Chapter 938 Bidding Xia Wenjie smiled: "It's been almost a year. ” "yes, I haven't seen you in almost a year."
Tang Chenguang sighed a lot and said: "A year ago, we were still the Audit Bureau, and now we are the Audit Department.
After a pause, he changed his words and said, "The minister is now holding a video conference, Wen Jie, I will take you to familiarize yourself in the headquarters." ” "Then it's going to trouble Director Tang."
"Hey, we're all old colleagues, so we don't have to be so polite."
In terms of administrative level, Tang Chenguang is much higher than Xia Wenjie, but he also knows that Xia Wenjie has a close relationship with Li Zhenshan, so in front of him, Tang Chenguang does not have any official structure, and his attitude is very modest.
There are many departments in the audit department, in addition to the general office, there are also a series of departments such as internal affairs supervision, personnel training, economic crime investigation, anti-corruption and bribery investigation, information and communication, legal affairs, etc., each department has a supervisor and deputy director, some people are known to Xia Wenjie, but most of them are not known to him.
Gege and Yage followed Xia Wenjie around, and just remembering people's names made their brains memorize, let alone going to the right seat again.
After walking around the audit department, Tang Chenguang said with a smile: "Wen Jie, I heard that the minister said that you were injured, and the injury is not light, so you can go back to the hotel to rest later." ” Xia Wenjie nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Director Tang, there are many places that sell antiques here in Beijing, right?"
"Why, Wen Jie, are you still interested in antiques," Tang Chenguang asked with a smile.
Xia Wenjie said with a smile: "I have nothing to do, but I also like to have fun." ” Tang Chenguang sighed, rubbed his chin and said: "Antiques, Shilihe and Panjiayuan are fine, but, Wenjie, the water in antiques is deep, it is not easy to buy real goods, if you are really interested, it is best to find an expert to follow you to shop." ” Xia Wenjie shook his head and said, "I don't know the place in Beijing, where can I find an expert?"
Tang Chenguang said: "Then go to the auction house to have a look, the price is definitely more expensive than the market, but the antiques sold by the auction house have appraisal certificates, which can basically ensure that they are genuine."
There are a lot of auction advertisements in the newspapers these days, and many auction companies are holding autumn auctions. ” Xia Wenjie listened carefully, and when Tang Chenguang finished speaking, he said with a smile: "I know, thank you Director Tang." ” "You're welcome."
When it was almost noon, Xia Wenjie said goodbye to Tang Chenguang and went to Cai Zhenyu's office again, he sat in it for less than ten minutes, Cai Zhenyu answered three phone calls, seeing that he was busy with work, Xia Wenjie didn't bother much, got up to say goodbye to Cai Zhenyu, and returned to the hotel with Gege and Yage.
At lunch, Xia Wenjie asked Gege to buy a copy of the day's newspaper and look through the advertising pages inside.
Tang Chenguang is really right, there are indeed many auction companies in the newspaper holding autumn auction conferences, and the auction items are also varied, including jewelry, fur luxury cars, and of course, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
Seeing Xia Wenjie look carefully, Gege and Ya Ge glanced at each other, and the latter asked, "Brother Jie, you really want to buy antiques."
"yes."
Xia Wenjie's eyes fell on the newspaper, and he said without raising his head.
"Brother Jie didn't have the habit of collecting antiques before," why did you have to buy antiques when you came to Beijing?
Xia Wenjie smiled, put down the newspaper, dotted his finger on it, and said, "There is a special auction of authentic paintings and calligraphy by famous artists this afternoon, and when we finish eating, we will go over and have a look." ” Gege and Song of Songs invariably showed helplessness, not understanding what Brother Jie's sudden nerves were.
Long story short, after lunch, Xia Wenjie took Gege and Yage to the auction house.
This auction company is a well-known and large company in Beijing, and the auction venue is very large, and there are many customers who come to bid.
When walking towards the venue, Xia Wenjie said to Yage: "When the auction comes, you look at my signal, and if I ask you to raise your cards, you will raise your cards."
"Xia Wenjie is an auditor, and his identity is relatively special, so he is not suitable for participating in auctions.
Song of Songs first nodded, and then asked curiously, "Brother Jie, why did you signal me to raise the card?"
Xia Wenjie knocked his forehead with a smile.
Seeing this, Song of Solomon understood, nodded and responded, "I know, Brother Jie" When he sat down, Xia Wenjie motioned for Gege and Yage to sit in the middle position, he walked to the front seat by himself, and sat down in the most corner of the place, he looked back and saw that Gege and Yage could see him, and he was relieved.
By the time the seats were almost seated, the auction began.
Xia Wenjie didn't pay attention to the opening remarks and a few calligraphy and paintings, and the reactions of the customers below were also a lack of interest, five calligraphy and paintings, only two were auctioned off at a low price, and the other three were unsold.
When the sixth calligraphy and painting of the auction is taken out, even if Xia Wenjie, a layman, comes to see it, his eyes can't help but light up, the picture scroll is a peach tree, the painting style is strong, lifelike, and there are poems next to it.
This painting is the work of Wu Changshuo, a famous artist in the late Qing Dynasty, named Qiankun Shuoguo, and the starting price is 1.5 million.
As soon as the auctioneer shouted out the reserve price, someone raised a sign below, the minimum amount of each price increase for this painting is 100,000, and someone raised a card, which is 1.6 million.
The auctioneer pointed to the middle-aged man holding the card, and said excitedly: "1.6 million This gentleman bids 1.6 million" Before he finished speaking, a girl sitting in the first row and Xia Wenjie was three people apart raised the sign in her hand.
The auctioneer shouted: "One million seven hundred thousand this lady bids a hundred" Xia Wenjie glanced at the girl on the side, she didn't look very old, she was wearing a professional suit, she looked very mature and capable.
Xia Wenjie smiled indifferently, raised his hand, and knocked on his forehead.
After staring at his Song of Songs, he immediately held up the sign in his hand. "1,800,000" The first middle-aged man raised the sign again, and then there were people around who raised the card, and the bidding price continued to rise, and soon, a pair of calligraphy and paintings with a low price of 1.5 million yuan had been asked for 3.2 million yuan.
However, at this price, there are still many people who are willing to continue to increase the price.
Gege was secretly speechless, and whispered to the Song of Songs beside him: "These people are crazy, it's just a broken painting, is it worth millions?"
Ya Ge also felt the same way, she subconsciously looked at Xia Wenjie who was sitting in the corner in front of her, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Brother Jie was not confused, and did not continue to knock on his head to let himself increase the price.
In Xia Wenjie's eyes, this calligraphy and painting looks good, but it is just good, let him spend millions to buy it, and he doesn't want to be the wrongdoer.
The painting soon reached 4 million, and there were only three people left who insisted on holding up the sign, one was the first middle-aged man to ask the price, the other was a young woman sitting in the front row with Xia Wenjie, and the other was a young man in a suit and leather shoes about 30 years old.
Xia Wenjie didn't want to participate in the auction anymore, and was happy to watch the excitement from the sidelines, when his mobile phone vibrate.
He picked up the Bluetooth headset in his pocket, leaned to the side, connected the phone, and whispered, "Hey" "Is it Brother Jie?"
Qin Zhen's voice came from the microphone.
"Hmm."

Xia Wenjie replied softly.
"Brother Jie, Zheng Guoyan called me just now and said that Brother Jie lent him another 50 million" "Yes."
"Brother Jie, we have lent him a large amount of money before, and he hasn't paid off the last account, and this time he has to take 50 million, really when we are in the bank with so much money, even the bottomless pit will be filled."
Xia Wenjie sighed secretly, subconsciously knocked his forehead, and whispered: "This is what I mean, you just do it." ” His Bluetooth headset was hanging on the left side of his head, while Song of Songs and Gege were sitting on his right side, and they didn't see Xia Wenjie answering the phone, but they both saw him knocking on his forehead.
Isn't it, Gege, the eyeballs almost flew out of their sockets, this broken painting has been called five million, Brother Jie even had to slap him and rubbed his eyes hard, and looked closely, that's right, Xia Wenjie was indeed knocking on his forehead.
He sighed softly and looked at Yage helplessly, who also looked helpless and puzzled, and finally gritted his teeth ruthlessly and held up the sign in his hand.
Seeing that someone was raising a sign to bid again, the auctioneer raised his hand to the Song of Solomon as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and excitedly shouted: "Five million three hundred thousand This beautiful lady bids five million three hundred thousand."
Almost all the people present turned their heads to look at the Song of Solomon.
Especially the middle-aged man, the girl and the young man, originally it was just the three of them competing for this painting, but they didn't expect to suddenly kill halfway through.
The three of them all frowned, and the middle-aged man lifted the sign in his hand upward, and finally shook his head and gave up, resting the sign on his lap, and sighed faintly.
The young man was also similar to a middle-aged man, and after thinking about it, he finally chose to give up.
The young woman looked back at Song of Songs and held the sign in her hand high again.
"Five million four million" As soon as the auctioneer's words came out, Ya Ge immediately held up the sign again, the reason was very simple, Xia Wenjie was still knocking on his forehead, obviously signaling her to continue bidding and not stopping.
"Five and a half million, this lady bid another five and a half million, it seems that this bidding is completely between two beautiful and generous young ladies," the auctioneer is most willing to see this situation, 1.2 million paintings, now the price is more than 5 million, just the commission is enough for him to make a lot of money.
The young woman frowned, hesitated for a moment, and held up the sign.
She had just lifted the sign, and before the auctioneer could speak, the Song of Solomon sign was raised again.
The auctioneer was stunned, and then said loudly: "Five hundred and six no, five million seven hundred thousand This young lady has already bid to five million seven million" This book was first published on the sweet potato network, please do not reprint:
