Chapter 394: Celebration Banquet

"Distinguished guests......"

On the rostrum, Huang Xingran, the mayor of Xinchuan City, stood with a smile on his face and smiled at the group of men and women in the audience.

This is a celebration banquet to celebrate the perfect end of the exhibition, hosted by the government, invited to be both internal and external celebrities, of course, there is no lack of government personnel to accompany you.

The crowd stood in twos and threes, most of them standing still with a smile on their faces, with an extra glass of wine in their hands, listening carefully to Mayor Huang's words.

Zhou Mingluo is also one of the people, wearing a decent suit, wearing it on his body, the whole person looks a little more stable and mature, and beside him is Yang Dan in a black evening dress, trimmed and well-proportioned, with a hair tied behind his head, with a moving crescent-shaped earrings in his ears, the whole person looks beautiful and moving, but also has a little more noble atmosphere.

There are also Ren Liheng and his wife accompanied by him, and the city government chose Ren's hotel as the venue for the celebration, and Ren Jiake also came out with a lot of people, not only Ren Liheng, but also Ren Liheng's father, Ren Liheng's wife, and the third secretary of the district party committee of Ren's family.

Huang Jingjing is not there, the main thing is that this person is not a successful person on the surface, he is just Huang Xingran's son, and he doesn't have any serious industry, this kind of occasion doesn't seem to be very suitable for appearing, maybe it's nothing if he comes, no one will be more serious with him, but Huang Dashao doesn't seem to have love for this kind of occasion, and he doesn't bubble at all.

And Mayor Huang postponed this celebration banquet for the sake of Zhou Cai, it is such a celebration banquet If the owner of the water belt does not come, it will be too unobtrusive, but Zhou Mingluo really doesn't need to do anything when he comes here, that is, just go through the motions, if you are interested, you can meet some people, and if you are not interested, you can just stay up for a while and leave.

Mayor Huang's concern is that a very large number of people attending the banquet know that Zhou Mingluo is the owner of the Dingshui Belt, and there is no doubt that those people must have status, if they see that the host has not come, they will inevitably laugh in their hearts, but in fact, most of them don't know, and he naturally won't deliberately publicize it.

And Zhou Mingluo standing here is not eye-catching, after all, his identity on the face is really not particularly outstanding, at least compared with some people in the hall in front of him, there is still a sense of disparity, such as a royal family, such as the president of a century-level brand, those talents are the focus of the banquet, and there are many celebrities in Xinchuan or nearby cities around him talking and laughing.

After Mayor Huang finished speaking, after getting off the rostrum, he walked towards the more important foreign guests, standing there and laughing and talking, occasionally sweeping Zhou Mingluo in the process, but also smiling here.

On this occasion, he is not good at being too enthusiastic about Zhou, after all, the two have a friendship, and he wants to accompany those big people.

Zhou naturally didn't care about this, but just greeted the person beside him.

When Ren Liheng and the others also had a party and walked away, he suddenly smiled and touched a glass of wine with Yang Dan, "Ah, it's time to get a driver's license." ”

As someone initially knew, Yang of Tianqing Advertising always did not have a car, and every time he commuted to work, he either took a bus or took a taxi, mainly because Mr. Yang did not have a driver's license and could not drive.

Zhou Mingluo also arranged a driver for her, but he felt that he had to have a driver to pick up and drop off him on his last shift, so he insisted on his original state, which also made a guy think that he could further provoke the relationship between the two men and women by letting the other party hitchhike.

It's just tragic that someone never thought of sitting in the car and waiting for the other side to get off work, but as soon as the person arrived, before he could get out of the car, he saw a guy driving a new Maybach like a younger brother who took the initiative to open the door for Zhou and ask the two to get in the car.

Although he doesn't recognize people who drive Maybach, he may be able to afford about 10 million luxury cars, which is by no means something he can compete with, so he can only drive away in the collapse with his head down, and even run away in the desert for fear of being discovered by Zhou Mingluo.

Zhou Mingluo escaped over there, but the four got into the car one by one and sat down, and had a meal at noon, Huang Dashao and the newly paired stockings beauty went directly to the free, and Zhou Mingluo took Yang Dan to buy some clothes needed for the evening banquet, and put forward the idea of asking her to move into her own house by the way, ready to live together.

That side was a little squirming at first, and I was embarrassed to agree, but on some secret occasions, when Zhou Mingluo burst out of the beastly nature that had been suppressed for a long time, although he was tired in the end, he finally agreed.

Although moving is a cumbersome matter, there are many people under Zhou, and it only took a few dozen minutes to move everything that Yang Dan was originally in the rented apartment to the west of the city.

In the afternoon, I bought a few clothes, moved, and Yang Dan took time to decorate the new home of the two, and then came to the banquet.

In the future, she has to go to work, and if she doesn't let the driver pick her up, she really has to learn to drive by herself, after all, she lives far away from work.

Yang Dan gave him a blank look in the face of this, "Do you think such an occasion is boring?" ”

is also a little nonsense on this occasion, but the man around her is thinking about asking her to take a driver's license.

Zhou Mingluo suddenly smiled bitterly, "It's boring." ”

"Maybe it's boring, but it's a good opportunity for more people to come here, so many rich and powerful, just get together and maybe they can negotiate a business, and after a banquet like this, maybe a lot of business operations can really be developed." Yang Dan smiled, Zhou was the first time to participate in such a banquet, but it was not the first time for her, after the company expanded, she also followed Ren Lijuan to several such occasions to talk about business.

"Heh, he's more professional than me." Zhou was dumbfounded again and quipped with a smile.

He really finds ting boring here, and his business doesn't seem to be much to talk about here, but no matter how boring it is, he can't leave until the end.

"Boss Zhou, it's a good winter." Just when Zhou seemed to be in pain, there was a hearty laugh over there, and when he turned to look, he found that it was Liu Yanbo who came with a beautiful fu, and raised the wine glass in his hand at him from a distance.

"It turned out to be Mr. Liu, it's been a long time." Zhou Mingluo also laughed and raised his glass as well.

This Mr. Liu was still the one he wanted to meet at Wu Donghong's house when he got the first water belt, and the other party was a celebrity in the Xinchuan collecting industry, a big collector, and a good at bronzes.

However, this is not only a collector, but also a successful entrepreneur, otherwise he would not have directly contributed to the acquisition of Zhou's Dingshui belt that time, and it seems that it is not surprising to be invited here today.

When Liu Yanbo really walked over there, he first smiled and introduced the beauty Fu beside him, but it was his wife, and Zhou also politely introduced Yang Dan, and then smiled again, "I haven't had time to congratulate Boss Zhou before, Qin Hange, now in the new volume, it is really in full swing." ”

"Mr. Liu is polite." Zhou Mingluo smiled again.

It was only after this that he lowered his voice again, walked to the other side of Zhou Mingluo with a smile, and said in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them, "Boss Zhou, I really want to visit the SI people collection room, especially the Dingshui belt, I just didn't have the opportunity to know too much before, but this time I can be regarded as caught." ”

"Heh, Mr. Liu's collection room is probably no worse than mine." Zhou Mingluo also smiled and spoke.

"Where can I compare with my collection room, but it's really our kind of people, who is the real tycoon in this area, in addition to the water belt, I also want to recommend the Xia president of Pengcheng first." With this, Liu Yanbo even pointed to an old man in the distance who was talking and laughing with someone.

Zhou Mingluo was stunned, the old man had a good appearance, a kind old man's friendly appearance, and he looked very generous, but he really didn't know him, and he didn't seem to have heard of this person.

"His collection room, enough to open a museum, and all of them are boutiques, according to Mr. Xia's fortune is to salvage a shipwreck by the sea, the shipwreck of the Chronicle, which is the treasure shipped out of the British fleet at that time, in addition to gold and silver, there are also some rare antiques, those gold and silver are the capital of Mr. Xia's start, and those antiques have also been left by him, and now there are really several priceless things, but unfortunately this kind of thing is something that others can encounter and cannot seek, It's not easy to salvage things in the vast sea, and we can't envy it. ”

Seeing Zhou Mingluo's puzzled expression, Liu Yanbo chuckled and explained in a low voice, and there was really no lack of envy in his words.

In fact, everyone has their own way of making a fortune, and this kind of thing is not necessarily about the gold and silver things that Mr. Xia salvaged from the sea, but some antiques that the other party fished up really make people envious and jealous.

No, Mr. Liu is not short of channels to make money, his industry in Xinchuan, there is a large playground built in the north of the city, and it is also a daily gold, almost every day there are a large number of tourists to watch and play, this is a very absorbent industry, not to mention that there are other industries that are extremely good.

And what he said was just to explain when he saw Zhou Mingluo and didn't seem to know who Xia always was.

But after waiting for the words, Zhou Cai, who was originally casual, suddenly moved in his heart, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Salvage a shipwreck?

Stroll...... He hadn't really paid much attention to this before.

But this is also a very eye-catching thing, there are really too many Chinese antiques that have been plundered abroad and all over the world in the war, and most of the years when the war spread were the Age of Discovery.

No one knows how many ships were wrecked in those years, and how many precious things were drowned in the endless seas.
