Act XVIII Thirteen Vicious Federalists
"I like showhand," Lu Mingfei spread his hands, "I don't like this way of auctioning, it's too cumbersome, too verbose, if I think this thing is worth it, I'll add 100 million." ”
"Ask Ms. 88 to bid, and if you still want to bid, I'll go out and go to the bathroom." Lu Mingfei got up and dusted off the cigar dust scattered on his clothes, put the number plate on the seat, and turned to go out.
Every step he took as he left was relaxed and natural, as if he had just bought a pack of chewing gum at a convenience store.
The auctioneer stood on the stage again, his voice trembling, "Now that the auction has reopened, we have received the authorization from Ms. 88 to bid...... 200,000, and the authorization of Mr. Lu on the 17th, bid...... One hundred and twenty million. ”
The auction of this set of swords has gone crazy all the way, and at this moment it has finally gone crazy to the limit.
"One hundred and two hundred thousand dollars at a time." The auctioneer raises the gavel.
Everyone's eyes fell on the No. 88 girl, her sky-high price was rejected by Lu Mingfei in an instant, whether this queenly girl will resist again is the only variable, and the others have not dared to bid at all, the price and people are crazy.
The girl got up coldly and left the table without saying a word.
"$100,200,000 deal!" As she walked out of the hall, the auctioneer dropped the hammer, no one raised any more cards, and she didn't even take a step, and suddenly she abandoned the thing.
"What did you just do?" Nuo Nuo asked Lu Mingfei, who came back from the toilet, "It seems that he has changed a person." ”
"Senior sister, I don't usually do this." Lu Mingfei sat down with a smile and took Nuo Nuo's hand, "But I occasionally go crazy." ”
“lu! You're amazing! Townsend exclaimed.
"It's alright......"
"Lu Mingfei." Someone said behind his back, "You are really capable, take my sister and me as the one who opened the knife." ”
He turned around and saw the girl in the golden robe who had come back for some reason, standing coldly behind him.
"Who are you?" Nuno got up and looked at Jiude Mai, his gaze was like a cold sword.
"Me...... Considered your boyfriend's first kiss? As she spoke, she lifted off the golden veil that was hidden from her face, and her face was thrillingly beautiful, with a bright blush and a thin aura of slaughter.
She smiled in Lu Mingfei's direction, and her stunning posture made many of the men present breathe more and more rapidly.
Under the background of the golden embroidered robe, the pair of straight long legs like white jade are half covered and half exposed, coupled with the explosive figure that makes supermodels jealous, as well as the laziness that deliberately blooms on the railing and the charming smile on his face.
A woman who always has two ninja knives stuffed in her handbag doesn't look harmless to humans and animals no matter how much makeup she makes, so Mai simply chooses to wrap herself from head to toe, and only the Arabic robe can slightly cover her unforgettable figure.
"What do you mean?" Nuo Nuo turned his head to look at Lu Mingfei, "What is she talking about?" ”
"It's broken...... Lu Mingfei thought, he swallowed hard, "I knew I wouldn't have operated on Sister Mai......
This time Lu Mingfei encountered the biggest crisis in history.
"That's it...... She's my brother's subordinate......" Lu Mingfei stumbled and said, "Senior Sister Lu Mingze, you also know, the omnipotent little devil...... Mai sister kissed me just to ...... How so...... Scenario needed? And it's a lifetime of it......"
Nuno didn't speak, just stood quietly, she only wore the red dress that Lu Mingfei gave her, which was much inferior to the gorgeous robe of Jiude Mai.
"I don't care what happened in my last life." Nuno suddenly spoke, and the blazing golden boy appeared, "In this life, he can only be mine." ”
She stared into Mai's eyes, silver four-leaf clover earrings studded with broken diamonds reflected a chilling white light under the lamp, with an innate sword-like momentum.
"I didn't want to rob you." Mai shrugged, "Don't be so nervous, I just want to ......"
"That's enough, Mai." Lu Mingfei interrupted her suddenly, with incomparable majesty.
Jiude Mai's heart was in a trance for a moment, and she suddenly couldn't tell whether the boy standing next to her was the boss or Lu Mingfei, or whether it was somewhere in between.
But those are two completely different people, how can there be a state between the two of them?
She suddenly didn't know how to talk to this person, if it was the boss, she would ask him respectfully for his instructions, if it was Lu Mingfei, maybe play the trick of kissing and flirting again?
In the end she didn't say anything, did nothing, just stood there.
"Let's go, senior sister, I will only be yours in this life." He took Nono's hand and walked out, passing Mai.
Applause poured out of the hall of the opera house like a surging tide.
It took a while for Mai to come back to her senses and mutter, "The decrepit boy is different......"
"I await the day when the whole world applauds you." She smiled and walked out.
……
……
The black partition separates the front and back rows of the DTS, and the black privacy glass also blocks the view from the outside, and Mai curls up on the wide sofa seat, kicks off the soft-soled slippers on her feet, and then "drills" out of the wide robe like a rabbit.
A black leather suit had already been placed next to her, a close-fitting short jacket and leather pants, and red sandals with three-inch high heels, this tight suit would take a few minutes to put on even with the help of someone, but for her, it was as simple as a hermit crab shrinking into a conch shell.
Recommended, chasing books is really easy to use, download here.. Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
"According to what you said, 100 million." She leaned gracefully back in her seat, crossed her long legs, and connected to the car phone, picking her ears with her long nails by the way.
"Well done, I've seen an extra $100 million in the account here, deducting the salvage funds we entrusted that guy to the Three Gorges, and this net profit is $98 million." The sound of chewing potato chips came from across the phone.
"But if you want me to say, the guy recommended by the boss is really a stinky fart, and he has to call me some 'client' when he hands over, making him look like some kind of detective." The potato chip girl began to chatter, "And the fee is also expensive, I earned 2 million dollars, and I feel sorry for me......"
"I haven't seen it, so I won't comment on it." Mai asked, "Does the boss have any news recently?" ”
"There's a contact."
"What's the matter?" Mai held her breath.
"It's nothing more than let's have more snacks for Lu Mingfei's kid." Su Enxi said, "He just asked me to borrow 100 billion, I wondered if this was not enough to care?" ”
"Speaking of Lu Mingfei, it's a pity that you didn't see that scene in the auction house." Jiude Mai remembered Lu Mingfei just now, and said with a smile, "It's completely different from him in his previous life, let's wait, he will amaze the world sooner or later." ”
"We'll see." Su Enxi said, "Hang up, I'm still watching the drama." ”
……
……
"Congratulations on what you wanted." The surging greetings seemed to come from an old friend who hadn't seen him for many years.
The sound of leather shoes stopped abruptly. Ange put his hands in his pockets and stood still.
He is about to traverse this narrow corridor, flanked by reproductions of famous paintings, from Van Gogh and Monet to Rubens, with scarlet ceilings, walls and floors.
A short figure was projected on Ange's back, hunched over his back and on crutches.
Ange raised his eyes and looked at the end, Lu Mingfei was waiting for him with Chen Motong in his arms, followed by two security guards with a cart, and in the black hard-shell box with iron sheets was a set of swords worth 100 million and 200 million US dollars.
Ange had a big smile on his face. He waved his hand at Lu Mingfei, "Old friend wants to talk to me, see you outside later." ”
Suddenly he changed his mind and said to them, "Mingfei, Nono, come with me." ”
Lu Mingfei ran over with Nuo Nuo in a puff of smoke, "Headmaster, why did you suddenly ask us to audit." ”
"I'll show you the world," Ange patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder, "I hope you can carry the banner of Kassel soon." ”
"Don't say that," Lu Mingfei patted his chest, "Your retirement is still very early, who dares to touch a single hair of your hair before that, I won't finish with him!" ”
"It doesn't have to be," Ange slowly straightened up, taking a deep breath without looking back, "I'm sure he's not going to shoot me in the back again, right, Henkel Quick?" ”
"It's been a hundred years," the one behind him smiled kindly, "At that time, your 'Time Zero' could only delay time by 4 seconds, and now it's more than 10 seconds, right?" The speed of bullets can be slowed down by you, so why care about my fast hands? And I'm also old, and my hands are slow. ”
"Your students?" Henkel set his sights on Chen Motong and Lu Mingfei.
"Yes," Ange finally turned around, "two of my proudest students." ”
"To get your 'most proud' evaluation of Ange, I believe it is not easy for the two of you." Henkel pushed open the door to the conference room, "including their performance at the auction, it was very impressive." ”
"Introducing Hilbert Jean Angers, the famous Rector of the Kassel Academy and one of the leaders of the Dragon's Blood Secret Party." Henkel slowly walked to the table and sat down, gesturing at Ange, "I think you all know him, but you haven't spoken face-to-face. How many years have we not had a direct conversation, Angers? ”
"The last time was at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, when you were a colonel in the U.S. Army, and our negotiations were interrupted in the middle of our negotiations by an aviation alert." Ange walked over to the empty high-backed cowhide chair next to him and sat down, relighting a cigar, Lu Mingfei and Chen Motong standing next to him.
"Senior sister, do you feel like a door god?" Lu Mingfei winked his eyebrows at Nuo Nuo, "Hmph, second general!" ”
"That's why you're going to be able to talk bad in this kind of situation." Nono gave him a blank look.
There were thirteen of these chairs in the small room, and on the chairs were all handsome young men, dressed in about the same costume as Anges, with black suits and leather shoes, white Florentine shirts, and different flowers in their pockets.
They all greeted Ange in the same way, raised their right fists, and showed the silver ring on their index fingers, the thick and simple ring, and the huge ring was a different totem.
They unveiled their family crests.
"Yes, in 1941," Henkel nodded, "if it weren't for your 'Time Zero' that bought us both a few seconds, we would have both been killed by Japanese bombs, and it was really dangerous in retrospect, the moment you launched your speech, that bomb hung like it hung above the bridge out of thin air." A very emotional tone.
"How many of you can represent the family?" Ange looked at the well-dressed young men, "It doesn't look like it's worth much, it doesn't feel as good as my students." ”
"It's almost the same, it's the outstanding young people of each family, and we focus on cultivating them." Henkel sighed, "Maybe it's not as good as your students. ”
Hearing this, those young people looked at Lu Mingfei, who was giggling with Chen Motong, with dissatisfaction.
"Not perhaps," Ange smiled, "for sure." ”
"Why bother with these battles of will, Ange, the future belongs to their young people after all," Henkel spread his hands, "I'm old, I see that you are still as vigorous as young people, I really envy you, you go to the bar and the little girl will be tempted by a handsome old man like you, right?" I love that Maserati sports car you drive. ”
"Henkel, don't beat around the bush and save some time." Ange puffed out a puff of cigarette and shook his head, "You've been hosting these kinds of auctions, and I've always been there, and you've never even said hello to me." What is the matter with this exception? ”
"Then I'd be respectful and obey," Henkel paused, "We know that the Kassel Academy killed Bronze and Fire, one of the Four Great Sovereigns, in the headquarters last year. ”
"Yes." Ange was very calm, pointing to Lu Mingfei behind him, "He killed it alone." ”
The young people couldn't help but look at Lu Mingfei again, and looked at each other in disbelief, and a young man with fair skin and blond hair stood up, "What we want to know is ...... Have you acquired him? ”
"When is it the turn of the adults to interject from the children?" Lu Mingfei, who was still scolding Nuo Nuo just now, suddenly said, he raised his head to look at the blonde young man, and there was a faint flash of gold in his eyes, "What are you?" ”
"Ange, your student is this?" Henkel asked.
Ange didn't answer, he lowered his head and played with the glass in his hand, and the wine rippled out layers of golden ripples, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became delicate, and the young people's bodies were tense, and the blonde young man who was in his early position just now didn't dare to come out.
Sometimes the silence is warm, sometimes it evokes hidden hostility.
Ange reached out and carefully picked up a struggling midge from the wine...... Shaking his head sadly.
"Literally, don't you understand?" He said casually.
"Ange, we are here with the sincerity of cooperation." Henkel frowned.
"Cooperate with what?" Ang nodded with a hot spot, "Let's talk about it, I like to talk about cooperation." ”
Henkel winked at the blonde young man.
"We have some ideas that we would like to convey to the Kassel Academy." The blonde young man received a hint from Henkel, and he plucked up his courage to puff up his chest and slowly approached Ange, assuming the majesty he had learned from his father, with grace and stride.
"We're all half-bloods, and we're supposed to be good friends, but we have some differences in our attitudes towards dragons."
"You think you're humans, dragons are mortal enemies, and we think that our group is somewhere between humans and dragons, and there's no need to always be entangled in dragon slaying."
"But it's not a big deal, you now have the power to kill the first generation, and we'd love to see it."
"We want you to put an end to the history of the dragons once and for all, as long as it doesn't expose our common secrets and make humanity fear us. If you need anything, we can help. ”
"Sounds good." Ange nodded anyway.
"After the dragons, it will not be the world of humans, but the world of our half-bloods. But no branch can expect to be an absolute leader, we share power. ”
The more the young man spoke, the more arrogant he became, and then he took another step and walked up to Ange, staring into his eyes without a moment's notice, "Kassel had better remember this, so that there is always a chance between us to sit down and have a drink and settle our differences." ”
Ange didn't react, he took a deep puff of his cigar and slowly exhaled it into the young man's face.
"You're humiliating me?" The young man's face was gloomy.
"Young man, you probably don't know what humiliation is." Ange took another sip of his cigar at him, "Honestly, if it weren't for my students here, I would have to set an example of an educator for them." ”
"I might have punched you hard and let you hear what bullshit you're talking about."
