Chapter 246 Exclusive Product, Love or Not

The auction was going on steadily, but the eyes of those present were getting weirder and weirder.

There were hundreds of imperial nobles present, but not one raised a placard.

Only Baron Down from Ellington frequently raised his cards.

Is he deliberately showing off his financial strength and making a name for himself in Alexis, or is he really optimistic about the future market for magic crystals?

But when they thought about it again, they couldn't help laughing.

Can a country bumpkin lord's vision be as good as that of Grand Duke Frank, who has been in this business for decades?

Whose vision is more trustworthy? The answer is obvious.

As the auction progressed, eight small mines and three medium-sized mines all went into Tang En's pocket.

Two medium mines and one large mine remain.

"The Arcelor Magic Crystal Mine is located east of Alyinx. This is a medium-sized mine. The quality of the magic crystal is quite high, even compared to large mines... The starting price of the Arcelor Mine For ten million gold coins!”

Ten million gold coins!

Everyone present couldn't help but take a breath of air. It used to be one million gold coins, but this time it suddenly jumped to the tens of millions. Even for them, ten million gold coins may be their income for several years. This This kind of transaction must be done with caution.

Will Baron Down of Ellington continue to take action?

A group of people watched quietly.

The venue was silent.

Charles looked at Tang En expectantly, but unexpectedly, Tang En had no intention of raising his sign, and his face turned a little pale.

The previous ones are actually just appetizers. The next three mines, two medium-sized mines, and one large mine, these three are the really important ones!

But Charles thought about it and understood why Tang En didn't raise his sign.

Apparently he was out of money.

In the previous auction, Tang En had already spent 20 million gold coins. Even if his Tang En Chamber of Commerce made a fortune every day, and even if Tang En himself had a rich background, it was impossible for him to collect so many gold coins in such a short period of time. wealth.

Twenty million gold coins are probably his entire net worth.

However, if Tang En doesn't raise his hand, who else will be willing to buy it?

Charles was anxious.

Frank was also anxious.

Originally, he expected that Tang En must be related to Victor, so he had to have backup plans for the magic crystal mines. He would definitely buy all the mines without hesitation, but now that the really important mines have appeared, he has not taken action. .

This made Frank feel that his judgment was wrong.

Could it be said that they did not cooperate? Did Tang En just want to take advantage of the opportunity to buy the bottom?

"Ten million, ten million gold coins, no one bids?"

Charles didn't give up yet. In order to sell it as soon as possible, the price was already very low. If it couldn't be sold, it would be a big joke.

After repeatedly bidding, when Charles was desperate and thought he was going to lose the auction, a crisp voice suddenly sounded.

"Ten million."

Charles was startled and looked at Alleria in disbelief.

"I said, ten million."

Alleria's voice was clear and sweet, and she frowned as Charles stared at her: "Marquis Charles?"

"……oh oh!"

Charles came back to his senses and shouted with surprise: "Princess Alleria, ten million gold coins! Who else bids?"

Princess Alleria! ?

There was a commotion in the venue.

Frank's face darkened slightly, why would she bid?

Alleria would come, and Frank only thought that she showed up to represent the royal family, but he didn't expect that she would make a bid!

Is Victor crazy?

Frank doesn't think so. To be able to become an emperor and persist for so many years in the face of the aristocratic faction's rejection, he must not be stupid.

So, with the national treasury tight, what is his intention to let Princess Alleria buy the mine even if he saves precious military expenses?

What's missing? What information was he missing?

Why did Tang En and Alleria buy the mine?

"Princess Alleria, could you please answer our doubts."

A nobleman couldn't help but raised a question: "All of us know that the collapse in the price of magic crystal is closely related to the City of Silver. In the coming days, the market will inevitably collapse. Investing money now will be in vain. Why do you think so?" Will you buy the mine at this moment? Does His Majesty Victor know some inside information that we don’t know?”

His question made everyone present applaud!

Due to the issue of identity, Alleria had to answer his questions head-on and could not avoid them. Moreover, his last question was so tricky and vicious that it immediately pushed the royal faction represented by Victor into the opposition of the nobles.

Alleria stood up calmly and said calmly: "Everyone here is the pillar of our Illrus Empire. It is you who support this country..."

"puff……"

A group of people all looked at Tang En.

"Well, I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. Please continue."

Tang En covered his mouth, looking like he was suppressing a smile.

Alleria twitched the corner of her mouth and felt a little more favorable towards Tang En. She continued: "The Kadir family is also one of the pillars of our empire. Everyone knows that our Illrus royal family has always trusted them. In order to repay their dedication to the empire, the royal family gave the empire's property, the magic crystal mine, to the Qadir family for mining, and the royal family only levied a small amount of tax."

"Now that the magic crystal market has collapsed, the Kadir family has given up on saving the market and giving up the right to continue mining the mines. As the king of the empire, my father, His Majesty Victor, must take his own actions in order to save this market."

"Since the Kadir family has given up the mining rights, as a representative of the royal family, I will now come forward to reclaim the mining rights of the mine on behalf of the royal family. Of course, our Illus royal family is reasonable. In order to compensate the Kadir family, We will recycle the mine at current prices.”

pretty!

Tang En secretly cheered. Although it was just a few simple words, Alleria had unintentionally changed a concept - transforming the private mines owned by the Kadir family into owned by the empire. She only gave the mining rights to Kadir. The Dier family - now that the Qadir family has given up its mining rights, and the royal family has come forward to reclaim the mining rights, and also paid for it, they have nothing to say either publicly or privately.

Bailout?

Frank and Charles both frowned, feeling that something was not quite right, and there was something wrong with Alleria's words.

The damn mining rights were obviously won by the ancestors of the Kadir family during the profit distribution after the war. The ownership belongs to the Kadir family!

But...it's useless to talk about it now.

Now that the auction has come to an end, it can only continue.

After Alleria finished answering, she motioned for Charles to continue.

"For the third time ten million... Congratulations to Princess Alleria for obtaining ownership of the Ancelor Mine."

"The next mine..."

As expected, the subsequent medium-sized mines and large-scale mines all fell into Alleria's hands.

Finally all sold...

The entire auction was almost held for Princess Alleria and Tang En.

Charles wiped his cold sweat and said, "The auction is over. Now, please come to the banquet hall to attend the party we specially organized. Please, Princess Alleria and Baron Down, please come with me to handle the formalities."

Several people and Charles came to the back room, where a staff member from Star Diamond Bank was already waiting.

"Baron Down, a total of 22 million gold coins will be transferred to the account of our Qadir family, and the contracts for these mines will belong to you."

If he couldn't avoid it, Charles wouldn't want to see Tang En at all.

"Ah? Did you make something wrong?"

Tang En looked at Charles with a puzzled look on his face: "I don't have that many gold coins."

Charles was stunned, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. He couldn't help but roared in a low voice: "Baron Down! No money? Is it too late to say that there is no money now!? You dare to bid even if you have no money? !?"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood."

Tang En said calmly: "Although I have no money, I can give you something of equal value, and I believe you will definitely want it."

"are you kidding me!?"

"Of course not. If you don't believe me, you can call Duke Frank over. I think he should be interested in talking to me."

"No need to call, I'm coming."

A smiling Frank walked in from the side: "I think I need to listen to Baron Down's explanation."

"Duke Frank."

Tang En said nonchalantly: "Lawrence from Fort Kaspami made a request to me to purchase a large number of combine harvesters, but I rejected it."

Frank was still smiling: "Oh, why?"

"Materials, labor, costs... in short, the production capacity is limited, only enough for our own use."

Tang En spread his hands with a smile: "But, because I have no money, I decided to use a combine harvester to offset the price."

Such a cunning bastard!

Frank cursed secretly in his heart, but kept a calm expression on his face: "I wonder how much you plan to price a combine harvester?"

"Ten thousand gold coins."

"Too expensive."

Tang En threw out a sentence lightly: "Exclusive product, love it or not."

The muscles on Frank's face trembled: "Delivery time."

The smile on Tang En's face was very bright: "In short, we will produce 2,200 combine harvesters for you within half a year as the price of purchasing the mine. I think, based on the farm owned by the Kadir family, two thousand Two hundred combine harvesters might not be enough.”

Frank took a deep breath: "Within a week, Lawrence will get at least 100 units. We will give you at most three months to complete the production and send them all to the place designated by us."

Half a year? The spring harvest will be over in half a year. Do you want so many combine harvesters to be displayed at home? ?

Tang En deliberately pondered for a moment, feeling happy, and then nodded: "Three months is no problem, but we don't offer free shipping... uh, we don't deliver."

"……make a deal!"
