287 Family

"By the way, how are the preparations for the auction in August?" Uncle Wu changed his words and asked about the auction.

August, referring to a VIP auction in the third quarter of the underground auction, this time the Wu family attaches great importance to it.

In the underground auction, the Wu family is one of the 'shareholders' and dividends are distributed from it. Every year, the Wu family can distribute about 500 million yuan in dividends from it, which is a huge amount of money, and Wu Zhengying, the third uncle of the Wu family, is the representative of the Wu family and comes forward to participate in the management.

For many 'shareholders', underground auctions not only represent a steady stream of huge annual profit dividends that they cannot give up. What's more, there are some amazing secrets that cannot be told that make them want to stop, and most of these secrets are in the hands of the head of the family, which is the highest secret.

For example, the old man of the Wu family knows the secret of Lu Dao. However, he has not told his three sons about it yet, but he has only asked them to maintain their awe of the underground auction, and they must participate in it with all their might, at all costs.

The three brothers of the Wu family did not understand this brainless order at first.

However, they found that the old man had instructed him, and the rest of the families with a long family inheritance did the same, and everyone kept it secret, doing the same thing, and trying their best to participate in the underground auction. Gradually, the leaders of the second or third generation of the family became aware of the mystery of the underground auction and acquiesced in this act.

Once a year, anyone can participate in an ordinary underground auction as long as they pay enough for a lifetime membership fee of 5 million yuan. From time to time, good things appear in the auction, which attracts many rich people to participate in the auction.

But. This annual ordinary underground auction is nothing to the 'shareholders' at the level of the Wu family, and there is no sense of mystery. Because most of the items in this ordinary auction are sold by their 'shareholders', and occasionally the 'finale' lot is given from above.

So. The settlement and operation of ordinary auctions and VIP auctions are relatively independent.

There are only VIP auctions four times a year, and some of the things in them are real treasures, and they are all priceless. For this reason, the families also traded with each other, and they also participated in the auction.

Because there are a small number of finale lots that have been given from above, to mortals, they are like fairy treasures, such as the 'elixir' that prolongs life. The 'elixir' that drives away the disease and has an immediate effect, the 'elixir' that enhances the function of a certain aspect and does not recur, etc., are the main finale items, and a random pill is given in each issue. But for too many people, this grain is far from enough.

What does the 'elixir' portend?

The Wu family is a family with hundreds of years of inheritance, although there are not many people today, but the inheritance is complete. Some of the records in the family secret books mention one thing, there were immortals on the earth in the past. Immortals can fly to the sky, their mana is boundless, and their longevity is endless, they can refine the pill, and the effect of the pill is incomparable. This coincides with the 'elixir' that appeared in the underground auction, because they believe that mortals cannot make alchemy.

There is a 'elixir'. Naturally, there are 'immortals', and the person in charge of the 'VIP auction' in the underground auction is a mysterious, high-ranking senior manager. But it is said that there is even a person in charge at the top above, but no one has ever seen it.

The hearts of mortals seeking immortality and ethereal immortal fate have never been silent, so Old Man Wu treasured these secret books as treasures and regarded them as the family's top secret.

Let the three sons care about the underground auction, let the third uncle of the Wu family participate in the construction of the underground auction with all his heart, especially strive to get to know some high-level personnel, the intention is here.

One day, I can meet with the 'immortals', find the immortal fate, and make the Wu family a family of cultivating immortals...,

Many families, like the Wu family, are also holding their breath and harboring the same dreams.

And this VIP auction in August is said to be very heavy, and there may be a lot of heavyweight items at that time, but it is still unknown what it will be.

——

"Big brother, it is said that there are three finale items this time, all of which were given from above!" Wu Zhengying said in a low voice.

Although there are guards outside the courtyard, this matter is something that many high-level officials don't know about today, so we have to be careful about it.

Once the secret is leaked, it will inevitably cause chaos, and it will not benefit everyone.

"Three?!There will be so many of them this time?There is usually only one!" Uncle Wu was taken aback.

"That's right, the last time there were two finale items at a time was ten years ago!" Wu Zhengying nodded excitedly. "However, this time it is said that there is an important person coming down, and it may be an important person in the upper echelons, so the finale items are only three at a time!"

Uncle Wu looked at the boss. The mysterious upper echelons are finally making an appearance?

"Is this true?"

"I'm sure!" I just received a notice from Elder Mu, and it seems that Elder Mu attaches great importance to the person who is coming!" Wu Zhengying said. "Elder Mu is already a high-level person, and has presided over many VIP auctions, but this person is very difficult to deal with, very arrogant, everyone has hit a wall, as soon as it is over, Elder Mu's whereabouts are uncertain, no one knows where Lu Dao lives, this time there are important people in the high-level above, it is a good opportunity to get acquainted!"

"That's what the third brother said!"

It's just that the question also comes, what gift to get acquainted?

Treasures! Come to think of it, there are only enough treasures!

The brothers thought of the same place, whether the person who came was a man or a woman, old or young, and they didn't know what to do. But the treasure is what everyone likes.

The Wu family also has a lot of priceless items, but they are all vulgar things, and I am afraid that they will not enter the eyes of others.

It's just that it's not so easy to find something extraordinary.

"What ideas does the third brother have?" Uncle Wu was a little embarrassed. It's a hard gift to find!

"I don't have a suitable gift to give, so I can't do it, so I can only spend money to find a precious medicinal herb that is old enough, which is something that the senior management also likes!" Wu Zhengying said analytically. "The old man mentioned that the old commander Xiao in the capital had a great birthday, and he recently got a superb century-old ginseng, which is said to be of excellent quality. It's not easy to see such a thing, why don't you come to the door and ask for it? Anyway, it won't be of much use in the hands of the old Xiao family!"

The Xiao family is not a family, nor is it a 'shareholder' in an underground auction. Instead of being an 'insider', you need to see the people at the top. Even if there are medicinal herbs, there is no way.

In this way, the Xiao family's possession of this ginseng is really chicken, it is better to change it to the Wu family, and the Wu family has to owe the Xiao family a big favor.

"The old man has to get out!" the uncle of the Wu family groaned and sighed.

About two hours later, Mr. Wu woke up.

As soon as the brothers told the old man, the old man attached great importance to it, and said, "Then I'll go." I owe Lao Xiao a big favor!"

Early the next morning, Mr. Wu got up, and it was rare to leave the courtyard and visit Mr. Xiao.

The two belong to the same generation. It's also recognized. However, Old Man Xiao was born in the army and achieved a high position, while Old Man Wu was in politics and also retired from a high position, and the relationship was not far away.

Chinese history. People who have always been engaged in politics and the military, especially those in high positions, have rarely come into contact with each other, in order to avoid suspicion. It's long since he retired. This is much less scrupulous.

The old man of the Xiao family lives in a compound where the retired head of the Military Commission lives, and there are many retired old generals here. Lieutenant generals, generals, and even the head of the Military Commission. It was very lively for everyone to live together. ...,

The children of the Xiao family once suggested that the old man should simply live in a big villa, but the old man Xiao refused.

When Mr. Wu came over, Mr. Xiao was in a small flower garden, carrying a kettle to water the flowers in the yard, his hair was gray, but his waist was very straight. There is also a beautiful woman who looks like she is in her twenties next to her, it is the granddaughter of Old Man Xiao, Xiao Biyun.

Xiao Biyun returned to the capital for a few days this time, firstly, to give ginseng to the old man for his birthday, and secondly, to come to the capital to have something to do. After that, she has to go back to Xiqin and preside over the listing of health care products.

"Lao Xiao, your life is leisurely enough!" As soon as Old Man Wu came in, he immediately smiled and quipped.

Old Man Wu ignored him and concentrated on watering the flowers, and Old Man Wu was also thick-skinned and didn't feel left out at all.

"Wu Lao sit down first, I'll pour you a cup of tea!" Xiao Biyun smiled slightly, turned around and went to serve tea.

"Xiaoyun, just take the worst tea leaves and brew them!" At this time, Old Man Xiao spoke.

"It's so good, grandpa!" Xiao Biyun pursed her lips and smiled, naturally she didn't listen to her grandfather's words.

Old Man Xiao put down the kettle and came out.

"Old man Wu, you want to take away the good things that your granddaughter honors me with a favor, how can there be such a cheap thing!" Old Man Xiao snorted and sat down at the table. Just before you came to the door, I received a call from the Guo family, the Wang family, and the Xu family, all begging for this ginseng!"

Old Man Wu was anxious: "Old Xiao, did you send things out of the city?"

"Send it, think beautifully!" said Old Man Xiao with a blow of his beard and glaring. "This is a good thing for my granddaughter to honor me, thinking that I am short of that little money?

This said that Old Man Wu was relieved. As long as you haven't sent it out yet!

The three companies I just mentioned are also the 'shareholders' of the underground auction, and together with the Wu family, these four are the only four 'shareholders' in the capital.

The Guo family also has people in high positions, but the Wang family is the home of giant businessmen, while the Xu family is relatively special, it is the family of kung fu, and many martial arts halls have been opened around the world. As soon as Old Man Xiao said it, he didn't make it clear, and Old Man Wu knew who Lu Dao was talking about. Because one of the Xiao family is a VIP at the auction, it is possible to know a little bit of the inside story after a long time.

"Old Xiao, if you have any conditions, just say it, as long as I can do it-" Old Man Wu smiled bitterly and sighed.

The heart said, "I may have to vomit blood." Obviously, this old man Xiao can't look down on money, and he can't do it even if he has a small favor, it must be a lion's big mouth.

It's June now, and it's only two months until August, and the Wu family doesn't have enough time to prepare gifts for that 'adult', and this time there can't be any mistakes, and they will admit it at a big price.

"Okay! Just your old Wu is a happy person! I only have one request, once I have the opportunity in the future, I must introduce the Xiao family to the high-level of the auction, which is a quota!" Old Man Xiao finally showed a smile and said simply. "Okay, you can take this medicinal herb, don't pay a penny, no, just when my old Xiao didn't say it!"

When Old Man Wu heard this, he couldn't help but change color.
