Chapter 107: Shame on oneself
Located on Ocean Beach on San Francisco's west coast, the restaurant is called Cliff Lodge and offers floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning ocean views.
From every angle, you can see the Pacific Ocean and the blue sea below the cliffs, and you can sip a glass of wine while watching the cruise ship pass by.
Chen Linzhi ordered shrimp with smoked salmon and a dish called "Cioppino", which according to the waiter is made from fresh sea fish and Pacific crab, and Yu Luoqi paid for it anyway, and he was only responsible for the comfort of all-you-can-eat.
Miss Yu seemed to have a new face, happily catching up with the couple opposite.
If it weren't for Chen Linzhi knowing that she was followed by thousands of younger brothers, she would probably be regarded as a passionate and free young girl, carefree and innocent.
It's a pity that these wonderful words have nothing to do with Yu Luoqi, and they are replaced by words such as ruthlessness and scheming, Chen Linzhi will think that it is more appropriate, the prestige of the White Gang is not made by doing good deeds, and the first pot of gold and blood of the Yu family is dripping with blood.
Rare contact with the upper class, Chen Linzhi found that he began to make money, and his mentality and taste of life have not kept up, such as the 1966 old wine from Mouton Winery, which is clearly about to be 20 years old, and the price is high, but he can't taste it at all.
Yu Luoqi, who was sitting on the side, didn't bother to remind him that it was best to eat seafood with white wine, and directly used Chen Linzhi as an ornament, so as not to be fed too much dog food and feel uncomfortable going back.
The topic went around and around, and after chatting about the recent situation, it finally came to Chen Linzhi.
His cheeks have been tested many times, not to mention that the couple opposite is just strangers to him.
When the second generation of Brunei's rich named Doug in English asked Chen Linzhi what kind of occupation he was engaged in, Chen Linzhi calmly told:
"I started a trading company, and now I mainly ship goods between Port City and the United States, and I just went to Port City to start a new company.
I am also involved in securities, foreign exchange, art, and real estate, and Wal-Mart is my biggest customer. Of course, you must not be as good as Doug, the oil industry is not easy for everyone to do well, I read that the newspapers have mentioned Soviet oil many times, Saudi Arabia has also begun to increase production, it should be about to reduce prices...... You know, cut off their finances, and before the oil prices were too high, the United States increased shale oil production. ”
“......”
After Chen Linzhi finished speaking, what else could Doug say.
His family is indeed wealthy, but Doug himself has not achieved anything, since graduation he has been busy traveling the world with his girlfriend all day long, from Central America to South America, to Europe, New Zealand and other places, and has traveled to more than 30 countries and regions in two or three years.
thought that Chen Linzhi was Yu Luoqi's boyfriend, so he naturally thought about his vague resignation, and subconsciously felt that he was really wide-ranging, and he was very knowledgeable, and he could even do foreign exchange and securities, and his worth was definitely not low.
instantly impressed, ashamed of himself.
Yu Luoqi, who knew the truth, resisted the urge to roll his eyes, thinking that he had really brought Chen Linzhi over today with the right person.
Last time, when she heard Chen Linzhi introduce that the great power game would lead to the appreciation of the yen, she had already concluded that Chen Linzhi's mouth was very powerful, and she was not stage frightened, and even she dared to fool herself, wanting to empty gloves and white wolves.
is mainly Chen Linzhi's achievements, there is no way to make Miss Yu have a "reliable" impression of him, and the current business is only enough for Yu Luoqi to make a small fuss.
Chen Linzhi didn't think it was lying, it was nothing more than pinching his head and cutting off his tail and omitting the scale, what others think, it was someone else's business, and it had nothing to do with him.
Doug smiled awkwardly and said: "My family is responsible for oil extraction, some offshore drilling platforms, I never touch this part of the oil price trend, but since it is about the Soviet Union, then Washington should be tougher, just like the moon landing project, both sides spend so much money." ”
When Chen Linzhi heard this, he decisively decided that Doug was an optimist embroidered pillow.
He doesn't remember the details of this era, and the view that oil prices will fall is the conclusion that Chen Linzhi has deduced from his own combination of news clues.
Although Chen Linzhi is only a small middle class now, the payment has not yet arrived, and strictly speaking, he owes a large amount of triangular debt, but this does not affect his ideological wealth, mainly because he does not need to feel confused about the road ahead, and firmly believes that he will be able to get rich in the future, and he will still be rich.
In this way, how could Chen Linzhi envy Yu Luoqi and Doug, let alone jealousy, frustration, inferiority and other emotions.
It's a pity that this kind of self-confidence stems from mentality, and is regarded as a shameless skin by a female boss who quietly gives him a thumbs up under the table, and Chen Linzhi is too lazy to be as knowledgeable as her.
The woman sitting opposite is similar to Doug's personality, and she belongs to the optimistic silly Bai Tian who doesn't need to worry about mundane things, and she is happy and everything is fine.
Her English name is Weiwei, and she can't see her boyfriend's loss at all, and she is curious: "What kind of art do you like to collect?" My father also likes these, and often goes to the family museum for a walk, that place is really boring except for being beautiful, it is called Chimei Museum, I don't know if you have heard of it. ”
Chen Linzhi endured a mouthful of old blood, and secretly sighed that sure enough, rich men and women were digested internally, and he didn't expect that there would be a museum in this girl's house?
On the surface, he pretended to be strong, and replied vaguely: "Calligraphy, painting, ceramics, Ming and Qing dynasty furniture, mainly collect antiques from Asia, especially in the mainland." ”
The price is low and can appreciate and so on, all of which were swallowed back into Chen Linzhi's stomach.
He was a little injured, and he really couldn't see that because of himself, he made the rich richer, and it was better to shut up when it was time to shut up, so as not to accidentally remind this girl to stock up on the same thing.
Judging from the theorem of "the richer she is, the richer she is", even if she hoards some good things at will now, she will have the opportunity to be quite valuable in the future.
No one has the ability to read minds, and no one can see that Chen Linzhi is regretting because of the mistake of "reincarnation", if he has a family of millions of dollars, with his foresight, it will not be as ordinary as it is now, and the primitive accumulation stage of capital is the most difficult.
Probably only Yu Luoqi found that Chen Linzhi was deflated, she smiled and squinted her eyes for this, and she couldn't see him pretending.
When she entered the door just now, Chen Linzhi teased her a lot, and Yu Luoqi held a grudge.
......
After eating this meal, they each went home.
Until now, Chen Linzhi has not even mixed up his own house.
I went back to Chinatown to get the key to open the door of Song Yuewen's house, and soon turned around, looked for a small advertisement on the wall, and asked the housekeeping service to come to clean up.
Song Yuewen should come back soon, the house was tossed into a mess by him and Yin Yu, and a layer of dust had fallen on the table, and it was time to tidy it up completely.
The money should be kept to make money, which does not prevent Chen Linzhi from trying to live comfortably.
I started to think about moving out and renting a good house to improve the quality of life.
