Along the way, Zhou Ping also liked Chen Yanbing's manor very much, the whole manor is full of low-key and luxury, ingenuity, and an absolute design master.

It is estimated that the design cost alone is not a decimal number, let alone the construction cost.

Zhou Ping said with admiration: "Brother, it seems that you really know how to enjoy life, this manor is very good, it can be described as a quiet and restful, it is indeed very good! It is estimated that it will take at least two or three years to complete the construction, right?"

"Haha! Brother Zhou is really an expert, the construction of this manor took nearly three years to complete, although it is not the work of the famous Chinese architect Mr. I.M. Pei, but it was also supervised by the disciple he recommended. Chen Yanbing said with a smile.

Zhou Ping squinted his eyes and nodded thoughtfully: "Oh, it turned out to be the work of Mr. I.M. Pei's disciple, so it's no wonder." ”

As an architectural designer, Mr. Pei is also Zhou Ping's idol.

Originally from Suzhou and born in Guangzhou, the Chinese-American architect studied architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University.

He was the recipient of the 1979 American Institute of Architects Gold Medal, the 1981 French Gold Medal for Architecture, the 1989 Japan Imperial Prize, the 5th Pritzker Prize in 1983, and the 1986 Medal of Freedom from President Ronald Reagan.

His works are mainly public buildings, cultural and educational buildings, and are classified as modernist buildings, making good use of steel, concrete, glass and stone.

His representative works include the East Wing of the National Gallery in Washington, D.C., and the expansion of the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, and is known as "the last master of modern architecture".

Unless there is a special relationship, Mr. Pei basically does not accept orders for private construction.

He has a lot of disciples, but the people who can get his recommendation are obviously not bad.

This is obviously also because of Chen Yanbing's face as a top rich man of Chinese descent.

"Brother, I plan to give you this manor, and please don't shirk!" Chen Yanbing suddenly said with a sincere face.

When Zhou Ping heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then waved his hand and said, "Brother, this manor is indeed very good, but I'm afraid I can't accept your kindness!"

"Why?" Chen Yanbing obviously didn't expect Zhou Ping to refuse directly, and couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Ping shook his head and said casually: "Brother, I understand what you mean, I understand your kindness." But if you think of me as your own family, don't talk about it again!"

Although the manor is good, it really doesn't mean much to Zhou Ping, if there is a real demand, just come and live.

Chen Yanbing is also a bold and free character, and he saw that Zhou Ping really didn't want to accept this manor, and after a while of thinking in his heart, he didn't say anything more.

It's just that people like Chen Yanbing deeply understand the truth that the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, not to mention that this time Zhou Ping risked his life to save his life.

So, no matter what you say, you have to find a way to repay it in the future.

Chen Yanbing's wife and children are all in the United States, not in Bangkok, so there is no family in Thailand except for him and his bodyguards.

If it weren't for the company, he usually doesn't go back to Thailand often, and most of them spend his leisure vacations in the United States, accompanying his children and wife.

Soon, several people arrived in the hall of the manor, where a large round table had been prepared, and the local specialties had been laid out in advance.

Several young and beautiful girls, with smiles on their faces, stood at the table very dignified and waited for the arrival of the host and guests.

"Brother Zhou, please take a seat!" Chen Yanbing greeted Zhou Ping and Rekleya very warmly.

After seeing the guest and the host sit down, the girl next to her quickly poured a glass of red wine for each of them.

"Come on, Brother Zhou, Miss Leclay, I toast you, if you don't get drunk today!"

Looking at the fragrant and dazzling delicacies on the table, Zhou Ping and Lekleya also moved their index fingers.

"Brother Chen, let's go together!"

After some staggering, Zhou Ping naturally talked about the Black Death again.

"Brother, although I found the killer this time and interrogated him, I didn't get any useful information!"

"The mastermind behind this matter hasn't been found out yet, so you'd better be careful lately and pay attention to your own safety!"

Chen Yanbing nodded thoughtfully, this is indeed a matter worth paying attention to.

No one would joke with their lives, especially a wealthy man like him.

After being silent for a while, Chen Yanbing said with some embarrassment: "Brother Zhou, brother, I'm really a little sorry for you! I originally wanted to invite you over to have a good time, but I didn't expect that not only did I not let you have a good time, but I made you worry so much because of my business!"

Putting down the wine glass, Zhou Ping looked at Chen Yanbing and said, "Brother, what are you talking about, it's too outstanding." Let's be considered brothers, so if the family doesn't talk to each other, your business is not my business? If I am in trouble one day, will you not help me?"

Chen Yanbing saw that Zhou Ping was so sincere, and nodded heavily: "That's right, if Brother Zhou encounters anything, please be sure to contact me, and I will do my part." ”

Zhou Ping could see that Chen Yanbing really wanted to repay himself, so he nodded and said: "Haha! If there is really that day, I will definitely call you for help as soon as possible! When the time comes, don't shirk it!"

This time it was Chen Yanbing's private banquet, and he didn't invite anyone else except for inviting Zhou Ping and Rekleya, so the three of them didn't have any scruples at the table and chatted very happily.

Especially Chen Yanbing knew that Zhou Ping was a person who knew wine, so he directly took out the most valuable treasures in his wine cellar for him to taste.

Full of wine and food, the guests and hosts were happy, and Chen Yanbing took Zhou Ping around his manor again.

Later, he took Zhou Ping to his horse farm, introduced him to his BMW, and invited him and Rekleya to try the fun of horseback riding.

When Zhou Ping said that he didn't know much, Chen Yanbing was about to guide him, and Lei Kelia took the initiative to ask Ying and personally instructed Zhou Ping.

With his strong physical fitness and learning ability, Zhou Ping quickly learned the basic skills of horseback riding and experienced the fun of riding a horse in their surprised eyes.

As for Rekleya, he is obviously trained professionally and systematically and is considered a good rider.

After seeing Zhou Ping's perverted learning ability, he also had a whim and showed off a good wave in front of him.

Zhou Ping learned a lot of skills, but did not make more difficult attempts.

After all, the performance just now is already amazing, and there is no need to stimulate the two in front of you anymore.

Chen Yanbing's manor is indeed very large, integrating leisure and entertainment, and living has become secondary.

It is a very nice place to have a quiet, relaxed atmosphere and a racecourse where you can race horses in high spirits.

This can't help but make Zhou Ping also have the idea of building a manor in his mind.

Of course, architects don't have to work with others, and of course they have to design their own places to live, which is one of his dreams.

After the manor was over, Chen Yanbing took Zhou Ping and Rekleya to his collection room and asked him to palm his collection of antiques.

Although Zhou Ping estimated that the other party's collection would definitely not be less before he came, after coming to the collection room, he was still a little shocked by the dazzling array of antiques in front of him.

I saw that in the spacious collection room, all kinds of ancient cultural relics of all sizes were placed in an orderly manner.

It is as big as the heavy weapons such as Yuan blue and white and bronze tripods, and as small as some exquisite antiques such as pocket watches and jade bracelets.

More than 190 percent of them are Chinese antiques, and only a very small part are foreign.

It can be seen that Chen Yanbing, a wealthy Chinese who emigrated overseas, still has a very deep affection for Chinese art.

This is undoubtedly a recognition of blood and culture.

After Zhou Ping's careful and meticulous appraisal, it was found that all the antiques he had here were genuine, and none of them were fakes.

If the auction is carried out at the current market price, it is estimated that all the antiques in his collection will be auctioned off, and it will not be less than 1.5 billion US dollars.

"Brother, it took a lot of effort and time for your collection here, right?" Zhou Ping said with a sigh after putting down a piece of jade pendant in his hand.

"Haha! Brother Zhou, what you said is right, I did spend a lot of time and energy collecting these things, and I finally got the results in front of me. And some of them belong to my father's collection, that is, the batch of Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain. My father was particularly fond of Chinese porcelain. Because he said that the English translation of Huaxia is porcelain, we scattered overseas descendants of Yan and Huang should always leave a little thought. ”

Zhou Ping didn't speak, just nodded silently, as if recalling what Chen Yanbing had just said.

After Chen Yanbing laughed twice, he pointed to the antiques around him and said, "Influenced by my father, I have been collecting some things one after another since I was in my twenties. But at that time, it was just a small fight, and there was no real boutique at all. ”

"It wasn't until I left the army and started doing business that I ran around the world and finally came across a lot of favorite treasures, and I couldn't help but buy them. It's been about 20 years now. ”

Zhou Ping gave Chen Yanbing a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Chen, I didn't expect you to be so persistent in this regard, and I see that most of the objects in your collection room are antiques that belong to Huaxia." ”

Chen Yanbing nodded: "Indeed, most of these things are from China, and only a few are from Thailand! Because my mother believes in Buddhism, I also worship Buddha. ”

Chen Yanbing said as he folded his hands and greeted Zhou Ping slightly.

Zhou Ping had long known that Chen Yanbing was a Buddhist, which could be seen from the accessories on his hands and some of his behavior.

For these things in his collection room, Chen Yanbing is also very fond and proud.

Otherwise, even if he had money, he would not have spent so much money and energy to collect these.

Top tycoons like them have detached themselves from the level of vassal elegance, and they don't need to use these things to fill the façade at all.

And if you want to collect so many things, you can't get them in one place, you have to go to auctions in many countries or buy them from private people.

This inevitably takes a lot of time and effort.

For Chen Yanbing, who has all kinds of opportunities, it is not easy for a person who wants to be broken into two people to use.

Only true love can drive him to persist for decades.

In Chen Yanbing's collection room, Zhou Ping chatted with him about antiques again.

While they were chatting energetically, Zhou Ping's phone suddenly rang.

Looking at the name displayed on the phone, Zhou Ping raised his eyebrows and showed a smile.

"Hey, Brother Feng, what reminds you of calling me?" pressed the answer button, and Zhou Ping asked directly without waiting for the other party to speak.

Feng Zhiwei's hearty laughter rang on the other end of the phone: "Haha, Brother Zhou, it's not your gust of wind blowing yet! I heard that you have been playing in Thailand Lao Chen recently, since you have all come, why don't you also go around my side?"

Hearing that Feng Zhiwei actually took the initiative to invite him, Zhou Ping was not too surprised.

Anyway, he had already come to Thailand, and he originally had the idea of going to neighboring countries to take a look.

After all, after the matter on Japan's side is dealt with, he has to go back to the United States to explain the finish, even if he is ready to let himself go in the future, I am afraid that the time to come to Southeast Asia will be slightly delayed.

Now Feng Zhiwei took the initiative to invite, which can be regarded as the heart of Zhou Ping.

Otherwise, he plans to go to Malaysia.

Zhou Ping laughed and replied, "Brother Feng, when will you go back to Malaysia?"

When Wang Zhixin was eating in Los Angeles, Zhou Ping knew that his main industry was in Malaysia, and he also had a pivotal role in shipping in the Strait of Malacca.

Don't talk about black and white, even those invincible pirates have to give him face.

Feng Zhiwei said with a smile: "I just returned to Malaysia for two days, and I heard that you were in Japan some time ago, but I didn't expect you to be in Thailand now. I'll come over tomorrow for a meal and invite you to Malaysia?"

Zhou Ping took the phone and looked at Chen Yanbing, who also smiled and nodded, as if he was not surprised by Feng Zhiwei's call.

Thinking that Feng Zhiwei was also angry with him, or simply because he solved this matter, Chen Yanbing took the initiative to call to inform him.

Zhou Ping could probably guess Chen Yanbing's intentions.

This time, it was Zhou Ping who helped get the cobbler, and on the surface the matter was over, but there were still a lot of follow-ups to deal with.

In any case, Zhou Ping was also a guest invited by him Chen Yanbing, but he was involved in this kind of attack involving underground organizations.

Out of politeness, Chen Yanbing certainly didn't want Zhou Ping to continue tossing about this matter.

Zhou Ping also believed that with Chen Yanbing's ability, he would definitely be able to properly handle the next things.

Thinking about this section, Zhou Ping immediately said: "That's good, I'll go to Brother Feng's place to have fun when the time comes!"

Hearing Zhou Ping's promise, Feng Zhiwei smiled heartily: "Haha! Then it's decided, I'll come and pick you up tomorrow!"

"Okay, Brother Feng, then we'll see you tomorrow!"

Hanging up the phone, Zhou Ping looked at Chen Yanbing and asked, "Brother Chen, you already knew that Brother Feng had returned to Malaysia?"
