Seeing the beautiful woman in front of him approaching, Li Xiangqian felt a little familiar.
Looks like I've seen it somewhere.
Where is it?
After thinking seriously for a few seconds, he immediately remembered.
The beautiful woman in front of me, who was so familiar, I had seen her at the Qin family mansion last night.
right!
Last night, he fought seven battles in one night. In addition to visiting the Northern faction's base camp, he also visited the Qin family's mansion and the five jade bases under the Qin family.
And when he was lurking in the courtyard of the Qin family's mansion, he actually saw this woman leaving the Qin family's house, and she used the back door.
I didn't care at the time.
Suddenly seeing this woman appear in the jade carving competition today, Li Xiangqian immediately had an intuition that this woman seemed to be something special.
Just as Li Xiangqian was thinking about it in his mind, Xu Zhenqiang walked out.
This old man Xu is really highly respected and a spiritual model in the field of Heyang jade.
Whether it is public or private sales, various jade cultural exchange exhibitions, or jade carving competitions, Xu Zhenqiang is often the one who must be invited.
If jade is not polished, it will not become a useful tool.
Three points of material, seven points of work.
Jade carvings have always been an important part of jade culture.
This time was no exception. In such an eye-catching Jade Carving Competition for the Divine Sword Award, as the number one leader of the Heyang Jade Chamber of Commerce, Xu Zhenqiang did his part and once again presided over the competition in person as the chairman.
And not only was he personally in charge this time, in order to prevent others from playing tricks under his nose, Old Man Xu also specially transferred some key personnel from the Heyang Jade Chamber of Commerce.
The hot-bodied beauty in uniform just now, named Han Yahong, was the backbone of the Heyang Jade Chamber of Commerce that Xu Zhenqiang personally recruited.
He is considered Xu Zhenqiang’s confidant.
Li Xiangqian didn't know Han Yahong, so he called Hu Huidi who was standing next to him and asked him.
Knowing that this person was Xu Zhenqiang's confidant, Li Xiangqian did not relax his vigilance.
There is no way that Senior Xu's best confidant would sneak into Qin's house late at night, cover his ears and sneak out through the back door of Qin's house.
so……
There must be something wrong with this guy.
Just as Li Xiangqian was quietly sizing up Han Yahong and secretly making guesses, Xu Zhenqiang finally spoke.
"Everyone, we in Heyang are really full of talents. Not only are there experts in stone gambling, but also jade carving talents. Moreover, this jade carving competition is even more meaningful. It is two female disciples from the southern sect and the northern sect competing for the crown of the king. It's really
It is gratifying that women do not let men down."
As Xu Zhenqiang spoke, he took the number box used for drawing numbers from Han Yahong.
"Everyone, this box is empty, and there are a hundred number balls with serial numbers next to it. For the sake of fairness, my assistant Yahong is in charge of this box and the number balls. Now I personally put these one hundred numbers.
A ball is poured in, and then the two disciples participating in the game each choose a ball to play."
After Xu Zhenqiang finished speaking, he glanced at Han Yahong aside.
Han Ya Hongxin nodded in understanding, and immediately brought up the box containing a hundred numbered balls, and then handed it directly to Xu Zhenqiang in full view of everyone.
Xu Zhenqiang didn't delay, let alone count. He just stared at it and poured a hundred number balls directly into the square opaque lottery box.
At this moment, Li Xiangqian highly suspected that there was something wrong with Han Yahong.
In addition, this jade carving final is very crucial and must not be neglected.
So when Xu Zhenqiang poured the numbered balls into the box, everyone present just took a quick look, because no one would have thought that there would be any problems.
But Li Xiangqian was different. Not only did he watch Xu Zhenqiang pour the numbered balls into the whole place, but he also counted them rapidly throughout the process.
After a high frequency of stone identification, and having been trained by his master in all kinds of inhuman torture since childhood, his eyes have already developed a strong ability to observe.
Even though Xu Zhenqiang poured all the balls in at once, Li Xiangqian still counted the number of balls clearly under observation.
What was just poured into this box was not a hundred, but ninety-nine.
One is missing.
In such an important game, since Chairman Xu has already said that the number of balls is 100, it must be 100, it cannot be less.
And there was no way he could count it wrong.
unless……
There's something fishy here.
"Everyone, all the numbered balls have been poured in under the attention of everyone. Next, two groups of experts will be invited to come up and choose the numbers."
After Xu Zhenqiang finished speaking, Qi Mengchen and Yao Xuewei stood up and went on stage at the same time.
Long Xiaoyun, the leader of the Northern Sect, already believed that he would definitely win this competition, and in order to gain a good reputation, he had already spoken out in advance.
The northern sect is prosperous because of its large number of people. In this playoff, Yao Xuewei, who was born in the southern sect, will be chosen first.
During the war, Yao Xuewei and her master Dong Yuchun did not want to have too much entanglement with Long Xiaoyun. Since you want to be a gentleman, then sacrifice your life to fulfill it.
So under Dong Yuchun's arrangement, Yao Xuewei was prepared to choose first.
Li Xiangqian didn't know what the political alliance between Long Xiaoyun and Qin Guangming was doing behind the scenes. If there was manipulation in the box, why did Yao Xuewei get the first choice?
Could it be...
Is there really something wrong with the box?
When Li Xiangqian thought of this step, Yao Xuewei had already walked to the number box and stretched out her hand to reach in and choose a number.
"Wait a moment!"
Li Xiangqian actually walked up directly, and then he looked at Yao Xuewei.
"Miss Yao, please wait a moment."
After Li Xiangqian stopped Yao Xuewei, he immediately looked at Xu Zhenqiang on the podium.
"Chairman Xu, a hundred numbered balls have been put in. For the sake of fairness, and to prevent some people from having evil intentions and using the game to achieve their ulterior purposes, I think it's better to ask Chairman Xu to go in and stir things up."
While Li Xiangqian was talking, he deliberately looked at Long Xiaoyun and Qin Guangming who were watching the battle below.
Since Yan Xiaonan was captured, Li Xiangqian now doesn't give any face to these two people.
When Long Xiaoyun and Qin Guangming saw Li Xiang Xiang criticizing Sang and Huai in public, and deliberately staring at them, they really had the urge to kill Li Xiang Xiang directly.
But in full view of the public, the two bosses could not make any move.
Xu Zhenqiang didn't understand what Li Xiangqian meant, but as a roly-poly in the entire jade industry, he knew that Li Xiangqian was a talented person and would definitely not talk too much when he was full.
So we cooperated and really put our hands in to stir things up.
And after he was done, he took advantage of the situation and said: "Li Xiangqian, from the beginning to now, this jade carving competition has been flawless and can definitely withstand any test. Since we want to maintain fairness, it is better to find a few more people to stir it up."
stir."
"Okay, since Chairman Xu has spoken of Chrysostom, I, if you are not talented enough, may I dare to stir things up."
"Can."
There really is an ulterior purpose in this box.
Just yesterday, when Qi Mengchen and Yao Xuewei tied with each other and the conference decided to draw lots to select numbers for the playoffs the next day, a vicious plan was hatched in Long Xiaoyun's mind.
