In the Guannei region today, Jiang Xinxin and the four major families are at the height of their power. After dividing up the Huang family, their strength has grown even stronger. Who would dare to challenge them?
This young man from Fengtian actually declared that he would take the heads of Jiang Xinxin and the four major families.
Is it genuine courage, or just excessive arrogance?
Lan Ling shook her head, her face bitter, and said, "I'm not trying to discourage you, but you probably don't understand the situation inside the pass. The current situation inside the pass is much more complicated than you imagine!"
Lin Yu smiled calmly, "Since it's so complicated, where did a little girl like you get the guts to humiliate Jiang Xinxin and the four major families in public?"
"If you can do something so courageous, how could I, a grown man, be any worse than you?" Lin Yu said, showing an admiring expression.
He and Feng Jiu were able to act in time because they were moved by the performance of this girl named Lan Ling.
Lin Yu regarded Huang Ziming as a younger brother, and he admired and appreciated Huang Ziming for daring to speak up for him under such circumstances.
Lan Ling blushed and bit her lip, saying, "I don't know about other things, but I do know that one must never forget one's roots! My Lan family has come this far thanks to the Huang family's support! Even if everyone in the world says the Huang family is bad, I, Lan Ling, cannot! Moreover, I know Ziming's character; he would never do such a destructive business!"
Lin Yu nodded. "That's right, I believe it too. That's why I came to Guannei to seek justice for Ziming! To clear the Huang family's name and to bring comfort to Uncle Huang's spirit in heaven!"
Lan Ling was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Are you related to the Huang family?"
Lin Yu shook his head. "We're not exactly relatives, but my father and Lord Huang have a life-or-death bond, and Ziming and I also have some camaraderie as peers! He calls me Brother Lin, so I won't ignore him!"
Lan Ling's beautiful eyes trembled.
Forest?
This surname is a bit sensitive!
I wonder if the Lin in the other party's name has any close relationship with the Lin in the name of Marshal Lin.
Could it be... that the other party is actually someone from within the Lin family?
However, being as clever as she was, she naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to ask such a question. Instead, she said solemnly, "Since Ziming calls you Brother Lin, then I'll call you Brother Lin too! Brother Lin, although I, Lan Ling, am not a big shot in the Guannei region, I do have some connections. If you need my help with Ziming's affairs, I will do my best and never refuse!"
Lin Yu smiled and nodded, "Your words are enough. I don't care about a mere woman and four dogs. There's no need for Miss Lan to trouble herself!"
Lan Ling was slightly taken aback, then frowned.
She naturally appreciated that the other party was willing to stand up for Huang Ziming, but the person's words were far too arrogant.
Even if you might have some connections with the Lin family, as the saying goes, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. Given the current situation in the interior, even if direct members of the Lin family came, they probably wouldn't be able to handle it.
She hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Lin, to be honest, I have also inquired about some information. It is said that the Huang family's matter this time is not as simple as just the four major families. Perhaps there is a bigger hand hiding behind it. I advise you to be more cautious!"
Lin Yu shook his head. "Thank you for your advice, but it's really not necessary to deal with a few insignificant families!"
Lan Ling was slightly taken aback, and then felt even more disappointed.
This man is incredibly arrogant!
As the eldest daughter of the Lan family, she has seen countless people. In the past, she was always very humble when she met those who were truly capable, while those who talked big in the end usually lost miserably!
She was initially pleased that someone was standing up for Huang Ziming, but now her joy was replaced by disappointment once again.
"Miss Lan, I'm here today for the 'Landscape Painting,' so I won't talk to you now. We can discuss it another time!"
Lin Yu said something and then led Feng Jiu toward the auction house.
"What? He's actually going to film 'The Landscape'?" Lan Ling reacted, her face filled with shock.
You should know that many powerful figures have come here today with substantial sums of money, all for the sake of "The Landscape Painting"!
Even the eldest son of the Hu family, one of the four major families, was determined to get his hands on this painting!
However, thinking of this, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. "That's fine! At least an auction can show a person's wealth. I want to see if you're just all show and no substance!"
Having made up her mind, she went back to her car, changed into a new outfit, and hurried toward the auction.
When she returned to the scene, Lin Yu and Feng Jiu had already returned to their seats.
When Lin Yu saw Lan Ling return, he was slightly taken aback, nodded with a smile, but then didn't say anything more.
Lan Ling, however, actually took the initiative to sit in the empty seat next to Lin Yu. She started a conversation with Lin Yu.
The others were amazed, wondering how Lan Ling had gotten to know these two strangers so quickly, and even chatted and laughed with them!
And what about Zhao Chen?
You have to understand, Lan Ling is Zhao Chen's fiancée. Zhao Chen is such a petty person, would he let this go?
Just as everyone was racking their brains trying to figure it out, a bell rang, and the auction began!
A beautiful and elegant female host stepped onto the stage and addressed the audience: "I'm sure everyone is looking forward to today's auction, as it's Ms. Jiang's special session! Some of the items up for auction have been the talk of the town for the past few days, and I'm sure all of you have brought plenty of money! Without further ado, let's get started. Please welcome the first item!"
brush!
As soon as he finished speaking, a staff member wearing white gloves brought up a precious piece of porcelain.
"A set of five Qing Dynasty Guangxu period blue and white porcelain glass bowls, starting bid: eight million!"
Wow!
The entire venue erupted in cheers. No one expected this auction to be so high-caliber, with such a significant treasure right off the bat!
It's important to know that blue and white porcelain is highly sought after in the world of collecting, let alone a complete set. On the market, such a set would cost at least tens of millions of yuan, and even then, it's not guaranteed that you can buy one!
"Eight million one hundred thousand!"
"Eight million five hundred thousand!"
Nine million!
Immediately, some shop owners who liked this kind of food started asking for a price!
Lan Ling glanced at Lin Yu. "This blue and white porcelain is indeed a rare treasure. Doesn't Mr. Lin like it?"
She did hope that Lin Yu would give it a try and see his strength.
Lin Yu shook his head. "The blue and white porcelain set is indeed very nice, but I have too many of these at home. If it were from the Qianlong period, I might consider it, but the Guangxu period..."
At this point, Lin Yu shook his head again, his eyes full of disdain.
Lan Ling was slightly taken aback.
She knows antiques too; a set of antiques from the Qianlong era, wouldn't that be worth hundreds of millions?
That's just bragging!
