Chapter 050: Auction
Following the little girl into Xiuzhen Pavilion, Shu Jinhua and several people looked at each other.
There is obviously only a small reception room on the first floor, and it looks a little crowded when everyone walks in. The little girl didn't let everyone stay on the first floor longer, and after taking out a small carved wooden sign behind the counter and handing it to Shu Yu'an, she led everyone up the wooden staircase.
The staircase is narrow and can only accommodate the width of one person. Shu Jinhua and his party lined up in a long line and walked up the stairs one by one.
The little girl led everyone directly to the third floor, stepping on the wooden floor of the third floor, Shu Jinhua was surprised for a moment.
The space on the third floor is a long corridor enclosed in a circle, and on the inside of the corridor are small cubicles with beaded curtains. Looking down from the gap in the cubicle on the third floor, you can see the gorgeously designed stage on the first floor. The second floor in the middle is not bad with the third floor, but it is not a partition, but a row of neatly placed circle chairs from low to high.
To Shu's surprise, the whole building has no windows, and can go from the first floor to the third floor, but it is not dark. Shu Jinhua glanced around, and couldn't help but sigh twice. This is really extravagant, the four railings of the stage on the first floor are embedded with night pearls of equal size, and on the second and third floors and the ceiling, there is a whole circle of night pearls slightly smaller than the first floor.
Shu Jinhua calculated, this building is not small, and when he counts it whole, there are almost hundreds of fist-sized high-quality night pearls. How a loser is this, to be able to use the night pearl as a candlestick......
There are obviously not a few people who have the same idea as Shu Jinhua, Shu Jinqin looked at the four largest ones on the railing on the first floor in a daze, and a trace of jealousy flashed on her face.
The little girl stopped at the door of a cubicle, lifted the beaded curtain, and bowed down to invite everyone in.
The interior of the cubicle is also luxuriously decorated, with rows of soft chairs covered with thick white fur. The wall facing the beaded curtain is only waist-high, and the upper half hangs a light gauze curtain, so that you can clearly see the large stage on the first floor from the inside, but you can't see the inside clearly.
Everyone sat around casually, and the little girl curtsied and exited the cubicle.
After a while, the maid with the refreshments lifted the curtain and entered, and after placing it neatly, she respectfully withdrew.
Shu Jinhua sits on the inside of the gauze curtain, and can clearly see the people sitting on the second floor opposite and the beautifully arranged stage on the first floor.
The reason why everyone adopted Shu Yu'an's suggestion to come to Xiuzhen Pavilion was purely out of curiosity.
In fact, Xiu Zhen Pavilion is somewhat similar to modern auctions.
Similarly, the things sold in Xiu Zhen Pavilion are all some rare treasures, and the methods are also very different, each item has a reserve price, and the lowest bid can be accumulated on the basis of the reserve price, and the final price is the highest.
However, what makes people laugh is that Xiu Zhen Pavilion not only sells items, but also receives some commissions, and these commissions can also appear in the form of auctions, and the entrusted things can be made public, and interested people can accept the commission, and if it is completed within the commission time, they can receive a good reward.
Some people who claim to be chivalrous warriors of the rivers and lakes are forced by life to accept a few commissions from Xiu Zhen Pavilion, and they can live a chic life for a year and a half.
In addition, Xiuzhen Pavilion also has protection measures for people who do not want to reveal their identities, and many of the people sitting on the second floor are people with the same clothes and masks attached to their faces. These people are people who are waiting to be entrusted and do not want to reveal their identities.
However, what attracted Shu Jin's painting the most was the treaty on the supremacy of force.
The items auctioned by Xiu Zhen Pavilion are naturally expensive, but there is a treaty that says that when there is no money to pay off, you can choose to challenge the shopkeeper of Xiu Zhen Pavilion.
As long as the shopkeeper of Xiuzhen Pavilion is defeated, the item you like will be obtained at 10% of the highest bidding price.
Such a treaty not only shows the wealth of Xiuzhen Pavilion, but also shows the martial arts of the shopkeeper of Xiuzhen Pavilion. Because in the five years since Xiu Zhen Pavilion opened, only three people have won the auction items from the shopkeeper.
Shu Jinhua is not interested in Xiuzhen Pavilion, which is full of luxury, but she is very interested in this shopkeeper.
There is no other reason, the shopkeeper of Xiuzhen Pavilion is a woman.
To be able to open a shop on Hongwu Street, the most prosperous street in Tai'an City, it is not enough to see only money, let alone such an exquisite and luxurious three-story building.
And as we all know, the shopkeeper of Xiuzhen Pavilion is not from Tai'an City, he came to Tai'an City alone, and it took less than two years to make Xiuzhen Pavilion famous.
When Shu Yu'an said that he could come to Xiuzhen Pavilion, Shu Jinhua was the first to approve. She wasn't interested in any treasures, but she had long wanted to see this legendary shopkeeper.
Xiuzhen Pavilion is the only one in the Great Xia Dynasty, and the brothers and sisters of the Chen family have only heard of it, and when they learned that they could see it with their own eyes, they all looked interested.
The auction hadn't started yet, and everyone was sitting together drinking tea and chatting. After Shu Yu'an arranged everyone, he turned around and went out for a while.
Shu Jinhua turned her back to the corridor outside the bead curtain, chatting with Chen Xi'er beside her, while pricking up her ears to pay attention to the movement outside.
"Scarlet, what's wrong?" Chen Xi'er was very interested in Bai Liushan, and was asking about Shu Jinhua's life in Bai Liushan, and found that Shu Jinhua was stunned, so she couldn't help but ask out loud.
"Well, it's okay, let's move on." Shu Jinhua smiled and chatted with Chen Xi'er.
She just heard the familiar footsteps—Qin Su. I didn't expect the dignified regent to come to Xiuzhen Pavilion, but it was not Qin Su who stunned her, but another familiar footstep beside him, Qin Shen.
Although Qin Shen is only twelve years old, don't forget, this is the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, the most powerful person!
Qin Su's uncle is really competent, not only did he take the emperor out of the city in the middle of the night to play, but now he even brought the auction to participate. Shu Jinhua secretly said in his heart, this Qin Shen is really an emperor close to life.
Shu Jinhua pouted, anyway, it has nothing to do with her, what kind of care. turned his head and continued to chat with Chen Xi'er.
But before they could talk for a few sentences, something happened that made Shu Jinhua's jaw drop in shock. Shu Yu'an opened the bead curtain and came in, followed by Qin Su and Qin Shen!
"Sister Shu! Do you want to do it? Qin Shen was obviously very excited, and shouted at Shu Jinhua as he stepped into the compartment.
When everyone saw that it was Shu Yu'an who brought in, they all had a plan in their hearts, and they all got up and saluted. Qin Su didn't plan to reveal his identity, let alone take Qin Shen, the emperor.
When Shu Yu'an introduced it, he only said that it was Su Gongzi, and everyone greeted each other, but they didn't expect Qin Su to nod politely.
On the contrary, it was Qin Shen, who rushed straight to Shu Jin's painting after coming in.
"Why did you think about coming to Xiuzhen Pavilion?" Shu Jinhua knew in his heart that Qin Shen's identity could not be exposed, so he did not salute Qin Shen, but cordially pulled Qin Shen to sit on the empty seat opposite him.
Only the three brothers and sisters of the Shu family knew the identities of these two people, and seeing that although Shu Yu'an was polite to Qin Su, he was also very casual when he spoke, so they all relaxed and continued the topic.
Qin Su sat down next to Shu Yu'an, and the two exchanged a few words. Shu Yu'an saw that Qin Su looked lacking in interest, and he was very interested in not talking to him anymore.
Qin Su propped his head, his eyes didn't know where to look through the gauze curtain, and only occasionally turned to Shu Jinhua, who was chatting with Qin Shen. Shu Jin's painting is also very keen, Qin Su can always feel it if she has a gaze.
"Sister Shu?" Qin Shen opened his five fingers, shook them in front of Shu Jinhua's eyes, tilted his head and asked.
"Huh? What the? Shu Jinhua relieved himself and asked. Qin Su's gaze made her subconsciously alert, and her whole body's attention was on that hair-making gaze, what Qin Shen said just now, she really didn't pay attention to it......
Shu Jinqi, who was sitting on the other side of Chen Xi'er, had another layer of cold sweat on his forehead, this person who dared to ignore the emperor's words, except for his own little sister, may not be able to find a second one.
Qin Shen didn't care, his face was full of yearning, and he said again with wide eyes, "Sister Shu, can I go and play with you when I have time?" ”
Shu Jinhua is a little difficult, the emperor is out of the palace, but there is a risk. If something happened to Qin Shen in the Bachelor's Mansion, it would be enough for their Shu family to die thoroughly. Agree, even if her family is in danger, don't agree, looking at Qin Shen's expectant expression and pitiful little eyes, Shu Jinhua's heart softened a little. But then I thought that this is the emperor, even if he says no, it makes him unhappy, it is also strict to the point where he can lose his head.
"This is for your uncle, your uncle agrees with you to come and play, of course I have no problem!" Shu Jinhua said with a smile. This dilemma is better for the regent to come out!
Qin Shen listened, his mouth flattened, and his big eyes were full of resentment. lowered his head and said lightly, "I know, Sister Shu doesn't welcome me." ”
Shu Jinhua almost choked on his own saliva, and covered his mouth and endured it desperately for a long time before he didn't cough out loud regardless of his image. Qin Shen's resentful little eyes are not in line with his identity! This twisted appearance, coupled with his handsome appearance that resembles Qin Su, makes Shu Jinhua can't help but think of the image of Xiaoshou imagined in the hearts of modern rotten girls.
"Oh, if it works, I don't!" Shu Jinhua hurriedly explained. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, she still underestimated this kid, she didn't cover it and didn't say anything, as if she was bullying him.
"Really?" Qin Shen raised his head, and there were actually two tears hanging from the corners of his eyes.
Shu Jinhua wanted to support his forehead, but he didn't expect that this kid was still an acting school, if he didn't know his identity, he might have been deceived by him.
"Yes, yes, of course it's true." Shu Jinhua nodded, his eyes sincere.
Qin Shen burst into tears, his big eyes narrowed into crooked crescents, "I knew that Sister Shu wouldn't diswelcome me!" ”
"I'm still crying when I'm so old, I'm not ashamed."
