Chapter 339 The entrance ceremony is about to begin
Rongzhou Market.
It is here that the trade fair takes place.
The big market is a distribution center for goods, so it is just right to hold the exhibition here.
However, the last trade fair was held at Wanhua Club, which has a large area and can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Of course, Furui Jewelry chose the location of the exhibition there at that time, seemingly to make good friends with the Wen family, but in fact it was to explore the ancient tombs in the Broken Dragon Backbone and the unfinished building.
In fact, Xinglong Jewelry Company originally had this plan, but unfortunately Wanhua Club has closed down. Of course, they are not robbing tombs, they just want to make good friends with the Wen family.
Wen Runyu's new club has not yet opened. In fact, outsiders don't know about it yet, otherwise the trade fair would definitely be held there.
At this moment, the entire market is divided into five major areas: east, west, south, north, and middle. The outer areas are operated normally by vendors from the previous market, while the central area holds trade fairs.
Of course, ordinary vendors can also enter the central area to sell things, provided they pay an entrance fee. The fee is 10% based on the estimated value of the goods you sell.
The fee may not seem high, but it keeps nine out of ten vendors out. However, those who resell antiques see business opportunities and pay the admission fee one after another, hoping to kill off a few rip-offs.
In fact, the Central District is also divided into the outer area and the inner area. The outer area is mostly run by retail households. The inner area is an independent five-story building. This building was originally a place for auction activities. When there is no auction, the big market
On the other hand, he opened an antique shop here.
The grand finale auction will be held in the top floor hall, and the remaining four floors will be booked by major luxury goods and antique dealers.
You should know that the lots for an auction have been booked in advance, and those lots for which no commission has been paid will not appear at the auction. Of course, if you want to join temporarily, you will need to pay more than twice the commission.
As for how much, it is up to the organizer to decide.
At this moment, the entire market was buzzing with people, and the number of customers was more than twice as high as usual.
Around the big market, including outside the urban village, there are all kinds of luxury cars parked. It can be said that the most luxurious car show in the world is nothing more than this.
In order to highlight the status of the VIPs, the market specially opened four three-meter-wide VIP passages in the southeast, northwest, and covered with red carpets and flower baskets on both sides. Between each flower basket, there is a person wearing black clothes and wearing a hat.
The security personnel with ink stains are of course Zhao Hu's people. Behind the flower baskets, there are long guns and cannons. Reporters from all over the country, including some foreign media, are paying attention to this unprecedented auction.
Behind the reporters were crowds of people, including many well-known figures. Unfortunately, their status was not enough to qualify as VIPs, so they could only stare at the bright red carpet and look up to the sky with sighs.
.
Being able to walk on the red carpet is a status symbol.
You know, this red carpet walk was live broadcast. Who doesn’t want to show their face in front of a national audience?
At this moment, a group of distinguished guests were already waiting at the four VIP aisles. They only waited for the salute to sound and the music to sound before they could enter the venue gracefully.
Of course, who enters the venue first and who comes out last is very particular. The first person must be the most distinguished guest, and the last person will of course be the host.
Taking the east as the main direction, the last person to appear in the east passage was naturally the person in charge of the auction, Lu Tao. As for the person who took the lead, it was Xu Wenhe, the general manager of the Lu family. Lu Qi and Hong Tian were standing in front of Xu Wenhe.
Wen He's death.
Those in the south are headed by Wen Dali, the head of the Wen family.
To the west is headed by Liu Yuejiao, the future heir of the Liu family.
To the north is Bai Hai, who is known as the antique tycoon.
Bai Hai is now in his seventies and is a senior antique appraiser. His status in the antique world is equivalent to Zhou Haisheng's status in the entertainment industry. It can be said that if an antique is true, even if he says it is true,
It is made of mud, but if it becomes real, the value will continue to rise.
But this time Bai Hai came to the exhibition not to be invited to be a treasure appraiser for Xinglong Jewelry Company. He came to sell things.
Dozens of his lots were already on the auction list. Lu Tao had already seen them, and most of them were worthless items, but Bai Hai offered sky-high prices. This was clearly an attempt to take advantage of someone they had taken advantage of.
But again, the water in the antique world is very deep, and Lu Tao will not expose this matter. After all, this is a consensual matter between Zhou Yu and Zhou Yu.
If you know it's fake, then just don't buy it. If you still buy it knowing it's fake, then you deserve to be ripped off.
In fact, Bai Hai was helpless. Those lots were not his at all, but someone sneaked into his house last night and forced him to sell them. And he could only contact Lu Tao overnight to add these lots to the auction list.
What made him want to cry even more was that until now, he didn't know who that person was. Of course, he knew that the person looked like a ghost and had kidnapped his ten-year-old son, whom he regarded as life-threatening.
At this moment, the west passage for VIP guests.
Liu Yuejiao is standing at the front.
She wore a white floor-length dress today, and with her graceful and beautiful face, she immediately became the object of everyone's attention.
She glanced at the expensive watch in her hand from time to time, and frowned every time.
In fact, she was cursing in her heart.
I want to ask who is scolding?
Who else could it be besides Lu Feng?
Seeing that it would be nine o'clock in five minutes, Lu Feng hadn't come yet. She was even planning to hold Lu Feng's arm and enter the venue together.
This honor is something that everyone desperately wants, but Lu Feng prefers her.
In fact, it was Liu Wenyuan who originally accompanied Liu Yuejiao to the venue, and he begged for this. For this reason, he had a beauty treatment all night last night, and I heard that his face was almost bald.
As a result, this morning, Liu Yuejiao told him that I was going to enter the market with Lu Feng. Liu Wenyuan was itching with hatred, but he did not dare to go to Lu Feng to settle the score.
Firstly, because he couldn't beat him, and secondly, the man surnamed Lu was likely to become his brother-in-law in the future. At that time, Lu Feng would have a higher status than him because of his wife's worth. In order to realize his dream of living a life of soft rice, Liu Wenyuan could only
I can choose to swallow my anger.
Xiao Li and Liu Wenyuan stood behind Liu Yuejiao, both looking anxious.
You know, at the beginning of the entrance ceremony, the emcee will introduce the VIPs who step onto the red carpet according to the pre-determined guest list. When Liu Yuejiao steps onto the red carpet alone, the emcee reads out her and Lu Feng's names. This is not
Embarrassing yourself in public?
Of course, Liu Yuejiao was not afraid of being embarrassed. She was so angry that Lu Feng let her go.
"This Lu Feng really succeeds more than he fails. He really needs to be dealt with when he slips up at such a critical time." Liu Wenyuan muttered with a sullen face.
"Snapped!"
Sudden!
Liu Wenyuan was tapped on the shoulder.
"Liu Wenyuan, if you talk about people behind their backs, you may get sores on your tongue."
Why are these words so familiar?
Liu Wenyuan suddenly looked back, his eyes flashing, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
The visitor was none other than Lu Feng.
"Lu...Lu Feng, you...you cast a spell on me again?" Liu Wenyuan rolled his tongue and his face changed color in fear.
The sores on his mouth and tongue caused by Lu Feng last time were still painful, and he never dared to eat.
Lu Feng smiled lightly. "Does your mouth feel a lot cooler?"
Liu Wenyuan felt it and his eyes suddenly widened.
Still patting gently, the first time caused sores on his mouth and tongue, but the second time he immediately relieved the pain.
