Chen Tong did not return to Shangdu in the end, but instead found a job as an assistant broker in Pujiang as an art auction company.

Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang have only been in a new company for a month or two. Moreover, as returnees studying abroad, their positions in the company are relatively high. They cannot show their timidity. There are too many places to learn and digest, and they have no plans to leave Pujiang during the Spring Festival.

Chen Li also went back to Shangdu before the New Year. He stayed for a week and handled the accumulated things. He paid New Year's greetings to Luo Rongmin, Lin Hanxiu, Meng Xuede, Zhang Haoran and others in advance. He then took a plane back to Pujiang on New Year's Eve to celebrate the Spring Festival with Chen Tong, Zheng Bingyang and others.

Zheng Wenyuan, Zhou Bin, Qian Da, Gao Fengming, Yan Qiwei, and Xiao Hua finished their work before the New Year and almost left Pujiang by the last flight before the Spring Festival; while Zhao Chen and Ye Nanjia were on the winter vacation in the school and went directly to Yinghe Film and Television Base.

The new Sunshine Performing Arts Agency finally chose to register in Shangdu, with the purpose of relying on Zhongyuan Film and Television to develop the performing arts agency business. Zhao Chen and Ye Nanjia sometimes have to intern at Zhongyuan Satellite TV.

Since they are interested in this industry and do not want to just stay interested, they have too many things to learn - although the new Sunshine has 20% of Ye Nanjia's shares, Chen Li not only did not let Ye Nanjia directly intervene in the management of the agency, nor did he leave her a seat on the board of directors, but gave her three years to study and prepare.

Chen Li, Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang stayed in Villa No. 186 Ningcheng Road, 188, and the three of them lived. Chen Li also asked the driver to go home and reunite with his family. He felt a little deserted without the bustling past.

Although Chen Li stayed in Pujiang specially to accompany Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang to celebrate the Spring Festival, and although Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang's respective companies do not need to work overtime during the Spring Festival, they are racing against time to read materials and learn in order to adapt to their current work faster.

Chen Li served two aunts to eat and drink, and put on everything to wash clothes and clean. He seemed very leisurely. In addition, he was bored. On the second day of the Chinese New Year, Chen Li rolled the dumpling skin with noodles, chopped the vegetables and meat into fillings, and made a meal of vegetables and meat dumplings. At noon, Chen Tong took the disc of jade information to prepare to study in the imaging room. Chen Li couldn't help but say, "What can you learn when looking at pictures and video materials? Let's find a jade store to see the real thing..."

Chen Tong went to Jiashi Art Auction Company to apply for an assistant broker, and the classification is the commissioned auction business of jade and jade. Although Shen Jianhong liked to collect some jewelry and jade for a long time, Chen Tong had knowledge since he was a child, he was just a very ordinary hobby and had seen some treasures. The gap is still very big between professionals in real geology or jade forensic categories.

Although Pujiang is not the largest jade distribution center in the country, as the largest domestic economic center and largest economy, there has never been a shortage of high-end jade and jewelry sales venues.

Chen Li didn't want to stay at home during the Spring Festival holiday, so he made an excuse and pulled Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang out to go shopping in the mall. He said to Zheng Bingyang: "We are from the market. In addition, the marketing expenses invested by Xinchaorui last year were about 200 million yuan. Can the information sent to the new employees be better than my living textbook?"

"If you delay your precious time to go to a female star, how inappropriate would it be?" Chen Tong sat on the sofa, stretching her waist lazily, and did not forget to tease Chen Li. Seeing Chen Li grabbing the pillow and smashing it over, she jumped off the sofa and avoided it with a "giggle". Her white feet jumped around on the snow-white cashmere carpet.

At noon, Chen Li pulled Chen Tong, and Zheng Bingyang dried two bottles of red wine and couldn't drive. Chen Li gave the driver another vacation. The three of them put on their coats and walked along Ningcheng Road towards Huaihai Middle Road in the direction of Ningcheng Road.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Huaihai Middle Road was extremely lively and crowded. Chen Li took two girls to choose a jade specializing in selling jewelry and jade, and the level of the jade was relatively regular and went in to stroll around.

Chen Tong came here to compare the actual situation and learned it. He pulled a chair and sat in front of the counter. He asked the salesperson to sample the jade bracelets, jade pendants, pendants, ornaments and other jades at the counter to compare the quality. This jade shop is quite large in Pujiang, with not many diamonds, red and sapphires, but there are many varieties of jade, mutton fat white jade, southern red, turquoise, yellow dragon jade, and many other fine products.

Chen Tong came here with a learning attitude, and whenever there were good things, Chen Li and Zheng Bingyang followed him to appreciate them, and he was quite relish and didn't feel bored at all. Chen Li also wanted to pick two good-quality pendants and give them to Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang as New Year's gifts.

At first, I saw Chen Li, Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang walking in. His appearance and clothes were quite extraordinary. Several salesmen enthusiastically came over to recommend the exhibits at the counter, thinking that they could open on Chen Li and the others, but Chen Li, Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang took out the exhibits for a long time, but they had no intention of purchasing them at all. They slowly made the faces of several salesmen collapse, left Chen Li and the others and went to greet other guests.

In the end, there was only one girl left. Although she was a little impatient, even though her colleagues frequently gave hints, she still patiently accompanied Chen Li, Chen Tong and the others to pick up and introduce the exhibits, but she was a little perfunctory.

"Why are you here too?"

Hearing someone greeting behind him, Chen Li turned around and saw Yihua's vice president Qian Li, who looked sarcastic and mean, holding a middle-aged man in a suit and looking old, walking in from outside. Looking at Qian Li and the middle-aged man, they should be husband and wife.

Chen Li and Qian Li are not familiar with each other and don’t have any good feelings for each other. They suddenly met in the mall. He just smiled awkwardly and did not mean to be warm with this woman.

Chen Li ignored it, and the smile on his face was still very reluctant. However, Qian Li walked in, her eyes were full of confusion on Shen Tong and Zheng Bingyang's faces.

Perhaps it was confirmed that Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang did not recognize her, Qian Li held back the surprise in her eyes and walked over to see a few Nanhong sculptures on the counter. She said in a sharp voice: "Oh, you know how to pick some good things to please girls - this New Year's Day, Mr. Xiang knows that you are going to go shopping with the little girl, and try to please other girls so generously?"

Qian Li mistakenly thought that Chen Li was Xiang Qiu Ning's lover, and believed that Chen Li used Xiang Qiu Ning's money to please other girls at this time. She still remembered the revenge that Chen Li laughed at for fighting back in Huanglou, and couldn't help but speak sarcastic.

Zheng Bingyang, Chen Tong was puzzled after hearing this. He looked Qian Li with both eyes, but didn't know what she was talking about. He asked Chen Li in a low voice: "Do you know this woman?"

Chen Li shrugged, unwilling to pay attention to people like Qian Li, but Qian Li forced herself over and couldn't kick the person aside.

Qian Li picked up a Maitreya pendant full of persimmon red from the Nanhong exhibits placed on the counter, and held it in her hand and couldn't let it go. Seeing five or six people squeezed at the counter, two salesmen came over enthusiastically and vigilantly and introduced the Maitreya pendant from Nanhong.

In 2007, southern red agate was not yet popular. The quality of the persimmon red persimmon is only 100 or 200 yuan in the market.

The pendant that Qian Li was playing with was not bad in her hand, and her appearance was good, and she had no flaws. The price was only over 3,000 yuan, which looked pretty good. However, Chen Li thought that the pendant of this level was as a toy, not to mention giving it to Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang as a New Year gift. At this time, they asked the salesperson to take out these exhibits, but Chen Tong looked at the actual product to compare the quality of the southern red agate of different varieties.

Qian Li held the Nanhong Maitreya pendant in her hand for a while, then threw it back to the counter with disgust and said, "This kind of Nanhong can also coax the little girl who is just over 20 years old and has never met her. What better Nanhong agate in your shop? In addition to the quality, I also need master carvings?"

Qian Li was wearing a sable coat. Although her face was thin and not bloody, she still looked noble. The two salesmen who came over came over didn’t know what kind of grudges she had with Chen Li, but she was more like today’s big customer. The older salesmen said in her tone: “You look down on this Maitreya, but it is also a pendant with a very high personality in our store. These three customers entered the store for almost an hour and picked hundreds of them here. I don’t know if they didn’t like them or they think this one was too expensive and they didn’t want to buy it…”

The salesperson, who was a little older and in his thirties, impatiently sent the girl who had been coping with Chen Li and the others to shout out the manager, preparing to take out a few top-quality Nanhongs that had not yet been put in the display cabinet for Qian Li to choose.

"The living expenses given to you by Mr. Xiang won't be unable to afford such a Nanhong pendant to please girls, right?" Qian Li asked Chen Li with "concern" and spared no effort to imply that Chen Li had a unclear relationship with other women.

Seeing Zheng Bingyang lowering his head and looking at a piece of mutton fat jade buckle on the display cabinet, Chen Tong stared at him with curiosity. Chen Li was reluctant to slap Qian Li, the woman. Unexpectedly, during the Chinese New Year, he finally pulled Chen Tong and Zheng Bingyang out for a walk, but met such an annoying person, which was really unfavorable for the passing of the year.

"Let's go?" Chen Li annoyed people like Qian Li, especially Qian Li's eyes always looked at Zheng Bingyang's face in confusion. He might be full of speculation about what Zheng Bingyang had to do with Tang Xiao. He just wanted to avoid such a woman from far away, so as to avoid any monsters.

"Look at what good things they have." Chen Tong could hear that Qian Li's Xiang President should have pointed to Qiu Ning, but she couldn't understand Qian Li's so-called "living expenses" and other hints. She didn't know where Chen Li got such a weird and mean woman, but seeing that there was a better Nanhong agate in this store, she wanted to open her eyes.

"Two days are our President Zhao's birthday, and Mr. Zhao doesn't lack anything. We are currently subordinates and will definitely not accept the gifts. I just thought that a few of us would pick up gifts that Mr. Zhao would like to take a gift," Qian Lila said to Chen Li family-time, "We Mr. Zhao admire you. Please help us take a look, so that we won't be able to win our President Zhao's like if we give it away..."

At this time, the manager of the jade artifacts walked out of it. A woman with a rich charm was wearing a gray professional suit, her chest was bulging, and she was holding a narrow sandalwood box in her hand. When she opened it, she was a red ornament with a lotus branch shape.

This southern red ornament has more than 30 centimeters in length with branches and leaves. The lotus branches have dark brown-red leather, which is ancient in shape, while the flowers and leaves are flawless brocade-red.

This month, Chen Li also learned a lot of jade knowledge from Chen Tong. He knew that Nanhong agate was extremely rare. The larger the material, the more expensive the material, the more powerful it was. What's more, the more intelligent the carving work of this lotus branch Nanhong is very awesome. It can be seen that when merchants get the best Nanhong material, they will definitely find master-level carving workers to polish the best.

Even at Qian Li's level, good things can be seen at a glance. However, the net weight of such a lotus branch Nanhong has a net weight of more than 400 grams, but the price is more than 400,000 yuan. The price of the second-grade Nanhong agate is almost ten times that of the next-level Nanhong agate, which immediately made Qian Li feel difficult.

She wanted to recruit a few executives and give Zhao Rongrong a decent birthday gift, but she didn't want to get it so expensive.

"..." At this time, Qian Li's cell phone in her hand rang, and she glanced at Zheng Bingyang, stood out a little, and answered the phone and said, "Why are you so slow? I'm in Dingyutang Jade Artifacts, yes, you just turned over from the Daphne specialty store - by the way, do you have a cousin who looks particularly similar to you or a relative?"

When Chen Li heard the content of Qian Li answering the phone, he was about to explode. He wanted to pull Chen Tong now, but Zheng Bingyang was too late to escape in a panic. Tang Xiao was standing outside the store and looking inside in a black tweed coat.

Chen Li didn't expect that Tang Xiao did not return to Qingquan this Spring Festival but stayed in Pujiang, and even ran into him here.

When Tang Xiao suddenly saw Chen Li, his stunning smile made her beautiful face overflow, but her slender little hands were not excited yet. The next moment she saw Zheng Bingyang standing beside Chen Li and was stunned.

It was a coincidence today. Zheng Bingyang also wore a black woolen coat today, and also tied her long hair behind her shoulders casually. She had a beautiful face and clear water that made her look like twins. It was not a big mistake for Qian Li to repeatedly confirm that Zheng Bingyang did not recognize her, so she was sure that Zheng Bingyang was another girl, but she was also a thief. She did not indirectly ask who Zheng Bingyang was, but secretly urged Tang Xiao to come and meet her.

"Tang Xiao, am I here?" Qian Li called her over to Tang Xiaoyang's hand.
