() A quiet room that is not very spacious, with two three-person sofas facing each other.
The fat pig looked aside and sat down. He alone occupied more than half of the sofa suitable for three adults.
Li Huo and Angela sat down on the sofa opposite him.
The fat pig opened his collar, pulled a fan from the side, and fanned it vigorously. A large amount of sweat came out of the pores on his body and gathered into a small stream flowing down.
Li Huo didn't say a word, just stared at him.
Fatty Pig fanned for a while, and saw that Li Huo was not impulsive or spoke, and seemed to be very tolerant. He himself couldn't bear the embarrassing atmosphere at first, so he flattered him: "My lord, I just took the magic ball.
I haven’t seen it clearly yet, can you show me again?”
Li Huo stared at him without saying a word, just staring at him.
Fat Pig seemed to be unable to bear Li Huo's direct gaze and moved his body uneasily.
After a while, Li Huo finally spoke: "No need to read anymore, let's talk about selling equipment."
Fatty Pig sighed secretly in his heart, and put a smile on his round and fat face. His narrow facial features were all squeezed into a ball: "Sir, our auction house has collected this magic ball. What do you think of the forty-five thousand gold coins?"
?”
Li Huo curled his lips disdainfully and did not answer.
"Fifty thousand! Fifty thousand gold coins!" Fatty Pig quickly raised the price: "How about more..."
"Okay, this magic ball is for my own use and will not be sold." Li Huo interrupted Fatty Pig, took out the blue equipment one by one from the inventory, and placed it on the table between the two sofas.
superior.
One thing was displayed by Li Huo, and Fatty Pig just glanced at it.
Li Huo put out the three-piece cup, and Fat Pig began to divert his attention.
Five items were displayed by Li Huo, and Fatty Pig began to look forward to it.
Ten items were displayed by Li Huo. The fat pig's pupils gradually enlarged and his breathing was no longer steady.
Twenty items were displayed by Li Huo. The fat pig was panting, its eyes were as wide as bells, and the sausage mouth could not close.
Finally, when Li Huo laid out all the more than 30 pieces of blue equipment, the table and the floor were covered with equipment.
The fat pig looked at this item, looked at that item, and asked in a trembling voice: "Are these all for sale?"
"That's right, you do the statistics to see how much the total value is, then pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and leave immediately." Li Huo said impatiently.
Fat Pig quickly walked out of the inner room, found three employees to count the equipment with him, and then gave the prices one by one, marking and pasting them on the equipment.
At last count, this batch of blue equipment was worth a total of 29,820 gold coins.
"There is a total of more than 29,000 pieces of equipment worth. Since the quantity of this batch of equipment is large enough, the discount price is 30,000 gold coins. All of them are here. Please count them." Fat Pig smiled ingratiatingly, nodded and bowed, pointing his carrot-like fingers.
, pointing to a large bag filled with gold coins on the side, shaking his head and talking.
Li Huo immediately put the gold coins into the inventory, looked at the number 32145 at the bottom of the inventory, and nodded to indicate that the number of gold coins was correct.
Fatty Zhu watched with envy as Li Huo put a lot of gold coins into his inventory, making his originally bulging pocket suddenly empty and shriveled. He couldn't help but said: "It's more convenient for professionals, so many gold coins."
You can easily take it away in one go, and you can take it out of the inventory with just a thought, which is really convenient."
Li Huo smiled and did not answer. Instead, he called Angela and said, "Angela, let's go. I will give you the gold coins when I go to your house."
Only then did Fat Pig focus on Angela who stood up from the sofa. He was immediately stunned by Angela's beauty.
Seeing the fat pig standing there, drooling in a daze, Li Huo felt funny in his heart, and said goodbye loudly: "Okay, our deal is over, I'm leaving now, I won't send you away!"
When Li Huo and Li Huo walked out of the inner room, Fat Pig finally came to his senses and hurriedly chased him out: "Sir, if you want to sell that magic ball, you must come to me and I will give you a satisfactory price.
"
"Okay, when my level increases and I no longer need this equipment, I will come to you to sell it." Li Huo's reply came from afar.
Fatty Pig then reluctantly turned back to the inner room and began to excitedly count the equipment that Li Huo and the others were selling.
…
Li Huo and Angela walked out of the auction house, followed the crowd, and started walking towards Angela's home.
Angela's home is in a corner on the west side of the North City, and the auction house is in the center of the South City. If the two of them walked there, they would probably have to wait until dark.
So Li Huo wanted to hire a carriage to take the two of them back to Angela's home.
But Angela rejected Li Huo's proposal. She said that she wanted to go somewhere now and was not in a hurry to go home.
Li Huo was puzzled and followed Angela towards the east of Nancheng.
Along the way, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians, and their clothes became more and more luxurious.
The houses on both sides are becoming more and more sparse, with each house separated by ten or even tens of meters.
The two of them made twists and turns and turned into a small alley. The alley was not long, but very quiet. There were walls on both sides made of red bricks and stones.
The walls are very high, making the whole alley appear deep and deserted.
Finally, at a corner, Angela stopped. She looked ahead and remained silent.
Li Huo also walked to the corner and looked forward.
They saw a wide secondary road in front of them. The two of them turned out of the alley and inserted themselves into this secondary road.
Although this secondary road is not as wide as the two main roads running from north to south and east to west at Rogge Camp, it is still enough for six standard carriages to pass side by side.
There were not many pedestrians on the roadside, but there were a lot of horse-drawn carriages in the middle of the road, and there was a constant flow of people coming and going.
What Angela was staring at right now was the house on the left across the street from the alley.
This house is built in the center of a large courtyard surrounded by high walls painted white.
The orange round spire is full of Gothic luxury. On the white side walls, nine round windows are wrapped by a white fence with small square columns.
The upper end of the facade is a tall and large glass window, vertical pilasters and overhead flying buttresses, as well as small spiers of buttresses and huge window openings, which combine to give people a feeling of rising.
At the lower end is the arched yellow main entrance of the house. With Li Huo's current vision, he can clearly see many strange flowers carved on the walls around the entrance.
At this moment, the courtyard door of this house, which can definitely be regarded as a villa on earth, is wide open.
Looking straight in from the open entrance of the courtyard, you can see countless flowers in full bloom, green grass and shady trees.
The straight road leading from the courtyard gate to the house door is lined with a variety of white stone sculptures, including figures, animals, scenery, and fantasy.
A large crowd of people was standing at the entrance of the courtyard. The male and female servants were separated into two lines. At the front of the line was an old man wearing a butler's uniform. They were all anxiously waiting for something.
Angela just watched motionless, looking at the crowd, and looking at the courtyard.
Suddenly, a luxurious four-wheel box-type enclosed carriage came from a distance. The driver on the carriage tried hard to control the four horses pulling the carriage. The speed of the carriage began to slow down at a constant speed, and finally stopped slowly right in front of the crowd.
.
Since Li Huo and Li Huo were on the side, they could clearly see that the door of the carriage opened, and a cute little girl of four or five years old wearing a pink princess costume climbed down from the carriage on her hands and knees.
When several maids saw the door open, they came forward and gathered around the carriage. They watched carefully as the little girl climbed out of the carriage. They all looked like they wanted to help but did not dare to help, fearing that the little girl would fall.
When the little girl climbed down from the carriage safely, rushed to the old housekeeper's side, raised her head and pulled his sleeves, and said something to the old housekeeper happily.
A young and beautiful woman also slowly got off the carriage.
The woman was wearing a long white fluffy skirt and a large white sun hat, with a small red flower inserted in the concave edge of the hat.
She stepped out of the carriage gracefully, looked at the little girl's lively and cute appearance, smiled slightly, and then said something to the old housekeeper. A group of servants surrounded them, one large and one small, and the two women entered the courtyard.
When Angela saw this, she couldn't stand it anymore. She covered her face with her hands and leaned weakly on the wall of the alley on one side. She slowly slid down the wall and finally squatted on the ground, covering her face with her hands.
He stood face to face with his head sandwiched between his knees, silent and motionless.
Li Huo's mind was full of questions. He saw Angela's unhappy look, but he couldn't say anything. He didn't know anything, so how could he comfort her?
Li Huo could only stand aside speechlessly, quietly looking at Angela squatting on the ground, and sighing in his heart.
After a long time, Angela suppressed her emotions and regained her composure on the surface. She looked at Li Huo calmly and said, "I'm sorry, captain, for keeping you waiting. Let's go back to my house right now."
Li Huo was even more puzzled, but when he saw Angela turning away, he could only follow her. Although he really wanted to grab Angela's neck with both hands, shake her back and forth, and ask her fiercely what was going on.
, but this is just his imagination, and his relationship with her has not reached that level.
…
After getting off the carriage, Li Huo tossed a gold coin to the coachman, indicating that he didn't need to look for it anymore, and then looked forward.
An extremely narrow courtyard, a dilapidated and low house, and a feeble old locust tree.
This is Angela's home, her real home.
The strong contrast made Li Huo extremely anxious, and he seemed to be almost unable to control his emotions.
For the first time, Li Huo hated his curiosity so much.
He didn't like this feeling very much, this feeling of being unable to control himself and judge things rationally.
Angela stepped forward and took out a mottled and aged bronze key from the inventory. With one hand, she pulled the rough and large copper lock at the entrance to the hospital. With the other hand, she inserted the key into the jack, and then twisted it slightly.
, there was a creak, and the copper lock opened.
Angela took off the copper lock and pushed the two iron doors hard. A sharp and harsh creaking sound sounded. The two iron doors, which had not been opened for ten days, separated to both sides. For the first time, Angela's house faced
Li Huo turned on.
"Haha, it's An An who's back!" A middle-aged woman's unique voice sounded from behind Li Huo.
