Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

She clearly knew that those who tried to get to the bottom of this would die very quickly.    

Xiao Yun was an extraordinary person. Whenever such a person was around, he would always be accompanied by extraordinary things.    

Some ordinary people should not involve themselves in this matter.    

They wouldn't even allow him to "know."    

A gold note was used to serve a person. The brothel keeper thought for a long time but still couldn't think of how to spend all the money.    

Perhaps it was possible in the capital, but it was really not possible here.    

The three of them were quickly taken away by the girls.    

Those who liked to drink would naturally have good wine. Those who liked to listen to music would naturally have endless songs to listen to.    

If they wanted to do something else, no one would reject the temptation of a gold bar.    

Xiao Yun, on the other hand, still sat in the hall.    

The main hall looked more like a teahouse.    

It was a wonderful decoration.    

It was reasonable to say that since this was a brothel, it was almost impossible to eat in a teahouse.    

Even if they were to eat, it would be a private room. Only then could they allow a group of people to play around.    

If it was placed in the main hall...    

There were very few people who had such hobbies.    

However, there were more than a dozen tables here.    

In the evening, other than the few tables beside Xiao Yun, which were marked as "reserved tables," the brothel keeper had emptied them. The rest of the tables were filled with people.    

It was strange that a city that had fallen into decline could be so lively.    

The brothel keeper stood beside him and explained in a low voice, "Young Master, our Smoke Cloud House has also started an auction because of the lack of business. After all, this is a border city, and there are many things that we don't have in other places. "    

It was obvious from her words.    

There were some prohibited items here!    

The fact that the brothel keeper was able to reveal the truth about this stranger, Xiao Yun, proved how successful Xiao Yun's previous efforts were.    

Auction?    

Xiao Yun was interested.    

He preferred this kind of thing.    

He turned to look at the brothel keeper and stretched out his hand. "Sit down. Standing here, there will always be people greeting you, making me restless."    

"Then... I'll offend you"    

Sitting down was also an affront.    

At least it was like this here.    

The food on Xiao Yun's table was the best.    

And judging from the position, Xiao Yun was already sitting at the main table, facing the high platform in the middle.    

If it was during the prosperous times, there would be singing and dancing here.    

At this moment, it was very spacious and did not have any attire.    

There was only an old man who was somewhat nervous, taking a deep breath, standing by the side of the stage, nodding and smiling at the people around him from time to time.    

This should be the person hosting the auction.    

However, Xiao Yun was a little concerned about his nervousness.    

"Will there be some very powerful people coming here?"    

"This... I don't know."    

The procuress told the truth.    

Xiao Yun was puzzled. "Even you don't know?"    

The procuress sighed and said with a bitter face, "Some people are very mysterious when they come. It can be seen that they are different from others. But we really can't know their identity. Many people only participate in this auction. They don't eat flower wine, and they don't even drink tea. They would leave here, and the things they sold were also very strange. I don't even know what is inside. In the end, they were bought at a high price. It is very strange. "    

The procuress took advantage of the time before she left to remove her heavy makeup. At this moment, it was just a light makeup. Compared to before, it was much more pleasing to the eye.    

Xiao Yun nodded and said," It seems like the water here is very deep. It's better that you don't understand it. "    

"Of course I know. The more I know, the faster I die."    

"Hehe, don't always die. It's better to live well than anything else."    

Xiao Yun turned his head and looked at the venue.    

Because the middle-aged man had already walked onto the stage.    

He made a bow in all directions and said in a clear voice, "Esteemed guests and friends, young masters, I am Hai Qinghe, and some people are familiar with me. Some people just saw me and took up some of your time. He introduced himself. The people in the pugilistic world gave them face and gave them the nickname of 'Eight Faced Golden Gong'. Again! Because of the contributions made by his ancestors, he received the title of Marquis of Liaoyuan. Although he was in the last phase, he still had some connections and assets. We have gained some reputation over the years, and we have also relied on everyone's kindness! "    

After he finished speaking, he cupped his hands again.    

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree.    

If he revealed his name, it would be easy for him to trust others.    

Then, he waved his hand.    

Immediately, someone brought a table over and placed it on the platform. They even squatted down and used hammers and nails to place the table on the platform. They pushed the table a few times, but it did not fall down. Only then did they withdraw.    

Immediately, another person carried something up and lightly placed a box on the table.    

Then, he retreated.    

The Eight-Faced Golden Gong Hai Qinghe cupped his hands towards the crowd and said, "Let's not talk nonsense anymore. Today is the first time we bid a treasure. It's an item from the northeast. It took a great deal of effort to obtain it. As a result, we lost a few lives, and the price is now thirty taels. If you're interested, you can start bidding. "    

These words stunned Xiao Yun.    

What the hell?    

The auction had started just like that?    

Not to mention the fact that there was no introduction to the item, he didn't even mention what it was.    

Whether it was food or water, whether it was used or wore, how big it was, how color it was, and nothing at all.    

In the end, he got someone to spend money to buy it?    

He even wanted to auction it?    

Xiao Yun frowned.    

Could it be that the people of the North Wei also like to open blind boxes?    

In his previous life, in his previous life, gambling was forbidden in the Central Plains, but it was also the best gambler in the world, so someone made a blind box.    

The principle was not much different from betting on dice.    

It was just that back then, this kind of thing was definitely a small gamble to make one happy. The people who played it did not expect any profit. It was nothing more than whether or not they could develop a style that they liked.    

However, it was not enough for the rich to get involved. Once they played, they would naturally inject their "pocket money" into it. The pocket money of the rich was often enough to change the fate of an ordinary person.    

Naturally, some bad things were born.    

People in different circles would naturally have some problems when they suddenly blended into the same circle.    

However, that was just gossip.    

Looking at this blind box of the Northern Wei, Xiao Yun really couldn't make heads or tails of it.    

It could be considered a coincidence.    

He thought in his heart, no one would really start bidding right now, right?    

But before he could figure it out, the price had already been raised to 1,000 taels after several shouts!    

30 taels to 1000 taels.    

This was rarely seen in auctions.    

Xiao Yun turned his head in confusion.    

The man who had bid from six hundred taels per step to one thousand taels, almost doubling the price, was a man who seemed to be from the pugilistic world.    

He was dressed in black, with a sword hanging from his waist and a bamboo hat on his head. Behind him were two strong guards, and he was shaking the teacup in his hand as if he was very relaxed.    

Xiao Yun was not the only one looking at him at the same time.    

Everyone in the hall was actually looking at him.    

Some of the people in the hall had terrifying hostility in their eyes.    

Xiao Yun tilted his head and asked in a low voice, "Don't they want to bid in the private room? If they were seen by others, they would buy something, but what would they do when they went out? Aren't they worried that they will be robbed? "    

The procuress shook her head and said:" Young Master, you don't need to worry. Generally, people who spend a lot of money. No one dares to make a move in the city even after leaving this door. I think gongzi saw it when he came. Sooner or later, there will be soldiers patrolling in the city. It's rather dense. "    

"That's true. Then what about leaving the city?"    

"They will spend quite a lot of money to get the army to protect them. No matter where they go, it seems like they will be able to send them over."    

Xiao Yun was shocked.    

Then he nodded.    

Ask the army to escort him? On one hand, the army's combat strength was high, and ordinary people were no match for them. On the other hand, their reputation was more important.    

Presumably, no one would directly attack the army of the Northern Wei just because of a few goods. Once they attacked, it would mean that they had offended the Royal Court of the Northern Wei!    

However, Xiao Yun couldn't help but ask curiously, "Did I miss something earlier? Could it be that they really don't know what's inside? Why did they bid so casually?"    

The procuress looked around, gritted her teeth, and lowered her voice even lower.    

"Young Master, actually, I have always suspected that those people who bought it actually know what's inside. It's just that they used some kind of secret language between them. Only we outsiders don't know about it."    

Xiao Yun said, "In other words, although this seems strange and strange, it's actually some kind of private transaction?"
