Madam, she's a full-time boss

As soon as Gu Nan returned to her private room, Tang Wei and Huangfu Xixian looked at her at the same time.

"Why did it take so long?"

Without saying a word, Gu Nan walked straight back to her seat and looked at the display stand.

"Has the person who came to auction the rubbings appeared?"

At present, according to the internal information of Shunyuanju, someone is indeed planning to sell a piece of rubbings, but the people of Shunyuanju are very careful about the privacy protection of customers, and will not easily disclose the identity information of the other party.

Therefore, she had to come to the scene and wait in person.

"Not yet. Judging from the list of auction items, this rubbing is ranked 37th, and now it has reached 35th. It will be its turn soon."

Auction No. 36 came to an end soon. After some explanation, the host said loudly, "Next, we will ask our Miss Manners to deliver Auction No. 37 to the auction stage."

As the host finished speaking, a hostess in a red cheongsam walked gracefully onto the auction stage with a tray.

The host's magnetic voice sounded: "Our exhibit is quite special. I am personally very interested in this exhibit. It looks ordinary, but it has a mysterious veil attached to it. I personally feel that archeology experts and writing experts Should be very interested in it."

As the host finished speaking, the red cloth on the tray was lifted, revealing a black stone the size of a palm. The stone was flat with irregular corners, like a scattered piece of a puzzle.

The host raised his hand to pick up the black stone, and the camera showed a super clear close-up, and several strange text symbols were clearly seen on the big screen behind him.

"This stone looks like jade but not jade. Judging from its material, it does not belong to jade, but it has the warm, soft and smooth touch of jade. At present, it does not belong to any minerals that we know. There are several sculptures on it. Strange patterns, I think these patterns are like some kind of characters, I wonder if there are any experts here who study ancient characters? If you know what these patterns are useful for, you can come on stage and explain a little bit.”

At this time, an old man hurried onto the auction stage.

"I will not sell this stone."

"Old man, why didn't you sell it all of a sudden?" After the host was astonished, he hurriedly asked the old man for his opinion.

There was an uproar at the scene, and everyone looked at the old man curiously.

"Is this the owner of the black stone?"

"Why didn't the old man sell it suddenly? I think this stone is of great research value, and I plan to buy it." A scholar said.

"I also think this stone is very special. It seems to be left by some ancient tribal civilization. Maybe they are used to learning characters on stones, but this stone is very rare, and I don't know what its composition is."

In the private room

As soon as Gu Nan saw the old man who suddenly appeared on the auction stage, a dark light flashed in his cold eyes.

Grandpa Zhu?

He turned out to be the auctioneer of this rubbing?

Mr. Zhu looked very anxious. He reached out and snatched the stone from the host, put it in his pocket, turned around and rushed off the stage.

The old man has bad legs and feet, but his speed is astonishingly fast, and he looks very anxious.

"Nan Yi, he is Zhu Qingqing's grandfather, right?" Huangfu Xixian recognized the old man Zhu.

Gu Nan nodded: "Go and have a look."

Huangfu Xixian and Tang Wei followed Gu Nanyi out of the private room, and when Mr. Zhu walked to the gate of the auction venue, Gu Nanyi stopped him.

"Grandpa Zhu."

When Mr. Zhu saw Gu Nan appearing here, his expression was astonished.

"Nan Yi? Why are you here?"

"I was invited to participate in tonight's auction, Grandpa Zhu, why did you temporarily refuse to auction this stone?"

Zhu Lao looked anxious, and his eyes turned red.

"Qingqing...Qingqing was kidnapped, and the other party asked me to exchange this stone."

"Zhu Qingqing was kidnapped? We had dinner together just now." Huangfu Xixian looked surprised.

Gu Nan's expression was slightly cold.

Zhu Qingqing should have been kidnapped on the way home, and the other party's purpose was for the rubbings.

It seems that Shunyuanju's so-called zero risk of customer confidentiality is just a gimmick.

"Grandpa Zhu, calm down first. What the other party wants is the stone in your hand. As long as the stone is in your hand, they will not hurt Zhu Qingqing. I will accompany you to save people."

Elder Zhu nodded gratefully: "The other party asked me to meet at a nearby cafe. I'm going to use this stone to rescue Qingqing."

"Let's go." Gu Nanyi didn't ask any more questions about Shitou, because saving people is the most important thing right now.

After they left, the door of private room 01 opened, and a young man hurried into the private room.

"Master, Gu Nanyi followed Mr. Zhu to that coffee shop."

The man was playing with the prayer beads in his hand, and his slender fingers stopped slowly.

"Tell Qingyang, after Gu Nan passes by, let him let him go without doing anything."

The man frowned, and looked suspiciously at the back of the man sitting in front of the tea table: "Master, we finally found a wafer, why did we give it to Gu Nanyi?"

The man's thin lips were lightly raised, and a very shallow smile appeared on his calm and indifferent face.

"Jingyuan has been scattered all over the world, even if you get this one, it's useless. Since Gu Nanyi is also looking for Jingyuan's whereabouts, as long as our people keep an eye on her, we won't be afraid that Jingyuan won't be found."

The man instantly understood the meaning of the master, and he said: "The crystal stone is the spiritual transmission tool of the Pleiades galaxy. It is said that only people in the Pleiades galaxy can have a spiritual connection with the crystal. Why did Gu Nanyi look for the crystal? Does she have anything to do with the Pleiades galaxy?"

"Okay, these are not things you should guess, go and inform Qingyang."

Seeing that the master didn't want to talk more, the man nodded respectfully and exited the private room.

in the room

The man continued to turn the beads, and there was no emotion in those calm eyes.

*

Gu Nanyi, Tang Wei, Huangfu Xixian, and Mr. Zhu came to the coffee shop together.

There were a few scattered tables of customers on the first floor of the coffee shop. Seeing them enter the door, a front desk staff member at the bar picked up his mobile phone and quickly sent a message.

Mr. Zhu looked around, but he didn't see Zhu Qingqing. He took out his mobile phone tremblingly, and when he was about to make a call, a strange man came down the stairs.

The man walked up to them: "He's upstairs, come with us."

Elder Zhu anxiously went up to the second floor, and came to the door of a private room, the man pushed open the door.

"go in."

As soon as Gu Nan looked into the private room, there were more than a dozen people in the room, so she walked in first.

Zhu Qingqing was sitting on the chair in front of the table at the moment, with two young men sitting beside her.

One of the men looks fair and gentle, and looks very kind. At this moment, he is looking at Gu Nanyi with a smile.

"Why are there so many people here? Didn't you agree that you would come by yourself?" The man's eyes turned to Mr. Zhu with a questioning tone.

Zhu Laodao: "Don't worry, we didn't come here to fight, and we didn't call the police to notify the police. I brought that stone, and this thing is for you. You should release my granddaughter soon."

"Grandpa!" Zhu Qingqing stood up and wanted to run over, but the man next to her grabbed her wrist and pulled her back onto the chair.

The man turned his face and looked at Mr. Zhu.

"Bring something here."

Old Zhu took out the stone from his pocket, and when he was about to deliver it to the man, Gu Nan blocked his way with his hand.

Her eyes looked straight at the leading man.

"You are from the Illuminati."

Hearing the word "Illuminati", the leader's expression was slightly condensed, and he looked straight at Gu Nan with indifferent eyes.
