Chapter 92: Zhang Jia's First Contact
Two days later, Xia Ge boarded the Zhang's extended Lincoln and headed to the Pauly Sophia Mansion, a forty-minute drive from the city center.
This is the first golf course developed in Banyan City a few years ago, as well as some residences.
More than forty villas were built along the artificial lake. The main residence of the Zhang family mansion is the largest one in the center of the villa complex.
It is surrounded by greenery on the outside and a cave on the inside. A few minutes' walk to the golf course. It is a well-known elite concentration area in Rongcheng.
There are no more than five-story buildings within a radius of more than ten kilometers, which will not leak the privacy of the villa area.
In the past, this kind of place was a place that Xia Ge never dared to hope for. Today, sitting in the master's car, I can finally find out.
"Who are the people living here?" Looking at the countless small villas on the side, Xia Ge sighed.
The driver already knew that Xia Gehui was a disciple of Zhang Lao, and he didn't hide it. smiled: "The people who live here are all members of the Zhang family, and Mr. Zhang usually lives in the city center to meet his old friends." Only come back occasionally. ”
Xia Ge was stunned when he heard this, such a large area turned out to be the territory of the Zhang family. I've never heard of it before, but I know that it's a powerful person living here.
A few minutes later, the car stopped in the garden of the largest villa, and a housekeeper was waiting to guide Xia Ge to the lounge.
Today is the family banquet of Zhang's house, and the children and grandchildren of the Zhang family who are working outside have rushed back from all over the country.
Zhang Qingfeng also attaches great importance to this banquet, and it has not been such a grand banquet for outsiders for many years. Yesterday the maids started cleaning and decorating.
Xia Ge could see that the villa was lit up everywhere, and red lanterns were hung on the street lamps on the side of the road. The lawn flowers and trees are also neatly trimmed.
Since two days ago, Zhang Lao told his family that he was going to accept new disciples. The people in Zhang's house began to get busy.
Xia Ge's father was also invited to Zhang's Mansion to take charge, but tomorrow Xia's father and Xia's mother are invited VIPs, so naturally it is impossible to cook.
After Xia's father refused, the Zhang family learned that the new disciple of the old ancestor turned out to be the descendant of the chef.
This is really a carp jumping over the dragon gate, which makes countless people envious.
Xia Ge was led to the lounge to rest, which was almost a large leisure and entertainment club, and there was even a small Internet café in it, where Xia Ge needed to wait for the evening banquet and then accompany the master to meet everyone.
At the same time, many places are discussing Zhangfu's new moves.
The news that Zhang Qingfeng wants to accept apprentices in Sichuan Province spreads very quickly, and many people know that the two bigwigs in the north and south will come, and at the same time, many bigwigs may attend, even if they don't come in person, the younger generations of the family will also come to give gifts.
Wang Congcong also got the news that he was going to come to watch the ceremony on behalf of his family. His father also went out from Sichuan Province and also had a relationship with the Zhang family.
In fact, this time Zhang Qingfeng still controlled the scale, and only invited some people from Sichuan Province and his own apprentices, and then the Zhang family.
It's just that outsiders are squeezing their heads to get involved, trying to get invitations, and even if they can't get them, they are also asking who has invitations. I want to come along.
This is a good opportunity to meet a few apprentices of Zhang Qingfeng, and in addition, the banquet of the richest man in Sichuan Province will definitely have many people in the circle, and a few can be earned.
Tomorrow is the apprenticeship ceremony, and today some people have already arrived at the hotel in Rongcheng to wait.
In one of the hotels, Qin Lin was discussing the situation tomorrow with his father Qin Zhen.
Qin Lin already knew that Xia Ge was telling the truth that day, and he was very unwilling in his heart. He said to his father: "Dad said this, Xia Ge's seniority will be higher than mine in the future?"
"The seniority doesn't mean anything, the news I heard is that Xia Ge has only known the master for a month, and he must have learned nothing. You have studied with me since childhood, and your ability must be stronger than his. It is enough to keep this in mind. Qin Zhen comforted his son.
Qin Lin said dejectedly when he heard this: "What's the use of learning those, since I was a child, I have memorized so many ancient books according to your requirements, and there is still nothing special." ”
When Qin Zhen heard this, he was silent. Don't talk about Qin Lin, in addition to being in good health for decades, he hasn't learned Zhang Qingfeng's skills.
Does the master really have any other cultivation methods? This thought came to his mind again.
"Tomorrow, you find a chance to test Xia Ge and see what is so special about him. Qin Zhen finally said.
Qin Lin nodded, the conflict between him and Xia Ge would not be resolved just because Xia Ge became his uncle.
In the evening, Xia Ge and the Zhang family had a meal, during which everyone was very enthusiastic about Xia Ge.
made Xia Ge wonder if the master's statement that day was too much to think about. However, he always responded politely and did not show any restraint.
After the meal, Xia Ge and the master's children and grandchildren sat and chatted in the hall, and everyone else went to the side hall.
The fourth generation of the Zhang family is about ten years older than Xia Ge, and the fifth generation is still a child. None of them are eligible to observe. As for the side branches, there is no chance to come to this hall.
The youngest of the Zhang family in the entire hall turned out to be in his fifties. There are a total of 5 people, the three richest brothers in Sichuan Province, Zhang Yonghao, Zhang Yongfa, and Zhang Yongda. and their father, Zhang Mengda. Zhang Qingfeng, the Dinghai God Needle of the Zhang Family.
"Xiaoge, let's go our separate ways. Otherwise, it's hard to shout. Zhang Yonghao smiled.
"Then I'll call Uncle Yonghao. Xia Ge nodded.
"I can come to the house to play at any time in the future, but I forgot to ask before. What are you doing now?" asked Zhang Yonghao.
Now that Xia Ge is his grandfather's disciple, he naturally wants to be more close.
He had asked his grandfather himself before, and Xia Ge already had a magical spiritual touch. Being able to feel the physical condition of others, this ability is only possessed by grandpa, there were many people who begged him before, wanting to let grandpa take action, but grandpa has retired, he can only shirk.
Now that he has Xia Ge, he can also be much more convenient. If Xia Ge didn't have a job, it would be best to fool him to his side.
"Okay, put away your careful thoughts, Xiao Gezhi is in the entertainment industry. won't work for you. Zhang Qingfeng guessed his grandson's mind and said directly.
It was impossible for him to let Xia Ge go to his children and grandchildren. His own descendants he knows best. In the past few years, Xia Ge must have been supplied.
After a few years of his disappearance, it may be a matter of time.
"Yes, Uncle Yonghao, I will participate in a talent show jointly produced by Modu TV and Tencent in ten days. The direction of life has been decided. Xia Ge smiled.
"It's a pity. After all, the entertainment industry is too small to be suitable for you. Zhang Yonghao finally said.
In their eyes, people in the entertainment industry are just like the previous dramas, and there is really no room for improvement. The pattern is too low.
Xia Ge didn't explain, but said with a smile: "Actually, there are also some cultural industries, ready to do animation, games, film and television, and the like." Catering should also be involved in the future. There is also a food company at the moment. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Yonghao became interested, if he was a star and an entrepreneur at the same time. That's not bad.
"As a business, we can have a good exchange, and if we are short of money, we will tell my uncle and give you a loan. Zhang Yonghao said magnificently.
Xia Ge has done his homework, and now Zhangjia's group has invested in Shenmin Bank, which is one of the few companies in China that has shares in financial banks. The assets of the entire family should be hundreds of billions, and Zhang Yonghao also has a net worth of tens of billions.
Of course, it can't compare to Qin Lin's father, who controls the trillion group. But in terms of personal assets, the Qin family is not necessarily richer than the Zhang family.
Baoping Group is a myriad of people, and even has government shares. is far from being as free as Zhang Yonghao, and everything is up to him.
No matter how rich Zhang Yonghao is, Xia Ge will not be moved.
He also always remembered his master's words, and it was best not to have too many entanglements of interests. Otherwise, if the master leaves, many things will be out of control!
"Xiaoge, let's talk about development planning, uncle has been in the business world for many years. I should be able to give you advice. Zhang Yonghao said.
