Xiao Zhenlei, who was about to go out in the morning, was stopped by Song Shijie, "Sir, in two days it will be the birthday of Fan Gaotou, the old man of the Green Gang, and I may not have time to remind you at that time, I have prepared the birthday gift, and Mother Wu knows where to put it."

When Xiao Zhenlei heard this, he slapped his head, and almost forgot about it, Fan Gaotou's birthday still has to go, and he may not be able to have a good relationship with others, but it is best not to offend others, not to mention that Fan Gaotou is still very moral, and the local gang of the Green Gang under his leadership is also an underground organization that is both thieves and Taoists, and generally does not mess around, and there are very rules in doing things, in line with the principle of not offending, since others have already sent invitations, this shows that he is still the number one person in Fan Gaotou's eyes.

After sitting in the Huade Road villa for a few days, Xiao Zhenlei handed over the matter of absorbing the shares of various rubber companies to Li Shulin. In the past few days, Li Shulin has been following Xiao Zhenlei's side, and he has learned a lot of things, and his understanding of the stock market has also deepened a lot.

The next morning, Xiao Zhenlei asked Opiyin to go with him with a gift, today is Fan Gaotou's birthday, he is going to cheer, and since he made a little name on the beach, he has not visited the local dock, but he is now doing serious business, it stands to reason that he will not have any intersection with Fan Gaotou, but in Shanghai on the beach, you must have a wide network of people, the road is clear, and when you want to take this road, you have to find a way to dredge it is afraid that it will be too late.

Fan Gaotou's mansion is not too far from the French Concession, Xiao Zhenlei went in a carriage, the weather turned hot, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the situation on the street along the way could be seen through the window.

The rickshaws pull the customers as fast as they can, the bells on the wheels make a crisp sound, which has the same effect as the bells installed on the bicycles, and the streets are full of vendors and hawkers, and the old buildings on the beach on both sides are constantly retreating.

Suddenly, Xiao Zhenlei saw two familiar voices, and hurriedly asked the dog to stop the carriage and greeted him from the window: "Two beautiful young ladies, this is a coincidence, you are shopping here?" So saying, he jumped out of the carriage.

It turned out that these two beauties were Wang Yanan and Cheng Biyao, who met last time at the Licha Hotel and later spent the night at Xiao Zhenlei's house.

The two beauties heard someone say hello, and thought it was a rich second-generation disciple, turned their heads to look, and saw that it was Xiao Zhenlei who got down from the carriage, both of them smiled, Wang Yanan said: "It's Brother Xiao, today Saturday, there is no class at school, so the two of us will meet to go shopping!" ”

Cheng Biyao also smiled: "By the way, Brother Xiao, where are you going?" ”

Xiao Zhenlei said: "Oh, I went to someone else's house to drink birthday wine, no, the gifts to be given are all in the car!" Since the two beauties have nothing to do, why don't you go and have fun with me, and after the banquet, I'll send you back, okay? ”

The two beauties looked at each other, and Wang Yanan said, "You go to someone else's house to drink birthday wine, what is the matter with the two of us?" Besides, there's nothing fun about eating at the banquet, so we're not going, right? ”

Xiao Zhenlei was worried that he didn't have a chance to get along with the two beauties, where could he give up lightly, and hurriedly said: "It's not right for you to think so, why are you studying, and you are still studying in such a famous school as Aurora Academy?" Is it just to know a few words? Isn't it for the sake of increasing knowledge and knowledge? Make yourself a useful person to society? Is that so? I went to the birthday banquet this time, but there are a lot of business celebrities, concession bigwigs and people from all walks of life in Shanghai, and it is also good for you to get to know these people with me, not to mention anything else, and then meet those ruffians and gentlemen in the future, as long as you say that I know so-and-so, people will not dare to touch you, right? ”

"Poof-" Cheng Biyao couldn't help laughing out loud when Xiao Zhenlei said it, and looked at Xiao Zhenlei with a look of disgust and said, "Even if you make sense, I don't have any opinion, it depends on whether Sister Ya Nan is willing to go!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei immediately launched an offensive against Wang Yanan: "Miss Wang, let's go, let's go, you see that we have only seen each other for so long, we missed today, and I don't know when I will see you again, so you will give me a chance, ah?"

This is too much to say, Wang Yanan is a particularly sensitive woman, her face suddenly turned red with shame, and she blamed Xiao Zhenlei in her heart, saying such embarrassing words on the street is really ashamed.

Xiao Zhenlei was easy to say, and he glanced at Cheng Biyao and asked her to help speak, Cheng Biyao was actually happy in her heart, seeing Xiao Zhenlei giving her a look, she was even happier in her heart, and she also helped persuade Wang Yanan, and Wang Yanan finally agreed to go together.

When Xiao Zhenlei and the three arrived, many cars and horses were parked in front of Fan Gaotou's mansion, and the owners of these cars and horses were all celebrities from Shanghai who came to attend Fan Gaotou's birthday banquet.

Getting off the carriage, Xiao Zhenlei felt that his buttocks hurt, he was busy these days and didn't pay much attention, he had to be idle today to notice, looking back, it turned out that the wheels of the carriage were still wooden, and they were two wheels, no wonder he was so awkward, and instructed the dog: "After going back, find Mr. Fan, let him spend some money to buy a four-wheeled carriage, the kind that foreigners sit on, don't be afraid of spending money, tell the people in the car dealer to replace the wheels with rubber tires, this wooden wheel is uncomfortable to sit on, just keep it for backup!" ”

Dogan promised: "Yes, sir! ”

Xiao Zhenlei said and turned around to help Wang Yanan and Cheng Baguio in the car respectively, and then instructed Opiyin to move the gifts from the car down and follow, several people walked to the gate, the person in charge of the reception did not know Xiao Zhenlei and others, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold his fists and asked: "Dare to ask what this gentleman is called?" ”

Xiao Zhenlei took out a gift slip from his suit pocket and handed it over and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhenlei of the contemptible Zhenhua Company, come to congratulate Fan Lao on his birthday!" ”

Zhike was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly laughed: "It turned out to be Xiao Caidong, who gambled on the Orientals, defeated the Western Hercules, and opened Zhenhua Company!" Who, go and tell the master, just say that Xiao Caidong of Zhenhua Company has arrived! ”

"Yes!" A small guy in the back agreed, turned around and ran towards the house.

Zhike saw Xiao Zhenlei bring two female dependents over, and did not feel ridiculous, these days, the atmosphere on the beach in Shanghai has been very open compared to the mainland, many large families hold banquets, and many guests bring their female dependents to participate, which is learned from foreigners.

Then Zhike took Xiao Zhenlei's gift list and opened the gift and read it out loud, and when he finished reading, someone immediately handed over a brush to Xiao Zhenlei at a table next to him to sign, Xiao Zhenlei took the brush and signed his name, at this time a few people came out of the house, and the front was Fan Gaotou.

"Hahaha, is this the brother Xiao Zhen Lei Xiao who recently became famous on the beach? When I saw it today, Brother Xiao really showed a talent, a dragon and a phoenix among people, and a hero! Fan Gaotou clenched his fists as he walked down the steps.

Xiao Zhenlei also came to show a smile, clasped his hands and said with a smile: "The younger generations wish Fan Lao Fu such as the East China Sea and Shoubi Nanshan!" I've been thinking about coming to see Fan Lao, but in recent days, I have been riddled with trivial matters, I have no time, I am late, and I hope that Fan Lao will forgive my sins, I met Fan Lao today, I was surprised, you are really 60th birthday today? ”

Fan Gao raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, is this still fake?" ”

"But I feel that you are so strong and strong, and you are only forty years old!"

"Huh?" Fan Gaotou was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed: "Hahaha, Brother Xiao is really not an ordinary person, okay, Brother Xiao, I have accepted your compliment to the old man!" Who are these two young ladies......?"

Xiao Zhenlei hurriedly introduced; "Fan Lao, these are my two good friends, Miss Wang Yanan and Miss Cheng Baguio, they are both studying at Aurora College, on the ground of Shanghai Beach, and I will ask Fan Lao to take care of them in the future!"

Wang Yanan and Cheng Baguio are also clever people, and they hurriedly said a blessing to Fan Gaotou, and said a lot of compliments about birthday blessings, and Fan Gaotou's eyes narrowed with joy.
