Chapter 115 Scented bath beans are released
After wandering around the market for a long time, the group returned to the inn. On the second day, all staff recharged their batteries, and on the third day, everyone went out to the auction.
Tie Lanxin will also be present, and Nan Yang is naturally eager to accompany her.
She directly used the invitation as a cover. "We don't have an invitation card, and you know how precious that invitation card is. I still took advantage of Miss Bai. You go figure what's going on, it's a lot of inconvenience."
Nan Yang wanted to say, isn't Miss Bai's husband also going, he happened to be with Zhe Yu. But seeing Tie Lanxin's appearance, she shut her mouth sullenly.
Baicaoshi naturally didn't want Nan Qiang to follow her. It was inevitable that her fortune would be exposed at the auction, and bringing Tie Lanxin was already the bottom line.
Bai Xiaoshu is very happy. Before, his sister said that he should see the world more and do more things besides being a duck-raising manager. Along the way, he sees the world every day, and he feels more and more that his brother-in-law is amazing.

The venue of the auction is Bo Ya Building, the center of Bo Yang. Bo Ya Building is simple in shape, with blue-gray four-cornered cornices and wind chimes hanging from the cornices.
This is the place exclusively for Pei's auction.
The building is four floors high, with a four-story auction area in the middle. Other functional areas are set around the auction area. The first floor is the lobby, where ordinary spectators and bidders are seated; the second floor is the rich and well-to-do family of the gentry; Some dignitaries will also be invited to go upstairs to enjoy the scenery of Boyang after the auction.
Baicaoshi and his party were arranged in the private room on the third floor. This also shows that Pei Xingzhi attaches great importance to them.
The host of the auction routinely gave exaggerated praise to this auction.
The first lot is an appetizer, which is a picture of a beautiful woman painted by the great painter Duan Shaoyi of the Song Dynasty. This painter likes to travel around the world, especially likes to linger in romantic places. Because he is good at painting, he has become the guest of honor of all the oirans.
It is also a coincidence that the beauty in the painting is the heroine of "Hongqu Daughter" - Yanjing Hongxiu Tianxianglou Huakui Hongqu.
It detonated immediately at the beginning, attracting countless people to compete for quotations.
The final transaction price exceeded 8,000 taels of silver.
Baicaoshi supported his forehead, feeling ashamed. Harvesting Nanchao's thousand taels of silver is not as good as Hua Kui's paintings.
Bai Li saw her daughter's loneliness, "Little Cao'er, let's take a look, we don't need these things, and they are also used to catch dust."
Baicaoshi only smiled wryly.
Next, I took a few more expensive jewelry. Finally arrived at what Baicaoshi is interested in.
"Now, whether it is in the Yan Kingdom or the Song Dynasty, it is not surprising that the bath beans used by the people are made of acacia. The bath beans we are going to photograph today are specially provided by Wanzhou Xiangnanfang. For the first time, spices are incorporated into them. The fragrance is pleasant. The starting price is ten taels of silver, and the price will increase by one tael each time." The host said.
As soon as the voice fell, the cries of selling came one after another. This kind of item is the most considerate gift for a close friend. Of course, there is no lack of owners of rouge and gouache, and they plan to use it for research. If you make it first, you can also share a wave of bonuses.
"The master of Xiangnanfang is very powerful. The scented bath beans will be famous at the auction, and I am afraid it will be released in a short time. At that time, there will be a lot of competition for noble girls from aristocratic families. Xiangnanfang can live in rare goods, and you can earn money It's full." Zhe Yu analyzed.
Bai Xiaoshu stared at his brother-in-law dumbfounded. Brother-in-law knew everything, so he thought there was nothing unusual about these ordinary bath beans.
In Baicaoshi's business plan, there are such things as face cream, hand cream, and Yixiang bath beans. I didn't expect someone to make it so soon. It seems that she has gone to Wanzhou, so she has time to go to Xiangnanfang to have a look. Most importantly, obtain information on the origin of spices and establish supply channels for spices.
