At five o'clock, people began to enter one after another, and at the beginning they were all merchants from Luoyang or Sili, and Ronghua and Zhou Tian were enough to deal with it!

At seven o'clock, those officials with lower ranks began to enter, these were all people who had sent greetings to Zhuang Shaoyou, but had never met.

Zhuang Shaoyou, such a big leader, since he came to Luoyang, he fought with General He for a month, and finally made a truce, but he was jealous of the second son of the Wei family, and it was not until these two days that he finally stopped! How can I see these shrimp soldiers and crab generals?

However, Zhuang Shaoyou began to stand at the door to greet him, and these officials, big and small, greeted Zhuang Shaoyou with great enthusiasm, hoping to leave a good impression on General Zhuang, and it was best to remember himself, but it was definitely wishful thinking!

Zhuang Shaoyou has his own set of principles, and if he has an impression in his mind, he must be a cow, even if he is belittled to his home in the book, he is a character at all; If you don't have an impression in your head, it's basically passerby! You can ignore it directly, no matter how big an official you are, it's useless!

At the same time, Cao Cao and his father Cao Song arrived, and Zhuang Shaoyou hurriedly greeted him

"Brother Meng De, this is Lord Lingzun, right?"

Without waiting for Cao Cao to answer, the old man arched his hand and said: "General Zhuang has good eyesight, old man Cao Song, old man often hears Meng De mention you!" General Zhuang is young and promising, and he is much more productive than my Mengde! ”

Cao Cao's expression was as usual, but Zhuang Shaoyou was embarrassed for a while, Cao Cao's father said that I was more productive than Cao Cao? It's so thunderous! However, he hurriedly replied: "Lord Cao has won the award, how can he be virtuous?" Brother Meng De is the true hero of the world, Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and it will take a long time to see the hearts of the people! ”

After a few words of greetings, Zhuang Shaoyou sent Sun Qian to lead the Cao family father and son to the third floor, Cao Song is the adopted son of Cao Teng in the former Changqiu, and he has been too often and too lieutenant, although it is bought with money, but it is also the third duke, Zhuang Shaoyou just stepped down when he first arrived in Luoyang, and he is already over sixty years old, so he will be old-fashioned, and it is natural for such a level of people to be arranged on the third floor!

One after another, some middle and high-ranking officials with a rank of 2,000 stone came one after another, and after some greetings, they were also taken to the third floor.

At the beginning of the year, Henan Yin Wangyun also came, and he also brought his wife together, which can be regarded as giving Zhuang Shaoyou enough face! After some politeness, he was led to the third floor by Ronghua, and after receiving the invitation, Wang Yun made up his mind to attend today's auction after careful consideration, as for not offending the Wei family, then he couldn't care about it!

For example, the situation is changing very quickly today, and these big families are in decline, so Wang Yun will bet on this, betting that Zhuang Shaoyou will become the person in power in Luoyang City, as long as he can rely on this mountain, he can make some political capital for the Wang family! This is speculation! It's just that Wang Yun has always been confident in his own vision and firmly believes that he will not be wrong this time!

At the next two o'clock, a strange guest came, an uninvited guest!

Zhuang Shaoyou looked at the hostile young man in front of him, and felt a little helpless in his heart, so he waved his hand casually and said to Zhou Tian next to him: "Please Gongzi Wei go up to the third floor!" ”

It turns out that this person is Wei Kai, the son of the Wei family, Wei Zhongdao's elder brother, twenty-two years old this year, and he is also a famous talent in Si Li, and his talent is not inferior to his brother Wei Zhongdao, but Wei Kai is more introverted and unwilling to publicize.

But because of Wei Zhongdao's matter, Wei Kai no longer has the calmness of the past, and there is a light of hatred in his eyes, many of the guests know this Wei family son, know Zhuang Shaoyou's relationship with the Wei family, and feel that Wei Kai may not be good today! They were all watching from afar, and no one dared to step forward to join in the fun.

Hearing Zhuang Shaoyou's words, Wei Kai snorted coldly, and strode up to the third floor with Zhou Tian's guidance.

At three o'clock, the guests have basically arrived, Zhuang Shaoyou saw that there were no guests coming again, so he walked upstairs, Zhou Tian walked to the booth, Ronghua ordered the people to enter the venue to see the excitement, and in an instant, thousands of people poured into the auction hall from another door.

The first floor is very large, in addition to the two thousand seats for the merchants, there is also a large number of empty steps, those people are enthusiastic to seize the advantageous terrain, in fact, there is nothing strong, all about the same, but the first person is a little psychologically comforted, thousands of people are noisy, in the maintenance of Le Jin and others finally quieted down.

Zhou Tian stood on the booth, accompanied by the sound of a gong, and loudly announced:

"Ladies and gentlemen! I announce that the first auction in Luoyang has officially begun! ”

At this moment, another carriage came from outside the door, and Zhou Tian looked out with some displeasure, who was so faceless? A guard ran over and whispered a few words in Zhou Tian's ear, Zhou Tian was taken aback and hurried to the door to greet him.

Shangshu Cai Yong and eldest daughter Cai Yan have arrived!

A few days ago, Zhuang Shaoyou personally went to Cai's Mansion to send an invitation, inviting Cai Yong and Cai Yan to participate in the auction, thinking that he could meet Cai Yong by the way and strive to leave a good impression, but Cai Yong was stubborn and refused to meet! So I didn't have any illusions at the time, but who would have thought that people were really here!

Zhuang Shaoyou was greeting those high-ranking officials from room to room on the third floor, but when he heard that there was suddenly no movement here on Sunday downstairs, he guessed that something might be an accident, so he hurriedly leaned over and looked, and as a result, he saw a man and a woman on the first floor, the man was an old man, and the woman was a big beauty, and they all looked very familiar.

"Teacher Cai? Cai Meimei? Zhuang Shaoyou couldn't help muttering, recalling in his mind that Teacher Cai, the head teacher of the 338th class of the 250th High School in Jinzhou, and Cai Meimei, the school flower, quickly reacted again, and rushed downstairs at full speed, completely ignoring his own image, which attracted the amazement of all the officials on the road, it seems that this General Zhuang is really a lover! is very obsessed with this Cai Yan, no wonder he will not hesitate to offend the Wei family! Now I finally get a little bit of a sense of it!

Cai Yong received Zhuang Shaoyou's invitation that day, heard the report of his subordinates, and knew that Zhuang Shaoyou personally sent it, although he refused to see him, he still pondered for a long time, sighed, and went to ask his daughter's opinion.

I thought that my daughter would refuse without hesitation, but I didn't expect Cai Yan to agree without thinking! It was very strange in my heart, but I also realized something, could it be that my daughter really had some thoughts about this Zhuang Shaoyou? If so, it's not entirely bad!

So today I brought Cai Yan to participate in this auction! As for why I was late, it was because the wheels on the road were broken, and I finally rented a carriage to come here! It really wasn't intentional!

Maybe it's the creation that makes people, maybe it's fate that arranges it, so that Cai Yan can appear on the stage at this high-profile moment, there is no applause, no encouragement, no gorgeous, and a little bland, very natural, as if it should be like this.

Zhuang Shaoyou rushed down panting, the spiral staircase turned his head a little dizzy, and soon stood in front of Cai Yan, his eyes stared straight at Cai Yan's dignified pretty face, licked his lips involuntarily, and only popped out three words for a long time:

"You're here!"

Cai Yan's face was a little red, I don't know what happened that day, I was in a trance, my father came to ask myself, but I subconsciously responded, afterwards Cai Yan was very entangled, and wanted to tell his father countless times that he didn't want to go, but every time he came back after just walking a few steps, and kept comforting himself, it's still early, don't rush to make a decision, and wait until the time comes!

As a result, this wait is until now, in the afternoon, Cai Yan began to prepare, fidgeting in the room to change clothes, like a demon, the little maid was waiting on the side in amazement, and occasionally joked, but tried to try, always felt dissatisfied, and finally a heart, wearing the most simple clothes, without powder, a small jasper look.

Seeing Zhuang Shaoyou panting and rushing down, Cai Yan understood that it was because of himself, and there was a hint of sweetness in his heart, but he was a little annoyed, both annoyed by Zhuang Shaoyou's actions in the public, it was easy for people to misunderstand, and he was annoyed that he was not angry, how many times he made up his mind to forget this man, but he always couldn't help but think of the scene when he blocked the knife for himself that day, and felt that he was very sorry for Zhongdao for doing this, love is neither hate nor successful, and he struggled in the entanglement.

"Hmm!" Cai Yan nodded subconsciously and answered softly, but then he was angry why he bothered with him, so he snorted coldly and turned his head.

Zhuang Shaoyou touched his nose and was a little overwhelmed, but when he heard a few light coughs coming from the side, he quickly withdrew his infatuated gaze, turned his head to Cai Yong and bowed deeply: "Student meet Teacher Cai!" ”

Cai Yong just wants to accompany his daughter out to relax today, and by the way, meet the owner of the name that has always lingered in his ears for the past month to see what kind of character he is, and whether he is really worthy of his daughter's life.

But when he saw Zhuang Shaoyou running down without any image, and staring at his daughter Wen Ji non-stop, without even saying hello to himself, he was suddenly a little annoyed, and he was in a high position without self-respect! This merchant-turned-man is really not good!

But Zhuang Shaoyou's gift, and a teacher Cai, and Cai Yong's annoyance disappeared without a trace, looking at Zhuang Shaoyou's sincere and respectful look, the mood was much more relaxed, although there was less education, and a little more lustful, but it was still teachable, and it was not useless!

Cai Yong nodded slightly and said, "I have heard the name of General Zhuang for a long time, and it is really extraordinary when I see it today!" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou said humbly: "Teacher Cai, Wen Ji, please go upstairs!" After speaking, he led the way in front of him, leading Cai Yong and Cai Yan to the third floor.

Those officials on the second and even third floors were all envious for a while, and secretly hated themselves in their hearts, why didn't they give birth to a beautiful daughter who was famous in Luoyang? Now it seems that this male superiority and inferiority are not absolute, if you give birth to a daughter and marry well, the whole family can follow suit, right? Not to mention marrying into the palace and getting the emperor's favor, it will immediately be a chicken dog ascending to heaven! Even if you can be an upstart like Zhuang Shaoyou, it's not bad!

Wei Kai looked at the scene in front of him, but his brows were furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

And Wang Yun sat in a room on the third floor, touching his beard, thoughtful.
