"I'm going to kill him!" Sun Ji, with dead fish eyes, glanced at the old man aside.
The old man sent a message: "Don't worry, our people will naturally find him after leaving Xiaoyao Tower."
Sun Ji finally calmed down a little and led others towards the venue.
After the two parties left, the guards of Xiaoyao Building gathered around the housekeeper: "Mr. Wei, that jade plaque was given too easily. Although the cornflower blue piece was precious, it was not enough for the building to treat him like this.
"
Obviously they didn't understand that for this arrogant young man, he offended a famous big shot in Yi County.
The steward replied: "Of course a piece of cornflower blue is not that great, but this kind of gemstone is only produced in some islands in the mysterious South Sea. It is the territory of the sea tribe and ordinary people cannot get it. I guess he may have it."
He has a background from the Sea Clan, so I specially gave him a jade card, hoping to make good friends with people from the Sea Clan."
The other guards sighed: "So what about the Sea Clan. They rule the roost in the ocean, but they have no power on land. Now that they have offended Mr. Sun, they may not be able to leave Yi County alive."
The housekeeper frowned when he thought of Zu An's arrogant tone just now: "We have just done our personnel work. As for what happens to him next, we don't care about the things in the building."
…
On the other side, Zu An entered the venue, and soon a waiter came to greet him. Seeing the jade plaque in his hand, his expression became more respectful, and he led him to a private room: "Dear guests, the auction will be held later.
After starting, if you like something, you can raise the jade sign and bid, and our people will be able to see it."
Zu An observed it and found that the layout inside was very similar to a theater in his previous life. The center at the bottom was the venue, where the staff were busy preparing items for the auction later.
Then the many rows of seats below should be prepared for ordinary guests, and the top floor is a circle of small private rooms, which are equipped with expensive teak tables and chairs, covered with soft cashmere cotton cushions.
The fine sandalwood was burning in the corner, and the porcelain cups on the table were the same as those in the palace. Zu An was more and more impressed by the depth of the background of Xiaoyao Building.
"Do you want tea or wine? We have famous drinks from all over the world." The waiter asked with a smile.
"Let's have a pot of tongue." Zu An thought of Gao Ying's secret code on the way and ordered one at random.
The waiter nodded, and then handed over another brochure: "Do you have any girls you know well on the second floor? If necessary, you can ask them to come up to serve you. The guest is the most noble jade card, so you can do whatever you want.
Summon those oiran ladies on the second floor."
Zu An curiously took the booklet and found that every page was full of vivid portraits of beauties, either pure or charming, in various styles.
It has to be said that the painters in this world are different from those who focused on freehand brushwork in previous lives, and are more realistic. Every girl in the book is vivid and exactly the same as the photo, and even has a bit more agility than the photo.
It not only has everyone's portrait, but also their detailed introduction and their respective specialties, such as the flute and other musical instruments they are good at.
Zu An was full of emotions. He is really the conscience of the industry. In the past life, those foot bath clubs asked you if you knew any technicians you knew. How could I know which technician I knew well without even seeing their faces?
"No need." Zu An closed the book and gave it back to the other party. He was not very interested in the fireworks woman. What's more, if someone else was serving Pei You and he accidentally called him up, the boat of friendship would be over.
Turn it over.
"If you have any needs, please feel free to call me." The waiter didn't say much, put away the book and slowly left.
Zu An came to the window and found that the design here was very clever. He could clearly see what was going on in the venue, but it was difficult to see clearly what was going on in the box from outside. There was a sense of uncertainty between a public place and a private space.
He couldn't help but look a little weird. No wonder the waiter just said that he could call the oiran from the second floor to come over. Some people must like this kind of atmosphere.
Unable to see clearly what was going on in the box, he scanned the entire venue and found that the guests in the seats below were indeed Crouching Tigers, Hidden Dragons, and many of them were very advanced.
His eyes fell on a skinny man covered in black robes. The man seemed to have deliberately hidden his energy fluctuations, but with his current level of cultivation, he could still see through part of it, at least at the eighth level.
In addition, he also felt the aura of a ninth-grade strongman in the field, but he could not find the other person's figure.
"It seems to be coming from the backstage. It must be someone from Xiaoyao Building. No wonder it can shock the crowd in such a mixed place."
Although Zu An has seen quite a few grandmasters, they were in a place like the capital, where everyone meets. Grandmasters are not so common on weekdays. The ninth grade can be said to be the ceiling that people in the world can see. They are everywhere.
Enough to walk sideways.
Not long after, a beautiful host walked to the center of the venue. She was wearing a close-fitting dress similar to a cheongsam. She looked really graceful when she walked. Although the VIPs in the venue were surprised by her beauty, they couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
Eye.
"Xiaoyao Lou is really good at it." Zu An smiled. Although he doesn't care much about these beauties now, it is still a pleasing thing to appreciate an eye-catching beauty.
The beauty smiled sweetly and introduced the auction process and some rules to the audience. There should be a loudspeaker array in the venue, and her voice, even though she was average, could clearly reach every corner.
The first item of the auction soon began. The host picked up a brocade plate, untied the silk on it, and revealed a beautiful sapphire. She introduced with a smile: "This top-quality cornflower blue comes from Nanyang."
deep……"
It was so highly praised that the original owner, Zu An, was reluctant to sell it: "This woman's eloquence has reached the level of my world back then, and she is another top-notch anchor."
Zu An didn't expect that the first item to be auctioned would be his own. It seemed that Xiaoyao Tower was indeed very optimistic about this gem.
The starting price given by Xiaoyao Tower is 100,000 taels of silver, and each bid must not be less than 5,000 taels.
Soon the signs below were raised one after another. Although this sapphire is not very helpful in spiritual practice, it is very lethal to women. It is quite useful to buy it to please women.
However, when the price reached 150,000 taels, the frequency of shouting decreased, and only two or three people were left competing. After all, this thing was useless for practice, and everyone still had an expectation of value.
At this moment, a joking voice came from a box: "Two hundred thousand taels!"
Zu An frowned because he recognized the voice of the dead fish-eyed Sun Ji from before.
As soon as he said this, the whole audience suddenly fell silent. Although this gem was valuable, the price of 200,000 taels was obviously too much. In addition, many people recognized his identity, so naturally no one dared to compete with him.
.
"Is Mr. Sun going to pursue a girl from some family when I buy it back?"
"I heard that Mr. Sun was pursuing a stunning beauty named Qiu some time ago. I wonder if he bought it for her."
"Not necessarily, maybe just to let out a sigh of relief. Just now at the door..."
Soon the people below were whispering, and the conflict that had just occurred outside spread throughout the place.
The tit-for-tat confrontation between the two jade card owners made those people eat melon seeds with excitement.
Sun Ji was already standing at the window, enjoying the awe and shock of everyone's eyes. He usually loves to be in the limelight, so even in Xiaoyao Tower where everyone wears a mask to remain mysterious, he doesn't mind revealing his true identity.
Zu An thought, is this guy Shabi? He obviously doesn't want to deal with me, but he still gives me more money?
Soon the waiter at Xiaoyao Tower delivered the sapphire to Sun Ji's box. Then Sun Ji was playing with the gem in his hand and suddenly slapped it on the railing. The sapphire immediately fell into pieces.
There were exclamations in the audience, and people in Xiaoyao Tower were also anxious: "Master, what are you doing?"
Sun Ji replied: "It's okay, I just bought it and listened to it, and the money I should give will be given to me."
The people in Xiaoyao Building breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that he would pay the bill as promised.
But everyone else was shocked, two hundred thousand taels of silver just to hear a sound?
Isn’t this too inhumane?
People who didn't know Sun Ji began to inquire about who this place was.
Even the old man Yang Long frowned and whispered in Sun Ji's ear: "Sir, this is too wasteful. I'm afraid I will blame him if I find out."
"Don't worry, if I get the money back from him after leaving Xiaoyao Tower, I won't lose anything but I will still be in the limelight. And the fact that that guy can put up such a gem for auction proves that he should have better and proper ones.
A big fat sheep, I will find a bigger and more beautiful one to give to Miss Qiu." Sun Ji was almost impressed by his wit.
Yang Long had a strange look on his face, thinking that he had underestimated the young master. Although he was usually arrogant, he knew who could and who could not be offended.
Like this guy this time, he is obviously not a reputable person in Yijun. Judging from the gems he took out, most of them came from Nanyang. Even if the opponent is a dragon from the sea tribe, he will have to lie down when he comes to Yijun's territory.
The people of Yi County are fierce, and demon sects and thieves are everywhere. It is common to rob wealthy businessmen and blame them directly on the demon sect bandits. This is a tacit secret among many people in the circle. After all, only relying on the imperial court
Salary, it is not that easy to live a carefree life.
So he stopped trying to persuade him and regarded Zu An as a dead person in his heart.
At this time, Sun Ji became more and more excited as he thought about it, and looked provocatively in the direction of Zu An: "Some people think that they can be equal to me with just a piece of broken stone. It's a pity that your pride is not worth mentioning in my eyes."
Everyone came to their senses, this was a proper grudge match.
Everyone was waiting to see how the owner of the other private room would respond, but considering the power of the Sun family, that person probably had no choice but to swallow his anger. It would be good if he could leave here safely.
Who would have thought that as soon as Sun Ji finished speaking, a black light flew out and hit him in the face instantly.
There was a loud snap, and then Sun Ji screamed and fell backwards. When he finally got up, his mouth was full of blood and several of his teeth were missing.
At this time, Zu An's figure also appeared at the window, smiled slightly and said: "Sorry, I also heard the sound."
