Chapter 8 Low Price Auctions
A few days passed, and Ximenqing's matter became a topic of conversation after dinner.
The next day, a piece of news went viral, much to everyone's surprise.
"Have you heard that Wu Dalang is going to entertain the celebrities and squires of the county, and he wants to auction off the mansions and shops under his name."
"I've known for a long time, and there's another person you can't think of."
"It shouldn't be Ximenqing!"
As these people said, in Wu Dalang's banquet list, there is the name of Ximenqing.
But now is different from the past, Wu Dalang in the past has become the first rich man in the county.
On the contrary, Ximenqing started his old business and sold cooking cakes in the city.
As for Wu Dalang's approach, the people are also discussing.
Some speculate that Wu Dalang wanted to take this opportunity to punish Ximen Qing......
There are also people who think that he is trying to show his mind and win people's hearts.
Either way, these people are just spectators.
And Wu Zhi, as the protagonist, was in the yard at this time, lazily basking in the sun.
"Sir, are you hot? I'll pour you a cup of tea. ”
"I'll go get a fan and fan you!"
At a glance, one of the two people who spoke was Li Jiao'er and the other was Zhuo Di'er.
The two of them were born as selling women, and they didn't care about any courtesy, righteousness and shame.
They only know that their lives and glory and wealth are all in Wu Zhi's hands.
"No need."
Wu Zhi pushed them away in disgust, for fear of getting into trouble.
Even Pan Jinlian's delicate face, he can't look at it, let alone these rouge vulgar fans.
Among them, the only one who is still passable is Wu Yueniang, who has not yet succumbed.
"Master, according to your orders, everything is ready."
A house slave cautiously walked over and clasped his hands in fists.
What he was referring to was, of course, the dinner party set up by Wu Zhi.
And this, for Ximenqing......
It is a real Hongmen feast.
"Hmm."
Wu Zhi bowed slightly, enjoying the shoulders rubbing of several maids.
This kind of taste, for him in the past, he didn't even dare to think about it.
Now, it's easy.
At the same time, in the past few days, Wu Zhi has also received many rewards for reversing Wu Dalang's unfortunate fate.
One of the most obvious is the significant improvement in physical fitness.
Not only has his complexion turned a lot whiter, but his height has also increased by more than ten centimeters, which means that he is on a par with Wu Song.
Speaking of Wu Song, a few days ago......
Wu Zhi also asked someone to go to Yanggu County and brought him a letter, but I don't know if I received it.
"Sir, the guests are ready, it's time for you."
After a while, when the house slave reported again, Wu Zhi also changed into the master's outfit and came to the living room with a smile.
Seeing the arrival of the Lord's house, everyone present got up one after another.
"It's the military officials who are here."
"Say hello to the military officials."
"Wu Daguan, you look good today."
A group of squires and celebrities pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and their words were all respectful of Wuzhi.
In their opinion, today's Wuzhi is no longer the vendor who sells cooking cakes, but a really rich and powerful man.
Therefore, they are also in the same class as them.
On the contrary, in the corner, there was a man who was sneakily drinking and did not even raise his head.
That person is naturally the down-and-out Ximenqing.
He watched Wu Zhi be popular, but no one cared about him, and the resentment in his heart was almost overflowing.
It's a pity that I didn't dare to open my mouth except to complain in my heart.
He was afraid that those who had been loyal to him would beat him.
But the reason why Wu Zhi invited him to the family banquet was not just to watch him drink alcohol.
It's not to show your generosity!
Sure enough, after perfunctory a group of squires and celebrities, Wu Zhi walked over with a glass of wine and a smile.
"Yo, isn't this Brother Simon?"
"Why is it that you are here alone and not with everyone?"
Hearing this familiar voice, Ximenqing immediately clenched his fists.
However, he didn't dare to have a seizure.
I had to turn around, squeeze out a smile, and nodded.
Seeing this scene, Wu Zhi's smile became even more teasing, and his eyes looked at his attire as if he were careless.
"If Brother Simon doesn't mind, you can come to my storeroom......"
"Find a few clothes for the family to spend the winter and save some money."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes around were immediately attracted.
Of course, they heard Wu Zhi's taunt, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but smile.
In the past, Ximen Qing relied on his wealth and power, which can be described as arrogant.
Which of the people of Qinghe County has not been suppressed and bullied by him?
Even they have suffered a lot.
Now, he's going to get to that point, too!
It's shocking and delightful.
"You ......"
After hearing this, Ximenqing's lips were about to bite and bleed.
He couldn't wait to take out the dagger now and kill Wu Dalang in front of him.
But when he thought of that day, Wu Zhi singled out the picture of the house slave and was undefeated, and retracted this thought.
Now, he can only pin all his hopes on Liu Zhixian.
"Then I'll go to another table first."
"Brother Simon, don't be restrained, haha!"
Wu Zhi's hearty laughter fell into Ximenqing's ears, which could be called a piercing noise.
He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and came to Liu Zhixian's side.
I repeated the words of that day again.
"Lord Zhixian, how are things considered?"
Liu Zhixian took the wine in his hand and glanced at Ximen Qing, who was full of anticipation.
Then, he nodded indifferently.
Seeing this situation, Ximenqing couldn't bear it anymore and squeezed the wine glass fiercely.
But he didn't see it, just when he was asking, a pair of hands stretched out from behind his back and secretly changed his wine glass.
"Ximen official, there will be a good show to watch later."
"Oh?"
With a hearty smile, Ximenqing drank the wine.
On the other side of the table, as Wuzhi's woman, Pan Jinlian also sat on the upper seat with Wu Yueniang.
Ever since she learned that Ximenqing was coming, she didn't think about it.
I look forward to seeing my little lover all day long.
Now, it's finally a dream.
And as the matchmaker of the two, Wang Po also came here.
However, it is with the meaning of currying favor with Wu Zhi.
"Wu Daguan, I really can't stand you."
"It's the old woman who is blind that she did that kind of thing, and you have a lot of ......"
