Long Wei was sitting in another living room with two servants, a man and a woman. Judging from their strong and healthy figures, they should be servants like bodyguards.

The knights brought by Longwei rested in the garden.

When Aurora walked into the living room, Longwei opened his hands familiarly, intending to give her a hug. The twin maids moved in front of Aurora, "Your Excellency, please forgive me, my wife is not used to hugging as greetings."

Longwei's face was full of displeasure, "Madam has been a countess for so long, but she still hasn't learned the welcome ceremony of the imperial capital. Miguel is too pampering you."

Aurora: "I'm Miguel's wife. It's our business if he wants to pamper me. Besides, the hug ceremony is only done in a situation where both parties are familiar with each other." She said bluntly: "We don't know each other well, and we don't want to hug you. Hurry up, I'm busy."

Seeing that Aurora didn't pay any attention to his belittling words, the Duke of Longwei fought back. He couldn't help curling his lips, thinking that Aurora was not as gentle and virtuous as a woman should be.

He simply sat down, spread his hands proudly, and put them on the back of the chair, "Since Madam doesn't want to talk nonsense, then I'll just say it straight, and the paintings of the cooks will be auctioned in my auction house."

"Why?"

"Because I am the Duke, you are only the countess. If you don't put the painting of the rice cooker on my auction, in the imperial capital, you don't even want to sell the painting of the rice cooker." Once the auction right is given to him, he can Looking for an opportunity to control the rice cooker, and waiting to work for him all his life, Longwei wants to do everything to show off to Aurora.

Aurora smiled: "That's how the duke talks about business? Doesn't the commission give in?"

The Duke of Longwei held his neck high, unwilling to give in, and perfectly interpreted the appearance of a miser, "The commission has always remained unchanged at 5.00%, without exception. But I don't need to charge you for promotional fees and appraisal fees, and the cook must sign the contract in person."

Seeing that Aurora was unmoved, the Duke of Longwei knew that he had no advantage, "Hey, for the sake of Count Miguel, the commission is only [-]%. Don't underestimate the [-], it adds up. .”

Aurora looked at him like a fool, and kept silent, letting him continue acting.

Duke Longwei: "300%, how about it. In our auction house, the price of one of your paintings can be raised to more than [-] million gold."

"Forget it, the commission is [-]%, the lowest."

Aurora sighed softly. It was just such a waste that took out the wallets of so many nobles in the imperial capital. Is it because the other nobles are too stupid, or did it on purpose to make the waste even worse.

"Sorry, it's not for sale anymore. I have a good collection for myself. Please come back, Duke."

Duke Longwei was shocked, "What? Not for sale? Does the cook know? You can't not sell it. If you don't sell it, what will I auction?" After asking three times in a row, Longwei was surprised by Aurora's immediate decision.

Aurora nodded, "The duke is used to living a rich life, and he may not know that as long as he doesn't have the extravagant expenses of the nobles, 100 gold divisions is enough for ordinary people to live without worrying about food, clothing, housing and transportation for ten years. The painting sold before, [-] gold Secretary, I gave a lot of money to the cook himself. The cook has no bad habits, lives a regular life, and likes to do things by himself. Even if the remaining ten paintings are not sold, it’s okay. She thinks that more money may not It's a good thing. So it doesn't affect her whether it is auctioned or not. Your Excellency the Duke is so powerful that ordinary people can't afford to offend her. At worst, I will sell it after she dies. Anyway, I have the right to decide now, and I find it troublesome, so I won't sell it. .”

Aurora really doesn't think it's a big deal, why don't they just not auction it after the exhibition?It's the same when it's auctioned after a while. The painting is drawn by herself, and the money is not bad. The first thing is to mess up the Longwei auction.

The Duke of Longwei suddenly stood up and pointed at Aurora. It was the first time in his life that he was so humiliated, as if he was a beggar and needed alms from a countess.His lips trembled with anger, "Will you give it, don't give it, be careful I will crush you Beichen."

"Does your Excellency like to threaten people with these words? Have you forgotten the newspaper of Taylor's family? I can definitely record your ugly appearance and let the world see that some pretentious nobleman exercises military power on behalf of His Majesty. The wild words of stepping down the honorable territory." The chill stained Aurora's eyes, "The Taylor family has been passed down for so many years, and the ancestors have made so many contributions. They work hard, no matter how poor the territory is, they never give up that place. You have the right to say Is this sentence? As long as Miguel and I are in Beichen, no matter how many soldiers you send, Beichen will be able to defend it. But you, Duke, do you have the ability to lead the army? I am afraid that even monsters will be seen. Live in a cage or in the Colosseum."

The aloof Duke of Longwei used to rely on his status to overwhelm others in all the disputes he had with others, and one look can make people terrified.

After all, the black forces are his confidence, but no matter how they make trouble, they can't affect Aurora's shop. He dared to send people to harass him the day before, and Aurora dared to kill all his people in the street. justifiable defense.

In terms of insidiousness, he is superior.

But in terms of ruthlessness, Beichen's people think they are second, but no one thinks they are number one.

If you get anxious, Beichen can close the door and beat the dog.

Outside, even the Countess of Garner would give him a little face. Whenever he met Aurora like this, he almost pointed at his nose and scolded him for being incompetent.

He choked back, "You, you, a woman should act like a woman, meddling in business affairs is against women's morality. I don't believe Miguel can tolerate you."

"Your Excellency, settle down with your family and come talk about women's morals with me. I don't auction the paintings, I've already given you a lot of face, you'd better deal with the affairs of the temple as soon as possible." It's enough, sharing a space with him, even the air has become bad.

Aurora seriously suspected that His Excellency the Duke didn't take a bath for half a year, and his body smelled sour. When Duke Longwei left angrily, Aurora hurriedly had the living room cleaned up carefully.

Aurora: "Long Wei really treats his face like an amethyst. It doesn't need perfume to cover up the smell."

The twin maids covered their mouths and laughed, how could Madam come up with such a cute metaphor.

Then while the maid was cleaning, "Ma'am, what is this?"

The maid pointed to a puddle of sticky silver liquid where the Duke's palm had passed, and Aurora felt disgusted, "Don't touch it with your hands, find something to collect, and go back to the alchemist to see what it is."

Aurora turned around and went to tell McGill first, McGill covered his forehead with self-pity, "It's too bad luck."

"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for your auction house."

The maid held a set of ultra-exquisite porcelain and put it in front of McGill. Aurora introduced: "New products, how much you can auction, depends on your ability."

This new set of porcelain is enamel color.

In addition to the extreme whiteness, people in another world are also very keen on things with changeable colors.

Enamel has rich colors, in line with the aesthetics of people from other worlds.

And the set that Aurora brought out is particularly exquisite, with vivid characters painted on the teapot, and different flowers in each teacup.Roses, chrysanthemums, tulips...

Viewed separately, each cup is a rare work of art.

McGill loves it. He admits that he is a layman, and he likes this kind of porcelain that looks sunny, but he is not very interested in all-white porcelain.

"I'd like to play for one's own sake and hide it." McGill had a strong will, with one arm open, and the porcelain circled around his arm.

Aurora: "..."

As expected of being friends with Miguel, it is possible to take down the taciturn and cold Miguel just because of his shameless character.

Aurora: "There are still two sets of finished products in the territory. When you go to Beichen, you can pick one and take it away."

McGill lost his ink in an instant. He ran with the porcelain in his arms, and went back to publicize it early. The auction will definitely become famous in one battle.

Hey, with Miguel as the lucky star, why should he worry about getting rich.

The staff of the art exhibition announced the next day that after the end of the Ganfanren art exhibition, due to some unspeakable things, the paintings will no longer participate in any auctions, nor will they be sold to the outside world.

The nobles angrily reprimanded the auction house for not doing well, and the staff were very wronged, muttering that it was not because of him, but because the Longwei family was too domineering.

As for how to be overbearing, there are several versions, but the spearhead is directed at the Duke of Longwei himself.

With the scene of nobles and human flesh at that time, the matter of the Duke leaving Taylor Manor in anger was picked up.

Now it's all right, the cooks are the same as the Taylor family, steel Bengang, even the Duke of Longwei dares to be tough.

The name of the rice cooker spread among the common people, but no one knew what the rice cooker looked like.

It's just that his paintings are recognizable at a glance.

The more mysterious, the more people explore.

The most wonderful thing is that because the paintings that have been waiting for a long time cannot be owned, the nobles flock to them even more and want to get the paintings.

And someone threatened that as long as he could steal the painting, he wouldn't mind paying the Purple Magic Crystal to buy it.

A purple magic crystal is worth [-] gold, at least [-] gold, to ordinary people, it is like the temptation of the abyss.

It is a pity that since the painting was announced not to be auctioned, the painting was taken back, and no one knew where it was placed.You can't just steal the painting without a specific location, it's better to enter the heavily guarded place like Taylor Manor.

Within a few days, the news that the top-quality porcelain appeared in the imperial capital overshadowed the limelight of the cooker's paintings, and the Duke of Longwy didn't even have a chance to bother McGill.

Until the sky-high price of porcelain was born, a certain nobleman in the south bought the porcelain back at a high price of 8000 million gold, and the whole process was a sensation.

A set of porcelain is 8000 million gold, enough for the combined annual tax of several wealthy territories.

Lemon fruit on the lemon tree, you and me under the lemon tree.

"I don't know which prodigal son bought it to save face."

"It's too extravagant. If I had the money, I would never buy it."

"I just want to know where I can see it, I can't buy it, and I want to enjoy it for free."

Those who said it was free to watch, the abacus popped in their faces, and if they couldn't buy it back to enjoy it, they also made a lot of money.

Aurora didn't care who bought it, but Aurora was stunned for more than 7000 million gold at a time.

Later, McGill told Aurora that the one who bought the porcelain was a local snake in the south. Since Aurora cooperated with them to make bread, they did not develop the bread recipe locally, but went to foreign countries to collect money.There is also milk tea, which is crazy.

8000 million is just scratching the surface. .

Aurora: "..." It seems that gourmet food is common all over the world. As long as the tongue does not fail, people will abandon the terrible food of black bread.

Especially for the elderly and children, although black bread is still the mainstream food, but with a little old noodles mixed in, it will become easier to eat.

In order to thank Aurora, the southern local snake generously spent 8000 million to give back.

Well, it's not that some local tyrant likes that set of porcelain very much, but that the other party gave money to Aurora in disguise.

This kind of operation is inexplicably like other people's money laundering procedures.

But when the money is in hand, the porcelain is also famous, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

The only bad person is the Duke of Longwy.

McGill hated the Duke of Longwy for disrupting the situation, preventing him from auctioning off the paintings of the cook.

If it wasn't for Aurora's back trick, he would ruin the reputation of the auction house again.

So he secretly spread the sequelae of Angel's Tears. He only spread it in the civilian circle, and later others spread it to other circles, passing it up layer by layer.

I don't know how many people believed it. Anyway, when the Longwei Auction House auctioned again, the number of nobles decreased by two-thirds, and the auction price was much lower than before.

To be honest, no one knows the authenticity of that weird octopus.

During Aurora's stay in the imperial capital, many nobles sent people to test her.

The main church is very mysterious, and people are basically kept out of the door.

And a small number of those who broke into the head teacher have since disappeared.

The aristocrats have strange thoughts, as long as their curiosity is aroused, they will try their best to know the truth. They have leisure and money, and they are not afraid of wasting manpower.

If the Temple of Light is upright and upright, as the dogma says, and does not hide any filth, why hide the church so tightly and cover it up.

Either hide the treasure, or hide the evil.

Therefore, the mysteriousness of the church will only arouse their thirst for knowledge even more.

In summary.

The Illuminati Church framed the painting of the rice cooker not only did not get a good deal, but also angered Aurora.

When the princes were angry, the land was scorched, and Aurora was also regarded as the prince leading one side, but someone insisted on sticking out her face and letting her beat her.

She just moved her fingers, and the power of the Temple of Light in the north was depleted.

Of course, there are also some veteran nobles who contribute to the flames, but I have to say that Aurora is very happy, and she can't complain that those who have had power are reluctant to bear power.

Power can really be addictive.

……

After the joint baptism of the nobles, the Guangming Temple knew that it was not an opponent, so it left Longwei and ran away, planning to retreat for a few years before emerging.

His Majesty was furious and dropped a lot of things in the room, and almost couldn't keep the porcelain. It was the princess who heard that His Majesty was going crazy, so she ran over to save the porcelain, and then let him continue to go crazy.

Long Wei couldn't submit a satisfactory answer to His Majesty, so he also slipped away, returning to the territory to avoid it first.

After Aurora interviewed all the applicants, Butler Werther came to find her.

"Ma'am, would you like to send someone to the orphan church in the suburbs? The Temple of Light has run away, and there are about two hundred orphans who have nowhere to go. That area was previously rented by the Temple of Light, and no one is willing to take care of it now." Of course, yes I don't want to take care of it for the time being, after all there are so many orphans.
