Chapter 61 Both Rejects!
"Thirty-two thousand taels!"
Merced opened his mouth.
"Thirty-five thousand taels!"
Zhao Fengchen said without hesitation.
"Thirty-seven thousand taels!"
Merced gritted his teeth. The wealth of merchants in the Western Regions is well-known in the Middle-earth Shenzhou. But more than 30,000 taels of gold is also a huge number for Merced.
Merced doesn't understand why this guy who doesn't know his identity spends so much money to fight for a sword with himself.
"Forty thousand taels!"
Zhao Fengchen's answer was decisive, as if what he said was not the heavy gold of 40,000 taels, but just a number.
The Zhao family is not bad for money!
In any case, it is impossible for Zhao Fengchen to lose his momentum in front of a merchant from the Western Regions. What's more, the position of the commander of the Imperial Army is by no means measurable by any money.
The number of commanders in the Imperial Army is limited, and this opportunity does not come every time. Moreover, once you are promoted to the commander of the forbidden army, it is equivalent to opening the door to promotion. There will be more opportunities in the future, you will be exposed to more exercises and training resources, and you will be able to be promoted to a higher position.
These are not comparable to ordinary generals.
More importantly, he couldn't lose to Huang Xiaotian no matter what!
"Forty-one thousand taels!"
Merced gritted his teeth, obviously powerless.
"No need to fight! I won't sell it to you!"
Just when Zhao Fengchen was about to fight, Wang Chong suddenly turned his head and said something that shocked the two of them and was unexpected.
As soon as the voice fell, the originally noisy crowd suddenly fell silent. All eyes fell on Wang Chong.
"why?!"
The two were stunned, and they blurted out together.
Forty thousand taels of gold, such a high price, has already doubled the price quoted by Wang Chong. Ordinary people are probably already overjoyed and eager to sell the sword sooner.
But Wang Chong actually refused.
"You hang the sword in Qingfeng Tower, isn't it just to sell the sword?"
Zhao Fengchen said.
"Not bad! Why doesn't the prince sell at such a high price? Isn't this reasonable for the prince?"
Merced said so.
Wang Chong's words really caught him off guard. Merced thought that he might meet a strong competitor, but he did not expect that Wang Chong, the owner of the sword, would not sell it!
"I've already said that there are only seven days, you can't touch, you can't look. And there's only one hour a day, so it won't be out of date. Now, seven days have passed, and one hour of selling time... has also passed!"
Wang Chong pointed at Qingfeng Corridor.
At this moment, Zhao Fengchen, Moside, including Cheng Youqing, Huang Jiao and others upstairs were all stunned. It was only then that everyone remembered that Wang Chong had indeed said this rule on the first day:
His sword is only sold for seven days, can't be seen, can't be touched, and only one hour a day!
This rule has been heard countless times, but no one has taken it to heart. But no one would have imagined that Wang Chong would be rejected because of this rule.
"Wei Hao, let's go!"
Wang Chong ignored Merced and Zhao Fengchen.
After greeting Wei Hao, he turned around and left. This time, Wei Hao didn't question Wang Chong any more, he smiled, turned around and left, quickly following Wang Chong.
"Wait a minute, the rules can be changed. Young Master Wang, I am willing to pay a higher price!"
exclaimed Merced from behind.
Wang Chong smiled, ignoring what Merced said. The distance of several dozen meters passed in a flash, Wang Chong flung his sleeves lightly, and quickly got into the carriage.
"boom!"
Behind him, the crowd completely detonated.
"Crazy, really going crazy! How can there be such a person in this world, don't want any money sent!"
"Forty thousand taels! That's forty thousand taels of gold! What the hell is that guy thinking?"
"Isn't the sword used to sell it? Others buy it, why not sell it? You don't want it, but give it to me!"
"I regret it! I knew this sword was so valuable, I bought it on the first day."
...
The crowd "wailed" and it felt like it was going crazy. No one knew what Wang Chong was like. For many people, the opportunity they dreamed of was simply rejected by Wang Chong, without the slightest heartbeat.
And when they think of the precious gems on Wang Chong's sword, many people feel even more regretful, and they beat their chests and feet one by one.
Wang Chong's Uzi steel sword was worth more than 600 taels of gold just from the gems inlaid on it, but there were so many people watching that day, and no one started to attack.
No one thought that this sword was so valuable in the end!
Thinking of this, those people felt even more "heart and lung pain".
"These noble children, the money is really fast! You don't have to do anything, you can make a lot of money."
However, when the crowd was noisy, no one noticed that in the corner of the crowd, a man in his 30s and 40s, with unshaven beard and disheveled clothes, who looked like a gangster, smacked his mouth and watched silently. The direction Wang Chong left.
No one knows when this person came, and no one knows his origin, only that this person should have witnessed the whole process of sword fighting.
"... Thirty-two swords, each losing 1,200 taels of gold, add up to 38,400 taels of gold. This is truly a huge sum of money!"
The man looked in Wang Chong's direction, and there was some inexplicable taste in his eyes.
In this age of underdeveloped mathematics, many people need to use their fingers to add from one to ten, but this man who looks like a gangster is very familiar with it. He can easily calculate Wang Chong without even thinking about it. Profit from this gamble.
With a grin in his mouth, the man suddenly supported the wall, stood up staggeringly, and walked towards Wang Chong's direction.
...
The carriage did not start.
Shen Hai and Meng Long were outside directing the people from Qingfeng Tower to carry boxes of gold into the carriage, while Wang Chong and Wei Hao waited silently in the carriage.
Tens of thousands of taels of yellow is not a small number, but with the guards of the Duke of Wei's mansion, they are not afraid of people coming to make trouble. Wang Chong and Wei Hao were inside waiting for Shen Hai and Meng Long to complete the task.
"38,400 taels of gold, to complete this, it is not far from the goal of 90,000 taels of gold."
Having solved the problem of sword fighting, Wang Chong felt a lot more relaxed in his heart.
Without having to sell a single sword, he could earn an extra 40,000 taels of gold just by gambling with a sword. This was something Wang Chong didn't expect at the beginning.
Although there is still a long way to go before 90,000 taels of gold, Wang Chong is not in a hurry. All in all, he has his own plans.
"When this is done, I can put all my strength into practice and concentrate on martial arts."
Wang Chong secretly said in his heart, his hands were holding the back of his head, his body relaxed, and he slowly leaned back, leaning against the wall of the carriage.
The pressure from the family is too great, all kinds of crises are like shadows, and if you take one wrong step, you may lose the whole game and disappear.
Under such circumstances, Wang Chong didn't dare to be distracted at all. In terms of martial arts, naturally there is no way to concentrate on cultivation.
However, now that the crisis of the family has been resolved and the Hyderabad ore is available, Wang Chong has laid the most solid foundation for his future.
From then on, Wang Chong could finally have nothing to worry about.
"Wang Chong, you were in Qingfeng Building just now, why didn't you reveal your identity? If you did, it would definitely save trouble."
Inside the carriage, Wei Hao suddenly said. He still doesn't understand this. If these guys knew that Wang Chong was a descendant of the Wang family, their attitude would definitely be completely different.
"No need!"
Wang Chong said with a smile, "You can solve such trivial matters by yourself. If you have to rely on your family's prestige, wouldn't it be too unwilling?"
Wei Hao was slightly stunned, this was something he didn't expect.
"What about Zhao Fengchen? Forty thousand taels of gold, it's a pity that such a good opportunity is lost."
Wei Hao said with a pained expression.
Although he believed in Wang Chong's decision, he still felt a great pity when he thought about missing out on the 40,000 taels of gold.
Hearing Wei Hao's words, the corner of Wang Chong's mouth had a bigger smile.
"Don't worry, I can't run!"
Wang Chong said.
Some things, Wang Chong did not elaborate. Wei Hao didn't know that the reason why Wang Chong set a rule that he could not see or touch this sword sale was because he was not ready to sell the sword at all.
The key to "hunger marketing" is that it must not easily satisfy the appetite of buyers. If Wang Chong agreed to Zhao Fengchen's request just now, he would still be able to get 40,000 taels of gold, but the other Uzi steel swords would probably not be sold again in the future, nor could they be sold at this price!
This is something Wang Chong absolutely cannot do.
As for Zhao Fengchen, Wang Chong was not worried at all. With the deep abyss between him and the Uzi steel sword, no matter what, he can't escape.
But these are not from this era, and Wang Chong is not easy to tell Wei Haoming.
Shen Hai and Meng Long were very efficient, and in just a while, the 38,400 taels of gold had been transported. Half of them were moved into Wang Chong's carriage, and the other half was moved into Wei Hao's carriage, guarded by experts from the Wei family and followed behind.
"Sir, it's alright!"
Shen Hai and Meng Long lifted the curtain and got in from the outside. Wang Chong nodded, and with a wave of his palm, the carriage started from the front of Qingfeng Tower and slowly drove forward.
"Ah! What are you doing? How do you walk without eyes!"
The carriage turned a corner, and just after driving more than ten meters away, there was a sudden commotion in front of it, and then there was a screeching sound from the coachman, as if someone rushed under the carriage.
Before Wang Chong and Wei Hao could react, with a click, the door of the carriage was forcibly opened from the outside, and a dirty palm came in, and then Wang Chong and Wei Hao saw a messy , gangster-like, extremely tired head.
"Two young masters, lend me some money. Don't worry, I will set up the receipt, and I will pay you back in the future."
The man stretched out his palm and smiled at Wang Chong and Wei Hao.
