Today's Mitre auction house is undoubtedly the hottest one this year, in the spacious hall, the crowd is surging, and the noisy noise makes Xiao Yue and the others who have just come in their heads clouded, and their ears are like a large swarm of flies scurrying, which makes people upset.

Looking at the impassable hall, Xiao Lin frowned and shook his head helplessly, so he had to let the people from the auction hall take them through the VIP passage, and then they entered the auction safely.

In the auction, although there were a lot of people, but compared to the outside, it was much quieter, Xiao Lin swept the venue, and then took Xiao Yue and the others to the front of the auction table and let them sit down.

However, Xiao Zhan and the three elders did not sit down together, but nodded to Xiao Lin, and took the initiative to leave Xiao Yue and the others and walk towards the back of the auction.

Seeing this, Xiao Yue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, raised her head and asked Xiao Lin in a low voice, "Teacher, what are they doing here?"

Hearing Xiao Yue's question, Xiao Lin smiled lightly, patted his little head, and replied, "Hehe...!Business matters, don't worry about it!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yue understood that it should be to negotiate the transaction dividends of the Earthquake Thunder, although in recent months, the interests of the Earthquake Thunder have been taken up by other imitation forces. However, the biggest one in the market is still the Xiao family, the first to eat crabs, after all, the reputation has been established, and some people still like to buy things from the Xiao family. Therefore, the sale of Earthquake Thunder is still the Xiao family's largest source of income, and the cooperation with the Temir Auction House has not yet ended.

"Understood!"

Knowing the reason, Xiao Yue was not interested in continuing to inquire, just like Xiao Lin said, this matter is not in their hands, he just waits for the money. So, he began to look around boredly, lazily leaning back in his chair, waiting for the auction to begin.

"Hey, little leaf, I'm going to take a fancy to something later... Can you lend me some money?" Xiao Yue crossed his legs leisurely, squinting slightly in confusion, but his shoulder was suddenly patted by Xiao Li, and the slightly eager inquiry came into his ears, which made the corners of his mouth hook slightly.

"Yes, of course we can, we've known each other for so long, what do you say about borrowing or not borrowing, how hurtful it is! Take anything less than a hundred gold coins, you don't have to pay it back!How?" Xiao Yue glanced at Xiao Li, who was looking forward to it, smiled, and said with a righteous face.

Hearing this, Xiao Li's little face immediately darkened, and after listening to the other party's first half of the sentence, he was almost moved to tears, and said with emotion in his heart: There are brothers like this, what more can a husband ask for!

The result was too late to make him grateful, and immediately revealed the ugly face of the philistine, and his heart suddenly vomited three liters of blood.

Stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Yue on the shoulder, pulling a stiff smile, and sneered: "Hey! It's so generous, I don't have to pay it back...... 100 gold coins... Shall you send a beggar?

Grandma's bears are so rich and so stingy, I said, why are you saving so much money? You also said that we have known each other for so many years, and you can't just give tens of thousands of dollars to a brother?"

"Tens of thousands, ahem...... What's that? Brothers are brothers, love is righteousness, what's the matter with money? Don't tell me anything more than 100 gold coins, hurt your feelings!" slapped Xiao Li's little hand on his shoulder, and the smile he said made Xiao Li almost can't help but beat him, provided that he can beat him.

"Cut, stingy ghost!" Xiao Li, who was bored with himself, pouted, although he knew that the other party was joking, if he really needed it, Xiao Yue was still very generous, but even so, he still felt a little embarrassed.

Xiao Ding, who was beside him, saw this scene, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and he couldn't help crying and laughing, but he didn't think it was strange, although his younger brother was very arrogant and his temper was a little horizontal, but when he met Xiao Yue, he was like meeting a nemesis, and no matter how big his temper was, he had to wither.

"Hey, brother, the Galie family and the Oba family are also here!" Xiao Li, who was bored in Xiao Yue, shook his head and looked around, just in time to see two groups of people who were not strangers entering the venue, he couldn't help but pull Xiao Ding's clothes and pouted.

Hearing this, Xiao Yue, who was a little bored, looked up at the entrance, but saw the two groups of people talking and laughing, and entered together. At the head were two middle-aged men with the temperament of a superior, and the others were obviously centered on them, among them was a short figure that Xiao Yue was familiar with, but it was not Garebi's guy.

It's just that seeing these two groups of people mixed together, the corners of Xiao Yue's eyebrows wrinkled inadvertently, turned her head to look at Xiao Lin who was not bogged by Gujing, and said softly: "Teacher, these two groups of people don't seem to have much contact with each other before, why do they seem to have a tendency to be traitors now!"

Xiao Lin chuckled when he heard this, and said disdainfully: "It's not that I see that our Xiao family's strength is getting stronger and stronger, so I feel uneasy, and I think I can compete with us when I want to mix them together, hmph! Don't pay attention to them, a group of clown-like scum jumping off the beam!"

"Hehe, scum?" Hearing this, not only Xiao Yuewan'er, but even the two Xiao Li brothers around them couldn't help laughing, secretly calling their old man fierce.

Xiao Li sighed and admired his grandfather, and at the same time glared viciously at Galeo, who had been staring at him with a cold gaze.

While Xiao Yue and the others were discussing, the other two families naturally noticed the Xiao family and Xiao Lin. But there was no intention of coming forward to say hello. After so many years, they have long been familiar with the temperament of Xiao Lin, an old thing, and they don't deal with it in the first place, so they understand that with their current strength and position, they will only take the initiative to step forward, and they will probably only bring humiliation on themselves, so they naturally don't bother to pay attention to it.

Seeing that the other two families did not come forward to disturb, but found another place with a good location to sit down, Xiao Yue suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, although she was not afraid of them, she was afraid of entanglement.

As he was talking, Xiao Zhan and the others had already come out of the backfield, followed by Zhao Peng, and walked to Xiao Lin's side without hurrying and laughing.

"Old man Xiao, Yue Shao, you've been doing well lately!" As soon as he arrived, Zhao Peng stopped talking and laughing with Xiao Zhan, and said hello with a chuckle.

"Hehe... "Not to mention that the Xiao family and Temir are now in the secret moon period, the Temir family behind the other party alone can't let Xiao Lin ignore it, so he doesn't make a big deal about it, and responds with a smile.

Xiao Yue's eyes lit up when he saw Zhao Peng, he followed Xiao Lin and them out today, a big reason was to see Zhao Peng.

Of course, this is not because Xiao Yue has any evil conjectures about it, it is just to ask about the news of Yansheng Dan, he doesn't want Xiao Lin and them to know too much about this thing, so he can only ask Zhao Peng in person.

So, seeing Zhao Peng looking at herself, Xiao Yue also smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao......"

"Haha... This is not Old Man Xiao, you guys came early!"

Before Xiao Yue finished speaking to Zhao Peng, a sudden hearty voice sounded on the side of everyone, causing everyone to turn their heads to look, but they saw a middle-aged man in a yellow robe with a rich face and a little majesty inadvertently revealed in his gestures.

There was a kind smile on his slightly chubby face, which seemed to greet Xiao Lin, but the strange thing was that the corner of his eyes kept paying attention to Xiao Yue, which made him have doubts for a while, which made him extremely sensitive to soul perception.

Seeing the visitor, Xiao Lin and the others pulled their smiling faces, except for Xiao Lin, the rest of them all saluted slightly respectfully, and said, "I've seen the city lord!"

"Oh, don't be so polite, you've known each other for so long, so don't see each other!"

The lord of the city waved his hand, and said with a reproachful face, I don't know how kind and kind he is, but which of the people present is stupid, as early as when the other party first came to Utan City, he secretly gave him the nickname of the smiling tiger.

"This little brother should be Xiao Yue, right? Hey, it's really a talent, speaking of which, I've been in Utan City for so long, and it's the first time I've seen Xiao Yue's little brother, your Xiao family is really well hidden!" The city lord reached out and touched Xiao Yue's little head, which was a little stiff due to his sudden intimacy, which seemed amiable, but actually meant something.

"Let the city lord see it smile!" Xiao Lin was noncommittal, blocking Xiao Yue behind him without a trace, and said perfunctorily.

"Hehe... I'll go say hello to the Galie family and the Oba family first, and we'll see you later!" Seeing Xiao Lin's sudden and cold change, Xiaocheng suddenly felt bored, smiled lightly, and didn't intend to attract people's dislike, so he turned around and left leisurely.

It's just that the sensitive Xiao Yue stared at his back, but his brows furrowed slightly, I don't know if it was an illusion, he felt that the other party's gaze at him for a moment just now was a little strange, as if it was pity, or pity!

"This city lord has been in office for a year, but he is not visible, it is really unpredictable!" Looking at the city lord who was already talking and laughing with Garebi and Obapa, Zhao Peng sighed a little inexplicably in his tone.

"Hmph, if it were simple, the royal family wouldn't have sent him to take over Sikong!" Xiao Zhan on the side sneered.

On the contrary, Xiao Lin did not speak, but glanced at Xiao Yue with a cloudy gaze, flashed thoughtfully, and finally sighed leisurely.

The strange thought was only abandoned for a moment, because Xiao Yue remembered the real purpose of today, and hurriedly smiled at Zhao Peng: "Mr. Zhao, sorry to disturb, can you take a step to speak?"

"I don't know what advice Yue Shao has?" Zhao Peng was slightly stunned in his heart, and the corner of his eyes swept over Xiao Zhan and the others, who were also surprised, and asked softly with a smile on his face.

Xiao Yue, who also noticed the different colors of the clansmen, didn't care, glanced up, and said, "I'm sorry everyone! The kid has some personal matters to ask Mr. Zhao about you, I hope you don't mind!"

"There's no need to care, go ahead, it's just troublesome Mr. Zhao!" Xiao Lin waved his hand, not caring about it.

"Don't bother, then please come with me!" Seeing that Xiao Lin was so conniving, then Zhao Peng would not have any opinions, and he himself hoped to befriend Xiao Yue, a possible top powerhouse in the future.

Saying that, he turned around and walked to the backstage that he had just come out, Xiao Yue owed to Xiao Lin, and hurriedly followed Zhao Peng.

"Cut! It's always mysterious, Xiao Yezi, this guy..."Xiao Li, who was lazily lying on his seat watching this scene, muttered dissatisfiedly.

"I don't know how young Yue is, what do I need to know?" took Xiao Yue to a shadowy place where no one was around, Zhao Peng turned around and stared at Xiao Yue playfully, and went straight to the point.

"Mr. Zhao, you are really a noble person who forgets things! Have you forgotten that I inquired with you about the 'Yansheng Pill' a year ago, I don't know if there is still news about it!" Xiao Yue saw this, and asked directly without nonsense.

"Oh, you see I'm so busy, I've forgotten about this stubble, why do you still need your elders now?" Zhao Peng seemed to suddenly realize, patted his forehead, and then looked at Xiao Yue with a smile.

He didn't believe that the other party had any tricks like relatives and friends and elders were dying, and more than a year was enough for him to thoroughly investigate the eighteenth generation of the other party's ancestors, and there were no elders to burp at all.

Then the other party wants something like 'Yansheng Pill', the purpose is a bit playful, but although he is curious, he has no intention of revealing it, otherwise it may attract the evil feelings of this future powerhouse, which is too stupid.

Seeing the playful gaze at Zhao Peng, Xiao Yue also knew that the other party must have noticed something, and yes, if he hadn't found a problem with this simple lie for a year, then the other party would not have reached his current status.

However, since Xiao Yue found the other party, he would not care about this, he believed that if the other party was smart, he would definitely not go outside and say anything.

Thinking in his heart, he sighed on the surface: "Mr. Zhao, if you know, please let me know, Xiao Yue will have a good reward in the future!"

Zhao Peng was very satisfied with Xiao Yue's last sentence, which was also the purpose of his initiative to make friends, in the final analysis, he was still a businessman at heart, and he didn't bother to care about worthless goals.

At the moment, he couldn't help but smile and said: "That contemptible person will not sell Guanzi, Guhe has already refined the Yansheng Pill and successfully promoted to the fifth-grade alchemist, it is said that the entire imperial capital was shocked at that time, and the Yunlan Sect can be regarded as a treasure now!"

"It......'s done?"

"Ahem... That...!" Zhao Peng sighed, and before Xiao Yue was happy, he continued to regret: "It's a pity to disappoint Yue Shao, the current patriarch of the Temir family tested the other party's tone when he came to congratulate him, and Gu He doesn't seem to have the idea of auctioning the 'Yansheng Pill' at present!"

"What... Not for sale!Alas, that's a pity!" Xiao Yue's voice was a little disappointed, but he quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, after all, if there was really auction competition, with his current financial resources, there was really no hope, not to mention that there were many forces that could be regarded as behemoths for him at the moment.

On the surface, Xiao Yue still seemed to be unwilling to ask: "With the value of this 'Yansheng Pill', there must be a lot of coveted forces and strong people! Could it be that they are so willing to miss it, and they haven't done anything to induce and coerce Guhe?"

Hearing this, Zhao Peng smiled dumbly, and sighed in his heart that he was still a ghost after all, and he couldn't help but think about things too simply.

On the surface, he was very patient, and met Xiao Yue's "puzzled" gaze, and explained with a smile: "Yue Shao, things are not as simple as you think, don't forget, Gu He is now a five-grade alchemist, and in the entire empire, except for the president of the alchemist union, who can compare! Not to mention that compared to the latter, Gu He is younger, and the potential for progress in the future is even greater, what fool will be who will let his friends not do it, but instead sin the other party for just one pill?"

"Besides, the Yunlan Sect behind the ancient river is not a vegetarian, even if it is the royal family, I am afraid that it will not offend this giant lightly, let alone others!

Xiao Yue didn't expect that the other party, as a Temir, would respect the Yunlan Sect so much, and she couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded in her heart at the moment, but she said with regret in her mouth: "Alas... Indeed, in this way, I can only give up this idea, but I also ask Mr. Zhao to help me pay attention to whether there is anything similar, and the kid thanked me first!"

"Yue Shao is polite, I must help pay attention to it in the future, as long as there is news, people will notify you immediately!" Zhao Peng agreed without hesitation, and then noticed that the guests in the front field were almost all there, smiled slightly, and said: "If Yue Shao still has something to do, let's continue to nag after the auction is over, and we will preside over the auction first." ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry to trouble Mr. Zhao! I'm ashamed to say that I want to visit Mr. I've always said that I want to visit Mr., but I haven't had a chance to do so for various reasons, so I will definitely visit you after this time to thank you!" Xiao Yue said apologetically.

"Hehe...!Then there is no need, the blessing of the noble family, because of the transaction of the earth-shaking thunder, he has also made great contributions to the family, so that the family can appreciate it, and after this auction, he will return to the head office of the imperial capital. I can only look forward to reuniting with Yue Shao in the imperial capital in the future!" Zhao Peng said with emotion, but there was a spring breeze in his tone.

Hearing this, Xiao Yue's heart moved, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and she chuckled: "Hehe... Congratulations to Mr. Zhao on his ascension, but I think it won't be long before we can see each other again!"

"Oh, what does Yue Shao mean?" Zhao Peng was stunned and puzzled.

"Huh...!"

Xiao Yue shook her head, chuckled inexplicably, didn't explain again, and took the lead in the front court.

Looking at Xiao Yue's young figure, Zhao Peng also shook his head, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he smiled: "Interesting...!"
