Chapter 66 Prohibited Transactions
Lin Yi was a little surprised why Ding Qiubai reacted so much when he heard Mo Bao.
Is there anything wrong with Mobao?
"Mr. Mu, you... don't want to buy Mobao?" Ding Qiubai couldn't see Lin Yi's expression, but the voice of the questioning was obviously lowered a lot.
"What?" Lin Yi did not answer directly.
"Haha... Qiubai made Mr. Mu laugh at it. Actually, it's nothing. I heard that the young master got a sage calligraphy at the Qinghe Cultural Conference yesterday. Although the jewelry treasure was explicitly banned by the dynasty, if Mr. Mu wanted it, Qiubai would try his best to find a way, but I don't know if Mr. Mu wants it or not?"
Ding Qiubai chuckled, and then his smile returned to his face.
Mobao, trading is prohibited...
What's going on?
Lin Yi was also a little confused when he heard this. Judging from Ding Qiubai's expression, he probably did not lie.
"Brother Ding, tell me." Lin Yi wanted to ask more why Mobao cannot be traded, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it would be better not to say it out loud.
"If Mr. Mu really wants it, there should be a place, but the asking price of the underground black market is usually relatively high! It is estimated that the lowest level of Mobao will cost about 300,000 taels of silver! If it is better, it will cost about one million taels. Haha, I think for Mr. Mu, there should be no problem with this amount of silver. If Mr. Mu wants it very urgently, then I will ask for you now?"
After Ding Qiubai finished speaking, he also waited for Lin Yi's answer with a smile on his face.
However, after hearing Ding Qiubai's words, Lin Yi felt a little surprised.
In fact, when he came to the auction house, he thought that Mobao might be more expensive, but he didn't expect it to be so expensive, more than 300,000 taels of silver? Or the lowest level Mobao?
How many divine texts can the lowest level of mobao accommodate?
These are all questions that Lin Yi didn't know, but after thinking about it carefully, Lin Yi was soon relieved.
As an existence that can engrave long divine documents, the meaning of the Mobao itself is already extraordinary, and it is also banned for trading, so the price is naturally even more exaggerated.
Scarcity is precious. If a thing is prohibited from trading, the price will inevitably increase several times, or even dozens of times, than its own value.
Just imagine, even if it is a treasure on the second floor of Taigu Fang, any one of them is tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of taels.
Then, it is not surprising that a piece of mourning treasure was sold to more than 300,000 taels of silver in the black market. It is estimated that the price Ding Qiubai said is still conservative. It is estimated that it will take nearly 400,000 to win a lowest-level mourning treasure.
"No need for now. I'm here to see the auction today!" Lin Yi thought about it and finally decided to put it aside for the time being.
The reason is very simple, he has no money.
After purchasing a batch of utensils and black stone powder in Taigu Fang last time, Lin Yi also spent some of them. Now the remaining silver bills are only about 60,000 taels, and the gap between them and 300,000 taels is indeed a bit big.
It seems that to become a strong man in this world, you not only have enough ability, but also have enough money. To buy Mobao, the first thing you need to do is to make money crazy!
Black market?
If you have the chance, you can go and have a look.
"Okay, when will Mr. Mu need it? Even if you come to Qiubai, the auction will begin soon. Mr. Mu, please follow me."
Ding Qiubai immediately led the way.
...
It has to be said that the publicity methods of Suntech Auction are indeed very powerful. Today's auction house is undoubtedly extremely popular. In the spacious hall, people are surging and noisy. Lin Yi, who stepped into the hall, was also confused. His ears were like a group of flies rushing, which made people feel upset.
Looking at the scattered hall, Ding Qiubai had a smile on his face. To him, being too crowded is not a bad thing, no one... that is really a bad thing.
"Mr. Mu, we have already arranged your seat. Please follow me to the second floor." Ding Qiubai also led Lin Yi to the second floor as he said.
Lin Yi nodded slightly. He naturally would not object to the treatment of VIP.
Following Ding Qiubai, he quickly went up to the second floor.
When Lin Yi stepped onto the second floor with the stairs paved with red carpets, he also found that the second floor was indeed much quieter than the first floor lobby. The luxurious gold and red layout highlighted the confidence of Suntech Auction as one of the three major auction houses in Dajing.
The mahogany posts stretched over the hall in a curved arc, and huge fur-paved chairs were arranged horizontally behind the mahogany posts.
And the chairs were also filled with young men and beauties in brocade clothes.
What surprised Lin Yi was that Shen Feixue's super prodigal son was there too! However, today Shen Feixue did not wear her fluffy armor, but instead put on a pink floral skirt, which made her look a bit like a little woman.
Of course, Lin Yi will definitely not use the word "green" to this super prodigal son.
In addition to the super prodigal son Shen Feixue, Lin Yi also discovered several other acquaintances, Mingjin Hou wearing golden brocade clothes, and a man wearing blue brocade clothes. The demon Lin Wensheng.
They're all there?
"Mr. Mu, your seat is at No. 5, please follow me." Ding Qiubai directly led Lin Yi to the fifth chair.
"Yo! Wearing a torn mask? Are you that Mu Shuangyi?"
Just as Lin Yi was about to sit down, a sharp sound came from a position not far away.
When Ding Qiubai heard this, he also wrinkled his head slightly.
"Mr. Mu, I believe you should still remember Fang Dingtian, the seventh son of the Great Chu who was defeated by you at the Qinghe Cultural Conference. This person is called Fang Xiaonan. He and Fang Dingtian both belong to the Fang family, and Fang Xiaonan is Fang Dingtian's cousin. However, Fang Xiaonan and Fang Dingtian are far inferior to Fang Dingtian. They are a playboy, and the famous people in the Great Jing are stupid and have more money. You don't have to pay attention to it."
Ding Qiubai lowered his head and said in a low voice in Lin Yi's ear.
After saying that, Ding Qiubai also bowed to Fang Xiaonan.
"Young Master Fang! You are like you, Mr. Mu is a VIP at our Shangde Auction House. At this auction, Qiubai also hopes that Mr. Fang can get along well with Mr. Mu."
"Hahaha... Manager Ding said this. Please rest assured. It is not the first time that we, Xiaonan, have come to your Shangde Auction House. Naturally, we will not make any noise at your auction."
A sharp voice came again.
Lin Yi looked at him and saw a young man wearing a green brocade dress with a black mole on the corner of his mouth sitting at the No. 6 position.
Are you stupid and have more money?
This is an advantage!
"I often hear people mention an ancient animal named dog. The biggest feature of this animal is that it likes to bark and does not like to bark. Generally speaking, dogs that do not like to bark like to bite people, while dogs that like to bark actually do not bite people!"
Lin Yi has always regarded people as stupid money as the greatest glory in human nature, so he also said to himself while sitting down slowly.
"Puchi!" Lin Wensheng laughed when he heard Lin Yi's words.
"Hahaha... Mu Shuangyi, I said it well, I support you!" Chen Feixue also stood up at this time and shouted loudly.
The Mingjin Hou looked at Lin Yi without saying a word.
"Mu Shuangyi, what do you mean by saying this?" Fang Xiaonan was unhappy when he heard this, and stood up directly.
"It's not interesting. I just kindly reminded you not to shout..." Lin Yi said calmly.
"You... Mu Shuangyi, don't think it's great if you can write a few local books. I will tell you that this is not the Qinghe Cultural Society, but the auction! Nothing is good here, only silver notes are easy to talk about! You just said that I don't bite people, right? I will bite you today, I want to see if you can take a treasure today!"
When Fang Xiaonan heard Lin Yi's words, he was also furious.
Chapter completed!
