Chapter 194 Kidnapped!
Shen Longting gave a bitter smile, "Tianyuan Auction House has quite the backing, and it may not give me any special treatment."
"Their rules are very strict."
Tianyuan Auction House is a national chain of super auction houses, with strict rules that no one dares to break, because behind it stands a major family from Zhonghai—the Ling Family.
Zhonghai is an international metropolis, only Capital City can surpass it in Divine Land. And for the Ling Family to secure the position as the number one family in Zhonghai and to extend their auction business nationwide, their influence and prosperity are self-evident!
Qin Jiang furrowed his brows, "Should I go talk to them myself?"
Shen Longting replied, "There seems to be no other choice."
Qin Jiang thought it over, before at Tianyuan Auction House, he had seen Zhang Shuqing walking side by side with a woman, and that woman seemed to be a senior executive at Tianyuan Auction House.
Perhaps, to get the "Hundred Bell Flower," he might need to call on Zhang Shuqing\'s favor.
He dialed Zhang Shuqing\'s number.
On the other side, Zhang Shuqing\'s surprised and pleased voice came through, "Mr. Qin, what brings you to call me?"
Qin Jiang got straight to the point, "Miss Zhang, there\'s something I need your help with."
"Please tell me!" Zhang Shuqing didn\'t hesitate and responded directly, "If there\'s anything I can help with, I definitely will!"
After all, Qin Jiang was a great benefactor to the Zhang Family.
There was no way for Zhang Shuqing to refuse Qin Jiang\'s request.
Qin Jiang said, "I need your help to introduce me to the higher-ups at Tianyuan Auction House. Last time, I remember you were with a beauty, who is from the high levels of Tianyuan Auction House, right?"
Zhang Shuqing was momentarily stunned, then laughed, "Alright, I\'ll speak to her!"
Half an hour later, Zhang Shuqing made a call, "Mr. Qin, please come to Tianyuan Auction House for a chat!"
Qin Jiang set out for Tianyuan Auction House.
In front of the auction house, Zhang Shuqing stood elegantly at the door, waiting for Qin Jiang\'s arrival.
Upon seeing Qin Jiang arrive, she went up to greet him and welcomed him inside with a smiling face.
Just as he walked in, Qin Jiang saw a stunningly beautiful woman briskly walking out with several people.
It was Ling Qingxue.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
She smiled and said, "Shuqing, what\'s the hurry? I should have been the one to come out and welcome Mr. Qin personally."
Then, she extended her delicate hand and spoke politely to Qin Jiang, "Let me introduce myself formally, Ling Qingxue."
"Qin Jiang."
After the handshake, Ling Qingxue led Qin Jiang directly to the VIP room.
With a smile brimming with warmth, Ling Qingxue said, "Shuqing told me Mr. Qin is a very capable person, and it\'s rare for you to ask for something. This time it seems to be my honor."
Qin Jiang said, "Miss Ling is too kind. I\'m just an ordinary person. This time, I came to Miss Ling to request an exception, to give me something in advance, and the price is not an issue."
Upon hearing this, Ling Qingxue furrowed her brows, "What do you mean?"
"I need the Hundred Bell Flower," Qin Jiang said. "I urgently need it, and I can\'t wait seven days."
"Hundred Bell Flower?" Ling Qingxue pondered for a moment, then shook her head, "Mr. Qin, I would have had no problem doing you this favor. However, I\'m afraid it\'s not possible right now."
"Oh?" Qin Jiang asked curiously, "Why is that?"
"Just yesterday, a batch of items at Tianyuan Auction House was stolen, and their whereabouts are still unknown. The Hundred Bell Flower was among them!"
