Chapter Ninety-One: Chief Host
"Is that you?" Looking at Xiangxue, a young woman in a white gauze skirt, Ye Kuan was a little surprised. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It turned out to be the second son of the Ye family, who has been in the limelight for a while recently," the moment she saw the young man in front of her clearly, Xiang Xue was also a little surprised, and said with a smile: "I don't know if the second son stepped into the welcome room of our Datong Auction House this time, what incredible treasures were entrusted to us for auction?" ”
Saying that, Xiangxue made a gesture of invitation and asked Ye Kuan to sit on a hundred-year-old pear chair.
Ye Kuan was not cramped, he slowly walked past the graceful woman, sat on the chair, and at the moment of passing by the woman, a faint fragrance wafted into his nose.
The fragrance lingers around the nose, refreshing and intoxicating, Ye Kuan feels that he is intoxicated for a moment.
"The rumors are true, people are as good as their names!" Ye Kuan said secretly.
Xiang Xue, the chief host of Datong Auction House, is rumored to be beautiful and sweet-skinned Bai Shengxue, who likes to wear plain white dresses, and has a strange fragrance on her body, and the person who smells it is intoxicated.
Another wisp of fragrance wafted into the nose, but it was not the body fragrance of the woman in front of her, but the rich fragrance of tea wafting from a pot of falling thin threads in the woman's hand.
Ye Kuan took the teacup handed by Xiangxue, took a small sip, and swallowed it only after the strong tea in his mouth slowly melted and turned into a wisp of bitter sweetness.
Xiangxue secretly looked at the young man in front of her, except for a pair of bright eyes, his appearance was ordinary, and he didn't have much outstanding.
However, Xiangxue doesn't think so, judging from the vicious eyes of countless people, under the seemingly young and immature appearance of the young man in front of him, what is hidden is the maturity and stability that is not like the man's age.
Ye Kuan put down the teacup, looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, and said, "I watched two auctions today, to be honest, your bank is really not very good, and its popularity is not good at all." ”
Hearing this, a hint of strangeness flashed in Xiangxue's eyes, but she didn't get angry, and said with a smile: "In that case, why did the second son find our auction house?" ”
"That's because such an auction house is worth cooperating with me." Ye Kuan went straight to the point.
"Huh? Tell me about it! "Xiangxue, which was originally like flowers blooming at the beginning, suddenly heard this, and the flowers bloomed in an instant, and they were really smiling like flowers.
Ye Kuan smiled, didn't speak, wiped his hand to his waist, took out a porcelain bottle, and pushed it in front of Xiangxue.
"Pills?" Looking at the porcelain vase, Xiangxue was slightly stunned.
After taking the porcelain bottle and uncorking it, a refreshing medicinal fragrance suddenly filled the room.
Although they are all refreshing, the body fragrance that is different from Xiangxue is intoxicating, and the medicinal fragrance wafting out of the porcelain bottle is refreshing and warm for people's limbs, as if bathed in the spring sunshine.
"The Zengyuan Pill suitable for Yuanshi in the Juyuan Period, the medicinal fragrance is rich, and even I smell it, I have the feeling that the Yuan Force is turning sharply, not bad, it is not much different from Wanbaofang." Just by sniffing it, Xiangxue judged the type and grade of the elixir in the porcelain bottle, which shows that this female treasure connoisseur is quite experienced and worthy of being the chief host of Datong Auction House.
It's just that this woman's tone is flat, and the porcelain bottle cork is pulled out and stopped, and then she looks at Ye Kuan quietly.
It's just a bottle of Zengyuan Pill suitable for Yuanshi in the Juyuan Period, judging by the medicinal fragrance, it is at most a few points better than the same pill sold in Wanbaofang, how can such a pill be on the table of the auction house.
Unless, this second son of the Ye family has a lot of this kind of Zengyuan Pill, so that it can become an auction item for auction, or......
This second son is an alchemist, and he can refine a higher-grade elixir!
To say that this woman is worthy of being the chief host of Datong Auction House, not only unique in terms of treasure appreciation, but also unique in terms of looking at people and analysis, but from a bottle of ordinary pills, as well as some of Ye Kuan's performances, Ye Kuan's secret and the purpose of the visit were guessed.
Facing Xiangxue's gaze, Ye Kuan's expression remained unchanged, and he looked back indifferently, but he was shocked in his heart, and secretly said that this woman's gaze was vicious, as if she could see through people's hearts.
Ye Kuan is not a stupid and dull person, so he can naturally see that the woman in front of him has seen through some of his secrets, although he can't hide these secrets here, but being seen through by others is very different from saying it himself.
This is a negotiation, and whoever holds the initiative will have a bigger bargaining chip.
Fortunately, in this negotiation, Ye Kuan had plenty of chips, but he lost a little at the beginning, and some had a chance to win back.
"Miss Xiangxue, you read that right? Is my elixir really only a few points better than Wanbaofang? Ye Kuan smiled slightly, and a hint of ridicule flashed in his eyes.
Xiangxue was stunned, could she have made a mistake?
Whether it is the medicinal fragrance or color, it is not much different from the one sold in Wanbaofang, how can you make a mistake!
"Since the second prince doesn't believe in the little girl's treasure appreciation ability," Xiang Xue smiled back, her eyes flashing with banter, "Then, the little girl has no choice but to invite the most professional treasure connoisseur in the bank to identify the second son's extraordinary bottle of 'Zengyuan Dan'." ”
Ye Kuan didn't seem to hear the banter in Xiangxue's words, and said, "It's okay, it's going to trouble the chief treasure connoisseur of your bank." ”
Xiangxue took a deep look at Ye Kuan, got up and walked to a small door in the room.
The whole welcome room is about three zhang long and wide, half a zhang high, and there are several pairs of calligraphy and paintings hanging on the white wall covered with ornaments, even Ye Kuan, a person who knows nothing about calligraphy and painting, can also see the delicacy and strength revealed in the calligraphy and painting, which is definitely from the hands of famous artists.
There are not many furnishings in the reception room, only a few calligraphy and paintings, a set of century-old pear tables and chairs sitting upright with the two of them, and a plate of iron calyx in the corner of the wall.
However, it is such a room, spacious but not empty, elegant but not monotonous, like the calligraphy and painting on the wall, it is definitely at the mercy of the hands of famous artists.
There are five calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and below the five calligraphy and paintings, there are five doors, and outside the door where Ye Kuan enters and the door opposite, the remaining three doors are numbered one, two, and three.
There are numbered doors, two or three on the left, one on the right, and at this moment Xiangxue is walking towards the door on the right.
Raising her hand and pressing on a button next to the door, Xiangxue said in a respectful tone: "Teacher, please come out for a while, there is a treasure that you need to identify." ”
"Hmm." Soon, a majestic man's voice came from behind the door.
The door opened softly, and a middle-aged man stepped out.
The middle-aged man had a tall figure and a resolute face, and as soon as he appeared, his eyes were like lightning shining directly at the only guest in the welcome room.
"What kind of treasure is it?" The middle-aged man walked past Xiangxue, who was waiting on the side, and walked to the opposite side of Ye Kuan and sat down.
"Teacher, it's a bottle of elixir." Xiangxue followed closely behind the middle-aged man, and only sat down again after the middle-aged man sat down and poured him a cup of fragrant tea.
"Is this the bottle?" The middle-aged man glanced at Ye Kuan, took the medicine bottle handed by Xiangxue, and uncorked it.
The middle-aged man just sniffed lightly, and a trace of displeasure immediately flashed in his eyes, and the cork in his hand was stuffed back into the mouth of the bottle.
Seeing this scene, the banter in Xiangxue's eyes reappeared, and her eyes turned to look at Ye Kuan.
However, when Xiangxue saw Ye Kuan, she couldn't help but be stunned again.
I saw that Ye Kuan's expression was calm and calm, not moved by everyone's performance at the moment, and he looked confident.
Don't!?
"Huh!?" Before Xiangxue could come up with a reason, the surprised voice of the middle-aged man beside her pulled the woman back.
Xiangxue looked back, and saw that the middle-aged man's hand that should have been stuffed back into the bottle cork retreated at this moment, and raised the mouth of the bottle to his nose again and sniffed it.
Before, it was just a slight sniff, but now that I sniff carefully, Xiangxue can naturally distinguish the difference.
I was mistaken!
Xiangxue looked back at Ye Kuan again, just as Ye Kuan's gaze greeted.
What do you think? I'm not wrong, right?
Ye Kuan said with a look in his eyes.
"Not bad!" It didn't take long for the middle-aged man to put the cork on again, nodded, looked at Ye Kuan, and said, "It's just good." ”
"However," the middle-aged man's voice changed suddenly, "it can barely be auctioned as an auction item in our auction house." ”
