Ai Lizhen thought that accepting the joint interview with Jiang Dongbin and Editor-in-Chief Lin was her most "highlight" moment, but she didn't expect that a bigger surprise was yet to come.

After Huang Jianxiang and several artists visited the entire exhibition hall, they highly affirmed Ai Lizhen's works, praising her for her deep understanding of Shi Tao's painting skills of "searching all the peaks and making drafts". The composition is novel, or the panoramic scene is grand, or the local close-up, the scenery is prominent, and the changes are endless, almost every painting is a masterpiece.

After some praise, Huang Jianxiang took the lead, and every artist present bought a painting, and the price was also Huang Jianxiang's final word: 50,000 yuan each.

At the scene, including Huang Jianxiang, a total of six members of the Artists Association came, which means that Alizhen sold six paintings at once, earning 300,000 yuan.

Jiang Dongbin and Editor-in-Chief Lin saw that Huang Jianxiang and others had bought paintings, so they each found two favorite paintings and bought them at a price of 50,000 yuan, which increased Ai Lizhen's income to 500,000 yuan......

After thanking Huang Jianxiang, Jiang Dongbin and others for saying goodbye, Ai Lizhen was so excited that her face was flushed, she grabbed Tang Xin's hand, and said in a choked voice while shaking it incessantly: "Xiao Tang, I really don't know how to thank you." You see, ten paintings were sold at once, and they were sold for 500,000 yuan. After removing the rent and management fees payable, I can net more than $300,000 and no longer have to worry about losing money. ”

Speaking of this, she calmed down her agitated mood and continued: "I know that Chairman Huang, Minister Jiang and others are all here to save your face. They bought my paintings at a high price, and they also wanted to repay your favor. I won't say more if I'm grateful, but in a word: we will be a family in the future, you have to come to our house often to play, and I hope you will settle a relationship with Hanhan as soon as possible, so that I, a mother, can rest assured. ”

Tang Xin didn't have the idea of marrying Chen Yunhan at all, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he had to say vaguely: "Auntie, I will often visit you and Professor Chen in the future——"

As soon as he said this, his mobile phone suddenly chirped, and when he looked at the number, it was Song Yao calling.

Tang Xin took his mobile phone and walked to the side and asked, "Yaoyao, is there something wrong?"

"Brother, I've changed my name to Charlene now, don't call me Yaoyao in the future, just call me Charlene or Linlin, okay?"

"Okay, I'll call you Linlin in the future. ”

"Brother, are you in the store? My parents want to invite you to my house for lunch, are you free?"

"I'm not in the store right now. By the way, do your aunts and uncles want to tell me something? If there is really something, you can talk about it on the phone, and I won't come to dinner. ”

Xia Lin hesitated for a moment and whispered: "There is nothing else, it is that my father has been transferred from the Public Security Bureau, and the new position announced yesterday is a member of the Standing Committee of the Hengjiang Municipal Party Committee, Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection and Acting Director of the Supervision Commission, which can be regarded as a promotion of half a level." My mom was more happy, so I bought a few good dishes at noon and wanted to invite you over for a meal to celebrate. ”

Tang Xin asked in surprise: "Are you sure that your father's new position is that of secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection and acting director of the Supervision Commission? Last time I heard Captain Xie say that your father might be promoted to secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and temporarily acting director of the Public Security Bureau, is Captain Xie's news inaccurate?"

Charlene said, "I don't know about that. But I heard my mother say that the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection is now an important position, ranking higher than the secretary of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee than the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, so his transfer this time can be regarded as being reused, so my mother is very happy, and said that my return has brought good luck to my father, so I want to invite you over and celebrate with us on a small scale. ”

Tang Xin couldn't shirk it, so he responded with a "yes", hung up the phone and said to Ai Lizhen and Chen Yunhan, and then hurried to the compound of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Xia Guowei will not go to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection until next Monday to take office, but the handover work on the side of the Public Security Bureau has been completed, so he did not go to work that day. When Tang Xin arrived at Xia's house, he was helping Liao Meiru stir-fry in the kitchen.

During the meal, Liao Meiru took the initiative to pick up a glass of red wine and said to Tang Xin with a smile: "Xiao Tang, you are the noble man of our family!

Tang Xin also raised his wine glass, embarrassed to say: "Auntie, what kind of noble person am I, don't say this in the future, I can't afford it!"

Liao Meiru said very seriously: "Xiao Tang, I am not a false politeness, you are indeed a noble person in my family." Do you think, if it weren't for you, how could we have found my family Linlin so quickly? Linlin has suffered so much and suffered so many grievances outside, and she will definitely be blessed in the future. You see, not long after she came back, Lao Xia was promoted, and she was promoted to a very important position. In front of Lao Xia, I dare to say: His promotion is the good luck and good fortune brought by Linlin's return home - Lao Xia, don't you say?"

Xia Guowei shook his head disapprenousfully and said, "Meiru, don't instill this kind of feudal superstition in your children about the reincarnation of cause and effect, and the retribution of good and evil. My transfer this time is because of the trust of the party organization and the higher-level leaders in me, and it is also a great trust in me, and it has nothing to do with good fortune and good retribution. Don't you think it's too far-fetched to link this matter to Linlin's homecoming?"

Liao Meiru pouted dissatisfiedly and said, "You are now an official, and your official tone has come to the house." What kind of feudal superstitious thoughts? I just think that your promotion this time is the good luck brought by Linlin. Think about it for yourself: Why have you not been promoted after so many years as deputy mayor and director of the public security bureau? Why was it that you were promoted and reused only a few days after Linlin returned home? Is this purely a coincidence? I don't think so!"

Charlene said in a strange tone: "Mom, don't talk about this, okay? Brother Tang is still here!"

Liao Meiru looked at her lovingly, and suddenly said to Tang Xin: "Xiao Tang, I heard that you bought a shop in the antique street, when is this new store going to open?"

Tang Xin replied: "Now we are applying for the industrial and commercial business license and the "Cultural Relics Business License", and it can be opened after the documents are completed, it is estimated that it will be next month!"

Liao Meiru hesitated for a moment and said: "Linlin hasn't found a good job yet, she is bored at home every day, she herself proposed to help in your store, then her life will be more fulfilling, as for the salary or anything, it doesn't matter, you just look at it." ”

Tang Xin subconsciously turned his head to look at Xia Lin, and saw that her face was flushed, and her eyes showed a look of anticipation - obviously, this was the idea she proposed to Liao Meiru.

After hesitating for a moment, Tang Xin replied: "Auntie, since Linlin wants to go to my store to do things, I don't think it's better to do this: just let her buy a share in my store, and I will give her ten percent of the shares, and let her enter the antique business, how about it?"
