Chapter 17: Yonghe Auction (Part II)
The people who entered this auction house today are all people with heads and faces, usually they meet and smile, even if they hate each other, they have to pretend to compliment, but today is different, as long as the people who grab the auction with him are all enemies, and the two sides have a tacit understanding to keep silent and not say any words when they face each other.
It's time to apply, boom! The little servant picked up the hammer of the gong tied with red silk cloth and struck it vigorously on the gong. The whole house began to be silent, as soon as the gong sounded, the time had come, and today's Yonghe auction would kick off.
A man with a hunched camel walked on a pole with a cane on a raised table with a tiled panel on top of its four corners, all of which were erected vertically to support the entire tabletop, all of which were empty in the middle. In order to prevent fraud, shoddy.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Wang Quan, little old man, Wang Quan will preside over the auction for you today, and the auction house has relied on everyone's support to get to the present, thank you in one fell swoop. Wang Quan hasn't been here for many years, and today's auction is not well received, and I hope everyone Haihan. Wang Quan's voice was hoarse and low, but his voice penetrated the entire venue at the same time, so that everyone could hear it one by one.
"President Wang is polite, this time I am very fortunate to be able to participate in the auction that you personally presided over." A family master said respectfully to the people on the stage. When he finished speaking, everyone agreed.
Wang Quan's hand stretched out forward, and his palm gently swayed up and down: "You all know the rules of the auction house, in order to ensure the vital interests of various guest officials, Wang Quan reminds again, please carefully read the manual distributed by the maid next, which also has a general introduction to the goods auctioned tonight." ”
After speaking, the maids waiting on the side set out one after another, lifted the covers on the tray in their hands, and distributed them one by one.
Everyone took the small brochure distributed by the maid, with a puzzled face, usually auctions, are to inform the details of the auction in advance, this time most of everyone is to collect the paper under the dagger, only to know about the third floor of Yonghe auction mandarin ducks.
"Everyone read carefully first, Wang Quan is here to explain to you one by one." Wang Quan picked up the small manual, "Since the time of this auction is urgent, in order not to disappoint everyone too much, the auction house will also discharge a few pieces of treasure in the box." In order to be fair, this booklet has been made, and you can focus on it according to your liking! ”
"Next, the auction house will inspect the table in front of me. Representatives should also be sent to check whether the table is normal and whether there is any mechanism. A quarter of an hour, ladies and gentlemen, please! Wang Quan waited on the other side of the table, the maid wearing gloves and carefully inspecting it. After a while, the guest officers in the audience also went to check, and there was nothing abnormal on the table.
"Now that everyone has finished checking, I announce that the auction house has officially begun. Please have the first treasure: sapphire blue jade. ”
A maid put the box containing the blue blue jade on the table in her heart, "The blue blue jade, the manual has a basic introduction, it is an orchid cultivated by Master Tianyi himself, when it is in full bloom, it will emit a little royal blue light, like the royal blue jade flashing, named the blue blue jade, its floral fragrance is very light, but it does not disperse for a long time." At this time, the heat is very hot, and it is the flowering period of the flower. Wang Quan opened the box and removed it, leaving only a pot of sapphire blue jade. I saw that the orchid was about to bloom, and the small blue flowers were clustered, emitting a flashing light.
"It smells so good. Do you smell it? One of them asked the people around him.
"Starting price: 1,000 taels, each increase is fifty taels." Wang Quan stood beside the blue blue jade. "Three, two, one, the auction begins."
"1050 taels," a girl held up a sign and shouted the price.
"1500 taels" another man raised a card.
"1500 twice a time, does anyone still raise a card?"
The man in the black hat asked Ru Jing, who was sitting next to him, "Do you like it or not?" ”
"Yes, girls like beautiful things."
"Oh, I see." He held up a sign, "Five thousand taels." ”
Everyone looked at him, this man is afraid that his brain is not good, so expensive to buy potted flowers.
"This guest officer is out of 5,000, and there is no one who wants to increase the price, 5,000 twice." Wang Quan paused, and saw that no one was raising the price of "five thousand for the second time...... Five thousand taels, the third time. Boom, congratulations to this guest officer on the successful bidding. ”
"The second auction item is warm jade, everyone heard it right, there are three pieces of warm jade known in the world, as for which family's hands, Wang Quan doesn't know, this piece of warm jade is entrusted by the owner of the jade to us to bid, but there is a condition, barter."
"What does he want?" The crowd began to make noise.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry, listen to me carefully." Wang Quan took out the piece of warm jade, "The jade pendant is of high quality, and it is said that the collection of three pieces is the key to open the treasure." As for where the treasure is, there are many legends in the world, and the client sent a message about the treasure for free. What the client wants, ten years of macaroni, a hundred years of purple lotus rice, and lantern fruit. Multiple bidders can be bid, and the consignor will be selected by hand after the details are detailed. ”
Wang Quan informed the client of the items needed one by one, and everyone in the audience sighed for a while, macaroni in the past ten years are rare, not to mention the century-old purple lotus rice, lantern fruit, what is this purple lotus rice and lantern fruit?
In the private room, Meng Yanzhi just saw the auction of warm jade from the booklet, he knew that Ruyan's sister had a piece, and the piece he took out was different from his sister's piece, but this client bartered, and the lantern fruit in exchange for something he had never heard of, the macaroni in the past ten years has always been a healing elixir, as long as there is still a breath left, the macaroni can stabilize life in the past ten years, protect the heart, and there are more macaroni births, all of which are one or two years, and it will be even more difficult to take ten years. Hundred-year-old purple lotus rice, also only seen in the Qizha Lu book, a hundred years of flowering, a hundred years of fruit, before the fruit of the flower path and leaves and ordinary lotus flowers, when forming a lotus plate, absorb the essence of the sun and the moon. The efficacy of the goods is not described too much in the book, and the author does not know. But I haven't heard of this lantern fruit. This warm jade was finally born, and it was difficult, so I had to find a way to send a piece to my sister.
"Zhou Shen, raise the card." Meng Yanzhi reminded Zhou Shen, who was eating wine on the side, Zhou Shen raised his head, "You really want this, except for the macaroni I know, I haven't heard of anything else." That's it, accompany you through this mess. ”
Zhou Shen raised the card, and Wang Quan saw, "Okay, this guest officer is qualified to participate in the auction." Is there anything else? The other private room was raised again, "Okay, this guest officer is also qualified." ”
The man in the black hat elbowed Ru Jing, who was sitting on the side in a daze, and Ru Jing asked, "What's wrong with Childe?" ”
"Do you like the jade girl?"
"Legend has it that after wearing warm jade, the woman's body will become more and more gentle, I don't know if it's true, just from the jade pendant, the woman will like it, but this warm jade is a hot potato, and no woman wants to wear it!" Ru Jing looked at the jade pendant in the stands, this jade pendant is a little familiar, as if she has seen it?
The man saw her staring at the jade pendant, and raised the card again, and Wang Quan said again: "Congratulations to this guest officer." ”
Everyone turned their heads to look at him, this son was dressed in black, but he didn't expect that he was also a powerful person, just when Zheng Qianjin bought potted flowers, he participated in the auction of warm jade. Think about it carefully, have you offended him, will you be retaliated against? I saw that the people who disliked complaining at the beginning avoided their eyes and lowered their heads.
"Are there any other guests who want to participate in the auction?" Wang Quan looked around and saw that no one raised a sign, "Next, the third auction item is the self-defense weapon forged by the powerful Lin family at that time, the Lin family a hundred years ago was a famous weapon forging family at that time, the weapons they forged, let the Yongguo force value rise a lot, and the land has also expanded, and now the master of the Jianghu Alliance has a sword forged by the Lin family in his hand, which sharpens iron like clay, and can be long or short according to the user's mind, soft or hard." The former Lin family has disappeared from everyone's sight, and the art of forging has disappeared together, today's auction of this item is a collection of this auction house, it is a self-defense weapon, this auction house has never been opened, I don't know how to use it, in order not to let it be dusty, let it appear today, but Wang Quan has a small request, the successful bidder, if you know how to open this weapon, can you let me see it? The price of this lot is set by the guests, and the price is high. ”
"Five thousand taels."
"Five thousand five hundred taels."
"Seven thousand taels."
The price soared, Ru Jing watched quietly, I really don't know what these people think, a weapon that can't be opened, and so many people want, "You want it?" ”
Ru Jing shook her head, "I haven't opened it, what if it's fake, spend a bunch of money to buy a rag, do I have water in my head or have nowhere to spend money." ”
"Haha, that's what the girl said." The man's fluttering words made Ru Jing feel defensive, "If the girl wants it, I'll give you a few pieces another day, it's definitely better than this." ”
"Childe is polite." Ru Jing stopped talking, and looked down at the booklet in her hand.
The man was puzzled for a while, it was scared of her, the first time someone was not afraid of me, and the woman who was so close to me, you have to not let me down!
"Fifty thousand taels."
"Miss, do you want it? This may not be what is rumored. Waiting for Ru Wanwan, the maid on the side, Lang Mei looked at the price of the girl just to raise the card.
"The Lin family, but a family that makes me curious, I finally ran into it, how can I let it not belong to me?"
"That's what Miss said."
As soon as the price of 50,000 taels was reported, Ru Jing followed the voice to see which one was wronged, which was good, but it turned out that it was her good sister, and she met the eyes of the maid Rongmei, and quickly turned her head. "It's over, it's been discovered."
Seeing the second miss sitting below, Lang Mei quickly turned around and reported: "Miss, the second miss is also here." ”
"This lively place, she didn't come, I think it's strange, let people stare at it, don't let that straw bale spoil my business!"
"Yes." Lang Mei hurriedly ordered to go down.
"Miss Ru, you are a delicate girl, you are not embroidering at home, and you are also bidding with a large group of people here, I am afraid that the old man of the Ru family will feel embarrassed if he knows about it." The fat-headed and big-eared man in the private room next to him stared at Mimi.
"Miss, this?" Lang Mei was anxious for a while, Miss's reputation couldn't be ruined like this.
Ru Wanwan signaled not to act rashly, and heard the man on the other side sneer: "You can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, Miss Ru is also what you fat pig thinks, she was rejected a few times, if it was me, I would have been hiding and gone, and I am still here to speak out, I think it is you who lose people." Miss Ru, she is polite. ”
Ru Wanwan saluted in the air, "Thank you, Childe." ”
The fat head and big ears turned red, and threatened the little student: "You wait for me." ”
"This rabbit has to bite people when he's in a hurry, it's just a fair word from Xiaosheng, and he still wants Haihan."
"Fifty thousand taels a time, but there is a price increase?" Wang Quan reminded.
"Sixty thousand taels, Miss Ru, can I take a picture of it and send it to you?"
The whole venue sighed for a while, this Miss Ru was charming, and she smiled for the beauty, which said that 60,000 taels could buy something that could not be opened. Howe, Howe.
"Childe is polite, this is too precious to bear."
"With the assets of a beauty, this thing can be favored by the young lady, that is its blessing."
"Yanzhi, you're not talking, this beauty is someone else's." Zhou Shen watched it with relish.
"What's so good about the White Lotus, pretending." Xuanyuan Hong stumbled.
"In your eyes, even women think it's ugly, so I won't talk to you more."
"Is this thing real or fake?" Meng Yanzhi stared at the manual and looked at it carefully.
"You're interested again, I don't have any money!" Zhou Shen looked at Meng Yanyi's face, "If you want to give it to Miss Ru, I have money." ”
"Get out!".
"Sixty thousand taels once, but there is still a price increase?" Wang Quan asked again, "Sixty thousand two times, sixty thousand two or three times." Boom, this lot belongs to Childe. ”
