Chapter 82 Tasting Party (Part 2)
This is what His Majesty Li Er saw through the holes in the wall.
And because of the angle, he could see more clearly, so clearly that he could even see the dazzling sunlight shining on the treasure, turning into a colorful rainbow passing through the void...
Not surprisingly, His Majesty Li Er was also severely shocked.
A baby who can summon a rainbow?
What an artifact...
It took a long time before His Majesty Li Er came back to his senses. He suddenly turned around, stared at Fang Jun and said, "Where did this thing come from?"
Fired in a brick kiln... Fang Jun thought to himself.
Of course you can't say that, it won't be worth anything if you say it, but it's hard to think of excuses. There are loopholes no matter how you say it, so you have to make nonsense.
"Someone was fishing in the Wei River a few days ago and accidentally fished this thing out of the river."
Anyway, it’s just lies, you can say whatever you want, believe it or not, I can’t help it...
His Majesty Li Er naturally didn't believe it. He snorted angrily and said, "Dedicate this treasure to the palace."
"What?"
Fang Jun thought he was hearing hallucinations and looked at His Majesty Li Er in disbelief.
"Even if it is picked up, it is an ownerless thing. If it is the king's land in the whole world, it is an ownerless thing, and it is mine!"
His Majesty Li Er said with a domineering look.
Fang Jun almost scolded his mother. Are you too domineering?
He never thought that His Majesty Li Er would meet Lie Xinxi and want to take this thing for himself.
No wonder, on the one hand, he is still a modern person, subconsciously thinking that there must be a limit to even plundering, right? Besides, he didn’t think of this thing as a treasure at all, so he didn’t think about it at all...
At this time, the sound in the front hall suddenly increased.
"This is Tianshui Zhang Ye. I dare to ask this little brother if this thing can be transferred? If you are interested, the price is not a big deal!"
"Yes, yes, if you sell it, make a price!"
"I am the steward of Duke Lu's house. I have always been on good terms with your Fang family. If I want to sell it, I cannot sell it to anyone else!"
Everyone clamored together and were shocked by this magical treasure. They all wanted to buy it. Although they knew that ordinary people would never sell this kind of treasure, there was a stick in the house. How could normal people think of the idea of a stick? , what if he is willing to sell it?
"Two thousand strings!"
A domineering voice sounded, and everyone was startled, thinking who is this, a rich man with such a big deal?
When I turned around and looked at it, I was immediately convinced. He was really rich, the majestic King of Wei...
Li Tai said slowly: "As long as your government is willing to transfer, I will immediately send someone to deliver two thousand guan!"
Fang Sihai was a little embarrassed and said: "It's not impossible to transfer..."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was overjoyed and cursed in their hearts.
Fang Er, Fang Er, he is really a stick. Can such a treasure that is so incredible that it can be measured with money? What a fool...
But I heard Fang Sihai continue slowly: "But Erlang said before he left, whoever wants to get this treasure, the lowest price should not be less than three thousand guan..."
Even when someone shouted: "Someone has three thousand swords!"
Li Tai's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Who doesn't want to give him face? I turned around to look and found that it was Changsun Wuji's second son, Changsun Huan, and I felt even more unhappy. It’s just that he doesn’t support me to ascend to the reserve position. He even robs me of an object. Why does that uncle dislike me so much?
When Chang Sun Huan saw Li Tai looking over, he actually winked and looked sullen, trying his best to provoke Li Tai, which almost made Li Tai angry.
Li Tai ignored Changsun Huan and shouted loudly: "Five thousand strings!"
Before he finished speaking, Changsun Huan shouted again: "Seven thousand strings!"
The sound of needles dropping could be heard in the hall, and everyone could tell that Zhang Sun Huan was having an affair with Li Tai, so they all kept silent and stayed out of the matter.
Everyone present is rich and powerful, and there are many who can bring about tens of thousands of dollars. There are also many who are willing to spend a lot of money for this artifact, but no one is stupid enough to rashly intervene in the fight between Changsun Huan and Li Tai at this time. .
Changsun Huan is the second son of the Changsun family. He has always been unruly and willful. He is not favored by the elders in the family, and he has no say. He cannot afford the huge sum of 7,000 yuan. But now he dares to challenge Wei Wang Li Tai in public. Where does he have the confidence?
It makes people think a lot. Could it be that it was done intentionally under the instruction of Changsun Wuji?
Li Tai was so angry that his face turned blue, but he was unable to move forward or retreat.
He originally intended to buy this treasure as a gift to his father. With his father's character of advocating the way of heaven, he must be extremely happy. It's not that he can't afford to spend eighteen thousand guan, but buying this thing at such a high price will inevitably lead to the impeachment of the imperial censor. If not, it will even make his father dissatisfied. Isn't it counterproductive?
But if you run away from the battlefield, you can't afford to lose that person.
When I was hesitating, I suddenly heard someone not far behind me saying loudly: "Ten thousand guan!"
Li Tai looked back and was immediately overjoyed to see that it was Du Huaigong, the legitimate son of the Du family. He let out a sigh of relief and watched with a smile as Du Huaigong fought with Changsun Huan.
The Du family is closely related to him and has huge wealth, so it would be perfect for him to step in.
Du Huaigong looked at Changsun Huan proudly.

In the back hall, His Majesty Li Er looked unhappy.
These prodigal things are not afraid of being punished by the elders in the family for such nonsense?
He glanced sideways at Fang Jun and said, "Why, you don't want to?"
Fang Jun is dissatisfied, is he willing? Who the hell can be willing? He really didn't expect His Majesty Li Er to have such a domineering and arrogant side.
I don’t want to in my heart, but I dare not say it with my mouth. Fortunately, there are plenty of these things...
He said: "If His Majesty likes it, it is the honor of the common people. I will give another one to Your Majesty later..."
Before I finished speaking, I almost gave myself a slap in the face, saying that I was bald...
Who is His Majesty Li Er? Immediately he heard the meaning of Fang Jun's words and wondered: "Is there more than one of these things?"
Fang Jun quickly made up his mind: "All things given by God are one yin and one yang, and the positive and negative complement each other. This thing was born from the creation of heaven and earth, and it is no exception..."
His Majesty Li Er was still confused, but he couldn't fault his words, so he could only nod.
Fang Jun was moved in his heart, walked to the door, called a servant over, and gave instructions in a low voice.

lobby.
Changsun Huan looked unhappy, because Du Huaigong was very dissatisfied with the robbery and he seemed to be hesitating whether to continue to increase the price.
At this time, the servant in the room called Sihai and whispered a few words. Then he returned to the front desk and said loudly: "This thing is a gift from heaven. It can be divided into yin and yang. This piece is yin, and the other half is yang. It has been given by my family." Erlang is younger than your Majesty and is included in the palace..."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
There are actually two such artifacts?
Ordinarily, being the only one in the world is completely different from being the only one by chance, so the value will naturally be weakened.
But there are yin and yang, which means that they are a pair, and the other one is already in your majesty's hands. If I get this one, and then give it to your majesty, so that your majesty can gather this pair of artifacts, wouldn't it be Long Yan's great joy?
Changsun Huan reacted the fastest, and immediately said carelessly: "Twenty thousand guan!"
"Hiss——"
There was a gasp in the hall, like a collective toothache...
Although everyone knows that this thing can please His Majesty, is it too much?
However, before they could calm down, they heard Du Huaigong say: "Thirty thousand strings!"
Now that the tooth pain stopped, everyone finally decided that the Changsun family and the Du family were going to war!
Du Huaigong was no longer calm, thirty thousand guan?
During the Zhenguan period, the world was in chaos, and the scattered people returned to their hometowns with only three or four qian per bucket of rice. Even if there was an occasional disaster, they could only get 5 or 6 qian at most.
The usual money is 1,000 coins, and based on the calculation of 4 coins per dou of rice, the regular money can buy 250 dou of rice.
A bucket weighs about thirty kilograms, and with regular money you can buy seven thousand five hundred kilograms of rice.
What about thirty thousand guan?
Twenty million catties of grain...
Converted to the price of rice in later generations, these 30,000 guan are roughly equivalent to 500 million!
You know, during the Zhenguan period, the taxes collected by the Tang Dynasty in a year were only 20 million yuan!
Du Huaigong hesitated in his heart, wondering whether he should continue to increase the price.
He secretly took a look at Li Tai, only to see Li Tai chin slightly.
Du Huaigong suddenly became energetic and shouted, "Forty thousand guans!"
Don't blame him for being excited. Looking at the world, who can have such courage to spend millions of dollars? There is no doubt that in a short time, his name, Du Huaigong, will be spread all over the world and become a good talk, and it is not impossible to even leave his name in history!
Li Tai was so angry that he almost vomited blood and cursed this idiot in his heart. Changsun Huan was already at the end of his strength. He only needed to add a little bit to completely defeat his confidence. Do you need to open his mouth to add ten thousand guan to ten thousand guan?
As expected, Changsun Huan sighed helplessly, shrugged, and sat back in his seat with a slumped head.
Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded, forty thousand guan?
I can buy the entire Xinfeng County...(End of Chapter)
