Chapter 212: Auction
The Wang family's cloth shop in the inner city of Luodu for the nobility has now been transformed into a small auction hall under the personal supervision of Wang Ziyao.
The design of this auction venue, Xiao Mo did not copy the appearance of the auction in later generations, but considered the living habits of the powerful at this time, and designed this auction hall to look a bit like a theater in the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Xiao Mo just gave a plan, and Xiao Mo didn't care about the rest at all, Xiao Mo knew very well that Wang Ziyao was better than himself in this regard, and he didn't know how many times.
The location of the auction of the Divine Wood was placed in the Wang family's shop, which made the rest of the families a little envious, after all, the Divine Wood was not an ordinary thing in their eyes. There is a lot of psychic aura left everywhere, and the Wang family has the honor to auction the psychic 10,000-year-old divine wood this time, which is really a rare opportunity.
However, this is only the opinion of the magnates, in fact, neither the Wang family nor Xiao Mo thought of this.
Xiao Mo knew that the Shenmu was precious, but at that time, he didn't realize that the magnates were so convinced of the Shenmu psychic, which made the meaning of the Shenmu completely different.
And Wang Zhanpeng agreed to Xiao Mo's request at that time, and immediately began the work of renovating the auction hall, and it was not Xiao Mo at that time. Rather, it was purely from the perspective of helping Xiao Mo.
Of course, Wang Zhanpeng is still very happy about his luck, Wang Zhanpeng even thinks that if Wang Zhiming marries a wife in the future, and his future daughter-in-law is pregnant, he can live here.
Xiao Mo didn't think about it so much, Xiao Mo felt that the sooner this auction was completed, the sooner he could make the difference.
The person who presided over this auction was not Xiao Mo himself, but a well-known storyteller in Luodu. This one was also specially arranged by Xiao Mo.
As for why he invited a storyteller to preside over this auction, firstly, Xiao Mo felt that this kind of eloquent person had seen the big scene, and he would not be timid in the face of a group of powerful people when the time came, and secondly, the storytellers were all masters of bragging and invisibility. I can often tell some myths and legends and see them with my own eyes. This sacred tree itself is also quite mythical at this time, and it is very appropriate to use this kind of person as the host of this auction.
The most important thing is that Xiao Mo's current identity is not suitable for being the host, what Xiao Mo should do is to accompany a group of powerful people, and Xiao Mo doesn't know as much about the legend of Shenmu as others tell stories.
An opening performance of mythological allusions, coupled with the boasting of the storyteller, the auction of this sacred tree is naturally even more hot. It is often a copper that can shoot thousands of times for the most ordinary sacred wood.
Xiao Mo didn't care about such a scene, and the expression on his face was completely different from that of the excited magnates.
Xiao Mo knew very well that the proceeds of the Divine Tree that were put up for auction would eventually fall into the treasury, and no one knew whether it would be used for military expenses. Anyway, Xiao Mo can't get so much copper himself, and at most he will give Xiao Mo a vain title.
And more Divine Trees, Treasure Divine Trees and those few Emperor Trees, said to be handed over to the treasury, Xiao Mo felt that they would definitely end up in the Yang family's private treasury.
Xiao Mo is completely coping with the task of this auction, and those powerful people are fighting for the red-faced treasure Shenmu. In the end, the imperial court also rewarded Xiao Mo with a whole tree, and as for the other 10,000-year-old divine trees and ordinary divine trees, there were many of them in the treasure house of the Xiao Mansion. In addition, Xiao Mo knew that the divine wood was only ebony formed by carbonization, so Xiao Mo did not have much interest in the auction of this divine wood.
It's just that there is one thing that makes Xiao Mo very unsure of what to do.
This is obviously the position that has been arranged in advance, and who sits in which position in which direction is all arranged according to the identity of the magnates.
However, some people moved some of their seats privately after the auction was halfway through. These people are not others, one is Xiao Mo's nominal uncle Xie Hongwen, one is Xiao Mo's cheap second uncle Xiao Lecheng, and the other is Wang Zhanpeng.
Originally, the auction was going well, and Xiao Mo was also dealing with the task seriously, but Xie Hongwen, the head of the Xie family, transferred Xie Wanqing to Xiao Mo's right hand. Xiao Mo was finally able to face Xie Wanqing calmly, and now it's okay, Xie Wanqing sat next to him all of a sudden, so that Xiao Mo really didn't know what to do.
Wang Zhanpeng naturally saw such a scene, and with a cold snort, he switched Wang Ziyao to the left and right of Xiao Mo. As soon as Wang Ziyao sat down, Xiao Mo and Xiao Mo were really gathered together. made Xiao Mo nervous all of a sudden, and he was sweating profusely.
Others don't know Xiao Mo's mental activities, and the younger generation is full of envy for such a situation. This is Luodu Shuangzhu, it can be said that the two most outstanding among the young generation of women in Luodu today, just sitting next to Xiao Mo left and right, who can not envy?
Only Wang Zhiming had a frightened expression on his face at this time, and Wang Zhiming thought that if he put himself in that position, he would be directly frightened. This is definitely not a blessing, but torture, even suffering.
Wang Zhiming knows his eldest sister too well, what kind of temper his eldest sister is, Wang Zhiming has felt it deeply over the years. As for Xie Wanqing, Wang Zhiming also knows very well that this is definitely not a simple woman.
What's more, Wang Zhiming knew that his eldest sister and Xie Wanqing had always been opposites, and they were born incompatible. sat beside Xiao Mo one on the left and one on the right. Wang Zhiming could only silently pray for his brother.
When Xiao Lecheng saw that Xie Hongwen and Wang Zhanpeng had done such a shameless thing, he was instantly unhappy in his heart, why? After all, Si'er is also from the Xiao family, my Xiao family hasn't said anything, what do you mean by your strength one by one? So, Xiao Le set up a horse and arranged Xiao Feixuan and Xiao Feiyu to sit in front of Xiao Mo.
Such a scene fell in Wang Zhiming's eyes, and Wang Zhiming could only pray silently for Xiao Mo in his heart.
Xiao Mo is really tormented at this time, not to mention Wang Ziyao and Xie Wanqing on the left and right, even the sister sitting in front of him is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Among these four people, except for Xiao Feiyu, who is more honest and honest, the other three, Xiao Mo and Xiao Feixuan are difficult to handle.
Xie Hongwen and Xiao Lecheng's plan, Xiao Mo knew very well in his heart, it was nothing more than to rush to the auctioned Shenmu and want to play the emotional card. (To be continued.) )
