This time when he came to England, Wen Ye also came with him. When Xia Shao came here before, he didn't expect to face someone from the Obikris family again, so he left him in the capital and asked him to look at the official beauty at the Huayuan Private Club. Since Wen Ye has been in the club, Xia Shao has become much more relaxed than before. In the past, she had to handle all the customers by herself, and sometimes she was too busy.
When he just opened his first club in Qingshi, Xia Shaoshang felt relaxed. But with the development of Huaxia Group, she has more and more things to do and less and less time. She has opened more and more clubs, and now she has opened them in first-tier cities across the country.
Xia Shao's original intention in setting up Huayuan Private Club was to have a place where people could answer questions about Feng Shui and fortune, and also to accumulate contacts for the Huaxia Group. But Xia Shaoshang was able to cope with the situation in one club, but when the club opened too many, she was unable to do anything else. Before Wen Ye came, whenever a customer needed to make an appointment, the club staff would record it and ask her to arrange the time. Sometimes she is not in that city, and the person asking for help has to fly over by himself, which is very inconvenient. But after Wen Ye arrived and someone helped share the burden, Xia Shao suddenly had a lightbulb in his mind!
Wouldn't it be great if there were Feng Shui masters in Huayuan private clubs everywhere, which would not only make her relaxed, but also facilitate the clients? But this idea requires the secondment of manpower from the Xuanmen Main Hall. There are currently a few Xuanmen disciples. Hong Kong can only be busy, so how can they have time to go to the mainland
Although this idea was temporarily difficult to implement, Xia Shao still made a preliminary plan. If you have few disciples, you can accept them. In the future, the Huayuan private club can become a good place for disciples to practice. It can be led by a master and several disciples can sit together in the club, just like sitting in the old Feng Shui hall in Hong Kong. Moreover, there are Feng Shui bureaus in the clubs, and the vitality of heaven and earth is abundant. When there are no customers, it is a good help for the disciples to clean up their cultivation.
In the future, new disciples will still learn the basics of kung fu in the old Feng Shui hall in Hong Kong. Once they have the ability to become masters, they will be brought to the mainland by their masters and sit in the Huayuan private club. This is really a good plan. Even though Xuanmen is not of such a scale now, after Wen Ye arrived in the capital, he gave Xia Shao such a plan and development direction.
It was summer vacation and Wen Ye didn't have to go to school, so Xia Shao asked him to come to England. This time should be a good learning opportunity for him. He can experience some Western witchcraft.
Wen Ye didn't say anything at the airport. He didn't come to see Xia Shao until he arrived at the hotel. But before the master and apprentice could say a few words, Yingzhao walked in from the door, "Miss Xia, can we talk?"
Yingzhao was the only one who came, and obviously she didn't want Xu Tianyin and her companions to know about her conversation.
Xia Shao did not refuse. She could see Yingzhao's thoughts on Xu Tianyin. Because of this, she was scrutinized and criticized a lot during this trip. Xia Shao knew that she was regarded as a love rival by Yingzhao. In Yingzhao's eyes, agents were excellent beings. She probably thought that she was better than herself in everything, so she didn't understand why Xu Tianyin liked her, so she scrutinized, picky, and... Compare.
Not to mention whether Yingzhao is really better than her, from a personal point of view, Xia Shao doesn't dislike Yingzhao at all. It is said that concealing emotions is a required course for agents, but Yingzhao's temperament is straightforward, and his likes and dislikes are all shown on his face. These days, although she treats her as a love rival and has provoked her, she does everything openly and does not use some methods that women often like to use behind the scenes.
This woman is a resolute person, which can be seen from her face. Yingzhao is a typical sword eyebrow. Very few girls have this kind of eyebrows. They look heroic, but they also indicate a strong character. Such people usually don't bother to do anything behind the scenes, and always say what they have to say. If Xia Shao encountered such a temperament on a daily basis, she would definitely like it. But it's a pity that the love rival is an enemy, so Xia Shao can't say she likes Yingzhao, but she can't say she hates him either.
When Yingzhao wanted to talk to her, Xia Shao knew without even thinking that it must be for the Xuanmen people.
Sure enough, when they arrived at the hotel's cafe, Yingzhao did not mince words and said straightforwardly: "Ms. Xia, I won't interfere with what your sect wants to do when they come to England, but I hope you will restrain them and not get involved in the mural. Come on. You know, this is our mission, and I don't think they can help. It's good to be patriotic, but it's bad to cause trouble."
After hearing this, Xia Shao narrowed her eyes and said coldly: "Miss Yingzhao, it is good to pay attention to the mission, but it is not good to despise others casually."
Yingzhao's face darkened, and just as he was about to speak, the waiter brought two cups of coffee. Yingzhao had no choice but to endure it, waiting for the waiter to go away before speaking. Unexpectedly, just as the waiter turned around, Xia Shao's eyes fell on the coffee, and he raised his hand and swept it lightly!
The two cups of coffee on the table seemed to have been swept by a strong wind, sticking to the smooth tabletop and sliding to the right. Nine Stars Fantasy God Tribulation! There were just two pops on the ground, the cup suddenly shattered, and the fragrant coffee splashed all over the floor!
The waiter was startled and turned around quickly, only to find that the two cups of coffee that he had placed on the left side of the table before he turned around had somehow broken to the ground on the right side. This made the waiter stunned for a long time, and then he remembered to ask: "I'm sorry, ladies. Is the coffee not to your liking?"
Xia Shao raised her eyes and smiled: "No, we didn't hold it properly and accidentally broke it. I'm really sorry for wasting two cups of such fragrant coffee, and we will compensate."
Not sure? The waiter's eyes were a little straight, but he still didn't understand why two cups of coffee shattered so far away just as he turned around. But he didn't dare to ask any more questions and hurriedly went to arrange cleaning.
After the waiter left, Yingzhao was still staring at Xia Shao, unable to hide the turmoil in his eyes! She saw clearly just now that Xia Shao didn't touch the two cups at all. She flicked her hand in the air and the two cups were wiped out!
What kind of skill is this
"Miss Yingzhao, you need to know that there are people out there. For people with my skills, there are three people in my division. Don't say they won't interfere in this mission. If they do, there will be absolutely no chance for you to take action. , it will be difficult to say who caused trouble for whom." Xia Shao said slowly and authentically, Yingzhao's face instantly turned red and his eyes went straight!
She has never been so embarrassed! She could comfort herself that Xia Shao started in the antique industry and was more professional and practiced than her. But she didn't expect that as an agent, she was shocked by Xia Shao's skills!
Over the years, she has completed countless tasks. For the first time, she felt unconfident when facing someone...
After Xia Shao said this, she turned around and left.
…
The next day, when Yingzhao saw Xia Shao, her expression was still a little unnatural, but she still had to follow Xia Shao today. Because, the World Auction Summit has begun!
As Xia Shao's temporary assistant, Yingzhao has to perform a full set of acting roles, so of course he has to follow her. But there is no need for her to do anything today, because the real employees of Huaxia Group have arrived!
The World Auction Summit, organized by Lattice Group, invites leaders in the auction industry from various countries to discuss the future development of the industry. Although this is the first session, the invited companies have all reached industry-leading levels. As the only domestic company invited, Huaxia Group’s entourage all glowed and felt extremely honored!
Sun Changde, the president of Huaxia Auction Company, and Chen Manguan, the general manager of Fu Ruixiang, naturally followed, as well as Liu Banwang, the president of Huaxia Entertainment Media. The World Auction Summit attracts media from all over the world, and domestic media is no exception.
It is worth mentioning that Huale.com won the exclusive domestic online broadcast rights for this auction summit, and came to the UK with reporters from Huale Weekly and other magazines under China Entertainment Media.
Early in the morning, the red carpet was rolled out outside the venue, and reporters had shooting areas inside the venue. However, the media arrived outside the venue early and waited outside the cordon.
At eight o'clock, luxury cars began to pull up outside the venue. The entrepreneurs who got out of the cars were all familiar faces from the world's business magazines. Every time someone got out, the flashlights came like rain, dazzling people's eyes. Can't even open it.
There were more than fifty entrepreneurs invited to attend this time. Halfway through the crowd, an extended Bentley drove slowly in, and an Oriental woman got out of the car.
The woman was dressed in white business attire, with her hair slightly curled up. The formal attire could not hide her leisurely and elegant charm, and her beautiful appearance, which looked like she was only seventeen or eighteen years old.
At this age, he is definitely the youngest among the entrepreneurs present today! He is at least twenty or thirty years younger than those who were present just now!
The media reporters present, not to mention Huale.com, Huaxia Entertainment Media and domestic media, even the peripheral media recognized the person at a glance and rejuvenated him!
An oriental woman with such a young face, there will not be another person in the world business circle who can reach such a height!
"Director Xia!"
"Miss Xia! Look here!"
The reporters called Xia Shao's name. Although they knew it was not suitable for interviews, they still hoped to get a close-up shot.
Xia Shao turned around and smiled at the reporters outside the cordon, then turned around and entered the venue with Sun Changde, Chen Manguan and other Huaxia Group employees who came out of the car.
Yingzhao followed behind, looking at this scene with complicated eyes. In this field, the woman in front is a legend and a strong one, but the problem is that in other fields, she is also a strong one! Yingzhao couldn't figure it out at first. What magical experience did the girl in front of her walk into the venue surrounded by a group of business elites? Why does she always feel that she is mysterious
At this time, Xia Shao had already entered the venue. The atmosphere in the venue was warm, and it was a grand event for these internationally renowned entrepreneurs to gather together. It's rare to get together, why not talk
But when Xia Shao came in, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Like the media reporters outside, the entrepreneurs in the venue recognized Xia Shao at a glance—compared to the rumors in magazines and in the industry, this girl looked incredibly young in person!
She is younger than the children of many people present! And she can actually stand here, standing on the same position as them!
At this time, a burst of laughter came: "Ms. Xia, you have not been in London these two days. I wanted to invite you to my manor as a guest for a few days without the chance, haha."
After hearing this, everyone turned their heads and saw Old Burton walking out of the crowd. This made everyone even more shocked!
Who is Old Burton? The head of Ladis Group! Ladis is the originator of the auction industry and the organizer of this World Auction Summit! An industry boss that everyone present must be in awe of!
Old Burton was the first to arrive at the venue. The entrepreneurs who came were eager to show their faces in front of him and exchanged a few words. However, they did not expect that this Oriental girl had just arrived at the venue and before she opened her mouth, Old Burton showed her kindness first.
The people present were all human beings. Old Burton even said that he wanted to invite Xia Shao to the Ladis family's manor as a guest. Isn't this a sign of goodwill
hiss! The business legend of the Huaxia Group. Everyone present knows that Xia Shao is indeed the number one among the younger generation. It is indeed possible that the old Burton will be impressed by her, but with the status of the Ladis Group, it is not possible
What exactly is going on
The entrepreneurs present had glaring eyes, but Old Burton smiled. He was indeed showing good intentions. He had already checked Xia Shao's itinerary and entourage during the past few days in the UK. Although they had visited the British Museum to see the mural, it was reasonable. Although I heard that Xia Shao was very skilled, given her status, she often hired bodyguards for the sake of face. There were many of them in shopping malls, so it was not surprising. After several days of investigation, nothing was found to be wrong with Xia Shao, and her suspicions were basically eliminated. After Old Burton was relieved, he remembered her identity as a Feng Shui master, and of course she wanted to show her kindness! Moreover, he got news that Tang Zongbo had come to England! Old Burton still has lingering fears about what Tang Zongbo did on Wall Street back then. He has never had the chance to get close to this powerful figure. Isn't this an opportunity
Because of Old Burton's goodwill, many entrepreneurs were very enthusiastic about Xia Shao even though they didn't know the reason. Before the meeting started, Xia Shao was always surrounded by people, and she became the busiest person in the meeting.
The World Auction Summit lasts for ten days. The industry conference is held for three days, followed by the auction held by Ladis Group, and then there are exhibitions of antiques from various countries, cocktail parties and other industry exchange meetings. The first day's meeting started in the afternoon after lunch.
At the beginning of the afternoon meeting, the first thing that attracted attention was the Chinese market!
Although the auction industry originated in the UK, it has suffered great setbacks in the Chinese market. At that time, due to domestic policy issues, the auction industry suffered boycotts, which resulted in many foreign companies being unable to sustain themselves and withdrawing from the market one after another. But over the years, with changes in policies, China's economic development has entered a period of rapid development, and it was during this period that Huaxia Group emerged. Although this has something to do with the right time and place, accurately seeing the gaps in the auction market is also the key to success or failure!
Huaxia Group quickly occupied a large share of the domestic market in five years and became a veritable leading company. However, in terms of the entire huge Chinese market, Huaxia Group and some small local auction companies alone cannot meet this huge demand. demand.
The Chinese market is definitely a big cake!
Compared with some people who are eyeing the vast domestic space, Xia Shao also benefited a lot from the three-day World Auction Summit industry conference. She understands the current situation and development of many foreign markets, as well as the situation of foreign collection investment markets. She knows that the domestic market will inevitably be targeted, but she is not afraid, but welcomes it! This is the best opportunity to test the competitiveness of Huaxia Group! If Huaxia Group can secure its position in the country, she can enter foreign markets!
Xia Shao's schedule was extremely full for the three-day industry conference. In addition to attending the conference, she also took the time to accept joint interviews with Huale.com, Hong Kong media and mainland media.
Xia Shao delivered a speech on Huaxia Group’s attendance at the summit on behalf of the domestic industry and answered many questions. Many of the questions were about the upcoming auction.
The British side has not responded to the national treasure mural, and the mural will eventually be auctioned. There was a lot of outrage in the country about this. When the media interviewed Xia Shao, they inevitably asked about Huaxia Group’s views on this and what antiques Huaxia Group would display at the auction.
Xia Shao did not give a direct answer to these two questions. She smiled mysteriously and said, "There are many things in the world, and no one can predict the outcome until the last moment. Perhaps, there will be surprises waiting for us."
What does this mean
No one could guess clearly, so everyone focused their attention on the auction held by Ladis Group the next day.
And at this time, the Obikris family.
Andri walked into the study worriedly, "Adam, have you heard? Xuanmen has come to England! It's been two days! The elders will wait for your solution."
"Don't worry, father, there will be a way." Adam raised his head with a smile, closed the book in front of him, and stood up from behind the desk.
Andre frowned when he saw his leisurely look. Is there any way? Xuanmen came to England two days ago. He has been leisurely reading in the study. No movement was seen from him. Where is the solution
"Adam, I know you have tried your best. If there is really no other way, don't hold on, my father will not blame you." Andri sighed, looking at his son with sad and distressed eyes. Adam is so good. The family has relied on him all these years. This crisis is too serious. One thing after another, he has tried his best. Probably even he couldn't help it, he just didn't want his family to worry too much.
Andre walked over and slapped his son on the shoulder hard, "You are the pride of the family. No matter what happens, we are proud of you. Let me think about the solution to this matter. If I hadn't dared to refuse the count back then, Now the family will not encounter so many things. There is a saying that is right, it is all karma... I can't let you bear all this, don't worry! Leave it to me to think of a solution! "
There was determination in Andre's eyes, which made Adam smile, "Father, I said, there will be a way, just wait."
"Wait? Son, the solution will not come to you by itself!" Andri said anxiously.
However, as soon as he said this, the housekeeper knocked on the study door and said, "Master, there is a guest from the East who wants to see you. He is already waiting outside the door."
Andri was stunned. Adam opened the screen in the study and saw a man in a sweatshirt standing at the door of the ancient manor in the dark sky. The hat covered most of the man's face, but looking at the outline of his chin, he seemed to be an Oriental man.
"Didn't you come to your door by yourself?" Adam smiled meaningfully and said to the housekeeper, "Please."
