Chapter 183: Upper Dinner

Judge Warren Foster was obviously dressed up deliberately today, with some kind of hairspray on his hair, and Zhou Yu smelled a strange smell before he got close.

After shaking hands with his old friend from Chinatown, Warren lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Roosevelt is entertaining a few distinguished guests, and he will be here in a moment." ”

Zhou Yu nodded and began to gather a large number of banquet halls tonight.

He swept his gaze around the hall, and finally looked at the various crystal chandeliers dotted with stars above, and the faint patterns on the ceiling.

Patterned tapestries hang on the walls around it, and a valuable oil painting hangs at intervals between the tapestries, with stone statues, vases, ancient armor and other decorations between the paintings, making Zhou Yu feel as if he has entered the Metropolitan Museum.

In the center of the hall are two long dining tables with white tablecloths, and at the moment there are some beautiful and small sweets, cakes and nut drinks, etc., on the table, and the real staple meal should not be pushed up.

"Judge Warren, whose house is this mansion?"

Warren Foster moved closer to Zhou Yu and said in a low voice, "Do you see the group of people in front?" The old man with more white hair than me, but with a ruddy face, is the owner of this mansion, Nelson Morgan, the real power of the Morgan consortium, but tonight is a banquet hosted by Roosevelt, as for why he is holding this banquet, I think you should have some idea in your heart. ”

Zhou Yu sighed and said: "Franklin is really generous, the real power figures of the Morgan consortium are willing to lend him the mansion for dinner, hasn't he already retired from his position?" ”

Before Judge Warren could explain to him, he heard a brisk voice coming from far and near.

"Bruce~~~ see you again, you've been showing up at the upper echelons of New York lately~~ How are you, are your injuries better?"

Zhou Yu didn't even need to look, just by listening to the footsteps, he knew that it was the energetic girl again, Rosa Christine.

"That's what I'm supposed to ask, aren't you a busy reporter? I'm here with my dad today? ”

Rosa wore a light yellow off-the-shoulder dress today, which further complimented his unusually fair skin and radiant radiance.

"No way, my mother is not in good health, but whenever there is such a party, let me accompany my father, of course, on the other hand, my task is to help my mother keep an eye on my father, so that he will not be taken away by some vixen at the party."

Zhou Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed and said, "Fox spirit? Where did you learn this term? ”

"Hahaha~~~ Of course, I heard it from Chinatown, once I met the hostess of two shops arguing, and one of them said that the other person was a vixen, and I thought it was very interesting so I checked it out."

"That's not an elegant word." Zhou Yu shook his head helplessly.

Speaking of this, Rosa held the hem of her skirt with both hands, which was easy to step on, and asked in a low voice:

"Mr. Zhou, has you found the gunman who assassinated you? Who did it? If the murderer has been discovered, remember to sell me first-hand information, we're friends, aren't we? ”

Zhou Yu looked over with a question mark on his face, and he really didn't know what words to use to describe this girl.

"Friends? Have you ever seen a friend who was shot and hospitalized and didn't come to visit, and when they met, they let me break the news of the murderer? ”

"Oops~ I also want to see you, but my mother said that I am an unmarried young girl, and you are a single man, if you go to the hospital to visit and be photographed by other reporters, it is easy to affect the reputation of both of us, although I told her that we often drink coffee together, but she said that drinking coffee is different."

"You should listen to your own mother." Zhou Yu replied noncommittally.

Speaking of this, Zhou Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Rosa, I saw a friend, let's talk later." ”

"Well, if you'd like, my dad would like to talk to you."

"No problem, didn't we all say it, we're friends."

Rosa happily bared her neat white teeth, turned around and walked back to her father with her skirt slightly clumsy in her hand.

Zhou Yu poked Judge Warren with his elbow and said, "Councilor Morton is also here, I'll go over and say hello." ”

Not far away, Congressman Gilbert Moulton, with silver hair combed back, gold-rimmed glasses, and a university professor's temperament, was talking to another man in a whisper.

"Good evening, Councilor Moulton, I haven't seen you in a while, you look good, and your work must be going well, right?"

Seeing Zhou Yu coming, Councilor Morton looked him up and down a few times, a look of surprise flashed on his face, and soon said to the adults around him:

"Carl, this is what I told you about Bruce Week before, just like you, we are the best of our young generation in New York, you young people need to communicate more together, and it will be boring to stay with old guys like us."

Next to Congressman Morton stood a young man about 1.8 meters tall, with a thin body and short blond hair.

He saw a light in Zhou Yu's eyes and said, "Oh~~ You are Bruce Zhou?" I didn't expect you to be so young, and your Dragon Chamber of Commerce can be regarded as a big customer in our trust guarantee company~! ”

Zhou Yu stretched out his hand and shook it with the other party with great interest, and said, "Could it be ...... Are you part of the Morgan consortium? ”

Councillor Morton duly introduced: "Carl is a rising star of the Morgan family, their trust company is considering transformation, and he is worried about this as a new senior executive of the company, I recommend that he can talk to you more, but I have heard that the successor of Ford Company just drank coffee with you a few times, and then took back a sketch that is said to be very valuable, and let Ford cars grow by leaps and bounds in just one month, developing a new car that is more practical, beautiful and comfortable than the Model T." ”

"Mr. Zhou, I must take up some of your time today, please allow me to talk to you alone."

Carl Morgan said with a smile, half-jokingly, half-seriously pressing one hand to his chest.

Zhou Yu also half-jokingly replied: "Of course you can, but sir, my consulting fee is not cheap." ”

"Hahaha~ As long as Mr. Zhou can give advice similar to Ford, I am willing to pay more consulting fees~!"

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Councilor Morton pulled Zhou Yu into a corner where no one was around, and said in a low voice: "How is the gunshot wound on the body?" ”

"Thank you, Mr. Councillor, for your concern, it's almost fine, it's no big deal."

Zhou Yu said and moved his shoulders.

"That's good, I'm still thinking about taking time to visit your guild hall someday."

"Don't dare, Councilor Moulton does big things related to people's livelihood every day, I don't dare to delay your precious time as a small businessman, in addition, please rest assured, the business of the Chamber of Commerce is developing steadily, and I have prepared the dividend at the end of the month, and I will let the finance hit your account when I go back today."

The expression on Councillor Moulton's face did not change in the slightest, and he nodded imperceptibly: "Bruce, has anyone told you that you will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future!" Of course, you know I don't just mean the business side. ”

"Hehehe~ That also depends on the support and help of Councillor Moulton, there is an old saying in our hometown, called drinking water and thinking about the source, I will not forget how I developed the Chamber of Commerce to this point."
