Chapter 193: Do you still think connections are useless?
Yang Shaolong's time in the Yang family passed quickly, three days have passed in a blink of an eye, and this day is the old man's 80th birthday.
Morning.
The entire Yang family compound has been lit up, and the red carpet is spread everywhere, a very festive scene.
Everyone in the Yang family had already arrived at eight o'clock in the morning.
They are all waiting to greet the guests who are about to come over to celebrate the old man's birthday.
When Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong thought that Yang Renyi's family was going to make a fool of themselves soon, they couldn't tell the excitement in their hearts.
And Old Man Yang thought that with the other two branches of the Yang family later, there would be some competition in the family. His face was a little uncomfortable.
Historically, their branch has been at a disadvantage, and it is simply not comparable to the other two.
Even so, the people of the Yang family in their branch do not know how to unite, and they will only fight among themselves all day long.
"Hey, if this family passes me, I'm afraid it will fall apart in an instant. When Old Man Yang thought of this, a sadness rose in his heart.
"Shaolong, this child, I have been optimistic about it since I was a child, but after all, I still haven't experienced hardship, and it's not enough to entrust the family. Old Man Yang said secretly in his heart, the more he thought about it, the more lost he became.
"The seventh duke of the Yang family has arrived. At this time, there was a low cheer outside the door of Yang's house.
As the words fell, there was a commotion at the door.
I saw a gray-haired old man leading a group of people in.
This old man is Yang Qigong, in terms of age, he is a few years younger than Old Man Yang. But the Yang family he led should not be underestimated. They are not only good at business, but also good at politics, and there are several high-ranking members of the judicial system in the southern area of Kyoto.
"Haha, third brother, today is your birthday, I wish you happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan. After Yang Qigong entered the Yang family's compound, he soon came to Old Man Yang's side and said with a smile.
Old Man Yang also responded with a smile, "Old Seven, you have a heart, thank you." ”
Yang Qigong waved his hand and said, "It's all my own brothers, what kind of polite words do you say." ”
"Sit. Old Man Yang greeted.
Yang Qigong immediately sat down, and the two men beside him also sat down, sitting next to Yang Qigong.
"Hehe, Uncle Seven, thank you so much for letting you run so far away. Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong looked at Yang Qigong and said with a smile.
Yang Qigong said lightly, "This is what I should do." "The attitude is extremely indifferent, and the posture is also very high.
Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong didn't feel that it was inappropriate, and after laughing dryly, they looked at the two men beside Yang Qigong and said with a smile: "Brother Yong, Brother Ping, you two are here too." ”
Yang Renyong and Yang Renping just said yes, and then there was no follow-up. The companies run by the two of them have stabilized Yang Renjie, so naturally they don't take Yang Renjie very seriously, not to mention that Yang Rencong is a waste, if it weren't for the sake of the same family, they wouldn't bother to take care of it.
Seeing this, Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong continued to laugh, not daring to show dissatisfaction.
"The Yang family, the fifth duke has arrived. At this time, there was another low shout at the gate of the Yang family's compound.
An old man with gray hair led a man in.
This gray-haired old man is none other than Yang Wugong, and the man who follows him is his most outstanding son, Yang Renhua.
Yang Renhua showed an amazing talent for business from an early age, and at the age of 30, he was already a legend in Kyoto's business circles. Now ten years later, he ranks in the top 10 on the list of the richest people in Kyoto, and his influence is extremely terrifying. Moreover, Yang Renhua is very good at making contacts, and many high-level dignitaries in Kyoto are his guests.
Half a year ago, Yang Renhua engaged in a business project, and it is said that the top leaders in Kyoto have personally met him.
Before, in Yang Qigong's branch, Yang Renyong and Yang Renping, who had no one in their eyes, also had extremely solemn expressions when they saw Yang Renhua.
Even if the high-level officials of their judicial circle saw Yang Renhua, they would have to give three points.
As for Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong, they were full of excitement when they saw Yang Renhua. Although they are all members of the Yang family, it is impossible to meet Yang Renhua in normal times with the status of the two of them.
Looking at Yang Wugong recently, Yang Qigong raised his eyebrows. Among the three branches of the Yang family. The strongest is the branch of Yang Wugong.
"Fifth brother, why are you here?" Yang Qigong said with a smile.
Yang Wugong said lightly: "Old Seven, you don't know how busy I am. I don't have to do anything in the family myself, and these juniors can't rely on it. ”
As soon as they heard this, Old Man Yang and Yang Qigong stopped talking.
"Haha, Fifth Uncle, you can count on it, we have been looking forward to you for a long time. Yang Renjie and Yang Wencong greeted Yang Wugong with a smile on their faces.
Yang Wugong didn't even bother to talk to the two of them, and walked straight into the living room of the Yang family.
Seeing this, Yang Rencong and Yang Renjie were slightly embarrassed on their faces, but soon the two of them covered it up.
Immediately, the two of them looked at Yang Renping again and said, "Young Master Ping, please come inside." ”
Yang Renping still ignored them, walked around them, and walked in.
At this moment, although Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong had some resentment in their hearts, they didn't dare to show it at all.
Yang Shaolong, who was on the side, couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong being deflated one after another.
This is what he said before, his own ability is not enough, and he will only stammer with others, which is useful.
After greeting Yang Qigong and Yang Wugong, Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong came to Yang Renyi's side.
Yang Renjie looked at Yang Renyi and sneered, "It seems that your face is bigger than the faces of the Seventh Duke and the Fifth Prince." ”
When Yang Qigong and Yang Wugong came in just now, they saw that Yang Renyi was just politely greeting Yang Qigong and Yang Wugong, and he didn't stammer like them.
"Hehe, our family does things according to ability, and we have a clear conscience. Yang Renyi said proudly.
"Really?" Yang Renjie sneered, "You don't have the skills to make friends in this family, so why bother to speak so highly." ”
"Hehe, that's it. Yang Cong added: "Soon you will know the importance of networking. ”
After speaking, Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong did not continue to stay here at Yang Renyi, and walked to Old Man Yang and sat down.
followed Yang Renyi and sat down beside the old man.
And many juniors of the Yang family are not qualified to sit down in the living room at all on this special day.
Families like the Yang family are all families that have been inherited for nearly a hundred years, and the family style is very strict, and the order of respect and inferiority is very important.
"The president of Kyoto Huayun Trading Company, Mr. Wu arrived. At this time, there was a low cheer outside the door of the Yang family's compound, and a man in a suit and leather shoes walked in quickly.
"Hehe, the guest is here. Yang Renjie laughed and got up to greet him.
This Mr. Wu is naturally coming for him.
"Hehe, Mr. Yang, look at you, the old man didn't say a word on his birthday, fortunately, I was well-informed and didn't miss it, I wish the old man a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity better than Nanshan. Mr. Wu just smiled when he saw Yang Renjie, then waved his hand, and a woman beside him handed Yang Renjie a beautiful brocade box.
Yang Renjie took the brocade box with a smile and greeted, "Mr. Wu, please inside." ”
With the arrival of Mr. Wu, many guests came to the gate of the Yang family one after another, and they all came to celebrate Mr. Yang's birthday.
Almost half of these people are coming for Yang Renjie, and the other half are coming for Old Man Yang.
Yang Renjie greeted him happily, and the gifts he received were piled up several meters high.
Yang Renchong here, there were not many guests coming to him, but there were also a lot, and he also received a lot of gifts.
Compared with Yang Renjie and Yang Wencong, Yang Renyi's side is very deserted.
So far, only two or three people have come for them.
And these two or three people have little influence in Kyoto. In jargon, it's two or three sparrows.
At this time, Yang Renjie and Yang Cong greeted their distinguished guests while looking at Yang Renyi, with extremely disdainful expressions on their faces.
Although Yang Renyi and Li Qiong are not sociable and take sycophants very lightly, they are human beings after all, and they can't escape the word vanity.
Seeing that Yang Renjie and Yang Rencong had so many guests, they were ashamed of themselves.
"How is it?Yang Shaolong, do you still think that connections are useless?" Yang Shaoyu quietly came to Yang Shaolong's side and said mockingly.
