Huan Ci took a bite and felt that the pastry was soft, waxy and sweet at the back of his mouth.
"Not bad." She complimented casually, took out a piece of broken silver and threw it on the table, "It's a reward for you. You can go out now."
"How can this be done?" The man glanced at Yinzi with a smile, raised his brows slightly, and sat down next to Huan Ci with eyes full of eyes. "Young master is new here, so naturally he doesn't understand the rules here. Later, the auction in the pavilion will be held.
Don’t you want to know something, Master?”
"this--"
Huan Ci secretly glanced at Fu Shen's captivating gaze across from him, and after much hesitation, he finally spoke and left him.
After all, this person is of some use, and Fu Shen and the others also have two women pouring wine, one dressed more seductively than the other. If they can do it, why can't she?
"Tell me, what are the rules?" Huan Ci asked, holding his head.
The waiter poured her a full glass of wine and explained: "Duanqinlou holds such a grand meeting in the pavilion every six months. Interested wealthy people from Bingzhou City and even all over the country will gather here, and there will be people selling things.
There are also people shopping.
Here, you can find many rare things that you can’t buy elsewhere. Things will come out one by one in a while, and the prices will gradually increase.”
Before he could finish speaking, Huan Ci had roughly guessed the rules and looked curiously at the bottom of the building.
The lights were re-lit on the first floor, and a sapphire table was placed. No one knew what treasure was placed on it, but it was completely covered by a piece of red cloth.
Suddenly there was an exclamation in the crowd. Huan Ci followed their gaze and saw a woman on the second floor stairs going downstairs wearing a red dress that was barely covering up but still embarrassing.
Swaying step by step, the woman covered her face and exposed her seductive eyes. Wherever she looked, there was a burst of sighs and admiration, and occasionally there were a few dirty words from men.
This kind of beauty is rare even for Huan Ci. She wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and motioned the waiter to move away from the obstructive table in front of her and move to the railing to have a better look.
The woman moved lightly, walked to the sapphire table and sat down, and everyone fell silent instantly.
"Today, Haitang will introduce each item to you." Her slender fingers slowly opened the red cloth, and it turned out that underneath was a fine crystal inkstone.
Huan Ci was not interested in the inkstone. He could only hear her sweet voice constantly reaching his ears, introducing the variety and origin of the crystal inkstone to everyone.
She lazily raised her eyelids to look at Fu Shen opposite. The man still maintained his original posture, but this time there was a woman beside his legs. The two of them were talking about something unknown, and the woman was still laughing so hard.
Different from Fu Shen's casualness, Zong Zhenglu was holding a glass of wine and staring intently at the woman downstairs with a very serious expression.
Are they the ones who set up the situation, or are they the ones who join in the situation?
Huan Ci rubbed his fingers and kept looking at the rest of the place.
She didn't know why, but she had the gut feeling that Zong Zhengche was here. The woman downstairs looked so similar to Liu Rao in both eyes and figure, and she knew she was here for Zong Zhenglu.
With the beauty's introduction, the crystal inkstone was quickly bought at a high price.
New and good things were brought up one after another. Most of the speeches were not interesting, and they soon fell asleep after listening to them.
"The last treasure tonight - the Imperial Seal."
The jade seal passed down from the country?
Huan Ci suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously glanced at Zong Zhenglu opposite him.
The man's expression remained unchanged, and he glanced at Huan Ci briefly, and then looked at Haitang downstairs.
Haitang held the treasure in her hand mysteriously and said: "The day Haitang entered Duanqin Tower, he swore to God that he would follow the most noble man in the world from now on. In the past two years, domestic wars have been frequent, and the national jade seal has been lost.
Outside, Haitang took it out specially today just to return it to the young master and invite him to come downstairs to see her."
After saying that, she slowly raised her head and looked at the private room where Zong Zhenglu was.
