Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning
Chapter 123 Qionglou 3
Wu Xie didn't feel comfortable sitting in the box, so he sat outside like Xie Yuchen. But as soon as he sat down, Old Mrs. Huo came out surrounded by a group of people.
As soon as Old Mrs. Huo came, she took advantage of her seniority and kept calling Wu Xie "Old Dog Wu" which made Wu Xie very angry.
Ah Ning smiled and said to Mrs. Huo: "Old lady, you are old now. I am afraid you don't know that the Nine Gates is only a name now. You thought that you, the head of the Huo family, still have the final say in the Nine Gates."
"However, I think that even if Huo Xiuxiu looks outstanding, it will be difficult for the Huo family to reverse the decline. After all, you are still reluctant to give up your power. When will Miss Huo have a chance to practice?"
Old Mrs. Huo's face suddenly turned pale, and even Huo Xiuxiu was at a loss to smooth things over.
Mrs. Huo sneered after a long while: "What a clever little girl you are. I just don't know where you come from."
Aning remained calm and continued to smile, "My last name is Jiang, and I'm not from any of the Nine Gates."
"Wu Xie and I are in a very close relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, and we are going to get married in the future. This is very different from your relationship as a husband and wife who is having a surrogate birth. To be honest, you are truly a role model for our generation. After hearing about the Huo family's deeds, I also want to go to a foreign institution for IVF."
Who is stronger, Aning? Wu Xie had to pinch his thigh to ensure that he would not laugh out loud. The fat man and Jiang Xinxin sitting on the stools next to him could only lower their heads and pretend to give Aning a thumbs up.
Seeing that Zhang Qiling, who was sitting in the middle, was not sociable, the fat man quickly nagged him twice. Zhang Qiling realized it belatedly and gave him a thumbs up. Now even Xie Yuchen on the opposite side couldn't help but turn his head and laugh, and Wu Xie even burst out laughing.
Wu Xie quickly took over Aning's words and pretended to scold her: "Aning, how could you do this? Even if the old lady is taking advantage of her age, we can't act like juniors. Even for Xiuxiu's sake, some things can't be said so directly."
Ah Ning gave Wu Xie a pretentiously sidelong glance, which made Wu Xie blush. Then he chuckled and said, "Okay, you are the third young master of the Wu family, you have the final say."
Mrs. Huo's plan to use her seniority to put pressure on others was thwarted. Wu Xie and Aning could see it, and Huo Xiuxiu could see it too, so she just stood behind Mrs. Huo anxiously, and even though both sides were swearing at each other, she didn't say a word.
But now that things have reached a stalemate, it is necessary for her to speak up.
"Brother Wu Xie, Miss Aning, since we are all interested, why don't we cooperate?"
Wu Xie also followed Huo Xiuxiu's words and said: "Of course we can discuss cooperation, but if the Huo family joins in the middle, they must come up with something useful and real, otherwise I'm afraid they can only be a figurehead."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huo glanced at Wu Xie with contempt and said nothing, but her meaning was very clear: she felt that Wu Xie's words were a bit too grand and empty.
Old Mrs. Huo had already recognized Aning as Qiu Dekao's right-hand man. Seeing that Aning and Wu Xie had a close relationship, she thought that it was Qiu Dekao's instruction, so she secretly ordered people to investigate Qiu Dekao's recent movements, but let Wu Xie go, even though Wu Xie did not need it.
Soon, the auction began. Who would have thought that the first item taken out would be the Ghost Seal. The whole audience exclaimed in surprise and there was constant discussion.
Wu Xie immediately turned to look at Zhang Qiling and Jiang Xinxin. Zhang Qiling took a glance and confirmed that the ghost seal below was the real thing, so Wu Xie made up his mind to get the ghost seal.
But Jiang Xinxin stopped him and said, "That thing is real, but it is useless to us now. Let's not waste money."
Almost everyone in the circle has heard of the Ghost Seal, but many people don't know what it is used for. However, this thing is a very rare piece just based on its craftsmanship and historical background. Even if it is not used to open the bronze door, it itself is a priceless treasure.
Wu Xie confirmed again and again: "Miss Jiang, is that thing really useless to us?"
As Jiang Xinxin spoke, she had already taken back all the Yin and spiritual energy in the Ghost Seal, leaving only a trace of spiritual energy to maintain its so-called "spirituality" in the eyes of the world. At this moment, even if Zhang Qiling used it to open the bronze door, the Ghost Seal would not be able to open the door.
Jiang Xinxin nodded and confirmed: "The Ghost Seal is no longer useful. It can only become a priceless antique."
Jiang Xinxin spoke to Wu Xie without avoiding the listening slaves, who quickly passed the news to Yin Nanfeng's ears. Yin Nanfeng quickly knocked on Zhang Rishan's door and told him that the Ghost Seal was no longer useful to Wu Xie, which also surprised Zhang Rishan.
Originally, Mrs. Huo wanted to use the Ghost Seal to trick Wu Xie into losing his money, but seeing that Wu Xie just looked at it and didn't show any interest in it, she felt a little disappointed. She could only find another opportunity to dampen the arrogance of Wu Xie, the "Third Master".
After the auction was over, Xie Yuchen invited everyone to his car, and then asked them why they didn't bid for the Ghost Seal.
Wu Xie repeated Jiang Xinxin's words, and Xie Yuchen was quite happy. "That's good. From now on, brother won't have to guard the Bronze Gate anymore, and we, the Nine Gates, won't have to bear the reputation of being treacherous."
Wu Xie asked something else: "Xiao Hua, how are you arranging the staff? We want to take this opportunity to do something big, you can't mess it up."
Xie Yuchen was somewhat speechless: "When have you ever seen me hold back?"
Everyone laughed, and after that, Xie Yuchen said seriously, "I've also thought about taking this opportunity to slim down the Xie family. For so many years, I've been supporting the Xie family by myself, and I'm actually a little tired. The Nine Gates no longer need to be saved. In fact, the Xie family has only had some dealings with the Wu family and the Huo family over the years. If it weren't for the friendship between us younger generations, it would have been the same as the other families long ago."
Fatty laughed loudly just now, but his relationship with Xie Yuchen was just like that. In fact, it was all based on Wu Xie's face, so at this moment he was just a little surprised and a little emotional: "These nine sects from south to north have suppressed the underworld for who knows how many years. If you, the younger generation of the nine sects, really want to work on your own, then people like Liu Lisun will be very happy..."
Ah Ning agreed with Xie Yuchen's decision: "I heard that your Xie family used to do more than just underground business. Now that you have transformed, it can be regarded as a return to your ancestral business."
Jiang Xinxin directly gave the direction of transformation: "There are so many rare creatures underground. The Xie family can definitely establish a special research institute. When the results overflow a little, it will be enough to make a lot of money."
"Anyway, in the future, apart from the computer industry, the medical industry will be the only industry that will last long."
"If you are short of money right now, you can go into real estate to make some quick money, or you can go to America to make some money when the financial crisis comes in a few years."
Xie Yuchen wrote down these things and repeatedly said that if he really made a profit, he would definitely give Jiang Xinxin a share. Jiang Xinxin waved her hand and refused directly: "If you really want to thank me, why not take care of Zhang Qiling? I will leave sooner or later, but Zhang Qiling needs someone to take care of him."
Xie Yuchen agreed seriously, feeling a long-lost sense of relief in his heart.
