Hearing Gu Ning's words, Leng Shaoting was happy, and he didn't mind that Gu Ning would take it for herself. "Great, I'll take it on behalf of grandpa."
After that, they went back to the house.
Before long, the news that someone had cut out the King's Green spread in the street of stone gambling, and everyone was jealous of it.
When they were back in the house, it was time for dinner again, and Leng Shaoting cooked for them by himself.
Because Gu Ning was on her period, Leng Shaoting didn't allow her to cook for him at all. Even if Gu Ning wasn't on her period, Leng Shaoting wouldn't let her cook for him, because he loved her so much.
Leng Shaoting was really good at cooking. Gu Ning thought that she was good at cooking, but after eating the dishes cooked by Leng Shaoting, she realized that Leng Shaoting's cooking was even better than hers.
When they were having dinner, Leng Shaoting's phone rang, and the caller was Xu Jingchen. Xu Jingchen told them that there would be an auction at 2 pm tomorrow, and asked them whether they wanted to join in the fun.
Hearing that, Gu Ning was excited, and told Leng Shaoting to agree. She also told Leng Shaoting to ask Xu Jingchen for a place, because she wanted to sell an object.
Gu Ning didn't want to sell an object for money, she just wanted to join in the fun.
"Gu Ning, do you have an antique too? What is it? "Xu Jingchen asked with curiosity.
Gu Ning thought for a while, then said, "Official Kiln Brush Washer."
Gu Ning just wanted to join in the fun, and she didn't want to sell something too expensive.
"Great, I'll ask for a place." Xu Jingchen agreed with alacrity. He didn't know much about antiques, so he didn't ask further about the origin and authenticity of the Official Kiln Brush Washer.
Xu Jingchen believed that Gu Ning wouldn't sell a fake one at the auction. Even if she did, it still needed to be appraised by the appraiser of the auction house.
Appraisers weren't always right, so there were imitations from time to time. Because some imitations were so good that many experts couldn't tell the difference. However, the auctioneer would be allowed to appraise it in person before the auction. If he or she made a mistake, it was his or her own business. The auction house didn't need to take any responsibility, and its reputation wouldn't be damaged because it was a rule.
After hanging up Xu Jingchen's call for a few minutes, Leng Shaoting's phone rang again. This time, it was Master Leng who called him to talk about the auction.
Master Leng was also an antique lover, so he naturally wanted to go to the auction. He asked Leng Shaoting whether he was free tomorrow. He heard that there was a painting by Xu Beihong, and he wanted it.
Leng Shaoting directly said that he wasn't free, because he had to attend the auction with Gu Ning, so he couldn't accompany Master Leng.
Leng Shaoting didn't tell him the reason, otherwise Master Leng would definitely run over, and it wouldn't be good if he scared Gu Ning.
In order to prevent Master Leng from going there, Leng Shaoting said, "If you want the painting, I can arrange someone to buy it for you tomorrow. There are too many people at the auction, so it's better not to go there."
"I have to go there in person to know whether it's real or fake. If it's fake, it'll be a waste, "Master Leng said.
"Then I can give you a better calligraphy than Xu Beihong's, so you don't need to go," Leng Shaoting said. Master Leng just didn't want Master Leng to go.
"Do you want Xu Beihong's painting, or Zhao Mengfu's Luo Shen Fu?" Leng Shaoting asked.
"What?" Master Leng was shocked all of a sudden, then he got excited and asked with uncertainty, "Do you have Zhao Mengfu's Luo Shen Fu?"
"Yes," Leng Shaoting said.
After hearing Leng Shaoting's confirmation, Master Leng couldn't wait to get it. "Give it to me now!"
"I'll give it to you later." Since Leng Shaoting mentioned Zhao Mengfu's Luo Shen Fu, he planned to give it to Leng Shaoting today. If he didn't want to stop Leng Shaoting from going to the auction, he wouldn't mention Zhao Mengfu's Luo Shen Fu now, because he had to be separated from Gu Ning for a few hours.
Leng Shaoting knew that his grandfather couldn't sleep if he couldn't get the painting. Leng Shaoting was old, and Leng Shaoting didn't want him to suffer.
"How late is later? No, you have to give it to me as soon as possible, "Leng Shaoting said. Master Leng couldn't wait any longer. He wished that the Luo Shen Fu was in his hands right now.
"I'm having dinner now, and I'll give it to you after dinner," Leng Shaoting said.
"Great, hurry up," Master Leng urged.
After hanging up the call, Leng Shaoting told Gu Ning. Gu Ning had already heard it on the phone, so she didn't mind.
After dinner, Leng Shaoting went back to Family Leng's house with the painting and the King's Green.
After Leng Shaoting was gone, Gu Ning sent a message to Lu Zhan and Duan Lixin. She told them that the office building and the company had been registered, so they wouldn't worry about it.
After receiving Gu Ning's message, Lu Zhan and Duan Lixin indeed felt relieved. From now on, they would work for Fenghua Entertainment.
Of course, they still needed to sign a contract, because they wouldn't be official employees until they signed the contract.
In Family Leng's house, Master Leng had been on tenterhooks ever since he hung up the call with Leng Shaoting. He kept asking the housekeeper to check whether Leng Shaoting was back.
It was already past 7 pm, and Family Leng, Master Leng, Leng Yuanqian, Jiang Shuyuan, Leng Shaojia, and Leng Yuanzhen, Yu Yin, and Leng Shaoxun were all there, but Leng Shaoming and Leng Shaoxi weren't.
Knowing that Master Leng was on tenterhooks because Leng Shaoting was coming back, Leng Yuanqian's family was fine, but Leng Yuanqian's family was displeased.
Although this was Leng Shaoting's house, they still thought that Leng Shaoting was an unwelcome outsider.
"Grandpa, didn't Shao Shaoting just come back yesterday? Why are you so excited? "Leng Shaoxun asked with curiosity.
Not only Leng Shaoxun, but the others were also curious. They had never seen Master Leng so excited just because Leng Shaoting was back.
"Because Shao Shaoting brought me Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy, Luo Shen Fu. It's a very valuable collection!" Master Leng said with excitement. He even praised Leng Shaoting, which made Leng Yuanqian's family feel even more displeased.
However, they had to admit that Leng Shaoting was indeed very capable. He even managed to get Zhao Mengfu's calligraphy, Luo Shen Fu.
They all knew that Master Leng loved antique calligraphy and paintings, and they all wanted to buy them to please him, but antique calligraphy and paintings were very rare now. Many times, they couldn't be bought even if they had enough money.
"Humph! What's so great about it? It's just a lousy calligraphy and painting, "Leng Shaojia said with disdain. She didn't really think that it was a lousy calligraphy and painting, but she was just displeased.
