Chapter 18 Top Auction

"Why are you crying suddenly? Did your brother do something wrong?"

Xiao Yun undoubtedly loved his sister very much. Seeing Xiao Xiao like this, he quickly hugged her gently in his arms and patted her back, "Don't cry, it won't look good if you cry anymore."

"Brother, do you still remember when Sister Le Xuan accompanied us to buy candied haws? You were not there at the time, and I talked to Sister Le Xuan. She told me that if you have someone you like in the future, you will treat her well. So now that you have Yuner, does that mean you will no longer like Xiao Xiao?"

Xiaoxiao pouted. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. Tears kept falling like crazy.

"How is that possible? No matter when, in my brother's heart, Xiao Xiao will always be the one and only one." Xiao Yun wiped the tears from his sister's pretty face and smiled slightly, "Besides, Xiao Xiao will meet someone she likes in the future, but so what? We are still brother and sister, and we are still the closest people in this world."

"I don't want to like anyone else, I just want a brother~"

"Silly girl."

Xiao Yun patted Xiao Xiao's little head, and the latter recovered after Xiao Yun's comfort. "I know, Xiao Xiao will not be like this again in the future. Brother, let's go, don't let Yuner wait too long."

This girl has really grown up.

Looking at his sister with emotion, Xiao Yun smiled, held his sister's hand tightly, and the brother and sister walked side by side towards the backyard.

For two days, Xiao Yun, Xiao Xiao and Nanmen Yuner's life was still the same as before. The only difference was that Nanmen Yuner followed Xiao Yun back to Xiao's house to have a meal.

This made Xiao Yang and Shen Wanqing so happy that they simply abandoned their two precious children and kept picking up food for Nammen Yoona.

Nammon Yoona is shy by nature, and was treated so warmly by Xiao Yun's parents. If Xiao Yun hadn't been there to smooth things over, Nammon Yoona would probably have felt even more uncomfortable.

However, Nammen Yoona could also feel that Xiao Yun's parents liked her, so after the embarrassment, she listened obediently to what the couple said to her.

Nammon Yoona was very happy to be treated as the future daughter-in-law like this.

After spending two days like this, Xiao Yun and Xiao Xiao followed the city lord to the largest auction house in Maple Leaf City at his invitation.

"This auction house is jointly owned by me and the royal family. The royal family is responsible for collecting money, and I am responsible for management." The city lord looked at Xiao Yun on the side and said.

Looking at the six-story building in front of him, Xiao Yun did not say a word.

"Don't think that our original three countries are in a hostile relationship with the Sun-Moon Empire on the surface. In fact, except for the Xingluo Empire, the two countries of Tianhun and Douling do not have much resentment towards the Sun-Moon. After all, if we want to develop faster, we have to rely on the resources of the Sun-Moon Empire." The city lord said with a smile.

Xiao Yun nodded, "You are right. No matter what, future development will be based on soul guides. The Sun and Moon Empire is the one that has the most advanced soul guide technology. The actions of the Sky Soul Empire and the Douling Empire are understandable. However, the Sky Soul Empire's pursuit should not be just simple development, right?"

"This has nothing to do with us. In this era, it's good enough to live a stable life on the border. As for those national affairs, we can't interfere." The city lord patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder, "Let's go, instead of thinking about unrealistic things here, why not go in and see what this auction house is like. After all, it's under my uncle's management."

"You are showing off your wealth to me."

"Haha, as long as you marry Yuner in the future, won't this place be yours in the future?"

".Can you please stop bringing this up?" After entering the auction house, Xiao Yun finally understood why the city lord was so proud of this place. Although he was just a manager on behalf of others, it was undoubtedly his contribution to make this auction house what it is now. After all, this is Maple Leaf City, and he is the city lord of Maple Leaf City. The royal family only invested money at most, and the city lord was the one who really controlled this place.

From the outside, the building looks like it is made of polished stones, but once you walk in, the interior is magnificent and golden, as if you have walked into a palace.

What caught my eye was a long staircase, with a young girl in a white short skirt standing at each end. The girl's figure and appearance were undoubtedly of the highest quality, and her every glance and smile were full of charm.

Obviously, these girls must have been trained since childhood and released only when they are ready.

"Lord City Lord, you are here."

A soft and charming voice came from the stairs, and a beautiful young woman in a red slim dress and long wavy hair walked down slowly, pursing her red lips.

A smile appeared on the city lord's face, but Xiao Yun noticed that although his expression changed, his eyes remained clear.

The young woman came in front of the group, first winked at Xiao Yun who was standing beside her, then naturally placed her hand on the city lord's arm, "I haven't seen you for so long, I miss you so much."

"Yunyan, how is business lately?" The city lord didn't buy her talk at all, but he didn't stop her. He just let the young woman sit next to him and talk casually.

The young woman named Yunyan seemed to be used to the city lord's behavior. She glared at the city lord with a little resentment, and then spoke carefully, "We made a lot of money at the auction last month. The soul guides we imported from the Sun Moon Empire have a good reputation, which can be regarded as a reputation for Master Gu's arrival in advance. I believe that we will make more money today, not less."

"Very good. No matter what, our main goal is to make money. We should not get involved in other things if we can." At this point, the city lord glanced at Yunyan and said, "I heard that someone from the royal family seemed to have left Tiandou City not long ago. Are they planning to participate in this auction?"

"You are talking about the princess that His Majesty loves the most, right? Yes, according to our spies outside, Princess Vina should have entered the city half a day ago."

The city lord narrowed his eyes slightly, "Such important news, why did you wait until I came to know it?"

"I just feel that you shouldn't be the one worrying about everything. As your subordinates, we also have to share your worries, don't we?" Yunyan blinked her charming eyes, her eyes were like water, full of infinite tenderness.

The city lord snorted coldly, "Anyway, I don't like this kind of situation to happen again in the future. In any case, I need to know about this situation as soon as possible."

"I know. Don't be angry."

Yunyan said coquettishly.

"But I didn't expect that an auction would actually involve a princess. Vina? I remember that she seemed to have a high rank in the royal family."

"Yes, according to our investigation, this Princess Vina is very talented. Not only does she have twin martial spirits, but she also possesses a rare body martial spirit." Yun Yan said in a delicate voice. Generally speaking, if such intelligence can be obtained, there is only one possibility, that is, it was actively spread by the royal family.

The city lord naturally thought of this, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "It's really interesting. He took the initiative to expose his outstanding talent. Is it because this Vina will be the first heir in the future, or is it just a cover to attract attention from all parties?"

"I am getting more and more confused about the behavior of the royal family, no, I should say the current situation of the mainland."
