The auction house had its own rules, but to put it bluntly, the one with the most money was the real boss.
What she wanted was not to let the world know the wealth of the Gong family, but to let the world know how domineering the Gong family was.
"I see."
Gong Bin and Gong San were very perceptive. They understood Gong Ya's intention as soon as she made her move.
They could buy the sword at any price, but she had to decide how to buy it.
"Is there anyone else who will offer a higher price than the Gong family?"
Lu Feng's words caused everyone to have some thoughts.
They had watched the whole process of the bidding between the Gong family and the Yu family.
They thought that the Gong family was just an arrow at the end of its flight, but they didn't expect that they would be so generous.
They couldn't help but shift their attention to the Yu family, who had been fighting so fiercely just now.
Yu Kui's good mood just now only lasted for a moment.
Who would have thought that those little bastards still wouldn't give up!
"Master, do we still follow?"
Yu Kui thought about it in a low voice, and a fierce look appeared on his face.
However, just as he was about to raise the price, he heard someone speaking outside.
"Mr. Lu, I find it very boring to bid like this every year. I wonder if we can change the way we play. "
Her voice was clear, but her tone had the unique softness of a woman, which stood out among the men.
He raised his head and looked at the only stand where the women could show their faces.
Gong Ya leaned against the carved railing of the stand, looking a little dispirited.
"You're right, Miss Gong. But I don't know what you think, Miss Gong."
Lu Feng smiled gently. He was a tactful person and would not easily offend the guests.
She seemed to be a little distressed. After thinking for a while, she said softly,
"I don't care about others. But from now on, our Gong Family, no matter what we bid for, whether we succeed or not, the silver will all belong to you. "
Even Lu Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
The woman reached out, took out a banknote worth a thousand taels from the sandalwood box next to her, and threw it down casually.
"However, once the Gong Family makes a bid, everyone who is competing with us will have to abide by this rule. Who dares not to play now? "
She smiled lightly and glanced at the open windows.
She would show them what it meant to squander money like dirt.
Lu Feng thought for a while and replied with a smile.
"Miss Gong is indeed intelligent. However, allow me to report this matter to my master and let him make a decision. I hope Miss Gong can forgive me. "
Lin Mengya nodded and pouted her lips. She seemed to be a little dissatisfied.
"Go. Sigh, to say that men are broad-minded, I think it's just a facade."
Both upstairs and downstairs were pricked by her words.
Other than the Gong family, which family was not led by a man?
They had originally thought that they were the most distinguished and intelligent people in the aristocratic families. Even when they came up with the idea to have fun, they were all the world's first class playboys. However, they didn't expect that in the eyes of a woman, they were nothing at all.
Their advantages were all trampled under the feet of a woman. How could the pride of these men give up so easily?
Therefore, those people were secretly hoping that a man would come out and suppress that woman's frivolity, so that she would know that in this world, the words of men called the shots.
Lin Mengya knew what kind of reaction she would get if she brought it up.
Unfortunately, she didn't care to show off.
Instead, she turned around and looked at her five brothers.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
The five sons of the Gong family were completely dumbfounded.
They didn't know what was going on in their little sister's little head.
"Little, little sister, shouldn't we discuss this matter?"
Gong Bin felt that there seemed to be cold sweat dripping down from his collar.
He had traveled all over the world, heard and seen many things.
However, he had rarely seen such a prodigal method of killing a thousand people while sacrificing eight hundred people.
"Why should we discuss it? Brother, don't worry. We can afford it. "
Lin Mengya smiled indifferently. It turned out that the feeling of being a rich man was so great.
"No, that's not what I mean. I mean, it's not necessary to do this, is it?"
"What is this? This is not an auction, but a game of throwing money!"
Lin Mengya knew that her eldest brother's meticulous and calculating spirit was coming out again.
"Alas, why should a man be so virtuous?"
"Brother, do you think I look like the kind of person who is stupid and easy to cheat with money?"
She tilted her head and smiled with her eyes narrowed.
For some reason, when Gong Bin saw the look in her eyes, he automatically swallowed the word "yes" back into his stomach.
"Don't worry, I'm not playing with fire. I'm fanning the fire. Do you really think that the Rong family and the Xu family have the ability to buy so many things? "
Lin Mengya raised her eyelids and said something ambiguous.
However, whether he could understand and how to understand it depended on his talent.
She turned around and looked down at the audience.
Almost everyone thought that she was crazy, but those who should be sober must know what she was doing.
Soon, Lu Feng appeared in front of everyone again.
Although there was surprise hidden in his heart, he didn't show it on his face.
"Everyone." He cupped his hands and bowed to everyone with a big smile. "My master admires Miss Gong's courage very much, so he agreed to Miss Gong's proposal. At the same time, in order not to let everyone say that our restaurant is bullying our customers.
Those who don't want to participate can say it now. We won't make things difficult for you. "
All the buyers who participated in the auction looked at each other, but only a few said that they would not participate.
The money was small, but the face was big.
If they participated, they would at most not bid for the goods and would miss a good opportunity for a year.
But if they didn't participate, they would be secretly laughed at as a coward who was inferior to a woman.
Lin Mengya looked at these fools who had been tricked by her with great satisfaction. If they knew her real plan, she was afraid that they would not be able to cry even if they wanted to.
"Hahahaha, Miss Gong is so broad-minded. The Ma family will follow this round."
Wild laughter came from not far away. Lin Mengya saw a young man in colorful clothes, trying hard to wave at her.
"Tsk, this Ma Beichen!"
Gong Wu said discontentedly and glared at the conspicuous guy.
It turned out that this was the suitor who gave her the pearl.
Lin Mengya felt that she was looking at a flagpole full of colorful flags.
Apart from a polite smile, she would forget about anything else.
With the Ma family taking the lead, the other aristocratic families were naturally unwilling to be left behind.
A never-before-seen gold-consuming extravaganza was about to begin.
"Master, isn't it a little inappropriate to do this?"
On the stand of the Rong family, the manager of this year's store, who was also Rong Luyi's absolute confidant, looked worriedly at the crowd that was about to boil up.
The current Rong family could not afford to be tossed around.
"It's okay, Uncle Li. You just need to keep an eye on those people and not let them make trouble."
Although Rong Luyi was now sitting firmly in the position of the master of the Rong family, only he knew the dangers and hardships.
Of course, he knew that such a rash change of rules would cause a lot of trouble.
But he did not dare to say no.
The shrewd Rong Luyi looked in the direction of the Gong family in confusion.
"Does that person also want to swallow up the Gong family?"
He hid all his doubts, looked at the things sent by his subordinates, and calmly gave orders.
In any case, the Rong family could not fall.
At least not now!
The Gong family had completely grasped the rules of the auction house. Of course, the price was piled up with wealth that ordinary people would be stunned.
In just one morning, the Gong family had spent at least ten thousand taels.
It made the hearts of the buyers who had been playing with her bleed.
This was not an auction. It was obviously cutting off their own flesh.
The five sons of the Gong family gradually changed from the initial shock to being used to it.
Especially Gong San and Gong Si, who knew the wealth of the Gong family. Just as Gong Ya said, even if they bought the whole auction house, it was just a drop in the bucket for the Gong family.
But from now on, no one dared to look down on the Gong family.
Lin Mengya leaned on the railing, casually bidding and increasing the price.
She enjoyed the surprise and doubt of the buyers who had been trapped by her, and then it gradually turned into anger, and finally fixed in fear.
The weak image of the Gong family these years had probably been mostly gone.
It was not easy to end the first auction, and those guys who had been fooled by her could finally take a breather.
"First Miss, this is the list of things we have bought."
Her willfulness did not matter, but Gong Yang, who was bidding, was exhausted.
However, in general, the people of the Gong Family all had smiles on their faces.
Lin Mengya casually glanced at the list, and then asked him to throw the list to her eldest brother, Gong Bin.
It was best for her eldest brother to do this kind of thing.
"Those old foxes seem to be still watching."
Gong Si looked at the other stands outside with a faint smile. Now that the gauze and bead curtains had been lowered, no one could see what was going on inside.
Lin Mengya also put away her casual look and looked at the teacup in her hand. No one knew what was going on inside.
"Of course. First, there is nothing here that can interest them. Second, they don't know our background. If we act rashly, they will only lose. "
After this auction, Gong San had gained a lot.
He gradually understood Gong Ya's intention. After such a shock, he was afraid that no one would dare to easily buy the carriage of their ancestor.
However, such a blind display of wealth would probably attract the covetous eyes of many rascals.
What on earth was her little sister planning?
She asked Gong Si with her eyes, but the latter just shrugged and shook his head at her helplessly.
Perhaps only her little sister knew this kind of thing.
