Chapter 36 The truth is revealed

According to the rules of Jintao Pavilion, a commission of 5.00% will generally be taken.

In other words, if you sell 100 million taels of silver, Jintao Pavilion will draw 5 taels.

Judging from the list, it was a business worth two to three million taels of silver.

With just one order like this, Jintao Pavilion can earn more than [-] taels of silver.

If you don't make money, you are a fool.

The two chatted happily and quickly agreed on the auction time.

As for the goods to be auctioned, they still need to be appraised by experts from Jintao Pavilion, then set the price, send out the auction news, and finally hold an on-site auction.

Three days later, there happened to be a large auction.

Although the time is a bit rushed, it is still not too late.

Xia Wei personally walked Lu Hao to the door, watched him board a luxury carriage, and then drove away under the protection of a group of fully armed guards.

"Miss, everyone has gone away, but you still look at me!"

Liu Li joked with a smile.

"Damn girl, you actually dare to make fun of me. You are getting bolder and bolder!"

Xia Wei smiled shyly.

There is no way, such a rich and powerful young man, and he is so handsome.

What girl wouldn't be tempted?
"Miss, this Mr. Lu can actually mobilize the imperial guards for protection. Even if he is not a member of the royal family, he is still the son of a certain lord?"

Liu Li said to herself.

"Didn't you hear that his surname was Lu? It seems that the royal family's surname is Murong."

Xia Wei rolled her eyes.

"Miss, even if he is from the royal family, do you think he would say that his surname is Murong?"

Liu Li retorted.

"Well, what you said makes sense. If it's a royal family, then I have to be more careful."

Xia Wei nodded slightly, but was also secretly wary.

After all, being involved with the royal family is a double-edged sword.

Although Jintao Pavilion is rich and the Xia family is considered a wealthy family, compared with the royal family, they are just scum.

……

The next day.

At dawn, Lu Hao led people to the square outside the imperial city.

In his view, yesterday the content and location of the fundraising event was put into the hands of officials.

He also disclosed the donation status of the concubines in the palace to the outside world.

Someone will definitely come to donate today.

It's a pity that last night, the Prime Minister had already discussed how to deal with him.

Therefore, throughout the morning, not a single official came to collect donations.

As for those ordinary people, if no one takes the lead, they will definitely not come.

Only now did Lu Hao know how powerful the Prime Minister was in both the government and the public.

In this case, he didn't hesitate.

In the afternoon, I personally escorted the donated property to Jintao Pavilion.

Xia Wei came to receive it in person and found that this batch of gold and silver jewelry was of top quality and could be auctioned for several times the original price.

you do not say!

Is it possible that the things belonging to the Queen Mother and other noble concubines are of poor quality?

After receiving the goods, Jintao Pavilion's treasure appraisal experts immediately began to identify and price the goods.

Soon, a pricing list was delivered.

"Mr. Lu, this is the price, which is the starting price. Take a look."

Xia Wei handed over the list.

Lu Hao took it and looked at it carefully.

Although his face was calm, in fact, the excitement in his heart was hard to express.

This pricing is 50.00% higher than the previous pricing of Xiao Xizi!
In other words, it could have been sold for more than 200 million taels of silver.

Now it can be sold for more than 300 million taels.

If it were to be auctioned, wouldn't these top-quality pearls, jade, and top-quality emerald agate be sold for a higher price?

Now, even if those officials don't donate a penny, they can still complete the 500 million mission.

It will be easy to explain to the emperor then.

"Well, no problem, just follow this price."

Lu Hao made the final decision.

Xia Wei was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.Because this time, Jintao Pavilion also made a lot of money.

The two agreed to meet at the auction three days later, and then parted ways to say goodbye.

Lu Hao returned to the donation point in the Imperial City and found that it was the same as in the morning, no one came to donate money at all.

"Why is there still no one to donate? It seems that no one cares about the victims of Jianghuai County!"

Lu Hao sighed.

"Reporting to my father-in-law, it's not that people are unwilling to donate, but that someone is stopping them."

One of the Imperial Guardsmen reported.

"What? There is such a thing? Who is stopping it?"

Lu Hao's face darkened.

"I don't know who they are, but I saw them stuck on several arterial roads, blocking people who came to donate."

The Forbidden Army soldier explained.

"Very well, what's your name?"

Lu Hao looked at him.

"Reporting to my father-in-law, my name is Li Yuanjie."

The Imperial Guards officers responded loudly.

"Li Yuanjie, now lead a team of people. After changing their clothes, catch all those who are blocking me."

Lu Hao immediately ordered.

"Order!"

Li Yuanjie loudly accepted the order and left.

Lu Hao sat on a chair and waited for the good news, enjoying the warmth of the sun and feeling a little drowsy.

Suddenly, a loud noise woke him up.

"Eunuch, the Prime Minister is here!"

Deputy Commander Yan came closer and reported in a low voice.

Lu Hao rubbed his eyes and looked around, finding Yu Qian walking slowly with a group of ministers.

"Has this old boy figured it out? Did he bring everyone to donate money?"

Lu Hao said suspiciously.

Since the Prime Minister is here, he can no longer doze off.

"Master Prime Minister, what are you..."

Lu Hao frowned.

Because when he got closer, he saw that these people had mocking and gloating expressions on their faces. They were obviously here to see his joke.

"What? Still no one comes to donate?"

The Prime Minister sneered.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, you are indeed amazing! You hit the mark!"

Lu Hao smiled bitterly.

Damn old guy, it doesn't matter if you go against me, labor and management will kill you sooner or later.

A prime minister like this who doesn't care about the overall situation and the life and death of the people should be killed to eliminate harm for the people.

Yu Qian walked over slowly, picked up the blank silk on the table, and raised a pleasant sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Damn eunuch, you dare to go against me, now you know how powerful you are!
"Eunuch Lu, I heard that you boasted in front of the emperor that you wanted to raise 500 million taels of silver. I wonder how much you have accomplished?"

"If you fail to complete the errands assigned by the Emperor, do you think the Emperor will skin you? Trick your muscles?"

Yu Qian chuckled.

"It seems that the Prime Minister is here to see the slave's joke!"

Lu Hao laughed at himself.

"Yeah, the truth is, I just came here to see your joke. Weren't you bold yesterday? What? Are you misfiring today?"

Yu Qian was very angry.

Not bad, stop pretending!

The truth is revealed!
"Hahaha……"

The ministers who followed to see the joke all burst into laughter.

At this moment, Li Yuanjie's group of plainclothes forbidden troops strode over, escorting a few disheveled guys.

When Yu Qian and others saw it, their smiles suddenly froze.

"My lords, why don't you laugh?"

Lu Hao smiled contemptuously.

mock up!See how I deal with you!
