Chapter 114: Meeting Gift
As soon as Long Lin opened his mouth, he threw 90,000 taels of gold to buy a treasure box, and his generous hand also made Mo'er staggered. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 But when she thought of the potential value of this treasure box, she had to admire his unique vision!
In this world, there are many rare and precious medicinal materials that can make people who take their last breath recover in an instant, and can also cure all kinds of poisons in the world. However, the rarer and more precious the medicinal herb, the shorter the preservation time. For example, the snow lotus in Tibet must be taken within half a day after picking, and if the flowers wither after a while, it will lose its medicinal effect.
If there is such a treasure box that can place the snow lotus, then the snow lotus can be taken directly when needed, instead of rushing to the Tibetan region with the patient to find the snow lotus.
Xuan Lin knew that his eldest brother had always had a unique vision, and he would sell this seemingly chicken-ribbed white jade treasure box at such a high price, there must be a reason for him. So when he heard that Long Lin threw 90,000 taels of gold, he thought to himself what Long Lin wanted to buy this treasure box for?
Thinking that the third brother Qu Tianlin has always been smart, he not only deliberately lowered his voice, but also talked to Qu Tianlin in a voice that only the people at the table could hear: "Third brother, you have always been the smartest, can you guess what is the use of the eldest brother buying such a chicken treasure box with such a big amount of money?" ”
Qu Tianlin glanced at Long Lin, who was leisurely drinking tea and waiting for his answer, then shifted his gaze to Mo'er and stopped, curled his lips and smiled: "I guess, the eldest brother bought the treasure box for Mo'er." ”
Mo'er, who was also waiting for the news, couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this: "This treasure box was given to me?!" As the words fell, she turned her gaze to Long Lin with a look of disbelief.
Long Lin smiled slightly, like a loving brother and said to Mo'er: "All the auction items, I look at Mo'er, you only have a few more glances at this treasure box, and if you like it, you must decide to auction this treasure box and give it to you as a meeting gift." How's that, Mo'er, I don't know if you like this gift? ”
Mo'er likes it, but - "This treasure box is worth 90,000 taels of gold, it's too valuable, I ...... I ......, "How embarrassed is she to take it!"
"Gold has a price, but jade is priceless." Long Lin said: "The gift I gave you is priceless, so you don't have to care about the price itself. ”
"But ......" Mo'er wanted to continue to excuse herself, but Qu Tianlin interrupted her: "Mo'er This is the eldest brother's intention, you can rest assured that your subordinates are." ”
Qu Tianlin said this, and Mo'er naturally had no reason to refuse, not only thanked Long Lin: "Then the brother-in-law will thank the eldest brother!" ”
At the same time, on the first floor, as soon as Long Lin's offer was made, Elder Jin Liu couldn't help but be stunned, and then cast an appreciative look at Mo'er and their table. His appreciative eyes were not only because Long Lin saw the value of the treasure box itself, but also because of his valuation. In order to assess the value of this treasure box, it took them nine days for the Golden Jade Merchant House to use the five elders to assess the price, but Long Lin just casually glanced at it!
"Ninety thousand taels of gold, is there any increase in price?" Retracting his eyes, Elder Jin Liu's gaze swept over the guests before he asked slowly.
But he just asked casually.
Because none of the voices in his ears, including the VIPs on the second floor, saw the true value of this treasure box, and they all said one-sidedly, the person who paid 90,000 taels of gold to buy this treasure box had water in his brain!
"No, no." On the first floor, a wealthy businessman with a big belly waved his fat hand. "Ninety thousand taels of gold are sold for a treasure box, hehe, it's really extravagant."
Before his words fell, another voice echoed: "Yes, this treasure box is a chicken rib, and it is troublesome to take it with you to keep out the cold, so it is better to use these 90,000 taels of gold to buy a few more pieces of this warm jade jade pendant to carry on your body." Listening to his tone, it was obvious that he was the one who had just opened his throat and laughed at Mo'er's offer.
Another voice sounded: "Don't look at it, it's the person who bids, but it's the people upstairs." In these years, rich and capricious! ”
The sound of discussion came to Mo'er's table, and even Mo'er heard that there were people discussing in the VIP seats on the second floor.
"I heard that the city lord of Linlang is sitting in that position. I looked at the treasure box, and he spent a lot of money, maybe it was bought for his wife. It is said that his wife is a talented woman, and the poem "Little Lotus" praising the imperial capital was written by his wife. ”
Someone immediately chimed in: ""Little Lotus", I have also heard of it, it is a very good poem. The voice was a little more appreciative.
Of course, these discussions also reached the ears of Qu Tianlin and his three brothers. They have a keen hearing, and they can hear better than Mo'er.
"Brother and sister, I have heard about it for my brother to shine on the birthday of General Yang with a song "Little Lotus". Long Lin said with a smile: "That poem has also been read by my brother, it is really good." ”
Mo'er smiled shyly, "Thank you big brother for the compliment." ”
In the end, because Long Lin's bid was too high, everyone felt that the treasure box was a chicken rib, and the white jade treasure box was auctioned by Long Lin at a price of 90,000 taels of gold.
At the end of the auction, Elder Jin Liu personally sent the treasure box over, and Long Lin also asked Uncle Mu to hand over the silver ticket worth 90,000 taels of gold to Elder Jin Liu.
"City Lord Qu, Master Long, in seven days' underground auction, please also invite all distinguished guests to appreciate their faces." After Elder Jin Liu counted the silver tickets and put them in the hidden pockets of his cuffs, he made a warm invitation to Qu Tianlin and Long Lin with a smile on his face.
Qu Tianlin came to Tiandu at this time, and he was bound to auction the phoenix tears, one of the finales of this underground auction, so he naturally went back. "Elder Jin Liu, rest assured, this is a rare event, we will definitely arrive on time." Qu Tianlin replied.
"That old man will wait for the arrival of the city lord and the dragon lord when he arrives." Elder Jin Liu laughed.
After bidding farewell to Elder Jin Liu, the group went back to the Qu clan's other courtyard in Tiandu.
Compared with the magnificence of the city lord's mansion, this courtyard is very appropriate and elegant in terms of flowers, trees, herbs, rockery, ancient benches, and flowing water clear pools.
Qu Tianlin's courtyard is in Zhanxiangju, and when Mo'er and Qu Tianlin arrive at Zhanxiangju, Chenshuang, who came back first, has already prepared hot water for her. After Mo'er bathed, Morning Frost also laid out the futon for her, lying on the soft bed, and Mo'er soon fell asleep.
When Qu Tianlin came out of the bathroom, he could hear her even breathing.
He had just come out of the shower at this time, and his hair was still dripping with water, so he casually dried it with a cloth towel. Qu Tianlin walked to the side of the bed, bent down and pecked Mo'er's lips, and said with a doting face: "I slept so soundly, it seems that I am really tired." Then you can get a good night's sleep. ”
"Morning Frost." Out of the bedroom, Qu Tianlin called Chenshuang over. (To be continued.) )
