Chapter 102： 102 Lost

Chapter 102 102 Lost

Located in Mingxin Square near Tanyang Xingyuan, it was contracted by Yaoyuan Book Club and held a five-day exchange meeting venue.

In the five days, young ladies and gentlemen, big and small, both inside and outside the city, will gather here to exchange old and ancient books and sundries.

Gatherings like    have also attracted many booksellers, collectors, and young men and women who want to cling to power.

Layers of relationships, connections, favors, and money made this exchange a lot of handsome men and women who were not eligible to participate.

Similarly, the beauty of the scenery also attracts a wider circle of gangsters and the like.

The increase in the number of    made the scale of this exchange even larger.

So the influence of the Shaoyuan Book Club has expanded again and again.

"My spirit is from top to bottom, and I love all kinds of parties.

Cocktail party, tea party, dance party, music party, moving party, farewell party, a meeting on a good day, a meeting before the study tour, and a meeting after the study tour. In addition, there are birthday parties, apology parties, drama parties, and harvest parties.”

Beside Mingxin Square, there are rows of long houses.

Sun Chaoyue is leading people to inspect various situations where people are preparing for the exchange meeting.

Drinks and food, reception staff, **** patrols, and external communication, all of which can't tolerate a single mistake.

You must know that so many people gather together, and many of them are rich and wealthy at home.

The power they gathered, even Sun Chaoyue dared not despise and neglect.

At this moment, she was wearing a water blue one-piece dress, her sleeveless upper body exposed her white arms like lotus roots, and her legs also showed a small half of her thighs.

The bright red silk and gold silk belt binds his waist with a slender and light weight.

He has long hair reaching his waist, and only has a purple jade forehead around his forehead.

Between the walks, the colorful beads hanging on the hem of the dress reflect the sunlight, making it bright and eye-catching.

At this time, she was patrolling and talking to a handsome young man beside her.

The young man is wearing a white shirt, with black jade hanging from his waist, and Tai Chi black and white yin and yang fish tattooed on his cuffs.

His face is handsome, his eyes are clear, and his complexion is fairer and more delicate than a woman.

This person's name is Zhong Yuran, the son of the Lord of the Heavenly Jade Palace of Zhenyijiao, and now he has entered the fourth rank at the age of twenty-four. In the entire Tanyang City, he was only slightly weaker than Sun Chaoyue.

"The so-called upper and lower effect, Ling Ting likes gatherings, we naturally follow suit below, why did Chaoyue suddenly mention this?"

"It's just. In the past few days, I had to attend six meetings in five days. I was really tired." Sun Chaoyue frowned slightly, "I didn't want to go, but I had to go."

"In this world, one has to be busy with these tedious and trivial things. Even the governor of the state, my master, is still unavoidable." Zhong Yuran nodded.

"Since you're tired, how about I accompany you to the palace to relax after the meeting?" He said softly.

"Forget it. You can't delay your cultivation now." Sun Chaoyue shook her head gently.

The two walked to a corner, where several people were arranging volumes.

The names are recorded one by one, and they are the candidates for this meeting.

"Real attendees put aside, invitees put aside. Outlines are listed separately."

A man who looks like a supervisor directs several people to do things

Seeing Sun Chaoyue approaching, the man stepped forward and bowed.

"Sun Li has seen Miss."

"How is it?" Sun Chaoyue asked casually.

"Everything has been arranged, but, after re-checking the background information of some participants' list, the order of the positions cannot be wrong." Sun Li replied respectfully.

The manifestation of    status, even in this exchange meeting, must be manifested.

Otherwise, the weak will be placed in high positions and will be restless.

The strong will be dissatisfied when they are placed in a low position.

At that time, people will surely be offended.

"Show me the list." Sun Chaoyue reached out and took the list and scanned it from top to bottom.

"Xie Zhanfei's position is lower. He has officially received the admission permit from Ningde Academy three days ago. Three seats have been raised."

"Yes."

"Xun Nuo's position is higher, this person is just relying on the power of the Xu family to move down five seats."

"Lin Qixiao?" Sun Chaoyue pondered for a while, "Three seats down, she's already retired, and even if she recovers from her injuries, she won't be able to practice martial arts. Also, this person has a bad character, I don't like it."

"In this way, that day at Xuangong's Lin family's side." Sun Li asked for instructions in a low voice.

"Whoever has a problem will come to me." Sun Chaoyue said lightly.

"Yes."

Sun Chaoyue continued to look down, fine-tuning the positions of the candidates one by one.

Not long after, she saw the name of a person she cared about.

"Zhang Ying." Thinking of Li Huoyun's bottle of incense, she pursed her lips, "Ping and adjust to the position closest to the sisters of the book club."

"This person, Zhang Ying, I heard my uncle mentioned that in the case of the monthly knife, he was the one who grabbed the knife in the end. This person is brave and resourceful, and he should have been promoted by now."

Zhong Yuran said. There was a glimmer of admiration in his eyes.

"Then move him up two positions." Sun Chaoyue nodded.

She didn't care much about Zhong Yuran's evaluation.

Zhang Ying is a 3rd rank petty official, no matter how daring and resourceful, this kind of life-and-death battle involving 9th rank fugitives and 8th rank special envoys can be mixed with him by a 3rd rank?

Just think about it and you know there is a problem.

Rank 3 in front of Rank 8 is really the result of a one-shot kill.

So it seems that this promotion, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the support of the Li family Zaipei.

If there is no contribution from the Li family, and the credit is given to him, it is impossible for this person to improve again in such a short period of time.

Of course, she didn't bother to talk to her friends about such things. She knows Zhong Yuran's temperament, and once they disagree, they will argue more seriously.

It's really tiring.

"Next, Han Yuchun, move up two positions. Huo Liang, move down ten positions, this person is a repeat offender."

Each name was assigned to her seat, and Zhong Yuran was on the side, occasionally interjecting to comment on one or two.

the other side.

Zhang Rongfang and Li Huoyun's carriage finally arrived at the gate of Mingxin Field.

After    handed the invitation card to the guard at the gate, the two got off the carriage and stepped into the stadium.

The rows of tables and chairs in the field are neat and tidy, and some tables and chairs are already occupied by people.

Some books of different heights are stacked on the table, and people are sitting behind them, waiting to be exchanged.

Just like the formal second-hand book market in Zhang Rongfang's previous life.

"Go, let's go inside first. There is an auction." Li Huoyun pulled him all the way inside.

Through the rows of table and chair stalls, there is a larger open-air courtyard.

The difference here is that the tables and chairs are much larger than the ones outside.

There are maids and servants sitting on the seats.

And in the wooden huts at the back, there is the real master.

The main master was resting in the single cabin, separated by a layer of bead curtains, and the servant maids helped to exchange outside.

Li Huoyun brought Zhang Rongfang to his seat and sat down.

"Brother Zhang, I'm going to my place, take it easy, don't come here to buy books." He pointed out.

"Go, go, I know." Zhang Rongfang was speechless.

After he took his seat, he looked left and right. On the left was a young woman in a dark green long coat, with a beautiful appearance, holding a brush in her hand and slowly practicing calligraphy.

On the right is a tall man like a crown jade, in blue clothes, and his long hair is **** with a wish-fulfilling jade hairpin. He was subdividing the stacks of old books he had brought with him.

Now it seems that this place is divided into two fields, the inner and outer fields.

The outfield is of a lower grade, and the infield is attended by young masters and young ladies.

People with higher status have their own single room.

The lower ones sell books by themselves in front of their seats.

Of course, it is also possible that some people like to come by themselves, while others are reluctant to show their faces.

After a while, a gong rang.

A group of people came out from the corner. In his hand, he was holding something on a silver tray.

Sun Chaoyue walked at the back, lined up with a tall and handsome man, walked to the first two positions on the left and sat down.

"The first auction in the infield will begin now."

Under Zhang Rongfang's boring wait.

A woman in a green dress stepped forward.

"The first book to be auctioned today is Wang Yuanzhi's "Landscape Paintings", which records Wang Yuanzhi's many perceptions and records of paintings. The starting price is one hundred taels.

Hearing this, Zhang Rong was not interested anymore.

He is not interested in what these young masters and young ladies like.

But since they are all here, it is not good for him to get up and leave immediately.

Sitting in his position, he scanned the infield with his eyes. I did recognize several familiar faces.

Among them is the captain Lin Qixiaolin who was abolished by him before.

This current face is gloomy and indifferent, as if everyone owes her money.

There are also several young faces I have seen in the Palace of Mirrors. They are all high-level children.

Soon bidders came one after another, and old books were auctioned off one after another.

The price ranges from a hundred taels to a thousand taels.

Zhang Rongfang was stunned inwardly. It was indeed the biggest exchange meeting in Tanyang.

They are all really rich.

He touched the silver note in his pocket, feeling that if he wanted to buy anything this time, he might not be enough.

He brought all his available funds this time, a total of two hundred and fifty-two.

was worried, and soon, the girl in the green skirt changed another batch of trays, and picked up an item from one of the trays.

"Next, is our Rare and Exotic Objects section."

She raised the thing in her hand, it was a copper-colored metal part, and she didn't know what it was.

About the size of a palm, the surface is like a Rubik's cube, and there are cracks in the assembly.

"Here is the consignment of Tong Gongzi from Xiaoxiang, a broken part of a foreign **** statue. The base price is one hundred taels, and the starting price must not be less than ten taels each time."

Zhang Rongfang's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect that he had only found a similar item in the shop outside, and he encountered another one here.

He closed his eyes, opened them again, and the attribute bar was already open.

from afar. Sure enough, new information has been revealed on that thing.

‘Unknown statue part, weight unknown. ’

'Intuitive warning: There seems to be a secret hidden inside this object, which can only be explored after collecting all the parts. ’

Without waiting for Zhang Rongfang to take a closer look, the bidding started soon.

It seems that not many people are interested in this thing. Only three people made an offer and the thing was sold.

Zhang Rongfang hesitated for a while, but still didn't make a sound.

This thing is obviously not a part of the one he bought before.

Next, some items such as antique vases and pure jade carvings were brought up.

That kind of parts came up twice before. are the rest of the components.

This made Zhang Rongfang feel a little bit of doubt.

This kind of parts and components seems to be a lot, although it is precious, it does not seem to be rare.

He kept the attribute bar open, staring at the same auction items.

Until the twelfth item was taken out and held high.

"The next thing is a fragment of a Taoist statue. We found this damaged part in a catacomb not long ago.

Everyone knows the purpose of these parts, they are quite hard and hard to destroy. Has a very high collection value.

Now, the starting price is 200 taels, and a single time shall not be less than 12 taels. "

The thing this time is a statue of a **** that lacks the head and half of the body.

Because the volume is much larger, the starting price is also higher.

Zhang Rongfang originally thought that this was something similar to the previous things.

But when he saw this, the expression in his eyes changed slightly.

Because of the prompt that appears in the property bar, it is completely different from the previous one.

‘Do not know the door statue, the parameters are unknown. ’

'Intuitive warning: This item and the parts collected before seem to be a set. Maybe you can buy it back and assemble it. ’

"Here!" Zhang Rongfang raised a strong expectation in his heart.

Just a question flashed in his mind.

The secret parts that Lingting hid in the Moon-Zealing Knife before, caused Lingting to hunt and kill in various ways.

And these similar parts here, why can they be publicly auctioned without caring?

What is the difference between these parts?

"Two hundred and one!" Without hesitation, he immediately blurted out. At the same time, raise the auction board placed on the table. Indicate that you are bidding.
