Zongwu: I can create skills

Of course, the government has its own rules in handling affairs. Although Fu Chengzong was sentenced to death, he did not execute it immediately. Instead, he would not be executed until after next autumn.
During this period of time, he will be imprisoned in the sky prison, and his family members will be separated. Among them, Fu Wanqing has nowhere to go, so Gu Xichao took him into the bodyguard bureau.
Of course, they only lived with the female relatives, after all, the two parties hadn't paid homage yet, Gu Xichao was not the kind of anxious person.
This matter ended like this. No one knew what role Luo Ying played in it, and no one doubted him. They only thought that Fu Chengzong's political opponents had obtained his evidence. No one had ever thought about Fu Chengzong's current fate. Just because of his daughter—is this considered a different kind of cheating?
In addition, after overtime corrections, the results of the first batch of applicants finally came out.
It's just that the result is very frustrating. Although there are seven to eight hundred people who participated in the exam, but the real score can reach more than eight hundred points, but only less than one-tenth, that is, more than 70 people.
And after Luo Ying's interview, half of the 70 people were eliminated. That is to say, only 800 of the 30 people successfully passed the two rounds of assessment.
This number is too small, such a small number of people can't even carry out the basic work after the opening of the Beijing branch.
Fortunately, this is only the first batch. In the next few months, the Escort will continue to recruit people, and one day it will be able to recruit all 300 people.
And before that, the more than 100 people that Luo Ying left on purpose will support the facade of the capital semicolon, and they will not return to the main account until the number of people in the capital semicolon itself reaches the standard—of course, these people are here Helping is also considered a business trip, not to mention double the salary, and the contribution is more, so the people who are left behind not only have no complaints, but are very happy, wishing to stay in the capital for a longer period of time.
"Auction invitation~||?"
A few more days passed, and the decoration of the Daqi Escort was completed. Luo Ying was planning to choose a good day to open it, but Huamanlou sent an invitation letter, which was about an auction.
"It's finally here. One of the most classic plots in the novel, the auction house dispute, is it finally going to be a bloody plot today?"
Luo Ying was looking forward to it, and it was finally her turn to pretend to be a slap in the face.
Gu Xichao said: "Well, the auction is hosted by the An family. It is said that there will be many treasures. The playboy thinks that the head of the house will be interested, so he specially asked someone to send one. Of course, if the head of the house is not interested, then I will decline. "Luo Ying said: "There is no need to refuse. Since I sincerely invite you, let's join in the fun. Anyway, I have nothing to do recently, and you will go when the time comes." "Okay."
Gu Xichao has nothing to do with herself, she just joins in the fun, it's no big deal.
In the evening, Luo Ying and Gu Xichao came to the location of the auction - the Lion Tower. This is the lair of An Shigeng, the current head of the An family. Many of the dirty lessons in the original book were done here.
Of course, this place usually entertains some distinguished guests, so in addition to being An Shigeng’s old nest, it is also a place specially used by An’s family to entertain distinguished guests, which is similar to the clubhouses of later generations—of course, there is no difference between a clubhouse and a high-end brothel. That's it.
It was getting late at this time, and there were already many people in the Lion House.
"V is so lively, it seems that a heavy treasure really appeared today."
Luo Ying and Gu Xichao came early and blended in with the crowd, appearing very low-key.
Gu Xichao explained from the side: "These are celebrities in the capital, and that one is 'Fengxuejian' Luo Shang, the chief escort of Longwei Escort.
The one with the hunchback is Zhou Qiwei, a famous martial artist in Beijing.
And that one is Hu Buxiu, the treasurer of the Xinglong Company in the capital city. Apart from his top-notch business acumen, this person also has strong martial arts. What he practices is "The Record of the Sleepless God". This martial art can keep him awake all the time.It is said that Hu Huxiu has not rested for more than ten years, but he still maintains a strong spirit. It is also true that he (the one who got the money) can always handle the company's affairs, and Xinglong's company is getting more and more prosperous. "" There is such a magical skill? "
Luo Ying said in surprise, he had heard of people who don't need to rest in his previous life, but it was a body mutation, but who knew that in this world, there are martial arts that can keep people mentally, it is worthy of the world of martial arts, what a strange thing There are martial arts.
"Of course there is, and it's not just "The God of Sleeplessness", some other martial arts also have similar effects. Many successful businessmen have practiced such martial arts. For example, Wan Sanqian, who we are familiar with, practiced "Tianmu Jue". This martial art can also keep people energetic all the time, and strengthen eyesight and mental arithmetic ability, it can make people see ten lines at a glance, never forget, and it is very magical."
It was not Gu Xichao who said this, but Lu Xiaofeng, I don't know when he came in, Huamanlou was standing beside him.
Chapter 170 The lively auction, the uneasy and kind An Shige..."
Luo Ying said hello: "Hello, Lu Xiaofeng, Brother Hua." "This distinction is too obvious."
Lu Xiaofeng complained: "You always call Huamanlou brothers and sisters, but you just call me by my name when you come to my place? Isn't it a little impolite?" Luo Ying shook her head: "No, I don't think so at all." Lu Xiaofeng: "..."
"Hehehe..."
Hua Manlou chuckled: "Brother Luo is really amazing, but I rarely see Lu Xiaofeng being so speechless, the last time was when he was facing Ximen Chuuxue." "What a bunch of bad friends. "
Lu Xiaofeng was speechless, looked at Gu Xichao who was pursing his lips, and asked, "By the way, don't you want to introduce the person behind you?"
Luo Ying asked back: "Do you still need me to introduce? Don't tell me that you haven't investigated the Daqi Escort Bureau. You probably already know the personnel composition inside?" Lu Xiaofeng was speechless again, although the fact is true, but you Is it really okay to say it directly?Can we still be friends?Gu Xichao said with a smile: "Gu Xichao, who is inlaid with the flag, has met Lu Daxia, a playboy." Hua Manlou said: "I have met Brother Gu.
"It's true for bosses, and it's true for you as employees."
Lu Xiaofeng was so angry that he died: "I am a hero, and Hua Manlou is the son? Do you want to be so distant?"
Luo Yingdao: "In fact, brother Gu also wants to call you son, but look at your appearance, how can you look like a son of everyone?" Brother Hua, in your capacity, shouldn’t you be standing here? Doesn’t Baimeilou have a box or something?” Huamanlou said, “Of course there is, but didn’t you see Brother Luo? I declined The arrangement of Anjia, anyway, is quite interesting down there, and there are many people and it will be lively." Luo Ying said indifferently: "Okay, it's up to you."
After finishing speaking, he continued to look at the decoration and layout of Baimei Building with great interest, and ignored the two of them.
Luo Ying thinks that he is low-key, but in fact, how is he low-key?
Luo Ying alone is just a one-kilowatt light bulb, which has attracted the attention of many people. Now with the addition of Huamanlou and Lu Xiaofeng, and Gu Xichao, who is not weaker than the three of them, the four of them gathered Together, they are simply a huge light source. Countless eyes are on the four of them intentionally or unintentionally. In the entire hall, the four of them have faintly become the center.
It's just that the people who appeared in the hall, although they were all responsible guests, were still much worse than Luo Ying and the other four, so no one came to bother them.
"Boss Wang of the Shunyuan Escort Bureau has arrived." "Pegasus Ranch, the owner of the shopping mall has arrived." "Dongming sent head Shan to arrive." "Huashan sent head Yue to arrive." "Wudang Taoist Xuansong arrived."" Master Shaolin Kongzhi has arrived." "The governor of Dongchang Cao has arrived." "The deputy governor of Xichang Yu has arrived." "Wu Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment has arrived." "The number one village in the world, the owner of Shangguan village has arrived."
When the time came to Haishi, more and more important figures arrived, including Luo Ying's acquaintances, but these people would not mix with ordinary people, and they went directly into the pre-arranged boxes without even taking a photo. "It turns out that the auction is fake, but making friends with people is real."
Luo Ying finally understood that the so-called auction might indeed contain great treasures, but the real purpose of Anjia holding this auction was not to make money, but to make connections.
Many of the people who came were big figures from famous schools and court forces, and some were even heads and power leaders. Through this auction, the An family didn't know how many more friends they would add.
Of course, everyone else thinks the same way. After all, everyone can communicate with each other at the meeting. Maybe they just have a good chat with someone and maybe become friends.
Even if they can't become friends, it can be regarded as having a relationship once, and it can be regarded as having a friendship. "That's what it was."
Gu Xichao smiled and said: "To be honest, at the beginning, I was afraid that you, the head of the family, would not want to come." Luo Ying said: "I just didn't think about it, if I figured it out, how could I not come? "
The Escort is open for business, so the more friends the better, Luo Ying never thought that the An family would invite so many people. If he had known that the An family had such a big face, he would have agreed faster. "Master An is here."
At this moment, the master of ceremonies announced the arrival of the last person, and it was the organizer of this auction—An Shigeng, the current principal of the An family. "Master An is good."
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Master An is still handsome."
"Master An, let's have a drink sometime. I think we can cooperate with each other if we have a business."
When An Shigeng appeared, everyone flocked to him, trying to curry favor with him.
An Shi Geng Ming also dealt with it with a smile on his face, but Luo Ying saw a hint of disgust in his eyes.
Luo Ying knew very well that An Shigeng was kind on the surface, but in fact he was sinister and cunning, ruthless, and the real culprit behind the fake copper coin case.
But at the same time, he is also a very proud person. Ordinary people are simply ignored by him, and he even disdains to make friends with them. If it is not for maintaining the personality, he will not contact these people at all.
At this time, An Shigeng saw the four of Luo Ying, apologized, pushed aside the crowd, and came in front of Luo Ying.
As soon as he came up, he said enthusiastically: "Your Excellency (agej) is the head of the bodyguard Luo Yingluo, right? You've heard of the name of head of bodyguard a long time ago, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation."
Luo Ying immediately replied: "Young Master An, you are the real God of Wealth, a young talent."
"Luo Shaoxia has won the award. Fifth, how did you arrange it? The head of the bodyguard bureau of the dignified flag is actually assigned here? It means Luo Shaoxia is open-minded, otherwise you want to live a good life?"
The latter words were scolding a steward of the Lion Tower.
"It's okay, I like to be lively."
Luo Ying smiled on the surface, but she was upset in her heart. This An Shigeng has no good intentions, what is being arranged here?What do you mean wanting to live a better life?
There is a bit of thorn in this remark. On the surface, he is saying that he has a high status and should not be placed in the lobby. He is open-minded and does not want to help others see.
But in fact, it is openly praising and secretly belittling, and even provokes the relationship between himself and other people.
Sure enough, as soon as An Shigeng said this, Luo Ying noticed that someone was looking at her angrily, and the others were also frowning slightly, showing displeasure.
Luo Ying sneered in her heart, it was really a joke to sow discord, she easily put herself in the target of public criticism.
Although Luo Ying couldn't understand why An Shigeng was so hostile to him, he was not a person who could swallow his anger. If he didn't return the enemy's provocation, then he wouldn't be called Luo Ying anymore.
He glanced at An Shigeng up and down: "Speaking of which, Luo also knows a little bit of medical skills, so I just helped Mr. An take a look. I don't know if Mr. An feels stuffy in his chest recently? And he still has needle-like pain from time to time. ?”
An Shigeng was surprised: "There is indeed such a situation, and it only appeared recently. Is there any problem?"
Luo Ying shook her head with a smile, and said, "It's not a big problem, it's just going crazy."
"puff!"
In an instant, everyone sprayed, isn't it a big problem to go crazy?
An Shigeng felt even more uncomfortable, his face turned blue and red, but finally he felt that his body was more important, he gritted his teeth, bowed and said: "Since Brother Luo can see Shi Geng's problem, he has a solution, if that's the case, please Brother Luo didn't hesitate to save me, I will definitely thank you afterwards."
Luo Ying smiled and said: "It's easy to talk, easy to talk, after the auction is over, let's talk slowly."
An Shigeng quickly said: "Okay, then it's a deal."
"My lord, it's almost time."
At this time, a person behind An Shigeng reminded.
An Shigeng immediately apologized and said: "I'm sorry, Brother Luo, I'll take my leave first."
"Please, Mr. An."
After sending An Shigeng away, Gu Xichao leaned close to Luo Ying's ear and whispered: "Master, this An Shigeng is not kind." Luo Ying said calmly, "I know."
Gu Xichao was taken aback for a moment: "Then you...are the head of the house trying to scare him?"
Luo Ying shook her head and said: "No, he is really sick, and it is very serious. No one in this world can save him except me." He did not lie about this, An Shigeng's health is indeed problematic .
It should be that he was too impatient to practice the thaumaturgy of the Western Regions, so that he left hidden wounds in his body. After the hidden wounds erupted, the insanity would still be mild.
After all, Western Thaumaturgy is not an orthodox martial art. Although it can be done quickly, there are actually many taboos, and the damage to the body is very heavy. It is a quick-improvement method by overdrawing the body's potential. Many people who practice Western Region Thaumaturgy have a hard time living past 40 age.
The reason why An Shigeng and An Yunshan didn't die suddenly was also because they were rich and bought a lot of life-saving things, which delayed their deaths.
It's just that An Shigeng didn't wait for his hidden wounds to explode on his own, and was defeated by the four famous arresters because of the crime of counterfeiting copper coins.
Luo Ying even suspected that the reason why An Shigeng failed to use the western escapism in the end was also because of the outbreak of hidden wounds in his body.
Otherwise, with his cautious character, if he is not sure enough, it is impossible to use the escape technique, but he didn't know that there was a hidden wound in his body, so that he was stabbed by Ji Yaohua, which detonated the hidden wound in advance, and then unknowingly released it. When Shi Geng was using the escape technique, he was disturbed by the hidden injury, the escape technique failed, and finally became a living dead.
Chapter 171 The Auction Begins
Regarding Luo Ying's answer, Gu Xichao was even more surprised: "Then you who are in charge mean..."
Since An Shigeng is not a good person, and Luo Ying can see it, why should he remind him?
"It's good to be sick, if you are sick, can't we make a lot of money?"
Luo Ying didn't say anything else, that is, anyway, An Shigeng's injury is probably not clear to him himself, how to treat it, or is it up to himself?
"Forehead……"
Gu Xichao was speechless, and at the same time mourned An Shigeng silently in his heart, meeting Luo Ying, An Shigeng was unlucky for you, judging from Luo Ying's tone, this is the rhythm of being blackmailed to death.
Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou who were listening were also speechless, not knowing what to say.
"Ding!~"
At this moment, a bell rang, attracting everyone's attention, and An Shigeng's figure appeared on the second floor.
"Welcome everyone..."
After a nondescript prologue, the auction began.
"The first lot is a square bronze tripod with auspicious beast patterns on the Nine Dragons of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. This tripod is three feet high and weighs two thousand catties. It has..."
Following the auctioneer's introduction, a huge bronze tripod was lifted up by the warriors. The tripod's shape is simple and elegant, and its decoration is exquisite. At first glance, it is extraordinary.
Hua Manlou was even more surprised and said, "I didn't expect that the first item to be auctioned would be this item. It seems that the An family really spent a lot of money this time."
Luo Ying asked curiously: "What? What is the origin of this thing?"
"This thing is the treasure of the Yueyang Xiong family. The Xiong family is said to be a descendant of the Chu State during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. This tripod is their family heirloom.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, King Zhuang of Chu was ambitious and intended to win the Central Plains. After failing, he imitated Jiuding to cast nine big bronze tripods, which were engraved with pictures of nine kinds of auspicious beasts, but eight of them were lost in history due to various reasons. Lost, only this dragon pattern tripod has been handed down.
Although the Yueyang Xiong family has declined in recent years, they should not be underestimated. They cherish the Longwen Ding even more, let alone sell it, even if outsiders can't take a look at it, they don't know what price the An family paid. Only then did Xiong take it out. "
If not, the auctioneer's next introduction was exactly the same as what Hua Manlou said.
"It turns out that there is such an allusion in it."
Although Luo Ying was surprised, she didn't take it seriously. To put it bluntly, this is just a special antique. If it is placed in later generations, it will indeed be regarded as a national treasure, but in the world of martial arts, it is just an antique.
Besides, Luo Ying is also familiar with the methods of the auction house.
In an auction, there are two most important stages, the opening and the finale. The treasures in these two stages are the most precious.
The reason why the good things were brought out at the beginning was to set off the atmosphere. After the atmosphere is up, everyone can accept the more ordinary treasures.
As for the finale... To be precise, it is the finale, the last treasure. Naturally, the best is used, so that the guests can end the auction at its climax and increase their impression of the auction.
The opening treasure turned out to be just an antique, which gave Luo Ying the illusion that this auction was just like that.
