End of the World Stockpiling Foodie

Chapter 53 Linglong Jade Bead
"I found it in the basement of my home when I moved earlier. It was my father's collection." Chen Yuanyuan didn't know how to explain the antiques that came out of nowhere. He remembered the basement of the villa in the island area and just used it.

"I have a chance to get to know your father. These paintings are better preserved than museums, so I have to ask you for advice." Zou Lao said.

Although Zou Bosong can be Chen Yuanyuan's grandfather, the collecting industry has no age distinction and respects strength. After seeing the paintings, Zou Bosong firmly believes that Chen Yuanyuan's father is a low-key expert.

"My father passed away two years ago," Chen Yuanyuan said.

"I'm sorry, it's a pity that we didn't meet each other by chance, otherwise," Zou Bosong said regretfully.

"Grandpa Zou, my feet are numb, let's go and have a meal." Zheng Jiayu interrupted Zou Bosong at the right time, and hurriedly let everyone go to eat first.

After arriving at the restaurant, there was a steady middle-aged man waiting outside.

"Hello Chairman Zou, Mr. Zheng, Manager Yuan and Ms. Chen, I am Jia Xiangjun, the person in charge of this auction. I have prepared delicious food and wine for all the distinguished guests. I wonder if I can give you some thin noodles to the private room together." Jia Xiangjun said When they saw someone coming, they immediately stepped forward to receive them.

Just now when Li Limao reported to him what happened in the exhibition area, he was almost so angry that he slapped Li Limao to death.

Neither Zou Bosong from the Antiques Association nor the Zheng family behind Zheng Jiayu could afford to offend Jia Xiangjun, so Jia Xiangjun immediately ordered someone to arrange a box and wait for the four of them here early.

"Xiao Jia, your people have offended my distinguished guest." Elder Zou said displeasedly, frowning.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Chen, on behalf of Christende Auction House, I sincerely apologize to you." Jia Xiangjun bowed deeply to Chen Yuanyuan, sincerely apologizing.

"It's okay, it's all over." Jia Xiangjun's solemn apology shocked Chen Yuanyuan. Although Jia Xiangjun was also responsible for the mismanagement of his subordinates, he did not expect to apologize as soon as they met.

"Mr. Jia, take us in quickly, Mr. Zou is tired from looking at the paintings all morning." Yuan Shaoxue smoothed things over.

"Go in!" Elder Zou said.Jia Xiangjun was also an auction house that he saw working from a young age to a big one now, and he was quite a decent person. Seeing that Chen Yuanyuan didn't pursue him, he let him go.

Hearing Mr. Zou's words, Jia Xiangjun immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and led everyone to the box.

After everyone was seated, Jia Xiangjun made a toast to everyone present, and the atmosphere of the dinner was quite friendly.

The waiter in a slim long cheongsam entered the box with pots of delicacies.

Braised shark fin, geoduck sashimi, roast suckling pig with crispy skin, abalone and goose palm, braised seasonal vegetables with shrimp, fried wagyu beef with garlic, steamed egg white ball with flower carving, roast goose with fruit wood, etc.

As a foodie, Chen Yuanyuan didn't miss any of the dishes on the table, and while responding to the conversation with everyone, she tasted the food silently.

There was also an auction in the afternoon, and everyone just had a few drinks and chatted about the various auction items in the afternoon.

"Several big names came here today for the finale auction item." Speaking of the auction item, Jia Xiangjun let everyone know.

"Oh? Where did it come from?" Yuan Shaoxue asked.

"Do you have any memory of the massacre of the Zhao family in Xiangcheng 30 years ago?" Jia Xiangjun said.

When everyone heard about the Zhao family, they immediately became quiet.

For 30 years, thirteen members of the Zhao family were wiped out overnight, even the baby in their infancy. The methods of committing crimes were brutal, and the knives were fatal. Only the young master of the Zhao family who was studying abroad survived.

"The family heirloom of the Zhao family that disappeared after the murder——Linglong Yuzhu is the grand finale!"

"Linglong Yuzhu? Where did it come from?" Chen Yuanyuan was not born 30 years ago, and she only heard about the Zhao family extermination case. In addition, the information was not circulated back then, so only a few people knew the inside story.

"Have you heard of the legend of Heshibi?" Jia Xiangjun asked Chen Yuanyuan, seeing Chen Yuanyuan nodding, Jia Xiangjun continued.

"It is said that after King Qin unified the world, he carved this piece of Heshibi, which is known as the most precious in the world, into a Jade Seal of the Kingdom, and the original stone left after the sculpture disappeared in the long years."

"The Linglong Jade Pearl is said to be a part of He's Wall." Jia Xiangjun said.
