Chapter 51 Invitation from the Koizumi Association

Chapter 51. Invitation from the Ancient Spring Association

Nanling Ancient Spring Association.

Full name: Nanling Ancient Spring Research and Appraisal Association, also known as "Spring Friends Association".

Guquan, that is, ancient coins.

Quanyou is naturally a person who likes to collect ancient coins.

There are quite a lot of ancient spring enthusiasts in China, so there are also various non-governmental organizations. Ren Ping knows this.

But this Nanling Ancient Spring Association, after thinking about it for a long time, seems to have never dealt with it.

Could it be that it was sent by mistake?

Looking up, Ren Ping, right?

Opening the envelope again, it turned out that it was an invitation letter, inviting him to attend the Guquan Forum in a place called "Linhai Tingquan" in the west of Nanling City two days later.

Oh, it's still a high-end club?

When did this kind of non-governmental organization become so rich?
Could it be that ancient coins are really used as money?
Ren Ping laughed teasingly in his heart.

After thinking about it, I immediately thought of the box of Mingquan Xiaotianlong.

Rumors about this set of ancient coins had been circulated in Nanling for a long time before, no wonder the Ancient Spring Association noticed itself.

It would be strange if there was no response.

However, he has no time to perfunctory with this group of people now.

A month will pass in a blink of an eye, and the birthday banquet of Mr. Tian Bingtai from Taihe Tianjia is about to come. According to Wu Yousheng, Tian Minru has returned from the capital, and the appraisal must have been completed.

This birthday banquet is very important to Ren's wood industry, and there must be no mistakes.

In addition to many other preparations, it is still important to get down to business.

"When was this delivered?"

"This afternoon, just arrived."

"Please throw it away for me."

"??"

Throwing the envelope to the female nurse casually, Ren Ping changed into his own clothes and left the ward.

The results of the in-depth examination have come out, everything is normal, and even practicing the Songhe Soft Forming Fist for the past few days has achieved a little success, reaching the first stage [movement and stillness].

After being paralyzed in the hospital for so many days, I almost fell in love with this sense of leisure that is indifferent to the world.

Unfortunately, now is the time to leave.

He just got the message:
Ye Shiyun, this sister Yun who had been away for more than half a month, finally came back...

……

Two days later, when Ren Ping was busy preparing to welcome Ye Shiyun and the craftsmen she brought back.

A suburban scenic spot in the west of Nanling City, surrounded by green forests and surging with clear springs.

In the well-known high-end club in Nanling - "Linhai Tingquan", a non-governmental organization discussion and exchange activity was held as scheduled.

The lobby of the clubhouse adopts an all-wooden structure, with a wide view and an antique flavor, highlighting the ancient atmosphere everywhere.

The people who come and go are also very extraordinary. Judging from their attire, they are either scholars, collectors, or wealthy merchants.

During the discussion, I looked up from time to time to see the text screen slowly scrolling in the center of the hall:

Nanling Ancient Spring Research and Appraisal Association Annual Exchange Ceremony!

The annual grand ceremony is very grand.

It's just that the organizer, many members of the Nanling Ancient Spring Association, seemed a little absent-minded.

Especially the two standing at the entrance of the hall, staring into the distance without saying a word, as if they were waiting for some important guest.

These two people, all the participants knew each other.

On the left, there is an old man in his early fifties with a somewhat haughty expression. His name is Qiu Ming. He is the vice president of the Ancient Spring Association and an expert in the study of ancient coins in the Municipal Museum.

On the right, the taller and older-looking one is the president of the association, Wang Youlong!

This President Wang is not only tall and straight, but also looks very mighty.

With hands behind their backs, standing at the entrance of the hall, there is a posture of giving it up, like a majestic door god, which is daunting.

It's just that at this time, besides the usual majesty that seemed to be born with him, there are many other emotions on his face.

Irritability, impatience, and anger...

"Why hasn't it arrived yet? Has the letter been delivered yet?"

With the last trace of patience, Wang Youlong looked at his watch and frowned.

Qiu Ming on the side was shocked. Although he thought he was a good person and his name was well-known in the Nanling ancient spring circle, every time he faced President Wang and was overwhelmed by his powerful and majestic aura, he couldn't help feeling a little nervous. fear.

Hearing this, he nodded quickly:
"It's delivered. I sent someone there myself."

"What's going on? Have you been to Renzhai, the Ren family?"

"Go, no one, that kid has been in the hospital for the past few days, I passed Mr. Liu—"

"Mr. Liu? What Mr. Liu?"

Wang Youlong was taken aback.

"Nothing, I mean I found out through a friend."

Qiu Ming changed his mouth hastily, sweating slightly on his forehead.

No one in the association knew about the private friendship between him and Liu Shitang, and they dared not tell anyone, especially Wang Youlong.

After a pause, he quickly changed the subject:

"I think that kid is intentional, and he doesn't take our association seriously at all!"

"how do you know?"

"President, think about it carefully. Our Nanling Ancient Spring Association was not established in a year or two. It has been ten years now. Who in the industry doesn't know?"

"But that kid did not know where to come up with a set of ancient coins. It's hard to tell if it's true or not. He didn't contact you at the first time, and sent it to the capital for appraisal. Isn't it clear that he didn't take you seriously? "

Wang Youlong snorted coldly when he heard the words:
"I heard that Ren Ping didn't go there by himself, but first handed it over to Mr. Tian of Taihe Group, and then sent it to the capital."

"That's more important!"

Qiu Ming then added fuel to the fire:

"Who do you want Mr. Tian to send to the capital for appraisal? Isn't it the Ancient Spring Association over there? The things clearly came from our Nanling. our faces?"

"At that time, if there is a message first, tsk tsk... Now it's good, even our invitation will be ignored."

"I don't know how to lift!"

With a bang, a wooden teacup was slammed onto the ground, making a soft sound.

Although the sound is not loud, it can still be clearly heard by everyone in the hall.

Many participants looked at each other in blank dismay, looked at the two of them, and then saw that the normal start time of the grand ceremony had passed, and felt that the atmosphere was even more strange.

"President, are you still waiting?"

"Don't wait! Arrogant boy, one day I want him to look good!"

Wang Youlong's face was livid, and he was about to turn around and enter the arena, but Qiu Ming stopped him first:
"President, don't wait for later, I have a solution now, keep this kid in a big stumble!"

"Oh? Tell me?"

Qiu Ming chuckled, and immediately listened to him, telling him his plan.

Wang Youlong thought for a moment after listening, then looked at Qiu Ming:
"Have you arranged everything?"

"Don't worry, let him take the bait!"

"Alright, find a chance to kill this kid's vigor,"

Wang Youlong said, his eyes narrowed slightly:
"There is also that set of Mingquan Xiaotianlong, hum, playing tricks, really think that a complete set of ancient coins is so easy to collect? I will also go to the Tian family's birthday banquet, and let that kid know, who said that in the Nanling ancient spring circle? Forget it!"

……

There were more than a dozen craftsmen brought back by Ye Shiyun, and all board and lodging had to be arranged in advance, so Ren Ping was busy booking hotels, buying daily necessities and other chores in the past two days.

Before the original factory of Ren's Wood Industry resumed operation, it had to make do with it.

Fortunately, there is plenty of time. Calculated, the Tian family birthday banquet will be held in three days, which is enough time to accommodate these craftsmen.

"Sister Yun, when does your flight arrive?"

"There are quite a lot of people this afternoon, don't forget to pick up the plane."

"Ok."

After hanging up the phone, Ren Ping went out to leave, intending to book another bus to pick him up.

But at this moment, the phone rang, and it was Wu Yousheng.

"Little bottle, are you free now?"

After picking it up, the other end immediately asked, sounding like a matter of urgency.

"There's something wrong, what's the matter, Uncle Wu?"

"Are you in a hurry? If not, accompany me to the Spring and Autumn League."

"Spring and Autumn Alliance? What is it?"

Ren Ping was taken aback.

"A coalition of major auction houses, hey, it's too late to talk nonsense, I'll pick you up in a car, we'll talk about it on the way."

Said hang up the phone.

Ren Ping felt at a loss at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he came back with some aftertaste.

Spring and Autumn League?It seems to be recorded in the system.
