"This is the story my grandfather told me," Bill Hall shrugged. "There is no way to verify this history. I'm not sure how exaggerated the story my grandfather told me is, but what I can be sure of is that my ancestors
He must be a person with outstanding ability and intelligence. Only by daring to take risks and retreating from the crisis can he obtain so many treasures. Just like an investor, he seizes the opportunity to invest and then retreats smartly before danger comes, so that he can obtain
Benefits beyond ordinary people’s imagination.”
Chi Feichi believed that there was not much exaggeration in that story, and wanted to further test the situation of Bill Hall's family, so he said, "Anyway, these things can prove that your ancestors have made extraordinary achievements. If I were Huo
Mr. Er, I must be reluctant to sell so many things."
"Although I am a little reluctant to part with it, my father and I are really not interested in collecting these things. We prefer banknotes, gold and gems to this. I think it will be better if they get into the hands of people who value them, so that it will be better for them to cherish them."
Maybe it is a good thing for them and for me." Bill Hall smiled and said with a mysterious face, "In fact, my ancestors also traveled far away after leaving the Holy Knights.
Some gold and silver items were sold on the road, but my ancestor told his descendants before his death that nine treasures could not be sold casually, so my father kept these things that he was not interested in..."
"Nine treasures? Are they the auction items this time?" Nanatsuki Koshizui did not let Chi Feichi talk alone. He pretended to be attracted by the topic, looked at the list of auction items and took stock, "However, the box, the horn cup,
Sword, ring, jar...there are only eight things here, right?"
"Yes, there was originally a very big cloak," Bill Hall stretched out his hand to draw a large frame in the void, "but the curse of the wizards still remained on that cloak. My grandfather said that it used to be
The cloak is placed in the underground treasure house together with eight other items. From a certain day, it will make people who enter the underground treasure house lose consciousness and take the opportunity to secretly absorb the life force from people. My grandfather fainted inexplicably several times when entering the underground treasure house.
In the past, after waking up, I felt weak and in a daze, and could not recover for several days. This happened several times. My father also encountered a similar situation when he naughtily sneaked into the warehouse when he was a child. Later, my grandfather thought
This was the wizard's curse awakening, and for the safety of his family, he asked people from a nearby church to take away the cloak and gave the cloak to the church."
"Could it be the reason for the thin oxygen in the basement?" Smith joined the topic with interest. "The basement is often closed, and the oxygen inside is thin, so people who have just entered will fall into coma due to insufficient oxygen, and become trance-like and dizzy.
Weakness is actually the sequelae of a period of lack of oxygen in the body."
"I think so," Bill Hall said with a helpless smile. "My grandfather believed in the legend of holy knights and wizards. He said that after he gave the cloak to the church, a priest came to the house and prayed.
, this kind of thing has never happened again, but I think it may be that the church people helped adjust the vents of the underground treasure house, so that the ventilation condition of the underground treasure house became better. Unfortunately, my father sold it when he grew up.
The next owner of the farm renovated the farm. Now, it may be completely different from when my grandfather managed the farm, so the truth of this matter cannot be confirmed, and I have not been back there for a long time.
"
Another foreign man couldn't help but join in the conversation with a smile, "Actually, this is also a good thing. If there is really a curse on the cloak, giving the cloak to the church can ensure that your family will not be harmed by the curse. If it is just a ventilation problem in the basement, then
The church should help your family solve this problem. It is very dangerous to go into the basement and suffer from hypoxic shock. If it is not dealt with in time, it will put the lives of the family members in danger. It is a serious safety hazard for children. Look at it this way
Come on, Mr. Bill’s grandfather is actually a wise man who knows how to make choices!”
"Maybe," Bill Hall laughed, "but I do think he always does the right thing in a daze."
"I'm sorry to disturb the conversation of all distinguished guests," a waiter in a formal dress walked to the coffee table and reminded him in a gentle tone, "but the auction will start in three minutes. I hope you don't miss the time."
Just when Koshizu Nanatsuki was hesitating whether to test it again or leave directly, Chi Feichi stood up neatly and seemed to have no nostalgia for the previous topic, "Since the auction is about to start, let's
I’m going to say goodbye now, I have to go downstairs to find a friend, and we’ll chat another day when we have a chance.”
Suzuki Jirokichi and Bill Hall also stood up. After saying goodbye to Chi Feichi, they greeted each other and left the small living room one by one and returned to their respective lounges.
Chi Feichi led Nanatsuki Koshizui down the stairs. When Nanatsuki Koshizui wanted to speak, he stopped him in a low voice, "Wait a minute..."
Keshui Nanatsuki was confused. When he saw Chi Feichi stopping, he looked back at the stairs on the second floor, and he also looked at it.
Chi Feichi made sure that there was no one at the stairs on the second floor, then looked away, reached out and took out a button-sized black object from the inside of the back hem of his dress jacket, and said to the black object, "Have you heard enough? If you want to go to the second floor,
Come to the stairs quickly, I'll wait for you for three minutes at most."
"This is..." Koshizui Nanatsuki looked at what looked like a micro-eavesdropping device in Chi Feichi's hand in surprise. He thought about all the people who might have installed eavesdropping devices on Chi Feichi. Combined with Chi Feichi's attitude, he quickly thought of
When they entered the door, Kuroba Kaito, who was standing behind Nakamori Ginzo, seemed to retreat a little toward the door and confirmed to Chi Feichi in a low voice, "Kaito? Is that when we entered?"
Chi Feichi nodded, crushed the bug into pieces with his fingers, and then put the broken parts of the bug into his coat pocket and whispered, "He should be waiting for me at the door, except for the Suzuki family."
Man, I'm the one most likely to be exposed to Suzuki Consultant Fishing's new lures."
"Collect intelligence in advance?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki was a bit dumbfounded. "Ms. Chikage has told me before about the importance of collecting intelligence in advance, but I thought that magicians don't need to start collecting information so early."
"Magicians should start collecting information earlier, so that they can think about the content of the performance in advance and prepare magic props." Chi Feichi continued to walk downstairs, took out his mobile phone and dialed Koizumi Hongzi's number.
"Hongzi, do you want to come to the lounge on the second floor... By the way, Kaito installed a bug on me before. I thought he also wanted to come to the second floor, so I also informed him..."
In a lounge in the corner of the second floor, Mizuno Yoshikazu sent Suzuki Shiro and Suzuki Tomoko to the door.
Feimo Shota followed Mizuno Yoshikazu and waited for the Suzukis to leave. After Mizuno Yoshikazu closed the door, he followed Mizuno Yoshikazu back into the room, sat on the sofa, and reached out to pick up the auction list on the table.
There was nothing he could do about his cheap uncle insisting on coming. After all, his invitation letter came from Mizuno Yoshikazu...
Although Mizuno Yoshikazu wanted to accompany him, the invitation letter never reached him. He was considered a child brought by Mizuno Yoshikazu and did not need an invitation letter.
Mizuno Yoshikazu sat next to Feimo Shota and saw Feimo Shota opening the list of auction items. Thinking that he had never given any valuable gifts to his nephew, he thought that if his nephew liked something, he could help buy it.
He asked aloud, "Xiao Mo, is there anything you like in this auction?"
"There are two items that look pretty good..." Feimo Shota wrote down the auction order of the two items that Chi Feichi said, and then reached out and put the list on the table in front of Mizuno Yoshikazu, "By the way, you also
See if there is anything you like, I will buy it for you as a gift."
Mizuno Yoshikazu: "?"
Wait, he should be the one to say these words, right?
Seeing Mizuno Yoshikazu's surprised look, Feimo Shota took the initiative to explain, "My father has invested abroad before and accumulated a lot of money. Xiaoshu likes to watch monkey documentaries recently. I want to buy the little monkey stone statue for him."
As a gift, buy something for yourself by the way. If uncle likes something, I can buy it for you. You can just give me a gift next time."
Mizuno Yoshikazu felt that a certain shota's concern for his younger brother was very good, and he should support it, so he did not insist on paying the bill himself. Seeing that Mr. Mo didn't act like a joke when he talked about buying gifts for himself, he thought about accepting it himself.
Gifts from nephews can also bring people closer together. At most, I will get a more valuable gift in two days. I looked at the list of auction items and thought about it. I chose something with an auction price that cannot be too high. "If you want to say that I like it,
Yes, then auction item No. 3, the bell..."
"But, the thing I like is this bell," Fei Mozhengtai showed a little embarrassment on his face, "Uncle, can you choose another one?"
The owner asked him to buy, in addition to the little monkey stone statue of the Red Magic Family, this bell that was suspected to be an artifact of other Magic Family.
He thought the owner had considered that these two items were more like children's toys and could easily attract children's attention. In addition, the final auction price would not be too high. As a child, it would not be surprising for him to buy it, so
So I assigned these two things to him to take pictures of.
Although Miss Witch should have prepared high-quality imitation replacements, it is best for these two items to be owned by him, so that even if they are replaced with high-quality imitation replacements, he will not find anyone to identify the authenticity.
"So this is what Xiao Mo likes. It seems that we have very similar visions," Mizuno Yoshikazu smiled and got closer to his nephew, and looked at the list of auction items with some embarrassment, "Since Xiao Mo likes bells,
Just give the bell to Xiao Mo, as for me..."
Feimo was worried that Mizuno Yoshikazu had chosen boxes and jars that looked like the auction prices would not be too high. He reached out and turned the page in the album, "Uncle, let's take a look at the gems. These gems are very beautiful."
Mizuno Yoshikazu was moved and happy when he thought that his nephew wanted to buy him a gift. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that his nephew was the most sensible child in the world. He smiled and said, "It is indeed very beautiful. So which one do you think is suitable for me, Xiao Mo?"
Fei Mozhengtai: "..."
Well, the day of pretending to be a human cub to deal with enthusiastic humans has begun again.
