Chapter 126 Wuji Group
It was a deep dreamless night.
Ye Chen sent Chen Yinuo to work the next morning.
In the Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
"Ye Chen, why don't you buy a Honda Fit for me? I'll drive and send Youyou to school in the future before I get to work. It's just on the way, and you don't have to trouble yourself so!" said Chen Yinuo.
"What's wrong? Don't you want me to give you a ride?"
Although they had not had a long-lost passionate night the night before, it could be considered that they had remedied their relationship to the proper extent.
Hence, Ye Chen dared to tease her.
"That's different. I just want you to sleep longer. What's more, you'll get very busy in the future. Could it be that I have to always take up your time?" Chen Yinuo shook her head and raised a query.
"I've yet to get very busy, right?" Smiling, Ye Chen said so.
"Stop joking around. I have to train up my driving skills sooner or later, right? I can't always ask you to chauffeur me around, can I..."
Hearing that, Ye Chen was relieved.
That was indeed reasonable.
"Then I'll let you drive this Mercedes-Benz G-Class. I'll buy another one!"
"Here you go again. Do we have to waste money like that? What's more, I'm nervous even if I have to drive a car of one hundred thousand or eighty thousand, let alone this Mercedes-Benz worth one or two million. To say the least, I'm just an employee in Hua Xing Commerce. Does it make sense if I drive a car worth one or two million to work?" Chen Yinuo rolled her eyes at him grumpily.
"Yinuo, tell me the truth. Have you ever considered resigning? Although I have rather a good relationship with Li Changfeng, it's still relying on someone else no matter what..." said Ye Chen.
"Let's talk about that when your Flawless Cream is on the right track, and I'm able to give a hand there!" After thinking about it for a while, Chen Yinuo said so.
"That'll work too!" Ye Chen appeared like he had considered that seriously as he gave a nod.
He understood Chen Yinuo, knowing that she could not lay idle.
She would not be able to take it if he asked her to come back and be a housewife, having nothing else to do.
"Then how about the car? Why don't we buy a better one? A Honda Fit is..."
Before Ye Chen could finish talking, Chen Yinuo immediately interrupted him. "Just get a Honda Fit. It's convenient for me if it's a small car. I'll practice my driving skills. If we want to buy a good one, we'll have to wait until sometime later. If not, I don't dare to drive that!"
He could not dissuade Chen Yinuo from doing that.
Hence, Ye Chen could only nod and give his approval.
After Ye Chen sent Chen Yinuo to the company, he immediately went to a Honda 4S Store to get a Honda Fit with the highest level of specification by paying in full amount.
But when he drove it back to the underground garage in Shanshuijian, he could not help but feel that there was something weird.
It was because there was no car cheaper than seven hundred thousand in the entire garage.
It also made the small Honda Fit exceptionally eye-catching.
At night, he went shopping with his wife and daughter in the supermarket.
They properly bought all the daily necessities that needed to be used in the new house.
However, he still did not get to enjoy a passionate night with his charming wife all that while.
It was not like Chen Yinuo was reluctant. On the contrary, she needed Ye Chen's love and adoration too as their relationship was rekindled and improved.
However, it was ruined by Youyou two to three nights in a row.
Youyou would always wake up whenever Chen Yinuo turned around and wanted to get out of bed.
That made Ye Chen extremely gloomy.
Weren't daughters their fathers' considerate and sensible children?
Three days passed in a flash.
Chen Yinuo seemed to have gotten used to life in Shanshuijian too.
Ye Chen sat on the shotgun seat for three days in the newly bought Honda Fit. After that, her driving skills had gotten better, and she had familiarized herself with driving a car.
Consequently, Ye Chen did not have to sit on the shotgun seat to keep her company and protect her on the fourth day.
For several days, Pang Jun, who had taken thirty million, did not contact Ye Chen at all. He did not call Ye Chen, let alone a text message.
He did not even give Ye Chen any kind of report on the progress.
If it was someone else, they would be panicked by now. They would think that Pang Jun had most probably run away with the money.
However, Ye Chen was not worried at all, let alone asking Pang Jun about that.
Although he did not ask Pang Jun about that, he did not lay idle during those few days.
He continued to use the names in his previous life. He planned and registered the trademarks for Teng Long Ltd. and Snow Beauty.
He then relied on Zhang Jingshan's connection, and the application procedures were completed smoothly one after another in just a few days.
In short, the next thing he would do was to wait for Pang Jun's call.
...
It was in the morning, and the weather was fine.
It was a five-star hotel called Four Seasons Hotel, and it was located in the center of the city.
There was a large poster being erected at the entrance, stating that the current Wuji Auction Tour was the eighth auction, and it was held in Jiang Zhou.
Ye Chen, who got out of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, looked at that poster. He could not help smiling faintly.
He had been waiting for that during the previous few days.
He was waiting for that auction.
He was waiting for that chance to take advantage of something. Besides, it was an opportunity to gain a great advantage.
He did not have an admission ticket, so he had to pay the organizer an admission fee of ten thousand even if he came in a Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
"Fuck! Brother Ye, how come you came here too?"
The auction was held on the thirty-ninth floor of the hotel.
The moment Ye Chen stepped out of the lift, he heard a scream.
Ye Chen subconsciously turned around and looked over. Who else could it be if it was not Zhang Jingshan?
"Why are you here too?"
Ye Chen could not help but ask in doubt when he looked at Zhang Jingshan, who had trotted over excitedly.
"Me? A friend of mine forcefully dragged me here. Unexpectedly, he left because of some kind of emergency not long after we came here, and he left me here all alone. At first, I wanted to enjoy the occasion since I had come. But after I stayed here for a while, I felt bored that I wanted to leave without waiting for the auction to start. After all, I've not much interest in the auction. I didn't expect that I would see you the moment I came out to take the lift!" Smiling, Zhang Jingshan explained to Ye Chen.
"Oh!" Smiling faintly, Ye Chen gave a slight reply.
"Brother Ye, what about you? Did you come with an admission ticket?" Zhang Jingshan hurriedly asked him.
"No. I happened to see that there's an auction here. I became curious, so I paid ten thousand admission fee to get in here!" Ye Chen smiled and said so.
"You even spent money? If I've long known that you're interested in auctions, I would get you some admission tickets. The threshold for this kind of thing isn't high, because the level of this kind of auction isn't high. There won't be anything good, so the high-end players won't come here. I didn't expect that this dumb organizer would ask for a ten thousand admission fee. Fuck! They're so fucking unscrupulous!" said Zhang Jingshan indignantly.
However, Ye Chen smiled in a non-committal manner.
Zhang Jingshan was indeed right. The level of that kind of auction was indeed not high, and there would not be many high-end players coming.
But it did not mean that there would not be anything good there.
During his previous life, the organizer was Wuji Group, and they held that national auction tour. At first, it was mediocre. It was hard to gain much attention from the upper class. However, Wuji Group and that auction tour became popular search queries without any warning not long after the end of the auction tour involving a total of ten auctions in ten cities.
It was because Wuji Group, who had deemed themselves the authority of treasure evaluation, were tricked. They were tricked by themselves.
Three auction items had failed to be auctioned out during the former nine auctions. It was not until the tenth auction, which was the last auction that those items were sold one by one.
It was nothing much. It could be considered very normal. But what drove people crazy was the fact that those three auction items were sold at a total price of less than three million at that time...
Soon after the auction, those three items from Wuji Auction were revealed to have an actual price of nearly a hundred million. What was more important was that the price of nearly a hundred million was just an evaluation of the items. If people started to inspect that seriously, the collection values of those items would be more than a hundred million.
After that incident was spread on the internet, some netizens joked that it was not a loss for Wuji Group at that time. That incident was equivalent to an advertisement for a million. At first, not many people knew of Wuji Group. But with that, the whole network knew of Wuji Group.
But only Wuji Group knew if it was a loss or not. It was because the authoritative reputation of Wuji Group, which was famous for treasure evaluation in the upper class, had suffered a defeat after that incident of being tricked.
After all, they claimed to be the authority in that aspect, but they overlooked their items. They auctioned out items worth nearly ten million or a hundred million at less than three million...
With that incident, how would the upper class dare to trust the authority of Wuji Group in treasure evaluation?
During his previous life, Ye Chen lamented when he read of such a piece of news on the internet in which Wuji Group had been tricked. He lamented that when misfortunes came, they came not in single spies but battalions.
However, God had brought him back to his previous life now.
How would he miss again the chance of taking advantage of the flaw that Wuji Group was about to expose?
However, he did not mind giving Wuji Group, that God of Wealth, a chance to save face even if he wanted to take advantage of that incident...
