"So it's my nephew. I haven't seen you for a long time. My nephew is getting more and more handsome."
To say that a man is handsome, no matter in ancient times or in modern times, seems quite abrupt.
It's like when your relatives come to your house during the Chinese New Year, and they praise you as soon as they meet, wow, nephew, you are getting more and more handsome.
Who can bear this.
But Lu Lin felt that they were definitely sincere, because that man was really handsome, and people couldn't help but praise him.
How could there be such a good-looking man in the world?
"Who is he?" Lu Lin asked Xu Jingchang curiously.
Xu Jingchang glanced at the man, and said with some disgust, "You don't even know him?"
"He is the grandson of Shen Wansan, the richest man in Jiangnan, Shen Yuqing."
Shen Yuqing?
I haven't heard of it, but Shen Wansan is quite famous.
Legend has it that he has a cornucopia. Since he got the cornucopia, he has been doing business as if he had opened up. At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, he was already the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River.
At that time, the whole of China was in turmoil and wars were raging, but he was still able to stand tall, which showed that he was definitely an expert in business.
Later, Taizu built the city wall in Nanjing, and Shen Wansan generously donated money and was responsible for one-third of the task of Nanjing city wall, which can be described as a great contribution.
For this reason, Taizu specially appointed his two sons as officials and let them do business as officials in the Jiangnan area.
But later it was said that it was because Shen Wansan was so flirtatious and didn't know how to restrain himself, he actually rewarded the three armies in his own name before Taizu went out to fight, which aroused Taizu's dissatisfaction, thinking that he challenged the emperor's authority.
Then it was devalued to the frontier of Yunnan, and all the property of the Shen family was poured into the treasury.
So far, the Shen family has declined.
Xu Jingchang basically agreed with Lu Lin's statement, and then explained it to Shen Yuqing.
"After Shen Wansan was demoted, he died of illness in Yunnan within a few years. His two sons could not afford to support the Shen family, and the entire Shen family fell into ruin rapidly. It can be said that the family was ruined."
"But I didn't expect that it would be passed down to Shen Yuqing's generation, and he would rely on his own strength to help the Shen family that was devastated by the wind and rain again."
"Although the property is far inferior to his grandfather Shen Wansan, he is one of the best in Jiangnan. Moreover, Shen Yuqing is a talented person. He was already a candidate three years ago. Counting it, he will be able to participate in the palace examination this year."
"That's the candidate above Tanhualang."
"Tanhua?" Lu Lin was really scared, above Tanhua, in other words, above the top three.
I haven't taken the test yet, so I've already made a reservation?
Then this person is really powerful enough, no wonder the people below are so polite to him, they hug their thighs first.
After Shen Yuqing greeted the people around her one by one, she found her seat at the front and sat down, waiting for the results of the auction.
After a brief hustle and bustle, the auction re-entered the process.
"Boss Shen offered 5000 taels. I want all five. Is there anyone else bidding?"
Yu Qian looked around and asked.
At this moment, Su Bancheng raised his placard again: "I want all 4 taels, too."
The reason why Su Bancheng is called Su Bancheng is that his family property is worth half of the city, and he has plenty of money.
Moreover, the Su family and the Shen family were not good when Shen Wansan was alive, and the competition between the two businesses was fierce, it was like a battlefield.
But the Su family always missed a move, and was left far behind by Shen Wansan.
Later, if something happened to Shen Wansan, it would have been the Su family that fell, and Su Bancheng only rose to prominence at that time.
It can be said that without Shen Wansan's downfall, Su Bancheng would not be where he is today, so Su Bancheng is still very hostile to the Shen family, and the two families have almost no intersection.
Whatever he Shen Yuqing wanted, Su Bancheng would snatch it even if he lost money.
The scene was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder. People around consciously lowered their heads and drank tea, pretending not to see.
Immortals fight, and mortals stand aside.
Chapter 175 Damn, He Pretended
Su Bancheng made it clear that he wanted to rob Shen Yuqing, everyone could see this, but no one dared to say it.
And they are also happy to watch the two bosses of Suhang fight each other, to see who can have the last laugh.
It was a good show.
Although they are all famous characters, who doesn't like to watch a good show for free.
"Boss Shen, there is still an increase in the price. If there is no increase, the five ultimatums will be issued."
If you buy one ultimatum for 4 taels, five of them will be 20 taels. Although it is not a loss, it is not affordable for ordinary people.
Taking out 20 taels, isn't that the same as spreading money for fun? Except for the two of them, who would dare to play like this?
Facing Su Bancheng's provocation, Shen Yuqing still smiled like a spring breeze, without any sign of getting angry.
"Boss Su's family has a big business, and I dare not fight."
After speaking, he made a hand-crowned gesture, which meant that he didn't want it anymore.
This was beyond Su Bancheng's expectation, he was obviously stunned, why don't you just don't want it?
Didn't you just look like you were determined to win?Emotional Shen Yuqing is playing with herself?
Su Bancheng was about to speak, but Yu Qian made a final decision: "4 taels will be sold, and the ultimatum will belong to Boss Su."
As soon as the words fell, Shen Yuqing was the first to take the lead in applauding.
"Congratulations, Boss Su, for getting a big baby."
Shen Yuqing took the lead, and the others also applauded. The big guys kept clapping their hands at Su Bancheng to congratulate.
Whether Su Bancheng accepted it or not, his face turned red and white, and his teeth were almost gnawed in anger.
Seeing Shen Yuqing's calm expression, Su Bancheng finally understood that this Shen Yuqing had never thought of arguing for an ultimatum, otherwise he would not pay attention to a mere 4 taels.
He was tempting himself to bid, and then let himself lose a lot.
Obviously 3 taels can be won, but because Shen Yuqing stepped in, she lost 1 taels abruptly, and five cards equaled 5 taels.
