Cui Shixue nodded, "So trying to get money from them is another issue."
"This problem can be solved. Wealth and nobility, wealthy but not noble, then they only have treasures without a name, they are the lowest class merchants. They want nobility, they want a name, so you should prepare from this aspect," Qin Liuxi said. "Use the official name to hold a charity auction."
Cui Shixue was taken aback, "What is this?"
"Charity auction, under the guise of charity, the proceeds from the auction naturally go for disaster relief, thus reputation is gained. As I said earlier, being wealthy but not noble is a merchant's sore spot. They aren't short of money, they lack name, nobility, so they like to patronize elegance, and are eager to revolutionize their family status."
Qin Liuxi, holding a teacup, said, "It's difficult for merchants by registration to take the imperial examination. If there's such an opportunity for consideration, they'd surely be willing to spend money for it."
