Henry carefully observed the two people standing in front of the door. They seemed to be standing there casually, checking out women in the hall. However, both of them were leaning slightly toward the door.
This showed that they were guarding the door, and it was the most important thing on their minds.
Henry also found that their breath was in sync, which meant they practiced the same type of cultivation. So they were definitely masters of kung fu since average people didn't even have cultivation.
Henry found it very strange. If the stuff behind the door were the Loulan artifacts that would be auctioned, why would Alvin League sent out their own security? According to what was happening on the table, Enkidu Inc. had a relationship with the government, so the government should be taking full responsibility for the security, and Alvin League didn't need to be bothered. Unless...
Henry suddenly thought of something!
The Alvin League was trying to give away one artifact from Loulan ruins, and it couldn't be given to the government. So they planned to use the auction as the front to transfer the artifact to somebody else.
This was the only reason that Henry could think of why the Alvin League sent their own special security guards.
He did a recon and found out there was only one way to enter this room. No one could sneak into the room without alarming the two guards by the door. Henry didn't plan on breaking in.
With confusion, Henry decided to wait and see what Alvin League was up to.
The cocktail party before the auction wouldn't take long.
Before Ranjeet had enough to eat, the music turned down.
All the guests stopped chatting.
In the hall, the only noticeable noise was Ranjeet's chewing sound.
Waiters came in to set up the seating for the auction, and a curtain was drawn in the front of the hall.
All the chairs had reservation labels for each company, and each company had three to five chairs. Depending on how many people actually showed up for the auction, the waiters would adjust the number of the chairs.
Everyone was looking for their designated chair to sit down.
As one of the top business organizations of Orafield Province and even of the whole Yan Xia, the Lins Group was seated in the forefront.
He Clan, which just had an unhappy meeting with the Lins Group, was seated next to the Lins Group.
The seating arrangement was the representation of power and status.
Henry stopped Ranjeet's gulping and dragged him over to the seat.
"Prepare your nose. Tell me who carries the scent of your ancestors' grave."
"No problem," Although Ranjeet was off- beat in many things, he was somewhat reliable at work. When Henry gave him the task that involved his ancestors, for the first time, Ranjeet didn't mention that he hadn't had enough to eat.
Nadeen sat down beside Henry angrily.
She nudged her chair away from Henry.
In a short period of time, the majority of the chairs were taken. People kept showing up to fill the rest of the seats.
Henry noticed that many people smiled at him pleasantly. He knew it was because his chair was labeled the Lins Group.
