Chapter 250

Two days later.

Yanjing City.

As the family with the strongest financial resources in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Fei family naturally had a magnificent auction venue.This place covers an area of ​​about five or six acres, and is located in the most prosperous section of Chaoxi Street. There is a wide and magnificent main road in front of it and at the left and right ends. If you look down from above, it looks like a T-junction.

The sun has just risen, and this place is already full of traffic. Fortunately, the surrounding main roads are wide and generous, otherwise this place would have been blocked long ago.

After the carriage stopped, many luxuriously dressed people came down one after another, but what is strange is that everyone who came here today brought his wife and Miss Qianjin with him. If you look carefully, these men The expressions on their faces were so helpless, but the face of the woman who came with them was filled with a trace of joy and a faint urgency.

"Brother Wang, you're here too." The acquaintances already greeted each other.

"Yo, Boss Zhao, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Isn't this Brother Chen? Hey, it seems that there are quite a few people here today."

Facing other people's greetings, someone glanced at the wife behind him, turned his head and said helplessly: "Well, since my wife has seen the clothes worn by those ladies, she insists on clamoring for me to buy one for her." No, I finally found out the source of this dress, and thanked the Fei family for giving me an invitation letter, so I hurried over here, and if I don't buy one for her, I'm afraid my family will be in a state of chaos."

When the man's wife heard what he said, she immediately twisted his waist fiercely, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

The man gasped in pain.

Seeing his miserable state, the people around turned their heads to look at the hostile-looking wife and daughter who were following behind them, and immediately swallowed what they wanted to say.

"However, Fei Yuan is good at doing business. It's just a piece of clothing. As for bringing it to this auction house? Could it be that he still wants us to bid? It's just a piece of clothing, no matter how expensive it is, it can be so expensive. As for the trouble?"

"That is to say, even if we bid, how much more money can we earn? Since we can come here, why do we care about the little money? Just tell us the price and let us buy it. Everyone present is not a prominent person, Come here to bid on a woman's clothes, it's really disrespectful!"

"Hey, what on earth is Fei Yuanwai thinking? He is so rich and still cares about these three melons and two dates?"

After listening to a group of them chatting nonchalantly for a long time, some wives didn't want to listen.

"What do you know? The cloth, fabric, and embroidered patterns are extremely detailed. How many women own it in the entire Yanjing City? Even the princess is full of praise for it. So what if it is put up for auction? If ordinary people If you can buy them casually, wouldn’t it also disgrace the status of the princess and the wives of those grown-ups?”

"That's right, I don't want to wear the same clothes as those vulgar women. It's best for the fee-paying staff to take it out for auction. The highest bidder wins. Those who have no money should stay away as soon as possible. Don't come here to embarrass yourself and make them feel like that." I don't want a woman to wear the same clothes as me!"

Hearing what their wives said, those rich merchants immediately looked at each other, smiled wryly, and stopped talking.

Woman, I can't afford to mess with you!

After about a while, many officials' carriages also drove over, and at this moment, the gate of the auction house was slowly opened, and Fei Zihuai led several servants to Shi Shiran out of it.

Seeing that the lord came out, the scene became quiet, only Fei Zihuai bowed to everyone, apologized and saluted, and said with a smile: "Boy, Fei Zihuai has seen all the adults, uncles and uncles, and I have kept you waiting for a long time. It’s not a kid, please come in quickly, my Fei family has prepared good tea and snacks for you, I apologize and hope everyone is happy.”

As the leader of the family of merchants in Yanjing City, the Fei family's status is undeniable. Now Fei Zihuai's words have given everyone face, and there is a trace of satisfied smile on their faces.

Inside the auction house.

It is really magnificent, although these people have been here many times, but every time they come here, there will always be an inexplicable shock in their hearts.

In the empty hall, pearl curtains hung down one after another, dividing the place into a quiet little world.Among them is a table made of high-quality paulownia wood and two or three chairs, and on each table is an extremely delicate incense burner, with green smoke coming out of the mouth of the burner, creating an even more beautiful atmosphere. A sense of comfort and peace.

Above the hall, a corridor covered with carpets gathers around, and there are many independent boxes in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and there is a gorgeously dressed and sweet-looking young woman standing at the door of each box, holding a paper Fan, smiling sweetly.

Everyone has been here many times, and they also know this unwritten rule. The more noble the person, the more they will naturally sit in the front, and the boxes above are naturally only for members of the royal family or officials above the second rank of the court. Those who are qualified to sit, ordinary people naturally don't expect extravagantly.

It was still early, and many people who had received the invitation letter hadn't come yet, so Fei Zihuai greeted the people who came to sit down one after another, served tea and pastries, and then carefully arranged some technicians to sit in the middle of the field to serve everyone Playing a ditty.

Although they were waiting, the Fei family's hospitality made everyone feel very satisfied.

Ye Fu.

Ye Hongyuan sat in the front hall, looked at the invitation letter in his hand, and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Gao Ziyang, who had nothing to do, also came to the front hall at this time, saw his uncle holding an invitation card in his hand and kept looking at it, he walked over and asked curiously: "Uncle, which adult gave you this invitation card?" , why do I see that your face is a little weird?"

Hearing this boy's words, Ye Hongyuan suddenly looked up at him and asked, "Where did you get that dress that you gave Lin Xue that day?"

When Gao Ziyang heard him ask this suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, and said awkwardly, "Didn't I tell you all? I bought it on the street."

In the past two days, the Hanfu craze in Yanjing City has been raging. As a minister of the court, he deals with various officials every day. How can he not see the clothes of those ladies, which look similar to Ye Linxue's? Although there are some differences, they generally come from the same mold.

Only after he asked casually did he realize that he bought it on the street, but it was given to them by the princess. So far, there are only a few pieces in Yanjing City.

Ye Hongyuan made more inquiries and learned that the clothes originally came from the concubine of His Highness Prince Jing, and it was on that day that Gao Ziyang brought back such a dress and gave it to Ye Linxue.

How can Ye Hongyuan not see such obvious traces after he has been in the officialdom for many years?
