The materials of the Sifang material store come from all over the country, and there are many kinds of them, and there are a variety of styles.

Gu Beimo observed in the store for a while, and memorized the prices of most of the goods, he planned to ship them in Jiaping City, and understanding the price was the first move.

Ding Xiu was still thinking about Wen Ya's affairs, although he looked as usual when he dealt with Wen Pengzhan, it was not that he had no thoughts in his heart.

When the Wen family father and daughter lived in the camp, Ding Xiu remembered that Wen Pengzhan was very approachable, and he was gentle, dignified, gentle and lovely, and was the object of the crush of many soldiers, including Ding Xiu himself.

During that period of secret affection, seeing Wen Ya was the thing Ding Xiu looked forward to the most on his way back to the camp every day. It's a pity that all expectations have turned into dust with the departure of the Wen family's father and daughter, and his life has returned to a kind of loneliness.

This encounter surprised Ding Xiu, and his originally excited mood returned to calm because of Wen Pengzhan's coldness.

The face that has finally faded away should have been relieved a long time ago.

Ding Xiu sighed, and when his eyes were fixed, he saw Shen You's beautiful eyes staring at him suspiciously.

"Everyone is cold, you still can't forget it, you don't like that gentleness." The little girl asked angrily.

"I used to like it." Ding Xiu generously admitted.

"But aren't you going to Brilliant City to find a girl named Chen Jianing again? So which one do you really prefer? Shen You stared at Ding Xiu's eyes, his heart sour.

"I like Chen Jianing." Ding Xiu's own secret in his heart was unguarded against Shen You, and when the girl asked, he told the truth.

"Empathy, don't fall in love. Oh, man! Shen You gave him a blank look.

"I just grew up." Ding Xiu smiled and continued: "I understand the difference between liking and loving. ”

The three of them walked around the store for a while, and a waiter came over to Gu Beimo and asked, "Do you need my help introducing these materials, sir?" ”

"The venom glands and cervical membranes of the death worms, the gastropods of the mutant bullet ant queen...... Do you have any of these here? Gu Beimo quoted a few items of his own goods and wanted to inquire about the price.

"Nope." The waiter shook his head, "The types you asked about are too biased, not only do we not have them in our store, but I estimate that there are no material stores in the entire Jiaping City." ”

"That's right." Gu Beimo nodded, looking quite disappointed, he wanted to sell these materials, but the price had not been set.

The three of them didn't get much in the store, and after watching it for a while, they left.

"Let's go get something to eat." Ding Xiu proposed.

"I'm a little hungry indeed." Gu Beimo touched his stomach, he had been thinking about selling the goods in his head just now, and then he felt that his stomach seemed to be empty again.

"Okay!" Shen You exclaimed happily; "I'm hungry too, and now I see everything like it's delicious."

"Then you've reached the highest level of foodie." Ding Xiu remembered the words of the old captain Zhang Rongshe who joked about himself: "Seeing is food." ”

"Hmph, you dare to make fun of me as a foodie." Shen Youjiao snorted and glared at Ding Xiu.

"Actually, it's good to be a foodie." Gu Beimo said with a smile: "Only by filling your stomach will you not be empty." ”

Everyone walked all the way forward, and while they were laughing, Shen You suddenly pointed to a restaurant on the side of the road and said, "There are a lot of people in there, so it should taste good." ”

"Three, what to eat?" The cousin came to the door with a courteous smile on his face.

"What do you have to eat?" Ding Xiu asked.

"I'll show you the menu." The cousin took a copy of the menu and handed it to Ding Xiu.

The three of them took their seats, Ding Xiu handed the menu to Gu Beimo and Shen You, and everyone ordered a few favorite dishes.

The cousin was about to go to the back hall to place an order, Gu Beimo suddenly heard people talking about the auction at several tables around him, he called the cousin back again, and inquired with him on the side.

"What are they talking about auctions?"

"You're from out of town, aren't you?" The goatee-bearded cousin asked.

"Exactly." Ding Xiu and the three nodded.

"I know, otherwise how could the locals of Jiaping not even know about the triennial auction meeting." Tang Wei smiled, with a touch of local superiority on his face.

"This is our triennial auction conference in Jiaping City, which will be held at two o'clock in the afternoon today at the Guardian Auction House. This auction conference is one of the signboards of Jiaping City, which is jointly organized by nearly ten auction houses in the city, and it is held every three years, in order to set up a platform for the appearance of treasures. ”

"Ouch, that's good." The cousin's words made Gu Beimo's eyes light up, and Ding Xiu and Shen You were even more energetic.

The goods in their hands have been inquired about in the material store, and they are all rare things. Material stores don't dare to collect at a high price, for fear of smashing it in their hands, and they don't want to sell it at a low price, for fear of losing their old noses.

Now when I hear that there is such a good opportunity for an auction, I really doze off and someone gives me a pillow.

Listening to the meaning of this hall, the scale of the auction held at the Guardian Auction House in the afternoon was quite large, and Gu Beimo felt that this situation was very much in line with his expectations, because the buyers who went to the auction were more wealthy than those who visited the store.

"We can take the materials to the auction and sell them." Ding Xiu said: "Let's see if there is a chance to find some good things."

"That's right." Gu Beimo nodded, Ding Xiu's words coincided with his thoughts.

"Don't we just need to sell things, do we still have to buy things?" Shen You asked.

"If we come across something good, why don't we buy it, buying low and selling high is the essence of doing business." Gu Beimo flicked her forehead with a grin, "If you just keep the money, you won't let it make money." ”

When the dishes were served, smelling the tangy aroma, everyone's index fingers moved.

Jiaping City is a big city, and the people here not only have a sense of superiority over outsiders, but also have the habit of having a good face. The number of dishes on the table for three people was a little more than everyone else around, which was a good impression on the restaurant when they saw customers coming from out of town.

Ding Xiu and the three of them were very satisfied with this meal, and after they were full, they followed the location told by the cousin to find the Guardian Auction House.

Guardian Auction House is located in the most prosperous area in the east of the city, and the preciousness of the identity of the proprietor behind it can be seen that it can win such a large piece of land in the commercial area where every inch of land is valuable.

There are more than a dozen auction houses in the city, and they all come in large and small sizes, but everyone respects Guardian as the leader in the auction house.

A few years ago, there was a piece of A-grade crystal nucleus here, and no auction house had the qualifications and ability to support its auction activities at that time. He used almost all of his net worth as a risk mortgage, and joined other local auction houses to take over the auction.

The A-grade crystal nucleus was successfully auctioned out, and as for which powerful person won it, very few people know it. However, since then, the names of Song Jiade and Guardian Auction House have been played, and the Song family has been in the limelight in Jiaping City for a while.

With that experience, Song Jiade made an appointment with other peers, and everyone usually did their own business, but every three years they had to hold a big auction together, especially for those rare treasures.

His purpose in doing this was not only to build momentum for Guardian Auction House and other peers in the city, but also to help Jiaping City increase its influence. In the following years, wealthy people from other cities and even abroad quietly came to Jiaping in order to come here to hunt for treasures.

It was still early when Ding Xiu and the others found the Guardian Auction House, but there were already a lot of people outside the auction house. The surrounding streets are full of traffic, and almost all vehicles and pedestrians are constantly rushing towards this direction.

"That's a lot of people." He sighed with emotion, a little shocked in his heart.

"Damn, I'm a little excited, I'm afraid there will be a lot of good things out of an auction of this scale." Gu Beimo licked his tongue, and his excitement was beyond words.

"Ding Xiu, Lao Gu, line up here." Shen You's eyes were sharp, and he saw that many people were queuing, so he greeted them.

The three of them followed the crowd into the line, waiting to get the number. Just as I was expecting it, someone suddenly brutally intervened into the team.

The man's actions were immediately met with the eyes of the others nearby, but because of his fierce face and tall stature, everyone dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

"Line up." Ding Xiu was still feeling emotional because of the prosperity of the big city just now, but the behavior of the fierce-faced man made him as disgusted as seeing a fly on food.

There was anger in Ding Xiu's tone, because his good mood was disturbed by the man.

The male-faced man didn't seem to realize that there was anything wrong with his actions, and the cowardly reactions of others fueled his arrogance. When he heard Ding Xiu's voice, he turned his head arrogantly, "Boy, what's your business?"

"I'll just say this sentence again, line up." Ding Xiu looked at him, his eyes already glowing with coldness.

"Yo? How old are you to talk to my 'crow' in such a tone? You don't inquire about ...... either" The man called himself a "crow" and was pretending to brag about himself when Ding Xiu interrupted him again.

"Get out!" Ding Xiu's voice was like a nail smashed into the ground, which attracted many people around him to applaud from the bottom of their hearts, but no one showed this emotion on their faces, because the man nicknamed "Crow" was a well-known ruffian hooligan in the east of the city.

"Fuck you." The crow roared angrily, and smashed his fist into Ding Xiu's head.

He was queuing up to get the number on behalf of others, and he shouldn't have quarreled with others outside the court, but he was just bullying Ding Xiu for being young, and he was a new face, so he was usually arrogant and rose again.

The crow's fist stopped an inch away from Ding Xiu's head, and he blushed, but the fist couldn't go any further, because Ding Xiu's hand was pinching his wrist like an iron tong.

"Your fist is like you haven't had enough to eat." Ding Xiu's face had a harmless expression of humans and animals, and he grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "But I'm full, now I'll give you a taste of my fist." ”
