Marriage in crisis

When Shen Kuo heard me say I had photos, he immediately said excitedly, "Give me the information, so I can use it at any time."

"It's in Yang Bingqian's phone. I'll ask her to send it to you later!" I also have one in my phone, but my phone is broken.

Then I suddenly remembered, "Haven't we found Meng Yaocheng's hiding place yet? Your brother said that Ling Zhiyang will definitely take revenge, and the target must be Meng Yaocheng! After all, he won't be going back to Myanmar for a while!"

Shen Kuo shook his head. "We haven't found it yet, but it must still be in Qingcheng. However, if Ling Zhiyang starts looking for it, I'm afraid he will be more powerful than us."

We chatted until very late, and then we waited for Wei Qingchuan and his friends to come back. Unexpectedly, Uncle Rong came back with them.

I asked happily, "Uncle Rong, you didn't leave? I thought you left!"

Rong Pengcheng smiled and said, "Plans can't keep up with changes! We were all ready to go, but Rong Yu stopped us! He asked me to wait a bit, don't move yet!"

Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind, and I looked at Rong Pengcheng and asked, "Uncle Rong, does the old master like antiques and other things?"

Rong Pengcheng was startled, and paused for a moment, then thought for a moment before answering me, "How should I put it? Liking antiques is a habit of all Chinese in the upper class.

Having said that, it seems that ancient things will be considered a kind of Chinese culture. The older they are, the more valuable they are, and they are also a symbol of status.

Think about it, a family like the Xiang Rong family is known as the century-old Rong family. Of course, it is more than a century. If there are no decent old items, it would be a loss of dignity, don’t you think?

I think this custom is not only in the overseas Chinese community, but also in the wealthy circles in China!"

I really had no room to refute his words and could only nod in agreement.

"In China, there is indeed such a circle. What's worse, many people claim that they own a few old items just because they have collected them!" I said with a smile.

But he continued, "My grandfather, on the surface, doesn't have much preference for these things. But every year, he would buy back a few genuine collections. This is also a normal state of the Rong family. If the Rong family doesn't show up at such an auction, how can it have any weight! That means that this auction has no gold content and has not attracted the Rong family!"

I laughed, "It seems that the Rong family is really influential."

Uncle Rong said meaningfully, "It's quite influential."

"Are there many auctions like this overseas?" I asked, pretending to be curious and interested. "Is it also an activity of the upper class?"

"There are many auctions of this kind. Every year, several very convincing auctions are held in various places." Rong Pengcheng said, "Some old overseas Chinese do have a lot of rare treasures and valuable things in their hands."

I nodded, but didn't ask any more questions. After all, asking any more questions would be disrespectful to the Rong family. At the moment, I can't behave like this.

Sure enough, Rong Pengcheng asked me, "Are you interested in auctions?"

I felt a little guilty, so I quickly smiled and said, "No, it's not that. It's a well-known auction house under Ling Zhiyang. It's said to be doing very well, so I thought of asking about it."

In fact, I have participated in several auctions, but I couldn’t appreciate the items there, I didn’t understand them, and I lost interest in them.”

"You are telling the truth!" Rong Pengcheng looked at me, pondered for a moment, and then said, "You can try to ask your grandmother about this issue. It turns out that the most convincing branch of the Rong family is my aunt. Your grandmother donated many priceless treasures to the country when China was first established. My grandfather once talked about this."

"Oh?" I was shocked involuntarily. This was the first time I heard this news. I couldn't help but look at Wei Qingchuan.

He was discussing something with Shen Kuo and Chi Xi.

At this time, the third brother and Wen Zeqing also came to the west building.

We quickly dropped the topic.

I looked at them and smiled, and the third brother immediately asked, "What are you laughing at? You thought we were gone!"

"That's right! I thought you all had already gone to your respective positions." I told the truth, "Especially Uncle Rong, he said he was going to the new country today, so I thought you all had left too!"

Wen Zeqing said, "I'm going to Myanmar with Rong Yu."

"Are you going too?" I asked in surprise.
