As the auctioneer of this sale, Xiao San placed a tall table in front of him, with a palm-high bronze bell, a delicate and small golden hammer, and an hourglass.

He picked up his hammer and tapped it on the bronze bell, and a thick and ethereal sound of the bell rang out, and everyone unconsciously fell silent.

"The first auction of Bright Moon Villa starts now. The first lot, a bottle of Wenyang Pills. There are ten in the bottle. Wenyang pills have the effect of nourishing qi and blood, and can continue to warm people's bodies, and the medicinal effect is mild, and can be taken by men, women and children.

"The reserve price is 998 taels, and those who are interested should write the price on the bamboo stick and submit it to the maid. The time is based on this hourglass, and when the sand inside has completely settled, you are no longer allowed to participate in the auction. ”

He turned the hourglass upside down, and the sand began to leak underneath.

The time for the sand to drain is 3 minutes, and 3 minutes will not give everyone much time to think.

And Shen Yizhi wants this effect.

Sure enough, seeing that the sand kept leaking down, the would-be bidders panicked, and hurriedly wrote the price on a bamboo skewer and put it on the plate held by the maid.

First, Shen Yizhi was a little bored, and the three of Qingbao were impatient to stay here, so they went to play by themselves. If not, she can also make a plate of babies.

"Boredom?" Gu Xueting's voice sounded in his mind.

Shen Yizhi looked down to the left, Gu Xueting leaned lazily on the armrest of the low couch, holding the wine glass in his hand, turning it carelessly.

A pair of eyes fixed on her.

At this moment, she actually had the feeling that Xuan Ting appeared in front of her, but his eyes were indeed black.

Could it be that Gu Xueting was influenced by Xuan Ting? Or has Xuan Ting's devouring of Gu Xueting begun?

Shen Yizhi's heart jumped, but his face was not obvious, and he shook his glass at him, "Yes." ”

In the next moment, she saw Gu Xueting walking towards her.

She was about to stop it, but saw that Gu Xueting was still sitting in the same place.

What's going on?!

Doppelganger? Or is it illusion?

Shen Yizhi found that he couldn't tell the difference.

Xuan Ting just walked up, sat down next to her, stretched out his arms, and hugged her to his lap and sat down. Others are unaware.

"You...... Don't make a fuss. "So many people are watching.

Shen Yizhi didn't dare to move too much, for fear of being seen.

Xuan Ting took a sip on her face, and her voice was as mellow as wine, with a sultry drunkenness: "What are you afraid of, they can't find out." Isn't it boring to know, isn't it good for me to accompany you? ”

"I'm ......" Shen Yizhi opened his lips, but it just gave him an opportunity to take advantage of.

And in the eyes of everyone, the two of them happened to be sitting in their places, watching the auction in the field.

After three minutes, the sand in the hourglass was gone, and Xiao San placed the bamboo sticks of the bidders on the high table, and then sprayed them one by one with the potion, and the handwriting on it was revealed.

At the same time, this scene is also presented on the projection stone.

The price is clear at a glance.

The highest price was given by the person of Geng, 5899 taels. It was only 11 taels of silver higher than the second highest price.

Geng was sitting on the top of Wen Daoming.

Xiao San picked out his bamboo stick separately and rang the bronze bell: "Congratulations to this guest, this bottle of Wenyang Pill is yours." ”

Wen Daoming immediately received everyone's attention.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be the highest price. Brother Chu, I conceded it. He arched his hand at Chu Bitao, who was diagonally opposite. There was a little smug in the smile.

That's right, the second highest price was made by the perfumer Chu Bitao, who was only 11 taels lower than Wen Daoming, and missed out on this lot.

Wen Daoming was very open, "It's okay, there are a lot of good things in the back, I have enough silver tickets, and I can always buy what I like." ”

At this moment, Wen Daoming couldn't laugh anymore.

Because it suddenly occurred to him that he didn't bring much money with him when he went out this time!

What can I do?

After the auction of the item, you do not need to pay immediately, but wait until the end of the auction to pay for it and take the goods in one hand.

Otherwise, Wen Daoming will face the dilemma of having no money to pay the bill at this moment.

Taking the opportunity to go to the toilet, he quietly asked the maid who led the way: "Cough, this, the old man came out in a hurry, and he didn't have much cash on him, can your village be accommodating?" Of course, I will never pay the bills. ”

The maid took the opportunity to recommend the Great Banyan Foundation to him: "Mr. Wen, our villa can provide loan services." ”

Hearing this, Daoming immediately raised his vigilance, this Mingyue Villa still wants to take the opportunity to lend usury?

However, after listening to the maid's detailed explanation, he realized that this was not a loan shark, on the contrary, the interest rate on the money borrowed by the foundation was very low, and it also supported repayment in installments.

Don't even pay interest for the first month!

And so good?

The maid smiled and said, "Do you think our owner will ruin his reputation for temporary profits?" ”

Wen Daoming shook his head when he thought of the various treasures he had seen in the villa.

"Okay, you can take me to see it."

There is a branch of the foundation in the villa, which is a small courtyard, and there is an old vine with a thick bowl mouth on the east and west sides of the courtyard, which is twisted and knotted, and the vines climb all over the courtyard wall and roof, and hang down from the eaves, naturally forming a green curtain.

On the curtain, it is dotted with purple, pink and white fireworks-like flowers, which are beautiful and fresh.

As soon as Wen Dao Mingfu stepped into the courtyard, he was moistened by the greenery on his face.

After entering, the guy carefully introduced him to the various businesses in his store.

When he returned to Chunmingtang, he already had 100,000 taels of silver tickets in his pocket.

He couldn't help but reach out and touch his chest, and the stack of silver tickets was lying in the inner pocket of his chest at this time.

It's also sad to say, although he is a jade carving master who has already become famous, he makes a lot of money, even a lot, and any piece of work can be sold for thousands of taels at a high price. But it was the first time he had so much money in his pocket.

Who called him a strict wife? The wife of the family was too strict, and he was never allowed to take too much money in his hand, saying that he was afraid that he would buy jade for a while.

He was hot-headed when he found good jade materials, and he didn't spend a lot of money, which he had to admit.

So he has now developed a good habit of going out with only a little pocket money in his pocket.

But he had seen the auction book, and there were several pieces of superb jade on it, as well as two jade carvings that had been lost.

One of the amphora ox head jade cups, with half-moon shaped ears, shallow belly, flat bottom, decorated with embossed cloud patterns on the outside, but also carved out of the cow's head with high relief techniques, and the rest of the small details, but also with round carving, openwork and other carving techniques.

The overall decoration is beautiful, exquisite atmosphere, and the jade quality is rich and moist, which is a rare boutique!

If he can get this jade cup at auction, maybe he can study the lost carving technique.

Therefore, you can't go without money in your pocket.
