I am doing well in the Siheyuan

Li Huaide looked at Liu Haizhong with contempt, obviously thinking that his suggestion was not feasible: "No, in the old city, the information in the newspapers is strictly controlled by the government. Without special circumstances, no space will be reserved for civilian enterprises to place advertisements.

The reason why Changze Auction House appeared in the newspaper was because it was the first landmark auction house, and Ye Ming and senior management were behind it.

We don’t have the energy for that.”

Xu Damao suddenly had an idea: "Although we can't use newspapers, we can spread the word in a similar way. Newspapers need to be purchased, so we can print free flyers and pay people to distribute them. In this way, won't our reputation be raised?"

Li Huaide pondered for a moment and agreed with this plan: "You are talking about flyers, right? We can try this method. We can make it more sophisticated. Anyway, we have sufficient funds."

Afterwards, Li Huaide sorted out his thoughts and planned in detail all matters concerning the Foley Auction House. He decided to open the house around the Spring Festival and handed the publicity work to Xu Damao and others, requiring them to make sure to establish the reputation of "Folley Auction House".

The next day, Li Huaide hired a group of people to distribute beautiful flyers with the news of the establishment of Foley Auction House at the intersections of various blocks.

In that era, paper was considered a rare commodity, and passers-by had no resistance to the free paper. Instead, they were curious about the contents of the flyers.

Soon after, the news about the Foley Auction House spread like wildfire, and the flyer eventually fell into Ye Ming's hands.

"What do you think of this, Moth?"

After examining the leaflet, Ye Ming handed it to Lou Xiaoe.

"It's just children's play. If you want to run an auction house, you must have human, material and network resources. They don't have these conditions and it will be difficult for them to succeed." After carefully reading the contents of the flyer, Lou Xiao'e pointed out the key issue sharply.

"I think they may be able to open, but the final outcome will probably be a mess." Ye Ming commented with a smile. His opinion was mainly based on the name Li Huaide.

Ordinary people are not the main audience of the auction house. Although they may provide some antiques, most of them are likely to be fakes. After all, he has collected all the antiques in the city.

The demand for treasure appraisal requires a huge investment of manpower and material resources.

Using flyers for publicity obviously lowers the threshold, and truly wealthy people will not participate in such a makeshift auction house.

Although Foley Auction House is well-known, its position in the auction industry is awkward, neither rising nor falling.

Moreover, the ticket prices are relatively high. Rich people are not ignorant. Since there are better options, such as the free and reputable Nagasawa Auction House, why bother to get involved in such a fledgling Foley auction house?

However, considering the personalities of Li Huaide and Xu Damao, they are likely to resort to some sinister tactics, and the results are not difficult to foresee.

In this regard, Ye Ming and Lou Xiao'e agree that this is just a clown's performance and they just need to wait and see. They will naturally become the green leaves behind the glory of others.

At this moment, Ye Ming was wandering around the museum, but he only saw Hou Paolan, but Uncle Guan was nowhere to be seen.

"Where is Uncle Guan?" Ye Ming asked curiously.

Uncle Guan has a serious attitude towards his work at the museum. He is busy at home or in the museum.

"His son and daughter-in-law are back today!" Hou Polan responded helplessly. He had heard Uncle Guan complain about his son and daughter-in-law many times when they were drinking before. It was estimated that nothing good would happen when these two vampires came back.

After hearing this, Ye Ming said no more. After all, it was someone else's family affair.

At Uncle Guan’s house, the lazy cat also returned home.

"Mom and Dad, didn't you say you would return home in two years? Why are you back so early?" The lazy cat warmly welcomed his parents into the yard.

"The New Year is almost here, so we came back early! Dad, are you in good health?" Mr. and Mom Guan walked in with gifts, smiling.

"Little lazy cat, go get some wine!" Uncle Guan ignored his son and gave orders directly to the little lazy cat.

The scene was a little awkward, and Guan's mother gently pinched Guan's father's arm.

"Dad, I heard that you are now the director of the Nagasawa Lianze Museum?" Guan's father asked about Uncle Guan's identity with deliberate concern.

"Whether I am the director or not, what does it have to do with you?" Uncle Guan asked meaningfully, obviously feeling extremely disappointed that his son, who had just returned, was already planning to take over the museum.

He just smelled the wine but didn't swallow it.

"Dad, what do you mean? Aren't many of the collections in the museum the result of your hard work?" Seeing that Uncle Guan was intent on distancing themselves from the museum, Mother Guan became a little restless.

"Dad, Mom, are you coming back this time to see Grandpa or to visit the museum?" The lazy cat couldn't help but interrupt.

"Of course I watch them all, I watch them all!" When Mr. Guan heard what the lazy cat said, he realized that it was not appropriate to ask any further questions.

"Xiao Guan, I heard that you are now the manager of a restaurant. You see, we haven't eaten yet. Dad, you shouldn't have eaten either, right?" Guan's father took the opportunity to strengthen the long-lost family relationship by having dinner together.

"You guys go eat, I'm so angry!" If the little lazy cat hadn't dragged him back from the museum, he wouldn't have appeared here at all.

"Dad, we have been away from home for many years and have not been able to fulfill our filial duties. We are all family. You are on guard against us like this. Aren't you afraid that outsiders will laugh at you?" Guan's father began to complain.

These words made Uncle Guan even more angry.

"You know that others will laugh at me? Even if they laugh, they will laugh at me for not educating my son well! Cough cough!" Uncle Guan was so angry that his face turned red. The thing he regretted most in his life was that he failed to educate his son well.

The lazy cat quickly patted Uncle Guan on the back, trying to calm him down.

"Dad, you are old and not in good health. We take care of the museum. You can just enjoy your retirement at home. Little Lazy Cat can take care of you!" Guan's mother seemed to see hope and quickly spoke up.

Unexpectedly, when Uncle Guan heard this, his eyes widened with anger.

"Hmph, you guys are just hoping that I'll die soon so that you can take over the museum!" Family conflicts escalated at this point, and Uncle Guan became disheartened.

These two good-for-nothings have been eyeing the museum one after another. Not to mention that the museum is not theirs, even if it were theirs, they would have to sell those precious things abroad in the future.

"Dad, you're going too far. We feel sorry for you. How about this, you continue to keep an eye on the museum, and we promise not to interfere, okay?" Guan's father immediately echoed.

The old man is still in good health, there is no need to rush this matter.

If the father and son really turn against each other, they will not gain anything.

How could Uncle Guan not know what they were doing?

"Get out! Get out of the yard!" In a rage, Uncle Guan's face turned pale in an instant and he felt suffocated.

"Mom and Dad, please stop provoking Grandpa." The little lazy cat was worried and quickly signaled his parents to leave the yard.

"Dad, don't get excited. Let's go. Xiaoguan will take good care of you. We'll come back tomorrow."
