Prince Wang returned to his car and asked the manager from northern Jiangsu, "Uncle Zhang, we'll pay 100 taels?"

"At least one hundred and fifty taels to be safe." The manager gritted his teeth in frustration.

"Ah, so many?" Prince Wang was shocked.

"Mr. Zhao's words sound nice, but this 'call auction' method is very shady." The manager sighed and explained to the young master:

"Everyone thinks that the transaction will be completed at the lowest price anyway, so there is only benefit and no harm in bidding a high price."

"Yes." Before coming here, Prince Wang received instructions from his father to follow the steward on this trip. What he said in the pavilion just now was just a parrot's imitation. "Is there any harm in it?"

"The downside is that everyone will think like you." The manager sighed helplessly, "But I counted them and found that there are more than 300 companies here today. There are only 15,000 shares, and if each company wants 100 shares, half of them will not be able to buy. Moreover, how can 100 shares satisfy the appetite of the richest dozens of companies?"

"That's right." Prince Wang spread out his fan and said, "I see that many families would spend thirty or fifty thousand taels of silver as if it were just for fun."

"That's exactly the truth." The manager nodded and said, "These people want to buy at least 300 to 500 shares, or even more, so the number of companies that can buy stocks in the end is at most 60 to 70, or even less."

He sighed and said, "Only the 20% who bid the highest can buy the stock. Sir, what is the bid?"

"Then as long as you can afford it, you must pay the highest price." Prince Wang understood and took a breath, "This grandson is really sinister, forcing everyone to pay the highest price, and he also wants everyone to be grateful."

"Yes, without this scheme, they wouldn't have been able to turn a business worth a few hundred thousand taels into a business worth 10 or 200 million taels. The news would have leaked out long ago and someone would have snatched it away."

Although the manager was angry, he still admired Master Zhao very much in his heart.

I just felt that the other party's business tactics were something I had never seen in my life, and they deserved to make a fortune.

"Fortunately, the matter of the earth dragon's reversal has not been determined yet, and each family still has some concerns. We offer 150 taels, which should be no problem." 150 taels is also the maximum authorization given to him by President Wang. "Even if the transaction ends up at this price, we will still make a profit."

Before he finished speaking, a horseman rushed into Diaoyutai, and the rider on the horse shouted loudly:

"We rushed to Beijing from Shaanxi Province, which is 800 miles away. On the morning of April 6, there was an earthquake in Chang'an, Fengxiang and five other prefectures. The sound was like thunder, and dust covered the sky. No house in the city was intact, and thousands of houses collapsed!"

The knight passed by the two men and continued to announce loudly to everyone: "Fortunately, Mr. Zhao predicted in advance that the casualties of people and animals were minor..."

"Is it true?" Prince Wang was so shocked that he dropped his fan on the ground. "Then, Sun... Prince Zhao's science, can it really predict earthquakes? I guess I have to learn from him later."

"Sir, this is not the time to lament about this." The manager said dejectedly, "The last factor that restricted the share price of Xishan Coal Industry no longer exists."

His throat trembled a few times as he spoke, and he said with difficulty: "One hundred and fifty taels, it's not safe anymore..."

~~

In the waterside pavilion where he stayed last time, Zhao Hao was preparing to take a nap while listening to music.

Suddenly he heard shouting outside, so he sat up and asked, "Is it news of an earthquake?"

After getting Cai Ming's affirmative answer, Zhao Hao jumped up from the bed and jumped for joy.

He had been waiting for this news for the whole morning and thought it would be delayed.

Ma Xianglan, who was playing the piano for him, was stunned.

Naturally, I could no longer play the originally gentle and soothing "Sheng Sheng Man".

"Sir, is the earthquake worth being happy about?" Ma Xianglan said speechlessly.

"Haven't you heard? Thousands of houses were destroyed, but the casualties were minimal." Young Master Zhao said with compassion, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. This time, I have built a tower to heaven."

"Oh." Ma Xianglan knew that was not the case, but she nodded and said, "The young master has indeed done a great deed."

"Haha, yes, yes, I will keep trying." Zhao Hao happily requested a song: "Sister Xianglan, play 'Here Comes the God of Wealth' to celebrate..."

Ma Xianglan twitched her lips twice. What the hell is "Here comes the God of Wealth"?

"It's 'The God of Wealth is here, the God of Wealth is here, good intentions will be rewarded; the myth of wealth, the myth of wealth, make money the right way'..." Zhao Hao sang it to her seriously.

Ma Xianglan was stunned when she heard this, wondering what dialect the young master was singing in?

~~

The bidding in the afternoon was still held at Shuizhu, and each company put the addressed envelope into the wooden box in turn.

After the bidding was over, Fatty Tang, Fatty Sun, Guo Da and Ji Sizheng began counting on the spot.

Two fat guys were responsible for opening the envelopes.

In front of all the distinguished guests, they opened more than 300 envelopes and took out the quotations inside.

Then stick each quotation on a small rectangular wooden sign.

There is a magnet behind the wooden sign, which can be stuck to the large iron plate painted white.

After each of them finished sticking a piece, Guo handed it to Ji Sizheng, who then stuck them on the whiteboard in order according to the quoted amount.

The VIPs held their breath and nervously watched the ever-increasing amount on the whiteboard.

The number on the top block kept being refreshed, and there was an outrageous offer of one thousand shares at one thousand taels per share...

Of course, this is just the buyer showing his determination to win - no matter how much the transaction costs in the end, I must get the share I want!

Although there were only numbers but no names on the wooden signs, it was enough to make everyone guess, who is this tycoon who would eat so much at once?

Then, another person offered 900 taels to buy 1,500 shares, and another 800 taels to buy 1,000 shares...

Everyone was so scared that their faces turned pale.

Including the top tycoons who made the offer, they actually couldn't come up with that much money at once. They quoted a high price just for insurance.

Fortunately, Beijing is not the southeast, and there are only a few millionaires.

In the end, only seven or eight bids exceeded five hundred taels.

But in the range of three to four hundred taels, there are also many bids for large tickets.

Young Master Wang looked nervous and thought that what Manager Zhang said was right. Judging from the situation, he could not finish one hundred and fifty taels.

It took about an hour to sort and check all the quotations.

As a result, there was not a single bid lower than one hundred taels...

The son of Huo Butang was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that his offer was the lowest price.

What was even more unexpected to him was that there was only one hundred taels.

Didn’t we agree that no one is allowed to change, and whoever changes will be a puppy?

He glared at his two good friends with extremely angry eyes.

Prince Wang and Prince Mao just stared at the wooden sign above their heads, counting silently, without even looking at him.

Brotherhood over wine and meat is such a reality.

When the sixty-fifth wooden sign was counted, a total of 14,950 shares had been accumulated.

Everyone held their breath and looked at the sixty-sixth wooden sign.

All I saw was "One hundred and ninety taels per share, looking to buy 200 shares"!

Therefore, the final transaction price was one hundred and ninety taels per share!
