An Liu, the young and incompetent man, drove the mule cart back in anger, "If you don't want it, I won't sell it to you!"
The old Huo family was dumbfounded. They had originally thought that if they stretched the price a little, the price would go down!
Who would have thought that the silly boy wouldn't play by the rules.
When An Liu came back, the secret guards were still unwilling to do their job, especially An Shi. They really regretted giving this job to that stupid boy An Liu.
Where can you find a business where you can start from 40 taels, sell it for 1,000 taels, and make a profit of 960 taels? This kind of work doesn't come around every day.
An Er was chewing a chicken leg happily while looking at his brothers who were gritting their teeth in worry.
Give them some advice, "Don't worry, go ask the Madam and the Master for advice, they are smart and will definitely have a plan."
An Yi grabbed the extra chicken leg from An Er and said, "I didn't realize it, brother, you have finally figured it out."
An Er glared at his brother, "Then why are you trying to steal my chicken leg?"
An finished a large chicken drumstick in two bites, "Brother, I'm doing this for your own good. I'm afraid you'll eat too much and get too fat, and then you won't be able to fly anymore."
An Shi stopped them and said, "Stop arguing and get down to business first. I feel bad if I can't make the money."
Everyone stopped fighting and went together to find their leader.
Leng Yue had been staring at them for a long time, and she knew what was going on without them saying anything.
Huo Jingxuan scolded the secret guards, "If you can't hold your breath, let's just wait. When we set off, the old Huo family will know that they are anxious. If they don't want to chase the car anymore, they will be willing to spend money."
Leng Yue suddenly thought of something, "Why don't the Huo family go to the city and buy a carriage? We all have cars, but they don't. We finally got to the city, but they don't buy one?"
An Liu interrupted and said, "Madam, when I was buying a mule cart just now, I saw people from the Huo family wandering around the horse market. I don't know why they didn't buy it in the end."
An Er quickly squeezed into the crowd, "I know this, it was Wang Tengfei who told them that it would be a waste of money if they bought the car, and all of it would be confiscated. They have money so they can do whatever they want, and it just so happens that he wants to change the car!"
"Wang Tengfei, is this indirectly helping us?" Leng Yue asked.
Huo Jingxuan thought for a moment and said, "It's not entirely to help us. People in exile can't ride in a car, and if they buy one, it will be confiscated.
Another thing is that Wang Tengfei is probably afraid that the old Huo family will make all their money and they will have nothing to earn. After all, they can only make a little money from the old Huo family now. "
When Leng Yue heard this, it seemed to be true. Suddenly, she had an idea and signaled the secret guards to come over. "Just keep calm and wait for the official to come back. Before we set off, the people from the old Huo family will definitely come to you to buy a car.
When the time comes, you can take advantage of the fact that the second and third rooms are not compatible and hold an auction. The highest bidder wins. The starting price is 1,100 taels, and you can increase it by 100 taels each time. The more money you can make, the better."
Anshi was happy. According to this method, even if the starting price was sold off, they could still earn one hundred taels more than originally planned.
As long as he could make money, he was the first to agree, and he didn't forget to flatter Leng Yue, "Madam is wise!"
At this time, An San raised a question, "Madam, what if they don't rush to bid?
Or should the two families jointly buy the mule cart?"
Leng Yue smiled and asked An Liu to answer An San's question.
An Liu suddenly understood why his wife had emphasized to him before he set off that he should buy a small carriage of the worst quality.
He thought the lady was trying to take advantage of him, but it turned out she was waiting for them here!
"My wife asked me to buy the smallest carriage with the thinnest wood, the kind that a small family can barely sit in without stretching their legs.
The second branch of the old Huo family has three fat girls, and they can’t squeeze the two families apart even if they die of exhaustion.”
The secret guards all gave Leng Yue a thumbs up, "Madam is smart."
As expected, not long after Wang Tengfei returned, the people of the old Huo family could no longer sit still and came to Anliu to buy cars.
When they heard An Liu saying that the two families were bidding, with each bid increasing by one hundred taels, the highest bidder would win, and that the starting price was one thousand one hundred taels, the people from the second and third houses cursed An Liu.
"Why don't you go and rob? Are you crazy because of poverty? Haven't you ever seen money?"
An Liu was not annoyed, "Whatever you say, if you want to buy it, it's this price. If you don't want to buy it, get out of here and don't waste my time."
The people of the old Huo family became discouraged and lost their previous arrogance.
"I'll buy it. One thousand and one hundred taels is one thousand and one hundred taels. I have money." The first to speak was Zhao from the third house.
After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Lin straightened her back and said, "Yes, we have money, we bought the car."
Liu pushed Lin aside and said, "Go away. The elders are here, so you have no right to speak."
She was just relying on her large figure to show off!
Lin took several steps back, just trying to steady herself, then suddenly became furious, rushed over, grabbed Liu's hair and started scratching her face.
"Do you think you are still in the Huo Mansion in the capital? You can be so arrogant, but now you are exiled. Who is nobler than who? You still dare to show off your elder status to me? My father-in-law and mother-in-law are here. Do you think it's your turn to show off?"
The two old women were arguing and rolled into a ball in an instant.
Leng Yue took the lead and led everyone to watch the fun.
Finally, the men of the Huo family could no longer save face, so they grabbed their family members and dragged them away.
At this time, Liu and Lin were rolling like donkeys, their hair was like a bird's nest, their faces were rubbed with shredded carrots, and bloodstains were all over their hands, faces and necks.
Those who were watching the excitement, both men and women, gasped, especially the Qi, Liu and Sun families. They used to be wealthy and powerful families, and the women usually spoke softly. They had never seen a fight between shrews from the street!
Now they finally opened their eyes, especially women, who were scared when they saw it. Their faces were scratched like that. The weather is hot now, and there is a lack of medical care and medicine on the road, so they will definitely be left with scars.
Disguised means disfigurement!
They all stepped back, trying to stay away from the shrew from the old Huo family. If she went crazy again and affected them, their lives would be ruined.
Standing at the shaft of the carriage, An Liu, who was in charge of this auction, was also stunned by the outrageous actions of Liu and Lin.
How come they started fighting without any agreement? But it was really exciting, we will continue next time.
Then when they finished, An Liu clapped his hands and said, "Since we're done, let's continue the auction. Just now, the third room offered 1,100 taels. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price now?
If not, after three attempts, the deal will be done, and the car will belong to the third branch of the Huo family."
Huo Dabao and Huo Erbao from the second room both blamed their mother for asking her to buy a car, so why were they fighting?
"You are so useless!" After scolding Liu, he went straight to ask Huo Dagang for help.
"Dad, we also want to ride in the car. We don't want to run after the car. We really can't run anymore. If we keep running like this, you will have no son."
That won't work. Huo Dabao and Huo Erbao don't have any children yet. If anything happens to them, his bloodline will be cut off.
