Chapter 27

"Tsk"

Wei Luobai held his face with one hand, watching the young man in front of him sorting the banknotes in his hand. Perhaps he felt ignored, he made some movements from time to time, as if trying to attract the other party's attention.

Seeing that the other party still ignored him, Wei Luobai became even more aggressive in his actions.

Seeing Wei Luobai getting closer and closer, Yun Wuque, who had put all the banknotes away, closed the wooden box in his hand, then raised his eyes to look at the sneaky dog ​​beside him.

"What's the matter?" Yun Wuque asked softly. Since his house was quite close to the Zhenguo General's Mansion, Wei Luobai could often be seen in this house.

Wei Luobai smiled brightly, he sat back in his seat and said half-jokingly: "With so many banknotes, aren't you afraid of me?"

Yun Wuque pulled the corner of his mouth, his blue eyes were as clear as glass, "The wooden box is poisonous, anyone who touches it will not be able to leave this house."

Wei Luobai immediately widened his eyes and looked at the clear eyes in front of him, as if judging the truthfulness of Yun Wuque's words.

After his eyes began to ache, Wei Luobai couldn't help but blink. At the same time, he seemed to understand that what the other party said was true. After thinking about touching the wooden box to let the other party sort himself out, Wei Luobai's first reaction was not fear, but a strange sense of guilt.

Shen Yuqing: I know this! This is a typical sign of a dog feeling guilty after destroying the house!

Yun Wuque, who had taken in all of Wei Luobai's little movements, spoke again, "I was just kidding you."

Wei Luobai:.......

After the other party admitted that it was fake, Wei Luobai felt it was more real. He inexplicably felt that the other party was tempting him to touch the wooden box.

It’s a typical trap, and the dog won’t be fooled. The dog will definitely not let anyone find evidence of its house destruction.

It's strange to say, Yun Wuque obviously doesn't look like he's short of money, but every time he would roll up the banknotes with a serious face and put them neatly in the wooden box, as if he valued these banknotes very much. Wei Luobai, feeling a little guilty and curious, still asked what was in his mind.

"I have made a promise with someone that I will raise him when I grow up."

"ah?"

No matter how hard Wei Luobai thought, he couldn't figure out why the other party was like this.

Yun Wuque seemed to not understand why Wei Luobai spoke so loudly. He continued, "Don't you Beiyou people value gratitude the most? He saved me and fed me when I was young. Naturally, I will raise him when he grows up."

Wei Luobai was unable to refute for a moment. This agreement was probably a joke made by that person to please Yun Wuque, but it was obvious that Yun Wuque took it seriously.

However, despite this, Wei Luobai still couldn't help asking, "Isn't this much silver enough for you to support yourself?"

Yun Wuque thought about the gold-embroidered clothes of the man in his memory and said seriously, "Not enough."

Shen Yuqing, who has opened many secondary accounts: Hehe

Wei Luobai choked up immediately. He was indeed a rich man, but he soon discovered the key point. "So you came to Shengling City to make money?!"

Yun Wuque nodded frankly, "Most of the powerful and wealthy businessmen are in Shengling City."

Wei Luobai suddenly became unhappy: "When you have saved enough money, you will leave Shengling City."

This is the person he has been most interested in recently. When he thought that the other party could leave at any time, Wei Luobai felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart. In fact, they did not spend too much time together, but perhaps the people in this Holy Tomb City were too hypocritical, so he was reluctant to let him leave.

Yun Wuque, who had been handling the situation with ease, showed a rare hesitation. There was a hint of disappointment and grievance in his tone: "I still don't know where he is."

Looking at the slightly swaying pearl earrings, Wei Luobai seemed to see his owner's distressed expression and he almost laughed out loud.

This was definitely not a schadenfreude. Wei Luobai, eyes shining, tried hard to suppress his smile.

"Wanbaotang will hold an auction in the ghost market in a few days. Maybe your pearl can be sold at a better price there." Wei Luobai, who was afraid that he would lose his life if he continued laughing, immediately began to change the subject.

Yun Wuque did not sell too many pearls. Firstly, pearls were expensive, and secondly, things were valuable because they were rare. Most of the pearls he sold were to buyers recommended by Wei Luobai. If he wanted to make more money from pearls, perhaps participating in an auction would be a good choice.

Yun Wuque stood up and took out a palm-sized wooden box from the cabinet beside him. He put the wooden box on the table and then opened it gently.

After the wooden box was opened, a pearl shining with golden light appeared in Wei Luobai's eyes, like stars in the sky.

This golden pearl is not only eye-catching in color, but also larger in size than the round and lustrous white pearls that Yun Wuque took out.

"What do you think of this one?"

Wei Luobai looked at Yun Wuque with burning eyes, "Why don't we go and deliver the auction items now?"

He was sure that this golden pearl would fetch a high price.

The name of the ghost market may make people feel frightened, but simply speaking it is also a kind of morning market. The opening time is generally "midnight and the rooster crows". Because this time is very "hellish", it has the name of the ghost market. Beiyou does not have particularly strict requirements for the curfew, so the development of the ghost market is very smooth. Even some rare treasures that cannot be bought normally may be found in the ghost market. Therefore, if an auction is held in the ghost market, it will definitely attract countless people to participate.

However, with the sun now high in the sky, all kinds of people may have to consider the issue of sun protection when going out, so Yun Wuque only needs to deliver the auctioned items to Wanbaotang's headquarters.

Before Yun Wuque reached the gate of Wanbaotang, he had already noticed the golden plaque hanging in Wanbaotang. This alone showed that Wanbaotang was financially strong.

There were two men standing on the left and right of the door. They looked similar and were probably brothers. From their steady breathing, one could tell that they were both good at martial arts.

Not long after Wei Luobai entered Wanbao Hall, a chubby man quickly came over to greet him. He smiled and said, "I was wondering why the magpie was calling when I went out today! It turns out that you are coming, Young Master Wei!"

"Hey! Manager Xu looks good. I guess there's some good news recently." Wei Luobai seemed to be familiar with Manager Xu, and his tone was a little more teasing.

"Hahahaha, isn't it you who are here to celebrate this happy event?" Xu Chang said with a smile. He was a little fat, and his smile was particularly kind, making him look like a blessed man.

After a few simple polite remarks, Wei Luobai introduced Yun Wuque: "This is Manager Xu from Wanbao Hall."

Yun Wuque nodded slightly: "Manager Xu."

Xu Chang said with a smile: "I guess this must be Master Yun. I have heard of him for a long time."

Yun Wuque was not surprised that the other party knew him. The pair of blue eyes alone were very recognizable.

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. It is difficult for most people to feel disgusted with Manager Xu, who always smiles no matter what he does.

"Two gentlemen, please follow me upstairs." Xu Chang seemed to know the purpose of the two men's visit. There were too many people on the first floor and it was not suitable to discuss private matters.

Yun Wuque and Wei Luobai followed Xu Chang to the private room on the second floor. Everyone present was smart, so there were fewer empty and flattering words.

"I have something and would like to ask Wanbao Pavilion to auction it on my behalf." Yun Wuque went straight to the point.

"Okay, okay. I wonder what Mr. Yun wants to auction?" Xu Chang could more or less guess that the other party wanted to auction the pearl, but on the surface he still asked according to the procedure.

"Manager Xu, please take a look." Yun Wuque said as he took out the wooden box.

The wooden box was a little small and didn't look like it could hold many pearls. However, considering the size of the pearls, Xu Chang didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Pearls of this size were extremely valuable, and the other party had sold a few of them not long ago. It would be great if he could still have this wooden box.

Xu Chang was already prepared to welcome Mingzhu, but after seeing the golden pearl, he was stunned at first, and the smile on his face almost overflowed.

This pearl is truly exquisite in both color and size, especially the golden color, which symbolizes many things. Even people who don’t love pearls would find it hard to look away.

"Don't worry, Master Yun. This pearl will be sold at a price that satisfies you at the auction in a few days."

The commission charged by Wanbaotang was not that much. As for whether they intended to make friends or just gave Wei Luobai face, it essentially did not have much impact on Yun Wuque.

Xu Chang thought for a moment and continued, "Does Master Yun have any other pearls? This golden pearl will surely attract countless people to fight for it, and the other pearls can also be sold for a good price."

Yun Wuque raised his lips slightly, "I will send it to you tomorrow."

Wei Luobai, who was drinking tea nearby, seemed to see two foxes, one big and one small.

Until Yun Wuque and the other person walked out of the door, the smile on Xu Chang's face never faded. It was obvious that Wan Baotang was very satisfied with this conversation.

"You're not going home?"

After coming out of Wanbao Hall, Yun Wuque looked at Wei Luobai who seemed to want to go home with him and asked appropriate questions.

"Wow! Wuque, you are so cold and heartless!" Wei Luobai said while covering his chest in an exaggerated manner, looking like he was deeply hurt by Yun Wuque.

Yun Wuque was a little confused. He looked at Wei Luobai who was making trouble beside him. Although he could not understand the other party's train of thought, it did not prevent him from looking at him as if he was a fool.

Fortunately, when they were approaching the house, Wei Luobai, who had been chattering non-stop, took the initiative to shut his mouth.

Looking at the carriage belonging to his own mother not far away, Wei Luobai took a quick step, but unfortunately he was caught up by two servants not long after.

Feeling Wei Luobai's pleading gaze, Yun Wuque greeted Madam Xia with a smile, then turned around and walked into the house without hesitation.

Wei Luobai: This time I am really heartbroken! You are so ruthless! So cold!

Shen Yuqing nodded and commented: It is indeed very cold.

Yun Wuque: Stare!

Shen Yuqing, who is usually schizophrenic, feels good. After reading comics for a long time, he looks out the window to relax his eyes. The sun has been very strong these days. Worried that he will get tanned, Shen Yuqing has to give up the idea of ​​basking in the sun in the courtyard.

But if it is Shuang Bei, he should not be afraid of the heat, Shen Yuqing's thoughts were a little scattered. That person wore fox fur in the summer, so it should feel very cool to hug him. Speaking of which, there is also a patient with cold poison in his inn, and it seems that he is not afraid of heat either. Unfortunately, Shen Yuqing cannot do too many experiments.

Frosty North with cool summers and cold winters:......
