Chapter 585: The Hunter and the Fox
……
"The woman was strong and realistic. Only when you truly become the head of the Yamamoto family and master a powerful force will you have value in her eyes. That's when she'll really look at you. You're going to have a chance of actually chasing her down!" After a pause, "So, the most important thing you need to do now is to heal your injuries and continue to follow our planned step by step." Maybe it won't be long before the head of the Yamamoto family will be yours!"
After listening, Yamamoto's eyes showed hope and excitement.
"Of course, if you are beaten this time, we can't do nothing. After attracting Yamamoto's attention, "Didn't that woman surnamed Fu want you to fight with that Wang Zheng, so you just agreed to her." I'll take care of who fights for you. The cost of participating in the fight...!"
After a pause, the old man frowned slightly, and a trace of confusion appeared on his face.
"When your mother passed away, didn't she give you 4.7% of the shares in Standard Chartered Bank? I think this money is enough for you to participate in this 'World Club' competition. Moreover, this valuable Standard Chartered stake in your hands has always been the scruple of your brothers. No, or reducing these shares, it will make them further let their guard down on you, and it will be easier for us to plan next. Moreover, this matter can also help you get some impression points from Miss Fu!"
"But these shares are the only thing of value that my mother left me. If you lose...!"
"Digging man, you have to remember that there is a give-and-take. Compared to these shares, the head of the Yamamoto family is the most important. As long as you become the head of the family, the hundreds of billions of dollars of funds and industries accumulated by the Yamamoto family will be at your disposal. Moreover, you can also influence the Trillion-dollar Sanhe Consortium! This is the power and wealth that you should fight for desperately!"
After listening, Yamamoto looked hesitant for a long time before nodding.
"Then please father-in-law!"
"We don't need to thank each other. I've watched you grow up since I was a child, and I'm like father and son!"
"Hmm!" Yamamoto nodded vigorously, his face showing excitement and admiration.
And his performance also made the old man very satisfied.
"Okay, if you're injured, rest early. I'll go out first!"
"Father-in-law, I'll send you!"
Saying that, Yamamoto was like getting out of bed. But he was soon held down by the old man.
"No, you just lie down. I'm leaving!"
"Father-in-law, go slowly!"
The old man smiled and nodded, and after a few more words, he opened the door and walked out.
And at the moment when the door closed, the original excitement, admiration and gratitude on Yamamoto's face disappeared without a trace in an instant. Instead, he glanced mockingly at the door and slowly leaned back on the pillow on the back of the bed. There was a hint of deep thought in the slender eyes.
Obviously, the relationship between him and the old man who called him his 'father-in-law' is not really a 'father-son relationship'.
……
Suburban airport.
"Remember to give me a call when you get there!"
"Don't worry!" Shen Bing, who was smiling brightly, stood up and kissed Wang Zheng lightly on the lips.
"This time I may stay longer in the mountain city, you are alone in the capital, you have to take care of yourself!"
"You know, you too!" Wang Zheng affectionately scratched Shen Bing's upturned nose.
"Alright, I'm running out of time. ”
Wang Zheng nodded, "Wang Lan, take care of Madam outside!"
"Yes, boss!"
After instructing Shen Bing again, Wang Zheng took Wang Qian and walked down from the private plane. It wasn't until after the plane took off that Wang Zheng stopped waving his arms.
"What time is it?"
"Nine-ten! There are still 50 minutes before the time you agreed with Liu Wuye!" Wang Qian said quickly.
"Let's go!" After nodding, Wang Zheng turned around and walked outside.
……
"Boss, it's here!"
Wang Zheng nodded, looked at the quiet mansion through the car window, and gave Wang Qian a look. The latter nodded knowingly, pushed the door and walked down.
I saw him, after stepping on the two steps and stepping over the eaves about two meters deep, he knocked on the vermilion and inlaid brass milk nails, and looked at the extremely thick wooden door.
After a short time, with the sound of footsteps from far and near, the originally closed wooden door was opened by a bodyguard wearing a black coat, with a fierce expression and a rather serious expression, and only one person could enter and exit.
"Who are you looking for?" the other party asked cautiously after looking at it for a moment.
Wang Qian didn't say much, and directly handed over the greeting post in his hand.
"Please wait a minute, I'll go in and report!" The latter took a look at it, his face changed, and as soon as the door closed after leaving these words, the sound of hurried footsteps quickly disappeared.
After about two or three minutes, the sound of chaotic and hurried footsteps began again.
"Squeak...!"
The closed vermilion gate was soon completely opened. A large group of people surrounded a middle-aged man in a navy blue cardigan gown, loose trousers and old cloth shoes in the capital, dressed in an extremely old-fashioned manner.
Seeing this situation, Wang Zheng also knew that it was time for him to get out of the car.
"Mr. Wang's visit to the Humble House really makes Liu shine!"
"The fifth master is polite, you are so gracious, which also makes Wang a little flattered!"
The two shook hands with each other, and after a brief eye contact, a disguised smile on their faces greeted.
"Mr. Liu, please!"
"Please!"
The two of them divided into left and right, and walked into the house with similar steps, surrounded by their respective men. Like most courtyard houses, there is a shadow wall after entering the door. After passing around the shadow wall and through the garden, you will find a hall.
However, judging from the scale, Liu Wuye's courtyard house is obviously much larger than Wang Zheng's courtyard. There are not only front and back courtyards, but also left and right cross courtyards. Although I don't know the specific data, it covers an area of almost no less than 3,000 square meters.
Being able to occupy such a large courtyard house in the center of Sijiu City shows the strength of the other party.
When Wang Zheng looked around from the corner of his eye, his mind was racing rapidly, and the group also stepped into the living room of the hall. The furnishings were not unexpected. In the middle of the living room, as in the case of the ancient elite families, there are the main seats placed on either side of the Eight Immortals Table, and the guest seats arranged on both sides of the six chairs. On both sides of the living room, solid wood partitions and cloth curtains are used to separate two small spaces. One resembles a study and the other resembles a pantry.
"'The heart is like a white cloud, and the mind is like flowing water. "It seems that the fifth master has a lot of insight into Taoist philosophy!" Wang Zheng said with a smile as he looked at the middle hall hanging high in the living room of the hall.
"Mr. Wang has won the prize. I'm just a layman, and I can't do Buddhism's 'six roots are pure, and the four are empty'. In addition, when I am old, I have a preference for Taoist health things. The reason for this is just to live a few more years!"
"The fifth master's outspoken true temperament makes the younger generation quite admired!"
"Haha, Mr. Liu is polite, please take a seat!"
Nodding, the two sat down separately.
"Come on, serve tea!"
Soon, a beautiful woman with a beautiful face and a plain cheongsam walked out of the next room with tea.
"This is the 'Lu'an Gua Pian' that a friend gave me earlier, how about Mr. Wang taste it?"
"Then I want to taste the taste of this Qing Dynasty tribute tea?"
"Please!"
"Please!"
After the two of them gestured to each other, they each picked up their teacups and took a sip of them.
"How?"
Wang Zheng smashed his lips and nodded, "The entrance is slightly bitter, and when you taste sweetness in your throat, and then go down to the tea to your stomach, you are already full of energy, and your lips and teeth are fragrant!"
"I didn't expect Mr. Wang to have a lot of experience in the tea ceremony!"
"It's just that I usually drink a lot and accumulate some experience!"
Liu Wuye smiled, "I still have a lot of Lu'an melon slices here, since Mr. Wang likes to drink them, then I'll give you some later!"
"How embarrassing is that!"
"It's just a little tea, it's not a valuable gift, so Mr. Wang doesn't have to excuse himself!"
"Since that's the case, then I'll accept it with a cheeky face!" After a little hesitation, Wang Zheng nodded.
"Haha, that's right!
"Please!"
After the two of them took a sip of their teacups again, they each knew in their hearts that the time for greeting had passed, and it was almost time to get to the point.
"Mr. Wang's name has been thunderous over the years. Not only has he become the top wealthy man in China in a short period of time, but he has also repeatedly invested heavily in the collecting world, and last year's Christie's spring auction of 180 million US dollars from Christie's in New York auctioned Picasso's masterpiece "Algiers' Woman 'O' Edition", creating the world's highest art auction record. It's really admirable!"
"I just happen to have some money, and I like to collect, I don't deserve such praise from the fifth master!"
"Hehe, Mr. Liu is too modest!"
Wang Zheng smiled, "Yesterday, the fifth master sent someone to invite me to come over the house, saying that there are good antiques to sell, I wonder if I can take out the things now for me to see?"
"Originally, I wanted to talk more with young talents like Mr. Liu. But since you said so. So let's get down to business. However, I have already instructed the people down there to arrange a banquet. At noon today, Mr. Wang said that he would stay and leave after lunch. ”
"Then bother!" Wang Zheng did not refuse.
"You're welcome!please!"
"Please!"
Under the guidance of Liu Wuye, the two bypassed the guest seat and came to the study on the left.
In this dazzling study room, which covers an area of about 50 square meters, there are many books in ancient costumes on the Bogu shelf near the west, of course, porcelain, bronze and other ornaments.
In addition, there is a long case on the north and south sides, the long case in the north is empty, and the south is placed with writing utensils such as pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
However, in contrast, what attracted Wang Zheng's attention the most was the desk in the middle of the study. In addition to the quaint and ornate wood carvings and shapes, the most important thing is that the material of this desk is small-leaved red sandalwood. Moreover, judging from its pulp, it is also a valuable old object.
