Chapter 342 Playing the Elder Card_1

```

Qingyang is the ancestral land of the Hao family, a porcelain sect of the Ancient Appraisal Association, and also a major taxpayer locally, naturally with considerable wealth.

As the host of this treasure appraisal conference, the Hao family had vacated the best hotel in Qingyang, the Qingyang Grand Hotel, exclusively for the accommodation of the guests in attendance.

Xiao Ming and others walked into the hotel lobby, and just as they showed their invitations to the reception and received their room cards, someone called out to him from behind.

"Ah! It really is Xiao, long time no see!"

The man had a head full of white hair, was dressed in a grey mandarin-buttoned linen robe— the standard "master" attire. But his hurried steps and enthusiastic demeanor ruined the effect.

Xiao Ming was startled for a moment before he remembered and quickly went to greet him, "It turns out to be Old Mr. Fang, hello, hello! Are you also here for the treasure appraisal conference?"
