Chapter 91: Yancheng Auction
Hongji took out two invitations and handed them to the doorman. The doorman who blocked the way was a rough man, with tanned skin, calluses on his hands, and knife-like eyes, looking murderous. "It's a veteran!" Ah Man narrowed his eyes and thought to himself. After the doorman took the invitation, he checked its authenticity. He handed the invitation to Hongzhu again, looked up at the two of them carefully, "Let's go in!" ”
Hongji took the invitation, threw it into the storage bag, and walked into the auction. Ah Man looked up at Hongji, she was wearing a mask on her face, and she couldn't see any expression, but seeing her sharp eyes, Aman knew that Hongji was in an unhappy mood.
"Little master! Do you want revenge? Zhu Xuanyu in the enchantment bead, with a hippie smile, transmitted his divine sense to Aman.
"Avenge your sister, shut up!" Ah Man refused unhappily.
"Alas! Be kind to the donkey's liver and lungs! Zhu Xuanyu looked like a hanger, which made Ah Man hate itchy.
"Come with me!" A waitress walked over, goose-faced and dressed in yellow fir, of medium build, with a standard smirk on her face.
Hongji and Aman glanced at each other, and then followed the waitress. Rounding the ring road, the waitress walked into the auction hall with the two of them. There were eight more steps in the venue, and the waitress took two people to step on one of the steps and enter a private room. The box has no door, only a curtain hanging at the door. The waitress lifted the curtain and bent down in a gesture of please. "Please, two of you!"
Hongzhu was not polite, and walked into the box. There is a coffee table in the middle of the box, and two Taishi chairs are placed next to the coffee table. The Taishi chair was facing the auction table outside. On one side of the room, there is also a Bogu shelf with some decorations on it. Otherwise, there are no furnishings. Ah Man pursed his lips and sat on the Taishi chair against the door. Hongzhu sat on the other Taishi chair. Xiaobai was well-behaved and lay next to Aman.
There was a spirit fruit and spirit tea on the coffee table, and the waitress picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Ah Man and Hongzhu. Neither of them drank tea, but Ah Man picked up a spirit fruit and ate it. The other people who were watching the entrance outside were also brought to their respective positions. Some were brought into the private rooms, and some were brought into the seats inside. Hongzhu sat quietly and did not say a word.
"Two distinguished guests! But what's the need? The waitress stood behind the two and asked softly.
"Take a copy of the album from this auction." Ah Man looked around and did not find the catalogue of the auction that was introduced.
"Okay." The waitress took out two picture albums from the storage bag, handed one to Ah Man, and then handed one to Hongji. The two took the album and looked at it.
Ah Man looked very carefully, after all, it was the first time he had seen it. Hongzhu saw it quickly, she had seen it before. Looking at it again this time, I just want to see if there is any change.
I waited for an hour before the entrance was over. The auction box was full, and there was not a single empty seat in the venue. Ah Man looked lively, ate the spirit fruit, and ate several plates of fruit plates in a row. The waitress looked at Ah Man's appearance with disdain on her face. I even wondered if the invitation was sent by mistake.
At this moment, a gong sounded. It was a coarse cloth boy in black, who appeared with the sound of a gong. He was followed by an old man, and behind the old man were two maids, holding a tray covered with red cloth. The auction hall immediately fell silent.
"Hello everyone! The old Wanshan is the host of this auction. First of all, on behalf of the auction, welcome everyone to come and join us. The old man clasped his fists and saluted.
The applause of the guests below was thunderous and resounded for a long time. Wan Shan is a well-known auctioneer in Yancheng, as long as he is present, there is no goods that cannot be auctioned.
"Good! Without further ado, let's take a look at the first lot today. As he spoke, the old man turned around and lifted the red cloth on the tray in the hand of the maid on his left.
