Chapter 168 Misunderstanding
Hanmingxuan manager Dong Wenbo said the door to the auction house is a wooden door, and there is a carved screen in front of the door.
When they saw someone coming out from behind the screen, everyone sitting in the hall looked confused.
Dong Wenbo walked in alone, then walked onto the stage with a smile and picked up the microphone.
Dong Wenbo sincerely apologized to all the guests in the audience.
"I'm very sorry, dear guests, due to some unexpected circumstances, the auction process has just been suspended. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Now, I declare that the auction will continue. Come, please, please take the second lot."
Dong Wenbo did not explain why the auction was suspended.
Just because he didn't explain doesn't mean the people in the audience weren't curious.
Even some people have noticed something strange.
Han Mingxuan's auction hall is divided into two floors.
The first floor is the hall seating.
The second floor is in the private room.
The seats in the hall are in the middle.
The private rooms are above, to the left, right and behind the seats.
There are five private rooms in total.
Three of the private rooms are reserved for the three top families in Handu.
The remaining two are reserved for the shareholders of Hanmingxuan.
If there is someone in the private room, a red light above the door will light up.
Today, the lights in the four private rooms on the left and right sides are all on.
The best remaining position is at the back, in the private room in the middle, but the lights are not on yet.
However, when Dong Wenbo came back, someone noticed that the light in the middle private room was on.
This proves that someone entered the private room.
To ensure the privacy of the private room.
When entering the private room, there is another secret passage.
Therefore, the guests on the first floor cannot see how the people in the private rooms on the second floor enter.
Guests in the private rooms on the second floor can have a panoramic view of the first floor and the items being auctioned on the stage through the large screen in the room.
The private rooms are not exclusive.
The guests who enter the private room are randomly assigned to each room.
Therefore, sometimes even guests in the private rooms on the second floor will not know who is in the other rooms. The confidentiality is very good.
When others noticed that the light in the last private room was on, they remembered that Dong Wenbo had just suspended the auction schedule.
Suddenly, I was extremely surprised.
Dong Wenbo is not only the manager of Hanmingxuan, but also a shareholder of Hanmingxuan.
Although I am only a small shareholder.
However, no one dared to underestimate him.
Because Dong Wenbo is from the Dong family in Handu.
And he is the nephew of the head of the Dong family.
Therefore, no one in Han dared to underestimate him.
It was also because of this that no one dared to object when he wanted to suspend the auction just now.
However, even with such a background, Dong Wenbo actually paused the auction and went out to personally greet the last person in the private room.
It is conceivable how complicated this person's identity is.
So, the auction was going on, but people in the audience and even in the private rooms couldn't help but whisper to each other and talk.
"See? The light in the middle compartment is on."
"I see. It seems that Dong Wenbo went out just now to greet the people in the private room."
"I'm just wondering, what is Dong Wenbo's status? The Dong family members are already in the private room. Who is worthy of him going out to greet them personally?"
"Could it be that Mr. Jin, the big boss of Hanmingxuan, has arrived?"
…
Even He Yiming and Luo Jun thought that Jinlinchi had arrived.
Luo Jun, in particular, became more confident after he mistakenly thought that the person in the private room was Jin Linchi.
He held himself high and looked at He Yiming with a look of both pride and contempt.
"He Yiming, did you see that? Mr. Jin is here. I didn't expect him to be so polite and come in person. I must treat him to a drink when the time comes."
After hearing what Luo Jun said, He Yiming's face became even worse.
He thought that the Golden Scale Pool in the private room was really for Luo Jun.
My mood was extremely depressed.
He thought that he would not be able to get the finale of today's auction.
Everyone else thought that the He family really wanted to marry into the Nian family.
However, the He family had no intention of marrying into another family.
Otherwise, his sister He Jia would not have allowed Lin Tianxing, who was just an actor, to marry her.
He asked his family to find a way to arrange marriage with the Nian family because he liked the eldest daughter of the Nian family and fell in love with Nian Menghan, who had just returned to China, at first sight.
In fact, Luo Jun and Jin Linchi were not at the point where they could drink together.
He only met Jin Linchi through another shareholder of Han Mingxuan.
At that time, he told Jin Linchi about the finale of the auction. Jin Linchi just nodded and didn't say anything.
Luo Jun thought he agreed.
Now, the thought that Dong Bowen had just gone to pick up Jin Linchi made him even more convinced that Jin Linchi was here to help him shake things up.
Even Dong Wenbo might have been asked to remove the finale item.
He originally thought that Jinlinchi would only give Dong Wenbo an instruction, but he didn't expect him to come in person to make a scene.
This shows that Jinlinchi values him very much!
Luo Jun felt that Jin Linchi must have thought he was a talented person, which was why he helped him.
The more he thought about it, the more confident and proud Luo Jun became.
After all, if he could catch the eye of Jin Linchi, his status in the Luo family would rise sharply in the future.
The people in the private room on the second floor had the same idea as the people downstairs. They also thought that Jinlinchi had arrived.
Among them, Dong Shijun, the patriarch of the Dong family, said to his son Dong Botong, "The one who asked Bowen to pick him up personally must be Lao Lin. The old man, the last time I called him, he said he was abroad. He didn't even tell me he was back. I think he just wants to get his collection of fine wine."
Dong Botong looked at his father with a mixture of laughter and tears, and he acted like a naughty old boy.
"Dad, Uncle Lin isn't that stingy. He came back suddenly this time, maybe because of something else."
Dong Shijun disagreed, "What else could have happened that would have made him return home in such a hurry?"
"Dad, have you forgotten about the marriage alliance with the Nian family?" Dong Botong reminded him, "After all, Nian Menghan is Uncle Lin's niece. If she wants to choose a son-in-law, Uncle Lin will definitely come back."
"snort……"
Dong Shijun snorted coldly, "Marriage? Everyone knows that the old man in the Nian family loves his granddaughter Nian Menghan the most. Would he be willing to let his granddaughter marry? That's just a smokescreen thrown by that old man."
"That old guy is fishing!"
After all, they have known each other for decades. Dong Shijun knows Nian Hongda, the head of the Nian family, not a hundred percent, but at least more than ninety percent.
The Nian family is different from their Dong family.
He only has one son, and he is an outstanding one. He can rest assured that he will hand over the Dong family to his son in the future.
But the Nian family is different. Nian Hongda has four sons.
For the position of heir, the four sons fought to the death.
Almost every day is spent in various quarrels and farces.
In order to gain the position of heir, he even took ruthless action against his own brothers.
I heard that Nian Menghan’s parents and the car accident at the horse farm that year were related to her three good uncles.
Because after the car accident, Nian Menghan's parents died, and Nian Menghan luckily survived, but was injured and was in a coma for more than a week.
As her uncle, Jinlinchi flew back from abroad to take care of her only niece.
After the car accident, Nian Hongda directly sent his remaining three sons to their deaths.
Therefore, some people speculated that the car accident of Nian Hongda’s eldest son was caused by his other three younger brothers.
As to whether it is true or not.
Only Nian Hongda himself knows what the truth is.
However, the discord in the Nian family is well known.
Therefore, Dong Shijun often used this to mock Nian Hongda.
"Is the person coming today the second oldest or the third oldest?"
Dong Shijun arrived early, so he didn't know who came from the Nian family.
Dong Botong said: "Neither, it's Nian Menghan."
"Oh?" Dong Shijun smiled, as if he had thought of something. "It's just as I suspected. By the way, how's the investigation going on with the thing I asked you to investigate? Who is this Zhen Shao Yuan?"
Speaking of this, Dong Botong immediately straightened his face.
"Dad, I can't find out any details about this Shao Yuan. All I can find are superficial things. I can't find anything truly useful."
"Can't find it?"
Dong Shijun couldn't help but look at Dong Botong in surprise, "Even you can't find it?"
"Yes." Dong Botong looked ashamed. "The funding for that Zhen Shao Yuan all comes from more than a dozen different companies abroad. Those companies are all well-known trust companies and financial companies abroad."
"Oh? You can't find any source of funds in the country?"
“Nothing.”
Dong Shijun smiled, "This Zhen Shao Yuan doesn't look simple. It seems that he is very likely a descendant of those old guys from abroad. Forget it, there is no need to investigate his affairs for the time being. Let's see what good things are in today's auction."
Zhen Shao Yuan, who had no idea that someone was investigating him, was currently in a private room, eating fruit, drinking juice, and chatting with two fans.
He didn't know that he was mistaken for the Golden Scale Pond.
I just thought that everything I saw about Han Mingxuan along the way can only be described in one word.
That's "expensive".
Yes, it is expensive.
Everything in Hanmingxuan exudes nobility and is expensive.
For example, the antique calligraphy and paintings you saw when you first came in.
For example, the chairs he sits on now are all priceless antiques.
For example, the fruits he ate at this time were all of the top quality and best quality.
Just the purple gold grapes that look so ordinary, I heard they cost 2,000 yuan per pound.
There are also snow pears that look snow-white and taste sweet and crispy.
They are all sold by the piece.
An 800 yuan Chinese coin.
The wine we drank cost over six figures.
Actually, I, Shao Yuan, didn’t know the price either. It was the fans in the live broadcast room who revealed it. He only found out after two female fans told them.
After all, I had never even seen or eaten these things before.
