Chapter 136: The Mysterious Auction (Part II)

Outside the Capital International Airport of Country S, when Zhuo Feng and his party walked out of the exit passage of the airport, there were already two people standing there holding a sign with Chen Xiaoyan's name at the pick-up gate.

When the two saw Chen Xiaoyan walking over, they asked, "You are Miss Chen Xiaoyan, the daughter of President Chen of the Chen Group, right? Welcome to the capital of country S." We are employees of Chen's Group's subsidiaries in overseas country S, and we have already arranged your trip, please go this way. ”

"Thank you, thank you for your hard work. ”

Chen Xiaoyan said politely.

Zhuo Feng and Hanwa followed behind with their suitcases. Out of the airport waiting hall, he followed the two to a commercial vehicle.

Zhuo Feng and Hanwa hurriedly put their luggage in the trunk and moved it, and the two of them also stepped forward to help.

"Thank you, don't bother you. We can. ”

Zhuo Feng politely thanked the two.

The vehicle carried Zhuo Feng and his party to the hotel where they had been arranged.

Country S is China's neighbor, and half of S's tourism revenue is supported by Chinese tourists. Therefore, most hotels in the capital city will arrange a front desk staff who can speak Chinese and a staff member who speaks a local language.

For Zhuo Feng and Hanwa, who are going abroad for the first time, they will not be greatly affected in terms of communication.

After registering in front, Zhuo Feng and the others got two sets of keys.

Chen Xiaoyan lived in a single room by herself as she did last time, and Zhuo Feng and Hanwa lived in a standard room.

After the waiters pushed suitcases and carried them into their respective rooms, Zhuo Feng gave a tip and sent them out.

Zhuo Feng and his family live on the 20th floor, and from the window of the room, they can take in nearly half of the cityscape of the capital city.

After packing up the luggage, the temperature here is already close to 28 degrees, which is a little uncomfortable, after a simple wash, Zhuo Feng and Hanwa went to Chen Xiaoyan's room to discuss the next step.

The employees of the group's subsidiaries have not yet left, and they happen to be in Chen Xiaoyan's room at this time.

"Miss Chen, it's not very convenient to talk in this room, let's go down to the café downstairs, add something to eat to reverse the jet lag, and talk." ”

The man at the head suggested.

"Well, okay, thanks. I don't know what to call you?"

Chen Xiaoyan asked politely.

"Miss Chen, I am the reception manager of the company under the S country, my surname is Ding, this is my colleague, Manager Lei. ”

"It turned out to be Manager Ding and Manager Lei, thank you for your careful arrangement. Thank you. ”

The group went to the café downstairs of the hotel, and soon Chen Xiaoyan and Zhuo Feng learned that the people of this S country basically speak the local language, and only the staff who focus on serving Chinese tourists speak the local language and Chinese.

Some service industries and catering industries can speak both languages, which brings a lot of convenience to Chinese tourists.

In fact, this is also a major feature of country S's focus on the development of tourism, so that Chinese tourists can feel like they are playing in China, so that they can earn more money.

I also found out that the company that was going to hold the mysterious auction was going to be held by a Japanese person.

This company is a very famous auction company in country S, and it used to hold auctions often, all of which were antiques through legal channels, but I don't know why there was a mysterious auction this time, and the antiques that were auctioned did not even have the most basic necessary appraisals.

Under the arrangement of Manager Ding and Manager Lei, the next day, Zhuo Feng and the others got the bidding number plate to participate in the auction, but the time of the auction was not determined, saying that the auction company would inform them by phone, which made the originally mysterious auction even more mysterious.

Zhuo Feng and Chen Xiaoyan also analyzed that the reason why it became so mysterious was that the auction company wanted to catch a big boss to participate in this gambling-style auction. Because only in this form will they absorb those rich financiers and invest a lot of money into them in exchange for vanity to set off and highlight their identity.

This is also the genius of this auction company, I really can't imagine that the Japanese boss behind the scenes would want to play this game of control, seize the vanity of the rich, and earn a lot of money.

After the matter was arranged, Manager Ding returned to the company, leaving Manager Lei to act as a translator for Chen Xiaoyan and his party.

Mr. Lei has been in this country for seven or eight years, and he is very familiar with the local language, in case he needs to communicate with the locals during the tour and the auction.

In order to facilitate Manager Lei to accompany her as a translator, Chen Xiaoyan paid for her own money to book another room for Manager Lei.

"Miss Chen, this is not in line with the company's regulations, I just come early in the morning and go back later in the evening, and I don't need to help me book another room." ”

Manager Lei tried his best to refuse.

"I am the assistant president of the group, and I still have this power to seek a little welfare for my subordinates, Manager Lei, you don't have to shirk it. Rest assured, I will report these expenses to the group headquarters after returning to China, and I will not burden your overseas subsidiaries a little. ”

When Manager Lei saw Chen Xiaoyan say this, he no longer shirked and stayed in the hotel, which was indeed a lot more convenient, and it could also speed up Chen Xiaoyan's understanding of local customs, culture, and some precautions.

The next day, they still didn't receive a call from the auction company, so they went to the attractions, temples, and palaces near the hotel, took a lot of photos, ate food at the stalls, and selected small souvenirs.

Outsiders don't go through investigation, they really look like friends who come to this S country to play abroad.

On this day, everyone had a lot of fun, Manager Lei has been in this country for many years, and he has not been so relaxed to play this time, which may be the reason why Chen Xiaoyan, a big beauty, is present.

Chen Xiaoyan is the focus of attention no matter where she is, and the girl's words, deeds and smile can drive the people around her to abandon their troubles.

It was half past four p.m. local time.

Everyone was about to go to a special local snack bar to eat something and then go back to the hotel, when Manager Lei's phone rang.

It was the auction company who called and told them to rush to the Regal Universal East Asia Hotel within two hours for a mysterious auction at 8 p.m.

Manager Lei hurriedly told Chen Xiaoyan this information, and everyone hurriedly ate a little food and rushed to the hotel where they were staying. Back at the hotel, everyone washed up briefly, changed their clothes, brought relevant documents, and gathered in the lobby, and took a taxi to the Regal Universal East Asia Hotel.

Originally, Manager Lei arranged for everyone to take the company's business car, but Chen Xiaoyan said that this is a bit conspicuous, and people with a heart can find out their background at a glance, and it is more convenient to directly charter a hotel car.

When I came to the Regal Hotel, there were already four or five men in black suits standing on the side of the hotel at the door.

Chen Xiaoyan stepped forward to take out her documents to participate in the auction, and one of the men in black led them to the elevator.

The elevator went up to the 18th floor, and after signing the information at the registration office, another man in black on the side gave a mask, a bidding number plate, and three accompanying people to hang up, and only these things could enter and exit the venue.

Chen Xiaoyan got a black princess Huaxiu half-face mask, and after wearing it, she showed another beautiful face even more. Now Chen Xiaoyan is no longer a delicate and innocent lady, but a bewitching black princess. With the long skirt just changed, it shows maturity and generosity without being a little more enchanting, which is a perfect match for this mask.

"It's beautiful. Zhuo Feng sighed.

"Really? I'll be wearing this mask every day from now on. You're going to have to buy me some nice masks. Hehe. ”

"If you like it, I'll buy it for you when the auction is over. ”

Zhuo Feng also put on his mask, a duke's mask, and instantly became a gentleman.

"You look good when you wear it, you're very handsome. ”

Chen Xiaoyan also praised.

It seems that the masks prepared by the auctioneer have been carefully prepared, so the man in black who issued the mask may be the expert who specializes in looking at the shape of the face to match the mask.

The man in black at the entrance of the auction hall handed out a document to each person, which contained information on the antiques to be auctioned today. The content of the information is edited in English and Chinese, which is convenient for different groups of people to view and read. It seems that there are quite a few people who know Chinese to participate in this mysterious auction tonight.

If you can't see the real thing, it's important to look at the data.

The lights in the hall were only a small part on, and it was dim.

In the large conference hall that can accommodate more than 200 people, only three or four percent of the people are seated, and they are sparsely scattered. It seems that the time has not yet come, and those big financiers will not show up yet.

There are people in black all around, and there is a person at a distance of five or six meters, and it seems that this well-known auction company has done a good job in terms of security.

Like the previous auction, there is a small bar in the right corner of this auction room.

Zhuo Feng saw that there were not many people now, and it was not very noisy, so he hurriedly looked at the antiques on the information.

Zhuo Feng focused on the antiquities that Chen Lao mentioned that were suspected to have been lost from China.

The first picture of the antiquities is a plate, and the information reads: blue and white dragon and phoenix wear a light porcelain bowl with a pattern, but it is not marked which dynasty.

The second antiquity picture is a piece of jade, and the information reads: White Jade Guanyin Sheep Fat Jade, which is also not marked with the origin and age.

The third picture is a sword blade without a sword head and a broken ancient sword, and the information reads: Chinese Shang Dynasty willow leaf bronze sword.

The fourth antiquity picture is a copper chime, and the information actually reads: One of the accessories of the Chu State of China.

After reading the information of these four antiquities, Zhuo Feng felt that he only saw some furs, and he couldn't really determine whether these four antiquities were lost national treasures, nor whether they were real or fake.

If only you could use that special ability to just look at the picture, you can know the real information about the object.

Zhuo Feng thought so in his heart, seeing that there were not many people near his seat, and Chen Xiaoyan, Hanwa and Manager Na Lei happened to surround themselves in the middle, and no one noticed this, his consciousness sank and he opened, and examined the four pictures in turn again.

As soon as my eyes fell on the first image, a row of information came into view.

"Ming blue and white dragon and phoenix wear pattern light porcelain bowl, the ornamental characteristics are distinct, and the bottom of the bowl has the words Dehua on the back. Zhuo Feng was pleasantly surprised, sure enough, after the ability was sublimated, he glanced at the picture, and he didn't see the real thing, he could know the information of this antiquity, this ability was simply amazing.

Keep looking.

"Imitations. After the No. 1 merchant ship in the South China Sea discovered and released a large number of fine ceramics from the famous kiln of Song Dehua, imitations appeared in East Asia, and the concept was transformed into imitation. ”

Imitations?

Unexpectedly, a well-known auction company uses imitations to fool bidders under the banner of a mysterious auction.
