When Han Yan asked Mengtu to show the treasure first, she also had some unspeakable thoughts.After all, since Mengtu first came to Chang'an to provoke various shops, the treasures in his hands are those things.Han Yan didn't know if those were all his family assets, and he also made preparations one by one according to the things in Mengtu's hands.Even for the sake of safety, several special devices have been carefully prepared.However, in order to facilitate the response and to show the friendship of the landlord, Montu was the first to show it.

Montu is also well aware of Han Yan's tricks.However, his goal of spreading fame in Chang'an has been achieved, and Han Yan's actions can't find any mistakes in the big picture, so he smiled slightly and signaled his followers to bring the treasure up.

This is a large piece that is three feet high, three feet long, and more than two feet wide.Four strong young men moved up carefully, each holding a corner.The object is covered with a large piece of red silk, and the unevenness of the object can be vaguely seen.Seeing this situation, Han Yan felt a little confident about the preciousness of the object.

The four of them gently placed the object in front of the booth.Then they got off the booth one by one.Montu walked in front of the object with light steps, stretched out his hand and gently lifted it, and the object was completely exposed to the sun.After the crowd under the booth saw it clearly, they were quiet for a moment, and then they immediately burst into an uproar.

I only heard that Mengtu said loudly: "A deep-sea coral is three feet high, three feet long, and more than two feet wide. It took a year to salvage it from the deep sea with my servants. I also ask Mr. Ayan to look at it. .”

The three-foot-high and three-foot-long coral stood there quietly, exuding a breathtaking red light all over its body, and it looked even more crystal-clear under the sunlight, exuding a faintly enchanting aura.

The faces of the merchants on the judging panel changed after seeing this coral. Many of them were defeated by this coral.Even if there are precious treasures with the same value as this coral, seeing this breathtaking moment in the sun, I am still fascinated.As the saying goes, money touches people's hearts, and that's what it is.

Even Chen Ajiao, who was used to seeing precious objects in the private room, was a little worried. "This coral is really a treasure, can Ah Yan do it?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Che and Zhou Mingjin pursed their lips in concern.

Han Yan smiled slightly when she saw the coral. He probably knew the details of Mengtu.Of course he knew the existence of this coral.To be honest, he didn't pay much attention to this thing.On the contrary, he was a little curious about the information that Montu said he salvaged from the deep sea with his own hands.After all, the technology of the ancients was still very humble. How did he salvage the coral under such circumstances?

But hearing what Montu said, Han Yan still smiled nonchalantly, walked up to Shan Shan and pulled out the sword at her waist, and swung it vigorously at Shan Shan, the huge coral instantly shattered into pieces, splashing everywhere Leave a little vermilion.

"Master Ah Yan, you—" Mengtu was furious, and immediately pointed at Han Yan with a flushed face, his lips trembling in anger.The murderous intent in the eyes is awe-inspiring. "I thought Han Yan, the son of the famous Chang'an, is a modest gentleman with a broad heart and an upright conduct. I saw you today, and you are really disappointing. Is this the self-cultivation of the children of your great Han family?"

Everyone on and off the court was also in an uproar, looking at Han Yan full of disapproval.Even the three people in the private room widened their eyes in astonishment.

"How could Ah Yan..." Ah Jiao complained hesitantly, but thinking of her good impression of him before, she bit her lip and couldn't say anything else.The brows are full of sadness and disappointment.

"This doesn't look like Ah Yan's way of acting?" Zhou Mingjin said suspiciously.

"I don't know what way Ah Yan thought of being a slut again." Only Liu Che raised his eyebrows and said expectantly.

Ignoring everyone's astonishment, Han Yan smashed the coral, retracted her sword in a relaxed manner, smiled at the angry Montu, raised her hands and struck three times in a row.

Yi Guan's servant in Tsing Yi came up carrying five large objects.Each one is four or five feet tall.A group of servants carried the objects to the booth and put them away gently, and then gently tore off the red silk covering them.The people who were still uproariously fell silent for a moment.The treasurer Wang of Jianbaozhai stood up excitedly at the judging panel——

Five corals are displayed side by side on a large booth.Each of the shortest corals is four feet high, and the extended branches are more than twice as thick as the coral that Han Yan smashed before.Each plant is a rare and precious thing, and now five of them stand side by side quietly in the sun, exuding a shocking red light.It looks so strange, so charming.

Montu's aggressive accusations stopped abruptly, and he looked at the five corals with an indescribably strange expression.

"It's understandable that people in small places haven't seen the big world." Han Yan was silent for a while, and then she said Shi Shiran: "But as a subject of a big man, as a Chang'an businessman with the responsibility of being a host, I really can't bear the heart of the Mengtu brothers who are like frogs at the bottom of a well, guarding the big world and being complacent, without knowing the vastness of the world. Just now, the actions are simple and rough, so please don't be offended by the Montu brothers. These five corals are the servants of the family. Those who were bored washing clothes in the moat randomly picked it up. You can choose one at random and treat it as Han Yan's apology."

As soon as Han Yan's words came out, everyone in the venue was lonely and silent at first, and then burst into laughter.Everyone couldn't help laughing at Montu's increasingly embarrassing expression.Even everyone in the judging panel was elated. Although Han Yan's actions were somewhat rude, they were indeed a slap in the face for the provocative businessmen in Chang'an.

Originally!You, a small businessman who came from some remote village, arrived in Chang'an, and it would be rude to worship the mountain if you didn't follow the rules, but you still came to provoke with some financial resources, insulting the big families like this is simply unbearable for uncles, and it is unbearable for auntie Can't bear it.Fortunately, in the end, Han Yan's Qibaozhai was up to the challenge, otherwise this Chang'an family would not be slapped in the face by a small foreign barbarian.

All the business representatives at the judging panel immediately sat back on their seats with calm expressions, stroking their beards and drinking tea.The school is leisurely and indifferent, and his speech and demeanor are quite like everyone.Some good-natured people even pointed to the five corals that Han Yan brought up and commented, all of which implied that they were many times better than the one that Mengtu brought.Of course, there is no need to elaborate on the petty contempt that faintly reveals in the words against Mengtu who gets angry at the slightest thing.At the same time, I highly praise Han Yan's generous act of asking Montu to choose a coral to show my steadfast demeanor.But in a short while, Han Yan's actions upgraded from simple and rude to bold and straightforward with everyone's demeanor.

In the private room, Chen Ajiao gasped loudly, and said with a smile: "I was scared to death, Ah Yan is still the same as before, always doing amazing things to be happy."

Zhou Mingjin also agreed with lingering fear: "No, it's a good thing that Han Yan has some sense of propriety. Otherwise, those officials will play rumors again tomorrow."

"It can't stop like this." Liu Che snorted coldly, dissatisfied with the conclusion. "A bunch of squawking trash."

Not to mention the thoughts of the three people in the private room, Mengtu on the booth, after hearing Han Yan's words, his originally flushed face became tender and purple.Glancing at the fragmented coral with pain all over his face, he said coldly: "No, it's just a single coral, and it's still affordable. It's just that this kind of vulgar thing hinders Mr. Ayan's eyes so much that he is really blinded." The picture is no longer there."

"Han Yan can't afford to say that. Everyone has a love of beauty. Han Yan originally had good intentions, but I think Mr. Mengtu doesn't appreciate it very much. But what should be done is still to be done, lest foreign businessmen say in the future My big Han family bullies others." Facing Mengtu's sour dissatisfaction, Han Yan seemed to be bitten by a mosquito without any pain.He can be regarded as a child of an aristocratic family in his past and present lives, so he naturally knows how to use power to get the best results.Immediately said loudly: "Come here, send the biggest coral to Mr. Montu. Compensation for damaged items is the most basic principle. What we businessmen talk about is credit and morality, fairness and justice, lest people misunderstand our store. Bully. It’s not good to unite to bully outsiders.”

After saying a word, the people below continued to applaud and cheered.Chang'an Shop's originally gloomy momentum immediately turned around.Han Yan looked at the shopkeepers on the judging panel, whose brows were already full of spirits and hatred, and nodded secretly in her heart.

The hard work was not in vain.So many times, painstakingly connecting Qibaozhai with all the antique shops in Chang'an, and extending the duel between the Han family and Mengtu to the confrontation between the Han family and the foreigners, is afraid that Qibaozhai and the Han family will fight today. The limelight hit people's eyes too much.Now it seems that there is finally a three-point effect.As for some people who are not right-minded, he doesn't need to worry too much.After all, his current power is not something that people can just step on.

Thinking of this, the smile on Han Yan's lips grew wider.He cleared his voice and said loudly: "According to the rules, Qibaozhai will display the treasures, and then Montu will come—"

"Wait a minute!" Montu suddenly interrupted Han Yan's words.

When Han Yan heard the words, she bent her lips unsurprisingly, but she pretended to be surprised and asked, "Mr. Mengtu, why is this?"

"Mengtu has been in Chang'an for more than half a month, and has communicated with many merchants. I think Mr. Ayan knows about Mengtu's details. Let's stop playing tricks, and don't show off those dispensable things. There is a treasure in Mengtu's hand, which has never been shown in front of people. If the treasure in Mr. Ayan's hand can compare with my family's heirloom, Mengtu will be willing to bow down. From then on, he will never mention the competition. And in public Apologize to the merchants who have competed before." Montu said loudly.He had no choice but to say this, Han Yan's actions today obviously disrupted his plan to use this competition to gain popularity.Judging from the five corals brought out by Qibaozhai just now, what Han Yan did was aimed at the treasures he had shown in front of people.I'm afraid that whatever he brings out next, Han Yan will immediately present a much more expensive similar treasure, and there may be more than one.Mengtu was not afraid of such behavior alone. Han Yan was originally a child of a family, and the name of the God of Wealth was spread far and wide.Over the past decade or so, the businesses under the banner have grown bigger and better, and the speed and efficiency with which each business accumulates wealth is commendable.There are even rumors that he has his own fleet to do business with people across the sea.He is also very popular with the high-ranking people. It is said that the queen mother, her elders and the eldest princess all praised him very much.There are also batches of rewards when you are free.It doesn't matter if you lose against such a rich and powerful person.But the bad thing is that if Han Yan smashes the lost treasures every time she fights, and then pays compensation...

If he opens a shop in Chang'an in the future, and the rare treasures that are available are all compensated by Han Yan's Qibaozhai, then Mengtu's face will be greatly lost.

Han Yan had nothing to do with Mengtu's proposal, and Mengtu's reaction was within his expectations.Being able to make a decision so early proves that this person still has some sanity.Han Yan immediately waved her hand to signal the servants below not to carry the things up.Then he smiled at Mengtu and said: "Since Mr. Mengtu said so, the visitor is a guest. Although our big man's custom is to take care of the guest, we have taken care of Mr. Mengtu's personal situation. I, Qibaozhaigui, are the hosts." , naturally let the guests enjoy themselves. No matter what young master Mengtu has to teach, I, Qibaozhai, will accompany you to the end!"

Do as you please, lest you lose in the end and rely on me to dig you in advance.

Meng Tuquan didn't understand Han Yanmian's words about hiding the needle.With a solemn face, he waved his hands to the people below, and nearly ten Yelang men came onto the stage carrying a heavy object with great difficulty.Slowly put the object on the table and put it upright, about the height of a person.Mengtu didn't show any tricks, and went straight up to take off the red silk covering.The crowd who had calmed down immediately gasped.

It was a jade statue nearly one person tall.The color is yellow like an autumn pear, the luster is moist, dense and pure, and it emits a warm light under the sunlight.It is not necessary to go up to observe carefully, but based on this first glance, anyone with a little knowledge in the field will know that this is a high-quality jade.Going forward to appreciate it carefully, it is rare that this statue is actually made of a whole piece of jade.Seen in this way, its value suddenly becomes a hundred times.

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes fell on Han Yan vaguely.

Han Yan looked at the jade statue that Mengtu took out, and the smile on her face became more and more warm.Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his preparation was just right.His expression was even more pleasant.

When Mengtu took out the jade statue, there was no hope. After all, Han Yan's financial resources were too strong.He just wanted to get back some face.Seeing how everyone in the field was whispering and whispering now, he also smiled with satisfaction. "This topaz statue is my family heirloom. The whole body is made of a piece of topaz. There is no splicing. I invite Mr. Ayan to appreciate it."

"Sure enough, it's top-quality topaz." Han Yan walked up to take a closer look and said with a smile.

"Master Ah Yan, you are polite." Hearing this, Meng Tu felt relieved.Fortunately, Han Yan didn't smash the topaz statue, otherwise he really didn't know how to explain it. "Also ask Mr. Ah Yan to show it."

"It's easy to say." Han Yan raised her eyebrows and clapped her hands casually.There are servants below to carry up the things that have been prepared.

Mengtu couldn't help but shrink his pupils when he saw the servants of the Han family who filed forward.There are actually three seats.The first two seats are better, but they are about the height of one person.The last one was actually carried up by a hundred young and strong men, and it was more than three feet taller than the first two standing on the stage.Although they are all covered with red silk, it is impossible to see what is going on.But Montu saw Han Yan's increasingly relaxed smile, and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling wryly. There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky. This time, he really hit the iron plate.

Han Yan looked at Mengtu's bitter face and frowned.He casually tore off the red silk of a jade carving beside him, revealing a tall, snow-white statue.There was a sudden silence in the field, and after a long while, the shopkeeper Wang of Jianbaozhai was the first to break the silence, and said dryly: "Suet white jade, it is such a large piece of suet white jade..." That's right, there is a white jade standing quietly on the booth. The statue of Lao Tzu, one person tall, has a warm luster and is as strong as curd fat. It is the finest suet white jade among jade wares.Like the jade statue shown by Mengtu, this statue of Laozi is also carved from a whole block of suet white jade.Under the sun, Lao Tzu is wearing a long gown, standing with his hands behind his back, his eyes are calm and indifferent, and his brows reveal wisdom and transparency. The whole statue is lifelike, and the carving technique alone is invaluable.In addition to the already precious suet white jade, its value is already immeasurable, and it is more than [-]% better than the jade statue that Mengtu took out before.

That's it for the first statue, so the rest...

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on the two statues that hadn't lifted their veils.

Seeing this situation, Han Yan smiled slightly, and didn't hold back.He casually tore off the red silk from the two statues behind.Everyone's eyes fell on the two statues, and they could not wait to stop twitching violently——

The second statue is carved with the image of a person in Tian Topaz, a person's height.The man wore a twelve-pronged crown on his head, a crown on his body with a coiled collar, and a right lapel, with chapters painted on the top and bottom, and then painted one by one covering his knees, wearing a ribbon, and red lapel. His face was handsome and majestic.It was His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty——Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty Liu Qi.

The third statue is made of an unknown material, and its whole body is crystal clear, as if transparent.Under the sunlight, it emits colorful light, and the light is shining so that people can't help squinting their eyes.And I don’t know how to do it, but the entire article of the Tao Te Ching actually emerged. Under the sunlight, the entire article of the Tao Te Ching seemed to be shining, and even the Tao Te Ching appeared on the ground of the huge booth. , as if psychic.And the statue of Emperor Jing beside him became more and more majestic against the colorful light.Everyone was mesmerized by this gorgeous fairy-like effect, and some people couldn't help but knelt down and shouted: "This is a miracle, a miracle! Long live my emperor, long live long live, long live the great man..."

The people in the arena were overwhelmed by this scene, they fell to their knees in an instant, and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live long live, long live the great man..."

In the chaos, Han Yan also knelt down, lowered her head, and echoed in her mouth.The submissive behavior perfectly concealed the eyes that kept rolling around.Han Yan thought with a smirk in her heart——

It seems that the flattery was right again this time...

In the private room, Liu Che stood up excitedly watching the scene of thousands of people kneeling down and shouting long live.Pointing to the bottom, he said loudly: "Sure enough, a man should be like this..."
