A group of small magnates chatted while shopping, talking and laughing.

The big girls and little daughters-in-law in Kyoto City hurriedly avoided as if they had seen a plague god.

"It seems that the image of this marquis needs to be changed urgently......"

Seeing this, Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly.

Fu Di didn't care, and while walking, he told Zhu Ping'an what he meant.

He got the news that Nian Gu Zhai, the largest antique trading house in Kyoto City, was going to hold an auction today, and among those lots, it is said that there is an ancient jade, which was given by the Ming Emperor of the previous dynasty to the most favored Zheng Guifei.

Not to mention the value of this ancient jade itself, the three words Zheng Guifei alone have made countless antique collectors rush to it.

However, for Zhu Ping'an, what is the Ming Emperor Zheng Guifei, he doesn't dare to be interested at all. It's just that if there is a good ancient jade, it is really worth taking a look, and he has other uses.

"Little Hou Ye, that's what Concubine Zheng has wore. I heard that the little lady's skin is very good-looking, and she said that it is a flower and a month, a fish and a goose......"

Fu Di said seriously, "Today you go and buy it and give it to Miss Apple, wouldn't it be a good match?" ”

"Yes, yes, there should be a fresh script in the Kyoto City teahouse and wine shop, called the little marquis who threw a thousand dollars to give away a red face, which is today's story."

Lan Xian also echoed with a smile on the side.

Zhu Ping'an knew that the entire Kyoto City now thought that he was on good terms with Xiao Apple.

He didn't explain, and said in a low voice, "It's good, but it's a pity that the old man has been strict recently, and this marquis has some ...... at hand, and it's not very convenient." ”

Zhu Ping'an is also telling the truth. There is still pocket money of a few thousand taels of silver on weekdays, but listening to what Fu Di said, I am afraid that there are many people who take a fancy to this ancient jade, and I am afraid that it will not be cheap.

"What did the little marquis say? These idle silver, our brothers can still take it out. As long as the little marquis can take a fancy to it, you don't need to pay a tael of silver, let's buy it, do others dare to compete with us? ”

As soon as he said two sentences, Fu Di's smug face was undoubtedly exposed, and he had already thought of buying and selling.

The rest of the group chimed in.

Zhu Ping'an said in his heart, it would be good if he could get a piece of ancient jade for nothing, but he said with a smile on his face, "Our own brothers, how can we let you break the bank?" The heart has been understood, the heart has been understood......"

…………

When a group of people came to take Nian Guzhai, a familiar guy immediately greeted them and led them to a small two-story building.

The decoration of the building is antique, which is very in line with the three words of Nian Gu Zhai.

Zhu Ping'an had some doubts in his heart, shouldn't the waitress who entertain the guests at the auction be pouting and backwards, why are there a few thin young men here?

Fu Di didn't know what Zhu Ping'an was thinking, so he took the lead in front of him, led everyone up to the second floor, and entered the private room facing the auction table downstairs.

Everyone drank tea and chatted, and in less than half an hour, the private rooms upstairs and the scattered seats downstairs were full of guests, and the auction officially began.

Walking onto the stage was an old gentleman in a long robe and coat, with long hair and chest-length hair, which was quite a bit of fairy wind and bones.

Zhu Ping'an knew that this was the old shopkeeper of Nian Guzhai.

The old shopkeeper Hong first saluted the audience with a fist, and then began to preside over the auction.

Today's lot is not only the ancient jade of the concubine, but also other antiques.

The things that come out of Nian Gu Zhai are naturally extraordinary. However, Zhu Ping'an and the others were only interested in that piece of ancient jade, and they were bidding for other things, and they didn't participate at all, just drinking tea and chatting and telling jokes.

The auction lasted for nearly two hours, and all the lots were auctioned, leaving only the concubine Guyu.

Today's gains are quite abundant, the old shopkeeper Hong is in a good mood, and a hint of a philistine smile also appeared on the face of the fairy wind bone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please look at the stage."

Shopkeeper Hong cleared his throat and tore off a piece of red cloth covering the auction table, "This jade phoenix is what Concubine Zheng wore five hundred years ago. ”

The crowd followed his gesture and let out a burst of exclamations.

I saw a beautiful wooden box on the auction table, which was covered with the best Suzhou embroidered satin, and a palm-sized jade pendant was placed on it.

The whole piece of jade is as white as mutton fat, carved into the shape of a phoenix, and on the edge of the jade pendant, there is a fiery red color, which just means that it is a fire nirvana.

This jade pendant alone is the best of the best, not to mention that it may have witnessed the eternal love between Emperor Ming and Concubine Zheng.

"Without further ado, if you are interested, take it home and taste it slowly. Reserve price, 18,000 taels of silver......"

Shopkeeper Hong is well versed in the way of auction, and as soon as he whetted everyone's appetite, he immediately called for the price.

"The reserve price is 18,000 taels ......"

"Yes, just now Brother Fang took a picture of the true handiwork of the former dynasty Wu family, and it was only nine thousand seven hundred taels ......"

"How can it be compared, this is Concubine Zheng's personal thing, maybe there is her fragrance......"

Seeing that the reserve price of the auction was so high, there was a sudden noise in the auction hall.

Just when everyone was still smacking their tongues, they heard a crisp shout from the second floor, "Eighteen thousand taels." ”

Before everyone had time to see who was the first to shout the price, another voice came from the private room, "I said that the old shopkeeper Hong, this price has been shouted, why don't you drop the hammer?" ”

Shopkeeper Hong was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart, "The auction house has always been a rule, after bidding three times, no one will bid before the hammer falls." This is just the first time to ask for a price, where do I fall? ”

The rest of the people were also stunned, and said in their hearts, did this person not understand the rules, or did he deliberately make trouble?

So all eyes looked at the private room in the middle of the second floor, and under this look, the old shopkeeper Hong suddenly secretly complained, and said in his heart, "Why did you provoke this little ancestor?" ”

Among the guests who came, they were about to open their mouths to reprimand a few people who didn't understand the rules, and when they saw these people on the second floor, they immediately closed their mouths tightly, for fear that a word would accidentally come out.

It was Lan Xian who made the bid just now, and on a cold day, he shook a folding fan and stood at the door of the private room on the second floor, smiling proudly.

And those who shouted the hammer, except for Fu Di's little grandfather, how could there be others? He was displeased, staring at the shopkeeper Hong on the auction table, thinking that he was falling the hammer too slowly.

Lan Xian and Fu Di, one sang and the other harmonized, this posture clearly wanted to eat the concubine Yu Pei alive.

"You two are too picky, and you directly shouted the reserve price, so you can add a few taels of silver to others......"

Zhu Ping'an shook his head with some disdain.

He didn't show up at all, just sat on the pear blossom wooden chair next to the coffee table, crossed Erlang's legs, and leisurely knocked melon seeds.

"I said, Old Man Hong, is your mallet falling or not?"

Fu Di was obviously waiting a little impatiently.

"This ......, this ......"

The sweat on the forehead of the shopkeeper Hong immediately flowed.

Drop the hammer, he is really unwilling, with his years of experience, it is estimated that this piece of jade can be auctioned at least more than 40,000 taels. With this drop of the hammer, 20,000 taels of silver were missing.

Don't drop the hammer, such a little gentleman is not a master to be messed with, if you are not careful, you may even have to ride this eighteen thousand taels. What's more, even if he doesn't fall under the hammer, I'm afraid that no one will dare to come out to bid.
