In the auction house on the top floor, hundreds of powerful semi-saints stared at each other with different expressions, and all of them gave way to a position on the left and center.
There, an old man and a young man sit opposite each other, with countless delicacies on the table, fine wine and delicious food, and the aroma is overflowing.
Although he was extremely greedy, no one dared to get close to him. Even if he took a second look, he quickly looked away. The cautious ones even closed their senses directly, as if they were afraid of trouble.
You can hear a pin drop, and the atmosphere is so weird that it makes you hairy!
Especially the fat old man, whose body was trembling with fat, seemed to be trembling all over, and his fat face was distorted.
“If you don’t like fried fish, then just boil the fish fillets!”
Wu Ming clearly didn't intend to let him go, so finally someone came to his doorstep.
As he said that, he took out a clay pot the size of a sea bowl, put water in it, and poured a large piece of fish meat directly into it. Wu Ming patted the outer edge of the clay pot, and soon the water bubbled and bubbled - the water boiled!
The fish fillets are crystal clear, uniform in thickness, and without any flaws. It can be seen that the control of the fire and strength of the knife is extremely extraordinary.
When it is boiled in hot water, the fish meat not only does not turn white, but turns a light golden color, with a hint of clouds and mist, and the aroma rises like a tide, refreshing the heart and mind.
Even a strong semi-saint feels his lungs are nourished just by taking a breath of the aroma, which shows how precious this fish meat is.
But the fat and white old man didn't dare to take another look. He stared straight at Wu Ming, trembling all over, as if he had endured an unimaginable test and was about to faint in the next moment.
"Not good at steaming? You are so cunning!"
Wu Ming grunted dissatisfiedly, swallowed the fish meat, drank the wine happily, took a long breath and said, "Yes, I have never seen such a difficult person to serve, but who told me to respect the old and love the young? No.
Eating raw and fried food is not good for your heart and lungs, so you can forget about it. If you don’t want to eat boiled fish, just steam it!"
With that said, he took out a dry pot, put the whole plate of fish directly on it, and covered it with a lid.
"No, no, little friend!"
The fat, white old man had a mournful face, stretched out his hand to stop him, and said in a solemn voice, "I am Jia Wanqiong, the big shopkeeper of Tongbao Trading Company. I heard that my little friend and my Xiaoliu are close friends. We have never met each other before, so I came here to take a look today. My name is
What a charming King Xiaoyao is in Manchuria.
As expected, it is better to hear a hundred times than to see him once, he is really a dragon and a phoenix among men, a peerless hero."
Everyone rolled their eyes when they heard it, but they didn't feel much discomfort.
Although it is true that Wu Ming is ruthless and has no scruples in his actions, when it comes to the geniuses of the world, they may not be able to name many people, but they also know that Wu Ming must be one of them, and the best.
No one can refute this point, not even the enemy. Otherwise, it would not be looking down on Wu Ming, but an insult to himself!
"Oh, it turns out it's Mr. Jia in person!"
Wu Ming bowed his hand.
Then, there was nothing more, just eating fish by myself, as if all my attention was focused on it.
What does that look of disgust on your face mean?
Jia Wanqiong's expression froze, but he did not dare to say anything. He knew that the boy in front of him was extremely smart and must have recognized him long ago. However, he always called himself "this king", obviously not wanting to have more friendship.
In fact, there was not much friendship between the two parties. The person who had friendship with Wu Ming was Jia Zhengjing.
He also told him clearly that relying on relationships and relying on one's old skills in front of him would not work at all.
It may even be embarrassing!
Just like now, your dignified old head of the Jia family, Tongbao Trading Co., Ltd. is an old monster who talks about everything in Jiazi. He is a semi-sage, has a knack for money, and has the ability to conceive. How can you not deal with a junior?
This guy is simply insufferable!
"Ahem!"
Jia Wanqiong coughed dryly, suppressed the curse, and said calmly, "My little friend is very cheerful, but the reception is not good enough, so you are asked to prepare the food by yourself?"
Looking at his smiling face, people who didn't know better thought he was an elder who cared about the younger generation.
But only those who are familiar with him know that this old guy is a real cannibal, a guy who has sold eight generations of his ancestors, helped him count the money, and is even grateful.
"If you can't get used to eating, do it yourself and have enough food and clothing!"
Wu Ming grinned and pretended to close the lid and said, "If you don't want to eat it, don't stop the younger generation from eating it. By the way, you really don't want to eat it. This is a great tonic. It is a rare delicacy in the world. If you are an ordinary person,
Juniors don’t want to say hello!”
"Ha, little friend, can you give me some face? You are satisfied with your own food, but people think that our bank's hospitality is not good, which will really affect the business. If word spreads, how will people think of our bank?"
?”
Jia Wanqiong was really speechless, wishing that he was that ordinary person, but unfortunately he was not, and he could only think about it in his heart, but he said haha.
"Ah, oh!"
Wu Ming was stunned, looked around suspiciously and said, "Who dares?"
Who dares!
Just two words, concise and concise, but extremely clear, expressing the domineering attitude of treating people as if they were nothing!
But unfortunately, no one refuted it.
It’s not that I don’t dare, it’s that I don’t want to. It’s none of my business, so why bother with it?
Jia Wanqiong's anger surged, and he wanted to slap this bastard to death for pretending to be stupid, but he also knew the consequences of such a slap.
Could it be said that just because someone is at the auction venue and eats the food he brought, he should be beaten and killed?
This is a good thing to say or not, no matter what your reasons are, if you really do it, Tongbao Trading Company will be flooded with the spit of someone who doesn't know what you are doing.
Furthermore, the master in front of me can be bullied at will?
If this is true, Wu Ming was devoured alive by dragon merchants from all over the world as early as ten years ago at the auction, and it would not be the old man's turn to take action.
"Haha, my little friend is joking. When we open the door to do business, what matters is that we should be kind to others and be friendly to make money. How can we cause trouble for no reason!"
Jia Wanqiong endured the discomfort and whispered, "Little friend, don't speak secretly in front of people. Your fish is a good thing, but can you not eat it here?"
Why can't you eat here?
Jin Liuli, the only daughter of the Demon Saint Jinlin, and the princess of the Huanglong Palace, relied on the Holy Shadow to return her own blood, and was definitely one of the most noble true dragons in the world.
Yes, if there were mixed bloodlines in Jin Liuli before, but with the canonization of Jinlin, all this no longer exists, and it becomes more extraordinary and noble. Who can let someone have a good family background and a good father?
But the key is that, apart from the Jia family, the owner of Tongbao Trading Company is Sihai Longshang!
Wu Ming can ignore the Four Seas Dragon Merchant. It seems that the Four Seas Dragon Merchant can't do anything to him now, but the key is that the Dragon Clan also sent people to participate in this big auction.
When the time comes, not only my uncle can't bear it, but my aunt can't bear it either!
If a fight really breaks out, a big auction won't be held, and once they come into contact, there will definitely be a fight, there is no doubt about it.
Let me ask, if a monster eats people in front of everyone in the venue, who can bear it?
"Oh, that's it!"
Wu Ming's hand holding the lid of the pot paused, his eyes showed a thoughtful look, and he smiled and said, "You are always Fatty Jia's grandfather. Logically speaking, you always speak, and the younger generation must listen, but this younger generation only likes this, you
What should I do?"
You said what to do, but you can't just take it as what you said to do. It's clear that playing ball is a big problem!
"What do you want to do, little friend?"
Jia Wanqiong hesitated and said.
He knew this was a trap, but he had to come, because the powerful dragon clan was about to arrive, and the Four Seas Dragon Merchants had no choice but to ask him to come forward.
Originally, he was happy to see the jokes of Four Seas Longshang, but he couldn't abandon public affairs for personal reasons, and just watched the Tongbao Trading Company's brand get smashed.
"Ha ha!"
Wu Ming smiled heartily, and put away the dishes as if he was quite generous. While doing so, he said, "As you said, this fish is a good thing. Since it is an auction, I still remember the big auction ten years ago."
, the most precious treasures are usually bartered, and treasures are exchanged for treasures. I wonder if this fish can be considered a treasure?"
"this……"
Jia Wanqiong was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly came back to his senses. His little eyes were wide open and his eyes were full of energy. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Forget it, of course!"
More than just calculation?
If this fish can really be regarded as a treasure, even if it is not an auction item, as long as it can be exchanged and released, it will be a great good relationship with China's new noble Golden Scale Demon Saint, and it will also form a friendship with Huanglong Palace.
Although it doesn't sound good to say that the transaction is successful, as long as it can be saved, it will be a huge favor.
"Oh well!"
Wu Ming nodded, reluctantly put away the fish, and sighed, "You can't waste a treasure just to satisfy your appetite!"
"Okay, little friend, take a break, I still have a lot of things to do here!"
Jia Wanqiong smiled brightly and looked at Wu Ming, feeling a little pleased with him.
"Oh, you're just doing it yourself!"
Wu Ming bowed slightly and did not stand up. He did not really regard the other party as an elder at all. When the other party turned around, he slapped his forehead fiercely and seemed to have thought of something and shouted, "I forgot, this junior and Fatty Jia have not seen each other for many years."
, I miss him very much. I heard that he is in the capital this time, could you please ask senior to let him come and talk to me?"
"This... ha, don't be surprised, little friend. You have also seen that the big auction is about to start. He really can't get away. And... he will be in charge of the grandmaster auction house later, or else he will wait until the auction.
After it’s over?”
Jia Wanqiong froze, turned around slowly and said.
"Okay, please do as you please!"
Wu Mingxiao watched Jia Wanqiong's round back leave and murmured, "Sure enough, a businessman is a businessman, the ultimate benefit!"
It is reasonable for Jia Zhengjing to find it difficult to show up, but he threw out such a big bait and the other party did not take the bait. It can be seen that he originally planned to stay out of the matter and never get involved.
Thinking about it, it is true that the purpose of the Jia family is to put profits first, and it is the nature of businessmen to pursue profits. At this juncture, how can a shrewd person like the Jia family really let the children of the family get involved with Wu Ming?
There is no better way to protect yourself than this!
Of course, if Wu Ming could withstand this disaster, it would be a different matter, and it would be another situation.
"Haha, the bait has been thrown out, now it depends on whether the fish will take the bait!"
Thinking of this, Wu Ming gave a cold expression, but he was not too happy or angry. After all, he had already seen through it, but he was still a little unhappy in his heart.
In such a family, there is no family affection at all, and without human touch, can they still be considered human beings? (To be continued)
