If it were before, he might still worry about Mu Hanyan catching him with evidence, or he might firmly deny it, but after being frightened by Mu Hanyan's words, he was half scared out of his wits, so he didn't care about the evidence at all. When he heard these words, it was like he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
He was just a little curious. The auction house had only been open for a short time and didn't have any decent goods. How could Mu Hanyan be interested in them?
Oh, right, I opened this auction house in a secretive way, trying to be as low-key as possible. I guess Mu Hanyan just heard some rumors and didn't know the details at all, so she overestimated the strength of the auction house and used this as a condition. Mu Nan thought about it and could only come up with this answer.
His heart also began to stir. "Isn't it just a matter of looking at a bunch of junk? If you like it, I can buy it all for you. It's not worth much anyway."
This way, the gambling debt of ten thousand taels of silver was settled. If he had known this would happen, he would not have been afraid at all. He would have woken up laughing in his sleep.
"You don't need to care how I know this. Just tell me whether it's okay or not. If it is, we'll go right away." Mu Hanyan certainly wouldn't tell Mu Nan that many years later, his auction house would become one of the largest chambers of commerce in Anyun Country. She just asked briefly.
I was so frightened that I almost pulled my hair out, but it turned out to be so easy to deal with. Mu Nan was so excited that he couldn't speak.
"Is it possible or not? If yes, just say something." Seeing that this guy was half-dead as if his father had died, and then his face was full of light as if he had been injected with chicken blood, but he just couldn't fart for a long time, Mu Hanyan urged him impatiently.
"Squeak..." Mu Nan held his breath and let out a long squeak.
Behind him, Zirong and Huayue staggered at the same time. Only the eldest playboy Mu could scare the clever and lively sixth son of the Mu family into this state.
Huayue didn’t have much feeling, but Zirong thought more.
He had been in the Mu Mansion for some time, but he had never heard of Mu Nan opening an auction house. However, after thinking about it, he realized that the capital of this auction house might be of unknown origin.
If Mu Hanyan had brought up the matter the moment she arrived, Mu Nan, fearing exposure, would have likely evaded the issue. After all, embezzling family property was no small matter, and the consequences of getting it out wouldn't be any less severe than the ten thousand taels of gambling debt. However, Mu Hanyan remained impassive from the start, her smile concealing a dagger as she pressed on, tormenting his pitiful heart and gradually breaking down his defenses.
Then, when she brought up the idea of selling it at auction, Mu Nan, who was already so worried that he almost slit his own throat with a knife, had no room to refuse. He must have been secretly feeling relieved in his heart.
What a trick, what a scheme! So… so despicable. Zirong looked fascinated, and the already not-so-bright person had unknowingly become even more sinister. Years later, Mu Hanyan complained that the demon sword was inherently treacherous and cunning. The demon sword felt even more wronged, saying that it was Young Master Mu's words and deeds that taught him. His so-called cunning and treacherous behavior was nothing compared to Mu Hanyan's. Humph!
Mu Nan was afraid that Mu Hanyan would change her mind, so he led them out.
Just as I reached the door, Mu Cheng also came from the other direction.
When he saw Mu Hanyan, Mu Cheng's face changed slightly. He subconsciously wanted to hide, but after thinking about it, he stopped and forced a smile. Although it was very forced, it was still a smile.
