Chapter 221 The Real Coming of Age Ceremony
"That's right!" Du Desheng immediately revived with full health and a strong sense of mission.
"These days, if you rely on mountains, they will fall; if you rely on people, they will run away. As for men, nine out of ten are unreliable, and the remaining one is even more outrageous. Even if he looks good now, who can guarantee that he won't change in the future? The family still needs to keep an eye on him!"
Qin Yanqing: “…” Have you forgotten that you are also a man? Some people will even scold themselves when they get ruthless.
However, in some ways, this old man is really easy to please.
Xi Jingyue's 500 million was not obtained after all. When Du Desheng saw him off, his face was full of expression saying "This is just the first time, it won't happen again, get out of here now."
Xi Jingyue didn't care and just reminded Duan Rao: "You'd better confirm the matter of the auction house with your master as soon as possible. My suggestion is that if what they said is true, it's not impossible to take over this auction house."
Xi Jingyue said, then changed the subject: "It's just that before taking over, it's best to find some professional financial and lawyers to carefully sort out the accounts of these years to prevent some uncontrollable loopholes from occurring within the auction house. My company has a professional financial and legal team that is responsible for handling these matters all year round. If you need anything, you can contact me at any time."
Xi Jing had considered every aspect for her, and Du Anrao was somewhat touched.
"Yeah, I'll call you if I need you."
Du Desheng frowned as he listened to what the two said, but he didn't say anything because he was thinking about Xi Jingyue's master and taking over the auction house.
As soon as the others left, he immediately asked, "What's the matter with taking over the auction house? Is it the auction house of the Wen family? What is your relationship with the Wen family? Why did his auction house let you take over?"
Maybe there is some big hole that cannot be filled, and he wants to use his precious granddaughter as a scapegoat!
Du Desheng obviously had the same idea as Du Anrao. Pies don't fall from the sky easily, especially such a big piece of pie. If you don't pay attention, who knows if you will be hit to death by the objects thrown from high altitude.
Du Anrao briefly mentioned to the old man what the Wen family father and son said in the box. Du Desheng was greatly surprised after hearing it. He was surprised by the relationship between the Wen family and Master Du Anrao, and even more surprised by the master Du Anrao's amazing foresight!
"So, this auction house is actually an asset that your master bought for you a long time ago."
"Having said that, I was still unsure, so I didn't agree to take over the auction house right away. I just said I would come back to confirm with my master and then give them a reply."
"You are right to do this. This matter is incredible in itself, not to mention that such a long time has passed. Things are bound to change. It won't hurt to be more cautious. Go and confirm with your master. If it is really as they say, grandpa will support you. You must take back what belongs to you. No one can play tricks on me!"
Duan Rao felt that he hadn't even started yet, but he still nodded obediently: "Thank you, Grandpa."
After attending the auction, I chatted with two elderly people and it was already late at night.
Du Anrao glanced at the time and saw that it was already the next morning. Thinking of her master's daily routine of cultivating immortals, she happily ran to poke him.
Forgive others when you can: Master, are you there? Are you still alive? Are you still breathing? Are you still warm?
The person who was obsessed with cultivating immortality in the middle of the night replied immediately.
Heart as calm as water: ==The soul is calling you in the middle of the night!
Heart as Still as Water: I am already dead. Burn paper for small matters, summon the spirit for small matters, and dig the grave for big matters. [Playing Dead.jpg]
Forgive others when you can: Master~~~ [grabbing the shoulders and shaking hard.jpg] Do you know a father and son with the surname Wen?
Xin Ru Zhi Shui: [Zha Zang.jpg] Did you go to the auction? Did you buy back the precious inheritance that your master left for you?
Du Anrao was embarrassed. Master, you are still alive, and you are already leaving the inheritance!
Forgive others when you can: That piece of stone with spiritual essence, right? We have got it back.
Xin Ru Zhi Shui: I knew you were the fattest one! [The old father was moved to tears.jpg]
Du Anrao: ==You are fat, your whole family is fat, no, your whole family includes me!
Be merciful when you can: Be serious! Let's talk business! The old man from the Wen family said that you asked them to open the auction house, and now you want to transfer it to me, and give me all the income from the auction house over the years in one lump sum. Is that true?
Xin Ru Zhi Shui: Of course it’s true. You don’t think that the only gift your master gave you as a coming-of-age gift was a string of broken copper coins, do you?
Duanrao was stunned, a light bulb went off in his head, and he looked surprised.
Forgive others when you can: In other words, this auction house is your 18th birthday present to me?
This string of Five Emperors' coins given to her on her birthday was a token of trust agreed upon by her master and Grandpa Wen. Whoever showed up at the auction house with the token would be the future owner of the auction house.
Therefore, the Five Emperors’ Coins are just the key to open the gift, and the real birthday gift is actually this auction house.
It was just that her second cousin happened to be in trouble at that time, so she naturally thought that her master had anticipated this incident and had Xiaobai send the Five Emperors' Coins as her birthday gift...
Forgive others when you can: ==Master, you hid it too well. Aren’t you afraid that I will never come here in my lifetime and the gift behind it will be wasted?
Heart as calm as still water: What is destined to be yours will come to you, and what is not destined to be yours will come to you even if you don't go for it.
Duanrao's heart moved slightly, and he felt weird when he thought of the stone chasing him.
Having said that, Du Anrao still felt unsure about having an additional property that everyone envied, and it was handed to her by a stranger.
As if he could see what she was thinking, the usually unreliable master finally became reliable for once.
Heart as Still as Water: Don't feel any psychological pressure. The money used to build the auction house was originally a thank-you gift that the Wen family promised to give me. Besides, do you really think that the people in the Wen family have never had any bad thoughts about this auction in the past 20 years? It's not that they don't want this auction house, but they don't dare to have it.
Forgive others when you can: Don't dare to ask? Why do you say that?
It turns out that the auction house has been going smoothly since its establishment and has developed at an astonishing speed.
As it grew in size, became more famous, and made more and more money, the Wen family inevitably became more concerned.
Just as Du Anrao worried, many relatives of the Wen family who claimed to be the veterans of the auction house felt that what they had done over the years, even if not meritorious, was at least hard work, and had long surpassed the so-called behind-the-scenes boss who only provided the start-up capital but never showed up and did not take care of anything.
Even with the Wen family father and son putting pressure on them, they still couldn't stop this group of people from wanting to get a piece of the pie from the auction house.
But these people soon discovered that once they had evil intentions towards the auction, their own industry would be affected, and whatever they took out from the auction house, they would have to pay back double.
