Chapter 655: Jinghua Mansion
Jin Lan is a Yanjing socialite and a child of the Jin family of the four major families, in Qin Fan's eyes, she should be one of the people who should receive the invitation the most, how could an ordinary weekend banquet turn her away?
In Qin Fan's puzzled eyes, Jin Lan told the truth.
In fact, if tonight was just a simple high-class dinner, Jin Lan would definitely receive an invitation from the organizer and attend tonight's banquet as the most dazzling of all the female guests.
However, tonight's banquet deliberately invited the participation of the four major families.
Among them is the Kim family.
As long as there are all occasions attended by the Jin family, Jin Lan, including the clansmen behind her, is not allowed to appear.
This is an unwritten rule within the Kim family.
The reason is that the three branches in power in the current group all look down on Jin Lan's reputation in the outside world over the years.
The Jin family, the head of the four dignified Yanjing families, will actually have a celebrity!
is still a branch of the Jin family.
This made it unacceptable for the Jin family, who had always lived as the eldest brother of the four major families, although they could not interfere with Jin Lan's activities, but refused to appear on any occasion with Jin Lan and her clan colleagues.
As long as it is the place where the people of the three major branches appear, Jin Lan must avoid it.
Otherwise, it should be dealt with as the crime of insulting the family style.
Not only will they cut off all their benefits in the family, but they will also ban Jin Lan and the others, not allowing them to go out, and completely restricting their personal freedom.
Therefore, not only is it impossible for Jin Lan to receive an invitation to the banquet tonight, but even attending it is a violation of the family's rules, and after going back, he may not be able to avoid being held responsible.
"That's ......"
Qin Fan suddenly realized, but it was not surprising at all.
Where there are people, there will be strife, classes and circles.
A four-person university dormitory can be built with more than a dozen different chat groups.
What's more, what about a huge Jin family?
"Okay, I'll let them arrange an identity now, I hope there is still time. ”
Qin Fan thought about it, and sent a message to Li Bodhi, although the time was urgent, there were less than two hours before the banquet began, but he believed that Li Bodhi's ability to do things, no matter how short the time was, it should be enough.
Jinghua Mansion is located in the oldest alley in Yanjing.
This was once a luxurious and grand mansion specially built by Yuan Shikai when the Bauhinia City was restored and called the emperor, specially used to entertain the leaders of the Beiyang warlords and the envoys from various countries who came to congratulate, just the cups for the guests to rinse their mouths were forged with the top Italian designer John Calleija for three months, from the glass extracted from 8 kilograms of quartz crystal, and 1,700 pieces were inlaid in the cup. 15 carats of white diamonds and 6 carats of rare pink diamonds, just a cup in the market is worth 400,000 US dollars, not to mention the large number of treasures from the Forbidden Palace arranged in the mansion, the whole mansion can be described as a Chinese Qing Dynasty Treasure Pavilion, its overall value, immeasurable, is also all Yanjing top upper-class people, the most favorite place.
And the owner of this mansion is the Su family, who is known as the wealthiest of the four major families in Yanjing, who purchased it as an overseas Chinese 70 years ago, and tonight's banquet was also held by the Su family, inviting celebrities from all walks of life to gather and enhance their feelings with each other.
......Thinking that tonight would be the first time in her life that she appeared on an occasion with the Jin family and the other three major families, Jin Lan couldn't help but be a little nervous, while driving, she lowered the window, took a deep breath, stared at the scenery of speeding and retreating in front of her, and her chest rose and fell violently.
"After getting off the bus, my name is He Sicheng, from Aocheng, half a year ago from Wall Street back to Huaxia, met at a private dinner last week, temporarily living in Yanjing to talk about a jewelry business, when to go back is not necessarily, during this time, it is my personal assistant and female companion, responsible for all my trips in Yanjing, almost that's it, don't make any mistakes. Qin Fan admonished.
He Sicheng's identity was arranged for him by Li Bodhi, and his real identity came from He Qiancheng's son who was already a monk in TG, no one knew his identity, and even if someone on the scene personally looked for He Qiancheng to confirm, He Qiancheng would help Li Bodhi do this favor and round this identity.
"Well, I remember. ”
Jin Lan nodded, and quickly drove the car to the venue of tonight's banquet: Jinghua Mansion.
Get out.
At this moment, the night is cool, this generation is all the buildings left over from the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the red lights illuminate the nearby scenery, the gray wall and the ancient roof, the nostalgic scenery makes people seem to have traveled through time and space at once, and returned to the troubled times when the war was raging and the warlords were rising.
And Jinhua Mansion is quite solemn and brilliant in this kind of place where there are no high-rise buildings, the exterior walls are all made of marble, and the architectural style is also a perfect combination of Western and Chinese classics, even the people responsible for welcoming guests at the door are wearing costumes from the Republic of China period, and everyone's etiquette is quite decent and in place, and the overall look is much higher than any banquet that Qin Fan participated in before.
In the land of Gyeonggi, the etiquette that has been passed down for thousands of years is undoubtedly reflected at this moment.
"Okay, may I ask if it's Mr. He?"
Just when Qin Fan was looking everywhere for the location of the person arranged by Li Bodhi, he saw a woman wearing a black uniform skirt coming over to say hello.
A standard secretary or assistant style, tall and slender, no stockings, a pair of hollow black high heels, no extra embellishments on the body, a figure that men admire, no smile on his face, and no indifference.
The key is rimless glasses, young and beautiful.
Qin Fan has seen many top secretaries or assistants, but Xinran is not at the same level as this woman from her figure to her appearance.
"Well, yes?" Qin Fan asked.
"I was sent by Miss Li to deliver the invitation, please accept it with a smile. ”
The female secretary said, took out a black gilded envelope from the black Kun bag she was carrying, and handed it to Qin Fan.
Qin Fan pinched the envelope in his hand and glanced at it, the black was simple and elegant, the texture was excellent, and the hot gold on it was also the appearance of Jinghua Mansion outlined with simple lines.
"Is there always one?" Qin Fan pinched the thickness and asked subconsciously.
"Yes, tonight's banquet is more private, and the invitation is not so fast, but the other one you want will be delivered to you later, please wait a while, Mr. He. The female secretary said.
"There is labor. Qin Fan nodded.
"Sure enough, I knew that the banquet that I could invite the four major families to in one go was not as simple as I imagined, and the personnel restrictions alone were completely different from the ones I participated in before......
Looking at the figure of the female secretary leaving, Jin Lan muttered.
"What's this, it's just a banquet, it's nothing more than trying to divide people into three, six, nine, etc., the people outside can't get in in a dead row, and the people inside enjoy the unique glory and superiority that this special occasion brings to themselves, in fact, they are all people, they are just born with the qualifications to enter, but this is not immutable, there will always be new people to replace the old people, just like I couldn't even touch the door here before, but now I can be able to Qin Company to determine the admission qualifications, don't worry, as long as you follow me steadfastly, you can also hold such a drinking party in the future, so that those who once looked down on them have no admission qualifications。 ”
Qin Fan's words were disdainful, but they set off a monstrous wave in Jin Lan's heart.
"Can I do a meeting of this level and let those who once looked down on me be turned away from the door?"
As he murmured, a sound of ridicule came from behind him......
"Really, Jin Lan? How dare you appear in such a place? Don't you know that there is going to be a banquet here tonight, and people from the four major families have been invited? What do you want to do here? You can't want to attend tonight's drinking party, right? I told Jin Lan, don't forget the clan rules! Beware that I will call the clan now, arrest me back, I will be grounded, and I will not be able to leave the house for three years!"
It was a woman's voice, speaking harshly, even Qin Fan, who was standing beside Jin Lan, couldn't help frowning slightly.
