Yan Ning: "It's okay, it's just a small amount of money, no need to reimburse, I'll pay for this meal!"
Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.
Yan Ning went over and opened the door, and outside was the waiter delivering the food.
"Hello, your lunch is ready."
Yan Ning nodded slightly and moved aside to let the waiter push the dining cart into the living room.
After putting down the dishes, the waiter looked at the people.
"When the guests have finished their meal, just press the bell next to the door switch and someone will come up to clear the tableware."
Yan Ning smiled and said, "Okay, we got it."
After the waiter left, the three of them started eating.
Yan Ning was thinking about finding something for Qin Liming and Director You to do in the next two days to distract their attention.
Otherwise, the two of them would have stayed in the room watching TV for the whole week, and they would have become more and more anxious the longer they waited.
She thought of the canned food the two men brought with them when they came to Hong Kong City, and an idea came to her mind.
"Director You, I remember you brought a lot of canned food when you came here. How much is left now?"
Director You thought for a moment, "There seem to be five or six bottles left. What's the matter? If you want some, take it yourself. It's on the table over there by the sofa."
Yan Ning: "I'm not eating. I'm thinking that there are still so many cans left. You two have nothing to do these days.
Why not go to the food stores on the street and see if you can sell these canned goods?
If we can sign a few orders, it will be a good thing for both you and the food factory."
"Yes! This is a good idea." Qin Limin agreed immediately, but hesitated for a moment.
"I just don't know if our new canned food with improved flavor will suit the taste of people in Hong Kong."
Director You: "Let's give it a try first. Even foreigners like our food factory's newly improved canned food. Maybe people in Hong Kong will like it too."
Yan Ning swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Didn't you send a few cans of food to Uncle Peng? I'll ask his opinion for you tomorrow."
But they don’t necessarily eat it themselves.
After finishing the meal, Yan Ning pressed the bell for the waiter to come up and clear the dishes.
Qin Liming and Director You continued to watch TV in the living room.
Yan Ning returned to his room and entered the space to take care of the vegetables, fruits and medicinal herbs.
At around 5:30 in the afternoon, Yan Ning heard a knock on the door outside in the space.
She left the space, opened the door, and the person knocking on the door was Qin Liming.
Qin Limin saw Yan Ning and said, "Yan Ning, the staff in the hotel lobby said someone downstairs called looking for you."
There should be news from Peng Shiqing.
"Okay, I got it." Yan Ning responded, closed the door, and went downstairs to the hotel lobby to make a phone call.
She dialed the number that had just called and waited for a while before the call was connected.
Yan Ning: "Hello, I'm Yan Ning."
Peng Shiqing's voice came from the microphone, "Yan Ning, it's me. I have news about the matter you asked me to do.
I made a few phone calls this afternoon and found out that all the wealthy people expressed their interest in the Tianwang Delivering a Child painting.
I have arranged for them to come to my house to watch the show at 1:00 PM tomorrow. I will send Zhang Kai to pick you up at 12:00 PM tomorrow.
Just bring your stuff with you when the time comes."
Yan Ning said gratefully, "Okay, I understand. Thank you so much, Uncle Peng."
Peng Shiqing smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. I just helped out. I don't owe you any favors.
On the contrary, no matter who buys the painting of the Heavenly King Delivering a Child tomorrow, they should thank me.
Without my help, they would not have been able to see this treasure, let alone buy it."
Having said that, Yan Ning still expressed her sincere gratitude. After all, if it weren't for Peng Shiqing's introduction, she wouldn't know who to sell it to.
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before hanging up the phone.
Yan Ning turned around and was about to take the elevator upstairs when he saw Qin Liming and Director You standing not far away.
She walked over and asked, "Fourth Uncle, Director You, why did you come down?"
Qin Limin: "It's almost time for dinner. Why don't we just come down and wait for you to finish your call and then go to the restaurant to eat together."
Yan Ning raised his hand to check the time. It was almost six o'clock. "Let's go!"
The three of them went into the restaurant on the first floor and ordered the dishes they wanted. Director You paid for the meal and he would reimburse the bill when he returned.
After dinner, they returned to their rooms to rest.
…
The next morning, Yan Ning didn't get up until ten o'clock. She first ate a bowl of beef noodles in the space.
Then he washed up, changed into a more mature and stable set of clothes and left the space.
She emptied the suitcase and wrapped the three antiques she was going to sell today in cotton cloth and put them into the suitcase.
Looking at the very empty box, she took some cotton from the space and stuffed it into the box to fill the gaps around the antiques to prevent them from being damaged.
It was almost half past eleven when they finished packing, and Yan Ning carried his suitcase out of the room.
Qin Limin saw Yan Ning coming out with a box and asked curiously, "Yan Ning, what are you going to do?"
"There's news on the matter I asked Uncle Peng to help me with yesterday. I'll go check it out today.
I may not be back until evening, so don't wait for me for lunch or dinner."
Yan Ning explained to the two of them.
