Chapter 334: The Story of the Teapot
Today's weather is exceptionally good, with bright sunshine and clear skies.
The view of the farm was unobstructed, and although the temperature was very low, Mo Mingxue, who got up early in the morning, ran out to have fun.
There are also prosperous wealth and them who are happy with her, and now they can't be called three little ones, because they have grown up.
Whether it's the sledding trio Alaskan Wonder and Samoyed Ball, or the Labrador Bullet, these three dogs can adapt to this snowy weather.
"Brother-in-law, are we going hunting today?"
Mo Mingxue who arrived at the farm yesterday, she liked it here, and it was such a good weather today, not going out to hunt, it was really a good time.
Before Su Ming could speak, the voice of his mother-in-law Yang Si came from behind him:
"It's okay to hunt, but only this afternoon, we'll go back tonight!"
Get back?
Of course, I have returned to China, and it has been two or three days since I arrived in the beautiful country, and my two daughters are studying, so I can't delay it for too long.
And Su Ming also has something to do here, so naturally it is impossible to disturb it all the time.
In addition, Yang Si himself also has a company in China, and he definitely can't leave for too long, so it's just right to go back today.
"Ah!! It's only been three days, and people haven't had enough fun....." When Mo Mingxue heard this, she was immediately unhappy, and pouted to express her displeasure.
Su Ming also hurriedly said: "If Auntie is not in a hurry, you can wait a few more days, I will almost be able to finish things in the past two days, and we will go back together when the time comes!" ”
Mo Mingxue was happy in an instant, and looked at her mother with anticipation, but she was disappointed because her mother still refused.
It's not reasonable at all, huh!
Looking at Mo Mingxue, who stamped away, Yang Si smiled, didn't say anything, turned his head and went back to the house.
"You're going back home in two days?"
Mo Weiyu, who came out of the living room, looked at Su Ming with some reluctance and asked softly.
In the past, she still felt that Su Ming's boyfriend was dispensable, at most, when she thought of him when she was bored, she could have a ripple in her heart.
But now it was different, and Su Ming's traces in her heart became very clear.
Especially in the recent period, she has tasted the happiness of being a woman. If it weren't for her great perseverance, I am afraid she would not have been able to stay in the library for retreat and practice.
With Su Ming by her side, she doesn't need to worry about many things, and she already relies on him. Seeing him talking and laughing with his family, she felt that she was the happiest woman.
But now that she heard that he was going back, of course she was very reluctant.
Su Ming stepped forward to hug her and said softly: "Well, when Mo Shiying and the others come over, and after Li Junhao's affairs are dealt with, I will go back, probably in the past two or three days......
Why don't you go back with me?" Actually, it's ...... to do a PhD."
Hearing that Su Ming wanted to dispel her determination to continue her doctoral studies, she suddenly interrupted him:
"No, anyway, it's November now, and it's not a few months before the New Year, so can you come and pick me up for the New Year?"
She looked at Su Ming affectionately, her eyes full of anticipation.
This coquettish tone made Su Ming almost unable to control it, after all, she rarely spoiled.
Mo Weiyu's appearance is very, very high, and she is Su Ming's heart, and on weekdays, she is just like the exterminator, with a relatively cold expression.
That is, when facing him, she will have more smiles on her face, but she is also rarely coquettish.
The big beauty is coquettish, and the lethality is off the charts!
One move is to retreat into advance, but I didn't expect to unlock her coquettish skills, Su Ming's heart was so happy that it bubbled.
"Okay, this year is around the end of January, and I'll come and pick you up in advance..."
Then the two became so intimate, and Hu Xuena, who had just come out next to her, saw this scene and immediately blushed.
When she went out hunting in the morning, Mo Mingxue's interest was not high, but when she saw Su Ming hunting a few rabbits and elk, she immediately yelled happily.
She didn't carry a shotgun, because she couldn't shoot, she just wore thick body armor and protective clothing, and ran along on horseback.
The equestrian skills of the Mo family are very good, because of the relationship between the family, the two sisters have been clothed and fed since they were children, and they naturally understand high-end sports such as horseback riding and golf.
However, the gun in Mo Weiyu's hand barely fired, and it became a burning stick.
In the words of Buddhism, it means that with good intentions, you can't bear to kill.
is not like Su Ming, who has no taboos and lives freely.
At noon, it was supposed to be a time for a camping barbecue, but the sky began to drift with light snow, and looking at the northern sky, it was full of dark clouds.
Therefore, everyone had to go home, and the province was trapped here by heavy snow.
When he got home, Lin Huizhu came up and said that Li Junhao had arrived.
Hey, this Li Junhao came quite quickly, he only told the other party about this yesterday, and he came to the door so early today.
You know, it's hundreds of kilometers away from the Big Apple, and who wouldn't want to sleep a little more in the middle of winter?
So, to be able to come to the door at twelve o'clock, this guy must have gotten up early.
In the living room, Su Ming finally saw Li Junhao, and laughed as soon as they met:
"Hello Mr. Li, I'm really sorry, I didn't know you came here so early, I knew I wouldn't go hunting...."
The latter hurriedly stood up and said that it didn't matter, it was he who disturbed.
After some pleasantries, the two sat down and began to talk.
Su Ming was straight to the point, and did not hide his attention and love for talents, and also bluntly said that the other party did not open conditions.
Although Li Junhao has always been mixed in school and has not worked hard in society, this does not mean that he is stupid.
For Su Ming's words, he almost gave up.
If he directly offers an annual salary of 100 million US dollars, I am afraid that this chat will have to end early.
So for these false and generous hypocrisy, he is also transparent in his heart, and at the same time, he also understands that he has a few catties and a few taels.
Think tank, as modern people say, in ancient times, was the staff.
Almost all of the famous figures in history have staff, and even ordinary prefect officials have such staff.
For Li Junhao, becoming a staff member is also an option, but he has to see if this boss is worth following him.
His understanding of Su Ming was just a quick glance last night, knowing that Su Ming was very rich, and he threw more than 100 million US dollars at last night's auction.
"I don't know what business Mr. Su has under his name now?"
After thinking for a while, Li Junhao finally asked a question.
He is a very cautious person, otherwise he would not have worked all the way from nobody to the current Harvard full professor.
The value of this professorship is very high, that is, the salary is average.
People like him are the middle class with half a foot in the rich class, so they need to pay taxes.
The taxes and fees in the beautiful country are very high, especially for middle-class income earners like him, who come from China, and the tax rate is even more ridiculously high.
After paying taxes, then his income plummeted, almost to the bottom of the middle class.
This is also why, when he faced the Ming Dynasty colorful teapot last night, he couldn't afford to bid at all.
It's not easy to live at Harvard.
"Mr. Li shouldn't have been back to China for a few years, right? Most of my businesses are based in China, and they are all emerging companies....."
Su Ming smiled, he didn't believe that the other party hadn't checked his information, after all, Lin Huizhu must have told the other party about him.
Otherwise, he, Li Junhao, would stupidly come to a farm hundreds of kilometers away early in the morning to meet a stranger?
That's really it, the main Li Junhao's purpose is the Ming Dynasty colorful teapot that Su Ming photographed last night.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they met, Su Ming brought up the matter of the staff, which caught him off guard.
Douyin? Joy Capital?
When Li Junhao heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he was not a person who didn't pay attention to the news.
To be precise, he is not an ordinary old pedant, he only knows how to work hard, and he also pays attention to the outside world, especially the news from Huaguo.
At present, he only got a green card from a beautiful country, and did not join the nationality here, because he didn't want to join, just for money.
Although the tax in the beautiful country is very high, the salary is really high, much higher than in the country.
He is not the kind of cutting-edge master in the field of scientific research, otherwise he would come to Harvard to be a professor, which would be an act of hostility.
Speaking of which, he is still a little sad, as a professor in several fields such as economics and applied mathematics, he is also an authority in this regard.
But in reality, he couldn't make money on Wall Street and other places.
It's so hard!
Because he invested several times, but it was all because of greed, and he ended up ruining everything.
After that, he was bitten by a snake and was afraid of the well rope for ten years, and he never touched it again.
But he still pays attention to the record of Happy Capital some time ago, and he is also enthusiastic.
Therefore, when Su Ming just said that Happy Capital is the company under his name, Li Junhao was so shocked.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Su, you are indeed a genius, at least in terms of making money, you are this...."Li Junhao gave a thumbs up, his face was full of admiration, and then said:
"I'm sorry to ask you, this year's Gui Geng?"
"I'm ninety-three, and I'm twenty-three years old this year!"
Hiss!
Li Junhao was even more surprised, and continued to ask a question, Su Ming couldn't answer the question of how much he was worth, after all, there were a lot of scattered assets, and some of them were valuations, so it was not easy to determine.
Of course, the exact number can't be said, but the approximate number is still okay.
Such a private question, under normal circumstances, of course Su Ming would not answer, but the other party is Li Junhao, a talent he wants, so it doesn't matter.
A net worth of nearly 10 billion US dollars?
And just a twenty-three-year-old young man?
It's not a joke, is it?
But looking at Su Ming's calm and calm appearance, Li Junhao was not calm at all.
However, he didn't say yes immediately, but needed to think about it, and at the same time he also bluntly said that his mind is a little messy now, and he is afraid that he agreed in a hurry under impulse, and it will not be beautiful to regret it later.
In this regard, Su Ming expressed his understanding and did not urge the other party.
This topic stopped, and Li Junhao took the opportunity to talk about last night's auction, and then talked about the Ming Dynasty colorful teapot.
"Oh, I don't know why Mr. Li likes that teapot so much? Is there a secret behind it? ”
Su Ming raised his doubts, and he was also puzzled in his heart.
After all, the investigation report obtained from Lin Huizhu shows that this Li Junhao has been chasing this teapot for many years.
As early as ten years ago, Li Junhao had stayed in the Sun Never Setting Empire, and it happened that the teapot had also appeared in the fog at that time.
If this teapot has no secrets, Su Ming definitely doesn't believe it.
But what is the reason why Li Junhao is so persistent?
saw a bitter smile on Li Junhao's face, and then his voice was hoarse and sad:
"It's also a shame to say that this set of teapots is an ancestral heirloom, inherited from the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, and was later snatched away by the Eight-Nation Alliance.....
Originally, the family didn't care about it, but then the family plummeted, and even many people died because of it, which attracted everyone's attention.....
To tell you the truth, the Li family has been passed down for four generations, and if I don't find the colorful teapot, I may not live to be fifty years old, just like my father......"
it!
Su Ming was dumbfounded when he heard this, is there such a magical thing?
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, can't you become a refiner? How can there be such a fantastical thing? Or is this made up by Li Junhao?
Immediately, Su Ming remembered that Li Junhao had a son, and only one son, not even a daughter.
This special meow is amazing.
That set of teapots is still in the safe in Su Ming's study, and he hasn't opened it since he bought it last night.
However, at the auction before, Su Ming remembered that the host said that this set of teapots had been passed on to the Sunset Empire a long time ago, and it was not at all the end of the Qing Dynasty as Li Junhao said.
In response to Su Ming's question, Li Junhao smiled bitterly:
"It's also a shame for the family, because of the war, a lot of information was lost.
However, one thing is for sure, the auction house said that the Ming Dynasty has been spread to the empire on which the sun never sets, and it must be false......
At this point, in fact, Mr. Su can also check the wild history or the official history, and my Li family ancestor is also a little famous....."
Seeing that the other party was talking about things, Su Ming also felt very strange, he didn't think that the other party dared to deceive him.
And the Li family is so anxious about this set of teapots, is there any other story in it?
But now he was curious, and he wanted to open it to see what was magical.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I didn't expect this to happen....."
Expressing sympathy, Su Ming then asked curiously, how glorious is the ancestor of the Li family?
Recalling this, Li Junhao's expression became much more excited.
According to him, since the great ancestor received this set of teapots from the Yongle Emperor, he has always loved it.
Most of the descendants are officials, and even the feudal officials have produced several of them, and the family has become extremely prosperous for a time.
It's just that since the Eight-Nation Alliance, not to mention the family, even the family has been shattered.
After listening to the other party, Su Ming nodded, this may be just a story, but it is also very likely to be a real thing.
Judging from Li Junhao's extraordinary IQ, Su Ming felt that the truth of this matter was greater.
But no matter what, this matter is also a thing of the past, people, we should still look forward.
"Well, Mr. Li, if you agree to join, after a year, this teapot will be returned to its original owner."
"Really?"
Li Junhao was overjoyed, and after receiving Su Ming's re-nod to confirm, he suddenly calmed down.
Then he stood up and said:
"Mr. Su, thank you for your fancies, please rest assured, I will definitely consider it seriously, and I will give you an answer within a week...."
Su Minghun waved his hand indifferently, indicating that it didn't matter, he could understand.
Then Li Junhao offered to leave, and Su Ming let the other party go back.
Looking at Li Junhao's car leaving, Lin Huizhu asked curiously, is it done?
Su Ming was talking to the other party privately just now, and there were only the two of them in the living room, so Lin Huizhu didn't know the situation.
Shaking his head, Su Ming didn't speak, and then said to Lin Huizhu:
"You hurry up and rent a house in the Big Apple, and as soon as Mo Shiying and the others arrive, they will immediately put them into work.....
This must be done as soon as possible, and we can't wait....."
Michael's arrogant face was still hovering in Su Ming's mind, which made him very urgent in his heart.
In fact, what he is afraid of is not Michael as a person, but the energy represented behind Michael.
The strength of Wall Street giants is innate.
Anyone who has watched Hollywood movies knows that the country of America is very domineering and arrogant, and the words pride and prejudice are just about it.
"Okay, boss, don't worry, I will!"
Lin Huizhu didn't feel like this in his heart, but he couldn't be anxious, so he could only take one step at a time.
Following a boss like Su Ming, she feels that she is very lucky, and at the same time, she needs to work harder.
Ji Siyao's current Weibo acquisition, and Mo Shiying's secret channel that she is about to be responsible for, all of which make her very hot.
She is almost going to become Su Ming's life assistant, but the life assistant is almost the existence of a microphone and being forced to eat dog food, so it is better to be in charge of a project.
Watching Su Ming sprinkle dog food with other women every day, her heart almost collapsed, if it weren't for her big heart, she wouldn't have been able to do it a long time ago.
Su Ming didn't notice the little assistant's resentment at all, went to the dining room to have dinner with Mo Weiyu's family, and went fishing on the other side of the lake in the afternoon.
Fishing is a sport that can be fun, but for Mo Mingxue, it's really sad.
Because while fishing, she also has to memorize words at the same time.
"Brother-in-law, why do you always carry this teapot? Keep looking, can you see the flowers? ”
Seeing Su Ming looking at the colorful teapot in his hand again, Mo Mingxue muttered again, but Mo Hengle scolded her in a low voice:
"Don't mess around, what teapot? It's an antique, it's very precious! ”
The teapot is very exquisite, and it is a complete set, Su Ming took it in his hand and looked at it, and he couldn't see anything famous at all.
There were several other teacups in the safe, and Su Ming took them out one by one and looked at them carefully, but he couldn't see anything.
"Forget it, go back and make tea in the evening!"
"Tyrannical creatures!" When Mo Hengle heard this, he immediately wanted to scold his mother, but was pulled by Yang Si:
"This is Su Ming's teapot, why are you worrying so much? If you have the ability, you can buy it yourself! ”
Mo Hengle's tiger eyes suddenly widened: "If I had money, I would have bought it a long time ago!" ”
I really don't have any money, a set of teapots costs fifteen million dollars, which is nearly 100 million soft girl coins, who is willing to give up?
"Don't have any money and are still here?"
Being scolded by Yang Si, Mo Hengle suddenly stopped squeaking, but looked at the teapot with regret and regret.
Such a precious treasure, this has been hundreds of years, and it still can't escape the fate of being brewed, poor teapot.
Regarding the interaction between the two elders, Su Ming and the other young people didn't see it, but they smiled in their hearts.
The older generation is really affectionate, and in the small things, the old man will let the old grandmother, big things, well, basically nothing big, so it's okay to listen to the old grandmother.
