Super-rich: Spending money is just a job!

Chapter 71 Entering Beijing 48

Over the next few hours, Xiaomeng noticed that every time someone held up a sign, someone would turn around and look at her.

She raised her hand, and someone turned to look at her again.

It was as if they were afraid she would be eliminated.

Even the auctioneer on stage kept glancing at her.

She was speechless, so she could only smile and let it go.

Realizing they were inconveniencing others, Xiaomeng and Xia discussed it. They decided to take this opportunity to rest and at least have a leisurely lunch.

So the two of them walked out of Hall E on the first floor, close to the wall.

……

The auction company has booked both the Chinese and Western restaurants at this resort hotel, providing free buffet meals to attendees all day.

This made it impossible for Xiaomeng to order food with her own money, because the kitchen staff were all working hard to ensure the supply of the buffet restaurant.

Xiaomeng and Xiaxia grabbed some of their favorite snacks and found a cool corner in the restaurant to sit down.

Those who come here to attend the auction are all respectable people; I didn't see anyone frantically grabbing a bunch of food to eat.

"Looks like this big auction house makes a lot of money, daring to provide a free buffet for so many people." Xiaomeng stuffed a braised quail egg into her mouth.

The tiny quail eggs were perfectly seasoned, and Xiaomeng was in a very good mood.

"That's for sure. The large-scale auctions held by the Xiliang Seal Society always generate at least several billion in sales each time."

Such a large auction is held twice a year. Just think how much commission they can get from it!

"Offering a free buffet is no big deal," Xia said, chatting with her while eating seafood pasta. "This pasta is pretty good, why don't you go get some to try?"

"These foreign noodles look a bit stiff, and I don't like hard noodles," Xiaomeng said, her tone much more playful than her peers.

"Although it looks a bit firm, it's already cooked very tender. Really, the seafood on top is also very flavorful."

It's even better than the pasta place downstairs from our office.

"No wonder it's a five-star hotel's kitchen!" Xia exclaimed, praising the chefs at the resort hotel.

"No, thank you. I prefer braised pork. It's just right with some white rice."

Look at their braised lamb chops, such a big chunk, so fragrant and tender.

The side dishes like braised eggs, tofu skin, and potatoes are also delicious.

And this caviar is so crunchy, it's delicious with Xinjiang flatbread (naan).

I have to say, the chef at this restaurant is really skilled; he does both Chinese and Western food quite well.

I'll have to bring my sister to try it next time.

Xiaomeng and Xia, two young women with great appetites, were eating with great gusto, almost forgetting about the auction that was about to take place.

"Xia, what are you doing here?" Someone patted Xia, the lawyer, on the shoulder.

Lawyer Xia was startled and turned around to see, "Teacher Lang!"

She quickly stood up and greeted, "Hello, Teacher Lang. Oh, Teacher Deng is here too."

Hello teachers, I'm on fieldwork, accompanying a client to the auction.

Lang Mingxi glanced at Xiaomeng, who was sitting at the same table as her, and said, "Oh, it's Miss Lin."

"Miss Lin, are you here for the auction?"

Xiaomeng found this kind of social interaction a bit difficult. She knew this lawyer somewhat, but they weren't very familiar with each other, and she really didn't know how to greet him.

He could only wave his hand haphazardly, "Hello, Attorney Lang, you're here for the auction too?"

"You must have acquired quite a few items you liked."

Lang Mingxi smiled at the young girl, then turned to the old woman beside him and introduced her, "Teacher Deng, let me introduce you two."

This is the new client of our law firm that I mentioned to you last time.

Lin Xiaomeng, Miss Lin.

She's already our 24/7 partner.

"Ms. Lin, this is Deng Hongjuan, Attorney Deng, and also one of our partners at Junhe."

Since the introduction was so formal, Xiaomeng had no choice but to stand up respectfully.

First, extend both hands to Teacher Deng and say, "Hello, Attorney Deng, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Beside Attorney Lang, an elderly woman with gray hair smiled politely and warmly shook Xiao Meng's hands. "Oh, you're too kind, Ms. Lin. Thank you for choosing Junhe. It's an honor to serve you."

Please sit down, please sit down. We haven't disturbed your meal, have we?

Seeing that the old lady was quite amiable, Xiaomeng relaxed and sat down. "No, we're just taking a break and having a quick bite. We're almost finished."

Xiaomeng picked up her chopsticks again.

"Intermission? Miss Lin, are there any other sessions you'd like to attend later?" Attorney Deng sat down next to them, and Lang Mingxi left to help get some food.

Xia quickly followed to help.

Xiao Meng sat in her seat and answered honestly, "Yes, I also plan to participate in the jewelry and porcelain auction later."

The old lady clapped her hands. "Perfect timing! I was planning to attend the jewelry auction later too. Why don't we sit together?"

Xiaomeng didn't know what this person meant.

However, since the host was an older person and had taken the initiative to invite her, and she didn't mind, she agreed.
