They couldn't afford anything in Hong Kong, so they might as well stay in their room and watch TV.
Yan Ning looked at Zhang Kai and said, "Brother Zhang, please ask your boss if he's available tomorrow. I need a favor from him."
Zhang Kai nodded. "Okay, I'll tell the boss. If there's any news, I'll call you at your hotel."
After Zhang Kai drove away, Qin Limin asked:
"Yan Ning, do you have something to go out for tomorrow? Do you want me to accompany you?"
Yan Ning is his niece after all. He must care about her as a little girl going out in a strange city.
Yan Ning: "It's okay, Fourth Uncle. I'm not sure if Uncle Peng will be free tomorrow.
So I don’t know whether I should go out tomorrow or not. I’ll decide tomorrow.”
She wanted to sell some antique calligraphy and paintings, which the wealthy people in Hong Kong liked to collect, so she wanted to ask Peng Shiqing to help introduce them.
If she were to rely on herself to explore Hong Kong City, she really wouldn't be able to accomplish anything. She still needs connections to help her make connections.
Since she has the relationship with her uncle, why not make use of it?
She was not afraid that Yan Guodong would know what she had done in Gangcheng, as she was not going to do anything shameful.
Several people returned to their hotel rooms and went back to their rooms to rest.
…
The next day was Sunday.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, Yan Ning delivered the goods to the 21st Century and returned to the hotel room.
She left the room and saw Qin Liming and Director You watching TV in the living room.
Yan Ning walked over and sat on the sofa, picked up the magazine on the table and started reading.
More than an hour later, the doorbell of the suite rang.
"Who is this?"
Qin Liming muttered something and walked over to open the door.
The person standing outside was a staff member from the hotel lobby. She smiled as if she was wearing a standard smile and said:
"Hello, is Miss Yan Ning here? Mr. Peng called and went to the lobby downstairs to look for her. He asked Miss Yan Ning to call him back later."
"Yan Ning" Qin Liming turned his head and looked towards the living room and called out.
But Yan Ning had already walked over, "Okay, I got it, I'll go down now."
Yan Ning looked at Qin Limin again, "Fourth Uncle, I'm going to the lobby."
Qin Liming nodded and closed the door after she left.
Yan Ning came to the hotel lobby and called back the number that Peng Shiqing had just called.
After waiting for a while, the call was connected.
Yan Ning: "Hello, is this Uncle Peng? I'm Yan Ning."
Peng Shiqing's cheerful voice came from the microphone, "Yes, it's me. I heard Zhang Kai say that you need my help with something? What is it?"
Yan Ning: "Uncle Peng, I came to Hong Kong this time and brought a few antique calligraphy and paintings to sell.
I wonder if Uncle Peng knows anyone who likes to collect these things.
If you know someone, I hope Uncle Peng can help introduce them and make some connections."
Peng Shiqing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that a little girl like Yan Ning would understand these things.
However, if she wants to sell it, she can only trade in Hong Kong dollars. Even if she exchanges the Hong Kong dollars for RMB and brings it back to the mainland, there is a limit on the amount.
So what did she need so many Hong Kong dollars for? And she came prepared, so did Ah Dong know about her niece?
Peng Shiqing pondered for a moment and said, "These things are what the wealthy people in Hong Kong like to play with.
I do know a few people who like to collect antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
I will call them later and ask them to come to my house.
How about you bring your stuff over there and show it to them?
By the way, what do you have in your hand? I can tell them later."
Yan Ning: "I have a Tang Dynasty sancai horse, a blue and white peony-patterned ewer, and a painting of the Heavenly King Delivering a Child by Wu Daozi."
Peng Shiqing took a deep breath and asked, "Is Wu Daozi's painting of the Heavenly King Delivering a Child authentic?"
Even though he didn't understand antique calligraphy and paintings, he knew how valuable the original works of famous calligraphers in ancient times were.
Moreover, this painting is Wu Daozi's Heavenly King Delivering a Child, which has a very auspicious meaning for the wealthy people in Hong Kong. If it is an authentic one, it will definitely sell for a good price.
Yan Ning said in a very confident tone: "If they are sure it is authentic, they can also find someone to authenticate it."
Peng Shiqing chuckled. "Well, since I also want to see the original painting of the Heavenly King Delivering a Child, I will definitely do my best to introduce it to you."
Yan Ning smiled and thanked him, "Then I'll trouble you, Uncle Peng. Regardless of success or failure, I will treat you to a meal afterwards."
After the person on the other end hung up the phone, Yan Ning put down the receiver and looked at the time on his watch. It was almost eleven o'clock.
She went to the restaurant on the first floor, ordered four dishes and three bowls of rice, and asked the waiter to prepare them and send them to their suite.
After paying, she took the elevator to the ninth floor, came to the door of their suite and rang the doorbell.
After a few seconds, Qin Limin came to open the door, "You're back."
Yan Ning hummed and entered the room. "I just ordered lunch at the restaurant on the first floor. Someone will bring it up later."
When Director You heard this, he asked her how much the meal cost and gave it to her.
