was looking at the porcelain display area when he heard Zhuang Xian's shout. Zhuang Xian motioned for Fang Yong to come over, and it seemed that several of his friends had also come over.

followed Zhuang Xian up to the second floor, and when he entered the hall upstairs, he looked at it and saw that it was even more luxurious and magnificent, with two rows of girls in red cheongsams greeting him.

Further inside, there is a makeshift stage with rows of plush seats underneath it, and it looks like this is where the auction will take place this afternoon.

In fact, there are not only auction contents, but also some leisure facilities. For example, the facilities for drinking and dancing are completely a leisure place for everyone to have fun.

Looking at the various luxurious decorations and entertainment facilities in the hall, stepping on the thick carpet, Fang Yong couldn't help but think that these boys would really enjoy it.

Looking at the crowd again, the people who had come in earlier were all sitting together in twos and threes, chatting about something.

followed Zhuang Xian to a table and chair, and saw four people sitting on these seats, one of whom was Hu Yaoguang. The other three Fang Yong didn't know each other, and it was probably the person Zhuang Xian said he wanted to get to know Fang Yong.

"Xiao Yong is here?" Hu Yaoguang said with a smile.

"Hello Brother Guang!" Fang Yong greeted Hu Yaoguang and said, "Follow Brother Xian to take a look, charity is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and the important thing is to participate!" ”

Zhuang Xian patted Fang Yong and smiled: "Come, I'll introduce you to these young people again." ”

Zhuang Xianxian pointed to a young man with gold-rimmed glasses and a little polite and said: "Xiao Yong, this is Zhang Cunzhou, everyone calls Brother Cunzhou, the son of Vice Premier Zhang!" Worked in the National Policy Research Office. ”

When Fang Yong heard it, he was still a heavyweight. So he hurriedly greeted Zhang Cunzhou and said, "Hello, Brother Cunzhou!" ”

After Zhuang Xian introduced Zhang Cunzhou to Fang Yong, he introduced Guo Chengsong and Liu Jiantao to Fang Yong respectively.

It turns out that the origins of these two people are not small. Guo Chengsong is the eldest grandson of Guo Jingxiang, vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and is now the deputy county magistrate of Gantian County in western China. Liu Jiantao is the son of Liu Chuanyin, chairman of Huaxia Iron and Steel Group, and now he also works in Huaxia Iron and Steel Group.

Fang Yong also greeted these two people before sitting with them.

didn't say anything, Fang Yong listened quietly to the conversation of Zhuang Xian and the others, and only chatted a few words at the right time, so as to analyze the personalities and hobbies of these people.

These people are not the kind of people who like to show off when they have a backer, but they are a little low-key, and they seem to be very calm and mature when they interact with Fang Yong. In particular, Guo Chengsong, the current deputy county magistrate, also showed the atmosphere of some superiors in his conversation. It seems that this Guo Chengsong is also a deputy county magistrate with real power in Gantian County.

At this time, a handsome man in his thirties came to the middle stage to thank everyone for coming to participate, and then said that some of the proceeds from this charity auction will be used for all the funds from the charity auction, and that all the funds will be donated to nursing homes.

Zhuang Xian, who was beside him, introduced to Fang Yong: "It is Song Zhi, the son of State Councilor Song Baoming, who is speaking now, and this charity auction was organized by several of them. ”

Fang Yong nodded after hearing this, it seems that it is not bad for these sons to do some charity.

After Song Zhi finished speaking, the charity auction soon began.

Everyone is here to cheer, and every now and then they will make a bid.

Fang Yong sometimes quoted the price several times. However, it was not long before the price of the auction exceeded the price of the item being auctioned.

Now there is a bidding for a porcelain vase from the Ming Dynasty, and Fang Yong found that when auctioning this porcelain vase, there were two waves of people competing to increase the price of this porcelain vase.

Seeing this, Fang Yong smiled and said, "It seems that everyone is very supportive of charity activities!"

Heard Fang Yong say this. Zhang Cunzhou said: "Xiao Yong, what kind of support is this." The two of them don't like each other, they want to overwhelm each other in momentum, and they also want to take this opportunity to probe each other's strength. ”

"Xiao Yong. You are not in the capital, you do not understand the situation. Some things have good intentions, but sometimes it will also become a stage for some sons and buddies to show off the strength of their families. Guo Chengsong also smiled and said to Fang Yong.

I didn't expect there to be so many ways in this. If you don't experience it yourself, how can ordinary people know that there are so many insiders inside.

Seeing that the price of the porcelain vase was getting higher and higher, Fang Yong said with a smile: "This price has long exceeded the porcelain vase itself. ”

Zhuang Xian said: "You are good at this, we don't understand." In fact, some things that don't seem to have much value at all are often sold at a very high price, and there is an element of vindictiveness in this. ”

"Xiao Yong, do you see, it is Ding Zhixin who is bidding now, and his uncle is a member of the Political Bureau. And it was Wang Zhan who made the bid just now, and his father was also a member of the Political Bureau. Because of their different governing philosophies, the two often quarreled, which also caused the camp division of the younger generation. Liu Jiantao also explained to Fang Yong.

Seeing this, Fang Yong had a feeling that the people at the top were fighting in the officialdom, and their families were also using such a place to show their strength. sighed secretly, these boys are really full.

In the end, the porcelain vase was auctioned by Wang Zhan at a price of 8.5 million yuan, and the transaction price was about five times higher than the market price of the bottle. It's really a rich man, but it's also a good thing for the people that the money can sponsor a nursing home.

After Wang Zhan took a picture of this porcelain vase, he looked at Ding Zhixin with some provocation and ostentatiousness. And Ding Zhixin's eyes when he looked at Wang Zhan revealed a trace of anger.

Originally, Fang Yong also wanted to auction a few pieces of the collection at this charity auction to make some contributions to public welfare. Seeing these boys' play, Fang Yong gave up his previous idea. We have the money to do public welfare by ourselves, but we must not get involved in the fighting things of these boys.

In order to save face, several of the more than a dozen pieces in the collection were bought by Ding Zhixin.

In the eyes of these boys, the charity auction is just a gimmick for them to come here, and the real purpose is to party and have fun.

After the auction, Fang Yong followed Zhuang Xian and the others to the bar on the side.

When Fang Yong and the others came to the bar, they found that there were a few people sitting in the bar, and there were still some people who didn't like the atmosphere of the auction very much.

Zhuang Xian ordered a few beers for everyone before sitting down in his seat and said, "Ding Zhixin, this guy is really bleeding a lot today!" ”

"Who made him so stingy?" Liu Jiantao said.

It seems that Liu Jiantao is more familiar with Ding Zhixin, and the two may not be on the right path.

Zhang Cunzhou said with a smile: "Hey! That can't be said, this is not called hemorrhage, this is called making a major contribution to public welfare! ”

When Zhang Cunzhou said this, everyone laughed.

Fang Yong thought in his heart, Ding Zhixin, who was wronged, spent so much money, and couldn't buy back a good reputation, it was really a big loss. (To be continued......)
