Chapter 360, City Lord and City Lord’s Wife

Eric's face turned red and he spoke to Fang Hao excitedly.

"Did you see it? She winked at me. There were so many people here, but she just glanced at me. Is this a hint to me?"

My stomach, which had been somewhat relaxed, was also trying to inhale.

Make yourself look as slim as possible.

"Just take a look here, don't get so excited!" Fang Hao said.

"You didn't see, she gave me a very secretive wink." Eric imitated, proving that he was right.

Seeing that Fang Hao didn't speak, he continued to ask: "Do you think it would be better for me to invite her to dance, or sit down and chat with him?"

"I think it's better for you to stay away from her. She looks cold. It's better not to cause trouble for yourself." Fang Hao advised.

But this kind of persuasion obviously has no effect.

"You are still too young. An unforgettable encounter will make you a man overnight. Remember to seize the opportunity at any time."

Eric drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and strode towards Laurana.

On the way, he turned back and patted Fang Hao's chest.

One, look at my performance.

When Eric left, An Jiacai whispered: "Why is she here?"

Anjia doesn't know about Laurana's arrival yet.

"Hey! Forget it, it's just the dress she sent." Fang Hao said helplessly.

"You'd better pray that no one messes with her, otherwise she can kill everyone here." Anjia continued while eating a piece of pastry.

"Stop talking, I'm starting to feel guilty now."

Laurana had the ability to kill all the nobles here and walked away.

This is also what Fang Hao is worried about.

But for now, Laurana's mood is quite stable.

All the gentlemen who came forward to invite them to dance were rejected by Laurana, and there were no special circumstances.

Instead, it was Fatty Eric who approached.

Laurana glanced at Fang Hao curiously, her eyes filled with questions.

She thought Eric was arranged by Fang Hao.

Not being driven away by Laurana's blunt words, Eric further confirmed that he was different.

He looked back at Fang Hao in a show-off manner and sat down directly next to Laurana.

After just sitting for a while, Eric came back.

Returned to Fang Hao's side.

"Why are you back?" Fang Hao asked curiously.

"Men can't be too enthusiastic. They need to take it step by step. The first step is to leave a good impression on each other. That's enough." Eric shook his hair and said confidently.

Fang Hao was speechless.

But he didn't want to continue chatting on this topic, so he asked curiously: "Who is the woman next to Lei Li?"

"Huh? Do you like this kind of thing?" Eric was stunned, "That's Reilly's woman, Deborah. This woman is very crazy. I heard that anyone who sleeps with her will have to rest for several days. .”

"Ah? How dare others touch Lei Li's woman?" Fang Hao said in surprise.

"Hey! Reilly doesn't care about this. Deborah is also having fun. You can try it. Maybe you can take her away at night." Eric's voice was lowered.

Regarding the topic of Rayleigh, it is better to be as careful as possible.

Being able to reach his current position as a gangster, Rayleigh has fully demonstrated his abilities and methods.

"Forget it." Fang Hao shook his head.

While the two were talking.

The music in the hall suddenly stopped.

People walked off the dance floor and returned to their seats.

A butler in a formal dress walked onto the stage.

After lightly clapping his palms, he said loudly: "Everyone has been waiting for a long time. Please invite City Lord Aubrey and Lady Rebecca."

The music starts again.

City Lord Aubrey and Rebecca appeared together on the second floor.

But the two did not come down. Instead, they waved to everyone from a position where they could see the stage.

Wow! !

As soon as the two appeared on the stage, the whole city was in an uproar.

Aubrey wore a green gown embroidered with gold thread, while Rebecca wore a slim-fitting black evening cheongsam.

The black cheongsam fits the body perfectly.

Rebecca's mature and plump figure is fully exposed, with no trace of excess at the high point. The round hips allow the slightly tight waist of the cheongsam to reflect the curves of the waist and hips, especially the slits on both sides, which reveal the round and white jade. leg.

Beauty, charm, dignity and elegance are displayed in one woman at the same time.

Whether it’s a handsome man or a gorgeously dressed woman.

For a moment, everyone looked straight.

Unlike Rebecca's beautiful opening, City Lord Aubrey seems a bit bleak.

Coupled with his sallow complexion and sunken eye sockets, he looked like a terminally ill father standing with his daughter.

"Lord Aubrey, Lady Rebecca." Everyone in the audience saluted.

"Well, everyone, sit down and let the auction begin immediately!"

City Lord Aubrey said and took Rebecca to sit down on the second floor.

And everyone in the audience also sat back in their seats.

The butler just now came on stage again to start today's auction.

Without too many prefaces, he said directly: "Okay everyone, now we are selling the items in the first warehouse, a total of 102 oil paintings, priced at 5,000 gold coins, and the price will be increased by no less than 100 gold coins each time."

On the stage, several people immediately walked up.

He held three oil paintings in his hands as samples to show to everyone.

Two landscapes, one of a young woman.

"That woman is Davik's wife, whom I have met before." Eric introduced her in a low voice again.

"Oh!" Fang Hao nodded.

Davik….

I seem to have heard this name somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while.

But what surprised Fang Hao the most was that the auction was based on warehouses.

The types of items have been divided in advance and then sold as a whole.

This also has the feeling of opening a blind box.

It’s just that the chance of picking up something missing in the warehouse is relatively low.

After all, people watch with their eyes open, but you buy with your eyes closed.

"I'll pay, 5100!"

"5200."......

Soon, people started bidding.

Moreover, the price kept rising, and within two minutes, it had reached 10,000 gold coins.

Fang Hao himself has no artistic talent and is not very interested in paintings.

Without participating in the bidding, he whispered to Eric next to him: "Mr. Eric, let me ask you something."

"Well, tell me!"

"I'm from the outer city, and I don't understand why the city lord is still alive and Mrs. Rebecca will go to the federal parliament."

This has always been a question in Fang Hao's mind.

The roles of the city lord and the city lord’s wife seem a bit special.

Moreover, Rebecca has the right to mobilize the army in the city, which makes Fang Hao increasingly confused as to who has the final say in Lysis City.

"It's hard to talk about the City Lord's Mansion." Eric was still a little apprehensive and wanted to speak but swallowed it back.

"Talk about it, I'm just curious and won't spread it." Fang Hao promised.

Eric was already talkative, and Fang Hao reassured him.

Still unable to hold back, he began to tell the story about the City Lord's Mansion.

Rebecca is not from this city.

But he came to Lysis City when the previous old city lord was still alive.

Soon, Rebecca showed good management skills and assumed the position of administrative agent in the city.

After the old city lord's accident, it stands to reason that Rebecca would take over the position of city lord.

However, when the news of the change of city lord was delivered to the Federal Parliament, a problem arose.

The council questioned Rebecca's identity as a half-elf, believing that once faced with a choice, she would not stand unswervingly on the side of humans.

Therefore, the city lord's matter was at a stalemate for a while.

Later, a piece of news suddenly came from the City Lord's Mansion.

Rebecca married the current castellan Aubrey, with Aubrey serving as castellan.

But the core of power in the city is still in Rebecca's hands.

"I heard that the city lord and Lady Rebecca are not as close as they seem, and they rarely even talk to each other." Eric opened his mouth and kept talking.

Later, Fang Hao didn't ask.

Eric said everything he knew and heard.

After Fang Hao listened carefully, he subconsciously glanced at City Lord Aubrey.

Then he saw that the woman next to Riley was ogling Aubrey from time to time.

"Oh, that's it." Fang Hao nodded and said.

No wonder Rebecca mobilized all the troops in the city with just one word.

She is the core of power in the city. The council questioned her identity and supported a city lord.

As the two talked, the painting in the warehouse was finally bought by a nobleman for 10,500 gold coins.

The first warehouse sold more than 10,000 gold coins, and the auctioneer also showed joy.

Immediately afterwards, the auction of the items in the second warehouse began.

This is a warehouse of high-end utensils, porcelain cups, lampstands and other items, in large quantities.

After bidding all the way, it was finally sold for 20,000 yuan.

"Okay, here are the items in the third warehouse. There are 56 collections here, including 37 artifacts, 13 paintings and calligraphy, 5 sculptures, and 1 specimen. The starting price is 10,000 gold coins. No increase in price is allowed each time. Less than 100 pieces." The auctioneer introduced loudly.

The person behind him once again brought up three display items.

A huge two-meter-long oil painting, an animal sculpture, and a thin-edged knife made of bright silver.

When he saw this familiar weapon, Fang Hao frowned instantly.

Xiaoyou's crime-mitigating weapon series.

He looked at Xiaoyou, but the other person didn't look away and still stood silently behind Lei Li.

He was not interested in any of the collections in this warehouse, nor did he have the ability to appreciate them.

But he must get this mitigating weapon.

There is mutuality between lords and heroes. Heroes serve the lords, and Fang Hao must also support and train them.

Every crime-mitigating weapon will significantly improve Xiaoyou's level.

Therefore, he must buy this warehouse.

Even the rest of the stuff is just a pile of junk.

"10100." Near the front, a man made the first bid.

"10200."

"10300."

..."80500."

As the price reached 80,500, the price increases began to stop.

It seems that this batch of goods is only worth 80,000 gold coins in the hearts of everyone.

Seeing that no one spoke, Fang Hao also started calling out the price, "81,000."

Suddenly someone made an offer from behind.

Everyone turned around and looked behind.

Eric's face froze for a moment, he smiled awkwardly and pointed at Fang Hao.

It means that the price he quoted has nothing to do with him.

"81500."

The man who quoted before Fang Hao continued to raise the price and added another 500.

"82000." Fang Hao increased the price.

The man looked at Fang Hao seriously and raised the price again, "82,500."

At the same time, he said: "I only like two of the art paintings, but they are only worth this price. If you continue to increase the price, little brother, then I will give them to you."
