Chapter 64 Beating and Scolding(1/2)
It was the young woman of unknown origin and strong cultivation who took away the jade last time?!
He felt inexplicably that he had done something wrong...
The next auction went on normally and boringly.
The further you go to the back, the higher the quality of the auction items, and the more lively the bidding.
As expected, Sun Hou was able to acquire all the treasures and rare elixir weapons that Yu Hu had wanted. However, the competition was fierce, and Ling Ge was in the middle, so the final transaction prices were all higher than the usual market prices.
price.
This time Ling Ge really used the tricks Yu Hu thought he had just thought, but he couldn't tell the difference!
After the auction is successfully concluded, the distinguished guests in the private room will get the auction items from the first floor. Only then will the guests on the large platform have the opportunity to see the distinguished faces of the distinguished guests in the private room.
Ling Ge and Gong Shan were still wearing black cloaks and masks. When they walked to the first floor, they looked up and saw Yu Hu first.
He and Lu Zhiang were waiting at the front, their faces so cloudy that they could drip with water.
He took a photo of a rare healing elixir, which was not of top quality, but cost him 600,000 taels, which was a full 200,000 taels higher than the market price.
This was all he had managed to grab, otherwise he would have left this auction empty-handed.
But the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, especially since the woman was no longer interested in other items after taking the jade, which made him more suspicious.
Yu Hu is waiting here because he wants to negotiate with the woman as soon as possible and talk about the jade matter.
Ling Ge and Gong Shan had outstanding temperaments and attracted everyone's attention as soon as they appeared. Many people who knew Gong Shan came up to say hello to them, and other guests in the private room also nodded to them.
During the auction just a few hours ago, they had already gotten to know the guest in Room No. 6, and they had begun to make friends.
Ling Ge nodded in return, his attitude neither humble nor overbearing.
Yu Hu was about to step forward to speak, when suddenly Lu Zhiang behind him spoke first.
"It turns out to be Master Shan. The charming Master Shan even knows this girl?"
Lu Zhiang's tone was full of uncontrollable sourness.
Gong Shan continued walking down without changing his expression, and quietly blocked Ling Ge behind him.
"Yes, it's a friend of mine, Master Lu Er. What a coincidence."
Yu Hu looked at Lu Zhiang, then at Ling Ge and Gong Shan, "Who is this?"
"Yu Zunshi, this is the famous good master in Qutong City. Shanshan Master, this is Yu Zunshi from the Qianshan Sect."
When Yu Hu heard this, he didn't take Gong Shan seriously. The characters in Qutong City, no matter how sophisticated they were, were just inconspicuous little characters.
But considering that he knew the woman, Yu Hu was not too arrogant. He nodded to Gong Shan as a greeting, and then continued to focus on the woman behind him.
The woman was wearing a particularly exquisite and luxurious pink brocade dress and a mask, but he recognized it at a glance as the woman who robbed Li Chao's family that day!
"Master Shan, why don't you introduce this girl?" Lu Zhiang naturally understood what Yu Hu was thinking.
Gong Shan smiled slightly, which was like the spring breeze blowing on his face, making people feel happy.
"This Miss Song is my distinguished guest. She likes to be low-key and doesn't like publicity. I'm afraid she doesn't want me to reveal my identity in public."
Ling Ge Shiran came out and said to Hu: "Steward Sun told me, is Ambassador Yu coming to see me? Just tell me if you have anything to say."
"This..." Yu Hu looked around and hesitated a little, "I want to ask the girl to talk, but I don't know..."
"Okay," Ling Ge agreed simply, "But I don't have much time. I have to leave after grabbing my things."
"girl……"
Yu Hu was about to ask Ling Geya to speak when suddenly someone came from behind with a smile.
"Sorry for the long wait, everyone."
It turned out that Sun Hou came with his waiters. Each of the waiters was holding a large or small brocade box and delivered it to the distinguished guests one by one.
Ling Ge opened his brocade box, glanced at it, and put it into the ring.
"Thank you, Manager Sun. See you later." After saying that, he left with Gong Shan.
Yu Hu quickly stopped him, "Girl, wait a minute!"
Unexpectedly, Sun Hou stepped forward and stood in front of him. He bowed his hands respectfully and said, "Yu Zunshi, Second Young Master Lu, the total is 600,000 taels, and you haven't settled it yet."
"Pfft..."
Immediately, people around him snickered.
Among those here today, there are all prominent figures, and there are some families who are not from the Lindan Kingdom at all. They are very happy to see the jokes made by the Lu family of the Lindan Kingdom!
Yu Huqing remained silent and stared at Lu Zhiang with his eyes.
Lu Zhiang coughed lightly and said, "Manager Sun, didn't I give you money just now?"
"Yes, you gave me five thousand taels, but according to the rules of Gufang Pavilion, no credit is given. Please make up the remaining five hundred and ninety-five thousand taels."
"How can it be that our dignified Lindan Lu family can't even afford this mere six hundred thousand taels? It's just that I didn't bring that much money with me today."
"Hahaha," the onlookers laughed again.
"Who do you think is a fool, Mr. Lu? Don't you have a storage ring? If you have one, why don't you wear it?"
"Haha, this is the first time I've seen someone come to an auction without any money!"
"That's right! I was so happy when I increased the price just now, why would I rush to increase the price if it really wasn't there!"
…
Amidst the laughter, Yu Hu's anger became more and more intense.
Although the good young master and the woman did not speak, he must have lost all face!
"Crack!"
Yu Hu slammed a ring on the counter, "There are ten thousand taels in it, I owe the rest first, go to Lu's house to get it!"
"This..." Sun Hou looked embarrassed, "With so many distinguished guests watching, if I make an exception today for the sake of respect, will I still be able to do this business in the future?"
"Sun Hou!" Yu Hu shouted sharply, "Look clearly! I am the envoy of Qianshan Sect!"
Someone next to him suddenly snorted, "What's wrong with the envoy of Qianshan Sect? Not to mention you are just a small envoy. Even if the elders of your sect come to Gufang Pavilion, they must abide by the rules!"
"The reputation of the Qianshan Sect, which has been a large sect for hundreds of years, has been ruined by villains like you!"
The person who spoke was the guest in the private room No. 3 just now. Gong Shan had introduced him to Ling Ge. He was a family from a nearby country. Not only had he always been at odds with the Lu family, but he was also closer to the Qianshan Sect than the Lu family.
The people I came into contact with were also senior officials of the Qianshan Sect.
After being exposed by him like this, Yu Hu's words of authority were stuck in his throat.
Sun Hou quickly bowed and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Chen, for speaking up."
"You're welcome, Manager Sun. We have been friends for many years. I will make the decision for you today. If he can't get it, I will get the money back for you even if I get to Qianshan Sect!"
"Thank you very much!"
Now that someone was taking the lead, the people watching the excitement did not think it was a big deal. They hugged their shoulders and stared at Yu Hu and Lu Zhiang, just to see how they would end.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Zhiang quickly took out a jade tablet and handed it to Sun Hou. He bowed and saluted again and again: "It is indeed a bit inconvenient today. I'm sorry, Manager Sun. I'll keep this jade tablet here. I'll use this in a few days."
If you go to Lu's house to pick it up, you will definitely lose every penny. No, no, I will deliver it tomorrow!"
Sun Hou took it and took a look. This piece of jade was of high quality. It was engraved with the emblem of the Lu family and Lu Zhiang's name. It should be an identity jade plaque. It was the only piece of jade. With this, there was no fear that the Lu family would not recognize it.
He put the jade away and said: "Even if your jade token is here, I have to write down an IOU before I can leave. I have agreed that you will send the money tomorrow and I will return the jade token and the IOU together."
"Still writing an IOU?!" Lu Zhiang almost couldn't control himself and was about to get angry again, but when he saw the people in the store, he immediately fainted again.
"Okay, I'll write."
After writing the IOU, the head of the Chen family was satisfied and left. Yu Hu grabbed his brocade box and rushed out to find Ling Ge and Gong Shan.
But where can they still be seen?
"Envoy Yu, what should we do now?"
"They must not have gone far, chase them quickly!"
*
The carriage that Ling Ge and Gong Shan were riding in was not moving very fast. It just made twists and turns and went into a less crowded alley.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves chasing behind them, the two looked at each other and prepared their weapons in tacit agreement.
The highlight of tonight is here!
"Stop!" Yu Hu rode his horse to block the carriage's way, "Please see Miss Song!"
Ling Ge opened the curtain, revealing a delicate face with melon seeds, "Has Yu Zunshi's money been paid in full?"
Yu Hu endured the embarrassment and avoided answering. He only asked: "Why did you take pictures of that piece of jade tonight?"
"If you like something at an auction, buy it if you like it. Do you need a reason?" Ling Ge laughed brightly.
"But why that piece of jade! Why are you trying to snatch it from me! You obviously did it on purpose!" Yu Hu was furious.
Ling Ge blinked mischievously, "Why do you want to steal it deliberately? Do I still know who I'm bidding with?"
