Chapter 243: Difficult Situation

On the second floor, Jiang Hao and Lang Qing entered the box together, and then sat down on the sofa in the box.

This box is for the most exclusive guests, and although it is small, even very narrow, it has everything inside.

Sofas, coffee tables, drinks, tea, and even red wine are all available, and there is a large LCD monitor embedded in the wall in the box, which shows the scene of the auction outside.

The sound of the auction scene and so on also came out of this LCD monitor with almost no delay.

There is also a ticker and a microphone on the coffee table, which can be used to talk to the outside.

Such a device can really be described in four words: intimate and thoughtful!

Lang Qing looked at Jiang Hao and asked, "Are you very familiar with that Zhao Meilin?" ”

"I've met her before and attended her birthday party." Jiang Hao said lightly.

Lang Qing nodded and said, "I thought you knew about the situation in her family." ”

"What, is she in a bad situation at home?" Jiang Hao asked with a smile, he was indeed a little curious.

Lang Qing said: "Zhao Meilin is a member of the Zhao family, and the time has been pushed forward by 20 years, and the Zhao family is also a first-line wealthy family. Twenty years ago in Donglin City, there were still three wealthy families, namely the Zheng family, the Zhou family, and the Zhao family. ”

But now it is not the Zheng family, the Zhou family, and the Zhao family, but the Zheng family, the Zhou family, and the Luo family.

According to this, in the past 20 years, a certain major event has happened, which has caused the Zhao family, which was once a first-line wealthy family, to decline, while the Luo family seized the opportunity to go further and successfully ascended to the throne and became one of the three wealthy families in Donglin City.

Seeing that Jiang Hao didn't seem to know the details very well, Lang Qing patiently explained: "The head of the Zhao family is named Zhao Donglai, and he is Zhao Meilin's grandfather. The Zhao family's business suffered a heavy blow back then because the Luo family set up a bureau, and Zhao Meilin's father accidentally stepped into it, so he was trapped, which directly led to the loss of six billion yuan for the Zhao family. ”

Six billion!

This is not a small number for any big family!

Even if it is the current Zheng family, if it loses six billion for no reason, it will definitely hurt its muscles and bones, and if it is not handled well, it will fall from the position of a first-line wealthy family and become a second-rate.

Lang Qing again

said: "If it was just a loss of 600 million, it would be fine, under this blow, Zhao Meilin's father couldn't afford to be sick, and he actually gave up and returned to the West." Zhao Donglai, the head of the Zhao family, who had already retired, was Zhao Meilin's grandfather, so he had to preside over the overall situation with the pain of losing his son, and finally controlled the situation. So the Zhao family just fell from the position of a first-line wealthy family, and did not really decline. ”

But the Luo family and the Zhao family have become enemies because of this, and over the years, the Luo family has been looking for an opportunity to attack the Zhao family. Recently, some news has come out that Zhao Meilin's grandfather Zhao Donglai is dying and may pass away soon. ”

"If Zhao Donglai's pillar is gone, then the Zhao family will be really dangerous, and Zhao Meilin's family can't afford to bear such a heavy burden. And none of Zhao Meilin's uncles and uncles can speak as sonorously as Zhao Donglai. ”

Jiang Hao understands the current situation of the Zhao family, and he also understands why Zhao Meilin is here tonight.

If that spiritual grass can really prolong people's lives for twenty years, then as long as they get their hands on it, Zhao Donglai will be able to hold on for another twenty years, and the Zhao family will be able to continue to hold on for another twenty years.

These twenty years are enough for Zhao Meilin to grow up gradually.

But if you don't get this spirit grass, it will really be over, Zhao Donglai will die soon, and at that time, Zhao Meilin can only watch his family decline step by step, and finally completely remove from the wealthy families in Donglin City!

The reality is really cruel!

"Mr. Jiang, are you going to help that Zhao Meilin?" Lang Qing looked at Jiang Hao with a smile.

Jiang Hao knew what Lang Qing meant, and he said lightly: "I'm already married, I love my wife very much, don't joke about this kind of thing." ”

"Hehe......"

Lang Qing laughed twice and didn't say anything more.

The auction began.

A woman in her thirties, dressed up, stood on the stage to preside over tonight's auction.

She was dressed very boldly, and Bai Huahua's shoulders and thighs were all exposed, which made the atmosphere high and the mood of the guests was high.

"The first auction item is a calligraphy and painting, which is a calligraphy and painting master in the Tang Dynasty......"

With the introduction of this female auctioneer, a calligraphy and painting was sent to the stage by two young women, and the long-arm camera on the side of the stage immediately turned around, came to the front to shoot the calligraphy and painting, and adjusted the calligraphy and painting to the maximum, so that the guests present could see the calligraphy and painting clearly through the large screen on the stage.

And the LCD screen in the box was also occupied by this calligraphy and painting.

But whether it was Jiang Hao or Lang Qing, they were not moved.

"You should have something you want to shoot when you come here tonight, right?" Jiang Hao asked.

Lang Qing shook his head and said, "I didn't know about tonight's auction in advance, and I don't even know what auction items will appear at the auction later...... Look, if there's anything fun alive, I'll probably do it. If not, I wouldn't waste my money. ”

Jiang Hao nodded approvingly.

Money doesn't mean much to a warrior, but it doesn't mean that a warrior necessarily has money.

Jiang Hao's own savings totaled more than 100 million and less than 200 million, and Lang Qing must be richer than him, after all, he was the big boss of the Red Jade Hotel.

But even so, it can't be compared with those business tycoons and people from big families.

Therefore, if there is something really valuable, then bid again, if not, forget it, just come over tonight to relax and open your eyes.

"The starting price of this calligraphy and painting is 5 million! Each increase must not be less than 50,000! Filming is now officially underway! The auctioneer on the stage shook her magnificent breasts and shouted to the guests below.

As soon as her voice fell, someone immediately asked for a price: "I'll pay six million!" ”

"I'll give six and two million!"

"I'm six million three thousand!"

"I'm one hundred and three hundred and fifty thousand!"

More than a dozen boss-looking people bidd, and the price of the calligraphy and painting rose all the way, and soon broke through the seven million mark.

But the upward momentum did not stop there, and after almost five minutes, there were finally no bidders on the scene.

fo

As a result, the calligraphy and painting was sold at a price of 8.3 million yuan and fell into the hands of an old man with a two-handed mustache.

This old man is still dressed in a Tang costume, and it can be seen that he is the older generation, maybe he knows calligraphy and painting very well.
