Where do tomb robbers meet in their lives?

The lights around the stage were basically dimmed, leaving only the traditional carved lanterns on the boxes and on the ground floor, with a little red, barely illuminating the surrounding environment.The stage looked particularly bright, and the long-haired master of ceremonies stood in the middle, wearing a bright yellow cheongsam that looked extravagant and compelling, with the demeanor of a woman from an aristocratic family during the Republic of China.There is a glass cabinet standing in the middle of the stage. It is at the shoulder height of the master of ceremonies. There is something supported on the red base. From my distance, I can only see a black and green hard block. It is probably the jade seal displayed in the auction brochure.

The beautiful emcee explained clearly with a melodious voice: "Dear guests, before the auction starts, please allow me to apologize to everyone present on behalf of the Crescent Hotel. Due to our mistakes in early preparations, today's lot will be withdrawn from the auction. We The guests who registered to participate in the auction have been notified in advance, and for the distinguished guests who failed to notify in time, we apologize again and hope everyone will be happy.”

There was not much movement in the audience, obviously this restaurant is doing very well.

There were no speeches or performances as I expected, and the emcee simply said: "Bosses, there is only one item for auction today, which is the jade seal of ghost button dragon fish, which comes from Baiyanping, Guwen County, Hunan Province. Please provide the registration number Put it on the table, and the waiter will register the number for you. The goods will start to go out in 10 minutes, you see, if you can’t take pictures, there will be no next time.” After speaking, he stretched out his hand neatly, and it turned out to be our box As for the location, I heard her succinctly say: "Start from Dongjia, Tianzihao."

At this moment, the atmosphere in the arena suddenly changed.

I noticed that everyone turned their eyes to look in our direction almost in unison.At this time, my grandfather stood up from his seat, walked slowly to the edge of the fence, and sat down next to the lamp holder.The old man Xue stood behind him with his hands behind his back, a bit like holding the line, very majestic.For a moment, the arena was so quiet that you could hear a needle dropping, and a few seconds later, there was a round of applause, and even the beautiful emcee nodded to my grandfather in salute.

"Strange," Liang Xiaosi whispered, "Why are they applauding?"

My grandfather Liang Youdao was still sitting on his chair, with a disdainful expression on his face: "Why don't you applaud. The God of Wealth is here. The flies smelled the fishy smell and became excited."

My brother thought for a moment, then murmured softly: "But... even if everyone calls grandpa the God of Wealth, isn't the auction going to buy things with his own money, and my grandpa doesn't pay for them, why are they excited?"

Xu Zhonglin smiled and said, "Did you see that thing?"

"Yes. It's on the roster."

"If it were you, how much would you be willing to pay for it?"

"Ah? This, this, how do I know?" My brother rubbed his head and continued to be dazed.

"That's right, that's how it feels." Xu Zhonglin continued to explain, "It's just a thing over there, let me show you a few times, and then it's time for the auction. As for whether the thing is real or not, how much is it worth?" Money, there is no benchmark at all, it is something you decide in your mind in the past ten minutes. You will bid a few million later, it is not sure whether it is good or bad, maybe 500 million to buy a fake and go back, maybe Afterwards, someone offered you 1000 million yuan to collect it from you. You could do anything. If it was you, would your heart beat? Except for this, there are so many Xibei goods in the auction house nowadays. I don't want to lose the opportunity, and I don't want to be taken advantage of, the people sitting here are entangled in their hearts."

My younger brother suddenly realized, and nodded with an educated face.

The old man Xue took a sip of clear tea and took the words: "It is for this reason that experts are particularly important. Who is your grandfather, Mr. Xu? The big palm eye in the classics, someone who has not been in the mountains for decades, people think Please don’t invite me. I haven’t sold this jade seal today. Xu Gong sat here and set a tone for it. Let’s watch it later. It’s okay if your grandfather doesn’t sell it. I'm afraid I'm going to heaven."

Oh, so there is such a meaning.No wonder the master of ceremonies signaled the guy to let my grandpa see the goods first, he is smart enough.This is an advertisement for Mr. Xu.It means: I am absolutely serious, and the leaders of the industry are here. If you hesitate, you will lose a lot of money.So it is absolutely reasonable to leave such a good box for us!

How would they feel if they knew that Mr. Xu was not here to participate in any auction, but just to see his grandson-in-law having fun?

My gaze unconsciously turned to the opposite side.

I don't know when the Yupingfeng was removed, and I never dreamed that Wu Xie was standing near the fence and looking towards my grandfather.The fat man, brother and Wang Meng stood directly behind him, looking like Ma Zi.

After seeing him look towards my grandfather, his expression changed, as if he was a little confused.I walked quickly behind my grandfather, feeling extremely complicated. Although I had a lot to say to him, but after such a distance, how could I convey it to him?

Wu Xie was stunned for a while, and his eyes stayed on me for a long time.

It wasn't until the fat man behind him gave him a nudge that he seemed to wake up and smiled at me.

The exchange time was very fast, almost fleeting, but it did not escape Mrs. Huo's sight. She quickly noticed me standing behind my grandfather, and the one who walked beside me at some point Boss Liang.I only interpreted some bad signals from the old lady's stiff expression. Looking behind me, I saw old man Liang stretch out his left hand, and greeted the old lady from the air, with a smile on his face: Hello, hello.Then he pointed at Wu Xie next to her, and patted me on the shoulder again, with a smug expression on his face, and made a mouth-shape to the opposite side, this time I could see clearly: "My grandson-in-law."

I went to...

Old man Liang, you should be fucking hated no matter from a rational or emotional point of view, okay?

Your grandson-in-law is being surrounded by people!What kind of mouth shape do you compare to others, aren't you provoking others!Wu Xie is going to kill you!

The reaction on the other side vividly deduced what is called "one stone stirs up a thousand waves".

Mrs. Huo simply turned her head to give some instructions, and saw a few men in black suits with bad faces coming up immediately, and began to pull people politely, as if intending to expel them.Thinking about it now, it might have been a good thing if Wu Xie had been driven away.But who is the third master?He usually seems to be gentle, but he doesn't care when he gets angry.I saw him push the person who was approaching, and he took a step forward, getting closer to Mrs. Huo.The fat man next to him waved his hand and drove away all the people who came over. The younger brother dispersed the two people with his eyes. Wang Meng was a little bit at a loss, but he didn't lose control. Pale.

What worries me the most is Wu Xie's reaction.

He didn't intend to leave at all, but instead acted very tough, as if he was talking to the old lady.But when my grandfather did this, he stabbed the big ant's nest of the Huo family. He didn't even bother to listen to him. His face was covered with frost, and what he said must be very unpleasant.More people came up to pull them away.

Then, Brother Wu did something extremely awesome.

He sat down on the chair next to Mrs. Huo.

"Hey!" I heard Xiaoyu whisper, pointing to the van and asked my grandpa, "Grandpa, look, Brother Wu Xie seems to be sitting in the wrong place."

This action also caused a lot of shock in the Huo family. Those men in black were about to come up to pull Wu Xie again, but the old lady Huo raised her hand and stopped the actions of those people.Then she looked at Wu Xie for a long time, and she didn't know what expression she had at that time. After a while, she turned her gaze to my grandfather again.

Then I clearly saw a playful smile on her face, showing a chill.

The lips moved, and I realized the meaning of the words from her mouth shape: let him sit if he wants to sit!

Everyone in the Huo family backed away, and no one came up to drag them.

My heart sank.

My grandfather gave an "oh" and moved in the chair, looking very interested.Even Xue Er narrowed his eyes and showed a playful smile: "Old Xu, we haven't seen a lamplighter for about 30 years."

Throughout this moment, my mind was in a mess, and the only thought that crossed my mind was: Damn, I'm going to be big this time, I'm really going to be big this time.

Dad Wu, the place you are sitting in is really not a fucking place, you can't make it!

At the moment, I don't want to care about the scene anymore, I just want to shout when I open my mouth.At this moment, the voice of the master of ceremonies suddenly came: "Bosses, La Liga, place name, lamps."

Immediately all voices fell silent, and everyone once again adjusted their attention to look at the box opposite us.

A spotlight hit the seat where Wu Xie was, illuminating his entire body very clearly. I saw him froze, quite surprised, and I'm afraid he hadn't realized what happened at all.

There was a burst of warm applause from the entire venue!

If the previous round of applause to my grandfather was restrained as a sign of respect, this time it was definitely full of enthusiasm!Some people even stood up from their seats on the ground floor and waved their hands to Wu Xie!It was only then that I realized that those who came to this kind of place for auction were absolute gamblers, and all their enthusiasm had been completely ignited by the lighting of sky lanterns, so that the applause could not stop for a long time.

I can't speak now...

By now, I am afraid that there is no room for change...

Long live!

I squeezed the back of my grandfather's seat tightly, only to feel that the air became thick and hard to enter my throat.

Then, I saw my grandfather leaning over to my grandfather, and said leisurely with a smile: "Liang Youdao, I remember you just said that you want to protect this grandson-in-law?"

I gasped, and turned my eyes to my grandfather.Boss Liang stretched out his cane and knocked on the table next to Mr. Xu: "Duyi, remove this thing and bring me a chair."

Liang Shiyi hastily moved the table away, and got another grand master's chair just like my grandfather's.

Boss Liang straightened his collar, hooked his cane to the armrest, and sat down side by side with Mr. Xu.

"Old Xu, listen to me." He smiled at my grandfather, "I really like this grandson-in-law. Now you can see if I can keep it."

As soon as the words fell, my brother also came up, stood behind grandpa, grabbed my hand and pulled me to his side: "Come here, everyone in the Liang family is here, where are you going to stand?" I asked I was speechless, my head was swollen, and my grandfather said coldly: "Okay, okay, you surnamed Liang! I also want to see if the light will go off in the end today!"

"Grandpa..." I murmured, but was stopped by Xue Er waving his hand, and even Xu Zhonglin shook his head at me.

Liang Qiwei stood on the other side of me and put his hand on my shoulder.

Indistinctly, the two families stood on both sides of an invisible watershed and faced each other. Even Liang Siyu hesitated for a while, then ran to stand behind me with his head bowed.

I shut up.

It's useless to say anything now.

The process of taking goods starts at this moment.

A guy came out from one side of the stage. He was as strong as a cow, holding a bamboo pole in his hand, which was more than three meters long. There was a silver hook on the head of the bamboo pole.I saw him use a bamboo pole to hook up the silver ring on the glass cabinet, and lifted the glass cabinet up like a fish, then he forked it into the air with a very steady gesture, and went straight to Wu Xie and the others to send it to the box.

Since someone is holding the lamp, he should be the first to see the goods.

Then there is my grandfather.

I noticed that although the situation was tense, Mr. Xu still observed the delivered items patiently, but my grandfather didn't even bother to look at them.I know very well in my heart that in terms of palm eyes, the Liang family, which has prospered through buying and selling, is not as professional as my grandfather.Now that Wu Xie has lit the lamp, and my grandfather claims to be his guarantor, it makes no difference whether he looks at it or not.

Not long after, someone sent a lamp to Wu Xie's side, the size of a watermelon, and the cloth was blue, rather dim.Seeing that the man gave it to Wu Xie, the fat man took it, and after being instructed, hung it on the black shelf next to Wu Xie.

Once again, the arena erupted with applause.In the midst of an uproar, the guy who picked up the lot before picked up small bells and sent them to each box.When we arrived at our side, manager Xiao Yang took over the bell and handed it over to shopkeeper Xue Er.

I saw Mrs. Huo also took the bell and placed it on the table beside me.The other Huo family gathered around the old lady, forming a certain distance from Wu Xie and the others.Wu Xie was still looking at the lantern beside him, looking thoughtful, but the fat man was very excited to see me, and waved at me nervously as if he didn't know the imminent disaster.Alas, Fat Master, this time is really big...

Zhang Ma, an expert in the world, doesn't care about the strange atmosphere around him at all. From the beginning to the end, he maintains the role of a cold-faced bodyguard, and his eyes fall more on the previous lot. I doubt he even realizes my existence. .It wasn't until the fat man kept tugging at the corner of his clothes to draw his attention that he adjusted his gaze and looked towards us.For a while, my heart was surging again.

Mama Zhang, Mama Zhang, you really want to protect Papa Wu well today. This time he made a big fuss. If my grandpa comes to take care of you, you will really be in the boat of the Liang family. There is no way you can get out now. What to do!Damn, don't be so expressionless, okay, did you see me?Hey, turn your face around, you haven't seen enough fucking Yuxi, how much do you pay attention to that thing!

Ugh!

It's hard to describe Wang Meng's situation clearly. To describe it, his face has the helpless expression of an elementary school student who was hijacked by a high school student to do bad things.Brother Wang, this is really the first time I have asked you to see all the big scenes again!

Time passed by almost in a flash, and soon each box received the rattle, and a guy knocked around the venue with a gong, and the clattering disappeared immediately, and the venue was completely silent, and the first round of hawking began.

The author has something to say:

Haha, I really like the scene of lighting up the sky lanterns in the original book, it is really well written!I really like it!
