Chapter 37 Preparation
Seeing Lu Yuanming take out 3000 taels of silver, Gu Shen was also taken aback for a moment.

He knew that in Lu Yuanming's generation, the Lu family was already in the bottom of their fortunes.

In addition, Lu Yuanming built hundreds of refugee shelters outside the city in the winter of last year and spent a huge amount of money. It is estimated that there is even less money in hand.

And Gu Shen also noticed that when Lu Yuanming wanted to take out the 3000 taels of silver just now, he was a little hesitant.

3000 taels of silver is enough for a well-off family to spend for a lifetime, and it is not a small sum of money wherever it is placed.

Gu Shen said: "Old Lu, I can't take this money."

Lu Yuanming frowned, and said: "Take it, I still have money, you don't know much about this kind of auction, I have heard some rumors, those who can participate in this kind of auction are not those who are short of money , the things inside are more expensive than the other ones, so I should prepare more money, I went to this auction purely to see the world, and I don't plan to buy anything, I don't need money."

"And I've also thought about it. From now on, I will take the road of becoming an official. Not to mention being rich and powerful, at least I will live a worry-free life. Even if I do things like donate porridge and set up a shed, I will use the government's money. Lu's family has no money. You Take it, I will borrow it from you at worst, and you will return it to me when you have money in the future."

Gu Shen looked at the 3000 taels of silver in his hand, and handed it to Lu Yuanming, saying: "Old Lu, I am really rich. Although I am a small jailer, the oil and water in the prison are very rich, let alone 3000 taels. Silver, even 3 taels of silver, I can take it out for you."

Lu Yuanming originally insisted on giving it to Gu Shen, but when he heard Gu Shen say that, he was immediately stunned.

"Brother Gu, is there really 3 taels?" Lu Yuanming asked with wide-eyed eyes.

He also knew that there was a lot of money in the imperial prison, but it was hard to imagine that Gu Shen, a small jailer, could get tens of thousands of taels.

Good guy, how deep is someone here?

Gu Shen nodded dumbfounded.

Naturally, there is money in the imperial prison. It is enough for Gu Shen and his colleagues to go to Goulan to listen to music every day, but there is definitely no such thing as tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Gu Shen has 10 taels of gold tickets, which can be exchanged for 100 million taels of silver. If you are not in a hurry, these 10 taels of gold tickets can be exchanged for 20 taels of silver. After all, the value of gold is far away. higher than silver.

But these things, Gu Shen can't tell Lu Yuanming, the golden ticket, the elixir, and the Qingyun gate post, each of these three things can cause shocks in the entire Dayin Dynasty.

Although Gu Shen has achieved a first rank now, and was able to rank among the top ten masters in the Dayin Dynasty, he is not as cautious as before, but he is still very stable in his work.

Lu Yuanming couldn't tell about the money he got from Tongxuan Taoist, but Gu Shen told him that he still had tens of thousands of taels of silver in order to appease Lu Yuanming.

Looking at the 3000 taels of silver in his hand, he was also quite moved.

Traveling through this year, apart from his colleagues, Lu Yuanming was his only friend, and this friend was not in vain.

Seeing Gu Shen's serious expression, Lu Yuanming nodded, and took back the 3000 taels of silver. Although he said just now that he was not short of the money, the entire Lu Mansion was supported by him, and money was always in short supply. Tighten your belt to get by, but now you don't have to.

Lu Yuanming said: "Brother Gu, let's talk about this matter first. I will ask that friend to get one more invitation to the auction, and we will go there together when the time comes."

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Okay."

After the two talked for a while, Lu Yuanming got up and left.

After sending Lu Yuanming away, Gu Shen returned to the house, curious about the auction.

It would be the best to have the full version of Xiantian Gong at the auction, if not, Gu Shen also thought about it, and immediately asked Captain Ma for a few days off to go to the rivers and lakes.

Martial arts first rank, where can't you go except the General's Mansion?
Besides the full version of Xiantian Gong, Gu Shen was also curious about other things on the auction.

He now holds 10 taels of gold in his hand, such a large sum of money is enough for him to have no worries.

The next day, after the release of Yamen.

Gu Shen did not go to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion with Xu Yan, Li Ga, and Zhang Shunli, but came to Dongshi.

He has to make some preparations for the auction.

Going to participate in the auction this time, it is necessary to meet many people face to face, Gu Shen thought that it would be best to buy a mask and put it on so as not to expose himself.

In the end, he chose a golden ape mask, and he didn't choose it on purpose, but when he saw this mask, it reminded him of a mythical character he liked very much in his previous life, so he chose this one.

After dinner, Lu Yuanming came and told Gu Shen about the auction.

The time was set on the ninth day of this month, that is, five days later, the location was still outside the city at Manjiazhuang, and the few people made an appointment to meet outside Yanxing Gate in the east of Chang'an City.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the ninth day of the junior high school.

After leaving the office, Gu Shen went straight home, had dinner at home, and felt that the time to meet was approaching, so Gu Shen put the gold ticket and mask in his arms and walked out of the house.

Gu Shen didn't deliberately speed up, but his body was full of strength, and before he knew it, his foot speed surpassed that of most people, and he arrived at Yanxing Gate in less than a stick of incense.

Following the common people out of the city, they walked out of Yanxing Gate, and stood waiting for Lu Yuanming and his friend from the Pei family 100 meters away from the city gate.
