Otherworld Management Manual

Last pound, out of print!

Hearing Blanche's introduction, all the businessmen's eyes turned red.

If there is no chance, they will feel pity and envy.

But now there is still an opportunity in front of them. They know that if they don't grasp it, they will regret it!

"The starting price for the last catty of refined salt—ten gold coins!"

Blanche's somewhat excited voice sounded again, and before she could finish speaking, the scene was filled with excitement.

"One hundred and fifty gold coins!"

The first bid went directly to the previous highest transaction price, but this time it didn't scare anyone away.

"One hundred and sixty gold coins!"

"One hundred and seventy gold coins!"

"One hundred and seventy-five gold coins!"

"One hundred and eighty-five gold coins!"

"..."

Most of the businessmen were red-eyed and refused to budge.

A drop of cold sweat oozed from Brown's forehead. He was glad that he had struck early, otherwise he would be the one with the blushing face and the thick neck.

"Two hundred gold coins!"

As soon as the high price of two hundred gold coins was called out, the merchants at the scene calmed down a lot.

But that doesn't stop them from raising prices!

"Two hundred and ten gold coins!"

"Two hundred and twenty gold coins!"

"Two hundred and twenty-five gold coins!"

"..."

The frequency of price increases is getting slower and slower, and the rate of price increases is getting smaller and smaller.

Zhang Feng, who was watching the play on the side, knew that this should be reaching their limit.

In the end, the price was set at two hundred and forty gold coins.

"Two hundred and forty gold coins once"

"Two hundred and forty gold coins twice"

"Two hundred and forty gold coins three times"

Boom!

"make a deal!"

With Blanche's small wooden hammer falling, the auction for the third piece of refined salt finally came to an end.

Regardless of whether they won the auction or not, these merchants were sweating all over, it was so exciting!

Even for some businessmen, it is the first time that they spend money so purely, and this feeling is not usually felt.

"Congratulations to Mr. Terry, you bid for the last catty of refined salt at a price of 240 gold coins!"

Crack, clap, clap!

This time without Zhang Feng taking the lead, the businessmen themselves began to applaud.

Terry was a thin and thin cloth merchant, and he was one of the few merchants who rushed over from other cities after hearing the message from his subordinates.

Terry's face turned red. After he handed over the gold coins and received the "last catty" of refined salt, he finally showed a satisfied smile.

Zhang Feng looked at him, and Zhang Feng also smiled very satisfied. Only three catties of salt had already been sold for 490 gold coins!

According to Zhang Feng's estimation of the current prices, about 600 to 700 gold coins can bring the current Hongye City back to life. In other words, just this small auction can earn back the food consumed by Hongye City for half a year. !

Although Zhang Feng feels that if the news of the auction is allowed to ferment for another ten days and a half months, the effect will definitely be better, but it is not necessary, this time is just a test of the water, and earning enough food for Hongye City is only a secondary purpose , and the main purpose is to start the reputation of Hongye City!

Compared with gold coins, Zhang Feng needs talents more!

"All the refined salt has been sold. Congratulations again to Lord Warren, Lord Brown and Lord Terry!"

Seeing that the excitement of the crowd had almost eased, Blanche immediately spoke again.

Crack, clap, clap!

"But gentlemen who haven't harvested yet, don't be disappointed, because the items behind us are even more precious and rare!"

Hearing that there were still auction items, and they were even rarer, the merchants were all attracted. Brown couldn't believe it. He thought the auction was over after the three catties of refined salt were sold.

I didn't expect it to exist!

And also said that it is more precious and rare, true or false?

"Then, we will present the fourth auction item!"

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Blanche roared excitedly.

Looking at the tray brought up again, everyone looked forward to it.

Blanche didn't hold back, and directly lifted the red cloth.

"This……"

Looking at the same small bowl on the tray, and the same white crystals in the small bowl, everyone was a little confused, isn't it the last catty of refined salt that was agreed, why is there still?

"Everyone, this is not refined salt!"

Blanche gave a mysterious smile, and then the hostesses walked off the stage with the tray in front of many businessmen.

Only then did they realize that the contents of the bowl this time were different from the refined salt before.

Terry took out the refined salt he had just photographed for comparison, and found that the particles of the refined salt were smaller, and this thing was slightly larger.

"Everyone can taste it before deciding whether to participate in the auction."

There are also a dozen small wooden spoons on the tray, the shallow and small ones.

All the businessmen consciously took a spoon each, and stared at the mysterious white crystal curiously, even the hostess who was close at hand didn't bother to appreciate it.

"Huh? This!"

Warren was the first to taste it, and as soon as he took it, his expression changed drastically, as if he had eaten something extraordinary.

Brown was not polite either, and just took a spoonful.

"Sugar! It's sugar!"

Brown's eyes lit up.

His words made other businessmen impatient.

"Oh my god, it's so sweet!"

"Wow! Extremely sweet and pure!"

"It's really sugar, but isn't sugar black..."

"Salt can be made so delicate, and sugar can be made like this, it's not impossible."

Seeing that everyone had a sip, Blanche hurriedly signaled Miss Manners to come back, every sip was a gold coin!

"Yes, this is sugar. We call it 'white sugar'. I believe I don't need to say much about sugar. Everyone is a businessman and must know more than me, but I dare say that this white sugar , you must have never seen it before!"

Blanche's voice was firm and full of confidence.

"Indeed, the sugar in our Kingdom of Buck is imported from far away places. They are all the kind of black cone sugar. Although it has a sweet taste, it also has a bitter and astringent taste..."

"I have been a businessman for so many years, and I have never seen such white sugar!"

"Black cone sugar is already very expensive, this fine white granulated sugar..."

"Then, the starting price for half a catty of white sugar is one hundred gold coins! By the way, this white sugar is only half a catty!"

Blanche's passionate voice sounded again.

The starting price for white sugar this time was directly 100 gold coins, and the final transaction price for the first refined salt was only 100 gold coins!

But hearing such a high starting price, the merchants present were not at all surprised. Sugar is a luxury item, and white sugar is even more of a luxury item. This starting price is reasonable.

"Two hundred gold coins!"

Varun was the first to bid.

"Two hundred and fifty gold coins!"

Terry was not to be outdone. Although he had just spent two hundred and forty gold coins for a catty of refined salt, he still wanted to fight for the half catty of white sugar.

"Two hundred and eighty gold coins!"

"..."

"Three hundred and twenty gold coins!"

Brown is also in the fray, and a new battle is about to start.

Zhang Feng was watching these merchants from the side, looking at their faces when they asked for prices, Zhang Feng was assessing how many gold coins they had and how much he needed to take out.
