Overhead currents are heavenly masters
Chapter 123 Banquet Hall
Wang Xunyu and Quanzi have already walked a certain distance.Guan Yunheng kept his eyes on until the young man's uneasy expression was clearly reflected in his pupils.He curled his lips and said with a half-smile: "Qin Yi, Qin Benxi disappeared three and a half years ago. I really didn't expect Mr. Benxi, a master of calligraphy, to be a member of Taoism..."
Qin Yue raised her head abruptly, her expression changed from stunned to calm at the beginning.It's not surprising that Boss Guan asked someone to investigate him in detail in advance.But he thought that such a matter would not be spread out, but he did not expect that the other party would take the initiative to bring it up.
He said: "Grandpa's identity is actually not a secret. Many of his fans sometimes ask him for advice."
Guan Yunheng said again: "Indeed, but it is a small circle, and most of the population is very tight-knit, so it is not easy to check."
Qin Yue seemed to recall something and smiled approvingly.
"His whereabouts have been a mystery. After that, you sold the courtyard house, and almost all the calligraphy and painting collections. The amount you got could almost make you a new rich man. But when we met, you were huddled in a village in the city. , Walking around, even buying a piece of pork has to be weighed and weighed. I thought at the time, it should not be possible. Starlight artists may not be able to afford a house in the imperial capital, but they will not be so shabby."
"..." It seems that his astonishing poverty aroused Boss Guan's curiosity, which led to the subsequent series of investigations.
Guan Yunheng continued: "You don't have any bad habits, but the inheritance left by Qin Yi has been exhausted at an alarming rate. Every huge amount of your turnover falls on the account of the excellent antique shop under the name of Cao Zhuo , and the money went to countless collections at large auctions around the world. So far none of these things are in your hands, and they are all donated anonymously to museums around the world. The most recent transaction is in Last month, things were donated to the Imperial Capital Museum, right? Qin Yue, what are you looking for after all you have spent?"
Qin Yue was shocked, and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, I don't know either."
"You don't know what it means?"
"It literally means. In fact, even grandpa and the others don't know what it is? It seems to be something that was left outside due to careless management hundreds of years ago. The seniors of several families have been running around looking for it. Later, some families fell Some families have given up, and some have completely lost contact because of the war. In short, in the previous generation, only grandpa and a few old friends are still searching hard."
Guan Yunheng rolled his eyes and asked, "Since you don't even know what it looks like, where do you start?"
"The things that are exiled from the old sect have special marks, and laymen will only think that they are special patterns."
"So you let Cao Zhuo buy all the things with the mark on the market?"
"...There is only this stupid way, because I can't tell the difference unless I take a closer look."
"How to tell?"
"That thing is dangerous and can bring disaster, so it should be sealed by the Xiao family."
"..." What kind of messy dangerous goods?does it worth? !
The astonishing outflow figures he had read alternated with scenes of young people eating vegetarian noodles with contentment in their apartments.After Guan Yunheng's chest throbbed violently, it was as if countless chemical gases had been piled up. When he was illuminated by the young man's calm gaze, it reached a critical point, and instantly exploded into red clouds all over the sky.He laughed back in anger: "Is it worth it for you to toss yourself into the bear you are now?"
The young man blinked and looked at him strangely: "Why isn't it worth it? I don't lose money either."
Guan Yunheng said coldly: "Okay, Mr. Xiao spends money like water, he is the benchmark among the dudes I have seen! Why do you want to borrow money from me? Find a way yourself!"
The man's tantrums have always been casual.It was sunny and sunny one second, and thunder and lightning the next second.Seeing Guan Yunheng turn around and leave, Qin Yue hurriedly grabbed his arm and said, "The things in the black box that Quanzi brought today are related to me!"
"Say!"
"That's the Seal of Heaven enshrined in the Xiao Family Ancestral Hall. Although I don't know why it appeared in the charity auction. But if ordinary people hold that thing, it will only cause endless troubles!" Intuition told Qin Yue that if the seal is lost, the village Things will change, but the most important thing is to solve the problem at hand.
"So? What about your Xiao family has nothing to do with my surname Guan?"
"..."
Guan Yunheng sneered and strode forward.After all, he didn't know why he was angry?He just can't bear it!Qin Yue never thinks about himself when he does things.It doesn't matter if you are poor, and it doesn't matter if you get hurt.What kind of misty soup did Qin Yi give him before he was alive to make him look like this!
The young man's voice was soft, and he called out his name in a low voice: "Guan Yunheng..."
Immediately, he felt a little bit ruthless: "Why?"
"My parents died on the way to transport the Seal of Heaven. But my uncle said that it was because my spiritual power was too strong to attract monsters." A trace of confusion slipped across the young man's face: "So I don't want the seal to fall In the hands of ordinary people, I hope you can help me. I will definitely return the money to you with interest."
what is this?Is it a mourning policy?Could it be that Guan Yunheng is such a easily shaken person?
"Hmph! How long are you going to stand there stupidly? Haven't Wang Xunyu and the others disappeared?"
"..." So is this a promise or no promise?
*********
The auctioneer gave a general introduction to the process, the types and quantities of the collection, and announced the official start of the auction after all the important guests were seated.
The first collection is a wife's private collection, a crown inlaid with diamonds and pearls.In the end, Mr. Tao bought this item at a price of 100 million and gave it to Tao Lezhu as a birthday present.
Mr. Tao raised the champagne and said with a smile, "I hope my daughter will always be a princess."
There was jubilant laughter and applause in the venue, and they did not hesitate to express the same blessings to the birthday star.Tao Lezhu stood up and expressed his gratitude to the guests.
Qin Yue's position is very close to her, I don't know if it's an illusion or because of the girl's reserve.He always felt that the smile on the corner of her mouth was faint, not as sincere as before.
But soon his attention was attracted by the high-pitched voice of the auctioneer.
The second, the third...the tenth.
"This No. 11 additional collection was provided by Mr. Wang, the owner of our auction house."
A photo of a metal seal was displayed on the big screen. Due to the age, the color of the surface was slightly dull, and it was not as exciting as the previous jewelry.There were rustling discussions in the hall, and many people began to lose interest.
The auctioneer said in a straight voice: "This copper seal was recently returned from overseas, and it belongs to the early works of Monk Fan, a master engraver of the former dynasty. I believe everyone knows that Monk Fan is a person who first practiced Taoism and then practiced Zen. Strange man, there are less than a hundred works left in the world during his lifetime. This work is ten centimeters in length and width. Compared with the author's later works, the style is quite delicate, and it is a rare masterpiece."
"The valuation given by the appraiser is between [-] and [-]. Please start bidding."
Gold and stone seal collections are not uncommon, but they are far less popular than jewelry watches at such informal auctions.
Qin Yue kept muttering in her heart, this Boss Wang probably came here with the wishful thinking of earning favors without losing anything.
Thinking of this level, he secretly scolded the profiteer again.
Tao Ling suddenly raised a sign and shouted, "20."
When all eyes were on her, she tucked her hair behind her ears and smiled back.Qin Yue suddenly understood this man's mentality.
Oh, the damned desire to win!It's just a matter of daily looking for any opportunity to be the focus.
"20." As soon as she finished speaking, someone followed her up.
"..." Is it necessary to take such a big step, and it is not a formal auction, the price is called at will.
"30!" Tao Ling bent her red lips, and exchanged a glance with the bidder.
"35!" The bidder was not to be outdone.
Qin Yue glanced at Guan Yunheng from the corner of his eye.The opponent was as stable as Mount Tai, and seemed to have no intention of bidding at all.He gritted his teeth and thought to himself, why not participate first, then borrow some from Bai Sesu, and pay it back when the salary comes.
In a flash, due to the addition of several collectors, the price has already approached the 200 million mark.Qin Yue only felt that her eyes were dark, and she was afraid that it would not be enough to fill in all the remuneration!
"Two million and one million." The man beside him suddenly said.
He squinted his hands slightly, clenched his fists on his lap.The light and lazy posture seems to be bound to gain things, and he does not show a trace of humility and apology for his sudden entry into the battle.
As soon as he opened his mouth, both Tao Ling and other bidders fell silent.
The auctioneer shouted in a hoarse voice: "One time for two million and one million, two times for two million and one million, three times for two million and one thousand!"
He knocked down the auction hammer: "Okay. This seal carved by Master Liao Fan belongs to Mr. Guan Yunheng!"
There was no sound in the venue until Tao Lezhu giggled and stood up: "Congratulations, brother Yunheng, for getting what he wanted! Thank you all the guests present for your generosity! All proceeds from today's charity auction will be donated to Huahua Children's Foundation , to fund education and medical care for girls in impoverished areas."
The master of ceremonies hosting the birthday party interrupted at the right time: "Also, Miss Tao has something more important to announce today, right?"
Tao Lezhu smiled sweetly: "Yes. There are indeed important things that I want to share with the guests present and the media friends present."
What else can happen at this time?Qin Yue's full thoughts were on Feng Tianyin.
He didn't care, but the guests sitting around started talking.
"What is it, you want to stay at the end?"
"Did you drink too much? Of course it's time to announce the marriage of the Tao and Guan families! I remember that Ms. Tao and Mr. Guan have been engaged for seven or eight years. Now that they have returned from their studies, there must be a happy event. "
Qin Yue glanced at the calm profile of the man beside him with the corner of her eyes.
It turns out... is to get married.Of course, within reason, he should congratulate him.
But there was something stuck in his throat willfully, which made him unable to breathe.At this juncture, if you still use simple "abnormal" to describe your current mentality, it would be too self-deceiving.
Qin Yue closed his eyes and looked at his fingertips.
He sighed in his heart and thought, if only he could be a little more dull.
Guan Yunheng said suddenly: "You, go sit with Guan Peng first."
Although Qin Yue didn't understand why, her mind was like a pot of paste at this moment.He nodded and sat down beside Guan Peng obediently.That position was at least three rows across from Guan Yun.
It was so far away that he couldn't see his face clearly.However, is it important not to see clearly at a time like this? !
On the stage, Tao Lezhu held the microphone and said with a smile: Yes, I do have something important to announce to everyone.From now on, my marriage contract with Mr. Guan Yunheng will be cancelled, and from then on, marriage between men and women will be irrelevant! "
After the dead silence in the arena, it was like a large explosion-like chaos.
Mr. Tao hurriedly said, "Le Zhu, what are you talking about?"
"Yun Heng! Quickly persuade her."
The reporters on the field rushed to Tao Lezhu and Guan Yunheng like sharks smelling blood.Spotlights began to come and go——
"Miss Tao, may I ask if you and Mr. Guan canceled your engagement because of a change in your relationship?"
"Miss Tao, there have been rumors that you don't like men, what's your response to this?"
"Miss Tao, may I ask if the dissolution of this engagement will affect the long-standing cooperative relationship between Guan and Tao?"
"President Guan, do you know about this matter?"
"Guan Zong, how do you feel now?"
Qin Yue was surrounded by the crowd all the way, with footprints all over her shoe.
"Mr. Qin, are you okay?" Guan Peng fished him out of the crowd.
"fine."
Of course it's fine.In fact, his heart was beating faster and more joyously than at other times, and he wished he could jump out of his chest and stand on stage.
Dance around.
He pressed the restlessness hard, and said in his heart: What is this all about!
Qin Yue raised her head abruptly, her expression changed from stunned to calm at the beginning.It's not surprising that Boss Guan asked someone to investigate him in detail in advance.But he thought that such a matter would not be spread out, but he did not expect that the other party would take the initiative to bring it up.

"His whereabouts have been a mystery. After that, you sold the courtyard house, and almost all the calligraphy and painting collections. The amount you got could almost make you a new rich man. But when we met, you were huddled in a village in the city. , Walking around, even buying a piece of pork has to be weighed and weighed. I thought at the time, it should not be possible. Starlight artists may not be able to afford a house in the imperial capital, but they will not be so shabby."
"..." It seems that his astonishing poverty aroused Boss Guan's curiosity, which led to the subsequent series of investigations.
