After crossing, I spoil my husband

After Fu Mingyou moved all the things in, he took out all the things he had prepared.

Since it is an auction, it must have the feeling of an auction. He directly applied the modern auction scene and made the environment very good, so that the people who come to the auction will feel better.

Due to very limited conditions, the auction venue only provided a tea table, and there was a certain distance between everyone who came, but it allowed them to see each other.

"Xiao Fu, thank you for your hard work."

Cen Shangshu came out of the palace, saw that Fu Mingyou was almost ready, couldn't help but smiled, patted him on the shoulder and said.

Fu Mingyou smiled and said, "Master Cen, you are too polite, this is what I should do."

This is his job to settle down, although it is a bit exaggerated, but at least he has to do something to be an official.

Master Cen smiled, then looked at the things prepared aside, and smiled: "When will the auction start?"

Fu Mingyou smiled and said: "The official time is at [-]:[-]pm. At that time, everyone has rested and is in good spirits. Maybe they are more willing to spend money."

Hearing this, Cen Shangshu could not help but smile.

A group of people ate here at noon, and then one after another, after the end of time, many businessmen came over.

The gates of Yue Lai Ke are guarded. Today Yue Lai Ke does not do business, so the guards at the door are guards. They are responsible for checking the authenticity of the invitations. Fu Mingyou has already told them the points to pay attention to in the invitations. .

Because he was worried that someone would fake the invitation, Fu Mingyou was cautious when making the invitation, and drew a small love heart with cinnabar on the seal, and the heart could not be seen unless you looked carefully. from.

At this time, Mu Shangshu and Cen Shangshu were accompanying His Majesty in a hidden place behind, and Fu Mingyou and Mr. Qian from the household department presided over the auction together.

There were more and more people, Fu Mingyou and Mr. Qian did not appear all at once, but waited until they were all there.

Many of the merchants who came today are well-known merchants in the Li country, and some of them had acquaintances before and had business contacts.

"Boss Chen, it's been a long time. I'm here to participate in this auction today."

"Hey, Boss Mu, do you still have that glass lamp from before?"

"Boss Zeng, I've heard of your name for a long time."

"I didn't expect Boss Zheng to be here."

"I haven't seen Boss Zhang for three years. You still look good."

Many of them are acquaintances. They include well-known large rice and grain households in Li country, large timber merchants all over the state capitals, cloth owners who are deeply loved by the people and big families, and many of them are among the top bosses in Li country.

When it was almost time, Fu Mingyou looked at the people at the side, smiled, and said, "Master Qian, let's go, this way please."

Mr. Qian stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "Today I am honored to witness a unique auction, thanks to Xiao Fu, let's go."

The two walked directly towards the auction site.

When they came out, the people present couldn't help being silent for a moment, then stood up immediately, and waved their hands to say hello.

Although Fu Mingyou is only a small official of the Ministry of Household Affairs, he cannot offend these businessmen.

"Hello bosses, I'm Fu Mingyou, the person who sent invitations to you." Fu Mingyou looked at everyone and smiled, and then introduced the people beside him: "This is Mr. Qian, the left servant of the Ministry of Finance. , today the two of us will host this auction."

Looking at the crowd, Fu Mingyou smiled and said softly.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, they didn't expect that it was such a young junior who sent them invitations, but they also didn't expect that the left servant of the household department would appear here.

"Hello, two adults."

"It's really scary for young people."

Everyone bowed their hands to say hello, and said to the two with a smile.

Mr. Qian cupped his hands towards the crowd, smiled, and said, "Hi, bosses. Thank you for coming to this auction. Mr. Fu will introduce the details of this auction."

When he came here before, Mr. Qian had already thought about it, and he just counted how much silver he had, and left the rest to Fu Mingyou directly.

Fu Mingyou smiled, looked at the crowd, stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, please sit down. Next, I will introduce to you the main content of this auction."

Everyone nodded, and immediately found a suitable place to sit down.

Mu Xingzhou was also among the crowd, but he didn't tell everyone that he knew Fu Mingyou, and he didn't take the initiative to talk to Fu Mingyou during the whole process, so as to avoid suspicion.

"The auction this time mainly has two aspects." Fu Mingyou took out the things he made, "on the one hand, it is used to auction His Majesty's calligraphy and collections, and on the other hand, it is to auction some official customs. right to use."

That's right, it's just the right to use, Fu Mingyou is not stupid, he can clearly distinguish the right to use and ownership, the official way can't be given to them, it can only be used by them, and to use this right, you need to buy it with money.

Some people didn't understand it very well, and said directly: "Master Fu, I actually don't quite understand what the right to use means?"

Not only did he not understand, many people present did not understand.

Fu Mingyou smiled, and then took out the small sand table he made: "I think everyone here knows that the official roads of our Li country are relatively rough, and next, I will rebuild them between the capital and various state capitals." A new official road, at the same time, the road from Li country to other countries, that is, these three roads, are called trade roads."

"Over the past few years, our Li country has sold a lot of things to other countries. At this time, there will be many merchants. If anyone auctions the right to use the road from Li country to other countries, then the use of this road The right is yours. When selling things between countries, you can ask the merchants to pay a certain toll. At the same time, you can also set up your own shops nearby to increase the possibility of selling things to other countries. sex, and..."

Fu Ming Youzai explained the right to use carefully, which not only includes allowing other merchants to pay tolls, but also building inns and other things nearby. Anyway, it will not lose money.

After hearing what Fu Mingyou said, everyone fell into silence. They are businessmen, of course they know what it means.

Fu Mingyou smiled, and then said: "Of course, after the road section is auctioned, you can pay a [-]% reduction in the commercial tax that will be implemented soon."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other in surprise, as if they didn't understand, why should taxes be collected?

Seeing everyone's appearance, Fu Mingyou took two sips of tea leisurely, and said, "From next year, Li Guo will issue a merchant tax, and each merchant needs to pay a tax no less than [-]% of the profit."

The businessman is too rich. Before Fu Mingyou knew that the businessmen in Li country did not pay taxes, he was very surprised, and then immediately told Mu Shangshu about the business tax.

Mu Shangshu was also very surprised by Fu Mingyou's idea, but after Fu Mingyou settled the accounts, he immediately understood that the commercial tax must be implemented. They used to say that the fashion of workers and peasants, and the status of merchants was the lowest, but they forgot that they were more important than most of them. The common people are rich.

All the bosses here, after hearing Fu Mingyou's words, immediately began to cry poorly.

"Oh, Mr. Fu, you don't know something. We businessmen really don't have much money. If we pay taxes, the whole family will suffer from northwest wind."

"Yes, Mr. Fu, although we seem to be very rich, we also have a lot of people who need to eat, and the monthly payment alone is a lot of money every year."

As soon as they heard that they had to pay taxes, the people present immediately cried poor.

Fu Mingyou didn't open his mouth, he just listened to what everyone said, and when everyone said something about the same, he took a leisurely look at them.

Fu Mingyou smiled, and curled his lips: "Do you think I don't know how to be a businessman? Take the famous food as the sky in the capital as an example. A string of ingredients costs one penny, a string of meat dishes costs two pennies, and a piece of food is worth a penny. A soup pot costs ten renminbi, and a serving of jelly noodles costs two renminbi. However, one penny can buy a catty of cabbage, and a catty of pork can be skewered forty skewers... In this way, if Shiweitian only sells 150 skewers of vegetarian vegetables a day, Five hundred strings of meat dishes, one hundred soup pots, and fifty jelly noodles, the benefits of which, after deducting the cost and rent, cost a thousand yuan a day, not to mention that Shiweitian sells thousands of skewers a day. The minimum profit is five taels a day, 800 taels a month, and [-] taels a year."

"Do I need to give examples of things like rice noodles, oil, wood, cloth and lamps? The profits of these things are much more than food for the sky."

After listening to the other party's settlement, everyone was silent, and even more silent was His Majesty and others sitting in a hidden corner. None of them thought that this business would be so rich. Then these businessmen in front of them are all super rich ?

"Master Fu, you just said that if we auction the road section, we can reduce the commercial tax by [-]%?"

Mu Xingzhou quickly grasped the key point of Fu Mingyou's words and asked directly.

Fu Mingyou smiled and said, "Yes, it can be reduced."

Hearing this, everyone's hearts couldn't help but become even hotter.

If it can be reduced, then they must take it. After all, with their minds, as long as it is taken, it must be profitable.

"Master Fu, you didn't say just now that the usage right is for several years."

A seemingly shrewd boss quickly caught the loophole in Fu Mingyou's words.

Fu Mingyou smiled and said, "Ten years."

This time is not long or short, anyway, it is enough for them to get their capital back, and even earn some more.

After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought. Some people think that if they don’t buy it, it’s a big deal to pay taxes. Not 10,000+ taels.

"Does anyone have any questions? If not, then we're officially on the agenda for the auction."

Fu Mingyou looked at the crowd and smiled, then asked softly.

Everyone shook their heads, indicating that there was nothing more to ask.

Fu Mingyou said everything he wanted to say before, and also revealed a big news to them.

Mr. Qian has already been sitting on the sidelines, and it will be related to the matter of money in a while, how can he not be serious.

Fu Mingyou clapped his hands, and a guard took out the first auction item.

"This is drawn and written by His Majesty himself, and it is also the only calligraphy drawn by His Majesty in all our auction items. The starting price of this picture of mountains and horses is 1000 yuan, and the price increase is no less than [-] taels each time."

Fu Mingyou looked at the crowd and said softly.

The only painting was drawn by His Majesty himself. Just these two sentences are enough to make the merchants present excited.

As businessmen, they certainly know that it is not easy to be a businessman. Even if they have money, when it comes to rights, they are still inferior to those rich and powerful.

"One hundred thousand and one thousand taels."

"One hundred thousand and one thousand taels."

……

"13."

"13 taels."

……

"30 taels."

This seems to be a very high number. Fu Mingyou looked at the crowd and smiled: "30 taels, is there anyone else?"

No one at the scene seemed to continue to increase the price. Fu Mingyou smiled and said, "One, two, three. Congratulations, Boss Chen, for getting this item."

Boss Chen nodded happily, and said, "Thank you, thank you, everyone, please accept."

Your Majesty who was inside was very surprised to know that a painting he had drawn at random was sold for 30 taels.

"Mu Shangshu, do you think I should draw a picture every day, so that the treasury will have money."

His Majesty took a sip of water and said leisurely.

This Fu Mingyou is really a talent. Fortunately, he didn't reject the other party before, otherwise he would lose a lot of wealth.

Mu Shangshu glanced at his Majesty, and said, "Your Majesty, if there are too many, it will be worthless."

As the saying goes, what is rare is the most valuable, because since His Majesty ascended the throne, no calligraphy has ever been passed on to the outside world. Of course, it is very rare and precious to everyone.

His Majesty ate a mouthful of pastry to suppress his shock: "I don't know how much money will enter the treasury today."

Cen Shangshu on the side smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I estimate that there are not five million taels, but three million."

"Cough, cough, cough." His Majesty choked on eating the pastry, and the father-in-law behind him cried out worriedly.

The place where His Majesty and others are sitting is not far from the crowd, so the father-in-law's "Your Majesty" was heard by people outside.

Mu Shangshu and the others were also frightened, and immediately surrounded His Majesty. His Majesty waved his hand and took a few sips of water to feel better.

Fu Mingyou paused, coughed in embarrassment, looked over there, and then at the two bright people, he could only explain: "There are Your Majesty, Mu Shangshu, and Cen Shangshu inside. One auction is also quite concerned.”

Hearing this, those who didn't take pictures of His Majesty's calligraphy felt extremely regretful. They didn't expect His Majesty to come too. I knew they would follow suit to bid again. I can still see His Majesty.

And Boss Chen was very happy. Sure enough, he has a good eye. Now His Majesty knows that the calligraphy and paintings of the other party were taken by Boss Chen. Rounding up, he can be regarded as seeing His Majesty's holy face.
