Almighty Appraiser

Chapter 605
Na Yuanliang didn't believe Lu Zimo's feedback, including Na Jixing. Their uncles and nephews felt that there was no such thing as such a coincidence in the world.

Looking at the gloomy expressions of Na Yuanliang and Na Jixing, uncle and nephew, Lu Zimo sighed and said: "Director Na, Deputy Manager Na, actually when I heard this news at the beginning, I had the same expression as you are looking at me now. I don’t believe the words of the Minister of Public Relations.”

"But this is the fact. Whether we believe it or not, it has happened."

"Indeed, this incident is too coincidental."

Na Yuanliang looked into Lu Zimo's eyes and pondered for a moment, then glanced at the food in front of him and said: "Manager Lu, Ji Xing, think about it, will this matter be related to Vice President Qin who didn't say hello to Mrs. Xu?" Leaving Hanzhong has a connection."

Lu Zimo didn't speak, and Najixing said with certainty before thinking about it for a minute: "Second Uncle, I think, including Shen Yunfeng, these two incidents are caused by Mrs. Xu behind the scenes."

"They want to put our branch in trouble by selling fake goods in an auction house, and then achieve the goal of annexing the Hanzhong branch at the lowest cost."

"Second uncle, I suggest you contact Vice President Qin now, communicate with him my point of view just now, and listen to his thoughts."

"Alternatively, you can send an email directly to Director Huo and report the results of the discussion between the three of us to Director Huo so that he can make a decision."

Na Yuanliang raised his head and glanced at the indignant Naji Xing, smiled lightly, then looked at Lu Zimo and asked: "Manager Lu, what do you think of Deputy Manager Na's opinion just now?"

Lu Zimo thought for a while and said, "Director Na, as you said just now, if we don't send the fakes to the auction stage, whether it's Shen Yunfeng or the wealthy Xu family, they have no chance to pose a threat to us."

"Besides, we haven't received notification from the mysterious guest yet, so we can't just conclude that the blue and white porcelain vase that Shen Yunfeng identified as a fake, and that you and Deputy Manager Na identified as a treasure, are fakes."

"Perhaps, the results of the appraisal by Director Na and Deputy Manager Na are correct this time. We are just worrying unfounded here."

Na Yuanliang smiled faintly, waved to Lu Zimo and Naji Xing, picked up the chopsticks and said, "I hope it will be like what you said, Manager Lu."

"Come on, after talking for so long, I guess you are already hungry, so just eat something with me, an old man."

Najixing hurriedly got up and said, "Second Uncle, the food is getting cold, I'll go and heat it up for you to eat."

Na Yuanliang smiled noncommittally, took a handful of celery with chopsticks, brought it to his mouth and chewed it slowly, put down his pants and sighed, "I have heard people here say before that the winter in the northwest is... One after another, brought about by big or small autumn rains."

"Now, it's not winter yet, why has the weather become so cold?"

"I hope that after the autumn rain tonight, tomorrow's weather will be warmer. Alas, once people get older, they start to worry about gains and losses."

Lu Zimo didn't say anything, and went to heat up with the sad-looking Najixing with the boxed lunch.

Looking at the backs of the two young men, Na Yuanliang slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand, slowly leaned back on the chair, exhaled a long breath of stale air in his chest, looked at the autumn rain pattering on the glass outside the window, fell into a meditation.

Xu's headquarters building and the chairman's office are brightly lit.

The pattering autumn rain kept falling on the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows, leaving crooked water stains.

Xu Shiyi, the director of Xu Company, stood in front of the window, his eyes looking into the distance without focus, and the white smoke of the cigar curled between his fingertips.

When the knock on the door sounded, Xu Shiyi had already sat back on the boss chair.

As he uttered the word "in", a young man in his 30s opened the door and walked in.

Xu Shiyi raised his hand and motioned for the man to sit opposite him.

After the young man sat down, he first put a small box in his hand on Xu Shiyi's desk, and then said: "Chairman, according to the information I got, the entire Hanzhong branch of Caltex Auction House, including Na Yuanliang, before this blue and white porcelain vase appeared, it was like a time bomb, putting everyone in the Hanzhong branch at risk."

"Preliminary estimates, after handling the refund of the bronze Buddha, the Hanzhong branch will end up losing money and making money through this autumn auction. The last straw for Yuanliang and others."

Xu Shiyi raised his hand and gently stroked the small wooden box in front of him, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

After a while, he looked up at the young man and said, "Except for you, the only people who know about this matter are a few directors on the board of directors. Therefore, I hope you will keep this matter in your stomach."

"As for the promise I made to you, I will fulfill it after Xu completes the acquisition of Caltex Auction House's Hanzhong branch."

The young man smiled and said, "I trust the chairman."

Xu Shiyi looked at the young man and pondered for a while, then said: "During this time, if possible, you can ask the colleagues in the Hanzhong branch in private to see how many people are willing to stay. It's over, and I will report the situation. It’s also good for the HR department to do all the preparations in advance.”

The young man nodded and said yes.

After dismissing the young man, Xu Shiyi opened the small wooden box and took a look at the blue-and-white porcelain bottle inside, then casually put the wooden box and the blue-and-white porcelain bottle into the bookcase behind the boss's chair.

He lit another cigar and took a slow puff. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass, looked in the direction of Xu's Villa, and said to himself: "The old man is still one step ahead and thinks further than me."

"The Hanzhong branch of Caltex Auction House was hit hard by this. Those other auction companies who had entered the Hanzhong antique market before would definitely feel that even an auction group as large as Caltex Auction House would be defeated, and they would definitely re-evaluate the current situation in the Hanzhong antique market. The plan to open an auction company in Hanzhong, but ah, the old man chose to go against the current and choose to restart negotiations with Caltex Auction House Hanzhong branch at this time."

"Now it seems that I didn't throw out this blue and white porcelain vase when the bronze Buddha incident was fermenting, and dealt a fatal blow to the Hanzhong branch. I was actually keeping the fire for Xu."

"Haha, now it depends on whether Wanzhou can recruit a general for my Xu family who can take charge of the Hanzhong branch."

"The Hanzhong Branch has already opened up the market. It is just the right time for Xu to enter now. There is no need to do the preparatory work of sizing up, which invisibly saves Xu a lot of manpower, material and financial resources."
