225 Arrive at the Jade Capital, before the convention

"These are seven masks, after you put on the masks, they will not fall off easily, if you want to take them off, you must first soak the cloth, and then pour this powder on top of it, and then you can take off the mask. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 On the third day, Zhan Xiaoyan gave the seven masks to the two brothers, and also gave them the medicinal powder that could be used to remove the masks.

"Okay, thank you, Mrs. Yan, for bothering you! We're going to leave here after lunch, and the carriage has already been bought, so if we have the chance to meet them later, we'll repay them for both. The bamboo tube left for the two of you before, if you need help, you can also use it, no matter where we are, we will definitely arrive. Qin Yifeng spoke, and he also saw his younger brother's observation and observation of Mrs. Yan, which was a little curious and appreciative, although it was not traced, but he still noticed it.

"Good. You don't have to think that I saved you, just remember this kindness or anything, because for us, we just did what we could, and those things are nothing to us, just because we happen to have this ability, so we can help you. As long as you two live well in the future, it is enough that you don't get into trouble again! Zhan Xiaoyan could guess a few points about their thoughts, and he knew why this was the case, so he just said it.

"Okay, we won't always remember, but if Master Yan and Mrs. Yan need help with anything, please open that bamboo tube, and our brothers will definitely come, no matter how far away we are!" Qin Hanfeng took over the conversation and said. Because the brothers are going to live with a new identity, they can't contact and meet their past friends or people who are kind to them, and they must say goodbye to everything in the past before they can start a new life!

"Well, we'll use it if we need it. Then that's it, it's time for us to say goodbye, and I wish you peace and peace in your future life, and don't live it here! Yan Qihao said. At this time, it was still morning, and since Zhan Xiaoyan had already given them the things, the three of them should also set off for the jade capital, and if it was too late, they would not be able to catch up with the auction in the jade capital.

After that, of course, I drove for a while, and then I took a boat, just before August 15, and arrived in Yudu, and today is August 13. And the reason why it is said that it is difficult to get an invitation to participate in the auction is because as long as you have this invitation, you don't have to worry about running out of places to stay, no matter how late you come, no one will take up their room.

"Okay, smile, if you feel tired, just rest in your room, get a good night's sleep, and I'll get you some food." Of course, we won't buy everything in the auction the day after tomorrow, but if we really like something, in addition to buying it with silver, we can also exchange it for something of the same value, or higher than the original value of the item, which is one of the reasons why the auction in Yudu is different from other places. Yan Qihao said to Zhan with a smile what she knew, and if she really liked something and wanted to buy it, what kind of way could she use.

"Okay, I know. I won't go out casually, so as not to offend people who shouldn't be offended, so you can go with confidence! Zhan Xiaoyan understood the hidden meaning of Yan Qihao's words, and he would not go out casually, after all, when they just came in, they had already seen a lot of people, and they were not dressed simply. People who can come to this auction, no matter what kind of identity they are, must have money, so you have to pay attention to your words and eyes, don't accidentally offend people!

Zhan Xiaoyan slept until noon, and was called by Yan Qihao, and after eating, he listened to the occasional sounds around him. Although the rooms are not too small, because each room is next door, as long as you talk a little louder, you can hear it from the window, after all, it is daytime, and there are more people with the windows open.

"Smiling, we will have to eat in the hall in the evening, this is also the unwritten rule of Yudu, as long as you come to the auction, lunch and dinner in the day, at least one meal will be eaten in the hall. This is to make sure that the other person sees us and that those of us who received the invitation are here. Yan Qihao watched Chiying bring down the empty bowl and plate, and said to Zhan with a smile.

"Okay, it's okay to eat dinner in the hall, although it will be a little noisy, but you won't meet any annoying people. The people who will come to the auction are believed to be people of high status, and no one will provoke strangers. Zhan Xiaoyan agreed without objection, because it was the same wherever she ate, and she mainly wanted to see what good things were at the auction.

She didn't want to buy jewelry that had already been made, but mainly to see if there were any rough stones that had been mined, and to buy some so that she could take them back to the store to make jewelry. After all, although you can buy good jade in Beiyan Kingdom, because of the different origins, the texture or color of the jade is different, and the jewelry made will be very different.

As for the jade capital, she also knew for a long time, it was located on this island that did not belong to any country, but every year on August 15, an auction would be held, and people from the four countries would find a way to get invitations, a total of one hundred and fifty invitations, and those who had invitations could bring a companion. Although there are not many invitations, except for the hundred invitations that Yudu is willing to give, the remaining fifty will inadvertently flow into the black market, or some Qing officials who can keep them, but don't have much money, so those who want to get them can only spend a lot of money to get them.

In the evening, the couple went to the hall, because although it was an island, it was not small, and the house they built here was also divided into three floors, the first floor was the hall, the second and third floors were for the guests to stay, and then the place where their master lived was a small two-story building built next to it. Next to the two-story building, there is also a farmland, which grows some seasonal vegetables, and it seems that the owner of this island is a person who enjoys and works.

"Then I'm going back to the pot of meat, stir-fried shiitake mushrooms, fried pork ribs and loofah soup." Zhan Xiaoyan ordered these four dishes, two dishes were her favorite, one dish was Yan Qihao's favorite, and the soup was the one that both of them liked. Originally, the subordinates who were specially serving their guests went down clearly, and looked at this hall with a smile, the place that could be seen could accommodate about fifty or sixty people, and there was a box next to it, so I don't know how many people would be able to stay, I believe that when the auction starts, everyone will be here.

"Smiling face, that is, you, no matter where you are, like to eat these simple home-cooked dishes, you see, there are more exquisite delicacies here, the person next to you orders shark fin, and the person on the right table has elephant pull, these are things that can only be eaten in the palace." Yan Qihao has no objection to Zhan Xiaoyan ordering these dishes, and she prefers such home-cooked dishes to exquisite dishes.

"Home cooking has the benefits of home cooking, and exquisite dishes also have their deliciousness, but our respective tastes are also different, like me, I prefer home cooking!" Zhan smiled slightly, and said, I also knew that Yan Qihao didn't like to eat home-cooked food, but he thought of it for a while, so he said so.

The meal between the two had always been pleasant and welcoming, even though there were other people around, and their voices could occasionally be heard. But for them, just say what they have to say, occasionally have a few words with each other, evaluate the taste of the dish, or guess what kind of thing will be auctioned this time. Because in such an environment, there is no need to eat and speak, and those who are responsible for serving food and being on call must be the ones who confirm the number of people present.

"Okay, Xiaoyan, we'll go outside after eating, although it's already dark, but it's still early, so let's go outside first, and then go back to the room!" Half an hour later, Yan Qihao put down his wine glass, because no matter how simple the dishes here are, they are also full of color, flavor and flavor, and as for the wine, it is even more delicious. But he won't be greedy for a cup, because at this time, it's not suitable to get drunk!

"Okay, let's go outside! Although the island is not too big, it has a place to rest. Next to the farmland, there is a pavilion, which is open-air, and we can go and sit down! Of course, there is no objection to Zhan Xiaoyan, and besides, in such weather, it is not good to go back to the room early, as long as you bring a sachet to prevent insect and ant bites, there is nothing to worry about!

Walking out of the hall, you can see that it is not dark outside, in addition to the original starlight and moonlight, there are many lanterns hanging here, which is enough to make people see the road under their feet. And Zhan Xiaoyan noticed that there were a lot of krathongs floating on the river, and there were also candles in them, and it seemed that someone put krathong here to make wishes, and there were quite a few people.

"Smiling, do you want to put a krathong too? I just looked at it, and the Krathong floated from the entrance of the island, so I think they must have made a wish there, and there are quite a few people there, so if you want to make a wish, I can go over and get a few Krathong. Yan Qihao noticed Zhan Xiaoyan's gaze, so he carefully looked at the direction of the lantern when it first floated in, and asked.

"No, I'm just looking at the Krathong floating, and I don't have anything to wish for. If there is something you want, it is better to rely on your own efforts, not to make a wish. And even if I want to write, then I will write to my father, so the words of blessings and prayers for the deceased father and mother are not put today, it should be more appropriate in July! Zhan Xiaoyan shook his head and refused.

"Well, I think even if you could put Krathong, you would just put Krathong on the water empty, and not put what you wrote in it. Because you'd rather let Krathong float on the water empty, right? Yan Qihao was not surprised at all by Zhan Xiaoyan's refusal, and guessed what she would do if she was really asked to put Krathong!

"If you know! Because the people I care about are still around, even if they aren't all together now, but if you want to say something to them, just write a letter and let the clear sky send it back. And if it is written in the Krathong, they can't see it, so it is better to write it directly on the letter! After Zhan Xiaoyan finished speaking, he walked towards the pavilion without stopping, and Yan Qihao followed.

"Well, I didn't expect someone to come first! Aotian, it looks like we have to go back to our room for a drink! After Zhan Xiaoyan and Yan Qihao sat in the pavilion for a while, they heard a man say this. Apparently two men came over and also wanted to drink in the pavilion, so there was such a sentence.

"It's okay, Nanlin, we originally came here to drink, even if there are people in there now, we can still go in and drink, because this whole island belongs to the Tie family, and we are all just guests, so we can also go to the pavilion." Shen Aotian said, and walked into the pavilion, Zhan Xiaoyan and Yan Qihao had already stood up and were about to leave the pavilion. Because since someone has already come, they don't need to stay any longer, and it's okay to go back to the room and enter the space.

"Well, isn't this Lord Yan? I didn't expect you to be here! When did you leave the Northern Yan Kingdom? Is there something you want at this auction? But after Shen Aotian and Nan Lin walked into the pavilion, they saw Yan Qihao and Zhan Xiaoyan, and Shen Aotian recognized Yan Qihao at a glance.

"Isn't this Aotian? I didn't expect to meet you here, what a coincidence! I came with my wife, and it was because she had what she wanted, so we came here. What about you? I remember you weren't interested in these jades before, was it because there was something special at this auction? Yan Qihao was also quite surprised to meet Shen Aotian here, but since he also came to participate in the auction, it means that there must be something good this time.

"Yes, there are a few good things, such as pillows and boats made of jade, and then stools made of jade or something, even if they are not as easy to use as ice cubes, there are also warm jade suitable for winter wear, which can be warm in winter and cool in summer, and the prices are very expensive, I want to buy some for my mother and sister, so I came." Shen Aotian answered her as he sat down. (To be continued.) )
