Chapter 76 Gold Harvester

"The banquet was held as scheduled, and a total of 139 people attended the banquet. The little immortal master prepared three combinations of fire god liquid for each person. In addition, he recruited 362 dancers from Honglu Temple, 64 musicians from Jiaofang and Liyuan musicians, 72 wine lovers."

Drinking girl?

Li Longji has a strange expression. What kind of girl is this?

When he was free, Li Longji simply put on the chessboard and started talking to Gao Lishi.

In the past few days, he carefully studied the ancient chess score written by Gao Mangmo. He seemed to have made some breakthroughs in chess skills, and he was more than enough to abuse Gao Lishi.

Just after the game of fast-track chess was played, the eunuch came forward to report: "Report, the dinner is over, the little immortal master clears the field, and the auction begins."

The show is finally here.

Li Longji threw down the chess piece in his hand and asked Gao Lishi to use it as a list of people at the auction, and looked through it.

Gao Mang brought a total of twenty jars of Fire God Liquid from Wangwu Mountain, one jar is one hu, that is, ten jars, a total of eight hundred kilograms. To be honest, there are not many, and it can even be said to be very few.

What Li Longji wondered was that Gao Mang's 800 kilograms of Vulcan liquid were divided into four batches for auction, and only 200 kilograms were auctioned at a time, which was five jars of wine.

Li Longji has made a special calculation. A dou of ordinary white wine on the market is only 300 copper coins, and a dou of good wine costs ten thousand coins.

After the destruction of Gaochang State in the Western Regions, a batch of wine treasured by King Gaochang in the cellar was scattered among the people. Now it has been fryed to a sky-high price of 100,000 yuan, which is already the ceiling of the price of Datang wine.

Li Longji estimated that the price of the Vulcan Liquid was almost the same. Two hundred buckets of Vulcan Liquid could be sold for at least 20,000 guan.

Tsk, 20,000 guan is enough to build a 400-pound gold man. No wonder this kid doesn't let me intervene.

Li Longji was very excited. If he could mass-produce the Vulcan Liquid in the future, he would be a gold-swallowing beast.

Thinking of this, Li Longji became nervous and asked the eunuch: "What are the movements of King Ning?"

The eunuch hurriedly said, "At the banquet, King Ning and Master Xiaoxian had a few conversations, but every time Master Xiaoxian left, he had something to do."

Li Longji nodded slightly. That's good. He knew this elder brother. He could spend money while making money. He saw the potential of Taoist tea. He could not see such a large deal with the Vulcan Liquid.

Fortunately, Gao Huairou is pretty sure, otherwise he would have been fooled by King Ning to agree, and he would not be able to take action.

Gao Lishi whispered: "Sanlang, should you send someone to say hello so that the little immortal master will not be able to control it."

Li Longji shook his head: "Wait a little longer."

A quarter of an hour later, another eunuch came in and reported loudly: "Report that the first batch of Fire God Liquid was auctioned off, and it was obtained by the Uighur envoys of the nine surnames of Tiele. The auction price was 300,000 yuan per bull!"

How many?!

Li Longji was stunned and almost doubted his ears.

After getting the confirmation from the eunuch, he couldn't help but gasp.

A bucket of Fire God Liquid was sold for 300,000 yuan.

When Li Taibai's fireworks came to Yangzhou in March, he spent only one year to help poor friends, and he spent only 300,000 yuan.

Li Longji was shocked and also reacted, why did Gao Mang divide the Vulcan liquid into four batches for auction?

Scarcity is precious, and the more you go, the more valuable the Vulcan liquid is!

Li Longji finally made up his mind and said to Gao Lishi: "Lishi, send someone to tell that boy, I agree!"

If he didn't agree, Li Longji knew very well that not only King Ning, but also the consortium behind Wu Huifei had targeted the Fire God Liquid, and was waiting for the opportunity in the Xiaoxian Master's Mansion.

If Gao Mang couldn't resist the pressure or temptation and reached some kind of agreement with these people, the matter would become complicated.

Never underestimate the power of capital. The amazing profit of Vulcan Liquid is enough to make those chaebols take risks and even lose their minds. It is no problem to poach a group of Tianyun Department of Heavenly Movement.

"Report, the second batch of Fire God Liquid, after fierce competition, was obtained by the Tubo envoy, and the auction price was for," the eunuch who reported the news swallowed, and then said, "One hundred kilograms of gold!"

One hundred kilograms of gold?!

Li Longji was shocked again. Is he going crazy?

Seeing the emperor's face incredible expression, the eunuch hurriedly explained: "Reporting to the saint, the person who helped the Tubo envoy raise the sign was a wine lover. The little immortal master initially thought he had heard it wrong. Zheng Sanniang, who was in charge of the auction, made a final decision after repeated determination."

Li Longji was so fascinated that he had known this, he would have been there in person in vain.

He could imagine how intense the auction scene was, and he didn't expect that there was such a benefit to accompanying the wine girl.

Yes, he was drunk and the beauty was in his arms. No one could have the spirit of a hero. He lingered in the fireworks place and spent a lot of money?

Ahem, the past is unbearable to look back on.

"Reported, the Dragon Elephant Kingdom, the Stone Kingdom, the Dakaro Tribe, and the Three Kingdoms united into an alliance and successfully captured the third batch of Vulcan liquid, with a transaction price of 200 kilograms of gold!"

Li Longji was already numb when he heard this. The transaction price of 200 kilograms of gold was equivalent to one kilogram of gold for one kilogram of wine. The Vulcan Liquid was already equivalent to gold.

The forces that successfully bid for three batches are actually somewhat mysterious.

Since the decline of the Turks, the Uighur tribes of the nine surnames of Tielle have quietly risen and their power in the Western Regions has become increasingly powerful, so they have grabbed the first batch of Vulcan liquid.

The second batch of Fire God Liquid winners, Tubo, were always strong enemies of the Tang Dynasty, and their power once expanded to the west of the Palacio Mountains, which shows its strength.

It is precisely because these forces are too strong that other small forces can only form alliances that they snatched the third batch of Vulcan liquid.

The envoys of these three small countries are also in distress. They will return to their country tomorrow, otherwise they will not be anxious and red.

"The six northeastern tribes such as Khitan, Bohai Kingdom, Xi people, and Heishui Mohe formed an alliance and successfully captured the last batch of Vulcan liquid. The transaction price was 400 kilograms of gold, of which 200 kilograms of gold were converted into a cow and horse."

Li Longji was no longer shocked when he listened to the eunuch's report, but his face was covered with a layer of haze.

The Khitan was the biggest threat to the Tang Dynasty in the northeast direction, and it was often entangled with other tribes attacking the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, while the Tang Dynasty sent troops to fight against the rebels over the years, it also adopted the strategy of Huairou and differentiation, which was to worry about the alliance between the Khitan and other northeastern tribes.

Although it was just an auction, it also allowed Emperor Li Longji to see bad signs, and he was really disgusted.

However, Li Longji was also a little relieved. The six tribal alliances actually used cows and horses to exchange for Vulcan liquid. Isn’t this exactly what he had expected before?

For those nomadic peoples, gold is nothing but dead objects. Once they encounter natural disasters, they cannot eat, drink, and cattle and horses are the foundation of their survival.

The more they lose their cattle and horses, the more they weaken their strength, and the more beneficial it will be to the Tang Dynasty.

"Summon Huairou into the palace, Lishi, go in person!" Li Longji said in a solemn voice.
