Chapter 0082 - News from Hong Kong
"If you can find the Midnight Black Lotus in three days, it shouldn't be a big problem. If this time is exceeded, even if the gods come, there will be no way to return to the sky. Chen Fei said without thinking.
"Really?"
Old Xun stroked the white beard that was not very obvious on his chin, turned on the speakerphone button on the phone, and asked Dong Shuxian, who was beside him, "Ms. Dong, I don't know what you just said about the midnight black lotus...... Where is this thing now?"
"That's, that's right, my husband Yaoyang called me just now. It is said that at a Grade A auction on the black market in Hong Kong, there is news about the Midnight Black Lotus mentioned by Dr. Chan earlier. Its characteristics are almost the same as those touched. Dong Shuxian knew that Chen Fei was also listening, so she immediately deliberately said loudly.
"Isn't that the highest grade in the Hong Kong black market?" said the old man as if he remembered something.
"That's right, all the auctions recognized on the black market in Hong Kong are divided into four grades: A, B, C, D. Among them, the D-grade auction is the lowest level, belonging to the starting price of 100,000 yuan, and the first-grade auction is the highest level, which is usually rare to see one in two or three years, and belongs to the super high-end and sub-first-class auction with a starting price of hundreds of millions!" It seemed that she heard the explanation of the old man, and seemed to be afraid that Chen Fei would not know, so Dong Shuxian quickly told the information she knew.
"A super high-end auction with a starting price of hundreds of millions of dollars? But when did it start?" came Chen Fei's interested voice from the other end of the phone.
"Tomorrow night!" Dong Shuxian heard this and immediately spoke.
"Shuxian, prepare your plane tickets immediately, and we will go to Hong Kong tomorrow morning. Yaoyang should be able to get the ticket for that auction, right?" Dong Wencheng, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke, and his tone was very resolute.
He is the eldest son in the family, and he is also the hope of Old Man Dong from childhood to adulthood, so how much effort has been spent on him? Naturally, the relationship between the two fathers and sons is very deep. Although people will eventually die, and the current situation of Old Man Dong is indeed hopeless, he can be a child and a real filial son, of course Dong Wencheng can't accept it like this.
So when he heard that the auction, which might be related to his father's hope for healing, was going to be held tomorrow night, he did not hesitate to leave everything he was doing and wanted to rush to Hong Kong to win hope for his father's return.
"Yaoyang said, don't worry about the admission ticket, it's just that you ...... big brother" Dong Shuxian nodded hesitantly, looking at her own brother and stopping.
"Secretary Dong, with your current status, if it is not really necessary, it is better not to go to the black market. At this moment, the plain words of the old man were like cold water poured on Dong Wencheng's body, which made him feel a thrill, and suddenly sounded the routine post notice he received when he took up the post of secretary of the provincial capital city.
"But ......" Dong Wencheng suddenly fell into a dilemma and struggled.
"Secretary Dong, otherwise, let me go to Hong Kong for a walk on your behalf. Don't say it, I've never stepped out of Jiangnan Province when I'm so big. At this moment, Chen Fei's enthusiastic voice came from the phone, which suddenly made Dong Wencheng's originally struggling face instantly surprised and excited.
"Dr. Chen, do you mean it really?"
Dong Wencheng had a feeling of disbelief and confirmed. If Chen Fei was really willing to go on his behalf, it would be the best and most suitable decision, after all, no matter what, Chen Fei was the person who was most familiar with Midnight Black Lotus, much better than him, a layman who didn't know anything.
"Of course it's true. It was a super high-end auction with a starting price of hundreds of millions, and it would be a pity if you didn't see the world. Chen Fei was really interested, and his eyes flashed with a hint of essence. Anyway, he has resigned now and is at home, and there is space all day long, how can he not go to see such a big scene?
I have to say that people have a side of yearning upstream, and from the perspective of human nature, it is a kind of transcendent obsession and resilience. After all, that's too tempting!
"Okay, Mr. Chen, I'll send someone to pick you up right now. Dong Shuxian immediately said when she heard this. Although she is not in Hong Kong now, she is still accompanied by a large group of Chen family members, who can solve problems and deal with miscellaneous matters for her at any time, so it is naturally quite simple to pick up someone.
"Don't be in such a hurry, anyway, the auction won't start until tomorrow night. Let's book the ticket first, and send me a short message about the departure time in advance, and I'll estimate the time myself. But Chen Fei said so.
"Well, that's good, Mr. Chen, I'll hang up the phone first. Dong Shuxian was stunned when she heard this, and before she could reply, Dong Wencheng, who was standing beside her, quickly opened her mouth and hung up the phone.
"Brother......" Dong Shuxian was still in a trance at the moment, I don't know if it was because she didn't expect that her father was already so sick and dangerous, but Chen Fei on the other side of the phone still didn't look anxious, which made her feel a little angry in her heart.
"Shuxian, do you know that you almost made a big mistake just now?" However, Dong Wencheng ignored her stunned expression and said with a serious face.
"Big mistake, what big mistake?" Dong Shuxian was a little confused when she heard this.
"Don't think I don't know what you were thinking just now, but luckily you didn't show it, otherwise...... Shuxian, you have to make it clear that now we are begging Dr. Chan to see my father, not him begging us. If Dr. Chen is unhappy because of your mistake, where will we find a second doctor to see Dad?"
I don't know if there is really a difference between people, they are also two people in high positions, but Dong Wencheng and Xiao Qianrang's thinking is completely different. He clearly and clearly understands that he is the one who asks for help, so the so-called identity, status, and high profile should be able to afford to let go, and give the other party the trust and respect they deserve.
If the Xiao family had such a high correct ideological consciousness as Dong Wencheng and Secretary Dong, how could they still feel sorry for their children day by day, but they were still thinking about how to test Chen Fei and force him to comply. Typical self-inflicted masochism, don't live!
"Brother, I know it's wrong, I won't do it again in the future!" Dong Shuxian heard her eldest brother's words, and she was also in a cold sweat at the moment, yes, if she really angered the other party because of her own little emotions and let it go, then she would become the culprit who killed her father's hope for treatment.
If that's the case, I'm afraid she won't forgive herself.
"Elder Xun, our brother and sister were so excited just now, I'm sorry. After being excited, Dong Wencheng suddenly remembered that the old man who had made a special trip from the capital was still there, for fear that the other party would feel cold because of their brother and sister's actions just now, and he was unhappy, so he hurriedly apologized.
"Secretary Dong doesn't have to be like this, and Xun is not such a cautious person. Besides, Mr. Dong can have such a blessing, which can be regarded as his creation!" However, the other party shook his head with a smile.
After finishing speaking, he directly picked up the small medicine box on the side, arched his hand towards Dong Wencheng with a light smile, and turned around and said, "Since this is the case, then Xun will take the first step." There is no need to persuade the two of you, I didn't reserve much time for this time, and the old chief's health has been a little sick recently, so I have to rush back as soon as possible. ”
Seeing that the old man was leaving, Dong Wencheng's brother and sister reflexively wanted to persuade him, but when they hadn't spoken yet, the old man who was carrying the small medicine box had disappeared, and Dong Shuxian, who was so frightened that she didn't come back to her senses, was taken aback again.
"Brother, he, he, why is he gone?" Dong Shuxian stammered.
"Leave that alone, go ahead and book your flight. Tomorrow at noon or in the afternoon. Dong Wencheng glanced at the slightly open door and opened the topic.
Of course, he knew that the other party was qualified to become the personal medical practitioner of the old man's family, and naturally he was not an ordinary person, and if he denied it, he would not be able to understand the things in the circle of ancient martial artists so clearly. The answer is obvious.
"Is there a black market in Hong Kong?"
And just as the Dong family's villa became busy, dozens of meters away, on a leafy tree, a voice sounded a little evil.
I saw a man who was 1.8 meters tall but extremely thin like a ghost, standing quietly on the branches of the big tree, blocked by the lush foliage. He was wearing a black roll-neck sweater, slender black trousers, and his whole body was black, but his exposed skin looked extremely pale, as if he had blood loss, and he looked very, very oozing.
"This old guy is finally dying, but don't give up halfway. Hey, Four, can you hear me? Tell someone to do it in Hong Kong, I don't like people stirring things up. ”
"Hmm. ”
Hong Kong is one of the most important special administrative regions in China, east of the Pearl River estuary, along the coast of the South China Sea, adjacent to Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Pearl River and other cities.
The whole territory of Hong Kong consists of three major areas: Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula and the New Territories. With a total area of about 1,100 square kilometers, the population density is extremely high enough to rank among the top five in the world.
In addition, Hong Kong is also the third financial center after New York and London, collectively known as "Port of Newlen", and enjoys a high reputation in the world. It is an important shipping hub and one of the most competitive cities in the international and Asia-Pacific regions, and has ranked first in the world in the economic freedom index for 21 consecutive years.
Of course, Hong Kong is also known as the 'Pearl of the Orient' and the 'Shopping Paradise' in the Asia-Pacific region...... It has always been famous for important key terms such as good public security, free economy, and sound law. It is also one of the regions with the most developed economy and the highest standard of living in the world.
"Is this Hong Kong?"
Sitting in the first-class cabin of the flight from Jiangnan Province to Hong Kong, Chen Fei looked down on this world-class metropolis from the window, and for the first time felt deeply shocked. It's like dreaming in a trance that the world where the master of the cultivation realm rose out of nowhere...... The mighty South China Sea, with its turbulent waves, guards Hong Kong, the brilliant Pearl of the Orient in the south of the motherland, and the modern high-rise buildings rising from the ground, like steel giants, are surrounded by clouds and mist at their tops, and the world-famous International Commerce Center!
Under the blue sky and white clouds, Hong Kong, an international metropolis, is shrouded in an unimaginable vitality, as if it contains the truth of heaven and earth, and Chen Fei can even clearly feel that there is a majestic momentum hidden in this international metropolis city. Even with his current strength at the peak of Qi cultivation, it seemed insignificant and extremely small in the face of that momentum.
