Chapter 471: Meeting is fate
When the tomb of King Liang was excavated, although Cao Shuo was at the scene, he did not count everything.
There are a lot of inconspicuous things, and he is not impressed.
When the man uncovered the red cloth, there was a sigh at the scene, and Cao Shuo only pursed his lips slightly.
"Childe, what's that?" Sitting on the third floor, looking at the things on the high platform, one of the guards asked in a low voice.
"It's just a set of drinking utensils." Cao Shuo said: "There are many such things in the tomb of King Liang, and this set is very common. ”
When the steward and Cao Shuo were talking, the guards were present.
The guard asked again, "How many copper coins can this set of drinking utensils be sold for?" If you enter Lingyun Pavilion, you have to give a lot of money, and the people who came today have lost a lot. ”
"You don't know what an auction is." Cao Shuo smiled: "Don't look at this thing as inconspicuous, I may not be able to sell it for a sky-high price for a while." ”
"This set of Liangwang wine bottles, the starting price is one hanging." The man shouted: "Is there a bid?" ”
Someone held up a sign and shouted, "I'll hang it." ”
"Seven hundred big bucks." As soon as his shout fell, someone immediately raised the price.
Immediately after that, someone raised the price, and soon the bid for the wine set had reached ten hangs.
"Childe, there are really so many fools." A guard said: "A set of drinking utensils, it won't take long for the price to increase to ten hangings......"
"It's going to go up." Cao Shuo smiled indifferently.
"Fifty hanging!" A crisp voice came from the hall on the first floor.
There were too many people in the hall, and Cao Shuo didn't see who made the bid after looking for a long time.
"Fifty hangs once." The man on the high platform shouted: "Fifty hangs twice, is there any price increase?" ”
After waiting for a while, he shouted: "Fifty hangs three times, congratulations to this Excellency, you bought King Liang's wine utensils at the price of fifty hangs!" Later we will send someone to deliver the drinking utensils to the house. ”
"I'm not from Xudu." The person who bought the wine utensils stood up: "If you buy this wine utensils, you will leave Xu Du, you should give it to me now." ”
The man standing on the high platform was stunned and looked at the audience.
The steward in the audience nodded.
"Your Excellency, wait a minute." Only then did the man say: "I'll arrange someone to wrap it for you." ”
"Childe, there is something strange about this person." A guard whispered to Cao Shuo.
"You see that, too?" Cao Shuo asked.
The guard nodded.
"See what's wrong with him?" Cao Shuo asked again.
"I just feel that something is wrong, but I don't know what is wrong." The guard said with a frown.
"She's a woman." Cao Shuo said: "And she is a rich young girl. ”
"Let's go, go out with me and wait for her." Cao Shuo stood up.
Several guards were puzzled, not knowing why Cao Shuo went out to wait for a woman, but they still followed him out of the private room.
The people of Lingyun Pavilion were busy packing up the wine utensils for the woman, and even the steward didn't notice Cao Shuo and the others leaving.
When he arrived at the door, the man who was guarding outside saw Cao Shuo coming out, and hurriedly stood up and asked, "Childe is leaving?" ”
"Tell the steward, it's good." Cao Shuo said: "In the future, I will follow his arrangement." ”
"And!" He added: "Let him send the polished water jade to my residence, and if I am not in Xudu, I will give it to Mrs. Zhen." ”
"Don't worry, Childe, I've written it down." The man answered.
After explaining to the man, Cao Shuo did not leave immediately, but stood outside the door of Lingyun Pavilion as if waiting for someone.
The man didn't dare to ask more, let alone sit down, so he could only stand with him on the side.
"Childe, do you want to sit down?" After waiting for a moment, the man asked cautiously.
"No, you can sit down." Cao Shuo glanced at him and said casually.
The man answered, but how dare he sit down in front of him, so he had to stand there with him.
After a while, the woman who bought the wine utensils walked out of the Lingyun Pavilion.
The woman was dressed in a dark coat and dressed as a man.
Since it was winter, her clothes were very thick, and it was really impossible to tell that she was a woman from her body alone.
Passing by Cao Shuo, she seemed to take a look at it unintentionally.
Just glancing at it, she quickly looked away.
Her movements were very subtle, and she was still grasped by Cao Shuo.
"Your Excellency, stay." Cao Shuo shouted.
Holding King Liang's wine utensils and about to get on the horse, when she heard Cao Shuo calling her, the woman turned around and asked, "Are you calling me?" ”
When the woman turned her head, Cao Shuo was stunned for a moment when she saw her face clearly.
Although she was dressed in a man's clothes, her pretty face could not be changed.
With bright eyes and bright teeth, a sharp-eyed person like Cao Shuo can tell at a glance that she is a woman dressed as a man.
Even if you don't have good eyes, when you see her, you will definitely think that she is a beautiful young man.
"The one who took the picture of King Liang's wine just now is the honorable driver?" Cao Shuo asked.
"Exactly!" Holding the wine utensils tightly, the woman's brows furrowed slightly, and she asked Cao Shuo, "What are you asking for?" ”
"I'm the original owner of this drinkware." Cao Shuo said: "Actually, I like it very much, but the army is short of money, so I took it out and sold it." ”
"If it's worth it, it's not even worth half a penny." The woman said, "Do you want to tell me that it costs fifty hangings, and it is very cost-effective for me to buy it?" ”
"What I'm telling you is that it's not even worth half a penny." Cao Shuo smiled: "This is not the place to talk, can you change the place, I invite Your Excellency to drink two glasses." ”
"I'm not familiar with Zunjia, so I won't bother!" The woman refused.
"My son-in-law invited you, can you still tolerate you not to agree?" A guard behind Cao Shuo glared and said.
"Say what?" Cao Shuo stopped the guard: "A humble and virtuous son like me, after you make such a fuss, won't he become a gentleman who picks quarrels and provokes trouble in the market?" ”
"Childe's lesson is that I was wrong!" The guard who scolded the woman bowed his head in response.
"My subordinates are all rough people, and there is a bit of a collision between words, your Excellency is not strange." Cao Shuo arched his hand to the woman and said: "As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person, I kindly ask Zunjia to drink two cups, if you refuse, it is really embarrassing." ”
"I don't recognize Your ......Excellency," the woman refused.
"Then I'll introduce myself." Before she finished speaking, Cao Shuo said: "My name is Cao Shuo, I am the second son of the Cao family, dare to ask the name of the Gao surname?" ”
"My surname is Don." The woman said: "Nobody, let's not talk about the name of Pingshui." ”
"Come on, wait for Mr. Tang to get on the horse!" No longer asking whether the other party agreed or not, Cao Shuo instructed the guard: "I ask Mr. to go to the Moon Tower!" ”
"Childe, I'm really in trouble." The woman surnamed Tang was surprised and said, "If there is fate, I will drink with my son......"
"Fate is actually very delicate." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "If you meet, it's fate, and if you can't catch it, you have no fate." Now that I have met Your Excellency, and I see Your Excellency as very pleasing to the eye, of course I can't let fate slip through my fingers! ”
