Lao Jiang's opening remarks shocked the entire underground auction. Within a few seconds, there were probably hundreds of looks directed at him!
Immediately afterwards, the host came to us with two waiters. Wearing a well-tailored suit, the host asked politely: "I wonder if the distinguished guests will get married now, or will our people come to your house to pick them up? "
Lao Jiang didn't look like someone who could immediately withdraw ten thousand yuan. I thought to myself that Qilin should have a small treasury in Shanghai, right?
The waiter was holding the plates and waiting for us. I was also looking forward to Lao Jiang's performance. Unexpectedly, Lao Jiang pointed a finger at me: "My apprentice will pay for this. You can go to him!"
The waiter looked at me with a smile, floating in front of me like a wandering spirit. At that moment, I was stunned. I looked at Lao Jiang and then at them.
Embarrassed, he took out a few silver coins from his pocket and placed them on the plate.
The huge iron plate immediately made a crisp clang sound, one, two, three, a total of three silver coins.
The waiter was startled for a moment, then covered his face with a handkerchief and said with a smile, "This distinguished guest is so humorous."
Am I kidding?
But now I have so much ocean all over my body. I grit my teeth and stare at Lao Jiang. I wish I could bully my master and destroy my ancestors right now. How can I be such a master? Every time I force him to pretend, I say harsh words to make him quit. , but pushed the apprentice into the fire pit!
If looks could kill, Lao Jiang would have been beaten to death by me.
"Old Jiang, stop making trouble!" He Lanxue's voice as clear as a mountain spring saved me. Only then did I have time to wipe off the big beads of sweat on my forehead. I could see clearly just now that there were countless Hongmen ambushing me on both sides of the auction. The swordsman.
If it weren't for the host holding them down, they would have charged over long ago.
At this time, Lao Jiang finally took back his joking expression and said to the host: "The clay figurine stays, please come back."
The waiter placed the plate squarely in front of Lao Jiang. He was obviously smiling, but his words contained a layer of warning: "These distinguished guests have weighed it carefully. Looking at the beach, no one dares to have a night party!"
Lao Jiang stretched out his right hand and suddenly opened the corner of his clothes, revealing a black scabbard. His speed was so fast that in the blink of an eye, the black knife was slapped into the iron plate: " Go and ask your master, is my black sword worth ten thousand yuan?"
Maybe it was because the behavior of the few of us was too mysterious, or maybe it was Lao Jiang's skill that shocked them, or maybe it was the strange black knife.
With a formidable power.
In short, the host did not have any doubts, but asked us to wait here for a while while he went to ask the boss for instructions.
Two other waiters blocked our table one after another, as if they were worried that we would run away.
Lao Jiang drank the tea leisurely and asked me to take a few more sips: "The tea used here is all good. If you don't drink it, it will be wasted."
Thinking about how I cheated my apprentice just now, I snorted angrily and didn't bother to talk to him.
I just didn't expect the host to come back so quickly. He was almost panting and trotting back.
First, he anxiously gestured to all the Hongmen killers who were ambushing on both sides to retreat, and then respectfully handed the black knife back to Lao Jiang with both hands, not forgetting to include the statue of Gandharva as well. Offer.
Lao Jiang took the black knife with a smile, hung it back on his waist with a click, and then threw the Gandharva statue to me, asking me to keep it safe.
"Now do you know how much Master's face is worth?"
Lao Jiang shamelessly showed off his power to me, and the host next to him said out of breath: "Master didn't expect these distinguished guests to arrive so soon. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
Yin Ling'er twitched her lips: "Humph, isn't this thing just prepared for us? If we come a step late, it will be an advantage for others."
"You are worrying too much about this. Since we dare to put it up for auction, we naturally have a perfect plan to protect it." The host's words surprised me a little, but he continued: "By the way, the master also wants to invite the distinguished guests to the back hall to talk about it. ”
Lao Jiang accepted it generously, glanced at his watch and said, "Just in time for a meal."
We followed a trail under the guidance of the host. Unexpectedly, the winding path led to a quiet place, and suddenly we became enlightened.
Hidden behind the auction is actually a garden with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, rockery stone carvings, and Western fountains.
There was also a stage set up in the center of the garden. On the stage, a beautiful woman in pink and green costume was learning to sing from a master.
The woman raised her orchid finger, her voice was soft and feminine, and her singing voice was melodious and charming. She sang "Du Shiniang Angered and Sinked the Treasure Chest" to great effect!
I couldn't help but applaud. When the woman saw us coming, she actually walked off the stage.
"I didn't expect that the owner of the nightclub, the leader of the Hongmen, who would make Shanghai become so angry, turned out to be a beautiful girl..."
I sighed sincerely, and the woman laughed heartily after hearing this: "Just now my little brother said that this little brother is very funny, but I didn't expect that he is really funny."
At that moment, I was stunned. The woman actually had a man's voice?
I looked at Lao Jiang, who suppressed a smile, and then introduced me: "This is Zhang Baiju. Although he is extremely rich, he loves singing most in his life. He is one of the famous Western Young Masters of the Republic of China! This is Li Jing Lan, my new disciples are all from my own family.”
My own family?
Could it be that he was also organized by Qilin?
Zhang Baiju glanced at Lao Jiang with a gentle look on his face: "We haven't seen you for so long, but you still like to throw your black knife around. What's the matter, do you want to change it?"
"Aren't I throwing stones to ask for directions? You must know I'm coming when you look at the knife." Old Jiang Tian replied shamelessly.
Zhang Baiju looked at He Lanxue again: "Sister Xi is still like a bunch of cold plums. She doesn't like to laugh, but no one has changed."
Yin Ling'er took the initiative to introduce herself, saying that she was He Lanxue's apprentice. She had never met Zhang Baiju before, and asked him if he was Yin Lin or Jin Lin.
It seems that Yin Ling'er wants to overpower Zhang Baiju just like she did with me!
But He Lanxue's words were not shocking and she continued to die: "No, Mr. Zhang, like Master, me, and your Uncle Jiang, are all black-sword unicorns! The difference is that we rely on going to the tomb to fight, while Mr. Zhang relies on spending a lot of money. ”
"He is Qilin's God of Wealth. He pays for Qilin's intelligence network spread all over the world. He is even responsible for half of the food, drink and diarrhea. In other words, if you can add a big chicken drumstick every time, it is because of it. The light of the prince.”
At that moment, I clearly saw the look in Yin Ling'er's eyes, which was the impression of being overwhelmed by money.
"Brother Zhang, no wonder I saw you glowing with gold when I came in just now. It turns out it's the smell of money." This is the first time I've seen Yin Linger's mouth be so sweet. I don't know if it's because of the big chicken legs. .
Zhang Baiju was made to laugh and cry by Yin Ling'er. After a while, he asked the waiter to take us to the side room first, and then he would come over to have dinner with us after he took off his makeup.
There are several plum trees planted in the yard of the wing. It is the dead of winter at this time, and the cold plum blossoms are blooming proudly in the snow. They are white with a little red, just like the unbroken backbone of the Chinese people.
Passing through the cloister is the dining area.
The ancient windows are propped up, and you can have a good view of the courtyard from inside the house.
The food was served very quickly, first a few cold dishes, then hot dishes, including 'Eight Treasure Duck', 'Songjiang Bass', 'Portuguese Chicken', 'German Steak', etc., all prepared by local famous chefs and Made by a Western chef.
After the dishes were served, Zhang Baiju also came gracefully. He put on a moon-white gown, with picturesque eyebrows, a straight nose, and neatly combed back hair, making him look like a slender young man.
Zhang Baiju also had a folding fan with five blessings in his hand. He closed the folding fan, put the fan head against his palm and said, "Xiaosheng, you're late..."
If he was a first-class beauty actor in green clothes and pink daisy before, then now he is a suave and noble nobleman with a feminine aura in his every move.
It reminds me of the riddle that Lao Jiang played before. If you want to meet an actor, ask for an eagle.
Now it seems that the actor is referring to Zhang Baiju.
After Zhang Baiju sat down, Lao Jiang toasted him with a glass of wine. It was a fine French dry red, with a fruity aroma but not intoxicating: "This trip has troubled Mr. Zhang. Thanks to Mr. Zhang for your help, we were able to get the wine so smoothly. To the statue of Da Po, do it first to show respect.”
The two of them clinked their wine glasses together and drank it all in one gulp.
Lao Jiang stood up again, and was about to offer Zhang Baiju a second drink, but Zhang Baiju stopped him with a smile: "You, I don't know yet, so there's no need for wine. I already have an idea of what you asked me to inquire about." ”
"Oh? Is that god in Shanghai?" Lao Jiang was also the first to ask the question.
When I heard this, I immediately thought of the so-called eagle that Lao Jiang said he wanted to invite.
Zhang Baiju nodded and said softly: "It's true that he is in Shanghai, but if you want to see him, you probably have to spend some effort, because he is still squatting in Tilanqiao Prison in the British Concession."
"That place is not my Hongmen territory."
"What? In prison? Is there anyone in this world who dares to pluck the hair from Mr. Diao's head?" Lao Jiang was dumbfounded and asked Zhang Baiju what was going on.
Zhang Baiju smiled bitterly and said: "Who doesn't know Mr. Diao's temper? Let alone arrest him, we don't even dare to touch him. It's just that the old immortal walked into the prison on his own initiative."
The patrol room didn't dare not accept him, let alone neglect him, so he could only serve him like an ancestor with fine clothes and fine food every day!
And this so-called Eagle Master is the eagle that Lao Jiang calls, the person we need to invite.
