Chapter three hundred and sixty, the ending of making dumplings(2/3)
After that, it’s time for you to start school. You have to go back to school no matter what this semester, and you have to get your degree after completing your credits. Isn’t that what you said last time in Guangzhou?”
Xiang Yinghua once said that Hua Youxian didn't know Wu Yuchong's identity as the master of the Wuchong faction. You Fang didn't tell anyone else. Now it seems that Hua Youxian really doesn't know. Wu Yuchong breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.
, she couldn't tell whether she felt sad or happy. She had a lot to say, but in the end she only said one sentence: "Xiao Xian, are you tired after coming from a long distance? After lunch, my sister is preparing to light a fire and cook.
Where’s the rice?”
Hua Youxian nodded happily and said, "Okay, okay, the food cooked by Sister Yuchong must be delicious."
After lunch was prepared, Hua Youxian ate very deliciously, but Wu Yuchong didn't take a few bites. After lunch, he cleaned up the bamboo house inside and outside, and then set off to leave Furong Valley Lianxin Bridge. Wu Yuchong wanted to go to Xiang
Yinghua said goodbye, but Fairy Yueying went nowhere in the mountains. She only left a landscape painting in the open space among the bamboo forests.
Hua Youxian made sure to help Wu Yuchong carry the pipa. When crossing the Lianxin Bridge, Wu Yuchong suddenly turned around and bowed to the bamboo forest and the bamboo house and pavilion in the forest.
You Fang asked Hua Youxian to pick up Wu Yuchong, and he was very considerate. When he walked out of the mountains at dusk, there was a special car waiting at the gate of Furong Valley Scenic Area. There were also two "bodyguards" in the car, which were sent to You Fang by He Yuanzhi.
The two "assistants" Cui Ge and Zhu Lou beside him drove to Chongqing and stayed there for one night. Instead of returning to Guangzhou the next day, they sent Wu Yuchong directly to Hong Kong.
Qi Ruoxue greeted Wu Yuchong at the Hong Kong Airport and introduced her to Chi Zhongwu who came to pick her up. Wu Yuchong was a distinguished guest of the Xianchi Auction House. Chi Zhongwu received her warmly and grandly, and Qi Ruoxue also treated her like
As close as ever, the care is very considerate and considerate.
Chi Zhongwu expressed his gratitude to Yuchong Pavilion in New York through Wu Yuchong, and introduced the preparations for the upcoming auction. He told Wu Yuchong that the scepter would definitely be auctioned for a price that far exceeded Xue Qinan's given price.
Sky-high price.
The three auctions planned by Youfang lasted for nearly half a year. Starting from the first controversial crown, they attracted the attention of major media and collectors at home and abroad. They were shocked, stirred, stirred, and the ladder was set up.
, the baggage has been completely shaken off, and this game has been successfully pushed to the climax. It is now difficult for Wu Yuchong not to make a fortune.
The once little-known Xianchi Auction House has now become a well-known firm in the international art collection community. Its status is no longer the same as it was six months ago. As long as Ikezhong Satoru is not a fool, he will naturally know how to use today's influence to maintain his reputation.
The development of Liang is a great situation, not to mention that he is not stupid but also very smart? In Qi Ruoxue's opinion, the investment in Xianchi Auction House is really worth it!
For Wu Yuchong, this is definitely a great happy event, at least on the surface it seems so. But after experiencing so many great joys and sorrows unknown to others, Wu Yuchong really can't get excited about this auction.
With a polite smile, she greeted Chi Zhongwu politely. Qi Ruoxue also noticed that she seemed to be in a bad mood, and thoughtfully advised her to rest early, but Wu Yuchong was thinking about another thing in his heart - whether he would be in a bad mood.
Met a tourist at the auction?
The first auction of Xianchi Auction House will be on March 23, 2012, the second day of the second lunar month in the Chinese lunar calendar, the Spring Dragon Festival, commonly known as the dragon raising its head. The third auction will be held on August 23, which happens to be the Chinese
The Qixi Festival falls on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, commonly known as the Qiqiao Festival. According to legend, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet on the Magpie Bridge.
Unfortunately, Wu Yuchong did not see You Fang at the auction, but there was something that made her happy. She unexpectedly met Xiao Yu and Tu Su at the auction site, and they sat next to her with Qi Ruoxue, each holding hands.
There was also a number plate in his hand. This was Chi Zhongwu's favor. Even Tu Su got a VIP status and entered the venue to watch the fun.
When Xiao Yu saw Wu Yuchong, he made a fuss and said, "Where have you been for such a long time? How come you have lost weight?"
Tu Su also said at the side: "Well, I have lost a little weight, but I am more beautiful than before."
Wu Yuchong replied apologetically: "I was not good. I slipped out to play and had no contact for such a long time. Brother You Fang was worried and sent someone to find me back."
While they were talking, the auction had already begun. The situation was not as expected by the traveler. The bidding process for most of the lots was quite fierce, and the total transaction amount that night was staggering. Of course, the highlight of the auction was when the scepter appeared.
Almost everyone let out an exclamation.
The scepter that Xue Qinan sent from Yuchong Pavilion in New York originally belonged to the 13th-century Kaiser Friedrich, who organized and launched the sixth and most successful Crusade, but the Pope at the time
However, Gregory IX did not recognize the crusade and denounced Frederick II as a "ambitious man who stole Jerusalem".
This successful Eastern Expedition led to conflicts between the Kaiser and the Pope, conflicts among European countries in the Middle Ages, conflicts between Catholicism and so-called paganism, and conflicts between factions within the Catholic Church. In short, it was a complicated but definitely interesting period for future generations.
It is even entangled in the history so far, so after the hype of the first two auctions, the preciousness of such a cultural relic has been exaggerated by the media.
This scepter is made of gold and is about one meter long. It is shaped like a slender cross or a cross sword. In the middle of the cross handle, there is a sapphire the size of a dove egg inlaid on each side. The four corners of the sapphire
, surrounded by four pearls with a diameter of one centimeter, and various gems and pearls are inlaid along the scepter, making it look very luxurious.
The value of gold, pearls and jade is insignificant in this situation, but they can blind the eyes of the world. The beauty of the scepter itself also gives people a hint of rarity. At the end of the bidding, four people came from Germany, Italy, and Israel.
The "big collectors" in Saudi Arabia were at loggerheads, and in the end it was the mysterious Saudi buyer whose name was not disclosed who bought it for a sky-high price of 46 million pounds, or nearly 500 million yuan.
Tu Su was so surprised that he couldn't even close his mouth, but Wu Yuchong didn't have any particularly excited expression on his face. Xiao Yu patted the back of Wu Yuchong's hand with admiration and said: "Okay, you are really good at it, you are so calm!"
After the auction, Hua Youxian directly arranged a car to take Wu Yuchong to the airport. Tu Su and others were very reluctant to leave and asked Wu Yuchong why he didn't stay for two more days and why he left in such a hurry? Hua Youxian explained obediently:
"Sister Yu Chong has been sneaking away to China for a long time this time. Grandma Xue called Brother You last time. Brother You promised to take good care of Sister Yu Chong and send her back before school starts."
Qi Ruoxue took Wu Yuchong's hand and said: "You Fang is too busy these days and happens to have important things to deal with. I can't come to see you off in person. Please tell me to tell you to take good care of yourself and take care of yourself when you go back."
Hello grandma. Come and play when you have time. You are welcome at any time. He also said that he will go to the United States to visit you when he has time."
Perhaps You Fang didn't understand women's thoughts too well, so why did he ask Qi Ruoxue to convey such words? Wu Yuchong could only say thank you, and after thinking for a long time, he asked in a low voice: "Will he really come?"
Tu Su replied with a smile on his face: "Of course Brother You Fang will go, he never lies!"
You Fang or Mei Lande never lie? What a cold joke! But Tu Su smiled like a flower when he said this, and Wu Yuchong could only be speechless. Hua Youxian interrupted at the right time: "It's getting late, Sister Yuchong should
It’s time to board the plane, we still have to fly for more than ten hours.”
Everyone stood at the security checkpoint and waved goodbye, but Wu Yuchong did not dare to look back. He walked far into the terminal and then reached out to wipe away the tears on his face.
...You Fang didn't miss Wu Yuchong on purpose. Although the Xianchi Auction House's Golden Autumn Special Auction was a sensation, there was a grander party in the world that was unknown to outsiders. On the same night, You Fang went to Baiyun Villa
A banquet was held to invite guests from the Feng Sect all over the world. The heads of each sect arrived with the elders of the sect and important disciples and successors.
Visiting as a guest might annoy Mr. Rand. I was embarrassed to bring too many people, but everyone still wanted to come, so there were quite a few people. In total, more than 200 and nearly 300 people came to Baiyun Mountain. Fortunately, the place in the villa is big enough.
, the two halls on the left and right on the first floor are full, and the viewing platform in front of the door is also equipped with tables and chairs.
You Fang and the elders of various sects naturally ate in the main banquet hall on the left hand side of the first floor, but in order to make it easier to talk to everyone, they later even placed the wine table on the lawn outside. The head of Songhe Valley invited several seniors to Xiaoli,
They worked together to cast spells and set up a large formation to cover the entire villa, preventing the lively sounds here from disturbing the outside world.
You Fang is the worship elder of the Xunluan, Xiaosha, Jiuxing, and Songhegu sects, and is in charge of the Xinglong Order of the Xingfa sect and the Qianji Sword of the Qiangong sect. Even if he does not have the status of an Earth Qi master, he is in the current Jianghu sect.
It can also be said to be unparalleled in prestige. How can everyone come to visit empty-handed? The gifts, no matter whether they are expensive or not, are very commemorative and unique. But this gift is a very cost-effective one, because the return gift from Liu Li, the representative of the tour group, is worth a thousand dollars.
With so many people coming from each sect, the details of the reception were complicated. In fact, it was the Xunluan sect who made the arrangements, because the Xunluan sect’s dojo is also in Baiyun Mountain. The banquet and related ceremonies were also planned by Zhang Xi, who “hosted it.”
"Ren" is Qianbei Taoist priest of Diezhang sect.
Nominally Liu Li is no longer alive, and it is known to the whole world that he died together with Tang Chaoshang on Xuanji Peak. Although it would be fine if You Fang took out the measuring ruler and announced that he would inherit the earth master's mantle, the scene would not look too formal, so
Such a witness and proclaimer was needed to preside over the ceremony, and Taoist Qianbei who was staying on Xuanji Peak at that time was the most suitable person.
According to You Fang's plan, the dinner begins. Some of the disciples from each sect may not be familiar with each other. They chat and drink first to warm up the atmosphere. Then Taoist Qianbei will appear on the stage and formally report to everyone what happened on Xuanji Peak, and then
Grandly introduce Mr. Rand, fulfill Liu Li's "last mission", and express gratitude to all factions.
However, Zhang Xi reminded the tourists that they could not do this. For the sake of courtesy, they should set up a spirit to pay homage to Liu Li in front of the Baiyun Villa. When Zhang Xi made this suggestion, he was still muttering in his heart: "Has Mr. Rand been in trouble recently?"
Too busy and tired? You have even neglected such an important joint. Fortunately, someone reminded you!"
It's not that You Fang didn't expect this. He had already accompanied Lang Jisheng to pay homage to Liu Li once in Qingcheng Mountain. At that time, he felt awkward. He knew that the old man was living a happy life, but he had to pretend to be sad to pay homage to him.
But since Zhang Xi proposed it, he could no longer pretend to be confused, so he had to secretly agree with a wry smile and nod his thanks repeatedly.
That night, after everyone gathered together, Taoist Qianbei let out a long whistle, and the whole place was silent. An incense table and a memorial tablet were placed on the steps in front of the door. Taoist Qianbei walked to the center, with tears in his eyes, and told everyone about Xuanji Peak with respect and regret.
What happened above - Senior Liu Li, a century-old legend in the contemporary world, was a scumbag like Tang Dynasty Shang, passed down the mantle of Earth Qi Master to Melander, and passed away.
Before Melander held up the heavenly ruler and offered it to the incense table, the disciples from various sects of the Lingfeng Sect paid homage to Liu Li. As the successor of the Earth Qi Master, of course he had to perform the most stringent obeisance ceremony. While kowtowing, he murmured in his heart: "Master,
Don’t blame me, old man, for recruiting so many people to sacrifice for you and kowtow to wish you a long life of two hundred, no, three hundred years... Oh, isn’t that a goblin?...Bah, bah, bah, he is a god!"
The more he murmured, the more unsure he felt, and his forehead also ached. Every time he knocked his head, it was like an old man glaring and hitting his head. In fact, he had just gone to Liuzhou before going to Furong Valley to visit Xiang Yinghua a few days ago.
After meeting the master, I couldn't help but recall the scene at that time - it was in the old building in Goutan Miao Village. He was drinking and chatting with the old man, and the girl Shuiyin was sitting next to him. During the dinner, Shuiyin accidentally mentioned that he had a child.
My wish is that my hometown can have a road leading to the outside. Currently, the only way to get to and from the Goutan Miao Village is by water, which is very inconvenient. The road has not been completely repaired because the mountains in some areas are too steep, and the difficulty of the project means that
Amazing investment.
The old man suddenly stretched out his chopsticks and tapped You Fang: "Boy, did you hear clearly? Your watermark sister has this wish, and you can't bully her!"
Why is this old man talking so garbled? The implication is that he wants You Fang to help complete the watermark wish, otherwise he will bully her. Whose theory is this? You Fang wants to glare at the old man but doesn't dare. Liu Fang from Switzerland
He has never signed to inherit the Changli Fund. If the old man wants to be a philanthropist, he can also donate money. Why does he have to be allowed to be such a good person?
Although You Fang is rich now, it is impossible for him to come up with such a huge donation. If he wants to come forward to realize the watermark's wish, he has to accept the fund. Before You Fang could answer, Liu Li said: "Actually, there are some places where
There are also roads, which just need to be widened and repaired. Some road sections are not located in suitable locations and need to be rerouted and a few bridges built. I have already drawn the drawings, it is not complicated."
Shuiyin interjected: "Uncle Shuifeng, the drawings you drew were submitted to the county. People said that according to this design, the investment will increase a lot. Moreover, this road has been under construction. It is because the investment has not been implemented that it has not been completely completed.
, wouldn’t that make it even more impossible to cultivate?”
Liu Li shook his chopsticks and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I will pay for the extra investment. Oh, no, no, no, your brother You Fang will pay for it! In this case, the road can be built according to my design. It takes more than just changing the design to build the road.
It’s as simple as who is willing to donate and invest, and many things have to be settled. But don’t worry, You Fang must have this ability.”
Shuiyin opened his mouth for a long time before he came to his senses and said, "Uncle Shuifeng, it turns out you are not joking?"
You Fang completely understood what the master meant, and stood up and said: "The old man is not joking. He can not only make you happy, Sister Shuiyin, but also satisfy his old man. It can also benefit the mountains, rivers and residents in this area. How dare I do such a thing?"
What if I don’t try my best? I’ll finish it after I finish working for a while.”
Shuiyin looked at You Fang, his eyes filled with stars, full of admiration and admiration. - You Fang just recalled the look in Shuiyin's eyes at that time, and the worship ceremony finally ended.
He straightened his clothes and stood up, holding the measuring ruler in both hands and turned to face the crowd, with a look of compassion and solemnity on his face.
