Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 515: Experienced and farsighted
The bidding for the last item, the Dragon Seeking Device, was intense, and the price continued to rise until it was finally bought by old man Zhu at a high price of 3.2 billion yuan. Thus officially ended this Capital Auction session.
Tang Xiu did not participate in the bidding for the Dragon Searching Device. He could have as many low-grade magic devices as he wanted, so there was no need to spend as much money to buy them. He was even convinced that he could make such a small magical device when his cultivation was further promoted.
The appearance of the Dragon Searching Device also made him see a business opportunity. He calculated into that if such a low-level magical device could be sold for a high price of 3.2 billion, what if he fixed dozens of small magical devices and auctioned them off?
As for Li Laoshan, he squeezed Tang Xiu's shoulder and smilingly said, "Sister Tang, the auction is over, let's go! Moreover, I have no interest in attending the dinner held by the Situ Family. ”
“What Brother Li said is true. After each auction ended, the Situ Family usually held a banquet party to entertain the guests. However, there will be very few pure entrepreneurs attending such events. Those who remained present were all codgers of the Occult Sect. ”
The eccentric people of the Invisibility Sect?
Tang Xiu's expression moved as he suddenly said, "Two Old Brothers, I just bought two items here, and almost spent all my money. Since they're going to treat us tonight, it helps me save a little money! How about I borrow this opportunity to buy you dinner? Of course, I also brought the God of Nectar; they were in the trunk of my car. There are two boxes there, and we will drink one box tonight, while Brother Wang can bring the other back home. ”
Wang Daoyuan's appearance flickered as he smiled and said, “God Nectar is the most precious gift one can receive right now. Looks like I really made a big profit today. Thank you very much, Brother Tang. Well then, let's keep attending the banquet tonight! ”
"Since you guys want to stay here, it doesn't matter to me either" Li Laoshan shrugged and said with a smile. “After all, Brother Wang, although we had some conflicts before, it did not affect us much, and there were no losses as well. Without exchanging anything, it seems like we can't get to know each other very well, right? So, we're gonna have a drink tonight. ”
"Good . I'll accompany you, "laughing Wang Daoyuan out loud.
A small boat passed through a narrow channel between the rivers. It was Ouyang Lulu in her crimson outfit. He stood in the bow with a mile hanging on his face. After her boat approached Tang Xiu's boat, she stepped on a bow and jumped straight to Tang Xiu's side.
“No need to question Ouyang Lulu's vision. If it is necessary to describe it in a word, there is only one right word for it: Great! Honey, I just realized that you are someone who has extraordinary power, because your shadow has been behind all sorts of big events, ” said Ouyang Lulu, all of them smiling, saying, while skillfully grasping Tang Xiu's arm.
"Can't you brag about yourself?" Tang Xiu shook his head and chuckled. "Be serious and tell me something, okay? How did you end up in Beijing at this time? Being the host and auctioneer for the auction organized by the Situ Family, as well. ”
“That means Ouyang Lulu has extraordinary abilities, with her supernatural powers and unlimited magical powers, hence gaining fame across the country. I have to be known by everyone around the world. Therefore, the wise and discreet leader of the Situ Family asked me to host and auctioneer, ” said Ouyang Lulu happily.
"Do you want me to ignore you if you keep acting so narcissistic?" Ranted Tang Xiu's.
"DON'T!" Ouyang Lulu hurriedly waved her hand and said with a gentle smile. “Well, you really have no sense of humor at all. After all, the Head of the Situ Family, Situ Boyang, was my mother's adoptive father, so he could be considered as my grandfather as well. In addition, my Paradise Manor is already open for business in Shanghai, so I also do not have to worry about handling management, therefore the reason I came to Beijing. ”
Tang Xiu understood quickly and asked with a smile, "Then, when are you going back to Shanghai?"
“I'll be back early tomorrow! That's right, when will you be back too? I remember school starts tomorrow, right? ”
“Well, I'll treat you to dinner by borrowing someone else's party because I'll get on your plane back to Shanghai. That wouldn't be a problem for you, would it? ”Tang Xiu said with a smile.
After glancing at Li Laoshan, Wang Daoyuan, and Su Yaning, Ouyang Lulu nodded and said, “No problem at all! But you have to wait a minute. I have to tell my grandfather first, and only then can we leave. ”
"Where are you going?" Ask Tang Xiu.
"Huh? Aren't we going to dinner or something? "Ask Ouyang Lulu back.
"About that, we stayed here and attended the Situ Family banquet party," Tang Xiu said with a laugh.
Ouyang Lulu stared blankly, before she immediately said with a joyful expression, “That would be amazing! I'll introduce our grandfather to you later. He already knows you, and is full of compliments about you! "
Tang Xiu was between laughter and tears after listening to her, “Say, Lulu, can't you always say us, us, or our words? That's your grandfather, but I don't have anything to do with him. ”
"All the same, all the same!" Ouyang Lulu waved her hand with a colorful smile on her face. He immediately urged the crew to paddle to the beach. He even boldly wrapped his hands around Tang Xiu's waist without the slightest bit of embarrassment, got on his car and rushed to the hotel that the Situ Family had prepared for the evening banquet.
At an international hotel in Beijing.
A banquet party hosted by Situ Family was held in the dance hall on the 28th floor. Many guests attending the auction had arrived. The entire hall had been arranged wonderfully, as crystal lights illuminated every corner of the hall with soft lights. Wine and appetizers were already served at the dining table by the pretty waiter. And what surprised the guests the most was the two bottles of the God of Nectar placed on each dining table.
Inside the deluxe room next to the ballroom, Situ Boyang quietly read the information. He was past his prime, in his 60s, yet still full of vigor. In front of him were two people, a middle-aged man and a woman, who were calmly standing still with smiles on their faces.
“Lulu is performing well, Dad. His eloquent tongue really was a gift worth showcasing. Therefore, many of the items auctioned at the auction held by our Situ Family were sold at very high prices, much higher than our expectations, he said, ”Situ Chao handed the information over to Situ Boyang and reported it with a smile.
With a satisfied look, Situ Boyang nodded and said, “Truly great. That's right, you all came back here, but where did that kid, Lulu, go? ”
"Ah, Lulu saw her lover and was eager to see him, so she went straight to him right after the auction ended," Situ Chao replied with a forced smile.
"Tang Xiu?" Situ Boyang's expression moved. "Did Young heavenly Doctor Tang Xiu also participate in the auction?"
"Yes nih . He bought two items with a total value of 3. 1 billion yuan, ” Situ Chao said with a nod.
"Two items? Don't tell me it's the first auction item — Emperor Qin's Imperial Jade Seal and Nine Phoenix Hairpin? Adding these two items was exactly 3. 1 billion yuan! "Situ Boyang said, surprised.
"That's right, he bought exactly those two items," Situ Chao said with a smile.
Situ Boyang nodded and smilingly said, “By the way, I met your Uncle Ouyang on Jingmen Island a few days ago. And I heard many things about Tang Xiu from her. He's a very remarkable man. ”
“He is indeed very amazing. Especially the company he founded, Magnificent Tang Corporation. Judging from the trend of its development ..it is simply enviable and interesting. Moreover, he was even a doctor who worked miracles; it was just beyond my expectations. The girl, Lulu, had always kept her eyes high, and if this Tang Xiu wasn't extraordinary enough, I don't think it was easy to impress her like this. ”
Situ Boyang nodded, “Later, when you make contact with Tang Xiu, get along well and get closer to him if he is really good. ”
"But father, his identity is ..." Situ Chao hesitated.
"I know that she is from the Tang Family, which means her identity is very sensitive. But since our family also had to survive in Beijing, it was inevitable that we should be closer to some families. The Tang family may have declined in recent years, but the slender camel is still larger than a horse. As soon as an outstanding junior appears among the descendants of the Tang Family, I am sure that it is impossible for them to bounce back to the past. Compared to the Tang Family, the Yao Family was simply too powerful. So, even though we tried to get closer to them, I was afraid it was .. Well, forget it. Just do what I say! "
For a moment, Situ Chao fell silent before he slowly said, "Dad, are you planning to get involved with the political struggle with all the domestic forces in the country?"
"No, we won't be involved in it," Situ Boyang said lightly.
"Then, what you meant earlier was ..." chasing Situ Chao, hesitating.
“Ouyang Lulu is my grandson. The young man he liked and the Ouyang Family themselves agreed to it. So, why should we reject it just to avoid suspicion from others? Not to mention that Tang Xiu still had another identity as the heavenly Physician. If we deliberately keep our distance, then we're the ones who have a problem here. Understand?"
As a smart person himself, Situ Chao could instantly understand what his father meant. Although the Situ Family wanted to get closer to the Tang Family, it was very understandable and justified. After all, there was a connection between Ouyang Lulu and Tang Xiu, as well as Tang Xiu's other identity as the heavenly Physician. Even if getting closer to him meant that many parties would be annoyed with them, what was the problem with that?
After thinking about it, Situ Chao nodded and said, “I understand what to do, Father. ”
In the multipurpose room …
After Tang Xiu, Li Laoshan, Wang Daoyuan, and Ouyang Lulu arrived, they immediately attracted the attention of many people, who came to greet them. Although Li Laoshan and Wang Daoyuan were not ordinary people, everyone there was an extraordinary status. They came to greet them especially because of Tang Xiu.
Despite the fact that many of them had learned that Tang Xiu was a descendant of the Beijing Tang Family, what people paid more attention to was Tang Xiu's identity as the heavenly Physician. After all, when a person is alive, who can guarantee that he will always be healthy? Therefore, getting acquainted with the heavenly Physician brings only benefits and no harm.
