The threatening words rang out from Zhang Youming's mouth. Until this moment, his face was still aching. If Ngee Antang hadn't suddenly intervened, he would have killed Lin Pingfan even if he didn't attend the auction today!
On the side, Yu Mengtong also sneered and sneered, and then echoed: "Haha, do you think you have the face of a branch!?"
"I don't need any pass. As long as Zhang Fenhui swipes his face, I can follow him in!"
"You're a waste from Haizhou. It's a great honor for you to have a pass!"
Qian Yuehan bit her lips lightly, with an apology on her white face. If she hadn't insisted on staying and accompanying Lin Pingfan to attend the auction, Lin Pingfan wouldn't be ridiculed now.
"Brother Pingfan, why don't you go by yourself? Ziyu and I are waiting for you at the hotel!"
She gently tugged on Lin Pingfan's sleeve and whispered.
Lin Pingfan's face gradually became gloomy. He took out his cell phone and dialed Lu Jinquan's number.
"Let this gentleman bring his friends in."
Suddenly, Ge Futang's voice sounded behind Lin Pingfan.
Miss etiquette was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly: "Yes, Vice-Tang Ge."
Immediately, she said politely to Lin Pingfan: "Sir, you can bring your friends in with you."
Lin Pingfan nodded, and at the same time nodded towards Ge Futang, indicating that he was satisfied with his approach.
"Ge Tiangao! Are you deliberately going against me?"
"The rules of the auction will be broken if you say they are broken!?"
"If you don't give me an explanation today, I won't give up!"
Seeing Lin Pingfan leading people into the hall, Zhang Youming suddenly became furious. He had already lost face, but in the end he didn't even keep the last trace of thin noodles. How could he be willing to do so!
At this moment, Ge Tiangao felt helpless. He didn't want to start a fight, after all, he had offended Zhang Youming before.
But when he saw Lin Pingfan's gloomy face, he thought of Gu Suishan's order not to anger this person, so he spoke out to help Lin Pingfan out.
"Branch Zhang, you misunderstood. I have no intention of going against you."
"The people who can come to the auction are all businessmen and celebrities who are recognized by Ngee Antang. That gentleman attended the auction for the first time and was surrounded by such thugs. This is our mistake at Ngee Antang."
"So we need to give that gentleman some compensation, and I ask Branch Zhang to understand."
After speaking, Ge Tiangao ignored Zhang Youming's gloomy expression and entered the hall directly.
"Branch Zhang, don't be angry!"
"The grievances between the Lotus Society and Ngee Ann Tong have long been deep-rooted."
"Even if the ancient hall master has a good relationship with you, his subordinates still hate the Lotus Society."
"Don't ruin your relationship with the ancient hall master because of a loser. When the auction ends, Lin Pingfan will die!"
At this moment, Yu Mengtong comforted Zhang Youming with a cold face, while at the same time she glared fiercely at Lin Pingfan's back with a pair of cold and beautiful eyes!
…
Lin Pingfan and three others walked into the elevator under the leadership of the service staff.
However, they did not go directly to the top floor, but were taken to a room on other floors.
There are uniform costumes and masks in the room, which need to be worn by merchants and celebrities participating in the auction.
This is why Ngee Antang is protecting these businessmen and celebrities.
To prevent some people with ulterior motives from secretly snatching the items after the auction.
Time was very tight. After Lin Pingfan and the other three changed into uniforms and put on their masks, they were led to the top floor of Cuihe Building by the service staff and assigned to the last row.
The decoration of the auction site was very luxurious, with hundreds of seats in the hall alone, and temporary private rooms surrounding it.
An auction table was set up at the top of the hall, and an old man wearing a mask stood on the auction table, waiting for the auction time to arrive.
At eight o'clock on time, the lights were turned off, and the bright hall instantly fell into darkness, except for the dazzling light on the auction stage.
"Welcome all businessmen and celebrities to participate in this auction!"
"On behalf of Ngee Antang Hall, I would like to thank you for your support. The items in this auction will definitely make your eyes shine..."
The old man was the host of the auction, and he spoke endlessly about the opening remarks.
"Brother Pingfanfan, are you interested in anything good at this auction?" Qian Yuehan lowered his voice and asked in a low voice. After all, Lin Pingfanfan was very determined to participate in this auction.
Lin Pingfan thought for a while and said with a smile: "I'm just here to join in the fun."
"Humph, I knew I was just joining in the fun, but it dragged us two weak women into danger!" Zhou Ziyu complained dissatisfiedly at the side!
"Xiao Han, anyone who can come to the provincial capital auction must be wealthy. Not just any businessman can participate!"
"Even if Yu Mengtong is very powerful in Haizhou!? I'm just here to watch the excitement. It's said that the auction items here can fetch billions, or even over 10 billion!"
"This scumbag is not just here to join in the fun, is he really here to take pictures of things!?"
Zhou Ziyu had a very strong opinion of Lin Pingfan. She always felt that Lin Pingfan was very purposeful in approaching Qian Yuehan and was willing to show off himself in front of them both.
Especially when he met Tang Zhengzheng, he uncharacteristically broke his indifference and stared directly at him. Therefore, the label of scumbag has been firmly established by Zhou Ziyu!
"Oh Ziyu, don't say that to Brother Pingfan. Even if you are just joining in the fun, we have learned a lot!" Qian Yuehan came to Lin Pingfan's rescue again, hoping to change Zhou Ziyu's impression of him.
After all, Lin Pingfan is single now, and maybe she might be with him, so she still needs to make her best friend change her mind!
While a few people were talking, the auction started.
A beautiful woman wearing a cheongsam and a mask pushed a trolley onto the auction stage.
There is an exquisite blue and white porcelain plate on the cart.
"This is the first auction item today. It is a blue and white porcelain from the Qing Dynasty. It is completely preserved and has not been damaged at all."
"It was obtained from a certain tomb by a gold-touching captain. It cannot be released into the world, so it is auctioned here!"
"The starting price is 5 million, and the price will increase by 100,000 each time!"
The old man’s old voice was sonorous and powerful, and he introduced the items in a rich and profound way.
"Six million."
Someone raised the price and directly increased the price by one million, which surprised many people...
Time passed little by little, and the auction items gradually moved from the first blue and white porcelain plate to high-end ones.
Even Qingming's Notes from Country R were included in this auction.
Even Lin Pingfan couldn't help but feel a little moved.
The Seimei Letters were enshrined at Yasushi Shrine until they were lost three years ago, and their whereabouts have been unknown ever since. I never expected that they would appear here today!
With the appearance of Qingming's manuscript, the auction gradually reached its climax, and the price soared to 170 million.
However, Lin Pingfan never took action from beginning to end. He was waiting for the Lin family's jade seal to appear.
