Trapped for 10 years

Chapter 106 Antique Auction
The moment he saw the old man, Lu Jinyan knew that this man was not simple.

Although it is an existence that has been reincarnated for ten thousand years in the vortex of time, there are not many people who can make Lu Jinyan feel this way in the vortex of ten thousand years.

"Young man, how are you? I'm also a lover of literary and entertainment. Just now I saw that you have unique insights into this aspect, so I want to make friends with you and learn from it."

Although the old man looks extraordinary, when he speaks, he is very humble and approachable.

"Don't dare, I'm just talking nonsense, I can't talk about studying, we can communicate with each other. I'm going to talk to Lu Jinyan."

Lu Jinyan smiled faintly and bowed his hands in salute.

The little old man quickly returned the gift: "The old man's surname is Meng and his name is Wen Kun, so be polite."

The two sides reported their names, and they knew each other.

"Brother Lu must have come here today because of Qi Tianshi's famous painting?" Meng Wenkun asked.

"No, actually, this junior doesn't know anything about paintings. I just accidentally heard that there was an antique exhibition here and came to take a look." Lu Jinyan explained.

After the explanation, Lu Jinyan also became interested.

"Senior just said, Qi Tianshi's paintings? I wonder which of his paintings will be displayed in the Treasure Pavilion today?"

Qi Tianshi is a Qing Dynasty painter that Lu Jinyan likes very much. He is good at painting animals and flying insects.

And because of Qi Tianshi's eccentric temperament, he suddenly announced that he would close his pen when he was at his peak, so his few paintings are especially precious.

Especially the few paintings he made before he closed his pen, which have already been priced at hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars by the market.

Seeing that Lu Jinyan was interested, Meng Wenkun was also willing to say a few more words.

"It's the extremely famous pig-faced portrait." Meng Wenkun said with great energy, his eyes were shining as he spoke, and he obviously wanted to see this famous painting.

"Oh?! It turned out to be this one." Lu Jinyan became even more interested.

"It seems that brother Lu still has some insights into this painting? Why don't you let the old man tell me?" Meng Wenkun asked.

"Hehe, I can't talk about indirectness, I just heard that this pig-faced figure is one of Mr. Qi Baishi's paintings before he closed his pen. It was an exquisite painting to satirize the dignitaries at that time. After this painting was published, Then he brought misfortune to old Mr. Qi, and the old man was deeply imprisoned because of this, but fortunately his friends rescued him, so he survived."

Meng Wenkun listened and nodded frequently: "Not bad, not bad. It seems that the little brother not only has a deep understanding of Wenwan, but also knows some historical anecdotes in detail. It's amazing, it's really amazing."

"Senior Meng, I don't dare to be so. I made you laugh at me by playing tricks in front of you." Lu Jinyan was very humble in a rare way.

The two beauties standing by were stunned for a moment, and they also asked: "Jinyan, you really know everything. Where did you learn all this?"

"From the books, it seems that ugly people need to read more." Lu Jinyan joked.

Lu Jinyan said it easily, he has been trapped in the time vortex for 10 years, and reading is one of the best ways for him to pass the time.So the knowledge he has mastered is also honed out with time.

"Tch, let's just say that we are not ugly, we are handsome!" The two beauties smiled, and gave each other a supercilious look.

Meng Wenkun laughed loudly when he saw this: "Brother Lu is not only knowledgeable and talented, but also suave. Even participating in an antique exhibition, he is accompanied by beautiful women, so it is really a gift to others. If the old man is a few years younger, he must have a bright eye See if you can't do it."

Lu Jinyan also smiled: "The old man was joking, you are the one who is full of beauty, and the sword is not old yet."

The two were chatting and laughing when suddenly a middle-aged man dressed in simple clothes walked up to Meng Wenkun and whispered: "Mr. Meng, the auction is about to start. Please move to the VIP."

When Lu Jinyan heard the speech, he wondered, isn't this an antique exhibition? Why is there still an auction?
Meng Wenkun waved his hand lightly, motioning for the man to go down, and then asked with a smile: "Brother Lu, I wonder if you can come with me? There will be a private auction here in a while, and with you here, help me palm my eyes. I have something in my heart." Bottom."

"Thank you for not giving up, so go and have a look?"

"Let's go!" Meng Wenkun didn't expect Lu Jinyan to agree so happily, and was very happy.

Lu Jinyan is naturally straightforward, because he knows very well that really good things rarely appear on exhibitions.

And this kind of private auction is different, maybe you can come across some rare treasures.

Su Qing and Murong Ting were even more enthusiastic, and followed without thinking.

After a while, Meng Wenkun led the three of Lu Jinyan to a cubicle on the third floor.

There were two strong men holding hands at the door. As soon as Lu Jinyan met, he was stopped by the strong men.

"No one else is allowed to set foot here except the VIPs of Zhenbao Pavilion."

"Hehe, these three are friends of my Meng, I think your boss will give you some face, right?"

Seeing Meng Wenkun, the two bodyguards immediately shortened their bodies and looked respectful.

"It turns out that it's Mr. Meng. If you're rude, it's definitely not good to be someone else. But since you are friends with Mr. Meng, let alone three, you can get thirty."

"Ah."

Old Meng turned around with a smile: "Brother Lu, please."

"After you."

Mr. Meng was not polite either, he walked in leisurely with his hands behind his back.

Lu Jinyan and the three followed closely behind.

After entering the door, I realized that this is not just a simple compartment, there is something hidden inside.

The space of [-] to [-] square meters is decorated in a simple and elegant manner, with carved beams and painted buildings, jade carvings and gold inlays, which are very exquisite.

As soon as Lu Jinyan entered the door, he was attracted by a picture of eight steeds hanging on the wall.

His heart skipped a beat, because he wasn't quite sure what he was thinking, so he wanted to go up and take a closer look at the picture of the Eight Horses.

But at this moment, Murong Ting suddenly exclaimed from behind: "Ah, look, the old man at three o'clock turned out to be the founder of the Liu Group, Liu Yunnian. This old man was a big hit in Xicheng and even Shanghai 20 years ago. Character, he retired to the second line ten years ago and handed over the family business to his children. Unexpectedly, he is here today."

Liu Yunian?
After being told by Murong Ting, Lu Jinyan remembered.

The Liu Group he founded is now one of the four giant enterprises in Xicheng.The Liu family has become one of the first-line big families in Xicheng by virtue of their strong family heritage.

Although the Murong family and the Su family are all relatively powerful families in Xicheng now, they are still far behind the Liu family.

Unexpectedly, the founder of the Liu Group, the old seniors of the Liu family, would come here.

"what……"

This time it was Su Qing who exclaimed.

She looked at a middle-aged man in his 40s in the other direction in surprise, and said, "Isn't this Yu Chenghai? The president of Xicheng Longfa Head Office, I didn't expect him to be here."

Yu Chenghai?
After being reminded by Su Qing, Lu Jinyan finally remembered.

Longfa Bank, known as the No. [-] bank in Huaxia, has the strength to control half of Huaxia Financial Street.

As for the status of the president of Xicheng Longfa head office, it can be seen.

This is the figure at the top of the pyramid in Xicheng.

If these two people are here, then the status of other people who can sit with them will naturally not be too low.

So, who is this Meng Wenkun?

Lu Jinyan couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"There's a seat available, Brother Lu, let's go and sit there."

Meng Wenkun pulled Lu Jinyan and sat down at the direction of six o'clock.

Over the next few minutes, several more people came to the room.

The crowd seemed to be almost complete. At this time, a classic beauty in her early thirties, dressed in a cheongsam, walked out from the backstage.

"Everyone, it seems we can begin."
