After breakfast, Zhang Bin drove Yang Ming to Zhang Jiefang's company in a new car with a license plate. Because the key to the bank safe is in Zhang Jiefang's hands.
Zhang Jiefang was quite surprised that Yang Ming wanted to give such a precious jadeite to Liu Weishan as a birthday gift. Apart from being amazed, he also admires Yang Ming's personality. At his age, it's rare that he doesn't love money!
In fact, is it because Yang Ming doesn't love money? Who doesn't like money? It's just that money is nothing compared to friendship. It was precisely because of this incident that Zhang Jiefang was truly happy that Zhang Bing had found a friend like Yang Ming. He is sure that if his son encounters difficulties one day in the future, Yang Ming will definitely lend a helping hand.
Due to the importance of the matter, Zhang Jiefang had to rush to the bank in person, otherwise the bank could not just give the things to others. Zhang Jiefang carefully took the piece of jade out of the safe, packed it in the exquisite gift box prepared in advance, handed it to Yang Ming, and told Zhang Bin: "You must drive slowly, boy. Things are precious, don't bump them and break them!"
Zhang Bing and Yang Ming couldn't help but smile wryly after hearing this, isn't this too careful? But Zhang Bin still nodded in agreement.
Downstairs in the family area of Songjiang Engineering University, Yang Ming called Lan Ling and asked her to go downstairs with the invitation, and then the three of them went to the White Swan Hotel together.
At the entrance of the White Swan Hotel, all kinds of luxury and high-end cars were already parked. An ordinary business car like Zhang Bin was nothing at all.
Zhang Bing parked the car, and Yang Ming entered the restaurant with a gift. At the entrance of the restaurant, there are disciples of Liu Weishan who are responsible for receiving gifts and registering them. But because the jadeite in his hand was too precious, Yang Ming was afraid of any mistakes, so he decided to hand the gift to Liu Weishan himself.
Having learned the lesson from last time, Yang Ming had to be careful. Although Yang Ming didn't believe that Liu Weishan's disciples would covet the emerald without conscience, but knowing people and faces, this is emerald worth 2 million, so there is no guarantee that some people will not be tempted.
"Just leave the gift with me." A disciple of Liu Weishan named Hou Rui stopped Yang Ming's way and pointed to the gift box in his hand.
"No need, I will hand it over to Mr. Liu myself." Yang Ming shook his head and said.
"Mr. Liu is so busy, how can he have time!" Hou Rui saw that Yang Ming looked small and was wearing a student uniform, so he thought he was Liu Weishan's current student, so naturally he didn't think he could give any high-end gifts. Seeing that Yang Ming rejected him, he felt shameless and a little upset.
"Giving a gift doesn't waste any time." Yang Ming said lightly.
"It doesn't take much time? You give one, he gives one, and the banquet doesn't need to go on!" Hu Rui snorted coldly: "Hurry up, what's your name, I'll register for you."
"Why did he just hold the gift in his hand?" Yang Ming asked, pointing to a fat man who had just entered.
"Him? He is Mr. Yun of Yun's Jewelry, and the gifts he gave at least cost tens of thousands of yuan. Naturally, I have to give it to Mr. Liu in person!" Hou Rui said contemptuously: "Who do you think you are? How can you get along with me?" Do you compare with others?"
"My father is Zhang Jiefang from Zhang Family Jade, and I am his son! We are here on behalf of my father!" Zhang Bin, who hadn't interrupted, said suddenly. Of course he has heard of Yun's Jewelry. This is a very large local jewelry company, but its main business is jade and jadeite products. It always suppresses Zhang Jiefang in terms of business. When Zhang Bin heard that this guy can go straight in , Naturally refused to weaken the momentum.
"Oh? Zhang's Jade?" Mr. Yun also heard Zhang Bing's words, looked at Zhang Bing with some mockery, and said, "Heh, you guys are here to have a relationship with Mr. Liu too? But Mr. Liu has a very high vision. You still don't want to take out ordinary gifts and make yourself embarrassed!"
"Let's wait and see." Zhang Bing naturally knew what Yang Ming was going to give, how could Zhang Bing lag behind such a thing that made his family proud.
Hou Rui is also a member of the jade world, and has also heard of Zhang Jiefang of Zhang's Jade. Although Zhang Jiefang's company is not large, it is not comparable to him as a wage earner. He snorted coldly and released the three of them. went in.
Yang Ming looked at all this indifferently, he didn't want to make any publicity at first, his current identity didn't match this jadeite, so since Zhang Bing said so, Yang Ming saved a lot of effort. At that time, just say that it was sent on behalf of Zhang Jiefang.
Zhang Jiefang, Yang Ming, was also very grateful. Before Yang Ming made his fortune, he was just a poor friend of Zhang Bing. At that time, Zhang Jiefang was able to spend money to invite him to Yunnan, and then took him to gamble on jade. Judging from these alone, Yang Ming was grateful .
So, for a moment, Yang Ming thought about the pros and cons of the matter in his mind. I don't need Liu Weishan for the time being, but Zhang Jiefang can use it for his business. That being the case, why not go with the flow and send the jade as Zhang Jiefang, which can also help him get through Liu Lao's connections. I believe Liu Lao will definitely take care of Zhang Jiefang for his own sake.
Having made up his mind, Yang Ming decided to make a fool of Hou Rui, who is so stupid and looks down on others.
Liu Weishan's identity is very famous in the jewelry industry and academic circles, and he has many disciples. But the people who came the most today were those who were in the jewelry business. In addition to carving some jade, Liu Weishan's other identity is that he is a well-known connoisseur in the jewelry industry. Although there are fewer and fewer jade articles from Liu Weishan now, the jade that has been evaluated by him will increase in value instantly. So Liu Weishan is naturally the target of various jewelers.
The entire White Swan Hotel was taken over by Liu Weishan, and there were many vacant seats. Yang Ming, Zhang Bin, and Lan Ling just found a place to sit down. The birthday banquet has not started yet, and it is time for the guests to enter. Did not show up.
About 20 minutes later, an emcee of ceremonies came out from the backstage first, and the hall became quieter. Because as soon as the master of ceremonies came out, it meant that the birthday banquet was about to begin.
Sure enough, after a while, Liu Weishan came out with his wife accompanied by a young woman. However, when Yang Ming saw that young woman, he was obviously taken aback!
Indeed, women are beautiful, with a unique charm of mature women. But it wasn't these things that caught Yang Ming's attention. Even if Yang Ming was lustful, he wasn't lustful enough to open his mouth when he saw a beautiful woman.
What surprised Yang Ming was that this woman was actually Xiao Qing! How could she be with Liu Weishan? Yang Ming's mind was filled with question marks. Could it be that they are relatives?
Just when Yang Ming was startled, the master of ceremonies adjusted the microphone and handed it to Xiao Qing. Xiao Qing walked to the big stage gracefully, then smiled slightly and said to the audience: "Thank you for taking the time to attend father's birthday, my daughter is very grateful. Next, I announce that the birthday party will begin now."
After speaking, he bowed to everyone, then returned the microphone to the master of ceremonies, and retreated to Liu Weishan's side. With Liu Weishan's status, there is no need to speak in person at all, just waving and smiling to the people below is enough.
The master of ceremonies said many polite words of auspicious blessings, but Yang Ming didn't listen. What he couldn't imagine was that Xiao Qing was Liu Weishan's daughter? How can this be?
I only heard Liu Weishan mentioned that he had a son, but he didn't mention that he also had a daughter? Besides, Xiao Qing's surname is "Xiao" and Liu Weishan's surname is "Liu". How could they be father and daughter? Although, during a certain red period, many people changed their surnames. For example, the old man Fu Ming and his son Jia Zhiguo in "I Love My Family" do not have the same surname, but this is a rare case after all.
Next, it's time for important guests to present their gifts. These guests are different from others, they are basically the bosses of some well-known domestic jewelry companies. For the gifts they gave, Liu Weishan took them with peace of mind. These people asked him a lot, and these people were also very rich, so they never refused their gifts.
And Liu Weishan knew beforehand that Yang Ming was a very affectionate person, if he had told him his birthday in advance, he would have prepared a precious birthday present. Liu Weishan didn't want Yang Ming to spend money, because he felt that he was very close to Yang Ming. How should I put it, he felt like a relative. If possible, Liu Weishan would like to get closer to Yang Ming. This is very different from the kind of interest relationship with other people. That's why Liu Weishan didn't treat Yang Ming as an outsider, but only told Yang Ming about his birthday one night in advance.
In order to show the preciousness of their presents, each presenting guest will open the gift box in advance. One is to let Liu Weishan see his "heart", and the other is to compare with others. Therefore, in recent years, Liu Weishan's birthday banquet has become a place for them to fight each other for wealth.
