Chapter 44 Nobles

New Century Auction House's autumn auction lasted until nearly twelve o'clock, and the last item on the lot was an exotic beast agate cup from the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty.

In fact, many of the big guys present today came here for this antique, which can be called a national treasure.

The starting price is 18 million, and not everyone present is qualified to raise a placard to bid. They must prove their assets to be qualified to bid for the Alien Beast Agate Cup.

The final hammer price was 28 million!

The price made Chen Jing stunned. He felt envious and longing at the same time. He also wished that one day he would be able to pick up an antique of this level.

However, the hammer price of 28 million is actually only acceptable in the entire auction market. Some antiques can fetch hundreds of millions, or even billions.

It's just that Chen Jing is far from having such big ambitions now, or in other words, he still dares not think about it.

Almost every piece of antiques worth hundreds of millions can be said to be rare and truly rare treasures.

After the auction, there was a banquet held by New Century, which was held in the most luxurious banquet hall of the Mingcheng Hotel.

Chen Jingxian and Zhao Zheng met, and the latter smiled when he saw him: "Xiao Chen, you have to treat me to a nice drink."

"No problem, you can drink whatever you want, Uncle Zhao." Chen Jing responded with a smile on his face.

Zhao Zheng added: "I really didn't expect that your inkstone could be sold for one million. Even if your inkstone has good publicity resources, reaching a transaction price of one million still requires some luck."

"Yeah, speaking of it, it's all thanks to Huang Jie. If he hadn't insisted on causing trouble, I guess Sister Shen wouldn't have asked Professor Chen for help." Chen Jing did not deny this, and nodded in agreement.

Professor Chen could not have taken the lead in raising a sign to raise the price for no reason. He did not take the photo of the Qiyang stone inkstone in the end. It was obviously Shen Jing who asked him for help.

And if Professor Chen hadn't held up a sign to raise the price, Chen Jing's Qiyang stone inkstone would not only have failed to sell, but it would also have been difficult to attract multiple bids.

All we can say is that one drink and one peck has its own destiny.

"Speaking of which, Minister Shen's connections are really wide, and he was able to ask Professor Chen for help." Zhao Zheng also understood the reason for the matter and said with emotion.

Upon hearing this, Chen Jing quickly asked curiously: "Uncle Zhao, who is that Professor Chen? He can actually make Cao Tianhua lose his temper immediately."

Zhao Zheng looked around, and then whispered: "Chen Gu, a professor of history at Tunghai University and a famous archaeologist."

Chen Jing was slightly shocked when he heard this, but he still had some doubts. Tunghai University is a top university, and the two identities of history professor and archaeologist are also very important, but it is not something that makes Cao Tianhua and Huang Jie afraid.

Zhao Zheng guessed what he was looking at, and lowered his voice again: "The most important thing is that his three children are great. The eldest son and the youngest daughter are both in politics. The younger daughter is fine and is in charge of culture, but

The eldest son is from our province..."

Chen Jing was shocked when he heard the position of Chen Gu's eldest son, and then his face was full of realization.

No wonder, no wonder Cao Tianhua and Huang Jie are afraid of becoming like that. Their eldest son's position is already unspeakably high.

Zhao Zheng paused and continued: "Professor Chen's second son is also a big shot. He is a famous entrepreneur in our province, with a net worth of over 10 billion."

"Think about it, with Professor Chen's status, how many people in Changcheng would dare to offend him?"

Chen Jing was filled with shock, thinking to himself that this time he really borrowed the power of a god by taking advantage of Huang Jie's presence.

As the two of them talked, they arrived at the banquet hall. Zhao Zheng was still sighing: "In my opinion, Minister Shen probably has some background, otherwise I wouldn't be able to ask Professor Chen for help."

Chen Jing also thought the same thing, even though Shen Jing usually seemed quite approachable, she really didn't look like a rich young lady from a wealthy family.

When Zhao Zheng was talking about Cao Cao and Cao Cao's arrival, he saw Shen Jing walking over with a happy face and a smile on her face.

"Boss Zhao." Shen Jing said hello to Zhao Zheng first, then looked at Chen Jing and said: "Xiao Chen, I will take you to meet Professor Chen. Thanks to his help just now, you have to thank him for his help." .”

Chen Jing's heart skipped a beat, his expression straightened up, and he quickly responded: "Yes, I know Sister Shen."

Zhao Zheng was equally surprised when he heard this. He glanced at Chen Jing with a faint expression of amazement.

After Shen Jing took Chen Jing to find Professor Chen, Zhao Zhengcai said to himself with emotion: "Xiao Chen is really lucky. Not only is he lucky when he picks up things, but he also meets many noble people."

There is no doubt that Shen Jing is Chen Jing's noble person. She not only helped him get the best resources for publicity, but also helped him solve the problem that Huang Jie caused today.

These are nothing, Shen Jing actually brought him to Professor Chen to make him look familiar. Although she said thank you, Professor Chen actually did not need Chen Jing to thank him at all. Shen Jing brought him here specially. Chen Jing came over to get acquainted.

Although it may just be a familiar face, there are also levels of familiarity. For a person of Professor Chen's level, I don't know how many people are asking for a familiar face, but he is still not qualified.

"But if we really dig into it, it seems that Kong Xue is Xiao Chen's real nobleman. Without Kong Xue, he would not have known Minister Shen, and everything that follows would be impossible to talk about." Zhao Zheng thought about it again. .

Then, he couldn't help but chuckle: "Come to think of it, Kong Xue is still a prosperous husband. No wonder Xiao Chen likes her so much."

Here, Shen Jing took Chen Jing directly to the banquet where Chen Gu was sitting. In the best seat in the entire banquet hall, the people who were qualified to sit with her were the most senior bosses present and the chairman of New Century.

"Xiao Chen, don't be nervous. I just want to say thank you to Professor Chen. He has a very easy-going personality. In addition, he is also quite curious about you after knowing that you are only in your early twenties. After all, you can pick things up at such a young age."

Shen Jing seemed to be afraid that Chen Jing would be nervous, so she comforted him in a low voice.

Chen Jing was indeed nervous. Who wouldn't be nervous to meet such a big shot? Don't forget that he was just a poor student with a very ordinary class.

"Professor Chen, this is Chen Jing." Shen Jing led Chen Jing to the main seat and introduced in a low voice.

Chen Jing looked at Chen Gu. He was about seventy years old. His hair was still gray and he looked in good spirits. He had a red face and wore old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses. He looked very bookish and indeed looked like a professor. .

"Oh?" Professor Chen turned around and glanced at Chen Jing, then smiled and said: "You are really so young. The young man is very good. He can pick up mistakes at a young age. It seems that he has a good eye for appraisal."
