"Ahh~~ My clothes, are you blind to your dog's eyes?!" That high-octave scream coldly cut through the entire hall of the venue.

"That's right. Luo Yi's girl should really delete the qualifications of the members of the charity association, those nouveau riche who have no background, it is better to be less included. The scream was accompanied by Susanna's Cantonese with a soft Suzhou accent.

Suzanne is also an old friend of Zhao Qingru, and she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the current head of the Lin family. The Lin family is no better than the Xu family, which has gone into decline, as early as the beginning of the 20th century of the last century, when the British ruled Xiangjiang, they owned a large piece of land. Before, Zhao Qingru had a small cooperation with the Lin family, and now most of the storefronts along the street in Xiangjiang are half sold and half given to Zhao Qingru by the Lin family to express their gratitude.

Susanna, who was already from a wealthy family and was the former honorary president, naturally didn't look down on a certain rich wife who screamed because of the seafood falling from the sky.

First, it is such a rude in public, and if it were not for the construction of public rental housing by the Xiangjiang government, a wealthy wife would have the money to go to Alaska to play, and then she was very lucky to win the jackpot, and she would not be eligible to appear at all.

"Which slut is it......" When a rich lady saw clearly that the person who spoke was Susanna, she immediately changed her face, "It turned out to be Mrs. Lin." You shouldn't be Su embroidery. ”

"Mrs. Lu, I think you need to freshen up more now than rush over to talk to Susanna. "The eldest lady of the Zhou family, who is with Susanna, is also Zhao Qingru's sister-in-law, and she does not hide the ridicule in her eyes at all.

When the wife of the Lu family left in an embarrassed hurry, the eldest lady of the Zhou family unceremoniously looked at Zhao Qingru with a cold face, and said, "Pandora! ”

"Even if I go back to the ancestral house of the Zhou family, you are not here. ”

"That's right. The eldest lady of the Zhou family was taken into the ditch by Zhao Qingru in an instant, but she came back to her senses in a blink of an eye, "No! It's not the same thing that I'm not there, you didn't go back......"

"Okay, I don't see anyone here. "Xu is getting older, but Susanna's temper has changed a lot over the years. I remember when I first met, every time I spoke, it was like a machine gun, and I didn't give others a chance to talk at all.

"Pandora, when did you arrive in Xiangjiang? ”

"This morning's plane, for the evening auction to come to the auction to hold Luo Yi, the afternoon was busy doing hair care and picking out dresses. Zhao Qingru briefly mentioned his itinerary for the day, and explained a little why he didn't go back to the Zhou family's ancestral house for the first time.

"By the way, Pandora, it's better if you're here. The eldest lady of the Zhou family thought of something, so she leaned closer, lowered her voice, and said, "In this auction, I heard Luo Yi say that there is a bronze head, which came out of the Old Summer Palace back then, and it is said to be true. I'm still talking to Suzanne about this, is it a few families working together to take pictures of things? ”

"Luo Yi also mentioned this to me just now, but now I don't know if this object is real or fake. Besides, I don't know who took it out, and it's not a small boldness. ”

In recent years, with the increasing prestige of China in the world, especially after the successful hosting of the 2000 Yanjing Olympic Games, it can be said that the people of the world have seen that an ancient country with an ancient and brilliant civilization exudes new vitality. With the continuous rise of national strength, those old objects that belonged to China that were scattered abroad also returned to China little by little.

Of course, no one is stupid and will not be sent back in vain. So much so that in recent years, the prices of those old objects have also risen. Not to mention, it is also the bronze head of the zodiac, in the mid-eighties of the last century, the horse head and the cow head and the tiger head were auctioned for the first time in the United States, and the final transaction price was only 1500 meters of gold each. In the early 90s, the fourth monkey head was discovered, and the final auction turnover suddenly rose to 850,000 meters of gold.

Over the years, among the bronze heads of the 12 zodiac signs, the seven statues of rats, oxes, rabbits, tigers, horses, monkeys, and pigs have been found one after another, and they are treasured in the Yanjing Palace Museum, and the dragon head is currently in the Wanwan Palace Museum at the other end of the strait.

In this matter, the wealthy people in Xiangjiang led by the sixth uncle, Sir Zhou, have contributed a lot of manpower and financial resources. Although some details are not the same as the previous life in Zhao Qingru's memory, there is still no news about the snake, sheep, chicken and dog.

Therefore, when Zhao Qingru heard that the bronze head would be auctioned at this auction, he couldn't help but wonder if it would be one of the remaining four, or even four, of the remaining ones whose whereabouts have been unknown so far.

In all fairness, the bronze head of the zodiac designed by Lang Shining is the pinnacle of bronze ware in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, even in terms of production technology, and it is of great research value. But it is not a strong proof that "if you are backward, you will be beaten", otherwise the British and French forces would not have looted the Old Summer Palace and burned it to the ground.

Zhao Qingru avoided the crowd, and most importantly, found a corner where there was no hidden surveillance around the area, and got in touch with Xiaoyu. Don't look at Zhao Qingru, who has already taken the lead in getting the copper first auction from Chen Luoyi, there will be a temporary addition of a finale at this auction, but it is not known which one will be auctioned, whether it is genuine or fake.

On the contrary, I got in touch with Xiaoyu, and in just a few minutes, I got a lot of new information. Sure enough, it is a bronze head, and it is said that it is still the dog head of the four copper heads whose whereabouts have been unknown, and there is a ninety percent chance that it is genuine. Huaxia Yanjing has already sent people to participate in the fight and take back the ninth bronze head as much as possible.

The mysterious person who has the head of the dog is said to be a little devil with an underworld background, and his ancestors participated in the invasion of Yanjing by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and he got this dog head from a Frenchman who had a good personal relationship.

Whether it's true or not, as that bronze head is recovered, it will only become more and more difficult to continue to recover the remaining four. The fact that each auction is more expensive each time is the best proof of this.

Again, no one is stupid.

Zhao Qingru doesn't know if tonight's dog head auction will be sold at a high price of 14 million euros like the rabbit head in his previous life. Come to think of it, according to the current top eight bronze heads, the highest auction price is only 6.9 million Hong Kong dollars, which should not be. What's more, tonight's auction is a charity auction, and the proceeds from the auction will be used for charity.

So...... Why the owner, the so-called little devil, did this, his purpose is very intriguing.

Could it be ...... The target is her?!

Zhao Qingru frowned, not thinking that after so many years, some of her secrets had not been discovered by those who had a heart. Even if there are not many people who know (leak) the secret (secret) about that secret warehouse, there is something that cannot be hidden.

A few months before the old gentleman drove the crane west, Tang Yue and Song secretly took her over and hurriedly met her, and handed her a thing. This thing, Zhao Qingru has been hiding in his secret warehouse, it is a life talisman, how can it not be a life talisman.

This wealth, always charming to the eye, can make most people crazy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening......" On the rostrum, the voice of the master of ceremonies brought Zhao Qingru, who was in deep thought, back to his senses.

The originally stumbling voices in the audience were also quiet because the auction was about to start. At this time, Zhou Xinren accompanied a man and a woman to the adjacent seat not far from the seat where Zhao Qingru was sitting. The first moment Zhou Xinren saw Zhao Qingru, his face was a little unnatural, and even the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Zhao Qingru returned a bright smile, and after seeing the faces of the two on Zhou Xinren's side, she bowed her head slightly politely. Husbands and wives for many years, even if they are more divided and get together less, there is still a tacit understanding that should be there.

Zhao Qingru didn't know why his own man Zhou Wentao, who was supposed to be in the research institute to do research, appeared in Xiangjiang tonight, and deliberately disguised himself to participate in this charity auction. However, her nerd eyes changed to ice blue, and she was wearing a specially tailored suit, which was really well-dressed and gentle.

On the other side, Zhou Wentao, who was temporarily entrusted with a heavy responsibility, only felt that his back was cold, and his scalp was even more numb. But the matter has come to this point, and I can only bear it to the end. As for hindsight...... Whether it's a kneeling gold pillow or a computer keyboard, he also admits it.

Whoever made all this is for that bronze head.

Zhou Wentao sighed silently in his heart.

“…… The auction of tonight's first collection will begin, which was specially donated by the old man of the Lin family, and was a cloisonné enamel incense burner during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. This incense burner is simple in shape, flashy in ornamentation, fine in production, and has a high collection value. The starting price is HK$20,000, and the price is increased by HK$1,000 each time......"

"Twenty thousand. ”

"Twenty-five thousand!"

……

As the auctioneer on the rostrum briefly introduced the first auction item, the rich people in the audience asked for bids. Zhao Qingru didn't have much interest in the incense burner or anything, so she and Ah Mei were next to each other, studying the booklet in their hands. Charity auctions like this are mostly just a process of auctioning.

Those caring trenches took out some of their collection of antiques, calligraphy and paintings or luxury goods for auction, and most of them bought them back again, and the money was donated lovingly.

The booklet in Zhao Qingru's hand transcribed all the goods that will be auctioned at tonight's charity auction. It is marked that those are the goods that the owner is having fun with, and which ones are not going to be bought back. As for Chen Luoyi's previous telling Zhao Qingru that the bronze head that might be taken out at night was not in the promotional brochure because it was a temporary added commodity.
