Most of the people in the banquet hall are the Chosen One, and after becoming the Chosen One, most of them will strengthen the ontology, although the strengthened ontology is far less powerful than the carrier's hearing, but Cheng Mo and Stern did not deliberately turn down the volume when they spoke, so the vast majority of people in the banquet hall heard the conversation between the two clearly.

At this moment, Stern King certainly noticed that Cheng Mo was looking at his wrist, and there was no doubt that it was a clear reminder. Thinking that his Uloporos hadn't been brought back yet, Stern King fell silent, and he stared at Cheng Mo deadly, trying to read some information from Cheng Mo's expression and pupils.

For example, what is the relationship between this little ghost named Cheng Mo and Lin Zhinuo, such as Cheng Mo's status in the Taiji Dragon, and why does Cheng Mo support Napoleon VII so strongly.....

All the guests present had a strong interest in the Huaxia nobody who dared to fight with the consul of the Star Gate, Stern Kim, even if no one thought that Cheng Mo could fight Stern King, who was known as the jackal, from the dialogue, it was obvious that the Huaxia nobody knew who Stern King was.

"This may involve the battle between the Star Gate and the Taiji Dragon, and I guess Napoleon VII and the Taiji Dragon have joined forces. ”

"It's very likely, it is said that Taijilong suffered a secret loss from the Star Gate in Greece and suffered heavy losses......"

"If that's the case, then it's even more impossible for Stern Kim to give in, if it's Xie Guangling, Stern Kim may be a little more restrained, but this is called Cheng Mo..... It's just a kid..... Maybe it's just that the young man can't breathe....."

"Anyway, his opposite is Stern King, not to mention the ranking of the Heavenly List, he is the consul of the Star Gate in Europa, although the Taiji Dragon is strong, it is impossible to be the opponent of the Star Gate, even Napoleon VII did not dare to say anything, he did not have the strength to stand up like this, it was just a humiliation. ”

The people sitting at the table with Cheng Mo did not open their mouths to discuss, but they also had the same thoughts, and Daeva was so anxious that she wanted to speak three times and twice, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only look at Napoleon VII with eyes asking for help.

Napoleon VII saw that Stern King had fallen into silence, and did not seem to have settled into silence as he imagined, so he planned to wait and see what happened.

Stern King's sudden silence made Joseph realize that things were not so simple, he picked up the wine, shook the crystal wine glass with one hand, and held the mobile phone under the table with the other hand to type the message, asking his subordinates to quickly check what the identity of this person called Cheng Mo was.....

As for Athena, she is still a high-level observer, but she is a little more curious in her heart, curious about what the result of this collision with obvious differences in strength will be.

It's just that the current Stern King is not as relaxed as the Europa nobles think, his mind is spinning a thousand times, and at this moment he is looking at Cheng Mo's determined face and is a little dilemma. French Iris didn't give him any news, and kept saying that in the investigation, it was obvious that he wanted to offend both and let Xingmen and Taijilong solve it themselves.

And although he was sure that Uroboros was snatched by Taiji Dragon's people, Taiji Dragon did not admit that he had no way to force him back at the moment, and he had to grab Taiji Dragon's handle or something enough to exchange.

Stern Kim felt that Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun bumped into his muzzle, Xie Minyun's identity was too noble to move, it didn't mean that this little ghost called Cheng Mo couldn't move. Maybe this little ghost in front of him is the breakthrough, so Stern King sneered: "Are you threatening me?"

Cheng Mo could read from Stern King's expression that Stern King was testing him, so Cheng Mo shook his head and replied without leaking: "Threaten? What do I threaten you? Didn't you call me my niece-in-law? Is it wrong for my uncle to make a little contribution to my niece-in-law's charity?"

Stern King spread his hands and said, "It's a pity that my uncle doesn't have such a large sum of money with him, and he can't help you, you should ......talk to a friend, like Christophe!"

Unless Stern King hadn't said it yet, Cheng Mo pretended to be ignorant and asked: "Since Uncle Stern doesn't have 500 million, why is the price so high, and if I don't ask for it just now, what will you pay for?"

Seeing that Stern King made a mistake in his busyness, the people around him also laughed, and Daeva's smile was especially exaggerated, not ladylike at all, even Athena curled the corners of her mouth.

Stern King was stunned for a moment, he didn't think much about it when he said the last sentence, because he didn't think about paying at all, but now that he broke the matter out, and was questioned by Cheng Mo in public, it was inevitable that his old face was slightly red, fortunately, Stern King has always been shameless, ignoring the ridicule around him, and said confidently: "My face is worth 500 million, take down the painting first, and then give it slowly." ”

"Then please ask Uncle Stern to give me your face, and I'll ask Mr. Joseph for 500 million euros, isn't he the crown prince of LVMH? Cheng Cheng said it really.

"Your Uncle Stern's face will be given to you?" Stern King couldn't find any valid information from Cheng Mo's words, so he stopped trying and threatened coldly, "You have to give me a reason..... Otherwise, I'll be looking for trouble with you Taiji Dragon people, believe it or not, I'll call you Team Leader Xie right now..."

Xie Minyun was ashamed to hear Stern King say so loudly, and said coldly: "Forget it, Cheng Mo don't say it, we will go out first for five hundred million and one dollars, and we will come back twice as much when the time comes." ”

Cheng silently immediately stood up, turned his head and urged the auctioneer who was standing on the stage in a state of confusion: "I'm sorry, you haven't dropped the hammer yet, please hurry up and end the auction of this painting, I can pay." ”

The auctioneer standing on the stage came to his senses, first looked at Napoleon VII, saw that Napoleon VII did not say, hesitated, shook his head and sighed that he didn't understand the world of local tyrants at all, it was incredible to buy a painting worth up to three million for 500 million, he swung his hammer, knocked the first time, and shouted loudly: "500 million and one for the first time!"

The hammer rang for the second time, and the auctioneer thought that this was the most outrageous auction he had ever encountered, and no one would believe it when he said it, so he mustered up his strength and shouted: "Five hundred million and one pieces for the second time!"

The ending was as everyone expected, but it disappointed everyone, everyone still wanted to see a different plot, and wanted to see the disgusting Stern King slapped in the face, but the difference in strength was really huge.

As the guests shook their heads, Stern King shouted "Wait" and then raised his auction plate to stop the auctioneer from dropping the hammer to end the auction, "Wait!"

Xie Minyun said that Stern King couldn't help but change his attitude, he knew Xie Minyun's status in Taiji Dragon, and knew that Xie Minyun would definitely be able to influence Taiji Dragon's decision-making, and if he continued to do so at this time, it would only make it more difficult for him to return to Ulopolos, so he hurriedly smiled at Xie Minyun, changed his humble face and said, "Isn't it just a painting! Since my niece has spoken, I, as an uncle, must not let my niece down....."

Everyone didn't expect Stern Kim's face to change so quickly, and they didn't know what was going on, and looked at Xie Minyun in disbelief, wondering if Xie Minyun was the carrier, and what kind of thinking control skills he had exerted on Stern Kim.

Stern Jin didn't wait for Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun to speak, he waved his hand to the auctioneer and said, "The auction just now doesn't count, let's start again." Stern Kim looked at Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun and pretended to be generous and said, "I won't bid this time, I will buy this painting as a wedding gift for both of them!"

Cheng Mo didn't plan to let go of Stern King, anyway, the contradiction between him and Stern King couldn't be reconciled, and it could even be said that either you died or I lived, there was really no need to leave any leeway, he shook his head and said coldly: "Mr. Stern, how can you treat this charity auction as a child's play? It's shameless to break the rules like this." ”

Being scolded by Cheng Mo in public, Stern King seemed to be deaf on the surface, but in fact, in his heart, Stern King had already cut Cheng Mo with a thousand knives, and he even had some doubts that Cheng Mo would be Lin Zhinuo, he smirked and said: "Niece and son-in-law! We do it appropriately, don't you need to be too serious, I guarantee that you can ..... a painting" Stern King turned his head to look at Napoleon VII and said meaningfully, "Christopher, did you say?"

Napoleon VII said lightly: "I said at the beginning, you don't have to fight for what I donate. Napoleon VII looked around and said unquestioningly: "This is it, I took this painting myself at a price of 10 million euros, and gave it to Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun ..... instead of Mr. Stern."

None of the guests in the banquet hall expected Napoleon VII to deal with it in such a compromised manner, and the younger generation of aristocrats frowned, secretly complaining that Napoleon VII was too cowardly in the face of Stern King. The older generation of aristocrats felt that Napoleon VII was a little appeased, but the handling was quite mature and steady.

In contrast, Cheng Mo was directly stubborn, looking more relieved, which made them remember a name - "Cheng Mo". The Chosen were curious as to why Cheng Mo could threaten a character like Stern King, and in any case, it would be remarkable to be able to capture Stern King's weakness.

Stern King hurriedly patted Napoleon VII on the shoulder, and said with an appreciative expression: "His Royal Highness is worthy of the hope of the Napoleonic family, and your wisdom and generosity are comparable to Napoleon I!"

Napoleon VII obviously heard the doubts around him, but when Stern King continued to stimulate him with words, he still chose to forbear, and replied politely: "Mr. Stern, thank you for your compliment, I would never dare to compare with my ancestors, and I am glad to inherit one percent of the wisdom and bravery of my ancestors." ”

"I don't dare to say more, there must be one percent!" Stern King said again, patting Napoleon VII on the shoulder again and appreciating in the tone of an elder.

Stern King's tone was more uncomfortable to listen to than direct sarcasm, and Daeva opened her mouth in dissatisfaction, but was glared back by Napoleon VII just about to speak, and could only bow her head aggrievedly.

Napoleon VII waved for the auction to continue, and the auctioneer ordered the flowers to be taken and prepared to auction the eighth item.

Since Napoleon VII dealt with it so decisively, and did not give Cheng Mo a chance to continue to persecute Stern King, Cheng Mo could only give up and sit down again. He jumped out and wanted to kill three birds with one stone, one was to build a good impression in Napoleon VII's heart, the second was to force Napoleon VII to completely stand on the opposite side of Stern King, and the third was to disgust Stern King.

At the moment, it seems that it has not met expectations, mainly because Napoleon VII is too cunning and Stern King is too shameless, which is beyond Cheng Mo's expectations. However, it is not a failure, and he believes that it will still play a big role.

Stern King also sat down again, he looked at Cheng Mo and smiled, then picked up the wine glass, and said meaningfully to Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun: "Don't put on a poker face, you didn't spend a penny to get the painting, you should be happy, be a human ......" Stern King drank the aperitif in the cup in one gulp, and then licked his lips with his scarlet tongue, "Be a man..... Can't be too greedy, greedy...... It's a sin......"

Cheng Mo also picked up the wine glass, he glanced at Stern Jin at the crystal glass rippling with peach-colored liquid, and said lightly: "Greed is the driving force of human progress, and many things can only be possessed if you are greedy enough. If you don't have even the slightest ambition, there will be no pie in the sky..... Just like just now, I only have a little bit of information, so I dare to threaten you, but it's because I'm greedy enough....." Cheng Mo raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, "You see, if I wasn't greedy, how could I get a multimillion-dollar painting for nothing?"

Athena glanced at Cheng Mo silently, as if she had noticed something.

For the first time, Stern King couldn't maintain the expression on his face, he leaned back on the back of the chair with a lot of movements, the carved wooden chair and the marble made a harsh grinding sound, Stern King gave Cheng Mo a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "You are great, I will take you to heart..... My lovely little biscuits....."

"Thank you for your concern, and thank you for your painting ......" Cheng Mo replied indifferently.

————————————————————————

After a little episode of Stern King, the auction went smoothly and finally raised 35 million euros, and when the auctioneer announced the end of the auction, everyone was still a little regretful, because they could not see Athena's donation auction, and everyone knew that if Athena had donated items, it would definitely cause a dragon fight, especially Napoleon VII and Joseph.

The auction and banquet are followed by a cocktail party, and there is no need to change venues, the waiters move their chairs to the edge of the hall, and then serve cocktails and desserts, and the reception begins as the guests move around.

Not long after the cocktail party began, Athena found an excuse to leave, so Joseph also left disappointed, and Stern King naturally followed, leaving only Cheng Mo, Xie Minyun and Napoleon siblings.

Cheng Mo stepped forward just now to make Dava's favor for him greatly increase, she made a grimace at Stern King's chubby back, and then imitated Stern King's tone and said, "You are great, I will take you to heart..... My lovely little biscuits....."

Napoleon VII smiled.

Dai Wa looked at Cheng Mo and said happily: "Hey, Cheng Mo, you did a good job! I really pinched a cold sweat for you just now, you must know that he is a big man that my brother would not dare to offend." ”

Cheng Mo turned his head slightly to look at Napoleon VII and said, "No, your brother just doesn't want to offend, not dare to offend!"

Napoleon VII did not respond to Cheng Mo's topic, but said with a smile: "I didn't have a chance to say thank you just now, now I solemnly say thank you to the two of you, this banquet will almost be a mess, fortunately you ....."

"You're welcome, Your Royal Highness, I also don't like that fat man from the United States. Cheng Mo said.

Napoleon VII did not continue to be polite, but looked at Xie Minyun and said: "Shier, I heard that Cheng Mo is still coming to the Fontainebleau Palace for the first time, in order to show up the friendship of the landlord, I would like to take him for a little visit......"

Of course, Xie Minyun understood that Napoleon VII only said that he would take Cheng Mo to visit, and there should be something she wanted to talk to Cheng Mo about alone, so she immediately replied: "Of course I have no problem." ”

Napoleon VII looked at Cheng Mo, who put down the cocktail glass in his hand and said, "You can show me around in person, this is really a thing that I can't ask for." ”

Napoleon VII made a gesture of invitation and said, "No, it is my pleasure to have the pleasure of taking you on a tour." ”
