A considerable number of porcelain pieces were auctioned off in succession.
Most of the porcelain pieces that followed were not as exquisite or beautiful as those in Biluo Xiaozhu, nor were they as valuable for collection. Master Shen Wu did not find any that appealed to him.
As for famous paintings, most of them are from the Western European Renaissance period, while Shen Beian prefers ancient paintings from the Empire.
Shen Beian was just watching the show; the prices that were auctioned off were all quite high, but the third-generation cell repair device topped the list.
The full price of so many famous porcelains, paintings, and sculptures at auction couldn't even match that cell repair device!
Upon reflection, it is indeed the case.
That's something that can save your life.
Arnor had just acquired a painting he liked, and the two young men were led to Arnor's private room.
"Uncle Jones, may you be well?" Both bowed and extended their hands in greeting.
Wei Shengxu and Han Lianjun, who had been running rampant in the capital, were now as docile as little rabbits in front of Anor.
The two of them had a really tough time coming to Fuyun Island from the capital.
In Beijing, the two could do whatever they wanted. There were BDSM venues in Beijing, and they would occasionally meet up to go and have fun.
There are also some hidden clubs that keep a number of people in their own villas or courtyards.
Once you get tired of this one, there are plenty of people bringing in new ones.
But on Fuyun Island, there's nowhere to play, and not even anyone to vent to!
Most of them were people they couldn't afford to offend, and the rest were either test subjects or half-test subjects.
They don't have the right to make a move.
Moreover, they weren't here on any mission, and everyone else genuinely treated them as ordinary assistants.
The two could be described as living in dire straits.
“You two gentlemen are being treated unfairly in this small place.” Arnor felt a touch of irony when he saw them like this, but he wasn’t surprised.
These two look like seasoned family heirs, but compared to some others, they are far inferior.
Those people had all spent a considerable amount of time in the Empire's military, even the physically weak Wei Shengxi had spent some time there.
Who doesn't know how strict the Empire's military is?
Compared to them, these two are simply flowers grown in a greenhouse.
“Uncle Jones is too kind. Xu and Lian Jun have both learned a lot here.” Wei Shengxu said repeatedly. He understood when he arrived that if he had no use here, he would definitely be thrown out to take the bullet.
Furthermore, Fu Muxin now wants to sue him domestically.
To be honest, Wei Shengxu still had some feelings for Fu Muxin. After all, it would be a lie to say that he wasn't proud that a senior colonel in the Empire's military had married him.
The pleasure of having a high-ranking colonel of the Imperial Army kneeling beneath him was unparalleled.
Moreover, Wei Shengxu liked Fu Muxin's personality and other aspects very much, making her a suitable wife.
Unfortunately, the two had different stances, and Fu Muxin was a soldier.
Wei Shengxu admitted that he couldn't beat Fu Muxin and that he was able to imprison her entirely through drugs.
Han Lianjun echoed, "Yes, Uncle Jones, under Young Master Qiao's arrangement, Zixu and I have learned a lot."
"I wonder what brings Uncle Jones to ask Zixu and me this time?"
Han Lianjun knew Qiao Yifan. He used to be a supervisor at the Shouwu Research Institute, but was dismissed for some unknown reason. He then came to Fuyun Island through Luo Yilin's connections.
In fact, Luo Yilin and Qiao Yifan are half-brothers, sharing the same mother but different fathers, yet they are separated by almost a generation.
Han Lianjun knew all this entirely because Luo Yilin was Wei Shengxu's stepfather.
Therefore, in terms of their relationship, Wei Shengxu should address Qiao Yifan as "Uncle".
“You’ll get used to it.” Arnor nodded. Qiao Yifan’s abilities were indeed quite good. He was an outstanding graduate of Peking University and was able to serve as a supervisor in a place like the Shouwu Research Institute. If it weren’t for Luo Yilin back then, he would probably still be at the Shouwu Research Institute now.
Arno still doesn't understand why Luo Yilin would bring Qiao Yifan, who originally had nothing to do with them, into this.
For power?
For money?
These Polygonum multiflorum research institutes can all be given to Qiao Yifan.
Furthermore, the He Shou Wu Research Institute has cooperation with the imperial government, is backed by the Zi Ya family, and also has the powerful Gu family as a strong backer.
Although the eldest son of the capital city and Hua Yueli are close friends, the Gu family remains neutral.
Regardless of who comes to power in the future, it will not affect the Gu family, nor the Ziya family or the Shouwu Research Institute.
Moreover, compared to the medical alliance on Fuyun Island, the He Shou Wu Research Institute is clearly safer.
It also aligns better with Qiao Yifan's previous values.
When Qiao Yifan first arrived at Fuyun Island, he experienced various difficulties adapting to the new environment and water.
Isn't it said that half-sisters from the same mother have a better relationship than half-sisters from the same father?
Although Arnor seemed to have a rather bad attitude towards Qingran, there was no doubt that he respected Qingran as his older brother.
Qingran was also very friendly and caring towards Arnor.
Although there are conflicts of interest between the two, it is undeniable that they have a brotherly bond.
However, in Arnor's view, Luo Yilin's brotherly affection for Qiao Yifan was almost non-existent.
Having been nearly twenty years older, the elder brother should have taken on the responsibility of being a father figure and offered advice and suggestions for his younger brother's life planning.
But this older brother pushed his younger brother from a comfortable, safe zone into a gray area.
“You’ve been on Fuyun Island for so long, you must be getting a little bored.” Arnor poured himself a cup of tea and didn’t say anything to ask the two to sit down. “There aren’t many entertainment options on Fuyun Island, I’m sorry to have troubled you two young masters.”
Although Fuyun Island is technologically advanced, its only entertainment venue is the Never-Sleeping City built by Wushang Loulan.
The two of them have been busy ever since they arrived, so they haven't been to the City That Never Sleeps.
There was no one for them to vent their frustrations on.
Both Wei Shengxu and Han Lianjun had taken SG series drugs, so their libido was naturally quite high.
Neither of them felt embarrassed anymore; they were both young men in their twenties, and it was perfectly normal for them to have high libido.
There's no one here, but we have tools, though they're not as comfortable as people.
“Uncle Jones, it’s nothing serious.” Wei Shengxu didn’t understand what Arnor meant either, so he could only deal with it like this for now.
He and Han Lianjun shared the same account, played similar games, and had similar fighting abilities. Neither could outmaneuver the other, making it quite difficult for the other to gain the upper hand.
"Have a seat," Arnor chuckled, setting down his teacup. "If you see anything you like at the auction later, feel free to bid on it yourself. I'll give you a few days off so you can get some rest."
The world has never lacked villains with similar sexual interests to Wei Shengxu and Han Lianjun. As the world's largest den of iniquity, how could Fuyun Island not satisfy them?
