On the surface, Lin Mengya has no involvement in these auction houses.
But secretly, the Gong family has hidden stocks, and they want to ensure the safety of sellers and buyers.
She took someone with her and entered through the back door.
But instead of going to the VIP seat, I went to a secret cubicle.
This was originally the territory of the steward of the auction house, but now the steward stood beside her with his head bowed and respectfully.
Lin Mengya picked up the cup and looked over the auction list.
"I heard that a lot of things were shipped from overseas this time?"
The manager immediately nodded and said diligently, "Yes, if the young lady likes something, I will ask them to buy it directly."
She raised her eyes and glanced at the steward.
As expected of the person in charge of the auction house, he knew that there were rumors outside but didn't show it at all.
"No need, I'm just here to take a look, please step back."
The manager left immediately, and Lin Mengya lowered her head to look at the list again.
It's not entirely clear how precious the things on it are, it's just a gimmick with imported goods.
"Master, Miss Jin and Miss Pan are here."
Bai Su leaned into her ear and whispered.
Lin Mengya was even more curious. She originally thought it was a buckle made by Jin and Pan. If she rejected it, they might not come.
"Well, let's wait and see."
At this time, the auction outside has officially begun.
The auctioneer is a veteran, and he can stir up a lively atmosphere with just a few words.
After all, those auction items were fresh, and they actually produced several small climaxes.
Lin Mengya had been keeping her eyes closed, and she could hear clearly what was going on outside.
Soon, the auctioneer was heard saying, "The treasure below comes from an overseas country."
The people below did not react very strongly, and the auctioneer was not in a hurry and just continued, "Please take a look at this dress."
Then, someone held up a long dress covered with pearls and jade.
That long dress is so beautiful and sparkles with dazzling light that people can't take their eyes away.
But what’s even more amazing is the matching of gemstones and fabrics.
Many women present were attracted by beauty.
Who doesn’t want to go out wearing such clothes and blind the eyes of people on the street casually?
The auctioneer looked at everyone's thoughts and smiled secretly.
"Actually, the gemstone is secondary. The main reason is that this embroiderer's craftsmanship is extraordinary. As long as she has a pair of skillful hands, even the lowest quality gold thread can be dazzling."
After being reminded by the auctioneer, everyone below discovered that the quality of those gems was not high.
Some of them are so flawed that they are worthless.
But in the hands of the embroiderer, it can turn into decay Decay becomes miraculous.
Some people in the crowd also had some thoughts.
If you can really win the embroiderer, wouldn't it be equivalent to winning a treasure?
Immediately, several owners of silk and satin businesses also took action.
"Compared to this dress, this embroiderer is worth more, so this time, the low price is three hundred taels!"
Everyone was late, and the bidding started the next moment.
After a while, apart from the two wealthy silk merchants, there was only one other businessman who had been sitting in the corner, and an inconspicuous businessman also followed suit and bid.
"Master! It's already five hundred taels now. If it's more, we might even sell the shop and it won't be enough!"
The shopkeeper in charge of bidding said anxiously in a low voice.
But the pretty woman next to her only had anxiety in her eyes.
"No! I must save the man, Uncle Kang, for one thousand taels."
Uncle Kang was stunned for a moment, and then he could only shake his head.
After all, this is the boss's matter, and he can't interfere.
He held up the small wooden sign tremblingly, and after the auctioneer noticed him, he said bitterly, "One, one thousand taels!"
The price soared instantly, making the two silk merchants take a breath.
The monthly salary of an ordinary embroiderer is only a few coins. If it weren't for this woman's special skills, they might not be willing to spend this money.
The two people who paid one thousand taels shook their heads, but they felt in their hearts that the person bidding the price was probably a fool.
Seeing her opponent withdraw from the bidding, the woman quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
My heart just fell, but at the next moment, it felt empty again.
"I'll pay, one thousand five hundred taels."
"Master, Miss Jin has made a bid."
At the same time, in the secret room, Lin Mengya also heard Bai Su's reply.
Sure enough, even if she didn't come, Jin Yao still took action.
Could it be that Jin Yao also valued the embroiderer's skills and wanted to overwhelm Fei Yecheng?
However, with Jin Yao's status, he may not take anything better than this seriously.
She thought for a while and asked Bai Su to get the dress.
Soon, the dress inlaid with jewels was in her hands.
Bai Su helped her tidy up and couldn't help but sigh, "This dress seems to be tailor-made for you."
She raised her head and looked at Bai Su doubtfully.
The latter pointed to the waistline and explained, "Your waist is very thin, so if you wear something that fits you, the waist must be shortened by a few points. I think this dress will fit you very well."
All her clothes
It was taken care of by Bai Su, so it must be right.
But, how could things be such a coincidence?
She turned over the gem-inlaid pins and was slightly shocked.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
"Go, no matter what, I must capture this embroiderer in Jin Yao's hands!"
Her tone was a little urgent, which made Bai Su feel a little worried.
Fortunately, Bai Su was used to obeying her orders, so he turned around and went to do it.
Lin Mengya was left alone, looking at the clothes in her hands in trance.
She was very familiar with that formation.
In the past, when she was in the palace, the few sets of clothes she carried with her all had this stitch. On the last stitch, she would use her skillful hands to punch out a small flower bud.
It's Bletilla, her Bletilla!
After the civil strife in Jin, she made inquiries in many ways, but she did not know the whereabouts of Bai Ji and the others.
Unexpectedly, I saw familiar pins here.
After getting excited, Lin Mengya also vaguely felt that all of this was probably aimed at her!
Very good. If you dare to use her people to plot against her, the method is quite clever.
She gently opened a small carved window. She could see outside, but she could not be seen outside.
She saw Jin Yao and Miss Pan sitting together, and it seemed that she was destined to win over this embroiderer.
I'm afraid, they know the relationship between Baiji and themselves.
But they took the initiative to tell "Su Mei".
I'm afraid there is some deep meaning in this.
The bidding outside has reached fever pitch, and the person who previously bid a thousand taels seemed to be competing with Jin Yao and his wife.
Soon, the price soared to two thousand taels.
Jin Yao didn't expect that there would be someone stupid enough to compete with her.
When I wanted to increase the price, I was stopped by Ms. Pan next to me.
"Miss Jin, I think it's better not to win over others' love."
Jin Yao glanced at the other party coldly.
She dislikes this woman even more than Su Mei.
Everyone wanted a man, but she pretended to be weak and skillful.
But now, they have to unite to face the common enemy Gong Ya.
"What do you know? This woman means something special to Gong Ya. If we can get her, are we worried that we have no chance of winning against her?"
But Miss Pan said softly, "Miss Jin is right, but if Gong Ya knew that she was in your hands, I'm afraid she would be wary and not take the bait so easily."
Jin Yao glanced at her and asked disdainfully, "What do you think we should do?"
"In my opinion, it's better to just let that person buy her first. After that person paid so much money, he will definitely not let her go easily. If Gong Ya knew that the person she cared about was bought by someone else. What do you think Miss Jin will do if you buy her away? Besides, I think that person may not have a family as prominent as Miss Jin. The head of the Gong family, who is elegant and dignified, must be suspected of bullying others."
Jin Yao thought about it and had to admit that this was indeed a clever plan.
But in her eyes, she still looked down upon him and felt that Miss Pan was too unpopular.
"You are smart, okay, then I will help them."
In the end, Jin Yao bid a few more times, knowing that the other party was bound to win.
And this mysterious embroiderer was sold at a high price of 2,800 taels.
"My boss, I bought it, but this money"
Uncle Kang wrinkled into a bitter face.
But his boss, who it was not an exaggeration to say he was bankrupt, had a look of relief on his face.
"Thank you, Uncle Kang. Don't worry, I won't give you less of your salary for this month. I will give you another month's salary after you go back. I have worked hard for you in the past six months."
The woman didn't know what she was thinking, but the family fortune she had finally managed to acquire was in vain because of a strange embroiderer.
Uncle Kang sighed, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"No, it's because of your trust in me that I can live a good life. Boss, if you want to make a comeback, my old bones can still come in handy."
The woman smiled a little reluctantly, but she didn't regret it.
Urging Uncle Kang to bring someone over with the property title deed, the woman went ahead and returned to her carriage.
"Old gentleman, please stay."
Uncle Kang looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him in surprise, and couldn't help but subconsciously cover the box containing all of his boss's wealth.
Bai Su looked at no one around him, lowered his voice and said, "I have a deal, and I would like to ask the old gentleman to fulfill it."
Lin Mengya waited in the cubicle for a while, but Bai Su didn't come back.
She knows that Bai Su is cautious in doing things, and Bai Su has a lot of money at his disposal. Even if the other person is a lion, Bai Su can still make the decision to intercept the person.
But unexpectedly, as soon as Bai Su entered the door, he apologized to her and said, "Master, it's my incompetence. That man won't sell anything."
Not for sale?
She couldn't help but feel tense in her heart.
She had inquired with the manager before, and found out that the inconspicuous merchant was new to the auction house, and he didn't seem to have much wealth.
Could it be that who sent her here to lure her into the bait?
"You send people to keep an eye on them first. If they want to do harm to Bai Ji, rescue them immediately."
"Baiji? Master, do you think that embroiderer is Baiji?"
At this time, even Bai Su, a deserted iceberg beauty, opened his eyes and asked in surprise.
