Chapter 477: Auction
determined that the ledger itself should have no role in promoting or providing clues for the task, at least the numbers that made the two of them big have no effect, and Ye Sheng didn't take the numbers seriously.
She had checked the ledger over and over again, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.
Pretended to read two books, and ate some food by the way, the food in the plot has no food effect, but the satiety is still added, and if you don't eat it, you don't eat it in vain.
"Wandering around the building?" Ye Sheng asked in the team.
"Yes." Lin Jianxiao replied quickly, he dropped the ledger and stood up.
They are not omnipotent, they are just stronger, and this ledger is really an existence outside of ability.
The two of them went out separately, and they didn't forget to turn around and close the door, and there was a lock on the door, and they locked it easily, after all, the account book was inside, and it looked like they had to do enough.
When they returned to the building, the shopkeeper was entertaining guests, and Ye Sheng directly grabbed a small servant and asked him to take him around the building.
I used to pass by quietly on the first floor, so I had to take a good look around, observe the people around me, and listen to their conversation by the way.
Most of them are the people in charge at the counter who are introducing the various jade ornaments, and some are bargaining, or discussing with their companions which ones are good-looking.
There are also many customers looking at them, in those days, several descendants of the Xiao family were famous.
Lin Jianxiao's side was the most embarrassing, and he even met a few ladies surrounding him and talking about my daughter.
“…… Why is there even this in the plot of an investigation mission? Lin Jianxiao was a little uncalm, but he couldn't avoid it, and finally reluctantly hid on the second floor.
The second floor is already a VIP area, not as lively as the first floor, nor as presumptuous as the first floor, the more noble the person, the more restrained he is, because Xiao Yulou is not their territory.
Ye Sheng finished walking around the first floor, it was still the first day, he didn't expect to see anything, and he really didn't find anything, so he went to the second floor.
The second floor is similar, there is also a special rest, providing tea and snacks, and Lin Jianxiao is sitting there, looking careless, but observing everyone on the second floor without a trace.
"I heard someone talk about it just now, there are people from the royal family on the third floor." There is a great contradiction between the Xiao family and the royal family, and Xiao Jiuya also hinted that he is a member of the royal family, and he will naturally pay more attention to the royal family.
"Well, I'll take a look later." Ye Sheng responded, of course she was not in a hurry to go up, she also looked at the people on the second floor before she walked up with Lin Jianxiao.
The counter on the second floor is actually much less than that on the first floor, but the materials used are better, and the jade jewelry displayed in the counter has naturally improved a lot of grades.
As for the third floor, even the stairs up the stairs have been replaced with jade quality, and a lot of money has been burned everywhere at a glance.
Many jade ornaments that can be sold on the first and second floors have become a decoration here.
However, the third floor is more lively than the second floor, because there is an auction of jade ornaments here, but on the second floor, you can still hear a little noise on the first floor, but you don't hear any movement on the third floor.
And Ye Sheng only knew at this time that Xiao Yulou did not have a fourth floor, although the appearance was a four-story structure, but the third and fourth floors inside were opened.
Ye Sheng and the others didn't alarm the people at the auction, anyway, the seats were not full, so they sat in the last row and watched the auction.
Of course, it is also to find someone worthy of their attention in some conversations.
There is a duchess who came here to auction jade ornaments, that is, the younger sister-in-law of Emperor Jingyun.
Ye Sheng quickly determined the object, in fact, it is not difficult to find, it can be seen from the clothing, the royal family's clothing has a certain standard, from the materials to the standard.
She didn't know much about the situation on Jingyun's side, but Lin Jianxiao knew.
The Duchess took two jade ornaments, and she was very generous, and a maid came to deliver a snack and received a gold coin as a tip.
Ye Sheng wrote down the maid, and now he hasn't gotten any clues, so he has cast a net to investigate. However, how to check?
"Do you think we can trust the shopkeeper?" She was thinking about it, and decided to pull Lin Jian Xiao to think together.
"I think it's okay, the Xiao family won't be so bad that the shopkeeper can become a royal secret stake, right? This position should be someone that the Xiao clan trusts very much. Lin Jian Xiao pondered for a while and then said what he thought.
"Yes." They need someone who can command them to conduct a covert investigation, or else it's up to the two of them to investigate.
"I think I can get the information of the people who have been in contact with the Duchess first." Lin Jianxiao has also been thinking about how to find the hidden pile.
"I think so too." Ye Sheng nodded in agreement, "Also, we have to know the true purpose of Xiao Yulou's existence." ”
"yes." It's just an ordinary shop, what can the royal family do with the hidden pile? Could it be that money is deducted from it? Knowing the essence of Xiao Yulou may also give them some clues.
The two of them sat in the back and watched the whole auction, and someone had already noticed their presence in the middle of the process, and turned to look at them several times.
When the scene ended, they turned around directly, and the others also looked at them at this time, Ye Sheng and Lin Jianxiao also made the appearance of the Xiao clan at this time, smiling and nodding to them.
As the first family, you don't have to show respect to anyone, not even the Duchess.
But the heritage of the big family is not rude, compared to the many auction participants here, they are juniors, and they should have etiquette.
They even sent two steps, but there was no extra movement after sending the leader down the stairs.
Ye Sheng's memory and Lin Jianxiao's original background, such a performance is no pressure or even natural for them.
Lin Jianxiao turned his eyes and glanced at Ye Sheng, sometimes he felt that her words and deeds were like coming from a big family, but she couldn't bring it to anyone who knew it, but sometimes she didn't feel like it.
This person is as if she used her skills in battle, and a fog is always shrouded in it.
The auction ended, and soon someone came to clean up, Ye Sheng and Lin Jianxiao returned to the backyard, and watched the auction again for a while, and it actually took a long time.
The shopkeeper soon came to the backyard, Ye Sheng and Lin Jianxiao were in a room, pretending to have the account book in front of them, and the shopkeeper knocked on the door and walked in.
"Fourth Young Master, Fifth Miss, what have you discovered?" Hearing him ask like this, Ye Sheng and Lin Jianxiao were even more sure that this person could be trusted and used by them.
"Not for the time being, first give us a copy of the information of all the people who work in the building, especially the few who have been in contact with the Duchess today." You have to have a copy of the personnel information in hand, at least you have to know who is who.
"What did you find in the south of the city?" Ye Sheng asked the shopkeeper in turn.
"The person in charge of the south side of the city will report in person in the evening."
