Chapter 505: Confidant
In the Wumen Medical Hall, Lin Dong's left arm was placed on the case in front of Wu Changqing. On the other side, Wu Changqing's face sank like water, and his brows were tightly locked.
After a while, Wu Changqing withdrew his hand.
Lin Dong hurriedly asked, "Elder Wu, has the evil qi in my body increased or decreased?" β
Wu Changqing was just trying to serve Lin Dong's vein, and at this moment, fine beads of sweat appeared on his head, he took out a handkerchief and wiped it, and drank another sip of tea, and then said: "Xiaolin, the old man doesn't hide it from you, the evil qi in your body is increasing unabated." β
Lin Dong had already been prepared, and when he heard this, a smile appeared on his face, "Old Wu, I have been prepared, you don't have to worry about me." After bothering for a long time, this is goodbye. β
Lin Dong stood up to leave, but was stopped by Wu Changqing.
"Xiaolin, wait, I have something for you."
After saying that, Wu Changqing turned around and entered the back room, and after a while, he walked out with one thing in each hand. In his left hand is a thin booklet, and in his right hand he holds a small wooden box.
"You put these two things away." Wu Changqing handed over the things to Lin Dong, "This booklet is an introductory manual for the inner family exercises, which records the technique of breathing and breathing, and if you practice according to it, it will be very helpful for cultivating qi." In addition, this small wooden box contains seventy-seven and forty-nine Guyuan Pills, which have miraculous effects. β
Lin Dong saw Wu Changqing's solemn face, knowing that these two things were rare things, and he didn't know what to say at the moment, and his gratitude to Wu Changqing was surging in his heart. And what he didn't know was that these two things could be said to be Wu Changqing's treasures, the booklet of the inner family exercises was passed on to him by Master Wu Changqing, and it was the treasure of the Gusu medical sect, which was actually a superior internal family exercise, and the forty-nine Gu Yuan Dan were even more rare treasures, which were refined from ninety-nine eighty-one precious Chinese herbs, and several of them had been very difficult to find in the past ten years.
"Elder Wu, tell me what is good."
Wu Changqing showed an elder's kind smile on his face and said, "Xiao Lin, if you are a little grateful to me in your heart, then study the inner family exercises on the booklet with your heart. β
Lin Dong nodded solemnly, "Elder Wu, Lin Dong must study hard." β
Wu Changqing waved his hand, "You have a lot of things, so I won't send you." β
Coming out of the Wumen Medical Hall, Lin Dong sat in the car and opened the booklet and looked at it, this set of introductory manuals for the internal family exercises is also simple, it doesn't look so profound, you can understand it at a glance, but it is not so easy to cultivate, it involves almost all the things he has to do in a day, how to walk, how to sleep, how to breathe, there are clear requirements on it.
The purple-brown little wooden box, Lin Dong took it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and knew that this wooden box was not a vulgar thing, it should be some old things, because the blue light in the pupils seemed to be able to absorb a faint aura from it.
When I opened it, the inside of the box was ingenious, divided into seven layers, and seven Gu Yuan Dan were placed on each layer. After the box was opened, a strong medicinal fragrance rushed into the nose, and just smelling it made people feel refreshed.
It will not be a vulgar product!
Lin Dong remembered Wu Changqing's words, Gu Yuan Dan should be taken before seven o'clock in the morning, and he would take one pill every three days. It was already noon now, and this Gu Yuan Dan could not be eaten, but the inner family exercises on the booklet could be cultivated, he turned the page that recorded the sitting posture, did it one by one according to the above requirements, and then started the car and left the Wumen Medical Hall.
Back to Jinding Construction Company, Zhou Yunping sent him an invitation card, and said: "Boss, this is sent by Jinhe Valley, the Jin family has opened another jewelry store in Xizhou City, today is the opening day, there will be a dinner party in the evening, do you go or not?" ββ¦,
Lin Dong opened the invitation card and looked at it, "Since people have posted invitations, it will be stingy if you don't go." Xiao Zhou, you prepare a gift for me, and I will take it to Jinhe Valley. β
Zhou Yunping nodded, and then immediately went out to run errands. Lin Dong left the office and went to the construction site of the public rental housing project for a walk, and when he came back, it was already evening, and when he saw a beautifully packaged gift box on the table, he knew that it was a gift prepared for him by Zhou Yunping.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Lin Dong arrived at the hotel where the dinner was arranged in Jinhe Valley on time, and Jin Hegu and Guan Xiaorou stood outside the door to greet the guests. Lin Dong walked towards the door, Jinhe Valley saw him from afar, and when Lin Dong walked to the door, he grabbed Lin Dong's hand.
"Mr. Lin, I really didn't expect you to come."
Lin Dong said with a smile: "Jin Dashao has sent an invitation, if I don't come, I won't give face, of course I'm coming." As he spoke, he sent the gift he brought, and Jin Hegu glanced at Guan Xiaorou, who immediately reached out and took it.
"Come on, why do you want to bring something? It's too expensive. Golden River Valley held Lin Dong's hand tighter.
"A little bit of meaning, little care." Lin Dong also smiled.
Jin Hegu said: "I must eat and drink well tonight, and I still have to welcome guests, so I will lose my company first." β
The two are cordial as if they are good friends, and others can't tell that they seem to be people who have been married.
The enthusiasm that Jin River Valley showed to him tonight was also beyond Lin Dong's expectations, in the short few seconds of eye contact with Jin River Valley just now, Lin Dong did not see hatred in his eyes, only pity, Jin River Valley's eyes made his back cold, and that look was like looking at a dying cat on the ground struggling with the feeling of dying.
Lin Dong took a deep breath, and said in his heart, it seems that Jinhe Valley has regarded me as a dying person.
Entering the banquet hall, Lin Dong felt that a gaze was thrown at him, and sure enough, he turned his head and saw Jiang Xiaomei looking at him with a red wine glass. Lin Dong picked up a glass of wine and walked towards him slowly, among the guests who came tonight, almost all of them were celebrities and dignitaries from Xizhou City, and the Jin family was a famous family in Jiang Province, and it could be seen from tonight's scene how deep the fame of this kind of family was.
After greeting all the way, Lin Dong met Jiang Xiaomei. The two of them understood each other, found a relatively remote corner, and talked in a whisper.
"What's going on in the Golden River Valley?"
Jiang Xiaomei shook the red wine in the glass, "He is focused on the project in the International Education Park, the last time the workers made trouble, recently found the three brothers of the Li family to watch the field, I heard that the construction site has been quiet for several days, this three brothers of the Li family really have some doorways." β
"What about his other movements?"
"I haven't touched it yet, Guan Xiaorou is investigating, and I will notify you as soon as there is news."
In order to avoid suspicion in the Golden River Valley, the two dispersed after a short exchange, and each went to the crowd to find acquaintances.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the banquet started on time.
Tonight's banquet is more than just a meal, Golden River Valley has prepared several programs, and after a few dazzling cabaret performances, Golden River Valley took the stage to announce that the most exciting moment of the night has arrived.
Offstage were reporters from Xizhou TV station and major newspapers, and the spotlight was on him, and Jin Hegu had long been accustomed to smiling.
"The smooth opening of Jin's Jade Xingxi City Seven Stores is inseparable from the strong support of all the colleagues present. To this end, I will bring a few pieces of precious jewelry to auction tonight, and all the proceeds will be donated to charity to support the schooling of children in poor mountainous areas. β
After Jin Hegu finished speaking, the magnesium lights flashed under the stage, and the guest seat area resounded with thunderous applause. β¦,
Jinhegu was fully prepared tonight, and Guo Kuishan, the person in charge of the Jiang Provincial Hope Project, was also invited. This short, tall and thin middle-aged man is a well-known philanthropic pioneer in the country, Guo Kuishan's family is very wealthy, but he is devoted to charity, not only scattering his family wealth, but also dedicating most of his life to charity, and has a very good reputation in Jiang Province and even the whole country.
"Chairman Guo will give a witness tonight, and I will hand over the proceeds to Chairman Guo on the spot."
After Jin Hegu finished speaking, Guo Kuishan, who was standing beside him, took a step forward and bowed deeply to the guests in the audience. Guo Kuishan raised his head, a smile bloomed on his wrinkled face, this man who was originally a rich son gave up the rich and comfortable life at home, and ran around all the year round for charity, his footprints traveled all over the remote mountainous areas, his face was beaten by wind and rain, and the wind and frost of the years left traces of his actual age on his face.
"Many people know more about my life experience, and therefore many people have a strong interest in me, no matter where I go, someone will always ask me, do you give up a comfortable life at home, why do you want to run into the mountains and old forests, isn't this self-inflicted? Actually, I want to tell you that I never felt that what I was doing was self-inflicted, on the contrary, I thought it was a very meaningful thing. There is a word called helping others, I think this is my biggest feeling, I have been doing charity for more than 20 years, and what I have gained is happiness. Whenever I see the smiles on the faces of the children who have dropped out of school returning to the classroom, and whenever I see the smiles of the lonely and widowed elderly people in the happy home...... My heart is full of happiness and contentment.
I don't know if you have considered a question, what is the role of money? Is it a tool to satisfy one's own desires, or a bargaining chip to show off one's social status, or is it something else? For me, money has only one purpose, and that is to help others! With great power comes great responsibility, and all of you here today are successful people, and I hope that you can be generous and use your love to send a warmth to many people in need. β
After Guo Kuishan finished speaking, he bowed deeply again, and when he raised his head, tears flashed in his eyes. Such a person with great love always has such an infectious energy in him.
The first thing on display in the Golden River Valley is an agate necklace, the color is bright and bright, and you can see that it is a high-quality product color at a glance.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first piece of jewelry on display tonight, starting at 100,000!" Golden River Valley paused, "I announce, the charity auction is now open!" β
The intention of inviting so many reporters from TV stations and newspapers in Golden River Valley is obvious, and those who win the auction tonight will naturally be able to show their faces, and maybe become the hot spots of tomorrow's newspapers and television. At this time, whether it was out of love or fame, the rich people in the guest area rushed to bid.
Then, there were quite a few people in the audience, who didn't seem to be interested in bidding at all, and they were exchanging things in groups of three or five, and they didn't even look at the lively scene at the moment. These people have a common identity, all of them are public family members who eat public meals.
They will not participate in the auction as a flamboyant way of showing off their wealth, and in order to maintain the image of servants of the people, they do not even dare to wear good clothes. There is a kind of luxury called low-key, these people wear seemingly inconspicuous, but in fact they are worth a lot of money, and the watch on their wrist and the belt on their waist are even better things, often tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands.
Lin Dong was silent with the family, he sat there, slowly sipping the red wine in the cup, looking at the lively scene in front of him, and admired the design and arrangement of the Golden River Valley. He thought that if Jin Hegu could put more effort into the right path, he would really be able to become a strong opponent for him. The auction of the first agate jadeite has been going on for ten minutes, and the price has soared from the starting price of 200,000 to 1 million. This price seems to have reached the top, and a person in front of the VIP area has already stood up, smiling with fat on his face, and his huge head is on his head, and he knows at a glance that he is a guy with a fat brain. β¦,
Lin Dong knew this person, he was a coal boss, he had two or three mines in his hands, he was very rich, and it was said that he liked to participate in this kind of charity auction the most, as long as he had bid for something, he must get it. Lin Dong glanced at Guo Kuishan on the stage, Guo Kuishan was looking at the coal boss in front of the VIP area, his brows were tightened, and he could see that he didn't like the current situation.
When Jin Hegu shouted one million and two times, Lin Dong raised his sign and stood up, "One and a half million!" β
Wow......
The banquet hall suddenly fell silent, and many people turned to look at him, and some people who didn't know each other began to tell each other who this young man was. Guo Kuishan stood on the stage, his eyes stayed on Lin Dong's body, although they were a little far apart, but the eyes of the two completed a handover in the air. Guo Kuishan's brows tightened even deeper.
Jin Hegu was also slightly stunned, he didn't expect Lin Dong to participate in the auction at all, could it be that this guy was kind and wanted to donate some money?
"A million ......"
Swish!
The coal boss stood up from his seat, "Two million!" β
At this time, even Jin Hegu was stunned, just now it was still a million price, and in less than half a minute, this agate necklace with a purchase price of only 3,000 yuan discharged a high price of 2 million.
"Two and a half million!" Lin Dong was neither humble nor arrogant to refresh the highest auction price.
Sweat broke out on the fat face of the coal boss, thinking that he had played Dafa this time, but he had to get what Yuan Datou had priced, so he stubbornly held up the sign in his hand, and shouted out an octave voice with the strength of milk, "Three million-"
Jin Hegu forgot the offer for a moment, this scene reminded him of a year ago when he was in Sioux City, it was also an auction run by the Jin family, and Lin Dong seemed to have done the same thing. He immediately understood, and glanced at the coal boss Yuan Datou, as if to say, Yuan Datou, you are really wronged.
Yuan Datou puffed up his chest and looked at Lin Dong provocatively, and the two looked at each other in the air, with a look of Wang Ba's anger.
Lin Dong bowed to Yuan Datou from afar, smiled, and slowly sat down.
Golden River Valley picked up the hammer, "Three million once, three million twice, three million three times...... Deal! β
Bang!
Final word.
Yuan Datou stood there like a chicken, as if he was stupid, the arrogant and domineering expression on Fang Cai's face condensed on his face with a trace of remorse, and the moment he saw Lin Dong bowing to him, he seemed to understand that he had really done Yuan Datou.
Many of the people present in the guest area looked at Yuan Datou unpleasantly, and when Jin Hegu shouted the word "deal", those people showed the greatest enthusiasm and clapped their hands red.
"Thank you Boss Yuan for your generosity!"
The agate necklace was auctioned at a high price that Jin Hegu had never imagined, and no matter what means Lin Dong used, this result would not be harmful to him. The auction was still going on, and when Jin Hegu raised his eyes and looked at Lin Dong, the seat was already empty. In the midst of the lively applause just now, Lin Dong walked through the other exit of the banquet hall, and the dinner was over for him. His "tricks" can be repeated, it was Yuan Datou's arrogance that made him temporarily decide to teach Yuan Datou a lesson, but he didn't expect to repeat the old tricks, this Yuan Datou was really fooled. If Yuan Datou stopped playing just now, he would have to pay the bill for 2.5 million. Lin Dong thought to himself that this kind of extremely risky thing should not be done well in the future, and if you succeed once or twice, it does not mean that you will succeed at any time.
He hadn't walked a few steps out of the banquet hall when he heard the sound of hurried footsteps behind him.
"This gentleman, please stay!"
Lin Dong turned around and looked, it turned out that Guo Kuishan was calling him.
"Mr. Guo, is there something wrong?"
Guo Kuishan walked closer and shook Lin Dong's hand, "Thank you just now, you have a lot of credit for being able to raise so much money." ββ¦,
Lin Dong smiled awkwardly, knowing that his little abacus had already been discovered by Guo Kuishan, so there was no need to hide it, and said, "Mr. Guo, this is what I should do." By the way, you wait for me. β
Lin Dong found a place, took out the checkbook from his arms, wrote a string of numbers, and then handed it to Guo Kuishan privately, "For charity, I also want to do my best." β
Guo Kuishan looked at the number on the check, and his mouth grew in surprise, Lin Dong actually gave him a check for three million in private! He had a deeper understanding of the young man in front of him, he was not a fellow traveler with the people in the banquet hall, he wanted pure charity, and he did not need to use the cloak of charity to promote himself.
"Can you tell me why?" Guo Kuishan asked.
Lin Dong smiled, "It's very simple, just like you said, if you do more good deeds, you will feel very happy and satisfied." β
"You're my confidant." Guo Kuishan said, "I will keep a record of where this money goes, you wait, I will let you feel how great everything you have done today is!" (To be continued.)
