Chapter 214
Chapter 214. Greetings
Looking at the five copper coins in Ren Ping's palm, everyone suddenly came to their senses.

This was deliberately set up by the author of the question. According to expectations, if Ren Ping fails to see it, it is a tool used to ridicule and slap the face, but now it is being slapped in the face.

Correspondingly, Cui Simin is not aware of this trap, so obviously he is not the real author of the question.

"Today's plaque is called a congratulatory gift. It is actually a provocation. It not only contains difficulties, but also the disdain of the elders towards the younger ones, implying that I am not qualified. The number of nineteen after twenty and one retreat is proof."

"I think no matter how arrogant Mr. Cui is, he doesn't want to claim to be my elder, but no matter what, I still accept the things. Please go back, everyone,"

Flicking five fake copper coins into a nearby trash can, Ren Ping pointed to the pile of small five emperor coins in the frame of the plaque, signaling Ye Shiyun to accept them. How can these 95 real coins be worth hundreds of thousands:

"Oh, by the way, when I was in the Nanling Spring and Autumn League assessment that day, I spent half a day on the four questions, which can be considered as my best effort. Now this question only lasts for a quarter of an hour."

"It seems that even though we are from the Spring and Autumn Alliance, the level of the questions is quite different."

These words were obviously to make amends for the Nanling Spring and Autumn League's humiliation just now, Rong Qiancheng and the other nine members all felt relieved after hearing this, and they all nodded to him to show their gratitude.

The other party was speechless.

Cui Simin pondered for a moment, glared at Ren Ping bitterly, and then whispered a few instructions to one of the four people behind him. After hearing this, the person immediately turned around and returned to the distant vehicle, as if to ask for instructions.

Hu Yitang waited impatiently and tapped his crutch:
"What is the name of the Spring and Autumn League of your three provinces? Is it such a big air? Zhuang Weinian and the others, why don't they show up!"

"Go back to Mr. Hu, Grandpa Zhuang and Grandpa Fan didn't come today, but a few uncles under the door. I'll ask someone to go back and ask them what they mean."

"What is there to ask for advice? Could it be that you are planning how to give Mr. Ren a question?"

Xin Ran did not hide the sarcasm in his voice, dragging out the word "problem" for a long time.

Cui Simin was not angry and bowed again:
"Director Xin, please forgive me. The elders of the Spring and Autumn League of the three provinces have important things to do this time. Naturally, they should be more cautious. It is helpless for Director Xin to wait here for a while. I think even if Director Yang of your provincial museum is here For the sake of Grandpa Zhuang and the others, I won't mind."

"You mean that I'm not qualified?" Xin Ran's expression turned cold.

"Don't dare, my nephew means please look at the thin noodles of my Three Provinces Spring and Autumn League, and wait a little longer. Of course, if you don't want to wait, we can't force it, so we can leave as much as we want."

Cui Simin said this politely, but in fact everyone snorted coldly after hearing this, thinking that the three southeastern provinces are not only geographically adjacent to each other, but also have the same roots in politics, culture, business and other fields.

Because of this, in the process of communicating with neighboring provinces, they are often defiant.

For example, at this moment, no matter how senior Hu Yitang is, he is just an individual. Tian Minru has the Tahoe Group behind him, but they also have a very good friendship with the Jingyuan Group in the three provinces, so don't be too afraid.

As for Rong Qiancheng and Nanling Chunqiu League, etc., they didn't pay much attention to them at all.

The so-called bullying people, from the very beginning of today, they put on a high-ranking posture, and came to Ren's Wood Industry to bully the owner when the business was opened. To them, it was just a common thing.

"These bastards are too arrogant..."

At this time, everyone was cursing in their hearts, but it was a fact that the three provinces were powerful, so they had to endure it for now.

After about half a quarter of an hour, there was finally movement. I saw a person walking slowly beside the vehicle in the distance, but it was not the previous one, but another middle-aged man.

Seeing that it was him, Cui Simin immediately turned around and saluted respectfully, and asked "Second Uncle", who seemed to be an elder in the family or something.

The man didn't say anything, walked straight past him, first glanced at Hu Yitang and the others to show his respect, and then stood still in front of Ren Ping:

"You are Mr. Ren Pingren?"

"That's right, it's me." Ren Ping looked him up and down, only to feel that he was a little different compared to his peers in the industry, but he couldn't tell where the difference was.

The man smiled: "It really is a young hero, a set of Mingquan Xiaotianlong, and two Twelve Flower God Cups, all of which are rare treasures that are not born in the world. No wonder the Nanling industry has been talking about you recently."

"Sir, I'm over-reputed. May I ask what you can teach me?"

"I don't dare. This is a greeting card from the Spring and Autumn League of our three provinces to Mr. Ren. Please accept it."

As he spoke, he took out three lacquered red envelopes from his pocket and handed them over.

Ren Ping took it and opened it one by one, and saw that there were indeed three greeting cards, signed by Zhuang Weinian, Fan Jingxian, and Cui Hao.

The above words are pretty much the same, the general idea is that they have heard Ren Ping's name for a long time, and want to meet up at an opportunity to learn from each other, and so on.

He didn't feel anything at all, but in the eyes of everyone around him, they were all surprised.

Zhuang Weinian, Fan Jingxian, and Cui Hao, what are the identities of these three people? Calculated, they are all leading figures in their respective provinces, and their status is comparable to Hu Yitang in Jiangning Province.

But now we actually made an appointment to send a greeting note to a junior together.

Although this invitation made it clear that he had bad intentions, and it was better to say it was a letter of defiance, but the standard of such an effort to mobilize a large number of people was a bit too high.

For a moment, everyone was wondering how Ren Ping had offended the Spring and Autumn League of the three provinces. They thought that the other party's visit this time was aimed at Rong Qiancheng and the Nanling Spring and Autumn League, but now it seems that it is obviously not the case.

"Are you from the Cui family? Cui Hao really didn't come?"

Hu Yitang couldn't help but spoke again.

The middle-aged man nodded: "I won't be here today, but I will be here a few days later."

Hu Yitang was worried about Ren Ping'an and wanted to ask them what they wanted to do. If they really had bad intentions, he might as well step in and take over first.

But after thinking about it, the other party might not be able to say anything, and apart from the plaque, he has not shown any malicious intentions so far, so if he speaks so rashly, it will make people laugh, so he forcibly held back.

The rest of the people were thinking the same thing, and in the end they all looked at Ren Ping to see how he would respond. Should he accept the invitation or not?
"Thank you for your kindness, but it seems that there is no agreed time?"

"It doesn't matter. We just want to learn from each other with Mr. Ren. At any time, as long as it is convenient for both parties, we will come to visit."

"Okay then, I'll take this post."

Ren Ping flipped through the three posts, and put them in his pocket casually, as if he didn't think much about them.

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and cupped his hands: "So, I will go back and return to my life, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Soon, the group of people left in the car again. Except for the few young people headed by Cui Simin who glared at Ren Ping thoughtfully, the others behaved as usual, as if they were really here to deliver a post.

Afterwards, the opening ceremony went on as usual. After the ribbon cutting, Mayor Zhang left beforehand. Before leaving, he patted Ren Ping on the shoulder and smiled: "Ren Ping, don't forget what you promised me."

Ren Ping knew that he was referring to the competition in the capital, which not only related to the honor of Nanling, but also involved a bet with the National Museum.

If he wins in the end, the two Flower God Cups can be recovered and stay in Nanling forever, which can be considered a great contribution to the local cultural industry.

However, the Flower God Cup is still on tour across the country, and the Capital Competition will not be held until the end of the year. Mayor Zhang is too impatient.

At that moment, he had no choice but to agree, saying that he would do his best. After the ceremony was over, and everyone was invited to eat at the opening banquet, Ren Ping winked at Rong Qiancheng and said with a smile:
"Mr. Rong, I haven't thanked you for what happened last time. I happened to have an extra bottle of good wine here, so don't miss it."

Rong Qiancheng understood and burst out laughing.

Everyone also guessed that the two of them were going to discuss how to deal with the Spring and Autumn Alliance of the three provinces. They were all human beings, and no one even looked at them, so they all stood up and left.

Even Ye Shiyun was extraordinarily reasonable and shrugged at him:

"Going out of business again? Go, I will take care of the rest."

Ren Ping smiled, turned and went upstairs.
