Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 462: Ruyuan Building, Inquiring for Information

He was wearing a dark brocade shirt today, which made his figure look tall and majestic. When he was in front of his subordinates, he exuded a subtle aura of oppression, making people afraid to get close to him.

He stopped and turned to look at her.

When the people accompanying her heard her address Yue Fuli, they knew her identity and could not help but bow to her.

"Yeah." He responded, his eyes wandering over her. Seeing that she was dressed warmly, he casually asked, "Where are you going?"

Although his voice was usually cold and quiet, this greeting made all his subordinates look at him with new eyes. You know, he usually doesn't like women, but now that he has a wife, it's different. However, since this new wife is extraordinary in appearance, it is understandable.

They lowered their eyes consciously, not daring to look any longer.

Si He was concerned about the presence of outsiders, so she said, "I heard there's a Ruyuan Tower in the city, so I wanted to go take a look."

Hearing this, he understood what she meant. Although Ruyuan Tower was an auction house, it was also a place where one could get information. She definitely did not go to Ruyuan Tower simply to take a look. This was mainly because she said last night that she wanted to find out the whereabouts of the black giant snake.

He didn't say anything else, as he had official business to attend to. He nodded and led his men towards the study in the mansion.

The group walked hurriedly, and judging from their expressions, the business they were discussing seemed to be quite important. Was there another incident in the surrounding area?

Si He stood at the door, watching Yue Fuli's figure walking away until he was out of sight. Then she withdrew her gaze, lowered the curtain of her veil, and walked towards the carriage waiting at the door.

After getting on the carriage, she asked Gao You about the situation around Wucheng. Gao You happened to know a lot about the situation, so she told him the general situation truthfully. Of course, they were all well-known things and there was no confidential information.

After listening to Gao You, Si He looked at Gao You thoughtfully and said, "You know a lot about Wucheng."

Gao You looked at her, and after a while, she replied, "I have been in the vicinity of Wucheng for a while."

Si He asked, "You and Gao Zi are not Sixth Brother's people, right?"

Yue Fuqi is the sixth child in the family. According to his current status, he should be called Sixth Brother. When he sent Gao You and Gao Zi to her, she initially thought they were his, but now it seems that they are not.

According to her understanding, Yue Fuqi's garrison was not in the vicinity of Wucheng, but was quite far away. Of course, it was not ruled out that he left his men here for other purposes.

As expected, Gao You replied, "No, Gao Zi and I are both under the command of the Fifth Young Master."

There is nothing to hide about this, especially since she is a lady now.

Si He nodded and said nothing. At this time, the carriage had stopped in front of the door of Ruyuan Tower.

Si He lowered the curtain of her veil and got off the carriage.

Because the carriage was hung with the family emblem of the Yue family, and there was a team of Yue family guards accompanying it, the unique guards' uniforms and majestic aura made them recognizable at a glance. The receptionist in front of Ruyuan Building hurriedly stepped forward enthusiastically. After all, the people of the Yue family were like local tyrants in Wucheng.

Of course, this is not just in Wucheng, the entire Jizhou is controlled by the Yue family.

This is a distinguished guest.

Yesterday, the news that Yue Fuli, the lord of the city, returned to the city with his wife spread throughout the entire Wucheng overnight. Now the Yue family's carriage arrived, and it was a female relative dressed in women's clothes. Although she was wearing a veil that covered her tightly, it was not difficult to guess her identity.

The clerk greeted her quickly, smiling, "Madam, you've arrived at the perfect time. We're having an auction right now, and there are quite a few valuable items. Please come in. We have private rooms upstairs."

Si He glanced at the enthusiastic waiter through the curtain, then looked up at the magnificent building in front of her.

This Ruyuan Building is located in the center of the street market. It has an excellent location and covers a large area. It is three stories high, with carved beams and painted buildings, and is magnificent.

The main gate is also built very tall, with a huge plaque hanging above the main gate. The three large gold-plated characters "Ruyuan Tower" are very conspicuous.

There are guards on both sides of the door, very strict.

Si He followed the waiter into the building. Once inside, what caught her eye was a luxurious and elegant decoration, with exquisitely carved doors and windows. The walls were also surrounded by beautiful colored glass lamps, which shone brightly when the lights swayed.

Every few steps in the building, there is a guard with a knife. They have cold eyes and carefully look at every guest who enters.

The building was bustling with people, yet orderly and lively.

After walking around a huge screen, the view suddenly opened up. There were many people sitting in the spacious auction hall, looking at the items being auctioned on the central platform.

There is a beautiful night pearl being auctioned now, and many people are considering making bids.

The lobby on the first floor has ordinary seats, while the second and third floors are private rooms, all of which are covered by screens and curtains.

Si He asked the waiter for a private room on the second floor, and the waiter took her upstairs. The only people accompanying them were Gao You, Gao Zi and a guard, while the other guards were waiting downstairs.

While walking up the stairs, Si He could feel through her veil that many eyes were looking at her, some from downstairs and some from upstairs.

She kept walking and, under the guidance of the waiter, came to a private room on the second floor with a good view. The surrounding private rooms were full and there were servants waiting at the door, which showed that the business here was good.

The guy led the way and explained the auction to her attentively, which was also very considerate of him.

Generally speaking, their attitude towards VIPs and ordinary guests is different.

The auction time is already halfway through, and it is estimated that the morning auction will end in more than half an hour. However, there is another auction in the afternoon.

Such a grand auction is held every ten days, only three times a month, not every day, so the guy said she happened to get there by chance.

After entering the private room, Si He took off her veil. The waiter was stunned at first glance when he saw her true appearance, but then he quickly lowered his eyes respectfully and asked, "Madam, what kind of tea would you like to drink? Or how many snacks would you like?"

As the waiter spoke, he handed over a menu and explained it in detail.

After Si He sat down, she took a look and casually ordered a pot of tea and some snacks.

The clerk handed her another auction list and explained the auction rules before leaving.

She looked through the auction list, which only indicated the name, reserve price and order of the auction items. It was relatively simple, and she would have to wait for the on-site introduction for details.

After a while, the waiter came over with tea and snacks, and also brought some exquisite cold dishes and fruits. It was obviously a special treat.

"Use it slowly."

Just as the waiter was about to leave, Si He said, "Hey waiter, I heard that you guys at Ruyuan Tower can get information, right?"
