When Liu Haojia heard this, he cursed in his heart, "You are an old man and you are going to die soon. What use do you owe me a favor?" But that’s what he was thinking, but he couldn’t say that! So he rubbed his chin and after thinking for a long time, he said, "There really is a way!"
This time it was Xu Guogong's turn to be surprised! He turned around in surprise and said, "Don't fool me! Can you do something in such a short period of time?"
Liu Haojia snapped his fingers proudly and said, "I'm not bragging! My ability to train soldiers and fight is definitely not as good as my ability to make money! I don't dare to say anything else. Lord, you have the ability to start a business with one hundred taels of silver. In what age?" Will it reach the level of a junior within this year?"
Xu Guogong laughed and said: "That's not possible, or you have the ability! But don't interrupt. Now tell me what your idea is?"
Liu Haojia said lazily: "This is not a trivial matter! How about this, Lord Duke, after this auction, I will escort the silver back to the capital! You might as well contact more trustworthy nobles to go to the capital together with the north. Let’s sit down and discuss it with all the honorable nobles! This is a huge deal, the kind that can be passed down to the family, and the younger generation can’t eat it alone!”
Xu Guogong took a deep look at Liu Haojia and said slowly: "Okay, later, Father Liu will contact some old brothers and go to the capital together to sit down!"
Liu Haojia said with profound meaning: "But I think the Duke of Lai also knows a saying, every gain must come with a loss!"
Xu Guogong nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, I naturally know these things!"
Naturally, there was no way to continue the topic when it got to this point, so both parties changed the topic in a tacit understanding and began to discuss the auction items!
When midnight arrives, the last auction item finally appears, the Night Pearl!
At this time, the host had already shouted hoarse, but his face was still red and he was extremely excited! What happened tonight was enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life! He just heard him shout loudly: "My lords, now the time for everyone to pay attention has arrived! Our last auction item is about to be on stage!"
Before he finished speaking, his words caused a commotion among the guests! Everyone can't wait for Ye Mingzhu to appear! At this time, the host waved his hand to signal everyone to quiet down, and then said loudly: "I know everyone is eager to see what the luminous pearl looks like, but there are some things that must be said first! That is, he will interfere with the master of this luminous pearl!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this! Are you the pearl of the night, Luma? Even if it is Lu, Liu Bei will be fine riding a horse! But fortunately, everyone here is an important person, and no one interrupted the host.
At this time, the host took out a document from his arms, raised it and said loudly: "This document was provided to the villain by Master Liu, the commander of the Jinyi Guards. The content in it is beyond doubt! The villain will read it to everyone now!"
Then he read the contents of the document in detail, and the contents were exactly the same as what Liu Haojia showed Xu Guogong! So when everyone finished listening to the contents of this document, they all gasped and started talking in low voices! Many people immediately gave up! Whether a treasure is good or not, it must be played with life!
At this time, a maid came onto the stage holding the box, and then placed the box on the table! ! Then another maid took a candlestick and placed it on the table. At this time, the host waved his hand again, and in the blink of an eye, a large group of maids came out of nowhere and blew out all the lights in the garden! Even the lotus lanterns in the creek under the stage were extinguished one by one!
After the last lantern went out, the whole garden was pitch black! Only the weak moonlight shines in the garden, bringing a ray of light, but today is the last quarter of the moon, and the moonlight is not bright at all!
Everyone used their eyes to look at the stage, but there were curtains on three sides of the stage and a roof above their heads. The moonlight couldn't shine in at all, and they couldn't see clearly what the people inside were doing! Even the blurry figures couldn't be seen clearly, which made everyone even more anxious. They all opened their eyes wide and stretched their necks to look forward!
Suddenly, a green light beam appeared in the center of the stage, shooting straight towards the ceiling! Everyone was shocked at first, and then realized that the box must have been opened, and the four frames of the box bound the light of the night pearl.
Let it shine upward!
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but let out a burst of admiration! This light has almost caught up with the light of half a lantern!
At this time, I saw the host gently reaching out, taking out the luminous pearl from the box, and then gently placing it on the candlestick! There is a candle-thick indentation on the candlestick, which is used to remove the candle! Now it is safe to put the luminous pearl!
After the host stabilized Ye Mingzhu, he released his hand and stepped back! As soon as his hand left the pearl, the pearl immediately shined brightly, lighting up the entire stage! I can’t say how clear the photo is, at least the facial features of the people on the stage are visible!
It's just that this light is gleaming green, making the people on the stage look like ghosts! Everyone felt their hearts tightening when they thought about what they had just said about the early deaths of previous holders! But then greed came to mind. Who wouldn’t want such rare treasures? Maybe the first few holders died of illness inexplicably because their blessings were too thin and they couldn't hold them back! I'm not like those short-lived ghosts. Isn't this treasure worthy of being placed in my home?
So the two thoughts of greed and reason in everyone's hearts began to fight with each other over and over again! Against the backdrop of the gleaming green light, their faces looked extremely ferocious, but they didn't know it!
After everyone watched in silence for half a moment, the host reached out to pick off the luminous pearl and put it into the box! Then when the first light came on, I wonder who took a long breath? Then everyone made a lot of angry noises! It seems that everyone was very nervous just now!
At this time, the host said loudly: "Okay, gentlemen. You have seen everything you need to see. If it weren't for not having enough money, I would have wanted to take this luminous pearl home! Now the auction has officially begun, with a minimum price of three Thousand taels!"
But what greeted him was not enthusiastic bidding, but silence! Everyone was sitting in their seats, carefully considering whether to take action!
The host was not in a hurry, because Liu Haojia had anticipated this situation in advance! So I specifically told him to stay calm! And the price this time is also very low, just to get rid of it as soon as possible!
After a while, the host was a little frightened! He was afraid that this time the auction would not be successful! Because Liu Haojia told him that the Night Pearl must be auctioned off! If he sells it, he will receive a reward. If he cannot sell it, he will be punished!
