Chapter 111: The Chi Family
Just as Rose continued to investigate deeply, she suddenly discovered a strange place.
The Zhang family, who specialize in the coal business, actually moved their family abroad eight years ago.
In her opinion, this time period is too sensitive, eight years ago, it happened to be the time when Mingyuan was framed and put in prison.
She still sent the information she had investigated to Mingyuan.
"It's interesting, I didn't expect it to be related to them."
Mingyuan looked at the information sent by the other party.
He was convinced that he had no connection with the Zhang family, which specialized in the coal business.
So why did the other party slander him?
"Keep checking, I always feel that there are big fish behind."
Mingyuan sent her a voice message.
Rose then went to investigate, and Mingyuan did not relax his vigilance here, he had a good relationship with these rich young masters in Shangjing.
He had a hunch that if nothing else, he might be in Shangjing for a little longer.
On the Rose side, the investigation along the line of Zhangjia, who started as a coal, found something unusual.
Why is it unusual? Because she actually found the traces of the Chi family.
When did the Chi family, one of the four major families in Shangjing, fall into contact with a Zhang family specializing in the coal business?
The grade status is there, and the two sides are connected, which is really ridiculous.
It's fine if it's an indirect connection, but they are a direct contact, and they even have business dealings.
Isn't that strange enough?
Rose collected all the clues she had investigated, and in the afternoon, she took the clues to the hotel where Mingyuan was.
Mingyuan was soaking in the hot spring at this time, and raised his eyes after hearing the movement.
"Got news?"
Rose didn't squint and nodded, "Something has indeed been investigated." ”
She handed the tablet to Mingyuan.
After reading these news, Mingyuan was a little puzzled.
"Okay, can you help me keep an eye on it, have you had any opportunities to contact the Chi family recently?"
He wondered in his heart, he had never been in contact with the Chi family, if this matter was really the hand of the Chi family, what was the idea?
It can only be said that Rose is worthy of Mingyuan's right-hand man, and she has already investigated the banquet that the Chi family will attend recently before Mingyuan orders.
"I've already investigated, the Chi family will be attending a charity dinner recently, and the invitation has already been received."
She handed the black gilded invitation to Mingyuan.
Mingyuan took the invitation casually and put it next to him.
"Good work."
"It's my honor to do things for the Black Emperor."
Rose spoke feverishly.
"The charity dinner is tomorrow night, and you and I will attend it together."
Mingyuan thought about it and spoke calmly.
Rose didn't expect to be able to attend a charity dinner with Mingyuan, and nodded excitedly.
"I see."
At six o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, Mingyuan was wearing a black suit with a red tie on the suit.
He grabbed his hair casually, watched as the stylist was styling her, and casually picked up the fashion magazine next to him.
On the cover of the magazine happens to be Mr. Qi's latest new work.
After waiting for a while, the shape of the rose was finally processed.
Mingyuan looked at her and felt a little amazing, he always knew that roses were good-looking, but he didn't expect to see them to such an extent.
Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, no wonder Akeno that guy just glanced at Rose and became fascinated by her.
I have to say that Akeno is still very tasteful.
Mingyuan took out his mobile phone and took a few photos of roses and sent them to Mingye.
The other party quickly replied: "Brother, what do you mean by this?" ”
It also comes with two pathetic memes.
"How about going to a charity dinner with her?"
Akeno hurriedly sent two thumbs-up emojis: "It's beautiful, by the way, brother, can I add her contact information?" ”
He spoke bitterly.
"When we return to Jiangcheng, you can tell her in person."
Although Rose is his subordinate, he also has to respect Rose's opinion.
After the two arrived at the charity dinner, Rose whispered in Mingyuan's ear the identity of the Chi family who came to participate in this charity dinner this time.
"The one who came here to attend the charity dinner was Chi Tinggang, the son of the Chi family, who is said to have been in the army before."
"It's the guy over there in a dark blue suit."
Mingyuan followed Rose's gaze and found a man with a shaved board, looking at him like an agile cheetah.
It should be true to say that he was in the army.
Chi Tinggang didn't have many opportunities to show his face outside, and no matter how much news there was, Rose didn't find out.
Chi Tinggang seemed to sense that someone was staring at him, and raised his head to look at Mingyuan's side with sharp eyes.
He Mingyuan narrowed his eyes after looking at each other, and there was a dangerous glint in his eyes.
The charity dinner will inevitably auction off things, and the proceeds from the auction will be donated to the children in the mountains.
Rose sent what they had specially prepared backstage.
Ming Yuan observed Chi Tinggang from a distance and found that he seemed to be interested in a calligraphy and painting of the Ming Dynasty.
The target of this time here should also be that calligraphy and painting.
Mingyuan looked at the calligraphy and painting from a distance, his eyes narrowed.
Soon, the presenter took the stage.
The highlight of this charity dinner soon began, which was to auction off something.
Mingyuan silently watched one lot after another on the side.
Soon came to the calligraphy and painting of the Ming Dynasty.
The competition in front was very fierce, and the auction price soared from 100,000 to 4.6 million.
Mingyuan saw that it was almost now, and raised his head to six million.
As soon as Mingyuan's price came out, the people who were bound to win this painting also stopped bidding.
The main reason is that the price given by Mingyuan has exceeded the value of this painting.
For the rest of the lots, Mingyuan didn't do it, he wasn't interested in those things.
When he was bidding, Liu Yilin looked up at him and found that it was Mingyuan, and felt a little puzzled.
I don't understand, why did Mingyuan shoot that thing?
It's just a calligraphy and painting, and there is no need to raise the price so high.
But Mingyuan spent his own money, and he didn't have a position to explain it.
Until the end of the auction, when he was traveling freely, Chi Tinggang took the initiative to find Mingyuan.
"You're Mr. Ming, aren't you?"
He spoke with a gentle face.
But no matter how kind he is, the whole person has a sense of slaughter.
"It's me, hello Mr. Chi."
Mingyuan smiled and said hello to him.
Chi Tinggang narrowed his eyes, and then spoke: "The painting that Mr. Ming just photographed, can you cut love?" ”
"Do you mean that Ming Dynasty calligraphy and painting?"
Mingyuan pretended to be puzzled.
"Yes, my old man likes calligraphy and painting in the Ming Dynasty, and I came here this time for that painting, you can rest assured that the price you will not lose."
Chi Tinggang thought about it and deliberately emphasized it.
It is impossible to really make Mingyuan suffer.
He didn't bid with Mingyuan at that time, because he was worried that the price would be inflated.
