"Brother Gu has a saying that is good. Since you are in business, you must get something for your efforts. Brother Gu paid for high-yielding grains, but what he wants to gain is not money. Although this matter is a bit strange,

But we, Old Cheng, have no intention of getting to the bottom of it. We, Old Cheng, only care about one thing, and that is that our Cheng family needs this kind of grain..."

During a long speech, Cheng Yaojin was the first to stand up.

This guy seemed to be a reckless man, but he was clean and neat in his work. He suddenly raised the price and said, "Promise, right? The Cheng family can give it! Increase the population by 25,000 within three years. This is the solemn promise made by our Cheng family."

Brother Gu, you can rest assured that we, Old Cheng, promise not to do that kind of vain thing. Since we have given the promise, the whole family will definitely work hard. The Cheng family will not move farmers elsewhere to make up for their income, and will definitely develop the population of Zhuangzi.

."

"good!"

Gu Tianya opened his mouth to praise.

At the same time, I thought highly of Lao Cheng.

The reason is very simple. Lao Cheng helped him raise the price. He has been hinting tonight that the bidding requires competition. Although the lowest bidding price is 20,000 people, it is definitely not possible to trade at the lowest price. Except for Li Shimin, who is special, anyone else

No one can resort to tricks.

If you want sweet potato seeds, you have to compete with each other.

Lao Cheng obviously saw Gu Tianya's intention, so he directly increased the price without anyone competing. This is a kind of cooperation, which can also be called a 'bidding agent'. It is easy to offend people by doing this kind of thing, but

Lao Cheng did it without hesitation.

What does it mean to be a good team player? This is what it means to be a good team player. Even if you risk offending more than a hundred colleagues, you still have to help Gu Tianya implement his intentions. This alone shows Lao Cheng's sincerity.

.

However, Gu Tianya did not give the hammer down directly. Instead, he slowly looked at the people in the courtyard and asked with a smile: "The Cheng family has made a bid. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?"

Everyone in the audience was slightly hesitant.

Cheng Yaojin directly raised the price by 5,000 people. These 5,000 people are not a small number. In particular, there is a premise that people cannot be relocated to make up the population. Under this harsh premise, adding an additional 5,000 people in three years is not a trivial matter.

.

"Is anyone raising the price?"

"Is anyone raising the price?"

Gu Tianya asked twice in a row.

Immediately, he picked up the small wooden hammer and struck it with a bang.

The deal is settled!

A planting booklet was thrown into Lao Cheng's hands. This meant that the Cheng family had obtained a share of grain seeds and was considered the second buyer in tonight's auction.

It wasn't until this moment that Gu Tianya spoke again, but this time, his tone was vaguely indifferent, saying: "Actually, I know everyone's plan. You are all thinking about buying this sweet potato from me. After all, this time

The crops are extremely productive, and after three years there will be a huge harvest. For example, Shimin's second brother bought five grain seeds, and after three years he will have a harvest of at least 150,000 shi. 150,000 shi, converted into jin liang, is 15 million jin. So.

With the huge output, sweet potato seeds were no longer valuable at that time..."

He paused for a moment, glanced at everyone's faces, and said with a smile: "15 million kilograms of sweet potatoes can supply seeds for 500,000 acres of land. At that time, you can go to my second brother to buy them. Just

You need to pay a little money to get the grain you want, instead of having to make a commitment to bid for me like now. Things are hard and easy, and everyone wants to choose the easy way to escape. So, I don't hate everyone's

This plan."

He exposed everyone's thoughts so directly, making the atmosphere in the yard extremely awkward. Unfortunately, although the atmosphere was awkward, no one spoke up. It was obvious that everyone was really thinking about this. They all thought about buying cheap grain seeds three years later.

.

"Haha! Choose Yi to take refuge..." Gu Tianya seemed to laugh at himself and seemed to have lost interest in continuing the auction.

But at this moment, someone suddenly stood up slowly and said in a deep voice: "I don't want to wait for three years, I want to buy one now. Just now, the Cheng family offered 25,000 people, so my Qin family will also offer 20,000 people."

Population: 5,000. Brother Gu, please sell me one share."

It’s Qin Qiong!

This loyal and honest man chose to support Gu Tianya.

Gu Tianya nodded happily, raised the gavel, looked at everyone, and asked: "Is anyone bidding?"

No one answered.

Gu Tianya asked again and said with a smile: "Does anyone want to compete?"

Still no one answered.

boom!

The gavel fell heavily.

The Qin family's deal is finally settled.

Up to this time, 7 of the 50 portions of grain seeds had been sold. Li Shimin had five portions, and the Cheng family and the Qin family each had one portion. The expected heated scene did not appear, and the more than 100 people present did not fight for it.

They all want to buy cheap grain seeds in three years, instead of making a commitment and buying directly from Gu Tianya now.

"It looks like this auction is a failure!" Gu Tianya didn't know whether it was because of disappointment or desolation in his heart. He slowly put the gavel down, as if he didn't want to continue the auction.

Suddenly, Changsun Wuji slowly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Changsun's family, buy two copies."

As he spoke, he looked at Gu Tianya and said solemnly: "In fact, buying one share is enough, because my eldest grandson's family only has more than 30,000 acres of land. Even if you only buy one share, you can guarantee that all the fields will be available in three years."

Grain seeds. But I owe you a karma, so I decided to buy two shares. The first share is for my own benefit, and the second share is to repay the karma. As for the price, it is calculated according to the prices of the Cheng family and the Qin family. Two shares of sweet potatoes.

Grain seeds, the Changsun family promises to increase the population by 50,000, how about that?"

Gu Tianya was a little surprised and looked at Changsun Wuji from afar.

However, Changsun Wuji looked indifferent, cupped his hands and said, "With a population of 50,000, it would be great to have a whole family like yours."

Gu Tianya hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded solemnly and said sincerely: "I really didn't expect that the third bidder was actually you!"

Changsun Wuji laughed and said pointedly: "We are relatives after all."

"good!"

Gu Tianya also laughed, exhaled slowly and said, "Just because of the word relative, I, Gu Tianya, am willing to be a family friend with your eldest grandson Wuji."

After he finished speaking, he stopped continuing the topic, looked back at the yard, and asked according to the bidding rules: "Changsun Wuji bids for the auction. Can any of you increase the bid?"

I asked twice in a row, but no one was willing to speak.

boom!

The gavel struck.

It wasn't until the deal was settled that someone stood up again and said with a smile: "Fang family, I want a share!"

He didn't say much, only five words, but everyone was a little surprised. They stared blankly at Fang Xuanling, who was known to have far-reaching plans, but saw that Fang Xuanling's face was indifferent, and he smiled and said as if to explain: "My son once became a disciple.

, I was once expelled from my sect, but due to an encounter last night, I returned to my sect again."

These words seemed to be long-winded, but everyone understood the meaning. It was simply that the Fang family wanted to show their closeness to Gu Tianya, and the reason why they bought the sweet potato seeds was to show their goodwill.

9 grain seeds have been sold.

After three years of planting, at least one million acres of seeds can be produced.

Because of this, the remaining 41 grain varieties become increasingly unattractive.

But no one expected that a lady in the venue suddenly stood up. Because she was a female, she was not qualified to bid on this occasion. Everyone saw her walk all the way to the area where the male guests were sitting, and then smiled slightly at someone.

He knelt down and performed a husband and wife ceremony, and whispered: "Husband, you open your mouth to bid, we don't care what other families plan, our Liu family must buy a share of grain..."

This lady is the wife of Liu Hongji, Duke of Kui.

Liu Hongji was obviously a little stunned, and subconsciously said: "Madam, we don't have any children in our family who need to be apprentices. Wouldn't it be better to buy it after three years? It would be too expensive to buy it now."

As he spoke, he realized that everyone was looking at him, even Gu Tianya and Li Shimin. The guy's heart suddenly suddenly went down, and he quickly lowered his head and said to his wife in a low voice: "Our family only has 20,000 acres of land. Add up to

There are only four Zhuangzi. And Zhuangzi is not that big, with only about 3,000 people living there. Madam, are you stupid? Do you think our family is capable of adding more than 20,000 people to Zhuangzi within three years?"

Although this guy is a mediocre talent, what he said is quite reasonable and well-founded. The Liu family's property only has four Zhuangzi, and the total number of people in the Zhuangzi is more than 3,000. This population base is too low.

It is impossible to increase the population by 20,000 in three years.

But Mrs. Liu was extremely determined and said solemnly: "The Cheng family has six villages, with a population of only about four thousand. The Qin family has six villages, and the population is not too large. Although the eldest grandson's family has ten villages, his family is directly

I bought two copies. If you really think about it, these companies will definitely not be able to fulfill their promise, but no matter how difficult it is for them, they still made the promise and bought grain seeds."

Liu Hongji was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "Promises must be fulfilled. I, Old Liu, don't want to do something I can't do."

Mrs. Liu's tone became more decisive and said: "Don't worry, husband, I will help you fulfill your promise even if I am exhausted, but now, you have to bid first. In this auction tonight, our Liu family must buy a share of grain seeds."

."

"Have you lost your mind and gone crazy?"

Lao Liu lowered his voice and scolded, and said angrily: "They have a special relationship with Gu Tianya, so they gritted their teeth and bought grain seeds. Our family has no children to be apprentices, and we have no relationship with Gu Tianya."

A special relationship. Even if you really want sweet potato seeds, can't we buy them in three years? At that time, you don't need to make commitments to develop the population, you only need to get money to buy sweet potatoes."

Mrs. Liu took a deep breath.

In full view of the public, she could not force her husband, but when she saw her sad smile, she suddenly knelt down and saluted again, and begged: "Husband, please. Go and bid for Mr. Gu immediately. Our Liu family must buy a share of grain."
