Gu Xiyan looked at Zhou Mu, who silently took the purse from Qi Zhiyuan and handed it to Gu Xiyan: "You can do whatever you want. If it's not enough, I'll let Zhiyuan get it. Just have fun with it."
"
Gu Xiyan suddenly felt a little guilty at this moment. He didn't know anything, but he believed in her so much.
After thinking about it, at least what she did was to deal with Zhou Xing in the future. Those who achieve great things will not stick to trivial matters.
"Fifty thousand taels!!" Gu Xiyan gritted her teeth and raised her placard to bid again.
Princess Yongjia sneered in her heart. It took such a long time to think about fifty thousand taels. She was indeed a bastard in Wanqinghou Mansion who had no one to teach her or raise her.
She did not hesitate to raise her sign to bid again: "Sixty thousand taels!"
Su Ho sat not far away and watched the fun. He felt that these ancient ladies had long hair and short knowledge, and they wasted so much money fighting for a dish just to compete for a moment.
What about "flying into the sky", isn't it just a squab made into a flying shape?
If she had sixty thousand taels, she could do many great things, but now she couldn't even spend one thousand taels. Seeing Princess Yongjia spending so generously, she could only feel hatred and jealousy.
Gu Xiyan seemed to hesitate. She looked at Hu Die, who slapped the table: "Xiyan, keep going, we can't lose the battle, let alone lose the young master!!!"
This sentence touched Princess Yongjia's heart. She really couldn't lose, otherwise she would lose to Gu Xiyan to Zhou Mu.
Gu Xiyan seemed to hesitate for a moment before holding up the sign without any momentum: "Sixty-one thousand taels!"
Princess Yongjia looked at her with a half-smile, took a slow sip of tea, and then raised her placard to bid: "Seventy thousand taels!"
Bai Tiao pulled Princess Yongjia's sleeves aside and reminded her in a low voice: "Princess, we only brought 60,000 taels."
So I can’t add any more.
Hu Die listened clearly on the side, she smiled and said: "I just heard that the princess only brought 60,000 taels. If you shout more than 80,000 taels, Xiyan, the princess will definitely lose to you."
All the diners onlookers thought it was outrageous.
Hu Die's tone sounded as if a strong wind of 80,000 taels could blow.
Eighty thousand taels, what is that concept?
"Seventy thousand and one hundred taels!" At this time, Gu Xiyan actually listened to Hu Die's courage and raised the price again.
Qi Zhiyuan was stunned when he heard this. He looked at his young master and saw that his expression was as usual, as if it was not his money that was defeated.
He couldn't help but imitate Baitao, and tugged Zhou Mu's sleeve furtively, signaling the young master to take care of Miss Gu.
Miss Gu has started to waste her family even before she got married. Can the young master afford to support such a prodigal woman?
Zhou Mu slapped Qi Zhiyuan's hand away in disgust, without even giving Qi Zhiyuan a wink, so Qi Zhiyuan had no choice but to stand aside resignedly.
The young master's love for Miss Gu has no limit. I'm afraid he would like to hand over his life to Miss Gu, right? What's more, it's just some yellow and white things?
Just when everyone thought Gu Xiyan was going to take a picture of this dish, Princess Yongjia suddenly stood up boldly and shouted: "One hundred thousand taels!!"
She looked down at Gu Xiyan from above, provoking Gu Xiyan with her eyes, and if she could continue to increase the price, she would stay with her until the end.
She would never let Gu Xiyan steal her limelight today.
Gu Xiyan secretly swallowed her saliva and secretly thought that it was a dangerous situation. Princess Yongjia's temperament was exactly what she wanted.
She accepted it as soon as she saw the opportunity, cupped her hands and said, "The princess is rich and powerful, Xi Yan feels ashamed of herself, this 'flying to the sky' belongs to the princess."
Princess Yongjia smiled proudly. She stepped forward and grabbed King Zhao's purse: "Let me lend you some money first, and I will give it back to my cousin tomorrow."
After all the money and goods were paid, Princess Yongjia finally got the delicacies that she had bought at a sky-high price.
Xu Yanqing watched all the excitement and couldn't help laughing.
If he was just guessing before, now he is very sure that Gu Xiyan must have deliberately raised the price, and she is working with Wu Tong.
Dong Yong also watched the whole process and couldn't recover for a while.
He didn't come yesterday, so he didn't know that the scene was so popular. Now he has gained some experience. The women in the capital are really terrible.
When he looked up after watching the fun, he saw Xu Yanqing smiling like a lunatic. He felt confused for a moment: "What are you laughing at?"
"I laughed at myself for missing..."
The smile on Xu Yanqing's face gradually dimmed. It was such a pity that he missed such an interesting woman.
Who said she was just a down-and-out orphan with a withdrawn temperament? Miss Gu was so powerful that she could make a hundred thousand taels just by opening her mouth and shouting.
Princess Yongjia, who was being plotted, was still kept in the dark, and she was so proud and ridiculous.
When Dong Yong heard Xu Yanqing say "I missed it", he felt the same way and felt a little melancholy.
Su Ho watched the entire bidding process between Gu Xiyan and Princess Yongjia.
At first she felt that ancient women had no brains, and she wished she could step forward and wake up Princess Yongjia, but looking at Princess Yongjia's crazy look, she felt that nothing she could say would be of any use.
Later, she remembered that Gu Xiyan was not simple-minded. How could she keep bidding for a dish just to please Zhou Mu?
Even if it’s because of a feverish brain and passionate consumption, that doesn’t make sense, right?
Then there is another possibility. Gu Xiyan was deliberately digging a hole for Princess Yongjia to jump into, and Princess Yongjia actually jumped into this hole for the sake of male lust.
If we still convert six hundred to one tael of silver, one hundred thousand taels would be a full 60 million. Jixiang House made a lot of money this time, and Gu Xiyan had a share of the credit for this.
Su Ho's eyes fell on Gu Xiyan, and suddenly he felt that he should re-examine this woman.
If it is true that Gu Xiyan deliberately dug a hole for Princess Yongjia this time, then how come Gu Xiyan is so sure that Princess Yongjia will keep bidding?
Is it because Gu Xiyan knows Princess Yongjia well, or is it because Gu Xiyan is gambling on this game?
Didn't Gu Xiyan never think that if Princess Yongjia didn't continue bidding, she would have to spend 80,000 taels of silver to buy this dish?
Who is Zhou Mu? He has such an outstanding appearance, but he has never heard Zhou Mu's name before, and has never seen Zhou Mu show his face.
As a third-grade household official, Zhou Mu's annual salary is only about 130 taels, and with the addition of Lumi 130 shi, the cash on hand is also limited.
In this case, where did Zhou Mu come up with 80,000 taels of silver to lend to Gu Xiyan?
One more thing, Zhou Mu just became a third-rank official in the Ministry of Household Affairs. He had never been an official before, so he shouldn't have received much salary after becoming an official?
But just now she heard clearly that Zhou Mu asked Qi Zhiyuan to go to his house to collect the money. His determined look did not seem like he was pretending.
Unless Zhou Mu has a deep family background and a good background.
With Princess Yongjia's lesson learned from the past, other auctions will not be so exciting, at least there will no longer be sky-high bidding.
Gu Xiyan did not need to provoke the four girls of the Liu family anymore. After all, these four girls were not enough in front of an enemy like Princess Yongjia.
Because she had made a huge profit, the corners of Gu Xiyan's lips kept turning upwards, and the resentment of Princess Yongjia who wanted to use hot water to ruin her appearance had also dissipated. At this moment, she felt refreshed.
She was so immersed in joy that she never noticed that Zhou Mu's gaze was always fixed on her face.
She basically forgot about her previous threat to bid for delicious food for Zhou Mu.
[Qishi Couple Small Theater]:
Brother Mu: My wife only has money in her eyes.
Sister Xiyan: Aren’t I working so hard to make money just to support you, my brother?
Brother Mu secretly said: It seems that the only way to repay my wife is to work harder at night...
