"Xuanxuan, you look so beautiful today." Xu Ming said sincerely with a gentlemanly smile on his face.
If it were any other woman, being praised so much by the young master of Galaxy Industry, she would probably be intoxicated and unable to extricate herself from it. But Ning Xuanxuan didn't do this at all, and just put her arms around Xue Chen's arms more closely and affectionately, as if to say, "
I already have a wife, don't bother me." This made it difficult for Xu Ming not to pay attention to Xue Chen.
Xue Chen felt that his arm was faintly pressing against a plump mass, and a wave of heat suddenly surged in his heart. He couldn't help but slide his elbow slightly, and the soft and warm touch became clearer, making half of his body numb.
.
The smile on Ning Xuanxuan's charming face also faltered slightly, and her face instantly turned a little rosy, making her look even more enchanting and bright.
When Xu Ming saw Xue Chen, the handsome smile on his face condensed slightly, and he said in a playful tone: "Xue Chen, long time no see, how are you doing lately?"
"It's great. I won a bonus of one million. I fall asleep with joy almost every day." Xue Chen said with a smile.
As soon as Xue Chen mentioned the bonus, the fire in Xu Ming's heart started to boil, and he said coldly: "I hope you can continue to have fun."
"Xuanxuan, the auction is about to begin. I'll treat you to dinner after the meeting." After Xu Ming finished speaking, he turned and left.
Seeing that Xu Ming was gone, Ning Xuanxuan also withdrew the arm holding Xue Chen, and made an intimate 360-degree rotational contact with the soft flesh of Xue Chen's waist.
"Hey, Sister Xuan, why are you pinching me?" Xue Chen took a breath and gritted his teeth in pain.
"You still ask? You know it in your heart." Ning Xuanxuan said angrily.
"Ahem, you two, I'm still here, please don't flirt in front of me, a bachelor, okay? My little heart is very hurt." Fatty Wang put on a pitiful look.
"Whoever flirts with him, Wang Dong, please don't talk nonsense." Ning Xuanxuan raised her eyebrows.
"Okay, the auction is about to start, let's go and sit down." Xue Chen said.
The three of them came to the auction table and found three chairs next to each other and sat down.
Along the way, Xue Chen also met several familiar collectors from Haicheng City and greeted each other.
When the seats in the auction venue were almost full, a woman wearing a small black suit walked onto the auction stage.
"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, I am the auctioneer of this auction..."
The woman first introduced the organizer of the auction, read out the rules of the auction, and then started the formal auction session.
It has to be said that this auctioneer's level is very high. He raised the atmosphere of the entire auction site with just a few words, and each item sold at a very high price.
Seeing this situation, Xu Ming, Cai Youde, and Huang Jingming in the background showed a satisfied smile on their faces.
When a painting by a Qing Dynasty painter appeared on the auction stage, Ning Xuanxuan participated in raising the placard. After several rounds, the price of the auction rose from 50,000 to 550,000.
Xue Chen couldn't help but lament that it was really "inhumane". The other bidders increased their bids by ten thousand each time, but Ning Xuanxuan directly raised their bids by fifty thousand. The increase of fifty thousand surpassed everyone in terms of momentum.
"It's here, grandpa's commission is completed." When the auctioneer dropped the hammer three times, Ning Xuanxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Each auction item was sold at a high price. When the auctioneer announced that the last three auction items would be auctioned, more than three hours had passed in the auction, and Xue Chen also cheered up.
The first two final auction items were finally sold for 3.95 million and 4.1 million respectively after raising the placards again and again!
"The following item is also the last auction item in the auction. It is a blue and white porcelain vase from the Meng Jiangnu Crying Great Wall from the Kangxi official kiln in the Qing Dynasty. The starting price is 2.3 million yuan. Please raise your placard to bid."
Wang Dong rubbed his hands: "Old Xue, do we have to make a bid?"
"Don't worry, it's not too late to raise your sign when the price goes up." Xue Chen said calmly.
"You really want to take a picture of this blue and white porcelain?" Ning Xuanxuan said in surprise.
As the last item to be auctioned, and it was a blue and white porcelain from the official kiln of the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, the auction price soared upwards. In almost the blink of an eye, the price crossed the three million mark.
The 3.5 million line was quickly stepped on. When the price reached 4 million, the speed of raising cards slowed down slightly.
Wang Dong swallowed hard and said: "Old Xue, do we really want to fight with them?"
Xue Chen glanced at the people who were still bidding, and suddenly noticed that one of the bidders was actually Qi Hu, and the bid was very fierce, as if he was bound to win.
There was a thought in his mind, and he quickly started to think about it, "Dongzi, let's take a look, there is no need to raise the sign for the time being."
Qi Hu, as the owner of a splendid nightclub and a wealthy owner, finally bought this blue and white porcelain vase from the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty for a high price of 4.37 million after more than 20 rounds of bidding.
“Very good, the whole process was perfect!”
Seeing that the auction ended perfectly without any accidents, Xu Ming couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally successfully completed what his father had assigned him, and he could explain it to the board of directors.
Cai Youde and Huang Jingming also looked happy and were satisfied with the success of the auction.
"Mr. Cai, Mr. Huang, this auction went very successfully. I suggest that we hold a celebration party in the evening and invite people from all walks of life to participate, so as to enhance the company's reputation." Xu Ming suggested.
"Okay, I will follow Mr. Xu's arrangements." Cai Youde and Huang Jingming both agreed happily.
After the auction, Xue Chen sent Ning Xuanxuan home first.
Ning Xuanxuan got out of the car, smoothed the wind-blown hair around her ears, looked at Xue Chen and said, "Xue Chen, my grandfather said he wanted to meet you."
"See me?" Xue Chen was a little surprised.
"Well, don't worry, I just want to see you, don't be nervous." Ning Xuanxuan waved her hand.
"Hey, I haven't agreed yet. Your grandfather wanted to see me, but I didn't say I wanted to see him. Besides, I'm not going to meet my future father-in-law. Why should I be nervous?" Xue Chen curled his lips.
said.
Fatty Wang on the side muttered: "Old Xue, you have mistaken the seniority. He should be my father-in-law's father."
Ning Xuanxuan first glared at Wang Dong fiercely, and then said to Xue Chen in a threatening tone: "Stop talking nonsense, are you going?"
"It depends on my mood, see you later." Xue Chen stepped on the accelerator and drove away, leaving Ning Xuanxuan standing there alone with her hands on her hips angrily.
Xue Chen was driving on the road, and Wang Dong on the side patted him on the shoulder: "Old Xue, what are you thinking about? You were stunned. I called you several times."
"Oh, I was thinking about something just now, what happened?" Xue Chen came back to his senses.
Wang Dong said speechlessly: "Old Xue, you have gone the wrong way. This is not the way back to the store."
"I know, let's go back to the store first. Let's go eat first." Xue Chen looked at the road ahead and said thoughtfully.
"That's okay. I'm really hungry. Where can I eat? Oh, I can't eat anymore when I think about the business in the store." Fatty Wang patted his belly and shook his head.
"Normally I can eat ten bowls of rice, but now I can only eat five bowls, right?" Xue Chen said with a smile.
"Damn, you kid is still in the mood to make fun of me." Fatty Wang was so depressed.
"I originally planned to treat you to a feast at Jinbihuihuang, but since you have no appetite, let's forget it." Xue Chen said regretfully.
Wang Dong suddenly became energetic when he heard about the splendor: "I'm sad, but people are like iron rice and steel. Only when you have eaten enough can you continue to deal with Baozhai. We have agreed, Jin Jijing is your treat."
"No problem." Xue Chen agreed happily.
The two arrived at the magnificent building. When they were in the lobby, they met the lobby manager, and Xue Chen specially said hello.
Naturally, being the manager of the magnificent lobby is no ordinary person. He recognized Xue Chen at first sight. I remember the last time their President Qi personally presented a plate of lobster and even gave me a free order. He is a friend of President Qi!
The lobby manager first escorted the two of them into the private room very enthusiastically, helped them order the food, and then left. After thinking about it, he came to the general manager's office on the fifteenth floor and told Qi Hu that Xue Chen was dining downstairs.
"Xue Chen, is he here?" Qi Hu, who was sitting behind the desk, his eyes lit up and immediately ordered to go down and wait for Xue Chen to finish his meal and invite him to his office.
Xue Chen and Wang Dong had a hearty meal. As soon as they arrived at the lobby after the meal, the lobby manager immediately greeted Xue Chen and told Xue Chen that Qi Hu was waiting for him in the office.
Xue Chen's heart moved and he thought to himself: "He's here indeed." What he was waiting for was Qi Hu asking him to come over and meet!
Arriving on the fifteenth floor, Xue Chen arrived at Qi Hu's large office under the guidance of his secretary.
"Brother Xue, sit down quickly, sit down quickly, come here to eat without saying hello, if the lobby manager hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known." Qi Hu said enthusiastically,
Xue Chen replied with a smile: "My friends and I came over for a casual meal. I thought that Brother Qi is usually very busy at work, so I didn't plan to bother him."
"You're out of town, aren't you?" Qi Hu made a straight face, and then asked with a bright-eyed smile, "Brother Xue, didn't you go to Fuji Auction's autumn auction today?"
"I've gone, and Brother Qi has gone too?" Xue Chen asked with a natural expression.
"Of course I went, and I also took a picture of one thing, which is the one on the table." Qi Hu stepped aside and pointed to an exquisite blue and white porcelain vase placed on his desk, with a faint look on his face.
A look of pride and ostentation.
When Xue Chen saw the blue and white porcelain vase, his expression suddenly changed. He kept his head down and said nothing.
Qi Hu also noticed the change in Xue Chen's expression and twitched his eyebrows: "Brother Xue?"
Xue Chen pursed his lips, with a slightly troubled expression on his face. He sighed for a long time before speaking: "Brother Qi, I didn't expect that this final piece of blue and white porcelain was taken by you. If I saw it, I would definitely stop you.
"
"Brother Xue, please explain clearly, what do you mean?" The smile on Qi Hu's face gradually faded.
"This is a fake." Xue Chen shook his head.
"Brother Xue, don't talk nonsense. If it is a fake, how dare Fuji Auction put it up for auction? Also, how do you know it is a fake without even touching it?" Qi Hu frowned and asked.
