Reincarnation of Meow Fairy
Work related
At this time, Qingqian, who was wearing sportswear, jogged over from a distance. He was as afraid of Jingxuan as Yunshen. When his eldest brother was at home, he didn't even dare to sleep in. He got up early in the morning to exercise and pretended to be a good child.He ran to the flowers and saw Jing Xuan teasing the cat. He felt very curious: "Brother, where did this cat come from?"
Jing Xuan was busy scratching Yun Shenmiao's chin, and said casually, "It's probably a wild cat that came in from outside."
Qing Qian leaned over, reached out and tugged Yun Shenmiao's beard: "Little one, where did you come from?"
It hurts, brother bastard.
Yun Shenmiao was angry, and the cat's claws slapped Qingqian's face, not to yank this fairy's beard!
Qingqian was shocked: "You still beat people?"
Jing Xuan hugged Yun Shenmiao away, while blaming Qing Qian: "Okay, okay, why bother with the cat as an adult. Go and wake Yun Shen up, the garden and pond over the old house should have been cleaned up."
Qing Qian shyly refused to leave: "Brother, let's keep this cat, recently my circle of friends has become popular to raise small animals."
When Yun Shenmiao heard this, she struggled and jumped out of Jing Xuan's arms.I hate it, I don’t want you to raise it, if I lock up this fairy with a cage, it will be over, I am a cat who wants to do big things.
It jumped onto the grass, nimbly burrowed into the grass and disappeared. Jingxuan looked at Qingqian and shrugged: "It seems that they don't want you to keep it. Don't mess with me, go and wake Yunshen up. "
☆, Shao's old house
When Qingqian knocked on the door, Yunshen had already fled back to her room quickly and changed back into human form, pretending to put on clothes in front of the mirror.Seeing that the imprint of the cat's paw pad still remained on Qingqian's face, he secretly smiled inwardly.The two went downstairs to have breakfast together, and when they reached the dining room, Yun Shen glanced at the table and asked with some disappointment, "Is there no fish?"
Qingqian sat down next to him, with a puzzled look on her face: "What kind of fish do you eat early in the morning?"
Yun Shen felt a little regretful, a while ago he was always the only one at home, so he just had porridge for breakfast.Now that the two elder brothers are at home, and the family of three is gathered together, how can we not celebrate by eating a few fat and big fish.
Humans really don't know how to enjoy.
Jing Xuan sat on the other side of the dining table and read the newspaper, and casually said to Aunt Wang, "Aunt Wang, go get some fish for Yun Shen, you can do whatever you want."
Aunt Wang nodded, and asked Yun Shen kindly: "There is no fresh fish at home, can you use canned tuna to make some sandwiches for Master Yun Shen?"
Yun Shen had just eaten Jingxuan's sandwich in the garden, was thinking about it, and nodded quickly: "Okay."
Qingqian became anxious, and stretched out her hand to tear off Jingxuan's newspaper: "Brother, you can't spoil him like this, you will spoil Yunshen!"
Jing Xuan looked at him: "I spoiled you a lot when I was young, didn't I spoil you?" He said thoughtfully, "...it seems that I was really spoiled..."
Qingqian blushed, and immediately turned her head away, not wanting to continue this topic. He didn't want Jing Xuan to turn on him, recalling the ugly things like playing with mud and urinating his pants when he was a child.Jing Xuan's memory is really good, if he started nagging, he would definitely be endless, Qing Qian felt a chill when he thought of that scene.
He muttered and reluctantly obeyed Jing Xuan: "...forget it, it's okay to eat some fish in the morning every once in a while, to replenish your brain."
Jing Xuan glanced at him with a half-smile, then lowered his head to read the newspaper again.
After a few minutes, Aunt Wang brought the sandwich, and Yun Shen immediately started to eat it.The practice of sandwiches came from abroad. Yun Shen had never seen it when he was in Immortal Realm, but now he tasted it and found it to be very novel and delicious.Seeing Yun Shen eating happily, Aunt Wang was also very happy: "Master Yun Shen, if you like it, I will make it for you every day from now on."
Yun Shen stuffed his mouth, puffed his cheeks and nodded.
Qing Qian was speechless, and wiped the bread crumbs from the corner of his mouth with a napkin: "Eat slowly, can you be a little more polite."
Yun Shen tried his best to swallow what was in his mouth: "Brother, do you want to eat? It's delicious."
Qing Qian turned her head: "I don't want it, I hate eating fish."
Yun Shen persisted: "Take a bite, it's really delicious. The canned tuna is very fresh, and it's not fishy at all."
Qing Qian still turned her head: "If you say no, then don't. Do you want to force your brother to eat or something? You are so brave!"
At this time, Jing Xuan raised his head from the newspaper, and said with a half-smile: "Qing Qian, eat fish to nourish your brain, don't forget what you said just now."
Qingqian was furious: "Are you beating around the bush and making fun of me for being stupid? You two bastards teamed up to bully me!"
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhao stood by and laughed, the quiet Shao residence hadn't been this lively for a long time.Ever since the husband and wife of the Shao family passed away, Yun Shen was in a coma, and Jing Xuan and Qing Qian were always getting together less often, and the house was often empty.
Although neither of them like to talk about their thoughts, they both seem to blame themselves for not fulfilling their responsibilities as sons and brothers.Now that Yun Shen is finally safe and sound, they must all feel very happy.
After breakfast after arguing for a while, Jing Xuan took Yun Shen to see the pond, but Qing Qian didn't come with him because he still wanted to go back to sleep.Not far from Shao's house is the back mountain, where the garden and pond are at the foot of the mountain, and there is an old old house nearby.
In fact, this is the old house of the Shao family. In the early years, it was relatively prosperous. Later, the number of family members increased, and the relatives gradually separated, and the place gradually became deserted.The old house is currently managed by Jingxuan, and several people have been hired to watch it. Usually, they are responsible for ventilating the old house, weeding the garden, watering the flowers, and spending most of the rest of the time basking in the sun.
Therefore, Jingxuan packed up the place and used it, and the guard workers were also very happy. They finally didn't have to be idle to panic.
There are three employees, the leader is Uncle Wang, who is about 40 years old, and Aunt Wang, who works in Shao's house, is a couple.Uncle Wang is very kind, and treats Yun Shen very politely: "Master Yun Shen, if you need anything here, just ask. Everyone is free all day, and I am happy to help you run errands."
Yun Shen nodded and looked around.The garden was bigger than he had imagined. There were some duckweed floating on the surface of the pond, which was connected to the small river at the foot of the mountain. The water quality was clear and very suitable for raising fish.Next to the pond is a small house used by the hired laborers as guards, and not far away is the old house of the Shao family.
The old house is quaint, and the back mountain in the south is looming in the faint mist. The whole place looks like a paradise.Yunshen is basically satisfied with this place. Although the surrounding environment is a bit outdated, it can be used after cleaning up.
He said to Uncle Wang: "All the duckweed in the pond must be cleaned up, and at least one bed must be vacated in the old house and the caretaker's hut. I may live here in the future. In addition, I need a dedicated power supply line. This The line leads to the pond to power the oxygen supply system. At the same time, a few more good-quality three-prong sockets should be prepared in the old house."
Uncle Wang wrote it down carefully, and then asked, "Do we need someone to design the fish pond?"
Yun Shen thought for a while: "No, I don't have much money on hand, and the current business scale is not large, so I can make do with it. I will buy the fry for breeding myself, and my fish The pond does not require a lot of labor, the most important thing is the power supply, and there must be no mistakes in this regard.”
Uncle Wang was a little strange. He had heard from Master Jingxuan that this place was going to be converted into a fish pond, so he went to inquire about it.It is said that the design process of aquaculture fish ponds is very complicated. Just the types should be divided into fish ponds, fish ponds, and adult fish ponds... Among them, the area of adult fish ponds must be at least about ten acres. The small broken pond in the old house is obviously a not enough.
Under their current conditions, at best, this pond can be transformed into a landscape fish pond.Could it be that Master Yunshen wants to rely on such a small place to raise fish and start a business, so that he can become a businessman as successful as Master Jingxuan just by using electricity?
It always feels like a child playing house.
Uncle Wang didn't think too much about it, his duty was to follow the orders of the young masters.Maybe Master Jingxuan was playing with Master Yunshen. Master Yunshen had just recovered from a serious illness. Master Jingxuan might want to cheer him up. Afterwards, the business lost money, so Master Yunshen naturally gave up.
Jing Xuan didn't bother to listen to what Yun Shen said to Uncle Wang. He wandered around alone and saw the messy grass around the guard's hut. He asked, "Why is it a little messy here?"
Uncle Wang explained: "Spring has come recently, and many wild cats on the back mountain are in heat, and sometimes they come here. We have made some traps and will try our best to catch them."
wildcat?
Yun Shen asked Uncle Wang, "When will wild cats come and go?"
Uncle Wang said: "Usually at night, feral cats in heat are very fierce. Master Yunshen remembers to stay away when he sees them."
Yun Shen nodded, but he already had another idea in his mind.Last time, I successfully subdued the Huangmi couple. This time, I can also try to use the wild cats in Houshan as opponents. In the future, he will expand the variety of goods at the fish stall. Before new products are put on the market, it is necessary to let the wild cats taste them first and get their feedback. Then officially enter the human market.
In this way, Yun Shen took a closer look at the old house and pond, and inspected the surrounding environment, and generally knew everything in his heart.He planned to connect the soul fairy pond of the soul bead system with the pond of the old house, and transform the whole pond into a fairy.In this way, he will have two soul fairy ponds, one big and one small. From now on, he will stock the fry in the small pond and the adult fish in the big pond, so that breeding and purification can be carried out at the same time, and the efficiency will be greatly improved.
As for the consumption of immortal power, as long as there is electricity, there is no need to worry.A fully charged fox soul is as powerful as an electric motor, as long as it is strong enough, there will be no pressure on ten soul fairy pools.
Hey, human high technology is indeed a good thing.
Yun Shen sighed again.
Jing Xuan still had work to do, so he had to urge Yun Shen to go back after a while.In the afternoon, Yun Shen ordered some excellent domestic fish fry on Taomi.com, including carp, grass carp, herring, silver carp...etc.In the past, there were only carp and crucian carp in the community landscape river, and Yunshen fish stall had a very single variety. In the future, with fish fry, he will be able to enrich the variety of products and attract more customers.
Goodbye, Jingjinghe, I won’t steal your fish to sell in the future, Yunshen has its own fish pond.
After Yun Shen finished buying the fish fry, he gritted his teeth and bought an electric tricycle at a high price after thinking about it. In the future, when his business grows, he will not be able to pull the scooter, he must have a convenient means of transportation.He carefully planned the fish breeding and sales, and before he knew it, it was getting dark. Aunt Wang made dinner very early. When Yun Shen was eating, he found that he was the only one in the restaurant. Jing Xuan hadn't come back yet. Shallow is not there either.
He asked, "Where's brother?"
Aunt Wang said with a smile: "Young Master Qingqian has already selected his clothes upstairs. The auction in the Qilin Pavilion tonight is a very formal occasion, and many important guests will go. The young masters of the Shao family must not miss it there." In order to gain an identity, you must show a considerable demeanor."
Yun Shen was quite surprised. He thought that a private auction was a very casual place where everyone could just eat, chat, and buy, but it turned out that it was also a kind of entertainment?But Jing Xuan was very thoughtful, Yun Shen's attire had already been prepared, and when he returned upstairs after dinner, he saw Aunt Zhao was busy arranging a set of white and spacious tuxedo.
Seeing Yun Shen coming, Aunt Zhao urged him with a smile: "It's getting late, Master Yun Shen, change your clothes quickly."
☆, tell the truth
Yun Shen had never worn this kind of Western-style formal clothes before, and after changing into trousers and a vest, he felt uncomfortable all over his body, as if he had been tightly bound into a paramecium by a rope.
Aunt Zhao was quite happy. While putting on a black tie for Yun Shen, she sighed in admiration: "Master Yun Shen is really a good-looking talent. You will definitely become a handsome gentleman in a few years. To have such an outstanding sibling like you Brother, Master Jingxuan and Master Qingqian are also looking good."
Yun Shen blushed slightly, quite embarrassed.When he followed his master to the Xiantao Conference in the fairy world, he only wore a more gorgeous fairy robe.Now this suit doesn't make him feel handsome, but looks like a monster with uncomfortable hands and feet.
If Master saw it, would he laugh at him?
Thinking of Master, Yun Shen's little heart suddenly jumped.The master is right in front of us, maybe they will meet soon!
When Yun Shen went downstairs, Qing Qian was already waiting for him.Tonight's Qing Qian is wearing a well-tailored black suit, her hair has been sprayed into a very fashionable hairstyle with hairspray, and she exudes the air of an arrogant rich man.He looked Yun Shen up and down, looked to the left, and looked again. He didn't seem to find any shortcomings, so he waved his hand: "Let's go, the car is already waiting outside."
Yun Shen was a little nervous, and his whole body became stiff when he got in the car.He asked in a trembling voice, "Jing... isn't brother Jingxuan here?"
Qingqian despised him: "Don't be so nervous, it's just an ordinary dinner party, and it's not like you're going to be burned and eaten. The eldest brother has already passed by first, he wants to say hello to a few friends first, and will wait for us there .”
Despite the contempt on her face, Qing Qian still caresses Yun Shen's back very intimately, just like petting a cat with fried hair.Yun Shen gradually calmed down, he took a few deep breaths, and asked Qing Qian: "What is the auction like?"
Qingqian said: "It's nothing unusual, just a group of pretending rich people pretending to be elegant together. However, the auction scale of Qilin Pavilion is very large in Rongcheng. This event lasted for three days, and today is the last night Yes. Because the auction will end tonight, many collectors and celebrities in many industries will also come to have a look. Brother specially arranged for you to show up today, which will also allow you to meet more people, and you will have more fun in Rongcheng in the future .”
Yun Shen nodded with half understanding: "Then what should I do?"
Qingqian looked at him: "You look so cute, just smile."
Yun Shen was startled: "Brother, with such a vicious tongue, you would honestly praise me for being cute? Did the sun come out from the west today?"
Qingqian was so angry that she pinched Yun Shen's face: "Little bastard, you are really getting more and more glib!"
Yun Shen wailed: "No, it won't be cute if you pinch my face swollen. If you see a distinguished guest, you will embarrass the Shao family!"
Although Jing Xuan is also gentle, he always feels like a serious parent, and Yun Shen dare not mess with him.He was more comfortable when he was with Qingqian, the two had a quarrel all the way, and when they arrived at the destination, Yun Shen was no longer nervous.
The car parked outside the small road, Qing Qian got out of the car and led Yun Shen into a narrow alley, Yun Shen saw bright red lanterns hanging under the eaves on both sides, the atmosphere around was mysterious and coquettish, which made his scalp tingle.At the end of the alley is the Qilin Pavilion, the dark wooden door is exactly the same as what Yun Shen saw in the Fox Soul Immortal Formation, and the master is here.
Yun Shen felt his throat tighten.
Qing Qian raised her hand and knocked on the door a few times, the wooden door creaked and slowly opened to both sides, and it was pitch black inside.Yun Shen walked in with Qing Qian, and it took a while for his eyes to adapt to the dim light inside, and at the same time he felt the faint scent of tobacco coming from his nostrils.
I saw antique-style private rooms on both sides of the room, with exquisite wooden structures, separated by a bright red curtain on the door.Through the curtains, people could be seen moving indistinctly in each private room, and muffled voices of conversation could be heard from inside.
The Qilin Pavilion, which looks ordinary from the outside, actually has a hidden cave inside.Qingqian led Yun Shen around in the private rooms, and after a while Yun Shen became dizzy and couldn't tell the difference between south, east and north, as if he had turned into a maze.But the further you go, the number of private rooms on both sides gradually becomes rarer, and the decoration becomes more luxurious.The two walked for a long time before they saw Jing Xuan standing there in front of a curtained door.
He was smoking a cigarette, when he saw Qingqian and Yunshen coming, he stifled the cigarette butts and raised the curtain: "Come in, I'm waiting for you."
Yun Shen followed Qing Qian into the room, and it was much more spacious than he imagined.There were a few unfamiliar faces sitting scattered on the table, some in suits and leather shoes like him, and some in double-breasted gowns or cheongsams. Incense was burning in the brass stove in the corner, and the whole room looked very low-key and elegant.
Seeing Yun Shen, a middle-aged man wearing glasses spoke first: "I heard that Master Yun Shen is just recovering from a serious illness, and he looks pretty good. No wonder he started a seafood business in his spare time. I really can't accept it."
Seeing that man's sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, Yun Shen's tone was malicious, and he was wondering, only to hear Qing Qian whispering in his ear: "This is the second uncle Shao Chong, Shao Yuan's father. Last time Shao Yuan was with us The family has suffered, and his father has been unable to swallow that breath."
It turned out that Shao Yuan didn't get the money and lost face, and the second uncle hated their family.
Yun Shen thought for a while, then smiled and said: "I have been ill for too long, and I have been eating and drinking for nothing at Shao's house for several years. I feel very sorry. It is not easy for brothers to support a family. I should be self-reliant and start a business. Because the younger generation can't always cause trouble for the family, second uncle, are you right?"
Shao Chong's face was slightly embarrassed, he turned his head away with a cold snort and ignored Yun Shen.He naturally heard that Yun Shen was implying that his son Shao Yuan was not self-reliant and would cause trouble for the family, so if he took his advice, he would be fooled.
The young woman wearing a cheongsam at the side seemed very interested in Yunshen's "seafood business", and asked with a smile: "Yunshen, how big is your business now? Do you have regular cooperation?"
Yun Shen looked at Jing Xuan blankly, and Jing Xuan said, "This is your aunt Shao Lan, you can just tell the truth about business matters."
Therefore, Yun Shen told the truth: "I... currently don't have a company, and I don't have any partners. I just occasionally sell the fish I raise in the open-air market."
There was silence in the room for a while, and suddenly everyone burst into laughter.
Shao Lan laughed so hard that she shed tears: "The open-air market? Are you riding a tricycle to sell fish?"
Yun Shen said: "I have a cart and a trailer, which are still enough for the daily needs of the business."
Shao Lan couldn't help laughing: "Your so-called business can even be done by a ten-year-old elementary school student and an 80-year-old lady. Where is the core competitiveness? I heard that you are still being bullied in the market. You can't earn money like this." Money worries Jingxuan again, so why don't you give it up earlier."
Yun Shen was quite unconvinced: "My fish stall is very competitive, so there are jealous competitors who make trouble. Although my fish are all local products, I have enough confidence in the taste and quality. They No worse than any merchant in Rongcheng!"
Shao Lan was very surprised: "Hey, you are so loud. Come here, there happens to be an expert in food and beverage here, this is Mr. Xue Rongfei, he can judge whether your products are exaggerated. Someday you make an appointment, you Get a boiled fish for Mr. Xue to taste."
The expert Xue Rongfei that Shao Lan was talking about didn't look very old, maybe he was about the same as Qingqian.He was wearing a long red embroidered gown, with slightly long black hair and a pair of natural smiling eyes that looked very friendly.Yun Shen remembered that when everyone was laughing just now, Xue Rongfei didn't laugh along with him, maybe he was a good person who was easy to get along with.
So he said: "There is no need to make another appointment. I happened to bring some dried fish with me. Let Mr. Xue judge the taste. If you are interested, you can try it. You will not be disappointed."
All the people present seemed to lack interest. There were all kinds of delicacies on the table, and who would be interested in a little bit of dried fish.Shao Chong, who was arguing with Yun Shen just now, has already found an excuse to go out for a walk, he is not interested in playing business games with teenage children.
Only Xue Rongfei didn't put on airs, he took Yun Shen's dried fish, tore open a piece and tasted it patiently.Yun Shen didn't prepare it specially. A few days ago, there was a small piece of fish left over from the fish sale. He didn't want to waste it, so he used the fairy method to make a fire and roasted the fish to eat it.Before he finished his meal, he wrapped it in paper and took it with him to satisfy his hunger. Anyway, the dried fish is not easy to deteriorate, so he can eat it slowly.
Unexpectedly, this dried fish would come in handy today.
Xue Rongfei tasted Yunshen's dried fish carefully, and didn't speak for a long time.Someone laughed at the side: "After all, this kind of low-end goods still can't catch your eyes, right? You can say bad things, even if it's Jing Xuan's younger brother, don't worry about it. Jing Xuan is not such a stingy person."
Xue Rongfei smiled, but still didn't speak.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little weird, and Shao Lan was secretly startled.She and Xue Rongfei are close friends. Although Xue Rongfei looks kind and friendly, he can be called black-bellied, and his evaluation of food is always merciless and extremely mean.If the dried fish was unpalatable, he would have scolded Yun Shen long ago with a hidden knife in his smile.
And now that he doesn't speak, it means that he won't be able to find any flaws in the dried fish for a while.
How is this possible?This dried fish is obviously plain, and the packaging is ridiculously simple, even if it is thrown in the trash, no one will take a second look.Shao Lan became curious and couldn't help but want to try it too, but at this moment she found that the whole dried fish had been eaten by Xue Rongfei at some point...
Xue Rongfei looked at Shao Lan with a smile, as if embarrassed.It was rare for him to encounter such wonderful food, and he couldn't help but lose his composure.
☆, early spring landscape
Shao Lan's face turned pale with shock. At this moment, the lights in the room gradually dimmed, and the auction started.Everyone was concerned about those priceless auction items, so they greeted Jing Xuan one after another, got up and went back to their private rooms.
The last night of the auction, there must be a lot of good things tonight.
Xue Rongfei and Shao Lan also left, Xue Rongfei gave Yun Shen a faint look before leaving.A young man who seemed to be a follower followed closely behind him, quickly stuffed a business card into Yun Shen's hand, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Xue is somewhat interested in your products, and I will talk to you in detail later."
Yun Shen was very surprised, but he felt a little uneasy while holding the business card.When only Jing Xuan and Qing Qian were left in the room, he cautiously asked Jing Xuan: "Did I mess up? Brother Qing Qian said that I just need to smile on such occasions."
Jing Xuan patted Yun Shen's head: "You have done a good job, and it is necessary to adapt to the unexpected when encountering accidents. In this way, those people will remember you just now, which is more effective than me simply introducing you to everyone. Much better."
Qing Qian shuddered at the side: "Shao Chong's face was cramped just now, it's so refreshing to watch!"
Jing Xuan was not too happy: "I'm a little concerned about the situation with my second uncle. Last time Aunt Lin left and there was no further news. It stands to reason that their family is in trouble now, and this family of three alone can't solve it. Yes, more or less they will ask me or other relatives for help. But the second uncle didn’t seem to be unusual just now, and Aunt Lin hasn’t moved at all, so I’m worried that they will be tossing something secretly.”
Qing Qian rolled her eyes: "Are you worried that Second Uncle will borrow usury?"
Jing Xuan sighed: "Although the second uncle's business has been sluggish in the past few years, after all, he still has some family background. Like some genuine calligraphy and paintings, it would be a pity if he jumped the wall and took them out to pay off the debt. I want to get them again It's quite troublesome."
Qingqian laughed: "I still wonder why you suddenly became merciful and willing to borrow money from Aunt Lin. It turned out that you were thinking about those calligraphy and paintings. You are too treacherous, even your own family."
Jing Xuan smiled: "Don't put it so harshly. When I see good calligraphy and paintings, I want to take them back to make use of their value. This is just my occupational disease. Besides, borrowing money is considered an emergency. I am obviously repaying a grievance with virtue." As he said, he Looking at Yun Shen who was standing blankly at the side, he stopped talking, "Stop talking about these boring things, Yun Shen rarely comes to the Qilin Pavilion, so he should see more interesting things."
He walked to the wall and pulled up the rope curtain, only to see that the hanging paintings covering one side of the wall moved slowly to the two sides.Behind the hanging paintings is a transparent glass curtain wall. Jingxuan pressed the button on the wall, and the glass curtain wall opened automatically. Yun Shen saw a gorgeous and spacious sunken booth below.
A beam of light was dimly shining on the booth. It turned out that this was the legendary auction venue.
Various private rooms surround the booth high above, and the identities of the photographers are protected with top secret in these private rooms.After the opening, the image data of the lot will be sent to the auction system in the private room in real time, and the auctioneers can complete a series of procedures such as viewing the goods, bidding, and closing the deal through the system.
Jing Xuan turned off the light, and both Qing Qian and Yun Shen sat down.After a while, the auctioneer in a red suit came to the stage. After a few greetings, tonight's auction officially started.
Qing Qian whispered to Yun Shen: "If you like something, you can also bid."
Yun Shen nodded, but with an absent-minded expression, he hardly noticed what auction items were being displayed on the stage.The dark environment made his perception sharper, and through the power of the soul orb, he seemed to feel the breath of the master looming nearby.
He couldn't forget the purpose of coming here today, and this feeling made him sure that he came to the right place.
But where is the master?
Various auction items were displayed in a dazzling array, and one after another was photographed.Jing Xuan took a few pictures of antique calligraphy and paintings, Qing Qian took a picture of a vase, but Yun Shen still got nothing.
At this time, another calligraphy and painting was carried up in the frame, and the auctioneer enthusiastically introduced: "The following lot is the authentic work of master Bai Lingxu, a famous contemporary Chinese painting master. Master Lingxu has collected it at home and abroad in recent years. It is very popular in the world, and many famous masters are willing to spend a lot of money for the authentic work of the master. Today, the master will donate all the proceeds from the auction to charity, and interested gentlemen and ladies can start bidding."
The cover on the frame was removed, and Yun Shen's eyes suddenly widened when he saw the landscape painting in early spring.
For a moment, he seemed to be unable to see or hear anything, and only that exquisite Chinese painting was left in his whole world.He is so familiar with the beautiful brushwork, the chic composition, and the handwriting of the signature!
That is not the real work of Master Lingxu at all, then... that is clearly the painting of Master!
Spirit Fox Immortal Zun likes elegance, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and his landscape paintings were also well-known in the fairy world back then.And when he was writing, Yun Shen was always on the sidelines, and no one was more familiar with Master's brushwork style than him!
He suppressed his excitement and felt it carefully for a while. Although it was very faint, the painting did have the aura of the Spirit Fox Immortal.You can't be wrong, this landscape painting must be written by Master!
This lot was quite popular, and there were already competing bids during the few minutes Yun Shen was in a daze.Seeing Yun Shen staring blankly at the painting, Jing Xuan kindly reminded him: "If you like it, you can also bid. If you don't know how to use the auction system, I will help you take the auction."
Yun Shen suddenly came back to his senses, grabbed Jing Xuan and said, "I want that painting! No matter how expensive it is, please help me take a picture!"
Qing Qian was quite surprised at the side: "Are you sure you want it no matter how expensive it is? Just look at the current bidding price."
Yun Shen's eyes turned to the display screen next to the auction booth, and he felt a chill in his heart.The bidding for the square foot of the painting has soared to more than 1 RMB, and the price of the whole work has exceeded 80 RMB.
Are Master's paintings so valuable in the modern world?
Yun Shen was a little inexplicably excited, but also very anxious, where did he get the money to buy such an expensive thing?
Jing Xuan looked at him, stretched out his hand to bid on the auction system, and added 5000 yuan at the beginning.Qingqian became anxious: "Brother, stop making trouble, don't you really want to take a picture of that thing? Modern Chinese painting does not belong to the field you are familiar with, how can we sell it later?"
Yun Shen was also anxious: "Don't make a move! This painting cannot be sold to others!"
Jing Xuan smiled: "It's rare for Yun Shen to have something he likes, so it's okay to give it to him. I estimate that the final price of this painting by Master Lingxu will be about 160 million yuan. We are not short of this money, so let Yun Shen It’s worth it to be happy.”
Qing Qian turned her head angrily: "... Ignore you!"
Yun Shen hesitated instead: "Then... just forget it, it's too expensive."
Jing Xuan smiled, and added another 5000 yuan: "I, Shao Jingxuan, will not give up on the things I sell halfway, because it will lose face in the circle. I said that I will take pictures and give it to you, of course I will not go back on my word, you just have to think about it." Just hang the painting somewhere after you get home, and you don’t have to worry about other things.”
Yun Shen was both happy and moved that his elder brother would treat him so well.At this point, he was embarrassed to say anything more. After several rounds of bidding, the early spring landscape map was finally finalized at a price of 160 million yuan, which was acquired by Shao Jingxuan.
The auctioneer made the final decision: "Congratulations! This auctioneer did not choose to auction anonymously and is willing to reveal his identity. He is Mr. Shao Jingxuan, a well-known Confucian businessman in Rongcheng! Mr. Shao said that this painting was given to him when he was recovering from a serious illness. Shao Yunshen, the younger brother of Shao Yunshen, Master Yunshen is only 19 years old this year, he would be interested in traditional Chinese painting unexpectedly, he is really young and promising! In fact, Master Lingxu has also appeared in Qilin Pavilion in person these days, if the old man knows that he has such a young Fans will be very happy!"
Yun Shen listened quietly, holding his breath, and suddenly seemed to understand what was going on.
In the past few days, Master Lingxu was in Qilin Pavilion, and Fox Soul Immortal Art detected that Linghu Immortal Venerable was here.Therefore, this master is likely to be Xianzun himself. It is the master who also came to the human world for some reason, and has been living in Rongcheng with a different name and surname!
At this time, a figure stood outside the private room, and said respectfully: "Excuse me, I am Master Lingxu's disciple Zhe Zhen. This is the first time Master has met such a young photographer, and he is very fond of Master Yunshen." Interested, I would like to invite you and Mr. Shao to have a small gathering."
Yun Shen stood up excitedly, Jing Xuan stopped him with his eyes, and said to Zhezhen: "Master Lao Lingxu is bothering, then we should respect and obey."
Qing Qian seemed to see what Jing Xuan was planning, and let them go with a cold snort.So, Jing Xuan and Yun Shen, led by Zhe Zhen, went to the private room where Master Lingxu was.This private room is very far away from the other rooms. There is a lavender curtain hanging at the door, the color is very elegant and noble. Zhezhen gently lifted the curtain and said to the people inside: "Master Lingxu, the guests have already arrived."
A very old voice came from inside: "Please come in."
Jing Xuan signaled Yun Shen to go in first, and Yun Shen walked in nervously, and said in a low voice, "Excuse me."
The private room was empty, only one person was sitting there.It was a white-haired old man, wearing a white silk and satin double-breasted gown, holding a dragon head staff, looking like a fairy.But Yun Shen could tell at a glance that this was not Master Lingxu's true face, he was surrounded by a strong fairy energy, which was clearly the best fairy technique of the fox family - blinding eyes.
Master Lingxu concealed his true face!
Yun Shen secretly recited the magic formula, and a green mist drifted past his eyes, and he felt that the scenery in his vision became clearer.The blindfold had no effect on him, he looked at Master Lingxu, and saw a layer of light smoke drifting away from him, and that false old face slowly disappeared.
What appeared before Yun Shen's eyes was the appearance of Bai Qiuli, Linghu Immortal Venerable.
The author has something to say: Tuhao Master→_→
☆, non-staff disciple
Qiu Li is still as beautiful as Yun Shen remembers, with silver hair flowing and fairy-like, and lavender pupils as cold and deep as stars.Yun Shen only felt that his body was hot and cold. He moved his lips and whispered in a voice that he could only hear: "...Master."
But Master Lingxu didn't react much when he saw Yun Shen, and he didn't seem to realize that his blindfold method didn't work on Yun Shen.He smiled and invited Jing Xuan
Jing Xuan was busy scratching Yun Shenmiao's chin, and said casually, "It's probably a wild cat that came in from outside."
Qing Qian leaned over, reached out and tugged Yun Shenmiao's beard: "Little one, where did you come from?"
It hurts, brother bastard.
Yun Shenmiao was angry, and the cat's claws slapped Qingqian's face, not to yank this fairy's beard!
Qingqian was shocked: "You still beat people?"
Jing Xuan hugged Yun Shenmiao away, while blaming Qing Qian: "Okay, okay, why bother with the cat as an adult. Go and wake Yun Shen up, the garden and pond over the old house should have been cleaned up."
Qing Qian shyly refused to leave: "Brother, let's keep this cat, recently my circle of friends has become popular to raise small animals."
When Yun Shenmiao heard this, she struggled and jumped out of Jing Xuan's arms.I hate it, I don’t want you to raise it, if I lock up this fairy with a cage, it will be over, I am a cat who wants to do big things.
It jumped onto the grass, nimbly burrowed into the grass and disappeared. Jingxuan looked at Qingqian and shrugged: "It seems that they don't want you to keep it. Don't mess with me, go and wake Yunshen up. "
☆, Shao's old house
When Qingqian knocked on the door, Yunshen had already fled back to her room quickly and changed back into human form, pretending to put on clothes in front of the mirror.Seeing that the imprint of the cat's paw pad still remained on Qingqian's face, he secretly smiled inwardly.The two went downstairs to have breakfast together, and when they reached the dining room, Yun Shen glanced at the table and asked with some disappointment, "Is there no fish?"
Qingqian sat down next to him, with a puzzled look on her face: "What kind of fish do you eat early in the morning?"
Yun Shen felt a little regretful, a while ago he was always the only one at home, so he just had porridge for breakfast.Now that the two elder brothers are at home, and the family of three is gathered together, how can we not celebrate by eating a few fat and big fish.
Humans really don't know how to enjoy.
Jing Xuan sat on the other side of the dining table and read the newspaper, and casually said to Aunt Wang, "Aunt Wang, go get some fish for Yun Shen, you can do whatever you want."
Aunt Wang nodded, and asked Yun Shen kindly: "There is no fresh fish at home, can you use canned tuna to make some sandwiches for Master Yun Shen?"
Yun Shen had just eaten Jingxuan's sandwich in the garden, was thinking about it, and nodded quickly: "Okay."
Qingqian became anxious, and stretched out her hand to tear off Jingxuan's newspaper: "Brother, you can't spoil him like this, you will spoil Yunshen!"
Jing Xuan looked at him: "I spoiled you a lot when I was young, didn't I spoil you?" He said thoughtfully, "...it seems that I was really spoiled..."
Qingqian blushed, and immediately turned her head away, not wanting to continue this topic. He didn't want Jing Xuan to turn on him, recalling the ugly things like playing with mud and urinating his pants when he was a child.Jing Xuan's memory is really good, if he started nagging, he would definitely be endless, Qing Qian felt a chill when he thought of that scene.
He muttered and reluctantly obeyed Jing Xuan: "...forget it, it's okay to eat some fish in the morning every once in a while, to replenish your brain."
Jing Xuan glanced at him with a half-smile, then lowered his head to read the newspaper again.
After a few minutes, Aunt Wang brought the sandwich, and Yun Shen immediately started to eat it.The practice of sandwiches came from abroad. Yun Shen had never seen it when he was in Immortal Realm, but now he tasted it and found it to be very novel and delicious.Seeing Yun Shen eating happily, Aunt Wang was also very happy: "Master Yun Shen, if you like it, I will make it for you every day from now on."
Yun Shen stuffed his mouth, puffed his cheeks and nodded.
Qing Qian was speechless, and wiped the bread crumbs from the corner of his mouth with a napkin: "Eat slowly, can you be a little more polite."
Yun Shen tried his best to swallow what was in his mouth: "Brother, do you want to eat? It's delicious."
Qing Qian turned her head: "I don't want it, I hate eating fish."
Yun Shen persisted: "Take a bite, it's really delicious. The canned tuna is very fresh, and it's not fishy at all."
Qing Qian still turned her head: "If you say no, then don't. Do you want to force your brother to eat or something? You are so brave!"
At this time, Jing Xuan raised his head from the newspaper, and said with a half-smile: "Qing Qian, eat fish to nourish your brain, don't forget what you said just now."
Qingqian was furious: "Are you beating around the bush and making fun of me for being stupid? You two bastards teamed up to bully me!"
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhao stood by and laughed, the quiet Shao residence hadn't been this lively for a long time.Ever since the husband and wife of the Shao family passed away, Yun Shen was in a coma, and Jing Xuan and Qing Qian were always getting together less often, and the house was often empty.
Although neither of them like to talk about their thoughts, they both seem to blame themselves for not fulfilling their responsibilities as sons and brothers.Now that Yun Shen is finally safe and sound, they must all feel very happy.
After breakfast after arguing for a while, Jing Xuan took Yun Shen to see the pond, but Qing Qian didn't come with him because he still wanted to go back to sleep.Not far from Shao's house is the back mountain, where the garden and pond are at the foot of the mountain, and there is an old old house nearby.
In fact, this is the old house of the Shao family. In the early years, it was relatively prosperous. Later, the number of family members increased, and the relatives gradually separated, and the place gradually became deserted.The old house is currently managed by Jingxuan, and several people have been hired to watch it. Usually, they are responsible for ventilating the old house, weeding the garden, watering the flowers, and spending most of the rest of the time basking in the sun.
Therefore, Jingxuan packed up the place and used it, and the guard workers were also very happy. They finally didn't have to be idle to panic.
There are three employees, the leader is Uncle Wang, who is about 40 years old, and Aunt Wang, who works in Shao's house, is a couple.Uncle Wang is very kind, and treats Yun Shen very politely: "Master Yun Shen, if you need anything here, just ask. Everyone is free all day, and I am happy to help you run errands."
Yun Shen nodded and looked around.The garden was bigger than he had imagined. There were some duckweed floating on the surface of the pond, which was connected to the small river at the foot of the mountain. The water quality was clear and very suitable for raising fish.Next to the pond is a small house used by the hired laborers as guards, and not far away is the old house of the Shao family.
The old house is quaint, and the back mountain in the south is looming in the faint mist. The whole place looks like a paradise.Yunshen is basically satisfied with this place. Although the surrounding environment is a bit outdated, it can be used after cleaning up.
He said to Uncle Wang: "All the duckweed in the pond must be cleaned up, and at least one bed must be vacated in the old house and the caretaker's hut. I may live here in the future. In addition, I need a dedicated power supply line. This The line leads to the pond to power the oxygen supply system. At the same time, a few more good-quality three-prong sockets should be prepared in the old house."
Uncle Wang wrote it down carefully, and then asked, "Do we need someone to design the fish pond?"
Yun Shen thought for a while: "No, I don't have much money on hand, and the current business scale is not large, so I can make do with it. I will buy the fry for breeding myself, and my fish The pond does not require a lot of labor, the most important thing is the power supply, and there must be no mistakes in this regard.”
Uncle Wang was a little strange. He had heard from Master Jingxuan that this place was going to be converted into a fish pond, so he went to inquire about it.It is said that the design process of aquaculture fish ponds is very complicated. Just the types should be divided into fish ponds, fish ponds, and adult fish ponds... Among them, the area of adult fish ponds must be at least about ten acres. The small broken pond in the old house is obviously a not enough.
Under their current conditions, at best, this pond can be transformed into a landscape fish pond.Could it be that Master Yunshen wants to rely on such a small place to raise fish and start a business, so that he can become a businessman as successful as Master Jingxuan just by using electricity?
It always feels like a child playing house.
Uncle Wang didn't think too much about it, his duty was to follow the orders of the young masters.Maybe Master Jingxuan was playing with Master Yunshen. Master Yunshen had just recovered from a serious illness. Master Jingxuan might want to cheer him up. Afterwards, the business lost money, so Master Yunshen naturally gave up.
Jing Xuan didn't bother to listen to what Yun Shen said to Uncle Wang. He wandered around alone and saw the messy grass around the guard's hut. He asked, "Why is it a little messy here?"
Uncle Wang explained: "Spring has come recently, and many wild cats on the back mountain are in heat, and sometimes they come here. We have made some traps and will try our best to catch them."
wildcat?
Yun Shen asked Uncle Wang, "When will wild cats come and go?"
Uncle Wang said: "Usually at night, feral cats in heat are very fierce. Master Yunshen remembers to stay away when he sees them."
Yun Shen nodded, but he already had another idea in his mind.Last time, I successfully subdued the Huangmi couple. This time, I can also try to use the wild cats in Houshan as opponents. In the future, he will expand the variety of goods at the fish stall. Before new products are put on the market, it is necessary to let the wild cats taste them first and get their feedback. Then officially enter the human market.
In this way, Yun Shen took a closer look at the old house and pond, and inspected the surrounding environment, and generally knew everything in his heart.He planned to connect the soul fairy pond of the soul bead system with the pond of the old house, and transform the whole pond into a fairy.In this way, he will have two soul fairy ponds, one big and one small. From now on, he will stock the fry in the small pond and the adult fish in the big pond, so that breeding and purification can be carried out at the same time, and the efficiency will be greatly improved.
As for the consumption of immortal power, as long as there is electricity, there is no need to worry.A fully charged fox soul is as powerful as an electric motor, as long as it is strong enough, there will be no pressure on ten soul fairy pools.
Hey, human high technology is indeed a good thing.
Yun Shen sighed again.
Jing Xuan still had work to do, so he had to urge Yun Shen to go back after a while.In the afternoon, Yun Shen ordered some excellent domestic fish fry on Taomi.com, including carp, grass carp, herring, silver carp...etc.In the past, there were only carp and crucian carp in the community landscape river, and Yunshen fish stall had a very single variety. In the future, with fish fry, he will be able to enrich the variety of products and attract more customers.
Goodbye, Jingjinghe, I won’t steal your fish to sell in the future, Yunshen has its own fish pond.
After Yun Shen finished buying the fish fry, he gritted his teeth and bought an electric tricycle at a high price after thinking about it. In the future, when his business grows, he will not be able to pull the scooter, he must have a convenient means of transportation.He carefully planned the fish breeding and sales, and before he knew it, it was getting dark. Aunt Wang made dinner very early. When Yun Shen was eating, he found that he was the only one in the restaurant. Jing Xuan hadn't come back yet. Shallow is not there either.
He asked, "Where's brother?"
Aunt Wang said with a smile: "Young Master Qingqian has already selected his clothes upstairs. The auction in the Qilin Pavilion tonight is a very formal occasion, and many important guests will go. The young masters of the Shao family must not miss it there." In order to gain an identity, you must show a considerable demeanor."
Yun Shen was quite surprised. He thought that a private auction was a very casual place where everyone could just eat, chat, and buy, but it turned out that it was also a kind of entertainment?But Jing Xuan was very thoughtful, Yun Shen's attire had already been prepared, and when he returned upstairs after dinner, he saw Aunt Zhao was busy arranging a set of white and spacious tuxedo.
Seeing Yun Shen coming, Aunt Zhao urged him with a smile: "It's getting late, Master Yun Shen, change your clothes quickly."
☆, tell the truth
Yun Shen had never worn this kind of Western-style formal clothes before, and after changing into trousers and a vest, he felt uncomfortable all over his body, as if he had been tightly bound into a paramecium by a rope.
Aunt Zhao was quite happy. While putting on a black tie for Yun Shen, she sighed in admiration: "Master Yun Shen is really a good-looking talent. You will definitely become a handsome gentleman in a few years. To have such an outstanding sibling like you Brother, Master Jingxuan and Master Qingqian are also looking good."
Yun Shen blushed slightly, quite embarrassed.When he followed his master to the Xiantao Conference in the fairy world, he only wore a more gorgeous fairy robe.Now this suit doesn't make him feel handsome, but looks like a monster with uncomfortable hands and feet.
If Master saw it, would he laugh at him?
Thinking of Master, Yun Shen's little heart suddenly jumped.The master is right in front of us, maybe they will meet soon!
When Yun Shen went downstairs, Qing Qian was already waiting for him.Tonight's Qing Qian is wearing a well-tailored black suit, her hair has been sprayed into a very fashionable hairstyle with hairspray, and she exudes the air of an arrogant rich man.He looked Yun Shen up and down, looked to the left, and looked again. He didn't seem to find any shortcomings, so he waved his hand: "Let's go, the car is already waiting outside."
Yun Shen was a little nervous, and his whole body became stiff when he got in the car.He asked in a trembling voice, "Jing... isn't brother Jingxuan here?"
Qingqian despised him: "Don't be so nervous, it's just an ordinary dinner party, and it's not like you're going to be burned and eaten. The eldest brother has already passed by first, he wants to say hello to a few friends first, and will wait for us there .”
Despite the contempt on her face, Qing Qian still caresses Yun Shen's back very intimately, just like petting a cat with fried hair.Yun Shen gradually calmed down, he took a few deep breaths, and asked Qing Qian: "What is the auction like?"
Qingqian said: "It's nothing unusual, just a group of pretending rich people pretending to be elegant together. However, the auction scale of Qilin Pavilion is very large in Rongcheng. This event lasted for three days, and today is the last night Yes. Because the auction will end tonight, many collectors and celebrities in many industries will also come to have a look. Brother specially arranged for you to show up today, which will also allow you to meet more people, and you will have more fun in Rongcheng in the future .”
Yun Shen nodded with half understanding: "Then what should I do?"
Qingqian looked at him: "You look so cute, just smile."
Yun Shen was startled: "Brother, with such a vicious tongue, you would honestly praise me for being cute? Did the sun come out from the west today?"
Qingqian was so angry that she pinched Yun Shen's face: "Little bastard, you are really getting more and more glib!"
Yun Shen wailed: "No, it won't be cute if you pinch my face swollen. If you see a distinguished guest, you will embarrass the Shao family!"
Although Jing Xuan is also gentle, he always feels like a serious parent, and Yun Shen dare not mess with him.He was more comfortable when he was with Qingqian, the two had a quarrel all the way, and when they arrived at the destination, Yun Shen was no longer nervous.
The car parked outside the small road, Qing Qian got out of the car and led Yun Shen into a narrow alley, Yun Shen saw bright red lanterns hanging under the eaves on both sides, the atmosphere around was mysterious and coquettish, which made his scalp tingle.At the end of the alley is the Qilin Pavilion, the dark wooden door is exactly the same as what Yun Shen saw in the Fox Soul Immortal Formation, and the master is here.
Yun Shen felt his throat tighten.
Qing Qian raised her hand and knocked on the door a few times, the wooden door creaked and slowly opened to both sides, and it was pitch black inside.Yun Shen walked in with Qing Qian, and it took a while for his eyes to adapt to the dim light inside, and at the same time he felt the faint scent of tobacco coming from his nostrils.
I saw antique-style private rooms on both sides of the room, with exquisite wooden structures, separated by a bright red curtain on the door.Through the curtains, people could be seen moving indistinctly in each private room, and muffled voices of conversation could be heard from inside.
The Qilin Pavilion, which looks ordinary from the outside, actually has a hidden cave inside.Qingqian led Yun Shen around in the private rooms, and after a while Yun Shen became dizzy and couldn't tell the difference between south, east and north, as if he had turned into a maze.But the further you go, the number of private rooms on both sides gradually becomes rarer, and the decoration becomes more luxurious.The two walked for a long time before they saw Jing Xuan standing there in front of a curtained door.
He was smoking a cigarette, when he saw Qingqian and Yunshen coming, he stifled the cigarette butts and raised the curtain: "Come in, I'm waiting for you."
Yun Shen followed Qing Qian into the room, and it was much more spacious than he imagined.There were a few unfamiliar faces sitting scattered on the table, some in suits and leather shoes like him, and some in double-breasted gowns or cheongsams. Incense was burning in the brass stove in the corner, and the whole room looked very low-key and elegant.
Seeing Yun Shen, a middle-aged man wearing glasses spoke first: "I heard that Master Yun Shen is just recovering from a serious illness, and he looks pretty good. No wonder he started a seafood business in his spare time. I really can't accept it."
Seeing that man's sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks, Yun Shen's tone was malicious, and he was wondering, only to hear Qing Qian whispering in his ear: "This is the second uncle Shao Chong, Shao Yuan's father. Last time Shao Yuan was with us The family has suffered, and his father has been unable to swallow that breath."
It turned out that Shao Yuan didn't get the money and lost face, and the second uncle hated their family.
Yun Shen thought for a while, then smiled and said: "I have been ill for too long, and I have been eating and drinking for nothing at Shao's house for several years. I feel very sorry. It is not easy for brothers to support a family. I should be self-reliant and start a business. Because the younger generation can't always cause trouble for the family, second uncle, are you right?"
Shao Chong's face was slightly embarrassed, he turned his head away with a cold snort and ignored Yun Shen.He naturally heard that Yun Shen was implying that his son Shao Yuan was not self-reliant and would cause trouble for the family, so if he took his advice, he would be fooled.
The young woman wearing a cheongsam at the side seemed very interested in Yunshen's "seafood business", and asked with a smile: "Yunshen, how big is your business now? Do you have regular cooperation?"
Yun Shen looked at Jing Xuan blankly, and Jing Xuan said, "This is your aunt Shao Lan, you can just tell the truth about business matters."
Therefore, Yun Shen told the truth: "I... currently don't have a company, and I don't have any partners. I just occasionally sell the fish I raise in the open-air market."
There was silence in the room for a while, and suddenly everyone burst into laughter.
Shao Lan laughed so hard that she shed tears: "The open-air market? Are you riding a tricycle to sell fish?"
Yun Shen said: "I have a cart and a trailer, which are still enough for the daily needs of the business."
Shao Lan couldn't help laughing: "Your so-called business can even be done by a ten-year-old elementary school student and an 80-year-old lady. Where is the core competitiveness? I heard that you are still being bullied in the market. You can't earn money like this." Money worries Jingxuan again, so why don't you give it up earlier."
Yun Shen was quite unconvinced: "My fish stall is very competitive, so there are jealous competitors who make trouble. Although my fish are all local products, I have enough confidence in the taste and quality. They No worse than any merchant in Rongcheng!"
Shao Lan was very surprised: "Hey, you are so loud. Come here, there happens to be an expert in food and beverage here, this is Mr. Xue Rongfei, he can judge whether your products are exaggerated. Someday you make an appointment, you Get a boiled fish for Mr. Xue to taste."
The expert Xue Rongfei that Shao Lan was talking about didn't look very old, maybe he was about the same as Qingqian.He was wearing a long red embroidered gown, with slightly long black hair and a pair of natural smiling eyes that looked very friendly.Yun Shen remembered that when everyone was laughing just now, Xue Rongfei didn't laugh along with him, maybe he was a good person who was easy to get along with.
So he said: "There is no need to make another appointment. I happened to bring some dried fish with me. Let Mr. Xue judge the taste. If you are interested, you can try it. You will not be disappointed."
All the people present seemed to lack interest. There were all kinds of delicacies on the table, and who would be interested in a little bit of dried fish.Shao Chong, who was arguing with Yun Shen just now, has already found an excuse to go out for a walk, he is not interested in playing business games with teenage children.
Only Xue Rongfei didn't put on airs, he took Yun Shen's dried fish, tore open a piece and tasted it patiently.Yun Shen didn't prepare it specially. A few days ago, there was a small piece of fish left over from the fish sale. He didn't want to waste it, so he used the fairy method to make a fire and roasted the fish to eat it.Before he finished his meal, he wrapped it in paper and took it with him to satisfy his hunger. Anyway, the dried fish is not easy to deteriorate, so he can eat it slowly.
Unexpectedly, this dried fish would come in handy today.
Xue Rongfei tasted Yunshen's dried fish carefully, and didn't speak for a long time.Someone laughed at the side: "After all, this kind of low-end goods still can't catch your eyes, right? You can say bad things, even if it's Jing Xuan's younger brother, don't worry about it. Jing Xuan is not such a stingy person."
Xue Rongfei smiled, but still didn't speak.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little weird, and Shao Lan was secretly startled.She and Xue Rongfei are close friends. Although Xue Rongfei looks kind and friendly, he can be called black-bellied, and his evaluation of food is always merciless and extremely mean.If the dried fish was unpalatable, he would have scolded Yun Shen long ago with a hidden knife in his smile.
And now that he doesn't speak, it means that he won't be able to find any flaws in the dried fish for a while.
How is this possible?This dried fish is obviously plain, and the packaging is ridiculously simple, even if it is thrown in the trash, no one will take a second look.Shao Lan became curious and couldn't help but want to try it too, but at this moment she found that the whole dried fish had been eaten by Xue Rongfei at some point...
Xue Rongfei looked at Shao Lan with a smile, as if embarrassed.It was rare for him to encounter such wonderful food, and he couldn't help but lose his composure.
☆, early spring landscape
Shao Lan's face turned pale with shock. At this moment, the lights in the room gradually dimmed, and the auction started.Everyone was concerned about those priceless auction items, so they greeted Jing Xuan one after another, got up and went back to their private rooms.
The last night of the auction, there must be a lot of good things tonight.
Xue Rongfei and Shao Lan also left, Xue Rongfei gave Yun Shen a faint look before leaving.A young man who seemed to be a follower followed closely behind him, quickly stuffed a business card into Yun Shen's hand, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Xue is somewhat interested in your products, and I will talk to you in detail later."
Yun Shen was very surprised, but he felt a little uneasy while holding the business card.When only Jing Xuan and Qing Qian were left in the room, he cautiously asked Jing Xuan: "Did I mess up? Brother Qing Qian said that I just need to smile on such occasions."
Jing Xuan patted Yun Shen's head: "You have done a good job, and it is necessary to adapt to the unexpected when encountering accidents. In this way, those people will remember you just now, which is more effective than me simply introducing you to everyone. Much better."
Qing Qian shuddered at the side: "Shao Chong's face was cramped just now, it's so refreshing to watch!"
Jing Xuan was not too happy: "I'm a little concerned about the situation with my second uncle. Last time Aunt Lin left and there was no further news. It stands to reason that their family is in trouble now, and this family of three alone can't solve it. Yes, more or less they will ask me or other relatives for help. But the second uncle didn’t seem to be unusual just now, and Aunt Lin hasn’t moved at all, so I’m worried that they will be tossing something secretly.”
Qing Qian rolled her eyes: "Are you worried that Second Uncle will borrow usury?"
Jing Xuan sighed: "Although the second uncle's business has been sluggish in the past few years, after all, he still has some family background. Like some genuine calligraphy and paintings, it would be a pity if he jumped the wall and took them out to pay off the debt. I want to get them again It's quite troublesome."
Qingqian laughed: "I still wonder why you suddenly became merciful and willing to borrow money from Aunt Lin. It turned out that you were thinking about those calligraphy and paintings. You are too treacherous, even your own family."
Jing Xuan smiled: "Don't put it so harshly. When I see good calligraphy and paintings, I want to take them back to make use of their value. This is just my occupational disease. Besides, borrowing money is considered an emergency. I am obviously repaying a grievance with virtue." As he said, he Looking at Yun Shen who was standing blankly at the side, he stopped talking, "Stop talking about these boring things, Yun Shen rarely comes to the Qilin Pavilion, so he should see more interesting things."
He walked to the wall and pulled up the rope curtain, only to see that the hanging paintings covering one side of the wall moved slowly to the two sides.Behind the hanging paintings is a transparent glass curtain wall. Jingxuan pressed the button on the wall, and the glass curtain wall opened automatically. Yun Shen saw a gorgeous and spacious sunken booth below.
A beam of light was dimly shining on the booth. It turned out that this was the legendary auction venue.
Various private rooms surround the booth high above, and the identities of the photographers are protected with top secret in these private rooms.After the opening, the image data of the lot will be sent to the auction system in the private room in real time, and the auctioneers can complete a series of procedures such as viewing the goods, bidding, and closing the deal through the system.
Jing Xuan turned off the light, and both Qing Qian and Yun Shen sat down.After a while, the auctioneer in a red suit came to the stage. After a few greetings, tonight's auction officially started.
Qing Qian whispered to Yun Shen: "If you like something, you can also bid."
Yun Shen nodded, but with an absent-minded expression, he hardly noticed what auction items were being displayed on the stage.The dark environment made his perception sharper, and through the power of the soul orb, he seemed to feel the breath of the master looming nearby.
He couldn't forget the purpose of coming here today, and this feeling made him sure that he came to the right place.
But where is the master?
Various auction items were displayed in a dazzling array, and one after another was photographed.Jing Xuan took a few pictures of antique calligraphy and paintings, Qing Qian took a picture of a vase, but Yun Shen still got nothing.
At this time, another calligraphy and painting was carried up in the frame, and the auctioneer enthusiastically introduced: "The following lot is the authentic work of master Bai Lingxu, a famous contemporary Chinese painting master. Master Lingxu has collected it at home and abroad in recent years. It is very popular in the world, and many famous masters are willing to spend a lot of money for the authentic work of the master. Today, the master will donate all the proceeds from the auction to charity, and interested gentlemen and ladies can start bidding."
The cover on the frame was removed, and Yun Shen's eyes suddenly widened when he saw the landscape painting in early spring.
For a moment, he seemed to be unable to see or hear anything, and only that exquisite Chinese painting was left in his whole world.He is so familiar with the beautiful brushwork, the chic composition, and the handwriting of the signature!
That is not the real work of Master Lingxu at all, then... that is clearly the painting of Master!
Spirit Fox Immortal Zun likes elegance, and is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and his landscape paintings were also well-known in the fairy world back then.And when he was writing, Yun Shen was always on the sidelines, and no one was more familiar with Master's brushwork style than him!
He suppressed his excitement and felt it carefully for a while. Although it was very faint, the painting did have the aura of the Spirit Fox Immortal.You can't be wrong, this landscape painting must be written by Master!
This lot was quite popular, and there were already competing bids during the few minutes Yun Shen was in a daze.Seeing Yun Shen staring blankly at the painting, Jing Xuan kindly reminded him: "If you like it, you can also bid. If you don't know how to use the auction system, I will help you take the auction."
Yun Shen suddenly came back to his senses, grabbed Jing Xuan and said, "I want that painting! No matter how expensive it is, please help me take a picture!"
Qing Qian was quite surprised at the side: "Are you sure you want it no matter how expensive it is? Just look at the current bidding price."
Yun Shen's eyes turned to the display screen next to the auction booth, and he felt a chill in his heart.The bidding for the square foot of the painting has soared to more than 1 RMB, and the price of the whole work has exceeded 80 RMB.
Are Master's paintings so valuable in the modern world?
Yun Shen was a little inexplicably excited, but also very anxious, where did he get the money to buy such an expensive thing?
Jing Xuan looked at him, stretched out his hand to bid on the auction system, and added 5000 yuan at the beginning.Qingqian became anxious: "Brother, stop making trouble, don't you really want to take a picture of that thing? Modern Chinese painting does not belong to the field you are familiar with, how can we sell it later?"
Yun Shen was also anxious: "Don't make a move! This painting cannot be sold to others!"
Jing Xuan smiled: "It's rare for Yun Shen to have something he likes, so it's okay to give it to him. I estimate that the final price of this painting by Master Lingxu will be about 160 million yuan. We are not short of this money, so let Yun Shen It’s worth it to be happy.”
Qing Qian turned her head angrily: "... Ignore you!"
Yun Shen hesitated instead: "Then... just forget it, it's too expensive."
Jing Xuan smiled, and added another 5000 yuan: "I, Shao Jingxuan, will not give up on the things I sell halfway, because it will lose face in the circle. I said that I will take pictures and give it to you, of course I will not go back on my word, you just have to think about it." Just hang the painting somewhere after you get home, and you don’t have to worry about other things.”
Yun Shen was both happy and moved that his elder brother would treat him so well.At this point, he was embarrassed to say anything more. After several rounds of bidding, the early spring landscape map was finally finalized at a price of 160 million yuan, which was acquired by Shao Jingxuan.
The auctioneer made the final decision: "Congratulations! This auctioneer did not choose to auction anonymously and is willing to reveal his identity. He is Mr. Shao Jingxuan, a well-known Confucian businessman in Rongcheng! Mr. Shao said that this painting was given to him when he was recovering from a serious illness. Shao Yunshen, the younger brother of Shao Yunshen, Master Yunshen is only 19 years old this year, he would be interested in traditional Chinese painting unexpectedly, he is really young and promising! In fact, Master Lingxu has also appeared in Qilin Pavilion in person these days, if the old man knows that he has such a young Fans will be very happy!"
Yun Shen listened quietly, holding his breath, and suddenly seemed to understand what was going on.
In the past few days, Master Lingxu was in Qilin Pavilion, and Fox Soul Immortal Art detected that Linghu Immortal Venerable was here.Therefore, this master is likely to be Xianzun himself. It is the master who also came to the human world for some reason, and has been living in Rongcheng with a different name and surname!
At this time, a figure stood outside the private room, and said respectfully: "Excuse me, I am Master Lingxu's disciple Zhe Zhen. This is the first time Master has met such a young photographer, and he is very fond of Master Yunshen." Interested, I would like to invite you and Mr. Shao to have a small gathering."
Yun Shen stood up excitedly, Jing Xuan stopped him with his eyes, and said to Zhezhen: "Master Lao Lingxu is bothering, then we should respect and obey."
Qing Qian seemed to see what Jing Xuan was planning, and let them go with a cold snort.So, Jing Xuan and Yun Shen, led by Zhe Zhen, went to the private room where Master Lingxu was.This private room is very far away from the other rooms. There is a lavender curtain hanging at the door, the color is very elegant and noble. Zhezhen gently lifted the curtain and said to the people inside: "Master Lingxu, the guests have already arrived."
A very old voice came from inside: "Please come in."
Jing Xuan signaled Yun Shen to go in first, and Yun Shen walked in nervously, and said in a low voice, "Excuse me."
The private room was empty, only one person was sitting there.It was a white-haired old man, wearing a white silk and satin double-breasted gown, holding a dragon head staff, looking like a fairy.But Yun Shen could tell at a glance that this was not Master Lingxu's true face, he was surrounded by a strong fairy energy, which was clearly the best fairy technique of the fox family - blinding eyes.
Master Lingxu concealed his true face!
Yun Shen secretly recited the magic formula, and a green mist drifted past his eyes, and he felt that the scenery in his vision became clearer.The blindfold had no effect on him, he looked at Master Lingxu, and saw a layer of light smoke drifting away from him, and that false old face slowly disappeared.
What appeared before Yun Shen's eyes was the appearance of Bai Qiuli, Linghu Immortal Venerable.
The author has something to say: Tuhao Master→_→
☆, non-staff disciple
Qiu Li is still as beautiful as Yun Shen remembers, with silver hair flowing and fairy-like, and lavender pupils as cold and deep as stars.Yun Shen only felt that his body was hot and cold. He moved his lips and whispered in a voice that he could only hear: "...Master."
But Master Lingxu didn't react much when he saw Yun Shen, and he didn't seem to realize that his blindfold method didn't work on Yun Shen.He smiled and invited Jing Xuan
