Chapter 503: The undercurrent is turbulent
"I'm not used to wearing formal clothes, but Miss Xiao insisted on letting me wear them. There's no way, she's already bought it, and the total value of this equipment is enough for me to eat and drink for a long time, so I can't waste it. Lin Tian spread his hands, it didn't matter.
"Damn, it turned out that Miss Xiao sent it, did she want to soak you? Brother Lin, you are a cow, you are worthy of being my idol, the person who chases the eldest lady can go around Xikou City a few times, but I didn't expect her to chase you in turn." Zhou Botong looked adoring and praised him.
"Don't talk nonsense, the eldest lady is still a yellow flower girl. Except for my ex-girlfriend, no woman has ever chased me so far, and I think I am still single due to the lack of peach blossoms in my life. Lin Tian said very innocently.
Zhou Botong looked at Lin Tian suspiciously, and said: "It doesn't make sense, a wise and martial man like you, the woman chasing you has to go around Xikou City at least a few times, and the women around you are all beautiful and fragrant, don't you feel it at all?"
"I am destined to be a lonely star, and I am destined to die alone, isn't this reason strong enough?" Lin Tian said helplessly in the face of such a gossipy person: "However, you said that there are many people chasing the eldest lady, why is there only Bai Yuze and Bai Dashao pestering the eldest lady?"
"Hmph, what is Bai Yuze, the Bai family is a little richer than us, but he is also the rich man of Xikou City, and when it comes to money, he is much richer than him. Moreover, there are many children of those families who are better than Bai Yuze, and they can't line up for him. He is just relying on the building near the water, and everyone is in Xikou City, pestering the eldest lady. Zhou Botong said disdainfully.
He paused for a moment and said: "Think about it, with the appearance and talent of the eldest lady, she is better than many men, such an excellent woman, of course, there are many excellent men chasing, and there are some things that you will know slowly in the future." But Brother Lin, I still think you are very powerful, and I support you in chasing the eldest lady. ”
"Are they?, a lot of excellent suitors?" Lin Tian smiled faintly and said, "I would like to meet if I have a chance, okay, let's go." ”
Not to mention the eldest lady, even if Xiao Manxuan, who is only eighteen years old, there is no shortage of suitors, Sun Decai, who wanted to step on two boats, and Bai Yufeng, the second young man of the Bai family, but unfortunately, these people were trampled under his feet. As for the suitor of the eldest lady, he has only seen one Bai Yuze so far.
Lin Tian didn't think much about it, went out with Zhou Botong, and drove to Tianfu Restaurant.
Tianfu Restaurant was originally an ancient Chinese building, and the surrounding environment is relatively quiet, but today because of the opening ceremony of Tianxue Jewelry, it is very lively.
Before I got closer, I could already see two red lanterns hanging in front of the gate of the restaurant from a distance, and the red silk cloth was also hung on the door, which was a bit of a lantern.
The décor doesn't look very high-minded, and it doesn't look like other companies have a golden façade, but it blends in with the surrounding buildings, revealing an antique feel.
Outside the restaurant, it was a different scene, when many security guards were maintaining order and guiding the vehicles into the parking lot in an orderly manner.
And these visitors' vehicles show that this is not a small ceremony.
Among the vehicles Lin Tian saw, the worst one was a BMW Mercedes-Benz with hundreds of thousands, not to mention those sports cars that pulled the wind.
"I didn't expect so many people to cheer abroad, but today there are many sports cars, could it be that they are all young people?" Lin Tianqi asked.
Zhou Botong looked at him even more strangely, and said: "Brother Lin, do you really know or not, this morning is just the opening ceremony, and the afternoon is the main event, the auction." So in the morning, the juniors of the family come a lot, and the old guys don't show up until the afternoon. ”
"I see, I've heard about the auction, but I really don't know what it is, and the eldest lady didn't tell me. Lin Tian was also puzzled.
"You've done a really thorough job, you're the major shareholder of Tianxue Jewelry. Zhou Botong was very helpless.
"However, you are right when there are many people, isn't there a saying? Where the sun rises, there are Chinese, so it is normal for many people to come to cheer, and not only the Chinese here, but also the merchants or families in the domestic jewelry business will appear today. Brother Lin, this is all your credit. Zhou Botong praised sincerely.
"My merits?" Lin Tian wondered.
Zhou Botong said: "That's right, your performance in the Zhonghai City Gambling Stone Festival has been spread in the jewelry and jade world, and don't underestimate the attraction of the best jadeite." ”
"But ......" Zhou Botong turned: "There is also a downside, there are more people, and there are naturally more people with ghosts." For example, in the auction, the afternoon auction will be dominated by the jadeite of Tianxue Jewelry, but some jewelers such as the Bai family have also proposed that they will also provide a jadeite jewelry to participate in the auction, and finally rank the jewelers' jewelry according to the auction price to select the best jadeite in the world. ”
Lin Tian was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know, he had always been very relieved that the eldest lady was dealing with Tianxue Jewelry, so he basically didn't ask, he didn't expect there to be such a complicated matter.
This is obviously a ghost of the Bai family, because Tianxue Jewelry got so many superb jadeites from the Zhonghai City Gambling Stone Festival, and the limelight was too strong, and the Bai family united with some jewelers to suppress Tianxue Jewelry at the auction, which can be imagined with their butts.
"It seems that the Bai family is not giving up, it is an illusion that the Bai family has been so honest recently, but they are doing this in private, hum!" Lin Tian sneered and snorted.
"That is, the foundation of the Bai family is the jewelry shop, in the past, the Xiao family relied on the Bai family in terms of jewelry, and they could be safe at that time, but recently the Xiao family's actions are too big, once Tianxue Jewelry is established, there is a capital that threatens Bai's jewelry, and it is strange that the people of the Bai family are not in a hurry. Zhou Botong also analyzed.
He usually doesn't seem to be doing his job, but he actually sees things very thoroughly. However, he also said one thing wrong, that is, the Bai family and the Xiao family did not get along with each other before, and the Bai family has been planning to annex the Xiao family, but it has not succeeded.
Lin Tian didn't mention the past to Zhou Botong, but just took out his mobile phone and dialed a call.
"Brother Tian, we will arrive in Kyoto City at seven o'clock, what are your orders?"
"Rosie, you tell the ghost to lead all the brothers to the Tianfu Restaurant near Chinatown, where he is responsible for the security there. Lin Tian said indifferently.
"Okay, Brother Tian. Rosie didn't ask any reason at all, just agreed, and hung up.
Zhou Botong looked at Lin Tian in surprise, and said curiously: "Brother Lin, listen to you, you have your own strength?"
"It's a few good brothers, you'll know later, let's go in. Lin Tian didn't explain much, when we meet in the future, there will always be a day when we know.
"Hehe, don't worry, we have to wait for someone. Zhou Botong didn't ask much, between brothers, what they can say will naturally be said, and mentioning more will only make the brothers embarrassed, he still understands this truth.
"Damn, look at your shameless appearance, it must be your daughter-in-law, Ou Mengmeng is coming. Lin Tian quipped.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a dull sound of a car engine in the distance, which was low and deep, just like the sound of the snare drum beating when the ancient army was charging into battle, which made people's blood boil.
A red Bugatti Veyron appeared in the traffic, its arrogant and uninhibited appearance seemed to stand out from the crowd, comparing the sports cars around it, and the other boys' sports cars gave way to it, as if they were ashamed of themselves in front of it.
