Chapter 8: Let it be given to you

Li Zhenmo is sure, definitely, and definitely.

At that moment, in the box escorted by the Xingning Gang, I saw a living person with a frightened look.

To save, or not to save?

Li Zhenmo was thinking repeatedly along the way.

As he walked ahead, he came up with a hundred ways in his head about that person's background, where did it come from, and why did it appear in the box of the Xingning Gang?

If you appear in the Xingning Gang box, you will inevitably be sent to the Xingning Pavilion.

Xingning Pavilion is the place where the treasure is auctioned, and since that person is going to be sent to the auction hall, he must have a skill.

Maybe it was a slave who was abducted from another state capital, Li Yimo originally heard his teacher Zhang Chaoshui say it.

The geisha of other state capitals were bought by the Xingning Gang on the way back and sold to the mansions of the dignitaries of the Jiangzhou Mansion.

It's none of your business, hang high.

Let him go, get the bamboo leaf green wine tonight, even if he completes the task, he doesn't care about human trafficking.

Li Luomo thought about this, but his heart was not peaceful.

The group went around and around, and finally came to the legendary Xingning Pavilion.

The building of Xingning Pavilion is not too different from the local architectural style, if it were not for the three words "Xingning Pavilion" written on the door plaque, if it were not for a few tall and muscular men guarding the door to check the invitation post, Li Zhenmo was almost a restaurant.

The three-story building is gray and white, and there are several cages hanging on the beams, and in the cages are blue parrots.

"Welcome, young master!" , shouted the trained parrot in the cage.

The master walked in front, and the servants and carriage followed behind, which was a scene that attracted the slight sideways glances of passers-by.

The muscular man guarding the door watched Li Luomo and his party approach, and greeted them with a smile.

"The carriage can be walked around with the small ones and put in the backyard, and there is good feed in the backyard stables." , said the muscular man.

"You have to be careful", a sharp voice interrupted Li Yumo's gaze looking around, he turned his head and looked at the student Fang who was sad about his partner Wang Er that day, who was walking slowly, and said as he walked: "Don't snub Master Li's good horse!" ”

Student Fang was still wearing the indigo uniform of the National Security Academy, he glared at Li Ming next to the carriage viciously, and after saying a word, he didn't say more, lifted the hem of his uniform, stepped over the high threshold, and the little guy in Xingning Pavilion bent down and led Student Fang in.

Li Zhenmo stood in place.

The student surnamed Fang had a loud voice, and almost at the same time, the door was silent for a second, and then groups of people, with vague and obscure eyes, began to look at Li Yumo and his party.

Along the way, the closer to Xingning Pavilion, the more neatly dressed people are, and when they arrive at the door of Xingning Pavilion, except for the little guys brought by the sons of each family, there are almost no people in coarse linen and short clothes.

Li Luomo and his party felt the hot gaze around them, and the back of Student Fang had disappeared.

"This is the stupid son of the Li family~"

"I heard that he is stupid, and he still can't tell the difference between two, four, six, and eight!"

"What Iniquity Have You Created?"

"The first time I saw it, the stupid young master of the Li family was born very handsome!"

"What's the use of being handsome?" , a passer-by said disdainfully: "The two sons of the Li family, this eldest young master is the eldest son, it's a pity!" ”

"What a pity?" Another man leaned forward and asked quietly.

"It's okay to be a fool, the two brothers Li Yumo were born to half-brothers." The passer-by looked understanding and replied: "The grievances of the wealthy family! ”

The surrounding crowd nodded knowingly.

"I heard that back then, it was the second lady who gave the eldest young master a Gu ......"

"Oh ~ bloody rain."

The people around him didn't talk loudly, and word by word came into Li Yumo's ears.

Xiao Xia was angry and wanted to come forward to explain, but was stopped by Li Yumo in time, and he looked at the place where Fang Student left quietly.

The muscular guy at the door of Xingning Pavilion saw that there was something unusual on Li Luomo's side, so he stepped forward to say hello.

Li Luomo came here for the first time, and he didn't know what the process was, so he said "um", and Xiao Xia sensibly handed over the invitation-

The muscular man's eyes lit up when he looked at the color of the invitation, and shouted into the building: "The VIP has arrived!" ”

The decoration in the Xingning Pavilion is unique, the first floor is a hall of three hundred zhang, the rectangular layout, above the auction table on the first floor, there is a huge plaque displayed, and the book Xingning Pavilion is written.

Below the plaque, there is no square table, and there is a large booth above the water level.

The large booth is facing two chairs and a square table, which are a set of seating for guests.

With a combination like this, there are nearly 100 sets neatly arranged on the first floor.

Entering through the screen of the main door is the last row of tables and chairs.

Walking straight to the center, there is a staircase covered with blankets, and you can step on the stairs to go up to the private room on the second floor.

There are only three private rooms on the second floor, facing the display table, and looking down from the railing, you can see the auction items at a glance.

Opposite the private room, there is also a VIP private room that is not open to the public, at this time, the table is placed with the best real objects and Jiangzhou Mansion special saltwater duck.

This private room is not usually open to the public, but there are two people sitting at the table.

A square student with a broad forehead and a uniform uniform, and - Feng Ning.

Feng Ning is a small-eyed young man who is not very old.

At this time, I saw him smile and say, "Oh? You played the Li family, so you are really not afraid that the Li family will trouble you? ”

Student Fang's forehead was full, his eyes were very wide, he really didn't look good, he pursed his lips and said:

"You don't know this, other rich children, it's okay" Fang Student smiled secretly: "This Li family is young, but Shengsheng made the old lady of the Li family angry and was kicked out of the academy——"

"Shame on the Li family!" As he spoke, Fang Student mocked: "The commercial giant of the Jianghe Continent, the son of the president of the Dajiang Chamber of Commerce, is so unbearable! ”

"Let him make a fool of himself, a trivial matter, and it can be regarded as revenge for my revenge that day."

"But that legendary stupid young master, who has never lived in seclusion, how could he come to my Xingning Pavilion?" Feng Ning asked.

"Whatever?" Student Fang said disdainfully: "Today, the Li family is here, you want to make a fortune!" ”

The two exchanged glances and laughed—

"Li family", Feng Ning smacked his lips, he didn't know what to calculate, he raised his glass to the student surnamed Fang, and said, "Then, it's all up to Brother Fang!" ”

As soon as Li Yumo entered the door, he sneezed.

The subordinate led Li Luomo up the stairs, stopped at the private room in the middle, poured tea and explained the auction cards and rules one by one, and left the private room.

In fact, the rules are not very complicated, Li Zhenmo digested it, took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "The one with the highest price will get it!" ”

Xiao Xia and Li Ming stood at the other end of the room, not speaking.

Although Li Ming was silent, he looked at Li Mingmo with a strange expression.

"Where's the latrine?" Li Yumo finished drinking tea and asked.

Xiao Xia stayed in the box, while Li Mingmo dragged Li Ming and walked in the direction of the toilet prepared for the guests.

After a few whispers, Li Mingmo looked as usual, returned to the private room, and Li Ming nodded and left.

When he was young, most of the guests sat down, and Fang Student watched in the dark, staring viciously at Li Zhenmo, who was sitting by the fence on the second floor, and swept the audience seats on the first floor with his eyes, and said:

"Right now, it's an occasion for the rich and noble children of Jiangzhou Mansion to gather."

"You have to lose the face of the Li family!"

"It's hard to understand my hatred of being ugly in public that day."

Fang student recalled that yesterday afternoon, the manager of the store in Li Jiayun Shufang came to apologize with the latest Yunjin, and inadvertently said that Li Qimo was going to the auction.

"My eldest young master is sick, I'm afraid he burned his head, don't mind the student!"

"No, Ming'er is going to Xingning Pavilion again, it's a ......real headache, but don't make a mess, otherwise when the master comes back, he will definitely beat the eldest young master to death."

Student Fang thought of the guy's distressed expression, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When—

The gong sounded, Feng Ning ascended the auction table, and the auction of Xingning Pavilion kicked off.

"Contemptible, Xingning Gang, Feng Ning—" Feng Ning's eyes swept across the audience and gestured.

Feng Ning clapped his hands, and several people worked together to carry a box up.

Feng Ning took out the key from his arms and slowly opened the box.

"It's blood-red coral!"

Someone in the audience exclaimed.

Feng Ning smiled slightly, and said: "I will spend a lot of effort on this coral, and I will dedicate it to all of you from a seafaring merchant, and the starting price is twenty taels of silver!" ”

"Twenty-one taels!" As soon as Feng Ning's voice fell, some viewers raised their cards and the shooting began.

"Twenty-eight taels!"

"Thirty taels!"

"This coral is in such poor condition that it costs thirty taels of silver! The one in the old man's hall is much better than this!" Xiao Xia stood next to Li Yumo and pouted.

It's not done yet.

Li Luomo held up the sign——

"Five hundred taels!"

The hall was silent for a moment, and they all looked sideways, looking at the brocade-clothed young man behind the railing-

Feng Ning on the stage showed an imperceptible smile, and gestured to Li Zhenmo:

"Gongzi Li's bid, five hundred taels of silver, do any other guests want this?"

"One thousand taels!"

Student Fang's voice came from the box next door, I don't know when he entered the box next door, he looked at Li Yumo's annoyed affection and was in a comfortable mood, and said secretly:

"These rich second generations, they love face, value is secondary, if they go against their prestige and steal face, they will go crazy like a rooster."

As soon as the voice of one thousand taels of silver came out, the audience downstairs was in an uproar.

"Fifteen hundred taels!" Li Luomo raised the sign again.

Xiao Xia was so frightened that he tugged at Li Zhenmo's sleeve and said sweatily: "My eldest young master—"

"Gongzi Li bid fifteen hundred taels—" Feng Ning shouted.

"One thousand seven hundred taels!"

Student Fang's voice came unhurriedly, still pressing Li Yumo's head.

Li Luomo gritted his teeth and waited for Fang Student through the railing, Xiao Xia dragged Li Luomo's arm.

Student Fang didn't seem to feel Li Yumo's anger, and exchanged glances with Feng Ning in the audience, signaling that it was almost time to close the net.

Feng Ning looked at the red coral in front of him, thinking about the 30 taels of silver he gave to the fisherman, and secretly his heart beat faster.

The first baby, is it so big to play?

The audience on the first floor was looking forward to Li Zhenmo's counterattack -

"That's the case—" Li Zhenmo pretended to be distressed and said-

"Give it to this student over there!"

"Gah?"

The audience was dumbfounded.

Feng Ning was dumbfounded.

Student Fang was dumbfounded. 、

……

Li Luomo looked at Student Fang and said with a shy face:

"Students are the future of our Jiangzhou Mansion—"

"Besides—"

Li Zhenmo didn't know which sleeve he pulled out a folding fan, unfolded it with a snap, and explained handsomely:

"Young Master Ben has always liked to compete with others."

"And ......"

Li Zhenmo glanced at the coral and added:

"I have a lot of stuff in my warehouse~"
