Chapter 216: The Auction Begins
Good day, Su Niangzi. The person behind it is really Su Xiaoxiao, I haven't seen him for a few days, and he is still so beautiful. Li Chen couldn't help but be fascinated for a moment, but quickly replied and said hello.
'Good day, Li Jun. Seeing Li Chen's lost mind, Su Xiaoxiao was proud for a while, Ye Lao said that her beauty plan was invalid, who said that it didn't work, isn't it good? However, seeing that Li Chen recovered quickly, he was unhappy for a while.
'Who is Abdullah?' Li Chen picked up the topic just now, just now he looked at the venue and saw the reaction of the guests, Su Xiaoxiao came over and said a word coldly.
Now at the buffet venue, there are about 20 people, some of whom have taken the food and are chatting with others. But not everyone was like that, several people took a plate of bread and ate it desperately. I didn't have enough to eat, and I shared it with others.
Don't blame them, they didn't sneak into the venue to call them a child, nor were they stingy and deliberately didn't eat to eat here. Instead, Li Chen spread some cream and cheese on top of the bread. Bread, as mentioned earlier, Li Chen soaked the fruit pieces in water and let them sit for a few days to get natural fruit yeast.
Fruit yeast bread, a food that has not yet appeared in this era, and some cream and cheese are coated, the taste is really irresistible, no wonder they will lose their temper, Li Chen remembers that he instructed people to make a plate of tasting products for the Su family father and daughter to taste.
Su Laiman and the Su family housekeeper are okay, Su Xiaoxiao tasted it and was full of praise. And then... He made another good job, and wanted to take it back to taste some bread for each of the children in the family, but he was robbed by Su Xiaoxiao.
Like now, Su Xiaoxiao also saw the guests who were tasting fruit bread, her pretty face seemed to be a little distorted, and she lowered her head and said, "I actually lied to me that there is no more, wait a minute to make them look good." ’
'What? What did you say? Li Chen didn't hear it clearly, so he asked, "No, no, I didn't say anything." Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly denied, "By the way, that's Abdullah", Su Xiaoxiao pointed to the corner of the banquet hall, and one of them was dancing.
Of course, Li Chen can't all use the buffet form, there are many other kinds of entertainment. For example, there are a lot of musicians in the corner, playing and singing, some people clapping and singing, and some people dancing.
'Abdullah? "I just don't dance that now", Li Chen looked at Su Xiaoxiao's finger, and saw a middle-aged man who was dancing happily just now, and now he doesn't dance, it turns out that it is Abdullah.
Hu Ren, with a deep nose and high eyes, blond hair and blue eyes. Corrected, only blonde hair can be seen from such a distance, and the blue eyes are Li Chen's own brain. I saw that he was of average height and had a darker complexion, which could be regarded as wheat-colored.
"If your father gives you the right information, you can slaughter him today." Li Chen looked at it twice and stopped looking, it was Suleiman's enemy, not his.
The auction began. Li Chen saw Steward Su come out with a small gong in his hand, and he knew that today's auction was about to start, "By the way, doesn't your family believe in Muhammad?" Why don't you hold an auction at your own church? ’
Then what can be done, that Abdullah, who has drawn a lot of people against it, can only do it here. Su Xiaoxiao said helplessly, originally Suleiman wanted to borrow their ****** church to do it, but Abdullah tried his best to oppose it, and in the end he could only handle it in the Zoroastrian temple.
However, today Suleiman should be glad that he borrowed the Zoroastrian church, which has a lot of influence in the Tang Dynasty, and of course their Zoroastrian shrine is also very large, but many people have come today.
Ladies and gentlemen, the auction is about to start, if you don't attend, please go back, and if you want to participate, please enter. The gong sounded three times, and the housekeeper of the Su family shouted, for fear that people would not hear it, and a servant next to him repeated it in a louder voice.
Then Li Chen's eyes widened, and finally he didn't go outside, the guests and their female companions had to go inside, and then the servants began to pack their things. Li Chen also followed into the venue.
In the venue, it was originally just an ordinary open space, but now it is arranged in a staggered manner, with a row of world cushions in front, but there is a backrest behind it, even if you kneel and sit, you can relax, not to mention that this is a group of rich people, who really don't care much about maintaining face
I don't like to sit on my knees, the second row is the chair, some distance from the first row, to ensure that you can't kick the person in front of you even if your legs are stretched out.
Compared to the second row, the third row has more people and a larger range, and the third row is also chairs, but the chairs are all elevated, and again, there is a certain distance from the front row to ensure that you don't kick the person in front.
Personally, he sat down according to his preference, and Steward Su also explained, shouting that the tallest and shortest position does not represent identity, mainly because he was afraid that everyone would not be able to see the auction items clearly.
Li Chen can't help it if it will be like this, I'm afraid that people won't be able to see it clearly. In modern auctions, there are slides that can be projected, otherwise you can see the photos beforehand. But now, there is nothing but to ensure that everyone can see it.
It's so basic, it's so basic. Li Chen was backstage with Suleiman, and they were arranged to pour tea and water in the front for a few hours. Li Chen regrets that he was not able to promote his own tea by the way today. The main reason is that Wei Xuan hasn't come back yet, and even if he does, he won't have time to prepare.
'Simple? There is indeed a point. But it's a makeshift arrangement, and that's pretty much it. Different from Li Chen, Suleiman was a little excited, as a businessman, a businessman who had listened to Li Chen's explanation of the auction process, he felt that the auction had too many business opportunities, and now it was not easy to do it, and when the official acceptance results were obtained, he couldn't help but be excited.
No, I didn't mean that, forget it, let's cross the river by feeling the stones. In Li Chen's view, all this is too simple, for example, there is no VIP box at the venue. You should get a VIP seat, so that the maintenance cost of the VIP seat alone is enough to earn from the auction.
Wait, wait, wait. Li Chen looked at the backstage, a host was ready to go on stage, today's host is Zhao Duanduan, when Li Chen said that he wanted to invite someone to host the auction, Suleiman had to think of Zhao Duanduan. Just now, Zhao Duanduan had been in the background, preparing something, and did not go to the front to greet others.
'Ladies and gentlemen, I have the honor to preside over this ingenious auction today, and if you don't host it well, please do more than that. Zhao Duanduan presided over the stage, said a word, knocked down the gavel, and announced the start of today's auction.
Li Chen quietly observed everyone's reactions, in his opinion, this host Zhao Duan is not qualified, whether it is suitable or not, whether it is appropriate or not, the host of the auction has two words, and now he can only pray. (To be continued.) )
