Chapter 1977: Familiar with Stitches(1/2)

 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.
To be continued...
