Chapter 51: The Tan Family's Predicament
In the wide lobby of the Qingnian auction house, a middle-aged man with a thin figure and a pale face was pulling Xu Legong's arm. A look of anxiety and sorrow.
"Brother Xu, we have been friends for so many years, you can help me! I borrowed money for turnover, I haven't gone bankrupt yet, I will definitely be able to pay back the money in the future." ”
Because he was too anxious and nervous, some moist moisture was rising in the pupils of the middle-aged man, and he had no money to stump the hero, and he now had no other way than to ask someone to borrow money to turn around.
This person Yuan Chen is no stranger, he is Tan Xiangqiao's father, Tan Zhen.
The Tan family has been in the shopping mall and has a lot of wealth. Tan Zhen, as the eldest son in the family, was named Lei Ting, and he has shown amazing business talent since he was a child, and he has always been smooth sailing and well-known.
Many times, Tan Zhen said in a big tone that the environment in Qingfeng City was too poor, and he had no sense of accomplishment here, so he wanted to move to a big city.
He has also been working hard for this goal, and after decades of continuous struggle and expansion, he has successfully entered the rhythm of borrowing money to continue his life.
Speaking of which, this person is used to other people's flattery, because in most cases, it is others who beg him, Tan Xiangqiao has accepted this kind of edification since he was a child, arrogant and complacent.
Therefore, when Yuan Chen expressed his love for her in the past, she didn't care about it at all, and her performance was extremely exaggerated, and she didn't take Yuan Chen in her eyes at all.
What you can't get is the best, such Tan Xiangqiao is full of attraction, which makes the previous Yuan Chen unable to extricate himself, after all, young people think very beautifully.
However, the mountains do not turn around, especially in the business of mixed business, success is fast, and failure is also fast.
Today's Tan family has the previous scenery, Mo said that the business territory will be expanded, the family will move, and now even the foundation of Qingfeng City is almost impossible to keep, Tan Zhen hopes to complete his dream and expand the business, but he didn't pay attention to how difficult it is to succeed in Qingfeng City, the border.
A tree growing in the desert is tenacious, but it is not too beautiful after all. You have to make yourself beautiful, and your trunk will wither.
There are all kinds of things, which has created the current situation, Tan Zhen is begging for money to turnover, his daughter can't even take care of her studies, and she is also running around for the family, and she is embarrassed to stop the carriage outside.
Xu Legong looked embarrassed, according to Xu Legong's style of acting, he is a person who is very willing to help others. Yuan Chen's family is in trouble, he is willing to give a thousand taels of gold to help, the relationship between the Tan family and him is no worse than the Yuan family, but now he is unwilling to help, there must be difficulties.
Of course, this is Yuan Chen's opinion. He didn't know exactly what was going on.
Xu Legong's face became more and more ugly, and he looked even more distressed.
"Brother Tan, aren't you deliberately embarrassing me? I will definitely help you if I can help you, but I have already made it clear to you, although I am the big boss of the auction house, I am mainly responsible for auction and appraisal, and I need to find my brother to borrow money, and you borrow so much money, thousands of taels, this matter can only be decided by my brother Xu Lezhi, and the Celebration Auction House is not my alone!",
Tan Zhen blushed anxiously and pulled Xu Legong's arm tightly, for fear that the other party would run away.
He said anxiously: "Brother Xu, now I can only tell you! You don't know Xu Lezhi, you like the icing on the cake, and you don't want to send charcoal in the snow." Now that my business has suffered a catastrophe, he is completely uneasy about me, let alone thousands of taels of gold, not a single copper plate is unwilling to lend me, now only you can help!"
Xu Legong did not exercise vigorously at all, but he was out of breath.
"It's not a secret, now I can't help myself, the rules of the youth auction house are those who can live, and now my brother's performance is far beyond me, the top forces in Qingfeng City are all building momentum for him, and my position as a big boss may not be able to be kept, I really can't help you." ”
Tan Zhen's expression was a little desperate, Xu Legong was his only lifesaver now, and he couldn't give up this only opportunity.
"Brother, you are brothers, if you help me say good things, your brother will probably be relieved. ”
Xu Legong just smiled bitterly, now that he is a mud bodhisattva, it is difficult to protect himself, where can he help others.
"Don't say that, I'm actually quite a failure, although I am the big boss of the auction house, but I like to make friends from all over the world, I spend a lot of money, speaking of which, I have brought very little help to the auction house, so my brother's reputation is better than mine, and now the position of the big boss is almost his, so he can call the shots." ”
Tan Zhen's face turned red anxiously when he heard this, but there was nothing he could do, and his heart was like ashes for a while.
Yuan Chen shrugged, this Xu Legong was very busy, and he didn't even find out now.
Speaking of which, Xu Legong is very capable and popular. can earn money, can also spend money, has nothing to say to friends, can't see others suffering, can help if he can, when such a person says that he has no money, he has absolutely no money.
For this reason, he is almost unable to keep the position of the big boss of the auction house.
After a glimpse of the whole leopard, Xu Legong saw that Yuan Jiang was persecuted, and he was willing to take out a thousand taels of gold to help, so he knew who this person was.
Now that he is so embarrassed by the Tan family, it is not difficult to imagine that he has had a hard time in the past two days, and even his economic power is gone.
Tan Xiangqiao slowly walked into the lobby, because of Yuan Chen's relationship, Xiao Du no longer embarrassed her, she also had the heart to come in and have a look, but when she saw the current scene, she regretted coming in, this situation was more worrying than being angry outside.
Yuan Chen couldn't help but laugh, he was keenly captured by Tan Xiangqiao, and his eyes were suddenly red, people who were once willing to not even want dignity for themselves are now high up and compare themselves to nothing.
Speaking of which, Tan Xiangqiao's appearance is very good, otherwise a large number of people who would not have been fascinated before would be fascinated, before Yang Yuechan appeared, she was the only moon.
It's a pity that Yang Yuechan appeared, the peerless elegance, so that Tan Xiangqiao has no capital to resist at all, compared with the two, what is she counting?
used to be disdainful of Yuan Chen, but now the other party gloated about his situation, and he didn't dare to be dissatisfied in the slightest, a person who could chase Yan Jiuan and fight, where could she provoke now.
Yuan Chen has a very bad feeling for Tan Xiangqiao, after all, he just came to this world with a ruthless triple attack, this Tan Xiangqiao is an important part, and it is too shameless to smash the flowers on his head.
For Tan Xiangqiao, Yuan Chen didn't care about it at all, and the standard smile was on his face, which made Tan Xiangqiao tremble, but the other party was so wronged that he could only suppress it in his heart.
Walking forward, Yuan Chen said to Xu Legong. "Uncle Xu, I have something to look for you. ”
Xu Legong found Yuan Chen at this time, and his expression was happy, firstly, he admired Yuan Chen, and secondly, he also had the opportunity to get rid of Tan Zhen's entanglement.
"Heh, it's Xiaochen, you have something to do! Okay, I'll take you upstairs, and we'll discuss it." ”
As he spoke, Xu Legong said to Tan Zhen. "Brother Tan, I really can't help you, you go and think of other ways, you can think of a way from relatives and friends!"
Although Tan Zhen was anxious, his skin was not thick enough to be indestructible, so he was embarrassed to continue to entangle.
"Okay then, Brother Xu, I'll go first, you think about it and see if you can pull me." ”
Xu Legong's expression was stunned, he didn't agree, he didn't agree, he was very embarrassed.
Yuan Chen said with a smile. "Uncle Xu, you can actually think about this matter. ”
When Xu Legong heard Yuan Chen's words, he frowned slightly, and said after thinking for a while. "Since you say so, then let me think about it!"
"Brother Tan, I'll try my best to find a way to borrow money, and I'm not sure if I can persuade my brother to let go, or you wait a few days. ”
Tan Zhen saw that Xu Legong was relieved again, where did he dare to complain about something, he hurriedly nodded in agreement, the words of thanks kept blurting out, and his eyes when he looked at Yuan Chen were full of gratitude.
Tan Xiangqiao was stunned for a while, obviously Yuan Chen was gloating, but suddenly helped his father speak. Could it be that he still likes himself, it should be, he has always been one of his most determined suitors.
However, Tan Xiangqiao thought of Yang Yuechan again, the woman has now moved to Yuan Chen's house, the two are very close, how can she compare with Yang Yuechan.
Sighing, Tan Xiangqiao was very entangled, but there was an unstoppable fantasy in his heart, Yang Yuechan and Yuan Chen have been together for a short time, but they have known him for a long time, he has always liked himself, so ......
Thinking about it, Tan Xiangqiao looked at Yuan Chen expectantly, but the latter went upstairs with Xu Legong talking and laughing, and didn't give her the slightest glance at all, she was really disappointed.
"Qiao'er, what's the daze?"
Tan Zhen walked up to Tan Xiangqiao and touched his daughter's head pityingly, this girl didn't care about her studies, and accompanied herself to work blindly. In fact, he didn't have the face to come to Xu Legong, but his daughter persuaded herself that she had to be able to bend and stretch, and she couldn't give up a chance.
Tan Xiangqiao shook her head, her heart was in a mess.
Tan Zhen took a deep breath and exhaled a turbid breath. "Now there is a little opportunity, for Yuan Chen, if he hadn't said a good word, Xu Legong probably wouldn't have given him a chance at all. Speaking of which, although the leading power of the Qingnian Auction House is now in the hands of Xu Lezhi, my relationship with Xu Legong was not good before. ”
Tan Xiangqiao was even more aggrieved, as if her breath was swelling more and more in her heart, and she couldn't let it out. The boy who was scolded and driven away by himself can now change the fate of his family with a single sentence, how ironic.
Tan Zhen didn't pay attention to his daughter's entanglement, and he was embarrassed. The Tan family's wealth may not be comparable to that of the Qingnian Auction House, but Tan Zhen can dispatch much more money than Xu Legong.
Both are famous for their kindness, but Tan Zhen's fame is far inferior to Xu Legong, he is just pretending, but Xu Legong is willing to dig out his heart, which makes Tan Zhen actually hate Xu Legong all the time, and feels that this person is very poor.
It's a pity that now, he still has to beg people with a shy face, and this guy who has always hated has become his only hope.
Tan Xiangqiao asked with a bitter face. "Dad, if we manage to borrow money, will the business be fine?"
Tan Zhen's body trembled, and he shook his head after a long time. "I'm not sure, after all, because of the expansion of the business, we have invested too much, and the hole is too big. Hey, if you are a man and have the ability of Yuan Chen, you will definitely not be so embarrassed. ”
Tan Xiangqiao raised her head, her eyes filled with mist. "Dad, are you blaming your daughter?"
Tan Zhen hurriedly shook his head. "Being a father doesn't mean this, a genius like Yuan Chen, even if you are a man, you can't compare to it, I just think about it. Speaking of which I am still envious, Yuan Jiang was so embarrassed before, but he gave birth to a good son, and now even if he goes to the City Lord's Mansion to run rampant, no one dares to say anything. ”
"Think about it, now that Yuan Chen has gathered his energy, he can suppress Yan Jiu'an to fight, you can imagine what kind of demeanor he will be in the future, Yan Jiu'an has the possibility of becoming the king, so what about Yuan Chen, at least he has the potential to become the emperor! Speaking of which, if Yuan Chen can help us, these troubles may not be a problem. ”
Tan Xiangqiao didn't say a word, only felt a surging depression echoing in her heart, almost making her explode.
