On the surface, Lin Mengya did not interfere with these auctions.
But secretly, the Gong Family had their own people, and they had to ensure the safety of the sellers and buyers.
She led her people into the auction house from the back door.
But she did not go to the VIP seats, but to a secret cubicle.
This was the place of the steward of the auction house, but now the steward was standing respectfully beside her.
Lin Mengya picked up the cup and glanced at the list of items.
"I heard that a lot of things were shipped from overseas this time?"
The steward nodded immediately and said politely, "Yes, if you like them, I'll ask them to buy them immediately."
She looked up and glanced at the steward.
No wonder he was in charge of the auction house. He knew that there were many rumors outside, but he did not show it.
"No need, I'm just here to have a look. You can leave now."
The steward left immediately, and Lin Mengya looked down at the list again.
The items on the list were not really precious. It was just a gimmick of imported goods.
"Master, Miss Jin and Miss Pan are here."
Baisu whispered in her ear.
Lin Mengya was even more curious. She had thought that Jin and Pan were the ones who made this deal. If she rejected them, they might not come.
"Well, let's wait and see."
At this time, the auction outside had officially begun.
The auctioneer was an experienced auctioneer. He stirred up the atmosphere with a few words.
Those items were fresh, and there were a few climaxes.
Lin Mengya had been resting with her eyes closed, so she could hear what was going on outside clearly.
Soon, the auctioneer said, "The next treasure is from an overseas country."
The audience did not react strongly, and the auctioneer was not in a hurry. He just continued, "Please have a look at this dress."
Then, someone brought up a long dress decorated with pearls and jades.
The long dress was beautiful and dazzling, and people could not take their eyes off it.
But what was more amazing was the matching of the gemstones and the cloth.
Many of the women present were attracted to beauty.
Who did not want to go out in such a dress and be dazzled by everyone on the street?
The auctioneer saw that everyone was interested in the dress and smiled secretly.
"Actually, the gemstones are secondary. The main thing is that the embroidery lady's skills are extraordinary. As long as she has a pair of skillful hands, even the lowest quality gold thread can be dazzling. "
After being reminded by the auctioneer, the people below realized that the quality of those gems was not high.
Some of them were so flawed that they weren't worth much at all.
However, in the hands of the embroidery lady, she could turn something rotten into something magical.
Among the crowd, there were also people who had some thoughts.
If he could really obtain that Xiu Niang, wouldn't it be equivalent to obtaining a treasure?
Immediately, a few of the owners of the silk business also took action.
"Compared to this dress, the value of this embroidery lady is much higher. Therefore, the starting price this time is 300 taels!"
The crowd hesitated for a moment, and the next moment, the bidding began.
After a while, other than the two wealthy silk merchants, only an inconspicuous merchant who had been sitting in the corner also joined in the bidding.
"Boss! It's already at five hundred taels of silver. If it's any more, I'm afraid we won't have enough even if we sell the shop! "
The shopkeeper in charge of bidding said anxiously in a low voice.
However, there was only anxiety in the eyes of the beautiful woman beside him.
"No way! I must save her. Uncle Kang, bid one thousand taels of silver. "
Uncle Kang was stunned, and then he could only shake his head.
After all, this was the boss's business, and he couldn't interfere.
She raised the small wooden plate with trembling hands, and when the auctioneer noticed her, she said bitterly, "One, one thousand taels of silver!"
The price soared in an instant, causing the two silk merchants to suck in a breath of cold air.
An ordinary embroidery lady's monthly salary was only a few taels of silver. If it wasn't for this lady's special skills, they might not be willing to spend so much money.
Only one thousand taels of silver … The two of them shook their heads, but in their hearts, they thought that the person who made the bid must be a fool.
Seeing that her opponent had backed out of the bidding, the woman secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
She had just calmed down, but in the next moment, she became anxious again.
"I bid one thousand five hundred taels of silver."
"Master, Miss Jin has made a bid."
At the same time, in the secret room, Lin Mengya also heard Baisu's report.
As expected, even if she didn't come, Jin Yao still made a bid.
Could it be that Jin Yao also liked the embroidery lady's skills, and wanted to outshine others in Karghalik?
However, with Jin Yao's status, she might not be interested in things that were better than this.
After thinking for a while, she asked Baisu to bring the dress over.
Soon, the dress inlaid with jewels was in her hands.
Baisu helped her to tidy it up, and could not help but sigh, "This dress seems to be tailor-made for you."
She raised her head and looked at Baisu in confusion.
Baisu pointed to the waist and explained, "Your waist is very thin, so if you want to wear a well-fitting dress, you must shorten the waist a little. I think this dress will be very suitable for you. "
Baisu was the one who took care of her clothes, so it must be the right one.
However, how could it be so coincidental?
She turned over the jewels and was slightly shocked.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"Go, no matter what, we must get this embroidery lady from Jin Yao's hands!"
Her tone was a little anxious, and Baisu could not help but feel a little worried.
Fortunately, Baisu was used to obeying her orders, so she turned around and went to do it.
Lin Mengya was left alone, looking at the dress in her hands in a daze.
She could not be more familiar with that kind of stitch.
When she was in the prince's mansion, the few sets of clothes she carried with her most often had this kind of stitch. On the last stitch, she would skillfully make a small flower bud.
It was Baiji, her Baiji!
After the civil strife in Jin State, she tried to find out the whereabouts of Baiji and the others, but she did not know their whereabouts.
She did not expect to see the familiar stitch here.
After the excitement, Lin Mengya also faintly felt that all this was aimed at her!
Very good, they dared to use her people to plot against her. Their means were very clever.
She gently pushed open a small carved window. She could see outside, but the people outside could not see her.
She saw Jin Yao and Miss Pan sitting together, and it seemed that they were determined to get this embroidery lady.
Perhaps they knew the relationship between her and Baiji.
But they took the initiative to tell "Su Mei".
There must be some deeper meaning in this.
The bidding outside had reached a climax. The person who had offered a thousand taels seemed to be competing with Jin Yao and Su Mei.
Soon, the price soared to two thousand taels.
Jin Yao did not expect that someone would be stupid enough to compete with her for a person.
She wanted to increase the price, but was stopped by Miss Pan.
"Miss Jin, I think it's better not to compete with others."
Jin Yao glanced at her coldly.
Compared to Su Mei, she disliked this woman even more.
Everyone wanted a man, but she pretended to be weak and experienced.
But now, they had to join forces to face Gong Ya, their common enemy.
"What do you know? This woman means a lot to Gong Ya. If we can get her, we won't have to worry about winning against her. "
However, Miss Pan said softly, "Miss Jin, what you said makes sense. But if Gong Ya knows that she is in your hands, I'm afraid she will be afraid and not fall into the trap so easily."
Jin Yao squinted at her and asked disdainfully, "Then what do you think we should do?"
"In my opinion, it is better to let that person buy her first. That person has so much money, he will definitely not let her go easily. If Gong Ya knew that the person she cared about had been bought by someone else, what do you think she would do? Moreover, I think that person doesn't have a prominent family background like Miss Jin. Gong Ya is the head of the Gong family, and I'm sure she will be suspected of bullying others. "
Jin Yao thought for a while and had to admit that it was indeed a good plan.
But in her eyes, she still looked down on Miss Pan and felt that she was too inferior.
"You're smart. Well, I'll fulfill their wish."
In the end, Jin Yao made a few more bids, knowing that Miss Pan was determined to win.
And the mysterious embroidery woman was sold at a high price of 2,800 taels of silver.
"Boss, we've bought her, but the money …"
Uncle Kang wrinkled his face like a bitter gourd.
However, his boss, who had gone bankrupt, looked relieved.
"Thank you, Uncle Kang. Don't worry, I will pay you your salary this month. When we go back, I will give you another month's salary. Thank you for your hard work in the past six months. "
The woman didn't know what was on her mind. She had worked so hard to build up the family business, but now it was all in vain because of a strange embroidery woman.
Uncle Kang sighed and shook his head with a wry smile.
"No, it's because you trust me that I can live a good life. Boss, if you want to make a comeback, these old bones of mine can still come in handy. "
The woman forced a smile, but she didn't regret it.
She urged Uncle Kang to bring the deed of the real estate over, and the woman went back to her own carriage first.
"Sir, please wait a moment."
Uncle Kang looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him in surprise, and subconsciously covered the box containing his boss's wealth.
Baisu looked around and saw that there was no one around, and said in a low voice, "I have a deal, and I hope you can help me."
Lin Mengya waited in the small compartment for a while, but Baisu didn't come back.
She knew that Baisu was cautious, and Baisu had a lot of money at her disposal. Even if the buyer asked for an exorbitant price, Baisu could make the decision to stop him.
Unexpectedly, Baisu apologized to her as soon as she entered the room, "Master, I'm incompetent. That man refused to sell it no matter what I said."
Refused to sell?
Lin Mengya couldn't help feeling nervous.
She had heard from the supervisor that the inconspicuous businessman was a new face in the auction house, and he didn't seem to be rich.
Was he sent by someone to lure her?
"Send someone to keep an eye on them. If they want to hurt Baiji, save her immediately."
"Baiji? Master, did you say that the embroidery woman is Baiji? "
Now, even Baisu, the cold beauty, opened her eyes wide and asked in surprise.
