When Xia Shao met Li Boyuan, there was an official from the Dongcheng City Government accompanying Li Boyuan. Xia Shao had some impression that this official was the deputy mayor Liu Jingquan. shu mark 玷癞癹
Liu Jingquan is in charge of Dongshi's economy. The reason why Dongshi's economy developed in his previous life has a lot to do with this practical deputy mayor. He did indeed do a lot of practical things, but because of the factional relationship in the officialdom, he was defeated by his political opponents Shuanggui in the year of Dongshi's election. At the time of this incident, Xia Shao's father, Xia Zhiyuan, was still at home and sighed for a while, saying that the officialdom was dark. Mayor Liu had made political achievements, but in the end he was persecuted by others and made wedding clothes for others. Therefore, Xia Shao had some impressions of this person.
She didn't expect to see the deputy mayor. Xia Shao couldn't help but take a closer look at Liu Jingquan and found that his atrium was already dark. Counting the time, he was indeed not far away. About a year from now.
While Xia Shao was thinking, Liu Jingquan smiled and asked, "Mr. Li, who is this?"
"Come on, Mayor Liu, let me introduce you. This is the niece I met after coming to Dongshi, Xia Shao."
Niece
Liu Jingquan was shocked. He had never heard that Mr. Li had an old friend in Dongshi. Where did his niece come from? Since he is an old friend of Mr. Li, he must have a good family background, but he does not remember that there is a family named Xia in the upper class society of Dongshi.
Doubts were doubts. Liu Jingquan was a veteran in politics after all, but he had a friendly smile on his face. He immediately shook hands and said, "Miss Xia, I'm glad to meet you, haha."
"Hello, Mayor Liu." Xia Shao smiled and extended her hand, gracefully.
Liu Jingquan smiled and nodded. Although he had doubts in his heart, he did not ask about Xia Shao's family background. Instead, he looked at Chen Manguan behind Xia Shao and asked with a smile: "Isn't this Boss Chen? Has business improved recently?"
Chen Manguan didn't expect Liu Jingquan to say hello to him. After all, after his business failed, both government officials and former business partners avoided him. In the past, he could still eat at the same table with these mayors and deputy mayors. , shaking hands and joking, now when people see you they just pretend they haven’t seen you.
Before these things happened, Chen Manguan would naturally feel sad and angry, but now he sees it as human nature. If it were him before, he would do the same thing. However, he really didn't expect that Vice Mayor Liu would "recognize" him today, and it must be thanks to Xia Shao. Because he was with her and she was familiar with Li Boyuan.
"It's still the same. Thank you Mayor Liu for your concern." Chen Manguan smiled and shook hands with Liu Jingquan.
Liu Jingquan said with a smile: "If you have any difficulties, you can go to the government! Boss Chen's company also contributed to the development of our Dongshi in the past. Now it is a bit difficult. The government can help."
Anyone who is not a fool can understand that this is for Li Boyuan, and in the final analysis, it is still a matter of selling it to him to save face.
Li Boyuan then changed hands and sold the favor to Xia Shao, "I heard that Boss Chen wants to reopen a store on Antique Street. Is it true?"
Chen Manguan glanced at Xia Shao and said, "Haha, there is such a thing. My friend contributes money and I contribute. I am just a worker for others, but the specific matter has not been discussed yet." He was telling the truth. Xia Shao said that this matter would have to wait. We'll discuss it after the auction, and since she still has to go to school, she won't be able to do everything in the store herself. In the end, he may still need to be in the store to watch over her every day.
"This is a good thing! Take your time. Based on Boss Chen's experience, you can make a comeback soon. If you have any difficulties, you can come to the government to solve them." Liu Jingquan said with a smile, which can be regarded as a promise.
While Xia Shao was listening to this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly. She had heard that Vice Mayor Liu was a hard-working person, and she thought he would be a tough guy, but she didn't expect that he still had the "affability" that he should have. It's no wonder that he has achieved a lot of political achievements.
The four people here were chatting happily. This scene fell into the eyes of Wu Yuhe who was following not far away, but he was full of shock.
"H-when did he become friends with Chairman Li?"
The woman next to her covered her mouth and exclaimed, "You said that Assistant Yang is the assistant to the chairman of Jiahui Group? How come the assistant to the chairman is accompanying that little girl?! Who is she?"
Wu Yuhe's eyes were straight and he was a little confused. How does he know? Is that girl really not the female companion brought by Chen Manguan
The woman pinched him, "Didn't you say that you have some friendship with Mayor Liu, and you want to take advantage of this auction to ask him to introduce you to Chairman Li? You should go over!"
Wu Yuhe was pinched in pain, and the bruise on the corner of his mouth was affected by the grin. He immediately threw the woman away irritably, pointed at the swollen corner of his mouth and cursed, "I really want to go! I'm already disfigured." , can I go there! Damn it! I didn’t look at the almanac when I went out, it’s bad luck!”
How could he have fallen just now? His legs were usually fine, but why were they suddenly so cold just now? This is so evil!
Wu Yuhe had troubles to express and was very angry. From time to time, he had to endure the greetings from his business partners who looked concerned but were actually joking. Not to mention how angry he was in his heart.
When the auction was about to begin, all the celebrities who came to participate walked into the auction hall and took their seats. Li Boyuan's seat was naturally the one with the best view. Liu Jingquan and Yang Qi accompanied him on the left, and Xia Shao and Chen Manguan sat on the right.
Although this auction is highly valued by the city, it is not an investment conference after all, and there is no official tone such as a leader's speech. The host came on stage to say a few words, the auctioneer came on stage, and the auction began.
The first auction item is a Jun porcelain narcissus basin from the Northern Song Dynasty, with a starting price of 200,000.
"Five million." Li Boyuan was the first to bid.
Xia Shao looked at him and saw that the old man's eyes were really bright. He seemed to like this piece of porcelain very much and looked like he was determined to get it. This auction will put this item first, and it may not mean that Li Boyuan will take the lead. It seems to make him happy.
But in Xia Shao's heart, she naturally didn't want him to win the auction.
In the hall, everyone saw Li Boyuan calling out the price, as if to heat up the atmosphere, they all followed the price, and soon it was 1.5 million.
"One million six hundred thousand!"
"One million and eight hundred thousand!"
"Two million!" Li Boyuan followed up.
Xia Shao frowned slightly and heard someone calling two million and two million, and Li Boyuan wanted to follow suit. Xia Shao then said, "Uncle Li, you'd better put this item away."
The words were tactful, but the meaning was obvious. She was trying to persuade Li Boyuan to give up filming.
Liu Jingquan, Chen Manguan and Yang Qi were all stunned. Liu Jingquan frowned slightly, why is this girl so ignorant of the rules? This Junci was prepared by the city for Li Boyuan, and the city put a lot of effort into his preferences.
Chen Manguan was also well versed in these matters and couldn't help but worry about Xia Shao. She must not leave a bad impression in front of Mayor Liu. This would not be good for her future development in Dongshi.
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows. In his opinion, Xia Shao didn't seem to be such an ignorant person. Even though she was young, he just felt this way strangely.
The three of them had their own thoughts, but Li Boyuan unexpectedly did not bid any more, but asked: "Does my niece have any advice?"
Seeking advice? Liu Jingquan was stunned. Wasn't this too polite? Who is this girl
Xia Shao smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Li, this object comes from the earth. Ordinary people can easily get sick if they carry it with them. You have just recovered from a serious illness, so it is even more inappropriate."
Taking into account Liu Jingquan's presence, Xia Shao's words were very cryptic and did not bring out the evil spirits or luck. After all, this was not very accepted in China, so she still had to take care of her image in front of the city leaders and be careful not to give off the impression of a charlatan.
But Liu Jingquan lived for more than forty years, how could he not understand the meaning of these words? This time I couldn't help but look at Xia Shao strangely. This girl looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, right? Why do you talk like a magician? Is this what students who have received modern scientific education should say
Chen Manguan was stunned for a moment. Although he still didn't know how Xia Shao concluded that the object came from the earth, he had seen her ability before. If she said she was suffering from illness, then she couldn't be wrong. Got it! No wonder she frowned in front of the display cabinet. Was it because of this
Yang Qi was also stunned. He was not a native of Hong Kong and did not believe this at first. But after he came to work in Hong Kong, he saw that everyone from political and business celebrities to ordinary people were convinced of the metaphysics and Yili. The greatness of the local Feng Shui masters is not something others have mentioned. The number one master in the Feng Shui field in Hong Kong is an extremely powerful figure and indeed has real talent and knowledge. He slowly changed his mind about this, but he never expected that this girl with an elegant and gentle temperament was actually a metaphysician
Li Boyuan even woke up and said: "Are you saying that this object has evil spirits?"
Liu Jingquan almost choked on his saliva after hearing this. Why did this old man really believe it? But then he figured it out. Hong Kong people do believe in these things. Besides, Li Boyuan is already sixty years old. Many people of the older generation, even in the mainland, still believe in these things. But how old is this girl? Li Boyuan actually believed her words
But how did Liu Jingquan know that Li Boyuan not only believed, but was convinced. When he asked this question, Xia Shao just smiled slightly, neither nodding nor shaking his head, but Li Boyuan really stopped bidding.
This gave Liu Jingquan a bad impression of Xia Shao, but he didn't say anything on the spot. After all, the relationship between Li Boyuan and Xia Shao seemed unusual, and he couldn't be stupid enough to reprimand her in front of Mr. Li. Although this Jun porcelain was prepared intentionally by the city, it was not the only porcelain item in the entire auction. As long as Li Boyuan took a few pieces and was happy with the process, the TV station's report would be better, and the city would not think It's just that I can't accompany you well, that's fine.
By this time, the price had been called 3.5 million, and the person calling the price was actually Wu Yuhe.
Wu Yuhe was confused at this time. Everyone present at the auction intended to give up the Junci to Li Boyuan. The bidding was just to heat up the atmosphere, but who would have thought that he would suddenly stop bidding
Wu Yuhe felt sweat beading on his forehead. He looked eagerly at Li Boyuan's seat, wondering if the price was too high and Chairman Li was unhappy? Shouldn't it? With the financial resources of the Hong Kong Jiahui Group, let alone three to five million, even three to five billion should be looked down upon.
So what happened
Just when Wu Yuhe was thinking about it and couldn't figure it out, he heard a thud from above and the auctioneer dropped his hammer.
make a deal!
Everyone looked sideways. Wu Yuhe became the focus of the auction hall, but he looked like he was crying.
Xia Shao smiled meaningfully, "Oh, I was actually photographed by him. This is really retribution."
At this time, the second lot was unveiled, a pink-green glaze amphora from Ge Kiln in the Song Dynasty.
Liu Jingquan couldn't help but look at Xia Shao, hoping that she wouldn't do anything wrong this time. Xia Shao did not speak this time. Li Boyuan was naturally well versed in some principles in official circles and shopping malls. He then frequently raised high prices and took several pictures in a row. The atmosphere of the auction was once pushed to a climax.
Liu Jingquan finally let go of his hanging heart, and Xia Shao's eyes were fixed at this moment, because the next auction item was the purple clay pot she entrusted Li Boyuan to help deliver.
