"Three!" Yu Honghong screamed in surprise, then immediately lowered her voice, "Three thousand taels?"

Seeing Wang Yanhuai nod, she knew that they were rich, but she didn't expect them to be so rich.

"This is just some of the big ones. I saw that her wife had a cloth bag in her hand which was also full. The white silver was overflowing. The small-denomination banknotes in my shop were gone, and I had to ask Lao Gao to exchange them." As he said this, he looked at the place where Gao Daban had stood before.

"Hey, where's Lao Gao? Why is he gone?"

Yu Honghong curled her lips, "I guess she's sad."

"Why are you sad? I paid one-fifth of the interest."

"When the peasant couple was in my shop, they were talking about going to Lao Gao's bank." Yu Honghong said disdainfully, "I guess the guys in Lao Gao's shop looked down on us again and drove them away in anger."

Yu Honghong waved her hand and said, "No more talking, just help me save it."

Wang Yanhuai took the banknote from Yu Honghong and said, "I'll deposit it for you."

After saving it, he handed the voucher to Yu Honghong. Seeing the wound on Yu Honghong's hand, he reached out and took her hand, "Erhong, what happened to your hand?"

"It was an accidental bump. It will be fine in a few days."

"How can that be..." Before Wang Yanhuai could finish his words, he was shouted at by someone upstairs.

"Wang Yanhuai! Try holding my hand again!" Wang Yanhuai's wife pointed at Wang Yanhuai with a feather duster in her hand.

Yu Honghong withdrew her hand and said, "You should take care of your family affairs first." Then she took the certificate in her hand and left the bank.

Wang Yanhuai's wife took a feather duster and hit Wang Yanhuai a few times, "Wang Yanhuai, don't forget that you are our Xiao family's son-in-law. If I find out that you are messing around, I will kill you."

After saying that, he walked to the door with a feather duster, looked at Yu Honghong's back and roared, "Yu Honghong, you vixen, if I find out that you seduce my Yan Huai again, I will skin you alive."

Su Wanning, who was holding a snack, raised her head when she heard the sound and looked in the direction of the sound. "Is there another good show to watch?"

As he was about to move forward, Zhan Beiwang pulled him back, "There's no sound anymore. It must be over."

Su Wanning stood and listened for a while, and when she found that there was indeed no sound, she sat down and continued to eat the snacks in her bowl.

After finishing the meal, Su Wanning burped with satisfaction. There was still a long street to stroll along, so it was a good opportunity to digest the food and see if there was anything else to eat and buy some to take home as a midnight snack.

As they were strolling around, they came to a place called Zhenbaozhai. Su Wanning thought it was a place to eat, but she didn't expect that it was actually an auction venue.

Su Wanning also wanted to see what the auction here was like, so she prepared to go in.

Unexpectedly, they were stopped by the guard at the door. "You two, if you don't have an invitation, you need to pay ten taels of silver per person for the entrance fee."

I didn't expect that they would charge an entrance fee, but it makes sense when I think about it. After all, if they didn't charge an entrance fee, I'm afraid people at the door wouldn't be able to squeeze in.

Su Wanning took out twenty taels from the cloth bag and handed it to him.

After entering, I saw a large platform in the middle, with tables and chairs in front, and a lot of snacks on each table.

There are also quite a few rooms upstairs, and you can tell at a glance that they belong to some wealthy businessmen in the city, or they may need to pay extra fees.

Thinking of this, she found a table and sat down.

People continued to sit down at the table next to us, until almost all the people were seated.

Someone put a booklet in everyone's hands, which should contain pictures of the items to be auctioned this time.

Su Wanning opened it and took a look. She had to say that the artist was quite skilled and everything in the album was very exquisite.

Su Wanning turned to the last page but there was nothing she wanted to buy.

Zhan Beiwang took the booklet and pointed at the jewels on it, "Don't you like these?"

Su Wanning shook her head. "I don't want anything from a dead person."

The person next to him snorted when he heard it.

Su Wanning looked at the man, "Why? Do you like dead people?"

"You!" The man pointed at Su Wanning, but was scared away by a look from Zhan Beiwang who was standing beside him.

"It's totally against the rules and she has no manners at all for a woman to come to the auction house," the man added.

Su Wanning pointed at the people on the second floor and said, "So you have such a strong background that you even dare to lecture the rich lady upstairs."

The man's face turned pale instantly, and then he stood up and walked out in panic.

Su Wanning looked at the man's back, turned around and saw a young lady standing in the window of the room upstairs in front of her.

Su Wanning poked Zhan Beiwang beside her and asked, "Do you know that lady?"

Zhan Beiwang looked up and then shook his head. "Aning, we came to Lingnan together. How could we have the chance to get to know the people in the city? But since he was able to scare that person just now, his status in Mu Dynasty City must be quite high."

Su Wanning nodded. She also agreed with Zhan Beiwang's opinion. She looked up again and saw that the young lady was looking at her. Su Wanning looked at her for a while.

The lady curled her lips slightly, then turned around and sat back in her seat.

Su Wanning withdrew her gaze only after she could no longer see the young lady.

Why did she feel that the man just now looked at her as if he were looking at - prey?

Or was it just her illusion?

Su Wanning leaned closer to Zhan Beiwang and said, "When Mo Lan arrives, ask him to find out who the person upstairs was just now."

Zhan Beiwang nodded and looked at the window again. This was the first time Su Wanning was interested in someone.

The auction began soon after.

Su Wanning was indifferent to everything on the stage until a pair of colorful glass cups appeared on it.

Su Wanning opened her eyes wide in surprise. Why did the cup look so much like a modern handicraft?

Zhan Beiwang looked at Su Wanning and asked, "Are you interested in this pair of glass cups?"

Su Wanning shook her head and nodded, "Has this kind of glass lamp appeared before?"

Zhan Beiwang nodded. "A few pairs of these glass lamps were previously presented as tribute to the royal family by foreign lands. What's wrong with that?"

Su Wanning shook her head. She thought there were other people who came from modern times like her.

But I still want to take a picture and study it carefully.

He then raised the sign in his hand and spent one hundred taels of silver to buy it.

The pair of glass cups were immediately brought in front of her, and Su Wanning immediately picked up one and put it to her nose to smell it.

It doesn't have the smell of modern handicrafts at all. When I knock on it, it makes a crisp sound.

Did she really think too much?

Su Wanning didn't pay attention to the following exhibits, her entire attention was attracted by the pair of glass cups.

After the auction ended, Zhan Beiwang pulled him up and said, "Aning, let's go."

Seeing that Su Wanning was still frowning, he asked, "Aning, when you saw the pair of glass cups just now, you looked worried. What are you worried about? Can you tell me?"
