Xu Ting noticed that the land to the east had not been around for a day or two. His temper is quite a bit like the new and the old, which can also be seen from his bed partner who changes every three days. The business of the cafeteria has been relatively stable since it was on track, and there were no major storms. A large number of franchise authorizations have almost entered a saturated state, and he has other thoughts. Later, it was found that there is a piece of land of about 1,000 mu in Donglin Town, with mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery. It is only a three-hour drive from K City. Thinking of taking it down and making it a high-end resort. The reason why he wanted to cooperate with Song Huanian was because Xu Ting had no experience in resorting, and Song Huanian already had several mature industries in his hands, and the second reason was that the area to the east was really sensitive. In recent years, with the intensification of urbanization, the scarcity of surrounding land resources has become more serious. Donglin has such a piece of fat, and there are not many coveted wolves. Until now, this piece of meat has been left intact and no one dares to touch it. Naturally, there is a reason.
To the east, to the east.
Without Chu Guangyue, it would just be an ordinary town in the east of the city.
Chu Guangyue was born in Donglin, and when he was twenty-five years old, he went to K City from this small town. He was very courageous and careful in his work. He was spotted by a hall owner of the Water Snake Gang and started a business to collect accounts. At that time, the Water Snake Gang dominated the K City family and controlled the money laundering, drug and erotic transactions underground in the city. Chu Guangyue rose to the top with ruthless means, and it took eight years to set foot on the position of the second head of the Water Snake Gang. He sold his life for Boss Hei for two years obediently, and then another thunderstorm turned the entire Water Snake Gang upside down in one fell swoop. After that day, the name of the Water Snake Gang disappeared, and the logo was replaced by a black eagle.
There are many versions about the reason why Chu Guangyue was against the Lord, and the most widely circulated one is that he wanted to avenge a man.
That man walked out of Donglin with him back then, blocked a knife for him, was shot, followed him for eight years, and later died in an accident from a stray bullet. It was the black boss who did the trick, and the reason was that a mistress blew the wind on the pillow, saying that the man had molested her. I heard that Chu Guangyue chopped him and the mistress into pieces with his own hands, and the scene was so bloody that even those gangsters had weak legs.
Later, the Black Hawk Club worked as a gangster for a few more years, and gradually started to get the industry on the table, and gradually laundered all the private money. Now more than 20 years have passed, and the Black Eagle Club of that year has already turned into a powerful and decent-looking Golden Eagle Group. The Chu family has also become a popular guest in the business and political circles.
The reason why this place in the east is still preserved is because Chu Guangyue does not allow others to touch it.
This is another main reason why Xu Ting wants to cooperate with Song Huanian. Song Huanian has friendship with Chu Guangyue. He was a senior officer of the Black Hawk Society.
Making the best use of everything is Xu Ting's life principle. This "thing" also includes his own son. He brought Xu Ye to meet Song Huanian intentionally or unintentionally, because he had the idea of getting into this marriage. Forming a family and cooperating with each other was a drama he played when he was young, and that's how Zhou Jia got married. He feels that as long as the matter is done, the follow-up is not important, and the relationship is the icing on the cake, and it doesn't matter if it is gone.
Xu Ye hated him for this, but he couldn't do anything about it.
This charity auction dinner was held in the banquet hall on the 36th floor of Jinmao Tower, which was full of momentum. Men and women in gorgeous formal suits staggered, smiling and chatting, and Xu Ye was tired of looking at suits and leather shoes with fragrant shoulders and slender waists.
He watched Xu Ting and Zhou Jia holding hands and laughing in front of people, and it was disgusting, and even the champagne tasted like buckwheat tea. I simply chose a secluded place by the window to stand, overlooking the bright lights of the city and the surging traffic.
"Why are you hiding here?" Zhou Jia walked behind him with a cup in his hand, and whispered, "Go to your dad's place soon." Seeing that he didn't move, she sighed and persuaded, "Even if not. If you like you, you have to go over and have a face-to-face. The girl looks average and has a good temperament. You should also calm down and don't let people down. "
Xu Ye glanced at her: "I can get the land and have a good temper at the same time. I really earned it. I wonder if my dad had such a superior buy-one-get-a-big deal when he married you back then?"
"You're really..." Zhou Jia held back his anger and said, "I'm too lazy to care, just do whatever you want."
"It's like you've been taking care of me." Xu Ye sneered around her and walked towards the excitement.
Xu Ting was talking to Song Huanian, and a young girl in a rose-red dress stood beside them smiling. Song Huanian saw him first, and smiled, "Just as I said that, I came."
"Hello Uncle Song, long time no see." Xu Ye nodded slightly, stood beside Xu Ting with a smile, and asked, "This must be your daughter, right? Hello, I'm Xu Ye." He took the initiative to extend his hand.
"Hello, Song Yueran." The girl shook his hand and smiled. Although she is not out of shape, she is sweet when she smiles.
Song Huanian patted Xu Ye on the shoulder and said, "This child has just returned from Canada, and he has no friends around. If you have time, Xiao Ye, spend more time with her."
Xu Ye smiled: "Aren't Uncle Song afraid that I will kidnap the daughter?"
"What are you talking about, kid?" Xu Ting feigned anger.
Song Huanian laughed loudly: "If you can run away, it's your ability. Go, you young people, talk, don't stay with us old antiques, you're bored."
"Miss Song, let's sit there?" Xu Ye immediately sent an invitation. Today, he was wearing a silver-gray slim-fit suit with a pair of white leather shoes, looking very gentle.
Song Yueran happily went with him.
"Call me Yueran or Amy, Miss Song sounds weird." She sat down by the window with him. Xu Ye took the juice and handed it to her, she blinked: "That's for children." After speaking, he changed a glass of cocktail and drank it in one go. Seeing Xu Ye looking at her, she stuck out her tongue: "don't tell my dad, he won't let me drink it."
Xu Ye smiled: "When you go back drunk, I will be accused by Xingshi."
"I'm good at drinking, and I don't blush, I can't tell." She took two glasses of different types of cocktails from the waiter's tray and tasted them, her expression wrinkled, "What a strange taste."
"That one was made with vodka, it's stronger."
"It's still as good as before." She concluded, looked at him and said, "Is it boring to be with me?"
"No. You're funny."
This sentence is true. Xu Ye knew how to put on a fake smile and condescend on such occasions, but this girl was not like those pretentious ladies, and they got along very naturally.
"I'm not used to this kind of banquet. The clothes are strangled tightly, and I have to pretend to be a lady. It's boring." She raised her calves slightly and said, "The heels are worn." She wore a pair of silver The stiletto heels were worn red at the ankle. Very helpless tone.
"Take off your shoes and relax." Xu Ye said.
She was stunned for a moment: "...people come and go, bare feet seem a little ugly."
Xu Ye took off the suit, put it on her knee, and covered her legs with her shoes: "This way, you can't see it."
Song Yueran was stunned for a while, and then said a little embarrassedly, "Your suit will drag on the ground."
"It's just clothes, it doesn't matter." He smiled. "Next time, remember to wear a long skirt, at least you can cover it when you are sitting."
"Yeah. Got it." She looked gentle.
The important program of the so-called charity dinner is to collect donations. Several famous painters put their paintings up for auction, and the auction money raised was used to donate to build primary schools in difficult areas.
Xu Ye and Song Yueran both got their license plates. But the two of them are just playing soy sauce. First, they don't have the ability to appreciate those paintings. Second, their controllable financial resources are only so little.
At seven o'clock, the event officially started. The lights are concentrated on the stage in front of the venue. The host talked a lot, and invited a few out-of-school children to create an atmosphere, which fully aroused the sympathy of the rich. The auction started, and the placards were also very active, and many paintings were sold at high prices.
The final pair is "Water Lilies" by a late painter, donated by his children. The finale must be a good thing. Xu Ye checked it with his mobile phone. This painting has become a masterpiece, and it is very valuable. The strange thing is that the bidding price of this painting is very low. When it reached 1.5 million, no one raised the card, which is much lower than the previous ones.
Song Yueran also found it strange and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter? Even if this painting is not good, it won't make it impossible to shoot?"
Xu Ye frowned. Seeing that the hammer was about to fall, he raised his hand and shook his own number plate.
No. 87.
The auctioneer seemed to be stunned for a moment, and immediately said loudly: "No. 87 is 1.8 million. Is there a higher bid? If not, this beautiful "Water Lily" will belong to Mr. No. 87."
The center of the field stretched out a hand.
"Mr. No. 6 bid 2.1 million."
Xu Ye's original intention was to raise the price, and it was also counted as donating more money to those children. Seeing that there were bidders, knowing that someone still liked the painting, he raised his hand again.
"Mr. No. 87 raised his placard again, 2.4 million... Ah, Mr. No. 6 bid 2.7 million, 2.7 million! Is there a higher price?" The auctioneer looked towards Xu Ye.
He was stunned. It seemed that he and the No. 6 were the only ones left to bid, and the No. 6 bid immediately after him twice, and seemed determined to win. He curled his lips and smiled, since that person wanted it so much, he would give it no matter how expensive it was.
"Mr. No. 87 offered 3 million! Mr. 6 offered 3.3 million!" The price soared. When No. 6 offered 6.9 million, Song Yueran grabbed Xu Ye's hand to raise the card.
He was stunned for a moment, only to hear her whisper in his ear with some anxiety: "Dad said you must never raise your placard again..." Then he pointed to the flashing mobile phone in his pocket, "Quickly answer the call."
It was Xu Ting who called, and the first sentence was hysterical: "Little bastard, are you crazy!"
At this moment, the auctioneer struck three hammers, wiped his sweat, and announced that the sale on the 6th was 6.9 million.
As soon as Xu Ye came out of the venue, he was dragged into a corner by Xu Ting with a dark face, and Song Wanyuan was calling with a solemn expression.
"What's this for?" He frowned.
"Who asked you to hold the sign? You know who the number 6 is, and you dare to hold it? You have held it up so many times not counting one time!" Xu Ting tried his best to restrain his anger, "You are so courageous, You dare to do things that no one else dares to do, I Xu Ting really gave birth to a good son!"
"So who is No. 6?" Xu Ye asked with a frown.
