NO.1 Antique Son-in-law - C113
Feng Yuqing saw that many of the crowd had been intimidated by this price. Some of the bosses actually didn’t lack this much money, but it was possible that this thing wasn’t going well. Thus, other than Jiang Yun who was eager to give it a try, no one seemed to want to bid at all.
“Let’s wait and see.” Lin Jing said. The early bidding was just to increase the price of this item.
“8 million is not a small amount, but I think this ring is indeed worth the price. I’ll be bidding on this 8 million first.”
Jiang Yuncai said half-jokingly, “I’m really busy today. I’ll be a host on one hand and bidding on the other. If this item doesn’t belong to me today, then I really will lose a lot.”
Everyone understood what Jiang Yuncai had to say. Even though some of them were interested in the thumb ring and didn’t want to offend the Jiang family, they still chose to give up.
“How could that be? Since Mister Jiang wants it, then I don’t think there’s any need to auction it. In any case, I don’t think there’s much interest in it, so I think if no one has any objections, I can just pass it on to Mister Jiang.”
From the looks of it, Mr. Zhao was trying to make a favor out of it by selling the item directly to the Jiang Clan. Although he might not earn too much, he had sold a favor to the Jiang Clan.
One had to know that while sometimes things had a price, favors were priceless.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuncai’s heart was filled with joy. However, on the surface, he still pretended to be unwilling.
“Ah, Mr Zhao, we can’t do this. This thing is your collection, logically speaking, it has nothing to do with me how you handle it. However, if you sell it to me alone, you might sell it for a lot less. The friends who came today were not lacking in money. “Therefore, to you, this is truly unfair.”
Feng Yuqing couldn’t help but laugh when he heard Jiang Yuncai’s words. “This Jiang Yuncai is such a tease. He obviously wants me to, but he wants me to show off. I’m going to be laughed to death by him.”
Lin Jing had his eyes fixed on the stage. Naturally, he saw the expression on Jiang Yuncai’s face.
“Since Jiang Yuncai wants someone to compete with him, how can we not allow that to happen?” Lin Jing said softly to Feng Yuqing before raising his left hand.
“Eight million five hundred thousand.” Lin Jing calmly said.
Mister Zhao and Jiang Yun were both stunned, especially Jiang Yuncai. He had wanted to exchange pleasantries with Mister Zhao, but who would’ve thought that someone would actually come to bid. Furthermore, this person was Lin Jing.
“I’m afraid Mister Lin Jing isn’t mistaken. I just said that I’m going to sell this thumb ring to Mister Jiang. Isn’t it a bit too much for you to come out and take away someone’s love?” Mr. Zhao said unhappily.
“Humph, I was wondering who it was. So it was Lin Jing who brought a fake yesterday. I really have no idea what he was doing. Yesterday he was exposed, but today he still dares to come.”
“That’s right, we can’t compare to someone like Lin Jing. He was able to take out a fake yesterday, so I don’t think the item he bought today was real money …”
“What do you mean? What was the truth of yesterday’s matter? We can’t determine it yet, so are you all just slandering us? ” How could Feng Yuqing keep listening? He stood up and roared his rebuttal.
“Manager Feng, don’t say anymore.” Lin Jing stopped her.
“Why? The words they said were too unpleasant to listen to. Furthermore, the matter yesterday has yet to be determined, they …” I can’t stand it. ” Feng Yuqing was extremely angry.
“So what if we can’t take this lying down? If you say that you are being wrongly accused, then bring out the evidence. Without evidence, we are still willing to believe in our eyes.”
Even if Feng Yuqing wanted to explain himself, no one wanted to believe him. So it was useless to say anything now.
“I can understand everyone’s current attitude. After all, in this situation, we were framed. Right now, it is extremely difficult for us to buy anything.”
Lin Jing said indifferently. He didn’t know if he was trying to console himself, or if he simply wanted to say these things.
“Mister Lin Jing is being modest. Now, who doesn’t know that Mister Lin’s order is not as good as it was before? Yesterday’s incident caused most of the customers to cancel their orders. I just want to ask, if it’s really as Mister Lin said, and someone is framing you, then I don’t think those customers will listen to these rumors, right?”
After all, most of them bought something from your Paulinus store. If the item they bought before was real, then even if there was a rumor, people wouldn’t easily believe it. However, why did all of your customers cancel the order?
“Whether it’s someone framing us, or something you just sold, we really need to think about.”
When Lin Jing heard these words, he felt a very bitter feeling in his heart. But now, no one would believe him if he said something like this. There was no need to even mention explaining it.
Only then did Jiang Yun start to pretend to be a good person. “Since someone wants to bid on this ring with me, I naturally have no objections. However, I am not the owner of this ring after all. It still depends on Mr. Zhao’s decision.”
“I can understand why Mr. Zhao would not sell this ring to me. After all, the matter from before has caused everyone to harden their hearts against our Baolin Temple. However, what I want to tell Mr. Zhao is that what you feel is right now, in the future, you might think it is extremely stupid. After Lin Jing finished speaking, he sat down.
Mister Zhao glanced at him coldly, then turned to Jiang Yun and said, “Mister Jiang, in my opinion, what Mister Lin said just now meant that he had given up on bidding. Thus, I have decided to sell this thumb ring to you.”
This was naturally the most suitable opportunity for Jiang Yuncai. Thus, he did not decline and quickly bought the ring.
“Um, let me say one more time. It’s not wrong for Lin Jing to want to buy this ring, but what I want to say is that in our business, you must know the rules. Young people shouldn’t be so angry that you break the rules.”
Jiang Yuncai’s words sounded like he was trying to persuade Lin Jing, but in reality, he was mocking Lin Jing for not understanding the rules.
“I understand what Mister Jiang means.” Lin Jing lightly said.
“It’s good that you understand. Young man, you still have a lot of chances.” Jiang Yuncai seemed to be looking down at Lin Jing from a high vantage point. His words were filled with a strong sense of contempt.
“Since that’s the case, we will take our leave first. After all, something has happened in the Baolin Temple. There are many things that need us to take care of.” Lin Jing stood up and said.
“You’re right, now it’s time for me to take a good look.” After Jiang Yun had obtained the thumb ring that he wanted, he was in high spirits and did not place Lin Jing in his eyes at all.
“Right, do you want to take your items now, or should I return them to your treasure house later?” Jiang Yun asked.
“It’s better if we take it back ourselves. I won’t trouble you guys.” Lin Jing replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
“Hmm, it’s good to take it back. After all, this item is still controversial. If there is any problem with the middle, then it would not be good.” Jiang Yuncai said with a fake smile.
“Yes, I will definitely come and inform Mister Jiang of this after I’ve made clear all of this. I don’t want Mister Jiang to be scared.” As Lin Jing spoke, he took his own collection with Feng Yuqing and left.
Mister Jiang is truly magnanimous. If I were you, I wouldn’t have let Lin Jing leave so easily.
One of the people below the stage said with a righteous indignation, as if he was truly feeling indignant for the Jiang Clan.
However, no one agreed with him. Although everyone had the same attitude towards this matter, they didn’t agree with his lecherous words.
When Lin Jing was here a moment ago, he hadn’t said a single word. Now that Lin Jing had left, his spirits were piqued.
Even a man with guts like him would look down on him.
“There’s no need to get angry over Lin Jing. Whatever he did, the one to be punished would be him.”
Jiang Yuncai said magnanimously.
As Jiang Yun recalled the events that had occurred in the past two days, he was almost certain that Lin Jing and Baolin had already lost their momentum.
Unless a deity came to help Lin Jing, there was no way he would be able to turn the tables on him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun couldn’t help but laugh. With him successfully arranging this Treasure Convention, the old lady should be very happy. With this, he would be able to control the Jiang family within a few days.
“Boss, where are we going now?” Feng Yuqing asked as they left the Treasure Convention.
He knew that today’s matter had dealt a huge blow to Lin Jing. Although Lin Jing normally wouldn’t show it, in the face of such a situation, if it were anyone else, they wouldn’t have been able to bear it.
“Let’s head back first. There are some things I need to take a closer look at.”
Feng Yuqing let out a sigh of relief at Lin Jing’s words. Lin Jing didn’t pretend that nothing had happened. He said that if he wanted to smooth things over, he might actually come up with a way to deal with the current situation.
“Alright, I’ll take you home first.” Feng Yuqing didn’t wait for Lin Jing to respond. He turned a corner and headed straight for the Precious Forest Temple.
“Manager Feng, thank you so much.” Lin Jing sincerely said.
“Why are you still thanking me? Don’t think too much about it. Go back and rest. Our Baolin Zhai will be fine.”
Feng Yuqing looked at Wu Qing, who was standing in front of him. She knew that he hadn’t been able to sleep well for the past few days.
Lin Jing nodded, closed his eyes, and sank into deep thought.
After returning to his room, Lin Jing casually tossed his phone on the sofa. He took off his clothes and went into his bedroom, lying down on his bed.
After an unknown period of time, the doorbell rang. Lin Jing finally woke up.
