Chapter 350: Auction
Snake Mountain is the only natural mountain forest in Shanghai, with an altitude of 99 meters, Snake Mountain is located in the southwest of Shanghai, the original Songhai Ancient City.
There are nine peaks in Snake Mountain from south to north, nine peaks and twelve mountains are undulating for more than ten miles, the natural scenery here is beautiful, the cultural landscape is gathered, and it enjoys the reputation of the root of Shanghai and the sea and the paradise.
There is a private clubhouse at the foot of Snake Mountain.
The Moon Lake Clubhouse, built at the foot of the mountain and by the lake, is unique in Shanghai, a city with an average altitude of only two meters.
It's better to say that there's an auction than a small gathering, and it's set up in the clubhouse's bar, with five small round tables in the center, bartending at the bar, and soft but provocative music playing on the speakers.
The Qian family in Jiamen, the Tang family in Jinguancheng, the Lang family in Huacheng, the He family in Huhai, and the Ji family in Dongning Island, each of the five families occupied a position.
The Qian family's table was next to the Ji family, and Huo Huiling, who was wearing a mask, really appeared here with the young master of the Qian family. There were two other people at the same table with them, both of them were masters, and Qin Dao knew that they should be the bodyguards of the new head of Jia Men, the young master of the Qian family. Huo Huiling didn't glance at Qin Dao since he sat down, Qin Dao knew the character of his cousin, and he smiled bitterly in his heart, he could only not know that this masked person was his cousin.
The Tang family came with two men, an old man and a young man, the older one was about fifty years old, gentle and elegant, and his bearing was extraordinary. No matter how the young man looks, he is somewhat similar to Tang Xiaotang, although Xiaotang has never said it, but Qin Dao still knows some things about Tang Xiaotang. Tang Xiaotang's mother was the original wife of the Tang family, who died in an accidental car accident, but he didn't expect that within a month, Xiaotang's mother's bones were not cold, and his father brought a stepmother back to Xiaotang. Eight months later, she even gave birth to a younger brother. Xiao Tang, who was only eight years old, didn't ask anything, he sorted out all his mother's relics and left the Tang family, leaving Jinguancheng, a child wandering alone in the rivers and lakes, and the hardships are needless to say.
Xiao Tang's group followed Qin Dao to Snake Mountain, lurking outside at the moment.
The eldest woman wore a fiery low-cut tight dress, this evening dress supported her good figure almost perfectly, and her appearance was also very well maintained, she looked like she was in her forties, but Qin Dao could see that she should never be young. The middle-aged woman looked in her early thirties, in fact, she should have been over forty years old, the same low-cut evening dress, but her skirt was much shorter. The youngest of the three women was the youngest, and the girl in her twenties wore a professional suit that did not match her age, and next to the two women was like their secretary. Qin Dao really can't see the relationship between the three of them, the three sisters can't be, and the three generations of grandparents are not very similar.
In addition to Ji Huatang and his wife Sha Dai, there was another person at Qin Dao's table, Qin Dao did not bring Ah Fu and Ah Shou to come, and what he brought was Gan Baihua, who had just become his temporary life secretary in the afternoon.
The owner here, Xuanyuan, has not yet appeared, probably because the He family from Huhai has not yet come, so the auction has not started yet.
A large screen in front of you is showing the introduction of today's lots.
The bronze sword named Qinghong, the ancestor of the knife named Minghong, is said to be the Shenwei Lie water gun used by the famous anti-Japanese generals in the Ming Dynasty.
Qin Dao swept a few weapons placed in the glass display case in front of him, these things Qin Dao was not particularly interested in, although they were all once famous, but they may have been handed down for a long time and have seen blood, there is no aura on the knife anymore, it is no longer suitable for killing, and their collection value is higher.
Everyone's attention is not on today's lot, and everyone is curious why the He family hasn't arrived today. They are locals, and they are considered to be half of the hosts, and they are usually the first to arrive.
Qin Dao glanced at a palm-sized mobile phone in his palm, and with a flip of his palm, he put away the phone. When entering the venue, everyone's mobile phones and other electronic products were taken away, but it was naturally not difficult for Qin Dao to hide a mobile phone.
Qin Dao's mobile phone is naturally not an ordinary product, the whole mobile phone is not much bigger than a palm, and the whole mobile phone is a touch screen without any buttons, which is better than the mobile phones on the market
At least five years at first.
"I'm afraid the He family won't be able to come." ap.
Several people at the same table all looked at Qin Dao curiously.
"Just a few hours ago, dozens of people died in the He family."
"What's going on?"
The people present were not ordinary people, and what Qin Dao said just now was not something to hide from others, and everyone was not chatting at the moment, pricking up their ears to listen to the conversation here.
"The specific situation, Ah Fu is still inquiring, and now I only know that this night, many people were executed in Shanghai."
"A lot of people died. Are those people struck again?"
Before Qin Dao could speak, a few people came out from behind the scenes.
These people are old and young, but they all wear glasses, and they don't look like craftsmen, but their temperament is a bit like that of a corporate executive.
"Do you think that the people of their Yuwen family are different from what they imagined?" Ji Huatang whispered
"Yes. I always thought they were iron-strikers."
"In fact, they all have other jobs on weekdays, and they are all CEOs of several network technology companies in China."
"It's really hard for them to have passed down the craft for thousands of years, and it has not been discarded in this era."
"This world has its own cause and effect, if they lose the craft of forging, maybe the Yuwen family at this moment will not exist."
"Anyway. There's a story in it."
"As far as I know, their Yuwen family has encountered several catastrophes in the past hundred years, and they have all relied on our family to help them resolve them. My grandfather told me that during the Anti-Japanese War, the Dongying devils didn't know how to know that their family would forge weapons, so he went to the door and asked them to forge Dongying knives. Their family was unwilling, and in the end they were desperate, and at that time they were sheltered by my grandfather to escape."
The auction finally began, and the person presiding over the auction was a young man from the Yuwen family, this young man was wearing a black silk gown, looking very solemn.
Soon the Qinghong ancient sword was bought by the Qian family, the Minghong sword was taken by the Tang family, and the Shenwei water gun was bought by the Lang family. It is said to be an auction, but there is no bidding here, and everyone seems to have a tacit understanding that as long as someone bids, the others will not bid.
This Hell Breaking Sword is the same as the Eight Prison Knives before, and it will not necessarily come out in a few generations, so their Yuwen family is still very cautious, and before the auction enters the final link, the owner here gives each table a jar of rice wine.
The rice wine that came up looked like the champion red that had just risen from the ground, Zhang Qilu glanced at the young man on the stage, he felt that the vintage of this wine should be the same as that of the young man of the Yuwen family.
Wine has to be sealed for decades, in fact, it is not as simple as we imagined, especially rice wine, which is not high in alcohol, without some special means, it may be buried in the ground for ten or twenty years and dug up, and it may be rancid and cannot be drunk.
The moment the mud seal was uncovered, the rich aroma of wine suddenly burst out, domineeringly encroaching on the entire house. The fragrance of glutinous rice, the mild aroma of wine, and the sweet aroma after fermentation are just right blended together, and after years of precipitation, it is long and refreshing.
The wine is served in a crystal glass specially used to drink this wine, and the light amber liquor has a warm color and is very beautiful.
I put the wine glass close to my nose and smelled a sweetness similar to honey, so I took a sip of it, although it was an old wine, it tasted very fresh and refreshing, and the taste was very rich. The wine is on the stomach, and there is a hint of bitterness, bitterness and sweetness on the tip of the tongue, and the aftertaste is extremely long.
After a few glasses of wine, Qin Dao saw that the host had no intention of continuing the following process, and Qin Dao smiled slightly.
Sure enough, soon the Yuwen family in the room disappeared without knowing when, and even the bartender in the bar disappeared while they were tasting wine.
Soon everyone else in the room noticed, and everyone didn't pay attention at first, they thought that someone from the Yuwen family had gone to ask for a sword. Although the wine is a good wine, mellow and delicious, no one touches it anymore at this time.
Qin Dao was not worried at all, he had already determined that this wine was fine, and he continued to drink the wine one by one. Although he didn't know what the other party was going to do, he just found it interesting.
Qin Dao can be sure that the other party is in self
He recognized himself as soon as he appeared, and when he was auctioned before, the attention of several people from the Yuwen family present was always on him. They consciously kept it secret, but how could this be hidden from Qin Dao. He was now curious about what these people were trying to do.
"These people from the Yuwen family don't seem to be right, aren't you worried?"
Gan Baihua hasn't said a word since she changed into a set of professional clothes provided by Ah Shou. At this moment, my curiosity aroused, and I finally couldn't hold it back.
"I'm afraid of something, aren't you there?"
Ji Huatang looked at Gan Baihua carefully, and said, "I don't know who this is...... I've never seen it before."
"Ah Fu, Ah Lu, Ah Shou, I am glad that they all have their own things to do, the newly recruited life secretary."
"yes, I don't know what to call it."
"Blessing, Lu, longevity, happiness, and wealth, you can call her Ah Cai."
Gan Baihua, who had just been named Ah Cai, glanced at Qin Dao.
Seeing that Qin Dao didn't seem to want to mention more about this woman, he didn't ask anymore. Ji Huatang also knew that none of the people who could be around Qin Dao were simple, and they could all be said to be strange people.
Having excellent skills is the entry condition, Ah Fu has a strong sense of observation, and his execution is even more first-class, he can't finish what Qin Dao commands, and he is even more loyal. Ah Lu doesn't know where she learned a disguise technique over the years, she doesn't seem to appear by Qin Dao's side very much, and she is haunted by the sky. Here in Qin Dao, Ah Lu is in charge of intelligence work. Ah Shou doesn't need to mention it, Ji Huatang may not know how she is doing, but such a baby who can make money and make money, who doesn't want a few. The happy thing Ji Huatang also knows that once in a hundred years, such a person is placed in a chaotic world, that is, the life of the emperor, and now such a person is willing to stay by Qin Dao's side as his escort captain. It can be seen from this that this Ah Cai will definitely not be simple.
Unconsciously, another five minutes passed, and the people present were a little unable to sit still, and some people began to blame the Yuwen family for their hospitality, dissatisfied with their neglect of their own gold masters.
The three women of the Lang family finally snuffed off the cigarettes and cigars in their hands, and the youngest girl walked to the gate to ask someone what was going on.
With a push, she was stunned, and then pushed harder, and she said to her companion at the table in disbelief, "Auntie, sister-in-law, this door is sealed."
