The sound coming from downstairs made Wu Xie feel very guilty. He always felt that something would happen to the stool he was sitting on. Wouldn't it explode?
Wu Xie looked around and saw Fatty and Zhang Qilin standing on both sides of him, feeling much calmer.
Jie Yuchen, who was opposite, was surprised to see Wuxie sitting in that position, but Lu Yao had been vaccinated in advance just now, so there was no surprise, mainly because the four of them were really rich now.
Lu Yao stared at Huo Xiangu. Does this old lady really not know this little brother? Wasn't he saved by my little brother back then? Do you really not recognize him or are you pretending not to recognize him?
Huo Xiuxiu stared at him curiously, "I heard Brother Xiaohua talk about you. He said that you are very powerful and can tell fortunes. Why do you keep staring at my grandma? Did you calculate something?"
Lu Yao blinked innocently and said earnestly: "Don't just believe this kind of lies to children. Things like your nine sects are extremely complicated. If I can really calculate them, I might be a genius on the spot because of leaking the secret." Lightning struck and he died suddenly."
"Then why are you staring at my grandma?"
"Your grandma is ready to bankrupt Wujia, but it doesn't work even if you look at it? She also said that she and grandma Wu are just growing up. Is this such a trick?"
Huo Xiuxiu looked at him in surprise, "You know? Then why didn't you stop Brother Wuxie? Aren't you and Brother Wuxie together? It's still too late to get up now."
Wuxie quickly turned to look at him, "What do you mean?"
"Light up the sky lanterns. I've never seen this before, but I've heard of it, right?"
After hearing the excitement, Wuxie asked with a pale face, "Light the sky lantern?"
At this time, the noise below was getting louder and louder. A female emcee wearing a cheongsam stood on the stage and said to the surroundings: "The auction is about to start. Please keep quiet in the venue so that the waiters can start distributing auction lists and tickets." Mudra.”
Lu Yao asked doubtfully: "Why are you getting up? Didn't your grandma say that as long as you sit down until four-thirty, you will tell Wu Xie everything? In just half an hour, our mistress is still brave enough?"
Lu Yao looked at the female emcee standing on the stage, with long hair shawl, slender waist and long legs. She looked like a lady in the Republic of China wearing a cheongsam, and suggested enthusiastically: "Wuxie, do you know why your Wushan Residence is in decline? ? The ostentation is not enough. If you behave like this in Wushan Julai, the custodians will come like clouds."
Wu Xie looked at Lu Yao with a pale face, "Are you still concerned about this?"
Lu Yao said with an innocent face: "I don't care about this. What are you going to pay back after lighting the sky lanterns?"
Wu Xie's face was ugly, and Fatty's face was even more ugly. Although the Crescent Hotel had not lit up sky lanterns for many years, he had also lit up three sky lanterns in the past to win the beauty's return. I have heard that three sky lanterns almost burned down most of Jiumen's family property.
Isn't this old lady simply trying to trick Wu Xie?
The screen behind them was moved, and the guy who invited them up before came in with a tray lined with red cloth. There was a hard-covered booklet in the tray.
Seeing Wu Xie sitting in the right seat, he was stunned. It took him a long time to react, and he asked in a hasty tone: "Xiangu, is this friend sitting in the wrong seat?"
Huo Xiangu chuckled and said: "Open your eyes. No one has dared to sit in this position for decades, but the things I took today can be considered a once-in-a-century event. The appearance of a few people who are desperate for their lives is considered a coincidence."
The old man didn't answer.
"You can give this young master another roster and take care of him."
The old man turned around immediately, and not long after, he filed in with several other men. The old man at the front was holding an auction brochure, and the man behind him was carrying a pot of the best Biluochun. Behind him were four beautiful little girls, holding the auction manual in their hands. Holding a plate of exquisite snacks.
Putting the refreshments in Wuxie's hand, the old man respectfully handed the auction brochure to Wuxie, "These are from the Crescent Hotel. If you have any other instructions, you can call us at any time."
Huo Xiangu said as if she was nostalgic: "Since Lord Zhang, no one has dared to light this sky lantern for a long time. You have given face to you old homeless people. From now on, no one in the world will know about it. , you have gained the reputation of a homeless man."
The innocent face was pale, and a pair of big eyes stared at Huo Xiangu faintly.
"It's a pity. It's so majestic for a while."
Lu Yao looked at Wu Xie mischievously, "Old lady, it's too early to say that now. I've heard that lighting sky lanterns at the Crescent Hotel means asking for a kiss. Our mistress does. After finishing this lamp, I might become the son-in-law of the Crescent Hotel!"
Wuxie threw the auction brochure in his hand fiercely, "Shut up!"
Lu Yao quickly dodged it, but the manual hit the fat man on the side.
"Innocent, don't forget each other even if you are rich or noble!"
Wu Xie was so angry that he wanted to throw the teapot away.
The fat man opened the manual and looked at Lu Yao with confusion, "Why is this thing here?"
On the page that the fat man opened was a large photo. The photo was an object that the four of them were very familiar with. There was a line of small words below the photo: Ghost Knot, Dragon Fish and Jade Seal.
They were familiar with this stuff. The iron knot that Lu Yao and his brother bought at Liulichang last time contained the Ghost Seal inside. There is still an iron rod that has not been untied.
The ghost seal in the photo and the ghost seal in their hands have exactly the same shape and characteristics.
The eyes of several people gathered together, and they had exactly the same doubts. Could it be that the Crescent Hotel sells fakes?
The fat man said, "Do you think I should inquire about the seller?"
Mrs. Huo next to her took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Don't ask. If the buyer here doesn't want others to know, no one can ask."
Lu Yao agreed with this point, "Fat brother, please stop for a moment. This place has been open for so many years, and its reputation must be guaranteed. You must not know the things they don't want you to know. If you really want to ask, When we arrive, if we can’t say anything, we will be silenced.”
"Besides, why are you in a hurry? No one is paying for the entire consumption today."
Wu Xie's face was already as white as that of Huo Xiangu next to her, but the only difference was that one was really white and the other was pale.
Today's auction has several emperors in the collection world. Liu Lisun is just one of them. Together with Mrs. Huo next to him, we can predict the scale of this auction.
Lu Yao asked Huo Xiangu curiously, "Old lady, if you can't even pay the liquidated damages after being photographed, how does the Crescent Hotel usually deal with it? Break a leg or chop off a hand."
Huo Xiangu probably didn't expect Lu Yao to ask this question. Her expression was obviously stunned for a moment, and then she chuckled and said, "I have never seen a living defaulter."
"Is the handling method so tough?"
"Back then, Lord Buddha lit sky lanterns here and gained most of Jiumen's family wealth. He didn't dare to break the contract."
