Daming: In the beginning, he mistakenly regarded Emperor Yongle as his own father

But the moment he pulled out the knife, a cold light shot straight into his eyes, making him almost unable to open them.

Not only was the knife not broken, but there was no trace of damage at all, and the edge of the knife was not even curled.

Yuan Daoyi stared at the knife in his hand in disbelief, opened his mouth wide and forgot to close it.

Such a hard stone, it cut down, there is nothing wrong?

Good knife.

A peerless knife.

Yuan Daoyi touched the unique cold feeling of the blade, and he couldn't put it down for a long time.

"I want this knife, please make a price."

Yu Qian smiled: "It's not expensive, 5000 taels."

When everyone heard this, they immediately gasped.

5000 taels, 5000 taels for a knife?

This is too expensive, who is so stupid, to spend 5000 taels to buy such a broken knife, you know, 5000 taels are enough for them to buy hundreds of knives.

But Yuan Daoyi didn't say a word, and readily agreed: "Okay, I will order someone to go back and get the money immediately."

"what?"

"Just bought it?"

"5000 taels, don't you even think about it?"

"Are the Japanese people stupid or rich?"

Everyone was stunned by Yuan Daoyi's mysterious operation, and they couldn't understand why he took such a big advantage.

But only Yuan Daoyi knows how precious this sword is, and it is rare in a thousand years. It is estimated that only the legendary sword made of black iron can be compared with it.

People who don't love knives will not understand their feelings.

This knife was originally prepared for Yuan Daoyi, so no one would snatch it from him, and it was a quick deal of 5000 taels.

"What is your knife made of? It cuts iron like mud. It's sharp and hard." Xu Jingchang couldn't help being curious.

Lu Lin smiled and didn't answer him.

Anyway, he didn’t understand it. It was an alloy made of chromium, the hardest metal in the world, called chrome alloy for short.

The second exhibit is auctioned off.

Next came the third exhibit, which was the highlight of the night.

"The third exhibit is the general ultimatum and trade certificate for the entire Ming Dynasty."

As soon as the exhibits came out, all the merchants present stood up with a "boom".

Ultimatums and trade certificates?

Is this still up for auction?

Anyone who is a merchant knows how important these two things are to a merchant.

Without trade certificates, their firms cannot be opened and their goods cannot be sold.

As for the ultimatum, it is necessary for goods to pass through various city gates when transporting goods. If there is no such thing, it will be regarded as smuggling, and if you catch it, you will have to chop off your toes.

Seeing their reaction, Lu Lin knew that this ultimatum and trade certificate would definitely make a lot of money.

Not only the merchants were stunned, even Xu Jingchang was frightened, he quickly pulled him and asked in a low voice: "Are you crazy, do you know what this is, can it be auctioned casually?"

"Where did you get it, shouldn't it be fake?"

For general ultimatums and trade certificates, merchants need to go to the local government to apply for issuance, but the process is quite troublesome.

First of all, after the businessman has determined the goods he wants to deliver and the route for delivering the goods, he must apply to the local township official.

Provide the specific details of the goods and the route to the township officials.

The township officials also need to verify the goods and routes, as well as the number of travelers, the identity of the travelers, whether they are good citizens, the tax status of the goods, and so on.

The township official has confirmed it here, and he still needs to apply for approval as a government.

When the government receives the application from the township official, it has to verify it again, and the ultimatum will not be issued until it is confirmed to be correct.

Anyway, after a set of procedures, it can take as little as ten days and a half month, and as long as a year and a half.

For businessmen, this is both cumbersome and time-consuming.

Moreover, the ultimatum issued by merchants is different from the ultimatum issued by ordinary people, because their goods and travel routes are different every time, so every time they go out, they have to apply again.

If you think about it, you will know how delayed things are.

If there is a general ultimatum that can be used directly no matter where you go, it will be much easier.

For businessmen, timing is very important. Some goods are obviously the best sellers in summer, but because of the delay in the ultimatum, it will be winter when they come back. This business can't be done.

"This ultimatum can't be fake, can it?"

Some people questioned that they have not heard of an ultimatum that is common throughout the Ming Dynasty.

"Don't worry, everyone, my county magistrate never falsifies, and the ultimatum was issued by the King of Han himself, and there is also the personal seal of the King of Han on it, so there will be absolutely no fakes."

"Issued by the King of Han?"

"Can it really work?"

"It should be possible, the King of Han is now the supervisor of the country."

"Of course, this ultimatum is not used casually." Yu Qian interrupted them and explained to them.

"This ultimatum can only give you priority approval rights, instead of allowing you to directly pass the customs. The goods that should be approved still need to be approved, and falsification is absolutely not allowed."

"That is to say, with this ultimatum, approval is still required, but the time is shortened." Someone asked.

Yu Qian nodded: "Yes, it's just shortened the time. You don't need to go to the township official to apply, you can go directly to the local government for review, and you have priority review."

"How much time can be shortened?" This is the question they are most concerned about.

Yu Qian raised two fingers: "Two days."
