Author: Chengxia MACHINE TRANSLATION
After nightfall, the Grand Auction, which attracted countless stares, had completely opened its curtains. Red Carpets covered the ground, flowers and balloons stood in rows, and luxurious cars stopped and drove away One by one, men, women, old and young, who were dressed luxuriously and looked extraordinary, entered in groups of small talk, or men and women walked slowly into the auction hall.
Many people had already taken their seats in the three-story, zigzagging attic of the auction hall. There were also many people standing in the hall on the first floor, chatting and exchanging small talk. Waiters dressed neatly shuttled in and out of the hall, Serving Cups of cocktails or tea The people who took their seats were all served hot towels and delicious fruits.
Although these things were common and ordinary in the upper-class society, such thoughtful service still made the eyes of many people light up. The people outside the door watched the excitement and novelty while the people inside the door secretly had their minds on it.
It was not that they had never enjoyed such thoughtful service, but it was rare to see it in the country. Other than the more famous hotels in the first-class cities, they did not expect such a first-class service to appear in this third-tier city This had to make some people pay attention in their hearts. They were also a little more cautious in their curiosity towards the behind-the-scenes boss.
However, that was not all. When they saw the guests appear one after another, everyone who had already arrived looked at them in surprise. They were shocked that this auction could attract so many powerful people.
The old man who was personally led by the general manager of the auction house was dressed in a simple grey Chinese tunic suit. Not only did he not give off an ordinary feeling, but he also gave off a strong scholarly aura Even though his face was full of wrinkles, he did not have the fatigue of an old man. Instead, he had the elegance of a man who had accumulated over the years. His eyes were bright as if they were filled with worldly knowledge. This was not the famous master of the Chinese literary world.. Who else could old master Qin be?
Everyone shifted their gaze to his side again, and in an instant, their eyes lit up. It was because that young man was too gentle and noble, which made people unable to help but feel sentimental at the same time. Those who knew naturally knew that he was old master Qin’s grandson After all, it was no secret that the mayor of Mingli City had a famous father in the literary world who was not involved in the political situation. Those who did not know could understand after thinking about it. Those who could follow old master Qin were naturally members of the Qin family.
Many people went forward and surrounded old master Li for a round of greetings. When Chen Liangjun saw this, he was about to turn around and go to the door. He did not forget that there was an even more important person who had not arrived yet, but who knew that.. Old Master Li, who was surrounded by people, actually had the time to call out to him loudly.
“President Chen, don’t forget that girl is here. Bring her over. This old man will wait for her. ” His tone was refined and polite, but no matter how one looked at it, it sounded like he was hopping around.
Those who did not understand what was going on were all suspicious. Could it be that she was the daughter of a wealthy family If that was really the case… …
Everyone’s expressions were different. They glanced at the young man who was as gentle as jade with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but had an imperceptible sense of aloofness. Could it be that old master Qin had already taken a liking to this person? …
Chen Liangjun’s eyes twitched when he heard that. He nodded with a smile. “I will definitely pass on the message for you, old master. ” After he said that, he politely nodded his head and took large strides to leave. His footsteps were a little hurried, as if he was afraid that the old man behind him would get angry.
Old Master Qin stared at Chen Liangjun’s back as he left quickly. The villain in his heart was boiling. “What a good kid! You actually dare to deceive me, old master! ”
Unfortunately, no matter how happy the villain in his heart was, he had to face the greetings of the crowd with a smile on his face… …
As if they felt that elder Qin’s shock alone was not big enough, the crowd saw the general manager leading a group of old men in. Everyone’s eyes widened again. This… …
These were the old men from the Beijing Antiques Association. They were highly respected and respected in the Chinese antiques world. Today, they were actually allowed to see the real person here. It was not on television or in the newspapers, but in person. Many people surrounded him to greet him.. Chen Liangjun left silently once again.
With the arrival of many powerful people or representatives from Mingli City, including the famous and influential people from province Y, and even some famous families from other provinces, everyone was shocked Who was the new owner of this auction house It had attracted so many powerful people.
It was not that no one had asked Chen Liangjun about it, but the answer they received was either a faint smile or an unbearable sentence.
“when the time is right, our boss will naturally appear in front of everyone. ”
The time was right?
When was the time right?
Could it be that they were waiting for the auction to begin?
However, no matter what everyone thought, Chen Liangjun refused to reveal any unnecessary information. Everyone was helpless against him at the moment. They couldn’t possibly threaten and entice him in front of everyone, right… …
The auction started at eight o’clock in the evening. At this time, there were still twenty minutes before the auction started. Most of the people in the venue had already arrived. Three people were huddled together in groups of five as they chatted. There were people on the first, second, and third floors in twos and threes Because the entire building was in a zigzag shape and had an ancient style, other than the private rooms, there were also seats in the corridor beside the corridor. Similarly, the scene on the high platform on the first floor could be clearly seen.
People like elder Qin naturally went to the private rooms on the second floor. Just as they were about to go upstairs and sit down, they heard an uproar behind them. They looked over and saw an old man dressed in a dark red Tang suit standing beside Chen Liangjun. He looked slim and tall Even elder Qin was shocked.
As if he didn’t believe that the old man who was slowly walking towards them was the richest man in China, he blinked his eyes childishly and saw the old man smiling. He looked neat and kind His Aura was extraordinary, but he didn’t give people a sense of oppression or aloofness. Finally, he opened his mouth in shock.
“elder… Elder Li… ”
That’s right, the person who caused the uproar was elder Li. The person beside him was still Li Rongyi. This time, the crowd didn’t go up to greet him like before because not everyone had the right to go up and greet him Don’t look at the smile on elder Li’s face. He was amiable and amiable without any distance between them. The crowd would not forget his identity that made people look up to him and fear him.
Only a few people with some status went up to express their admiration and admiration. The others all stood rooted to the ground and watched. They did not blink for a moment, afraid that the blink of an eye would be nothing more than a dream Today, all of them were actually fortunate enough to be face to face with this old man and be in the same place. It was truly a blessing in three lifetimes.
Elder Li smiled as he looked at the few people who had come up to greet him. Among them were a few elders from the Beijing Antiques Association, as well as the representatives of some influential families in the first-tier cities. There was also elder Qin.
Elder Li greeted them one by one. This time, Chen Liangjun did not leave again. Instead, after elder Li finished greeting everyone, he personally led them to a private room on the third floor.
At this time, everyone had forgotten to think too much because they were shocked by elder Li’s appearance. However, after the auction ended, when everyone thought back, they were all looking forward to the behind-the-scenes boss of the Jun Lin Auction House.
Because everyone saw elder Li and Chen Liangjun’s interaction, it was obvious that they were personally invited by the mysterious owner behind the scenes. It was different from them who were invited because of the good stuff.
Xia Junhuang, Zhang Yu, and the others arrived at the entrance when elder Li went upstairs. A group of all kinds of dazzling and eye-catching sports cars stopped at the entrance of the auction house Other than Xia Junhuang, Zhang Yu, Ji Youyue, Lin Xiye, Qiao Xingli, Cheng Renyu, and Yu Shiyi, there were also quite a number of children from wealthy families who followed along.
When Chen Liangjun invited these families, he naturally reserved a private room for them. However, each private room had a maximum of eight people, so Xia Junhuang and Zhang Yu each had a private room, while the other children from wealthy families who came with them had a private room. At this point.. The private rooms on the second floor were all full, and only one private room was left empty on the third floor. It was not because there were no people, but because the person who had reserved this private room had not arrived yet.
That’s right, it was a reservation. This mysterious person was not within the scope of the auction house’s invitation. He had called in to request to participate in the auction and had reserved a private room. It seemed that this person did not like to be disturbed, and he was absolutely generous, just like throwing golden beans.. Therefore, in the end, Chen Liangjun left a private room on the third floor. Because he vaguely heard that this person had an extremely high status, and was also a foreigner, so he did not dare to be careless.
Xia Junhuang naturally knew about this and did not have any objections. She just told Chen Liangjun to pay more attention to see who it was.
