Chapter 71: The Auction
Song Jianing knew that Lin Xuan didn't like to be lively, so he took him to a corner on the third floor, took a glass of champagne from the side, put it on the table, blinked his eyes, and said, "Master, you sit here first, and I'll come over to accompany you later." ”
Lin Xuan also knew that she was the protagonist of today, and she had a lot of things to deal with, so she nodded.
He sat alone in a secluded corner, holding a glass of fine champagne, taking a sip from time to time, and looking at the people who came and went on the third floor of 'Dingsheng International', and the groups of people who were talking in groups of threes and twos, he suddenly felt bored.
These people can obviously feel much more upscale than the second-floor people in terms of temperament, conversation and clothing, all in suits and leather shoes, talking and laughing, Lin Xuan even saw a few characters who often appear on the news and TV, but he didn't expect that the birthday of the junior of the Song family could attract them all.
It didn't take long for the birthday party to officially start, Song Jianing was wearing a high-end black evening dress, looking a little more sexy than before, and slowly walked out under the support of everyone, and the lights at this time were deliberately dimmed.
A huge cake cart was pushed out with eighteen candles on it.
Lin Xuan only knew at this time that today was his apprentice's 18th birthday, no wonder he would hold a grand birthday banquet here.
Song Jianing closed his eyes amid the blessings of everyone, made a wish, and then blew out the candle.
After cutting the cake, everyone gave the gifts they brought to Song Jianing one by one, which seemed to be worth a lot of money.
Song Jianing also thanked them politely, and worked hard for a long time before she could deal with these people, she hurriedly walked in front of Lin Xuan, followed by two women who were also extraordinary.
"Master, let me introduce you, these are my two best friends, my best friend, this is Lu Tiantian. ”
Lin Xuan smiled and nodded, "Hello." ”
"You... Good. Lu Tiantian took the opportunity to look at Lin Xuan silently, to see how extraordinary the miraculous master who was blown by Song Jianing was.
But when she saw Lin Xuan for the first time, she was full of disappointment in her heart, this... It's Jianing's master? It's too ordinary, and he looks about the same age as us, just a hairy young man.
Song Jianing then introduced to Lin Xuan: "This is Ma Sichun, it's ......"
Lin Xuan smiled: "I know, the two of us are still classmates, are we squad leader Ma?"
Ma Sichun smiled and nodded.
Song Jianing, who was on the side, was taken aback, looked at the two of them in surprise, and said, "You two are classmates?"
Through the conversation later, Lu Tiantian knew that Lin Xuan was a student of Jinling University, and in addition, there seemed to be no other background and surprising places, and he didn't know what Song Jianing had taken a fancy to him?
"By the way, I forgot to give you a gift when I came this time, so let's give this to you. ”
Lin Xuan only remembered to give a birthday gift at this time, but he forgot to prepare, so he had to see what he had on his body.
He took off his bracelet from his wrist, took a small jade from underneath, and handed it to Song Jianing.
Last time, he got a piece of superb jade from Chen Beixuan, and he carved it into several jade talismans, and gave one to his parents each, and the rest was all in his own hands.
Song Jianing didn't send anything when he was apprenticed, but this time he just sent it all at once.
Song Jianing took the jade talisman with surprise, put it in his hand, and said, "Thank you, master." ”
Lin Xuan nodded, this jade talisman was engraved with three small methods by himself, namely the Golden Light Array, the Meditation Array, and the Gathering Spirit Array, which not only has the effect of protection, but also has the effect of calming the mind and enhancing the physique, and long-term wearing has great benefits for the body.
However, when he saw the gift given by Lin Xuan, Lu Tiantian looked at Lin Xuan with even more disdain, looking at the condition, this bracelet is estimated to be a stall, and it is estimated that it is only about a few dozen yuan.
Such a thing was even taken out, hehe, you must know which one of the present's gifts was not more than tens of thousands, and a Patek Philippe watch that he gave to Jianing was worth hundreds of thousands.
An idea suddenly appeared in her mind, this person named Lin Xuan couldn't be a liar?
Lin Xuan didn't expect to be regarded as a liar, after his bracelet was recognized by Wang Xu and his father, he deliberately dealt with it, it didn't look so conspicuous, but he didn't expect to be misunderstood by Lu Tiantian.
After everyone chatted for a while, Song Jianing grabbed Lin Xuan's hand, stood up, and said, "Master, I'll take you to a fun place." ”
Obviously, she saw that Lin Xuan was a little bored here, and there was no match when chatting, so she wanted to take Lin Xuan to another place.
Lin Xuan was pulled by Song Jianing, and finally he didn't know where he came, and when he opened the mahogany door, he saw an empty hall, and there were many people sitting in the front, and a middle-aged uncle in a suit and leather shoes stood in the front, holding a microphone in his hand, and a small hammer next to him.
"This is ......" Lin Xuan looked surprised.
The suddenly opened door attracted many people's side eyes, but when they saw that it was Song Jianing, many people showed smiles on their faces and withdrew their gaze.
Song Jianing pulled Lin Xuan to find an empty seat and sit down, Ma Sichun and Lu Tiantian also followed, and sat next to them, looking calm, obviously they knew what they were doing.
Lin Xuan glanced at the audience and found that many of the people at the banquet just now were here at this time, it seemed that they were not only attending Song Jianing's birthday banquet today, I am afraid this is their real purpose.
As soon as they sat down, several people sealed the door where they had just entered, and at this time, the middle-aged man in front of them picked up a small hammer and knocked it gently, making a crisp sound.
"Okay guys, many of you here are old friends, we met again this year, and there are a lot of new faces, I'm afraid you don't know me, but it's okay, I promise you'll remember me next, don't talk nonsense, the annual heyday auction will start soon, and the first auction item will be invited. ”
Lin Xuan had already understood, this turned out to be an auction, and Song Jianing next to him also introduced it to him.
Dingsheng International basically holds an auction every year, which is not like "Sotheby's" or "Christie's" and other big auction houses, which auction antiques, luxury goods, artworks, and all kinds of strange things are auctioned here.
For example, hundreds of years old ginseng, unknown utensils, and even all kinds of mysterious things.
It is said that everyone is not interested in this kind of thing, but on the contrary, the rich and powerful people in Jinling are flocking to it, because they are not like those low-level ordinary people who are kept in the dark, and some of the things they come into contact with tell them that the world is not as simple as it seems.
Song Jianing gagged on the side and said, "I don't know where the Chu family got so many strange things." ”
Lin Xuan's heart moved, but he still had a smile on his face, but he was thinking about this auction in his heart, maybe he just had what he needed.
Lu Tiantian on the side said: "I'm afraid that no one in the current Chu family in Jinling dares to frustrate its edge, and it can reach this level in just a few years, Chu Jianghe is worthy of being a generation of heroes, I am afraid that when Chu Minghui and Qin Zhixi officially announce their relationship, the Chu family will officially reach the top of Jiangnan Province." ”
Ma Sichun also sighed for a while: "One is a recent financial tycoon, and the other is one of the four major families in Jinling, who can stop the connection between them?"
"Qin Zhixi will not marry Chu Minghui. ”
A sudden voice broke the emotion of the two.
Lu Tiantian looked at Lin Xuan, his face was disdainful, and said, "Who do you think you are?" If you say no, you won't, I'm afraid that the old men of our families will not dare to say this, do you think you can compare to the old men of our families?"
Lin Xuan said coldly: "I said no, no." ”
Lu Tiantian was about to say something, but was stopped by Ma Sichun on the side, she glared at Lin Xuan fiercely, snorted coldly, and turned her face.
"Hmph, what kind of character do you really think of, if it weren't for Jianing, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to you?"
Lin Xuan's face was calm, without the slightest abnormality, what he said did not need the approval of others, because what he said was the result, and no one could change it.
Song Jianing knew about Lin Xuan and Qin Zhixi, and when she saw Lin Xuan's expression, she felt a little lonely.
At this time, the first auction item appeared, and Lin Xuan straightened his face and looked ahead, hoping to encounter a few things he needed.
What he didn't expect was that the first collection turned out to be what he needed.
