NO.1 Antique Son-in-law - C128

Lin Jing truly was somewhat difficult to deal with. He had never been to a Humanities City before, although with his current strength and status, he was already in the upper and middle ranks of the Arts Association. However, he was still a newcomer, so he was not clear about the rules and personnel inside.

Furthermore, even if the security department guarding the door knew him, it would be very awkward if they did not know him when they were in the Arts Association.

No matter how high your status or how much wealth you possess, it is useless if others don’t know and don’t recognize you. Even if he made it clear that he was the boss of Pauline’s Lodge, the result would still be the same, because he didn’t believe it at all and might even take the opportunity to mock him again.

After some thought, Lin Jing felt that he should first inform the association. After thinking for a moment, he sent a message to Feng Yuqing, asking him to call the Arts Association. The county magistrate might as well be in charge. As long as the people from the Literary Association came out, this matter would naturally be easily resolved.

When they saw Lin Jing’s text message, the security guard chuckled and said, “Hur Hur, your act is a bit too good. To whom are you sending a text message? It can’t be to the chairman, right? “Tsk, tsk, I suddenly feel a bit panicked. What should I do? You won’t find someone to drive me away later will you?”

Faced with the security guard’s mockery, Lin Jing remained calm and collected. There was no need to argue with such a minor character, and there would be no outcome. What he needed to do now was to quietly wait. As long as someone in charge came out, everything would be fine.

After waiting for a few minutes, the security guards’ disdain towards him increased. Furthermore, Lin Jing was standing outside the entrance to the association. To the security guards, he didn’t look too good either. With a cold expression, he followed, “Hey, your acting is almost done. I’ve also cooperated with you for a bit, so hurry up and f * ck off!”

He slanted his eyes at Lin Jing, but Lin Jing didn’t have the slightest intention of moving.

His actions angered the security guard, “Heh, laozi has given you face, right? I told you to scram, but you grew roots under your feet. Do you want me to help you pull it out? ”

Just as the security guard was about to make a move, a young man wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a cultured appearance walked out from the association. He looked around as soon as he reached the door, as if he was looking for someone.

Lin Jing’s heart stirred and he immediately asked, “Sir, are you looking for me?”

In fact, he couldn’t be blamed for this. Lin Jing’s usual attire was quite ordinary. In this era where it was difficult to see his face clearly, most of the time he would be ignored by others.

After Lin Jing finished speaking, he turned his golden-rimmed glasses around, but before he could say anything, the security guard smiled and said, “Secretary Wang, why are you here? Ignore this grandson and come here to cause trouble!” “Don’t worry, I’ll immediately chase him away. Oh right, what did the director say about the report I submitted last time?”

Secretary Wang did not pay any attention to the security guards. Instead, he looked at Lin Jing and asked, “Hello, may I ask if you are Mister Lin Jing from Baolin Temple?”

“It’s me.” Slightly nodding, Lin Jing was slightly relieved. Although a mere secretary wasn’t really a leader, at least for now, someone was leading the way. He turned around to look at the security guards and said, “I told you, you would regret it, right?”

The security guards were stunned. If they could stand guard at the entrance of the Cartoon Association, their reactions would naturally not be too slow. All sorts of eyes were also online. When he heard Lin Jing speak, he knew that something was wrong. Now that he had confirmed it, the name ‘Precious Forest Temple’ was very familiar to him. His heart began to panic.

Just as he was about to speak, Secretary Wang glanced at him and frowned. He carefully asked Lin Jing, “Mister Lin, what happened just now? If the security guards did something wrong, you can ask them at any time and we’ll just drive him. ”

Upon hearing these words, the security guard became extremely listless. His face revealed an expression that said he wanted to cry but had no tears to shed. He wanted to explain himself, but Lin Jing opened his mouth first.

“It’s nothing, it’s just my first time here and I can’t find the way. “May I ask who is in charge here today? I have something to ask.” Glancing at the security guards, Lin Jing waved his hand and told them everything that had happened. He didn’t want to get mad at any security guard.

“Oh, today, Manager Xu of Hongshan Restaurant is here. He is currently at the exhibition hall. Please follow me, Mister Xu.” Secretary Wang glanced at the security guard and then respectfully spoke to Lin Jing with a smile. He knew in his heart that something must have happened.

However, because of Lin Jing’s status and face, he naturally couldn’t say it out loud at the door. That would be unsightly. So he secretly noted it down and waited for his turn to deal with this eyeless thing. He could also mention this later. Firstly, he would probe what Lin Jing had said and how he planned to deal with it, and secondly, he would express his intentions.

Now, in this world, when one silently contributed, there would always be a time when light would shine and heat would come. This was already out of date. Now, even if you did something as big as a sesame seed bean, you had to make it into a big cake and tell it to everyone so that you could get what you deserved in return.

When the security guard saw that Lin Jing actually didn’t look for trouble with him, he let out a huge sigh of relief. He watched the two walk in and sighed to himself, “Competing with a person makes a person angry. A cripple like him actually has such good luck. He can be the boss.” Sigh, when will I have the wisdom of a tycoon to take a fancy to it? ”

Secretary Wang, who was leading the way for Lin Jing, said, “I’ve long heard that Mister Lin from the Precious Forest Temple is very young and capable. Today, I’ve seen that he really is extraordinary. I believe that under your leadership, the business of Paulinus will flourish. Right now, your identities at the Arts Association have already been changed. “In the future, when people from Baolinzhai come to the Arts Association, they will all enjoy the same treatment.”

After saying this, Secretary Wang paused for a moment, secretly observing the change in Lin Jing’s expression. However, he was unable to find any clues as he continued, “According to our rules, if Baolin is willing, he can send someone related to the matter over here.” The president of the association, Old Lady Jiang, is already very old. Therefore, most of the daily affairs are handled by the shopkeepers. ”

“We have a habit of managing every storekeeper for a week, until the next Monday. “Everyone can take turns managing it. Firstly, we can greatly improve our efficiency. Secondly, we can also avoid unnecessary trouble.”

Listening to Secretary Wang’s introduction, Lin Jing’s heart was moved. It seemed that the rules of the Arts Association were quite reasonable. Since the shopkeepers from each store were taking turns to take charge, they didn’t need to worry about which one would sit there for too long. They would tilt the profits towards their own home.

Besides, he also avoided the possibility of using the secret chamber to operate the secret chamber. Logically speaking, under this sort of system, the atmosphere of the Arts Association should be quite good. However, Lin Jing had sensed a slight difference in atmosphere along the way. The people who operated within this system weren’t as simple as they appeared to be.

Lin Jing’s expression did not change at all. No matter what, he would first find the person in charge for this week. Naturally, the Luo Family had the qualifications to send someone to manage the business. Thankfully, it was not the same this week.

The Xu family was also a family that had been in the Arts and Entertainment City for decades. However, unlike most trading companies, the Xu family only dealt with one thing, and that was the Buddha statue.

It was said that the founder of the Xu family’s Hongshan Restaurant was a fanatic of sculptures. He was especially fond of the ancient sculptures, so he had only focused on the Buddha statues from the very beginning.

After so many years, the people who could compete with them in this field no longer existed. Perhaps it was because the Xu family was adept in this aspect, but they rarely had any conflicts or alliances with other businesses in the Arts and Entertainment City.

After all, they were the ones in charge. Moreover, the Buddha statue was something that was not too popular in the literary industry. The price was only that and the profit was not that high.

The relatively low profit was due to the extremely high difficulty in appraising the Buddha statues. This sort of thing, what was right and wrong were two entirely different things. The difference of several decades, on the other hand, was very different. Those who did this were all focusing on their studies for half a lifetime, expending a great deal of effort and energy.

In addition, due to the special nature of the sculpture’s material, other than the various details in the sculpture, there was actually no other method that could be used to distinguish it.

The various scientific instruments that were used in modern literary appraisal were not very effective on Buddha statues. Because there was no such thing as a rock without time to precipitate, even a spectrometer could do nothing about it. In general, the Xu family’s literary city was more like a special existence independent of the secular world.

When he arrived at the Arts Association’s exhibition hall, there were a few people admiring the display rooms. Lin Jing’s eyes widened as he saw a 50-year-old middle-aged man standing in front of a platform in the middle. Because he had his back facing them, Lin Jing couldn’t see his face.

Secretary Wang smiled as he led Lin Jing over. “This is Shopkeeper Xu. He’s looking at a bronze Buddha statue of the Southern and Northern dynasties. He just arrived a few days ago.” “Manager Xu has been studying the same thing for several days.”

Lin Jing followed Secretary Wang as they approached. He whispered, “Shopkeeper Xu, Mister Lin of Baolin has come to discuss something with you.”

“Hey! How could it be like this? Just a bit more, just a bit more! “What a pity, what a pity!” Shopkeeper Xu suddenly said with an extremely regretful tone with an obsessed look.

Both of them looked a little embarrassed. Manager Xu’s obsession with the Buddha statue was beyond their imagination. Secretary Wang called out to him again in a small voice. Only then did he manage to react. He turned around and glanced at Lin Jing. With a frown, he bluntly asked, “Who are you? Why are you looking for me?”

Secretary Wang hurriedly explained, “This is Mister Lin Jing from Baolin Temple. He has something to discuss with you, do you want to …”
