I don't know that Princess Dehua is deliberately late." After an hour, the song and dance performance was interrupted, where is the sincerity? You must give an explanation to everyone sitting here!"

"Sincerity? It's hard to say!" Princess Dehua ordered the boy to carry up a big box, "There are 1000 taels of silver in it, which counts as my contribution to the Salesian Church. Ninth Princess, may I now Did you go in!"

Su Jiu took a deep breath, Dehua is really not in vain as a princess, the 1000 taels of snowflake silver can be taken as he pleases, and others can exchange it for something at auction anyway, Dehua is an unconditional gift!

Naturally, Su Jiu wouldn't make things difficult for Yinzi.A seat and 1000 taels of silver.Which is more important and which is less important, Su wine is very clear, and immediately ordered Qingfeng with a smile, "give a seat to Princess Dehua!"

Say it!Don't forget to let people carry the silver away.

"Huh! Money fan!" Princess Dehua snorted coldly and sat down.

Su Jiu looked thoughtfully at Fu Qingye who was following Princess Dehua. It turned out that she was the one who praised Fu Qingye too highly. Without her care, Fu Qingye followed Princess Dehua and even took a seat. They are not worthy, and can only beg for pity from the other party like a male pet.
