Chapter 20: Yao Qinghan's Invitation

() Shangguan Fenghua came to Shangguan Yun today because he broke through the bottleneck and reached the level of a true cultivator. So he wanted to ask Shangguan Yun to go out to have a meal together to celebrate. He would not do that at home.

It was a grand celebration, so the two brothers could only be happy about it.

The two happily arrived at an average-sized restaurant in the city center and found a seat with windows facing the street. Shangguan Yun looked at the busy streets and felt very emotional. It had been a long time since he felt the prosperity of the ordinary world, and now

The life of the past has made the past days farther and farther away from me. The only thing that remains unchanged is that I still work hard and always bear in mind the belief that I can do better.

The people in the Shangguan family gave Shangguan Yun a sense of belonging, a feeling that he wanted to keep forever. There was no pressure that existed all the time, but without losing his passion. However, Shangguan Yun still understood one thing, that is, he

Still under the protection of the Shangguan family, I did not let myself face the pressure faced by the family. This was because I was too young and not strong enough. Therefore, it is okay to live an ordinary life, but I cannot do nothing. A tiger father has no dog son, and aristocratic family

There is no mediocre person.

Shangguan Fenghua was very happy. He told Shangguan Yun a lot. Because of this breakthrough in cultivation, his strength was directly comparable to that of his elder brother Shangguan Chenyi, so he told Shangguan Yun one by one about his plans for the future. Shangguan Yun

He expressed support.

This meal was originally meant to celebrate Shangguan Fenghua's improvement in strength, but in the end it turned into a conversation between the two young people expressing their dreams.

After the meal, the two brothers walked on the road without talking. They were both immersed in thinking and enjoying the passion brought by their own blood.

The streets of the capital were extremely prosperous, with a variety of shops that were dazzling to see, and the items in the shops were dazzling. Shangguan Yun was also happy to enjoy the scenery of the city.

Walking to a very luxuriously decorated store, Shangguan Yun stopped and looked at the logo under the store name, which was the logo of the Xingtong Chamber of Commerce. It turned out to be the store of Yao Qinghan's family. No wonder it looked so grand just from the outside.

This building has four or five floors. Shangguan Yun stood at the door and observed carefully, marveling at the exquisite carvings on the outside of the building. It was full of artistic flavor no matter from which corner it was viewed. In some places, the decorations even used

It's such a big deal to buy rare metals! Even Shangguan's family can't find a store that can compare with it.

Shangguan Fenghua did not rush Shangguan Yun and kept waiting for him. After reading, Shangguan Yun turned around and smiled at Shangguan Fenghua. Shangguan Fenghua shrugged, spread his hands, and said lightly:

"I can't help it, I have plenty of money."

Shangguan Yun nodded, thinking: Haha, I have a rich brother.

So without any further pause, Shangguan Yun signaled to Shangguan Fenghua that he could leave. But just as the two of them moved, a clear and girlish voice sounded above their heads.

"Xiao Yunyun, Xiao Yunyun, don't go, I'm here." The voice spread far away, attracting curious eyes from passers-by.

Shangguan Yun and Shangguan Fenghua both trembled uncomfortably. Facing the strange looks from passers-by, Shangguan Yun raised his head with difficulty and saw a 'girl' on the third floor of the shop leaning out half of her body.

Waved vigorously at him.

It turned out that Yao Qinghan was upstairs, and Shangguan Yun stood at the door of the store and watched for a long time. It was difficult not to be discovered by him.

"What are you doing? Xiao Yunyun, you've come to someone else's territory and you haven't even come to see your brother." Yao Qinghan's clear voice came loudly again, with a hint of urging in his tone, as if he wanted Shangguan Yun to come up.

.

Shangguan Yun turned his head to Shangguan Fenghua helplessly, not knowing what to do.

Shangguan Fenghua covered his face, as if he wanted to avoid the eyes of passers-by. Then he let go of his hands, and then said helplessly: "Who told you to look at it for so long? Hey, forget it, you go up, I'll go back first."

Home."

"What? Aren't you going?" Shangguan Yun pulled Shangguan Fenghua, as if he didn't dare to face something alone.

Shangguan Fenghua patted Shangguan Yun's shoulder and showed a strange look, "I can't stand him. I'm sorry, I'll take a step first." Then he turned around and left quickly. Shangguan Yun waved his hand forward, and the result was

Got it empty.

Shaking his head, Shangguan Yun smiled bitterly. Since Yao Qinghan called him by name, he had no choice but to bite the bullet.

Walking into the store, the shock inside was even stronger than outside. It was really luxurious to the extreme. However, Shangguan Yun was not someone who had never seen the world. He just looked at it with appreciation and walked towards the stairs.

.

As soon as they reached the second floor, Yao Qinghan greeted him. It turned out that he couldn't wait and ran down from the third floor. When he saw Shangguan Yun, Yao Qinghan immediately rushed up and gave him a big bear hug. Shangguan Yun stood there blankly.

Then, he didn't dodge or hug back, he just let Yao Qinghan hold him like a piece of wood.

It felt so much like being hugged by a woman, that soft body, that faint fragrance, that 'beautiful' face... Shangguan Yun really couldn't feel what made Yao Qinghan a man.

However, he is indeed a man, and he and Shangguan Yun are good brothers...

Shangguan Yun pushed Yao Qinghan away with a stiff expression, and then said in a very low voice: "Sister Han, you... you are too excited." Then he quickly put his hands behind his back to cover up his trembling palms.

"Xiao Yunyun, you are serious. I haven't seen you for a long time. Why do you feel so restrained when I meet you?" Yao Qinghan seemed to feel something. He put his arms around Shangguan Yun's neck and looked at Shangguan Yun up and down with his eyes.

, as if trying to find something wrong.

Shangguan Yun didn't dare to look at him, so he had no choice but to look away and change the subject: "How long has it been? It's only been more than half a month."

Yao Qinghan pouted and said, "Is half a month not too long? Really, don't you miss me?" While talking, he shook Shangguan Yun's arm with both hands, looking cute and cute.

A stunning beauty is taking off her clothes and acting coquettishly.

When Shangguan Yun saw this scene, his legs suddenly softened and he staggered, almost falling off the ground.

"Hehehe..." Yao Qinghan covered his mouth and chuckled, but he immediately stopped talking and even restrained his evil actions. He knew that if he went too far, even the best brother would not be able to bear it.

Fortunately, Shangguan Yun had a strong tolerance in his heart, and he soon regained his composure. While marveling at how evil Yao Qinghan was, his immune system also improved a lot.

"Xiaoyun, you came just in time today. Let's go, I'll take you to see a few things for fun." Yao Qinghan invited Shangguan Yun. At this moment, he didn't move any more, and his tone of voice became normal.

Quite a few.

"What is it? This store is so luxurious, and the things shown to me should not be too shabby." Shangguan Yun became a little interested. The quality of things that could be invited by a rich man like Yao Qinghan should not be too shabby.

Low.

Yao Qinghan smiled at Shangguan Yun: "These are newly arrived goods. I don't know the value. Anyway, they were purchased at high prices." After saying that, he walked in front to lead the way for Shangguan Yun.

"Your store has such a big show. What are you selling? I didn't see any products." Shangguan Yun looked around as he went upstairs.

Yao Qinghan did not look back, but explained loudly: "This store is a property owned by the auction house run by my family. Its usual function is to attract customers, and sometimes it also sells rare items purchased by our own chamber of commerce. After all, auctions cannot be held often.

?, so in order to ensure quality, some things that are not very valuable will be sold at this price."

Shangguan Yun nodded clearly. When there are no customers entrusting the auction with valuable items, the auction cannot be held casually. This is to ensure the attraction. Otherwise, if ordinary items are often auctioned, there will be more people in the future.

How many people come to participate in this auction? Therefore, among the items purchased in the store, some items that are not enough to be put on the auction table can only be sold here.

"A batch of new goods arrived today, so I rushed over to take a look. I took it away to see if I could find anything useful. I didn't have to pay for it anyway, haha." Yao Qinghan smiled like a prodigal, Shangguan

Yun was speechless for a while, this young master of the Chamber of Commerce was a great person to be.

After Shangguan Yun observed all the way, Shangguan Yun remembered the functions of each floor of this building. The first floor seemed to be for welcoming and registering customers, while the second and third floors were for entertaining guests, and those with higher status were required.

It is a rule that you can only go to the third floor, and it is also to satisfy the customer's vanity.

Shangguan Yun, led by Yao Qinghan, naturally reached the fourth floor unimpeded.

There were only a few people in waiter costumes at the stairwells of the first few floors, serving guests in need. But on the fourth floor, what appeared in front of Shangguan Yun was a green wooden door, with four Kong Wu at the door.

They are guarded by powerful guards, and judging from the looks of them, they are all cultivators, and their cultivation levels should be high.

At this time, Yao Qinghan stopped. When Shangguan Yun came to him and stood side by side with him, he waved to the guards to ask them to get out of the way.

The guards did not make a sound, and moved quickly and uniformly to both sides, and another person opened the door for Yao Qinghan.

Yao Qinghan made an invitation gesture and walked in together with Shangguan Yun.

Inside the door was not a closed secret room as Shangguan Yun thought, but a hall that was ventilated on three sides. There was even a balcony that stretched out quite a bit on the left, where you could still get some sun.

At this time, there are already more than a dozen customers in the hall selecting products. The products in the hall are scattered on the tables. There is no counter or anything to fix them, and there is no one to look after them. Customers can pick up the products at will and study them.

Of course, this is on the premise of not causing any damage.

No wonder the passenger flow must be strictly controlled, so that many people who fish in troubled waters can be eliminated, and customers who are researching products will not be disturbed. Only people with a certain status can be allowed to reach this floor.

Yao Qinghan walked around the hall, but did not find the newly arrived goods. So he stopped a person who looked like a steward and asked: "Where is the newly arrived batch of goods? Why didn't I see it?"

When the steward saw that it was Yao Qinghan, he did not dare to neglect, and quickly explained: "Second Young Master, the newly arrived batch of goods has not been appraised yet, so it will take a while before they can be picked up for pricing."

"Oh." Yao Qinghan also nodded with understanding. After all, the Xingtong Chamber of Commerce has to appraise the newly arrived goods themselves, keep the items they think have auction value, and mark the prices for other items they think are of average value before they can take them.

When you come out to sell, you don't want to miss out on good things.

"Then let's take a look first." Yao Qinghan said apologetically to Shangguan Yun, who said it didn't matter and he wasn't in a hurry.

So the two of them started to look at the product with themselves as the center.

For Yao Qinghan, as long as the workmanship is exquisite, he will pick it up and look at it twice. After a while, he has selected two items. Shangguan Yun can see at a glance that these are just ordinary handicrafts, with the most materials.

It is relatively rare, the workmanship is exquisite, it has only artistic appreciation value, and it is a good collection.

Seeing the confused look from Shangguan Yun, Yao Qinghan danced with excitement, "I didn't notice before that there is such a beautiful thing."

"What do you want these two to do? These are foreign handicrafts. You don't even have any information, and you can't study them." Shangguan Yun pointed out the key point.

"It looks good. It can be used as decoration." Yao Qinghan looked at Shangguan Yun with his big eyes and blinked, showing his 'simple' heart, and then handed these two items worth hundreds of gold coins to the steward on the side.

, told him to register and take him away later.

Shangguan Yun was speechless for a while, looking at the numbers on the sign, he put his hand into his pocket and touched the dozens of gold coins inside. His hands trembled, and then he gave up. It seemed that he could only look at it today.

.

Looking at the products around him, Shangguan Yun felt overwhelmed. There were all kinds of items, including antiques, precious metals, rare materials, weapons for practitioners, armors, books on cultivation techniques, and martial arts. They were all available, but they were all things that others didn't want.

It was put up for sale. In fact, Shangguan Yun didn't go to the Shangguan family's warehouse to choose. The Shangguan family was such a big family, so the warehouse shouldn't be too shabby.

Shangguan Yun's eyesight is quite good. In some aspects, he can't even compare with ordinary experts. This is all accumulated over the years. After flipping through it a few times, Shangguan Yun saw something that was pretty good, but there was something impure about it.

The blood spirit stone was being sold as a blood crystal stone with a price tag of one thousand gold coins. Shangguan Yun thought it was a pity. In his opinion, it was worth at least ten thousand gold coins. But this material was really useless to Shangguan Yun, and Shangguan Yun was too lazy to do so.

I didn't say anything about the price difference, I just continued to look at other products.

After a while, the steward came over and said something in Yao Qinghan's ear. Yao Qinghan walked towards Shangguan Yun with an excited look on his face, "Come on, new goods are on the shelves. Let's go take a look. In fact, all the good things here have been sold out."

We've almost picked it out, and we can only find something in the new goods section." Yao Qinghan pulled Shangguan Yun up.
