The biography of Gu Qi, a poor girl

Of course, these ship gangs are also different from the small pirate gangs that usually rely on robbing small passing merchant ships to make ends meet.

The main source of income for the ship gang is to transport bulk goods from north to south by sea. Since it is obvious that it is doing business, it naturally follows the rules of business.

Don't look at these ship gangs who act fiercely and have a tough style. Even the navy of the imperial court suppressing bandits is afraid to avoid them, but they are extremely trustworthy.

In addition, in order to control the risk of cooperation, these ship gangs also have quite different ways of doing business with mainland merchants. What's more, they are extremely xenophobic. If there is no guide, they will easily not cooperate with unfamiliar merchants.

The Universal Association was able to get through this line, which shows its astonishing connections and financial resources.

Cui Ying glanced at the guests in the audience, waited for a moment before announcing the rules of the auction unhurriedly, and the members in the audience quickly recovered after the initial surprise.

Zunji Magenta Coral is indeed a good thing, but this thing is not practical in the Yuzhong area. Most of the people present are merchants, and not many are interested.

Furthermore, the price of this item is too high, more than half of the people who came to the auction today came for the Little Dragon Snake Gallbladder Wine, and they dared not use up all the money in their hands at the beginning.During the viewing period, only a few older photographers followed the waiter to the stage to observe the appearance of the red coral closely.

The starting price of this red coral ornament with a flying phoenix was 9000 taels, and it was finally sold at 1 taels.

This price is not low, but according to the appearance of the red coral itself, this price is also slightly conservative.Everyone knew that if Four Seas would send this red coral to Kyoto, the price would increase by at least another [-]%.In this way, it was because they were members of Xiaoyao Building that they took advantage.

The Four Seas Club brought quite a lot of auction items this time. In addition to the top-quality red coral, there are also antique calligraphy and paintings from the previous dynasty, or gems transported from Western Xinjiang, each of which is very valuable.

Among them, the most precious is a string of 108 pearls. The beads are sea pearls from the depths of the East China Sea. The half-inch top-quality South Sea gold beads are paired with turquoise pure gold partitions on both sides, which shows its luxury.

Such an exaggerated handwriting can be seen at a glance that it was not the hand of an eminent monk from a famous temple.

But this does not prevent the priceless value of this rosary.

Just because this rosary is not only made of extremely expensive and extravagant materials, but also its origin is also extraordinary.

There are quite a few people who have seen this in the auction, and without Cui Ying's detailed explanation, many people have already seen that this string of chanting is the beloved object of Rongfu Diji, the former princess who protects the country.

Rongfu Diji is the eldest sister of the emperor who ruled the previous dynasty, and she was also a brave female general who led an army of [-] in the southern expedition and the northern expedition.

It can be said that in the founding of the previous dynasty, Rongfu Emperor Ji's military exploits accounted for at least [-]% of the military exploits. Because the emperor who opened the previous dynasty respected this elder sister very much, he was canonized as the princess protecting the country with the word Rongfu at the beginning of the dynasty. This is enough to show the dignity of the eldest princess.

And this string of rosary beads is the son-in-law of the princess who protects the country. The former richest man in the south of the Yangtze River wanted to please the princess. It took three years to collect all kinds of top-level treasures and personally weave them for the princess.
