Chapter 22 The Appreciation Meeting Begins

Shen Wanjun and Xue Chen had no idea about the secret activities and transactions between Zhenbaoxuan and Jindian families. After eating together in the restaurant, Xue Chen took a taxi back to his residence.
Unscrewing the door with the key, and as soon as he turned on the light, Xue Chen saw Ning Xuanxuan's charming face with a smile on her face, looking straight at him. He was suddenly startled and couldn't help but take half a step back. At the same time, he was surprised and said: "Sister Xuan, come here when you come. Why don't you turn on the light? You are not being a thief."
Ning Xuanxuan snorted: "If I were really a thief, I would have to leave in tears when I come to your place. Look at your place, there is not even a single valuable thing."
When Xue Chen heard this, his hair was black. He was convinced by Ning Xuanxuan's little mouth. It looked very beautiful and alluring, but what he said was really damaging.
"Besides, what are you, a grown man, afraid of? I won't eat you." Ning Xuanxuan continued, minding her own business.
Upon hearing this, Xue Chen couldn't help but take a look at Ning Xuanxuan and saw that she was wearing a fiery red dress and a leather belt of the same color, cinching her amazingly slender waist, fully demonstrating her voluptuous and graceful figure. , the small piece of breast muscle still exposed on the front of the dress is even more dazzling white under the light, which is eye-catching.
A wave of heat rose uncontrollably in his lower abdomen, and Xue Chen couldn't help but mutter: "I want to eat you..."
Ning Xuanxuan saw Xue Chen's mouth moving but heard no sound, and couldn't help but asked suspiciously: "Xue Chen, what did you say?"
"Ah? Haha, I said, it's so late, why would Sister Xuan come to my place?"
Xue Chen laughed and changed the topic, "Well, let's talk about it first. First, I have already paid you this month's room fee. Second, don't use me as a shield."
"Looking at what you said, isn't it okay? Sister Xuanxuan can't come and sit here and chat with you? This really makes Sister Xuanxuan sad." Ning Xuanxuan sighed long and shook her head. , the pretty face is sad.
Seeing Ning Xuanxuan like this, Xue Chen rubbed his nose in embarrassment: "Sister Xuanxuan, that's not what I meant..."
Before Xue Chen could finish his words, Ning Xuanxuan, who had been feeling sad and depressed just now, smiled sweetly and said, "However, I came to you because I really need your help with something."
"ah?"
The corner of Xue Chen's mouth twitched involuntarily, "Sister Xuan, can you stop breathing so much when you speak? My heart can't bear it. Also, have you ever learned face-changing in Sichuan Opera?"
Ning Xuanxuan ignored Xue Chen's sarcasm at all, and a serious expression appeared on her fair and delicate face: "Xue Chen, I know that you have a high level of appreciation of antiques. I came to you because I want you to help me choose one. An antique calligraphy and painting as a gift for my grandpa’s eightieth birthday.”
Hearing this, Xue Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This is not difficult. As long as you have money, you can buy it in any reputable antique shop."
"It's not that simple. Everyone in the family knows grandpa's preferences. There are at least dozens of antiques, calligraphy and paintings in the birthday gift. I hope that the gift I gave can stand out among the many gifts and please grandpa the most." Ning Xuanxuan frowned. He lowered his nose and said seriously.
Xue Chen put his hands behind his head, leaned on the sofa, and said thoughtfully: "In my opinion, the gift is not whether it is expensive or bad, but the most important thing is the intention. When the intention comes, the old man will naturally be happy and like it."
Xue Chen said casually, but Ning Xuanxuan listened very seriously, with deep thoughts in her eyes. Suddenly, she clenched her fists and palms together, and said with bright eyes: "I know what to do!"
"I was shocked." Xue Chen shook his head and was speechless.
After getting what she wanted, Ning Xuanxuan immediately stood up from the sofa and walked elegantly towards the door. The moment before leaving, she suddenly looked back and said with a smile: "Xue Chen, please help me come up with this idea."
In return, I allow you to accompany me to my grandpa's birthday party, that's it, little brother, good night."
"What? Sister, I never said I wanted to participate. Did you make a mistake?" Xue Chen was about to cry without tears. He stretched out his right hand in a vain attempt to catch Ning Xuanxuan who was about to leave.
The door panel slammed shut, and Ning Xuanxuan heard Xue Chen's wails coming from the room, let out a series of sweet and sweet laughter like wind chimes, and left with an enchanting figure.

The largest banquet hall on the 18th floor of the Jinjue Hotel was booked, and the hosts were the three largest pawn shops on Yongtai Street and the three largest pawn shops in Haicheng City, Daxing, Zhenbaoxuan and Jindian.
The purpose is to hold an antique appreciation meeting that is very famous in the antique circle of Yunzhou Province. If you have never been there, you will be embarrassed to say that you are a fan of antiques.
Big collectors, antique dealers and antique shop owners all caught wind of the situation and arrived early at the venue on the 18th floor of the Jinjue Hotel. Before ten o'clock in the morning, no less than 200 people had gathered.
As the saying goes, gold in troubled times and antiques in prosperous times. After reform and opening up, the economy has developed, antiques and antiques have become more and more popular, and more and more people have entered this circle.
There are successful businessmen in suits and ties, there are also old men in green jackets holding walnuts in their hands, and there are also senior officials and leaders with impressive bearings who are in charge of confidential departments. They are all gathered in twos and threes, according to their own small circles.
Together, talking and laughing.
Xue Chen followed Shen Wanjun and Shen Zixi to the Jinjue Hotel. As soon as he walked into the venue on the 18th floor, a wave of noise rushed towards him. He saw more than 200 people bustling about, and listened to the hum of high-pitched talks. His heart skipped a beat.
Wow, I didn’t expect so many people to come.
"Wan Jun, here you go."
"Boss Shen, long time no see."
"Brother Shen, it's been great lately. Zi Xi is here too."
When Shen Wanjun appeared, people who were familiar with him came up to say hello, and Shen Wanjun responded to them one by one with a smile on his face.
"Boss Shen is here. I'm really worried that you won't come. I heard that you fired Huang Pinqing two days ago and replaced him with a kid who just graduated from college as the chief appraiser. You changed the general at the last minute, but the big boss
Taboo."
A man with a dark face, a stocky body, and thick hands and feet, wearing a white satin sweatshirt and a pair of loose black trousers, who looked about fifty years old, approached with a smile.
Xue Chen took a look at this man and recognized that he was Shan Yunhai, the owner of Jindian Pawn Shop. He heard that this man was originally an antique dealer who practiced stalls, and gradually became bigger and opened Jindian Pawn Shop. He was very capable.
one person.
"Since Boss Shan has the courage to come, why don't I, Shen, come? As for whether to replace someone, that is our internal matter within Daxing, and Boss Shan does not need to care." Shen Wanjun stopped his smile and replied very forcefully.
When Shan Yunhai heard this, his eyes darkened and he turned to look at Sun Jinyang who was walking over from the other side.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, I don't think we should waste everyone's time and let's start quickly." Sun Jinyang didn't seem to see Xue Chen, just staring at Shen Wanjun, with a cold expression hidden under his calm face.
"Okay." Shen Wanjun raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice.
When they heard that the appreciation party was about to begin, the guests present became enthusiastic.
Some guests noticed Xue Chen standing next to Shen Wanjun, realized that he was the appraiser representative of Daxing, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Feeling the attention in the eyes, Xue Chen gently licked his dry lips. After all, it was the first time for him to stand on the stage where so many people were paying attention. It would be impossible to say that he was not nervous at all. . But when he felt the black ancient jade that was worn close to his body and exuded a slight coolness, he quickly calmed down.
Before the conference started, he took a look at the entire banquet hall and saw a long table of about three meters standing in the direction of the rostrum. On the long table were five small signs, which marked the five famous people in Haicheng. The title of senior in the antiques circle is obviously the seat of the five judges.
Soon, amidst the commotion, a beautiful figure walked onto the podium, and it turned out to be a female host with a microphone in her hand.
The female host is about 1.7 meters tall and has a model-like figure. She wears a silver-gray women's suit and a tight hip-hugging skirt on her curvy body. She wears bright red high-heeled shoes at her feet. Viewed from the side, her entire body looks... She has a perfect S shape. Moreover, her facial features are exquisite, her cheeks are as white as jade, she wears elegant gold-rimmed glasses on her straight bridge of nose, and her dark hair is tied into a bun with a jade hairpin, which makes her look very intellectual.
The male guests in the audience, young and old, couldn't help but take a closer look, while the female guests inevitably felt a sense of inferiority and jealousy.
Xue Chen also glanced at the eye-catching host, and then glanced at Shen Zixi who was next to Shen Wanjun, and secretly compared them. The two women seemed to have their own merits.
Although the female host on the stage has a hot figure and is sexy and charming, Shen Zixi, who is wearing a purple dress, is not inferior either. She exudes an intellectual beauty, as if she came out of an ancient painting.
At this time, the female host said with a smile: "Dear distinguished guests, hello everyone, I am Lin Xirong, a reporter from Haicheng Evening News. I am honored to be invited to be the host of this antique appreciation event. The appreciation event is about to begin. For now, please keep quiet and thank you for your cooperation."
At the request of such a beautiful woman, the noisy venue quickly became quiet and everyone sat down at the guest seats.
"Now, I announce that the 8th Yongtai Street Antique Appreciation Fair has begun. I would like to invite five judges to come to the rostrum as the judges of this conference. They are Mr. Chen Suyuan, the honorary president of the Haicheng City Antiquities Association, and Mr. Chen Suyuan, the honorary president of the Haicheng City Calligraphy and Painting Association. Mr. Liu Ming, President of Haicheng City Antique Collectors Association, Ms. Zhao Yun, Vice Chairman of Haicheng City Antique Collectors Association, Haicheng City Museum..."
