"This item is really precious, so I'll show it to you in advance. Please prepare the silver and money."

Lan Wangshu laughed and made a joke with everyone, livening up the atmosphere.

"The county lady really opened my eyes."

"Yeah, it's very rare to take a look at it."

"I'm waiting to thank the county lady for her kindness."

Lan Wangshu accepted the compliments from everyone with peace of mind. Didn't he have to thank her? If it weren't for her, they wouldn't have been able to see these modern civilizations.

"Thank you for your kindness, let's see what else is there next?"

"Then there is the blood sandalwood carved snuff bottle with glass beads donated by Mr. Jin."

Her eyes accidentally swept towards Mr. Jin, and saw that his expression suddenly became dull and a little confused. In the end, he really couldn't figure it out, so he whispered something to the entourage around him.

"Master, do I have such a thing as glass beads?"

"I'm back, but you haven't."

"Yes, I don't have it, how can the county lady say that I do?"

"Master, since the county lady said we have it, let's have it."

Mr. Jin touched his beard and nodded, saying to his old friend, "You are really tall."

He felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to explain it.

"Old Jin, you already have such a good item, but you still bid against each other in the auction. What's the point?"

"I just want to donate more and earn more face. We old brothers can also have a good reputation. Isn't this...right! It's called win-win."

The other wealthy businessman looked him over carefully, as if it was the first day he met him.

"Old Jin, when did you realize this? No wonder your business is so big."

"It's all coincidence and good luck."

"This is not just luck. If you find any good business, remember to bring me along."

"It's easy to talk about."

"Next is the double-sided folding screen embroidered with silver thread and full of stars prepared by the Cheng family."

They are all well-known people and have a natural admiration for gold. No one would take out silver thread to embroider and put it here on this occasion.

The meaning was self-evident. They exchanged glances without saying much.

The old Minister of Personnel felt a little embarrassed, he didn't expect that his daughter would actually use silver thread. The Cheng family must have given her less food or drink, which made him lose face so much.

"Lord Cheng should give his daughter more personal belongings. It's really not enough. You might as well just say it's Cheng Xi's."

Elder Lin's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, but there were always a few people with sharp ears who could hear it, and their faces showed contempt.

Not only did he secretly use his daughter's gift for auction, but he was also so bad to his daughter on weekdays. It was really laughable that a noble lady from a wealthy family could only give him a small amount of money.

The Minister of Personnel's old face turned red, and he wished he could find a hole in the ground. He had never felt so embarrassed in his life. He felt so awkward and extremely uncomfortable.

"What Elder Lin said is true. I don't know what this girl is thinking."

"The girl has grown up, and she needs someone to take good care of her. You can't just ignore her because she has some mental problems. After all, she is your daughter."

Elder Lin's words contained too much information. Many people were no longer in the mood to listen to Lan Wangshu's application list. They were only concerned about the situation of the Cheng family.

"Yes."

"Master Hua donated a piece of fine steel. Most current smelting processes cannot produce this. If you need a sharp weapon, you can consider it. It has not been sharpened yet, so it can only be said to be fine steel."

Lan Wangshu asked Wu Yan to bring the thing up for everyone to see. It was the prototype of a knife, with smooth lines, proper proportions, and a sharp metallic luster all over.

Lan Wangshu simply demonstrated some strength and resilience, which has already attracted the attention of those who are interested.

“This item has to find a destined buyer. Only someone who understands the item will know its value.”

Lan Wangshu smiled and told Wu Yan to take it down quickly, and then continued to talk about the layout until the last page.

"The last lot is an authentic calligraphy by Li Bai. After all the guests have finished bidding, I, as the organizer, will paint a picture for everyone to auction. These are all the lots. Thank you."

Lan Wangshu spoke in a calm and steady tone as he informed everyone of all the arrangements.

"Speaking of which, did anyone hear what Elder Lin sent?"

Mo Yici stood up without hesitation. Not only did he not allocate funds to them, he also refused to donate money or materials. It would be strange if he did not make trouble.

Hua Qiming can help protect Lan Wangshu in the court, so let him take on this thorn in the side.

……

It was obvious that no one heard it. One by one, they looked up at the sky, down at the ground, or some even dozed off. No one spoke.

Lord Lin's face turned green. What did this have to do with public execution? Hua Qiming, that kid, didn't say anything, which gave Mo Yici an opportunity.

"What do you mean, young general?"

"It doesn't make any sense. If Lord Lin doesn't want to donate, then he didn't donate. Don't say that money should be spent wisely. Lord Lin is a Pixiu."

Mo Yici is a general and has military power in his hands. Even if it is not much, he is not intimidated when he sees Elder Lin, and he looks like he sees through you.
