The magnificence around him also made him gain some knowledge, and then the staff brought Bai Ning to a seat in the middle of the front row.
"Sir, this is your place."
After the staff introduced this, Bai Ning nodded naturally, and then sat down here. He has never participated in an auction before, but he also wants to see what an auction is like.
But the auction hadn't started yet, but Bai Ning suddenly heard a rush of footsteps coming from the door. He turned his head and found that it was the staff members who were walking towards him in a hurry. The staff, as if seeing some great savior, rushed to Bai Ning's side.
He bent down and whispered a few words in Bai Ning's ear. Hearing these words, Bai Ning suddenly felt a little puzzled.How could it be possible that someone outside said they wanted to see him.
I came to participate in this auction this time, but no one told me, how could anyone know him if he was the only one?
But it is impossible for the staff to lie to Bai Ning, so Bai Ning had no choice but to follow the staff to the door. When he saw that the person standing at the door was Bai Ning, he suddenly felt speechless. Isn't this just last night? The old beggar who invited him to dinner?
On the contrary, the old beggar acted as he should. He stood by the door and waited for Bai Ning not to give up. Seeing this situation, Bai Ning had no choice but to walk over. When the beggar saw Bai Ning, Immediately, a smile bloomed on his face and he walked up.
"I said, old man, what do you want to do? I'm participating in the auction right now. Can't we wait until the auction is over?"
Hearing Bai Ning helplessly say this sentence, the old man was neither angry nor annoyed, his face was full of energy.
"auctions?"
"Yes."
Bai Ning was helpless, the old man clapped his hands when he heard Bai Ning say this, and then he spoke to Bai Ning again, what he said almost made Bai Ning's jaw drop.
"That's great. I haven't been to this place to participate in an auction since I grew up. It just so happens that you can go in. Why don't you bring me in with you. I also want to see what it looks like inside."
Why, when the old man uttered these words, not only Bai Ning, but even the security guards and staff present were shocked, and then a security guard really felt a little angry. Through the words and phrases just now, she also Knowing that this old man actually doesn't know Bai Ning at all.
It's not even Bai Ning's relatives, but now this upright appearance is really annoying, and then the security guard opened his mouth to the old man, his tone full of accusations.
"I said, old man, how can you be so shameless? Rich people come to such high-end places. Wouldn't it be a joke for you to go in as a beggar? Besides, he doesn't know you before. How can you pull him down?" Old-faced people, I don’t think there are more bad people in this world, but that the bad people are getting old!”
Hearing what the security guard said, the old man became angry from embarrassment. He rushed up and punched the security guard on the head with a curse in his tone.
"How can you talk to me, you brat? Are you still capable at such a young age? Do you understand respecting the old and loving the young?"
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Bai Ning felt helpless and quickly went up to them to persuade them to fight. This old man is really too paranoid. It might not end well if he drives him away now. Afterwards, Bai Ning still nodded to these people present. Nodding, he agreed to the old man's request.
"Okay, old man, I can take you in, but you have to promise me that you must abide by the rules of the venue after entering, and you must not make any loud noises, understand?"
"That's for sure, am I such an unreasonable person? I'm still making loud noises in the venue, how is that possible?"
The old man happily agreed, but what he said made Bai Ning a little dubious, but there was nothing he could do, after all, he had already agreed to the old man, and then Bai Ning still took the old man into the venue and returned to his seat.
Seeing Bai Ning, the few people around brought an old man over. They immediately looked at the old man with disgust, and immediately moved away from the old man.
The old man didn't care about these people's behavior. Instead, he sat in his seat leisurely, looking very happy. Seeing him like this, although Bai Ning said he had no choice but to let him go The auction is over, and the auction will begin immediately.
The lights on the auction stage were flickering.

"This is an authentic work by Yan Zhenqing, and the starting price is [-] yuan."

From the appearance alone, it is obviously eroded by the years, and it is not easy to be passed down to the present. It looks very cute, and someone present immediately began to add money.
"20."
"50."
……
The price also rose with each of them shouting, but just when Bai Ning was about to hold up the price tag, the old man beside him suddenly muttered something.
"What? I thought that all the paintings sold in such a high-end place are real paintings, but why use a fake calligraphy and painting to fool people?"
Hearing what the old man said, Bai Ning also felt helpless in his heart. The old man didn't understand anything, so he pretended to be an expert here. However, Bai Ning was willing to explain to the old man the calligraphy and painting in front of him, and then he started talking to the old man. He closed his mouth, pointed to this calligraphy and painting and explained it to him.
"Old man, you don't know this, right? This is the authentic work of Yan Zhenqing, a great calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty. Have you never heard of Yan Zhenqing?"
