【048】If there is fate
On the second day after Shen You and Zeng Hu, who are alias You Shen, finished eating noodles, Gude Auction House is about to start auctioning many people who don't know the specific origin of the Dao but the mysterious remnant jade pieces, and this news has spread all over the streets and alleys of Quancheng like wings.
A few families are happy and a few are worried, wearing a dress embroidered gold silk on the left, and Zou Qingmei, who is wearing a rich peony with a big flower and a small thin jacket in the tender red thread, is very happy after hearing it, and her slender fingers like spring onions cover her mouth and smile, which is actually a unique style.
Zeng Hu, who woke up in the morning and had just rinsed his mouth with light salt water, squirted out the mouthwash with a blue face, and his back molars were very tight, as if he was going to chew his teeth.
There is no doubt that he is the one who wants to get the remnants of jade the most, and this move is almost like putting him on the fire and roasting him, which is the target of everyone.
According to the original communication with Shen You, who was known as You Shen, in addition to him and Zou Qingmei, there was also one person who was interested in this remnant jade piece, but at this moment, I don't know how many hidden potential forces in Lu Dao will suddenly spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and I don't know how many competitors Lu Dao will add to it out of thin air.
There are more competitors who are just a move, and what makes people even more depressed is that after this move, I am afraid that I will not be able to do anything to the outsider named You Shen.
In Quancheng, from the beginning of his own Lao Tzu to the cultivation of the wasteland, to the watering and fertilization of this land, what kind of fruit can be grown is also here.
Zeng Hu thought secretly in his heart: "Quancheng is his own territory after all, as a local snake, he can basically grasp the situation, besides, I am afraid that the only person who is really interested in that remnant jade piece is the ancient people in the rivers and lakes." These people are basically reluctant to be officials, and at most they only have some intersections with people in the officialdom. ”
When he squinted his eyes and sighed, the general idea had been formed in Zeng Hu's mind, he was basically the emperor of the soil in Quancheng, he could be civil and martial, if he could compete, then he would have a black hand, if he encountered a force that he could not compete, although the old man died, the Zeng family's control of Quancheng had declined, but the two brothers-in-law were in important positions, and it was not impossible to use.
In the past few days, millions of Luo Feng and Shen You met with Su Qingqian at the Uni Bar, and millions of Luo Feng and Fu Hongyin didn't come up with any way to get the jade tablets from Zeng Hu that night, and Shen You didn't have any good plans for a while, so he could only go with the flow for the time being.
During the exchange, Su Qingqian told Shen You about the Uni Bar, and confessed to the fact that he directly gave the Uni Bar to Shen Zhu for his own initiative.
Shen You didn't say the slightest word after hearing this, but he sighed with emotion: "This money, just a little surplus, has not been heated in his hand, and it is gone." ”
"But I want a chance, a chance that he won't help Zeng Hu." Su Qingqian continued.
"Oh!" Shen You responded very well. Obviously, he attaches more importance to this. Some people may say that Shen Zhu and Zeng Hu obviously have no friendship, for Shen Zhu, whether to help Zeng Hu or not is all his thoughts, and the promise that Su Qingqian wants is useless at all.
However, in fact, for the people in the rivers and lakes, especially the older generation, there are still some traditions that are not known to everyone, such as chivalry, such as a promise.
Shen You's fancy is not Shen Zhu's promise to Su Qingqian not to help Zeng Hu, what he likes is that Shen Zhu has already acquiesced to Su Qingqian's identity, that is to say, Zeng Hu will at least know that Shen Zhu is here, but Su Qingqian is safe and sound, and this time he can naturally confirm the so-called fact that Su Qingqian came from the Manmeng Shen family.
If we talk about the current situation, Shen You and them face Zeng Hu, even if they have been running the rivers and lakes for many years, even if Luo Feng is very good at playing knives, even if Shen You's kung fu is not bad, but against Zeng Hu, they will definitely lose.
This principle is the same as a goose egg touching a stone, the egg will break if it touches a stone, and the goose egg is large, and there is no problem with touching the egg, but if you let it touch a stone, it will break.
If at this time, other forces in Quancheng, such as Zhuye Qingzou Qingmei, such as the old thief Wang Lang Renli, if they deal with Shen You and them again, even if they deal with each other, it is estimated that Shen You and a few of them will be swallowed and there will be no scum left.
But these same people, if Zou Qingmei, coupled with the old thief Wang Lang Renli, these forces stand behind Shen You, then Shen You definitely has the confidence to dare to break hands with Zeng Hu.
At this time, what Shen You just wanted was a tacit approval from the Manmeng Shen family, if Shen Zhu announced that Su Qingqian had nothing to do with the Manmeng Shen family on the entire Quancheng Road, it was estimated that Shen You and they could only evacuate overnight. Fortunately, he didn't......
Among them, Shen You and they also got the news that Zeng Hu invited Shen Zhu to dinner, and the location was originally a five-star hotel in Quancheng, but it is said that because the old man who was with Shen Zhu liked the lotus fish in "Zhang Ji", they temporarily ate from "Zhang Ji".
I don't know what they talked about, but it is said that the food was more pleasant.
Time passes gently like flowing water, and the missed years are staggered with a flick of the fingers.
Some things, whether you like it or not, whether you want it or not, it will eventually come, Su Qingqian has made an appointment with the old thief Wang Lang Renli several times in the past few days, but he has not made an appointment.
Shen You understands that this guy is almost alive, he must have seen that Quancheng is going to be chaotic, and there will definitely be a fight, as an old fritter in the rivers and lakes, he is ready to be alone.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that the night before he went to the Gude Auction House, Qi Jun, the apprentice of the old thief king, found Su Qingqian and passed on a message very carefully, very simple, only a few words.
When necessary, we will carry a handful of firewood.
This sentence is very vague, but it is also a statement of the old thief king, and the split is very clear, when necessary, it means that he will definitely wait and see at the beginning, and it is not his business in the first place, and he naturally does not want to be a vanguard.
It's easier to understand when you hold a handful of firewood, and if you encounter a close match, he will help.
Of course, at this time, Shen You didn't bother to pay attention to whether he would stab himself if he was at an extreme disadvantage.
Because, Zou Qingmei is very active. Hatred is like a poisonous snake, tightly wrapping around her, in this world, if there is something that makes a person lose his mind, it is definitely not love, but hatred.
Zou Qingmei, who has become the head of the eldest sister of the rivers and lakes from a tabula rasa, should not be so impulsive, she has experienced a lot of things. But when the person she faced was Zeng Hu, she was not calm.
Perhaps, Su Qingqian gave her a wrong hint, she thought that as long as she charged forward in this battle, the Manmeng Shen family would definitely become her solid backing. She is for revenge, and the Shen family is for the remnant of jade.
What's more, Yang Zhuma's incident is like a big stone, which has been pressing on her heart, making her feel difficult to breathe all the time. Dragons have reverse scales, and they will kill when they touch them. And what about people?
The person who received Shen You was undoubtedly Long Bodhi, the current shopkeeper of Gude Auction House, accompanied by Suo Bingying, who had a white beard.
The filming time was set for 10 o'clock in the morning, and no one else was allowed to enter except for those who wanted to shoot, and outsiders were not allowed to participate.
The originally crowded auction hall suddenly became empty, and most of them knew each other, so there was no need for partitions and venues.
Long Bodhi stood on the stage, looked around and said: "Everyone, you have come from afar, everyone knows what is so-called, we have seen it before, it is indeed a fragment of the pious word order, and just now, after we confirmed it again, it is indeed a fragment. The owner of the fragment requests for cash payment, and the Bank will hand over the fragment two hours after the payment is completed. ”
After an opening remark, Shen You walked up to the stage with Suo Bingying, the fragments were already encased in a glass cover, and Shen You walked up to the stage with both hands very reverently.
After standing still, he put the fragment of the glass cover in front of him with both hands and said, "The reserve price is 5 million." Thank you! ”
Then he nodded to Long Bodhi, and walked to the reception room on the north side of the exhibition accompanied by Suo Bingying.
As he walked down from the stage, he saw several familiar faces, including Zeng Hu's meaningful smile at him, and the stunned look of the beautiful young woman he met on the train when he first came to Quancheng.
Of course, none of this is the most important, what makes him feel most stunned is an old friend, someone he knew when he first entered the rivers and lakes in Yanhai City.
Like the hollow valley orchid, the tranquil and elegant dragon shenger.
At that time, in Yanhai City, Long Sheng'er's subordinates pursued the young Lu Fang whom Shen You met by chance, and Shen You got the remnants of the jade piece in the dilapidated God of Wealth Temple, and then tried to find a way to put the origin of the jade piece from Lu Fang's mouth, and the old fire general Shang Hero of the Thousand Gates appeared.
It was also because of Shang Yingying, Shen You looked at Long Sheng'er and the others several times, although he didn't know what the specific names of the people who followed her in Lu Dao, but from Shang Yingying's mouth, he also knew that Long Sheng'er was from the largest gang in Shencheng - the Qing Gang.
If there is fate, thousands of people, thousands of sentient beings, meet you, but you can't speak. If you don't have a chance, you will pass by, look back ruthlessly, lonely people, but see you again.
Standing beside Long Sheng'er was still the person he had seen before, the short and fat man Mu Zhizhou, and the beautiful young woman Shui was invisible. The eyes of the three people were solemn, and they looked at the center of the stage without blinking.
"6 million!" After being silent for a while, seeing that no one spoke, the young girl she met on the train was the first to speak, and she added 1 million when she opened her mouth!
"7 million!" Zou Qingmei didn't particularly want jade pieces, but because of Zeng Hu, she added 1 million when she opened her mouth, and her smoke and eyes were flattering, and her aura was strong but soft.
Zeng Hu, who was sitting in the distance, hated itchy, but he didn't shout, he knew that as long as he opened his mouth today, Zou Qingmei would definitely stick a bar.
After several alternations, the price climbed, and at 10 million, there was finally a short pause.
Just as Zeng Hu was about to speak, the middle-aged woman next to Long Sheng'er suddenly added 5 million, 15 million!
The audience was silent, and there was a sound of needle dropping.
