Chapter 15: Trouble Comes to the Door
After screaming for a while, Xiao Gu shrank and went to sleep wrapped around his little finger. In the last game of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info, Lan Qingyu won 300,000 taels of silver, plus the 190,000 won in the previous nine games, a total of 490,000 taels, and after deducting the 10% given to the Holy Spirit Pavilion, there are still 440,000 taels left.
"I've had medicine for the past few years." After Lan Qingyu put the money into the star stone ring, he went home.
The royal house, inside the splendid hall.
A man in white sat in the center, holding a small scythe-like object in his hand, and slowly stood up.
"The winged mantis was actually bitten and eaten alive by a bone joint insect of Lan Qingyu?" The man's voice was low.
"Yes, father, I saw it with my own eyes." The young man replied lightly, as if this matter had nothing to do with him. The young man is Wang Shaoan, and this middle-aged man is the head of the Wang family, Wang Gang.
"I'll take care of this matter, you go down first." Wang Gang sat down slowly, looked at the left knife of the winged mantis in his hand and said.
Early the next morning.
"Bang bang ......" A series of knocks sounded on the door, and Lan Qingyu had just finished his cultivation.
"Yu'er, are you awake?" A familiar voice rang out eagerly outside the door.
Lan Qingyu ran over and opened the door with a smoke, "Hehe, mother, is there anything wrong with looking for me so early?" Lan Qingyu grinned.
"Are you causing trouble outside? Hurry up and wash up and go to the front hall, where the elders and patriarchs are there. After Qi Fei finished speaking, he hurriedly turned around and left.
Lan Qingyu ran to the front hall with a smoke, and on the upper seat were the patriarch Lan Lin and the great elder Lan Jiangyao, and on the first seat on the left sat a strange middle-aged man in white, his face was resolute and his face was angular. On the right sat several members of the clan. Although Lan Qingyu didn't know him, he recognized the little thing he was playing with at a glance: the left knife of the winged mantis. This person must be Wang Gang, the head of the Wang family.
"Damn, I can't beat it, and I still have the face to come to the door." Lan Qingyu was stunned.
"Elder Yao, I respect you as an elder, you can see what to do about this matter." Wang Gang took a sip of tea.
"Children are stubborn and ignorant." Lan Jiangyao said to Wang Gang, and then turned to Lan Qingyu, who was standing in the middle, and said, "Qingyu, why don't you make a compensatory first with Uncle Wang." ”
"What's not to lose?" Lan Qingyu pretended to be confused and said.
"You lost other people's spirit beasts, and you still asked what to pay for, why are you so ignorant?" Lan Jiangyao reprimanded.
"Oh, it's not a loss, it's also my fault." Lan Qingyu threw out a piece of paper, this was the contract signed during the beast fight last night.
I saw Wang Gang wave his hand, and the contract suddenly turned into ashes.
"You!" Lan Qingyu was a little angry, such an obvious scoundrel, "Oh, it turns out that your Wang family can't afford to lose, don't you go out to fight beasts if you can't afford to lose?" Lan Qingyu said lightly.
"Hehe, even your father, when Lan Tian was alive, he had to give me three points of thin noodles, not to mention the people you here." Wang Gang continued to say lightly.
Lan Qingyu was furious, but there was nothing he could do, even the patriarch and the great elder didn't speak. And Lan Pei, who was sitting on the side, was secretly happy.
"My father was a hero, and he didn't necessarily take a scoundrel with a child in his eyes?" Lan Qingyu stared at Wang Gang and said.
"Yu'er, don't talk nonsense." Qi Fei on the side stood up and interrupted Lan Qingyu.
When Wang Gang heard this, his face moved slightly, but he was also imperceptible.
"Hehe, Qingyu, you are quite similar to your father's temperament and character, what I want to tell you is that if you don't reach your father's strength level, no one is qualified to talk to me about conditions. Since none of you here have made a decision, then so be it, three million taels of silver, within three days, if you can't pay the money, marry Qi Fei, I don't blame the past, you can do it. As soon as Wang took a sip of tea, he got up and left.
"Don't worry, the money will arrive." Lan Qingyu turned around and said to Wang Gang.
The people in the hall fell silent, and they didn't take Lan Qingyu's words to heart, how could a twelve-year-old child get three million taels in three days. And Lan Pei is gloating: Three million taels, you should marry obediently.
Looking at the silent crowd, Lan Qingyu turned around and left.
Lan Qingyu has two ways to make money, the first is undoubtedly the fighting beast, the small bones are extremely fierce, and the other is the dragon eggshell.
"Isn't it just three million taels, it's rare to be a young man?"
As night fell, Lan Qingyu changed into a black cloak, took out the cicada wings, and hid in the cloak to deliberately reveal a sword hilt.
In the lavishly decorated Holy Spirit Auction Hall, a man in a large black cloak walked in, who didn't look very tall. The Holy Spirit Auction House, like the Holy Spirit Pavilion, is affiliated with the royal family, but it is not directly opened by the royal family, but through the authorization of the royal family, and it will be divided with the royal family after the transaction.
The interior of this hall is luxuriously decorated, and the layout is similar to that of the hall of the living light. There are several sofas in the middle.
"Sir, do you have an appointment?" A waiter walked over and asked politely. If you want to buy or auction items in this auction room, you need to reserve a seat.
"No, call your chief appraiser and chief auctioneer." Lan Qingyu took a sip of tea, deliberately lowered his voice and said hoarsely.
"I'm sorry, sir, but to see our chief appraiser, you need to make an appointment three days in advance." The waiter said politely again.
"Xiao Li, you go get busy first." A tall woman sat down opposite Lan Qingyu and said to the waiter standing next to her.
"Your Excellency, would you like to see our Chief Appraiser and Chief Auctioneer?" Her voice is extremely beautiful, like a trickle of water, which makes people feel happy.
Lan Qingyu slowly opened her eyes in the cloak and looked at the woman opposite. She was wearing a tight-fitting suit, the bulging mountain peaks in front of her seemed to be about to burst out, and her slender legs were bare, as if they could be broken by a clotted fat blow. The corners of her eyes curled slightly, as if with a hint of a smile.
"Damn, she's a witch." Lan Qingyu said silently in his heart, but he didn't show it, but replied lightly: "Yes, please please report it." Lan Qingyu had already guessed that this woman obviously saw the hilt of her sword and the star stone ring exposed, and felt that she was not simple.
"This lord, the slave family's name is Lin Yaru, our chief auctioneer is not here tonight, but if the chief appraiser is the case, you can wait a minute, the slave family can help you introduce you. What valuables do you want to auction? ”
"Lin Yaru? It can't be from the Lin family, right? The owner of this Holy Spirit Auction House is Lin Yan of the Lin family. Lan Qingyu thought to herself.
Lan Qingyu didn't reply to Lin Yaru's words, and sat silently, motionless.
Lin Yaru obviously guessed something: "This lord, please come with me." With that, she stood up and walked up the stairs in the middle of the hall.
Lan Qingyu stood up and walked silently behind her.
Ah, this leg is a series of 10,000 years. He had a feeling of nosebleeds, this woman was at least 1.7 meters tall, her legs were straight and slender, and she walked, her plump buttocks shook just right, neither conservative nor bewitching.
After going up to the fourth floor and entering the VIP area, Lin Yaru took Lan Qingyu into a VIP room.
"Sir, take a break and take a sip of tea. The slave will go and report it. The woman smiled and turned away.
Soon, the door opened, and Lin Yaru came in with a person. This is an old man with a white beard and no divine power fluctuations on his body, but Lan Qingyu feels a faint coercion.
"Hello, my lord, the old man is the chief appraiser of the auctioneer, and the old man's name is Clay." The old man's voice was dry.
"Look at how much this is worth." Lan Qingyu put a dragon eggshell half the size of a palm on the table.
The old man stretched out his withered hand, picked up the dragon eggshell and looked at it.
"What is this? How could I have such a peculiar feeling when I held it? Clay was slightly surprised, and handed the eggshell to Lin Yaru, "Little Ruzi, take a look." ”
"This ......" Lin Yaru just started, and a warm current entered the body along the palm of her hand, which was indescribably refreshing, "Lei Lao, I can't see anything about it, I have seen a lot of strange things, but this is the first time I have seen such a magical thing." ”
"This is the remnant of an ancient divine beast, a warrior can increase the speed of cultivation by wearing it, and ordinary people can prolong their life by wearing it." Lan Qingyu said in a hoarse voice.
As soon as the words fell, Clay's eyes lit up, "Yes, the old man has just started, and there is indeed a strange power that has penetrated into the old man's body. ”
"I haven't finished my sentence yet, eating it can transform your body and make your system and meridians as powerful as the ancient beasts."
In fact, Lan Qingyu didn't know the specific effect of this dragon eggshell, so he talked nonsense, anyway, it was eight or nine and ten.
"I don't know, sir, what price do you want to sell?" Lin Yaru put down the eggshell and said.
"Less than three thousand taels of gold, not considered." Lan Qingyu said lightly in a low and hoarse voice.
"This, three thousand taels of gold! That's not a small amount. ”
"If you're embarrassed, just leave it at that." Lan Qingyu picked up the eggshell and got up to leave.
"My lord, please stay, three thousand is three thousand, so let's leave this artifact here, and the finale auction will be held the night after tomorrow, we need to publicize it in the past two days." Lin Yaru hurriedly said.
"Okay, I'll stay here for this artifact, and I'll come back in two days, and if I can't get the price I want, I won't sell it."
"Okay, sir, you go slowly." Lin Yaru bowed slightly.
"Lei Lao, what do you think?"
"This person is not simple, the sword in his hand is at least a seventh-order divine weapon, and the ring on his hand is inlaid with a small star stone, have you noticed it?"
"I noticed that this star stone is worth a thousand taels of gold. Lei Lao, can you see the depth of this person's strength? ”
"Not at all, he stood in front of me as if it were hollow, and I had never been in this situation before. There are two possibilities for not seeing the other party's strength, one is that he brought items to hide his strength, and the other is that his strength is too much higher than that of the old man. Clay said, touching his gray beard.
"Do you think he's the second case?"
Clay didn't answer, but looked thoughtfully at the artifact on the table.
"By the way, take this to your father's, and let him see it too." With that, Clay turned and left.
