National Beast Control: I became a god by unlocking card slots

Chapter 165 Auction Dinner

Tao Anya planned to let Sun Siqi join them. Anyway, Sun Siqi was alone during the Chinese New Year, so it was lively when there were many people coming to their place.

Of course Sun Siqi agreed. She originally wanted to celebrate the New Year with Tao Anya and the others.

There was still some time before the New Year, and on the third day after they returned, an invitation letter was delivered to Ning Yu.

It was from Xiao Mo, asking her to attend an auction dinner.

Ning Yu called Xiao Mo, and Xiao Mo quickly answered the call.

"Don't worry, it's not compulsory to buy anything. You can come and take a look. It's an auction of some skills and props. You probably haven't seen them often, so you just come to get familiar with them."

Ning Yu thought of Ning Jiu, so he asked him, "Can I take someone else with me?"

Tao Anya was very busy recently and didn't have much free time, so she had no choice but to take Ning Jiu with her.

"This is held by my family. You can bring as many as you want. I also invited Qin Simian and others."

Ning Yu said that would be good.

At the auction dinner, she was indeed not very familiar with what Xiao Mo was talking about, so it would be nice to go and have a better experience.

"Where are you going?" Ning Jiu asked curiously.

"The Xiao family will hold an auction dinner the day after tomorrow. I will take you to see it then."

"Auction dinner?" Ning Jiu had never heard of it and found it very novel.

To attend the dinner, you must wear some formal clothes. After Tao Anya found out, she prepared one for each of them.

On the day of the dinner, Ning Yu and Ning Jiu went to the place on the invitation together and walked in directly after showing it.

Inside was a huge banquet hall. Xiao Mo was in a very conspicuous position. He saw Ning Yu and Ning Jiu at a glance and waved them over.

Qin Simian and others had already arrived over there, and Ning Jiu greeted these people with some restraint.

"This is the first time I have seen such a large banquet hall." Qin Simian looked at it with curiosity.

Xiao Mo said with a smile: "We just rented a venue, it's not our own. Our banquet hall is smaller than this. Because today is an auction, we found a big place."

"What are you going to auction?" Shen Jiayan asked curiously.

"Some skill props, the kind that are not available on the market," Xiao Mo didn't say more specifically, and they wisely didn't ask further.

It's daytime now, and the auction will be held at night. Xiao Mo reminded them: "It's best to eat more now, because there will be no food at night."

Zhang Chang rubbed his belly: "Then I won't be polite."

"I asked you to come over, but I didn't intend to ask you to be polite to me."

Xiao Mo took them to dinner, and met Xiao Mo's father on the way, who also greeted them kindly.

Ning Yu looked here. This event held by the Xiao family, the Wei family, Xu family, and You family from Jinghai City also came over.

You Yunjia followed You Qingzhi, and there was Chen Jiao beside them.

Chen Jiao happened to look over, smiled and waved to Ning Yu, but he didn't come over and followed You Yunjia in.

"A lot of people came today."

At the dinner table, Xiao Mo also showed off his big ears without caring about his appearance.

He glanced at it: "Not only several beast master families from Jinghai City are here, but also other beast master families who have received the news."

Ning Yu turned around and saw the Zhou family and the Gu family in Guanghong City.

Gu Nanxiao, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, was there.

Xiao Mo seemed to have thought of something interesting and suddenly said: "The Zhou family in Guanghong City has undergone a major change in recent years."

"Huh?" Ning Yu was confused.

"You don't know, right? A few years ago, Zhou Xinrou, the eldest daughter of the Zhou family, sidelined Zhou Haodong and Zhou Yongliang and took the power by herself. Zhou Haodong was so angry that he suffered a stroke. He is still lying in the hospital." Yu was not familiar with other people, but he had some impression of Zhou Linyuan. He didn't expect that so many things happened in his family.

"After Miss Zhou came to power, she took her former brother Zhou Linyuan back to the Zhou family. I don't know what happened next."

After all, they were far away, so Xiao Mo also heard what others said and found it interesting so he wrote it down.

Ning Yu looked at the Zhou family. Zhou Xinrou took the wine glass, walked up to the others, greeted them with a smile, and touched the glasses gently.

"What about Zhou Yongliang?" Ning Yu asked curiously.

"He was sidelined and became an idle young master, but I think that was his original ambition, and it suits his heart."

Ning Yu was speechless, feeling a little dramatic for no reason.

"It's quite complicated." Zhang Chang said vaguely.

But one thing is that Zhou Xinrou is really powerful. She was originally trained by Zhou Haodong to work for Zhou Yongliang, but now she directly controls the Zhou family.

"It's pretty awesome." Qiao Yanxue nodded in agreement.

Because she had been with them for a long time, Qiao Yanxue's temperament was no longer as cold as before.

After Xiao Mo had eaten enough, he took a few of them around again.

Time passed quickly, the sky slowly turned dark, and the curtains were drawn down to block the auction box.

Among those who entered the venue at night, Ning Yu saw Fu Lingshan inside.

Fu Lingshan, still wearing a mask and with several people standing around him, came in from the gate and walked straight to a private room.

As if aware of Ning Yu's gaze, he looked over and nodded slightly.

Ning Jiu noticed: "Do you know that person?"

"know."

Ning Yu didn't say much about Fu Lingshan. Ning Jiu was not very curious about strangers and followed Ning Yu into the box.

The music slowly stopped, and Xiao Mo leaned on the railing with one hand and looked towards the auction table below.

The glass cabinet is empty, and the first prop has not been brought in yet.

"It's about to start." He said to the six people behind him.

Zhang Chang and Shen Jiayan came over, "Everyone who comes here is either rich or noble."

Shen Jiayan sighed, as expected of the Xiao family, which is rich and powerful.

"Some of them did not come in person, but had people come over to take the photos, but for those aristocratic families, the heads of the families all came."

Xiao Mo had seen the photos of those people, so he had an impression. However, most of the people present had people take photos on their behalf, which seemed very mysterious.

"There are also proxy shoots." Zhang Chang scratched his head, he really didn't know this.

"We put the link to the items for this auction at the end of the invitation. You probably didn't click on it to take a look, right?"

Ning Yu also fell silent. She didn't click on it. She didn't pay much attention at the time and just wanted to come over and take a look.

Xiao Mo smiled helplessly: "It's okay, it's almost the same. You can just look at the ones below now. If you have any that you like, you can tell me. It's not a problem to get one or two. There are a lot of props this time."

The Xiao family has been collecting for so long before organizing this auction, so it doesn't matter if he just gives away a few pieces.

That's what he said, but the other people were too embarrassed to ask for it, and they rarely use the props now.

Ning Yu felt that she was not needed. She had four pet beasts, and in a few months, there would be a fifth.
