Invitation letter folded in half.
In addition to the pure Chinese "invitation letter", there are three other languages under it. Liang Si only knows the second line of English and has never seen the third line of text.
Liang Si had received many invitations, both young and old, and this was the first time he saw invitations with languages from other countries on the cover.
Beside her, Duan Yan paused for a moment and remembered something: "Junior sister, open it!"
Without his reminder, Liang Si was also curious about the invitation letter written in three languages and had already opened it.
The internal design of the invitation letter is similar to other invitation letters. The top part is in Chinese, and the bottom two lines are in two other foreign languages.
Not speaking the following two languages, the biggest among them is obviously Chinese. Liang Si knows every word, but together, Liang Si doesn't recognize them.
"This... is not," Liang Si turned to Duan Yan, couldn't help closing his eyes, and then opened them again, "Senior Brother Duan, is this... true?"
Duan Yan took a deep breath and looked at the text on the invitation—
Distinguished guests
Hello!
Thank you for your support of the Jingcheng Auction House. We will launch an eight-level auction at the Jingcheng headquarters...
The following time will officially start at 7 o'clock tomorrow night. The location is the Beijing Auction House Headquarters on the fifth underground floor near Federal Street. Not to mention Liang Si, even Duan Yan was shocked by the invitation.
"No one dares to joke about the invitation to the eighth-level auction." No one else knew this invitation, but Duan Yan definitely recognized it.
Before that, Duan Yan searched for information on the invitation letter through various channels. The Duan family also tried their best to get him to go, but they couldn't buy one on the underground network.
The eighth-level auction is not a small fight, it is a stage for all forces to demonstrate their magical powers.
Even if Feng Xiu wants to go, he has to fight for a place in the Xiang Association, let alone Duan Yan.
Liang Si looked up, spent a few minutes recovering his movements, and then called Meng Fu on WeChat.
Meng Fu answered the phone quickly. Liang Si looked at the invitation carefully and swallowed, "Junior sister, are you giving this invitation to the auction to me?"
Meng Fu leaned against the car door and said in a lazy voice, "Don't you want it?"
"What about you?" Liang Si asked quietly.
Meng Fu's tone remained unhurried: "I have other ways. You can bring one more person with this invitation letter."
Meng Fu reminded Liang Si that she had asked Yu Wen, and what Yu Wen left for Meng Fu was a VIP invitation letter, which could bring one person in.
After the two of them finished speaking, they hung up the phone, and Liang Si relayed Meng Fu's words to Duan Yan.
Duan Yan lowered his head and looked at the area on Liang Si's invitation—
Area A.
At the capital auction venue, except for a few big families and powerful forces who had special boxes, the rest of the casual crowd was in the auditorium.
"Senior brother," Liang Si coughed, then looked at Duan Yan, "Didn't you say that the road is blocked today?"
Duan Yan was not so sure at this time.
The two looked at each other, and it was obvious that even Duan Yan was in a daze.
**
Here, several major roads are jointly blocked.
The blockade was invited by the Military Association. The other families didn't know what forces the Military Association invited, but judging from the strength of the Military Association, they were not normal people.
For the safety of ordinary people, two major roads were blocked.
The accommodation for foreign guests is arranged by the auction house, and the main road is closed all the way to the entrance of Federal Street.
Su Di drove to the intersection and let him go without even taking out his patrol card. Su Di was driving his own car. The Su family even arranged the car number and knew the person blocking the road.
The car went all the way to Jianghe Courtyard.
Those who hadn't arrived stayed, and Meng Fu saw Su Cheng by the small artificial lake in the community.
He stood by the green belt. Only his profile could be seen from this direction. It was nearly six o'clock, and the setting sun was as red as fire. The faint aura of indifference on his body was extremely obvious. He stood with the backlight, looking down at Dabai who had got into the flower bed. Goose, broken hair obscured his brows, and his profile looked extremely cold.
Meng Fu asked Su Di to stop the car.
Come closer.
"Dabai, come out." Meng Fu walked in, raised his foot, and kicked the goose's butt.
Only Dabai's butt could be seen from this direction. Its feathers trembled before it burrowed inside again.
The goose looked scared.
Meng Fu paused, tilted his head, and asked modestly: "Brother Cheng, is it..."
Su Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly and saw Meng Fu coming over, pointing his slender and clean fingers at his trousers, and said lightly: "It has a guilty conscience."
His voice has always been a little low, but his temperament is cold, which makes it very comfortable to listen to.
Meng Fu lowered his head and looked over.
Su Cheng is wearing off-white casual pants today. His clothes have always been light-colored. Now there is an obvious goose paw print on the left side of the off-white casual pants. The water stain next to it should have dried up, leaving an obvious mark. trace.
There is an artificial lake in the community, which is the source of happiness for Goose every day.
The goose was used to being domineering in the village, and was not afraid of adults or children. It was used to being arrogant, and it calmed down for a while. When Su Cheng called it back, it flapping a little, not only splashing the water on its wings to Su Cheng's body also left distinctive marks on his pants.
At that moment, Goose knew for the first time what it meant to be in heaven one second and hell in the next.
He buried his head directly into the green belt next to him and pretended to be dead.
It's good that Su Cheng can slip it away, so naturally he won't reach out to hug it, and he will just freeze here.
"Go back and clip its wings," Su Cheng looked at Meng Fu, thought for a moment, and suggested to Meng Fu in a slow tone, "It flies too fast and can't escape easily."
Hearing this sentence, the goose finally moved.
It hurriedly came out, swaying its body, spreading its two beautiful wings, raising its graceful neck, and gave a "ouch" to Meng Fu.
The goose is very popular in the village because it looks like its owner, has good looks, and its feathers are as white as snow. It feels like silk and satin, and reflects slightly in the sun. It is extremely beautiful.
Even the rough Yang Hua didn't want to cut its hair.
"Okay, let's find someone to cut it when we get back." Meng Fu didn't think there was anything wrong with the goose's wings at first, but now after listening to Su Cheng's words, he felt that the goose's wings seemed a bit too long.
She hadn't seen the goose for several days, and originally wanted to carry it upstairs. Su Cheng simply said that it had stepped on his own excrement, and Meng Fu gave up the idea completely.
Then he lowered his head and looked at Goose earnestly, "You are already a mature goose, don't urinate anywhere."
Goose who didn’t know when he defecated everywhere said: “…???”
Grandma, it wants to go home.

Friday.
Today's traffic is even more serious than yesterday. The two roads are not closed, but there is a police car parked on each street, and two armed police officers patrol the roadside.
The armed policemen looked different from ordinary people at first glance, and ordinary people were panicked.
An old community in Beijing.
Xu Mohua changed his little yellow clothes and put on casual clothes, ready to rest. In his pocket, his cell phone rang. It was Yu Wen: "Boss, the auction house said that the surveillance at the north gate guarded by the square team seems to be out of control." The problem is, they are afraid something will happen today, so you should come and take a look."
"Isn't it enough to have her in charge?" Xu Moyou got up from the bed, remembering that even mask didn't know Meng Fu would be there today, and picked up his little yellow hat again, "Okay, I'll be right there."
She put on her work clothes and went out.
Outside, Xu's mother looked at Xu Moyou, "Are you working overtime tonight?"
Xu Moyou said "hmm".
"Don't go out?" Mother Xu looked outside the door, "I heard that there are armed police on the streets of Beijing today. People in the community are saying that they are afraid that there is a murderer. They will take a day off tonight or resign directly. You The job that third aunt found for you..."
Ordinary people are a little scared when they see armed police, even if there is a police car parked on the road, let alone an armed police car parked on every road.
"Don't listen to their nonsense," Xu Mohua consoled him perfunctorily, "Today is a routine inspection."
Regardless of whether Xu's mother believed it or not, after she finished speaking, she put the hat on her head, took the key and left.
"Hey -" Xu's mother looked at her leaving figure and called her from behind.
Inside the door, Father Xu held his mobile phone and said excitedly: "Come here quickly, Xinxin is back after making a video call."
I heard from my eldest daughter
The auction starts at seven o'clock.
At five o'clock, people started to enter the venue.
At six o'clock, Liang Si and Duan Yan also arrived at the door. Duan Yan drove Liang Si here by himself.
The invitation letter was given to Liang Si by Meng Fu. Duan Yan is the senior brother of the class and has always been responsible for the class. Liang Si did not consider bringing his own family. After asking Meng Fu's opinion, he came directly with Duan Yan.
The whole building of the auction house is very grand, and several special items of today are scrolling on the thinking projection screen at the door.
Liang Si came to the auction house for the first time. She stood at the gate of the auction house, looked up at the magnificent and advanced building, and was very amazed.
"This is just the gate. The underground auction house has opened on the eighth-level auction site. Let's go in first." Duan Yan raised his feet and went to the door with Liang Si.
Many people were queuing up at the door, waiting for inspection one by one.
The people who came to the auction house tonight were either rich or noble. If something happened, let alone the auction house, the whole capital would not be able to bear it. The security check was very meticulous.
Liang Si is queuing up.
Not far behind, a female voice called Duan Yan.
When the two turned around, they saw Xu Wei and Ni Qing.
All three of them had staff signs on their chests.
As for Feng Xiu, Xie Yi and others, they should go to the box with Xiang Xie.
This is the importance of "power" and connections in Beijing.
"Senior Brother Duan, I heard from Feng Yuan Zhang that you don't want to come to the first class?" Ni Qing glanced at the two of them, paused, and then said: "I advise you to come if you can. The second class is not a long-term solution. You can tell by looking at this auction, can Professor Fengzhi let you in? "
From her tone, she seemed to know something.
Duan Yan's tone towards her was also quite cold. It should be said that he treated everyone like this, "No, thank you."
"Senior Brother Duan, just pretend to be noble," the people around Xu Wei couldn't help laughing, "Then you just watch from outside, the three of us will go in first."
As long as you are a perfumer, you will attach great importance to today's auction. Many well-connected people in the entire perfumery department will do anything for this ticket. Duan Yan even treated Ni Qing to dinner twice and asked About her uncle.
Ni Qing also looked at Duan Yan apologetically, and then went in with the other two people.
At this time, Liang Si's team arrived. She looked towards Duan Yan, held up the invitation letter in her hand and said, "Senior Brother Duan, come here for security check!"
"Here we come." Duan Yan's face was calm. He nodded slightly to Ni Qing and others, and then walked in the direction of Liang Si.
Liang Si showed the invitation letter to the staff for inspection, then passed the security check and entered the auction venue directly.
The backs of the two disappeared at the entrance of the passage. The smile on the boy's face that had just spoken froze. He turned back and looked at the other two people, "How did they get the invitation?"
The eighth-level auction venue, Area A, is in good order.
"Hahahaha, junior sister, didn't you see their faces just now..." Liang Si went to Meng Fu who came to see them to recreate the scene just now.
Meng Fu took a piece of candy from the table, peeled it open, threw it into his mouth, and listened slowly.
"Little junior sister, look upstairs," Liang Si pointed to the second floor and said to Meng Fu: "It's full of boxes for those big families and big forces. I don't know how many super powers there are today. Doga Luoxiang and the others must be the buyers. ”
Meng Fu raised his head, looked at the box, and nodded.
Make a fortune.
When she and Su Xian came in, they saw Liang Si and Duan Yan, who came to say hello. There was a mix of dragons and snakes on the scene today. Meng Fu was afraid that something would happen to them. "World, you and senior brother are watching. If you need anything, call me." Telephone."
"Okay, you go about your business." Liang Si waved to Meng Fu, "I'll see senior sister buy you something later."
**
Second floor, private room.
After Meng Fu told Liang Si, he came to see Su Xian. As the leader of the ancient martial arts world, the Su family reserved a box with the best view all year round. You could see the auction house when you lowered your head.
The second elder and Su Tian are both there.
Seeing Meng Fu come in, the second elder greeted Meng Fu very politely, "Miss Meng."
He also became familiar with Meng Fu.
Su Xian pointed to another old man and introduced: "This is Manager Su."
"Hello." Meng Fu said politely.
Manager Su had heard Meng Fu's name more than once, especially when Su Huang said that she was the number one scholar this year. When Manager Su was a child, a number one scholar would definitely have a glorious family background.
He smiled politely at Meng Fu, "Hello, Miss Meng. I heard that you are currently attending classes at Beijing University?"
"Yeah." Meng Fu replied one by one.
"It's great to be young." Manager Su looked at Meng Fu and smiled.
Meng Fu nodded, and sat down in Su Xian's corner, listening to their conversation as an invisible person.
Su Cheng is in charge of order in the capital today. In the entire capital, except for the Military Association, he is the only one who can control the situation.
"I heard that even the president of the Military Association came out to calm things down today." After greeting Meng Fu and others, Manager Su and others couldn't help but sigh with the others, "I wonder if we can see her, and the two vice-presidents." , the Military Association dispatched three elite teams to guard it, and even the square team was dispatched... "
Su Tian had been standing by the window sill, looking down at the people walking below without blinking, for fear of missing the people coming and going.
Hearing this, he tilted his head slightly, slightly surprised: "Fang team?"
Team Fang, the first special management team in the capital, generally involves matters involving several major families. Ordinary police do not dare to deal with them, so they leave them to them. The major families respect the first special management team very much.
As they talked, they had no intention of avoiding Meng Fu. They probably thought that even if Meng Fu listened, he probably didn't understand these internal forces very well.
Not only that, last week, it became known to everyone that the square team replaced the power of the Minister of Security.
Meng Fu also raised his head slightly when he heard the familiar name.
Su Xian was also a little surprised when she saw Meng Fu beside her also raising his head. She poured Meng Fu a cup of tea and explained to Meng Fu: "Team Fang is the captain of a special independent department. He has countless capable people. The most famous one is a hacker who was once on the Skynet rankings... It’s troublesome to explain, but you know, it’s a very famous and authoritative world ranking.”
Meng Fu nodded, "...Yeah."
"The top ten hackers in the world were once ranked. Although the list has not yet been determined, they have also accumulated a reputation." Su Xian poured a cup of tea for Meng Fu, "So some of our families will give Team Fang face."
Meng Fu nodded. She should be talking about Ruize. The opponent's skills were indeed good, but not very dense.
"That's right," Steward Su and Mr. Su Chang couldn't help but said, sitting across from them, "They were even invited by the Military Association. This scene only happens once in ten years..."
As he was talking, there was a knock on the door and the square team came in.
Behind him were two men.
Talking about Cao Cao, when Cao Cao arrived, Manager Su and Su Xian stood up quickly, very surprised, "Fang team?"
Shouldn't he be looking after the auction items at this time
Su Tian kept looking out the window. He wanted to see if the two vice-presidents would come out today. When he heard "square team", he turned around with a serious look on his face and said, "square team."
The team was in a hurry, with some sweat on their foreheads. He didn't pay attention. He looked past them and fell on Meng Fu who was drinking tea behind him. He wiped the sweat from his head and took a deep breath: "Miss Meng, we finally found it." is you!"
Meng Fu poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, "Speak slowly, don't be anxious, what's wrong?"
