Datang romantic little landlord

Of course, Li Wangyou also knew that Empress Changsun was making fun of herself.

He could only change the topic: "Auntie, half of the property in my family is owned by the palace. Whether I can make money today depends on whether my aunt can help me."

"Oh? How do you want your aunt to help you?" Queen Changsun asked curiously.

Li Wangyou smiled very happily: "Of course I want to ask my aunt to help my nephew as a babysitter."

"Teacher? What does that mean?" Empress Changsun asked puzzled.

Datang naturally didn't have the word "Tuoer".

This is the imperial dialect of later generations, which refers to pretending to be customers and making various gestures to lure real customers to buy products.

Li Wangyou just hoped that the eldest grandson queen would help him act as a babysitter and stimulate those noble ladies who came to participate in the auction.

If it were other dynasties, no one would dare to compete with what His Majesty the Empress is looking for.

But now it was the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and the reverence of those aristocratic families towards the royal family was quite indifferent.

Even Li Er can be dissed directly above the court, let alone the eldest grandson empress.

Being able to snatch things from the hands of Empress Changsun is even more exciting and exciting for the noble ladies of five surnames and seven wang families.

Li Wangyou only saw through this point before he came up with the idea of ​​asking the eldest grandson empress to be a babysitter for the auction house.

After figuring out what Li Wangyou meant, Li Er, Empress Changsun and the others couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Ziyou, you... this is too nonsense!" Empress Changsun said angrily.

"Hey, Auntie, what a nonsense, my nephew is helping my aunt to make money."

Empress Changsun was dumbfounded, and finally nodded slightly, acquiescing to Li Wangyou's idea...

(My arm was sore yesterday, I really didn’t want to type on the keyboard. I’m sorry everyone, I will make up for it in two updates today. By the way, one shoulder and biceps have been sore for a long time. Is it frozen shoulder?)

964 You're so cute

The guests were invited to sit in the auction hall by the maids, and the thoughtful service brought hot towels, drinks, melon and fruit snacks.

To let others pay for it, it is natural that the service is in place.

Not long after, Li Wangyou saw that almost all the guests he had invited had arrived, so he ordered someone to send a message, indicating that the auction could start.

Qiu Kun, dressed in a black suit, walked to the auction stage with a smile all over his face, and saluted the guests in the hall.

This fat man Qiu Kun is the auctioneer of today's auction.

Li Wangyou originally thought that being an auctioneer was an easy job.Isn't it just to take a small wooden hammer and stand on the stage to preside over the bidding?

In his opinion, one person can do it.

But after Su Zhangqing gave him a popular science, the job content and responsibilities of an auctioneer, he was a little tangled.

According to Su Changqing, an auctioneer needs to understand potential buyers, grasp the speed and rhythm of the auction, and be able to gain insight into the minds of potential buyers off the market through observation.

To put it bluntly, it is necessary to be able to mobilize the enthusiasm of the bidders, keep an eye on six directions, and speak lotus flowers, so that the auction item can obtain a higher selling price.

Such a person is not easy to find.

When Li Wangyou was worrying about where to find a suitable auctioneer, it happened that the fat man Qiu Kun came to visit his house, which made his eyes light up.

This fat man is suitable!

The relationship between Changan Qiu's family and Li Wangyou's family has grown closer in the past two years.

Li Wangyou would not despise merchants like Qiu Jia like Tang people did.

Even though his title is getting higher and higher, both Qiu Yuanliang and Qiu Kun feel a little uneasy, but he still treats his enemies as before.

Although the food he got from selling erotic pictures to his enemies was not used in the end, Li Wangyou did not forget the love for his enemies.

Whenever Li Wangyou held a banquet, he would always invite his enemies.And the fat Qiu Kun, because of Li Wangyou, often hangs out with Cheng Chumo, a group of top dandies in the Tang Dynasty.

It is also the relationship between the Qiu family in Chang'an and the Duke of Fufeng that makes the Qiu family's status in Chang'an city special.

Back then, when Li Wangyou accompanied the fat man Qiu Kun to Zhang Liang's mansion to present paintings, just because the fat man was dressed in black, he was ordered to drink by the stewards of Zhang Liang's mansion, and he was beaten for it. His status was so low.

But now, even though Qiu's family is still a low-level merchant and can only wear black soap clothes, Qiu Yuanliang can have a drink with those noble officials, and when he goes to those noble mansions, he can also be treated like a guest.

All of this was naturally due to the relationship between the Qiu family and Li Wangyou.

Because Qiu Kun has been hanging out with the dudes for a long time, he is very familiar with the situation of the noble officials and wealthy families in Chang'an.

Moreover, the fat man has helped Li Wangyou manage the boiled water sales business in the past two years, and he has become more and more mature and smooth, and he can be regarded as a budding merchant among the rich merchants in the eastern and western cities of Chang'an.

Therefore, as soon as Li Wangyou saw Fatty Chou Kun's appearance, his heart immediately moved, and he felt that letting Fatty host the auction house seemed...reliable!

After a little thought, Li Wangyou made a decision to hand over the auction house to Qiu Kun.

After pulling Fatty over and explaining to him what an auction house is, how it works, and how to make a profit, Fatty's eyes began to light up.

Although Qiu Kun had never heard of any auction house, he had a business sense. After listening to Li Wangyou's explanation, he immediately saw the value of the auction house.

If Li Wangyou handed over the auction house to him, then the Changan Chou family would really prosper.

The clients of the auction house are either rich or expensive. If Qiu Kun can control the auction house for Li Wangyou, the benefits of building a good relationship with these people are self-evident.

It is not impossible for his heirs to break away from business status and become officials.

"Ziyou, are you serious? Then the auction house, do you really trust me and are willing to entrust it to me?"

"Of course it's true, can I still lie to you?"

Li Wangyou knew the value of the auction house, but he didn't mind supporting a fat man like Qiu Kun.

The fat man was still worried, showing a pitiful expression, and tugged on Li Wangyou's sleeve: "Ziyou, don't you want to play tricks on me, really leave the auction house to me?"

"Get out!" Li Wangyou was disgusted by the fat man's expression, and pushed his fat face aside angrily: "If you look at me like that again, I'll go find someone else !"

Damn, this fat man is too disgusting, and he's not a beauty, he's so cute!

Qiu Kun didn't dare to continue to play tricks, and discussed with Li Wangyou about the auction house in a serious manner.

It has to be said that Fatty Qiu Kun is indeed talented.

In Su Fujia's auction house, Li Wangyou is just a hands-off shopkeeper. Apart from talking about it, other things are done by the fat man Qiu Kun.

The recruitment and training of personnel, the various operations of the auction house... In a few months, the fat Qiu Kun lost a lot of weight, but the results were remarkable.
