close mad son-in-law

"Ma Bowen, do you think I'm old and my eyes are dim?" Old lady Han poked hard on the floor with the cane in her hand.

She is not stupid, she knows very well that for antique treasures like the Phoenix Crown, the security measures are absolutely very strict. It is not impossible to be transferred, but the probability is close to zero.

The old lady became furious at the thought of being tricked.

She just reprimanded Xu Qiang brazenly, but in the blink of an eye Xu Qiang proved that there was something wrong with the baby she was looking at.

Although Xu Qiang only picked out one piece, the old lady thought that there must be more than one piece, and even the whole phoenix crown was fake, forged by a master.

She is not an antique appraiser, she can only tell if it looks good or not, as for whether it is an antique or not, she is not sure at all.

Because of this, she has given up on the idea of ​​exchanging.

"I……"

"You don't need to say anything, let's go!" The old lady gave the order to evict the guests.

Ma Bowen and his son had no choice but to leave with Fengguan.

"It's all damn Xu Qiang, otherwise we can exchange Qianlong's sword!" In the car, Ma Lijin cursed Xu Qiang again.

If it wasn't for Xu Qiang to see that it was fake, with old lady Han's eyesight, she wouldn't be able to see that there was something wrong with Fengguan, so Xu Qiang could only be blamed.

"Execute the second plan!" Ma Bowen sighed.

Exchanging the faulty phoenix crown for Qianlong's sword was only the first plan, and it was also the plan with the least cost. It is a pity that it has failed now.

But Qianlong's sword must be brought back, so only the second set of plans can be implemented, and if the second set fails, the third set will be used until the Qianlong sword is brought back.

When Ma Bowen and his son left, Xu Qiang and Xu Qiang did not leave. In fact, they were already planning to leave, but they were stopped by Mrs. Han.

"Xu Qiang, have you revoked the authorization for Yufan's Wang's Irrigation Technique?" The old lady looked at Xu Qiang with a questioning tone.

"Grandma, it's not me who canceled the authorization, but the head office!"

"Why cancel it?"

"Because the head office has a very big plan, the building of the Lvyuan Farm by the head office in Bingcheng is just a springboard. Starting from the Lvyuan Farm in Bingcheng, the business scope will gradually expand to the whole of China. The scale of the source is relatively small, and on the other hand, I guarantee that the head office agrees too much."

"Then why don't you agree now?"

"Because Shengyuan has been merged into Han's, but still has strong funds and sufficient ability to develop Shengyuan, it will inevitably affect the development of Luyuan and the plan of the head office, so someone reports to the head office, and then the head office Send the lawyer's letter over me, I didn't know it beforehand, and even if I knew it, I wouldn't be able to stop it!" Xu Qiang simply pushed all the responsibilities out.

He pushed all the responsibilities to the head office, saying that his authority was limited.

The old lady frowned. Of course she understood what Xu Qiang said. It was like a tiger occupying a territory. If there was a nest of rabbits living on the territory, the tiger would never drive them away, because there was no threat to the tiger, even the living rations.

But if there is another tiger, no matter how big or small the situation is different, there will definitely be a fight until one side is driven out, and the competition is for territory and resources.

The original Luyuan was like a little tiger.

The Shengyuan established by Han Yufan was regarded as a little rabbit.

A tiger is not afraid of a little rabbit, and Luyuan is not afraid of Shengyuan's danger.

But Shengyuan was merged into the Han family. From a little rabbit to a little tiger, Luyuan didn't allow it, and immediately came to the bottom of the pot.

"Is there no way at all?" Mrs. Han was still a little unwilling.

"At least I can't help it, and the headquarters sent a lawyer's letter over me, obviously dissatisfied with me, no matter what I say, it's useless!"

"Grandma, don't force Xu Qiang." Han Xuefei said.

"Okay, I don't care about your affairs, you two go!" Old lady Han waved her hands a little irritably, holding her breath in her heart.

There are two things to do today, one is to exchange the phoenix crown for Qianlong's sword, and the other is for Xu Qiang to continue to authorize Wang's irrigation technique to Han Yufan.

However, the phoenix crown was fake, and the first thing failed.

The lawyer's letter was issued by Luyuan's head office, and it was issued over Xu Qiang. Xu Qiang had no right to authorize Wang's irrigation technique, and the second matter was not completed.

None of the two things were done, and Mrs. Han was very uncomfortable.

Xu Qiang and Han Xuefei turned around and left. They didn't want to stay any longer, otherwise they would suffer again if the old lady thought of something.

When returning to their villa, Xu Qiang received a call from Fu Guotao.

Fu Guotao's treat!
Han Xuefei asked Xu Qiang to go to the banquet, and she went back to the villa alone.

"Brother, you are here, come, come, the food and drink are ready, waiter, serve the food..." When Xu Qiang came to the hotel, Fu Guotao picked it up in person.

Then came to the best private room, Tianzi No. [-] private room.

The spacious private room is magnificently decorated, and there are eight waitresses in court costumes who serve their private room exclusively.

"Brother Fu, you are too polite!"

"It should be, you are my best brother, who is not going to treat you well?" While the two were talking, one dish after another was served.

There are all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas, and a large table is full.

"Come on, brother, rinse your mouth with bird's nest first, I asked someone to get it, it's not an ordinary product in the market..." Fu Guotao brought the bird's nest to Xu Qiang himself.

has a problem!
There must be something wrong!
Seeing Fu Guotao's excessive politeness and hospitality, Xu Qiang suddenly had a question in his heart. Fu Guotao's behavior today is too abnormal, there must be something wrong.

Fu Guotao didn't rush to speak, and Xu Qiang didn't ask.

He believed that there was no need for him to ask, Fu Guotao would definitely speak up.

"Come on, try the bear's paw. Although it's not a real bear's paw, but made with some ingredients, the taste is absolutely amazing..." Fu Guotao added another dish to Xu Qiang.

Xu Qiang nodded, the taste of the bear's paw was really delicious.

According to Xu Qiang's taste, the main material of the bear's paw should be pig skin, plus some other seasonings, and some precious ingredients to make the fake bear's paw.

Soon, the two of them were almost eating and drinking.

"You go out first, we brothers have something to talk about!" Fu Guotao said to the eight waiters who had been serving them all the time when the meal was almost finished.

Soon, all eight waiters with model figures were out.

"Brother, I invited you to dinner today, and I'm actually apologizing to you..." Seeing that the waiters had gone out and there were only two people left in the room, the smile on Fu Guotao's face disappeared.

"What happened?" Xu Qiang was at a loss.

He didn't remember what Fu Guotao had done to apologize to him.

"When I accepted your Tang Bohu's ancient paintings, I said I would recommend you to join the Antiques Association, do you remember?" Fu Guotao said a little embarrassedly.

Xu Qiang nodded, of course he remembered.

At first, he thought that to join the Antique Association, one must have a certain ability to identify antiques. He didn't know how to identify antiques, so he didn't expect to join the Association of Five Senses.

At that time, Xu Qiang hadn't learned ghost eyes, and couldn't see the aura.

However, Fu Guotao told him that he was thinking too much.

To join the Antiques Association, you don't necessarily need to have the ability to identify.

As long as someone recommends you, you can join the Antique Association.

Fu Guotao made a swearing promise that Xu Qiang must be pulled in.

"Did something happen?" Xu Qiang asked casually.

Fu Guotao apologized to him. Obviously, there was no way to let him join the Antiques Association. Xu Qiang was a little surprised by this. The Antiques Association is not an official organization, nor is it an organization with a high threshold. How can Fu Guotao be a rich member? Can't recommend anyone?

"Of course there was an accident. When I recommended you, I was directly rejected!"

"What is their reason?"

"There are many reasons, some say that your identification ability is not good, some say that you are not well-known enough, and some say..." Fu Guotao got a little too drunk and started to complain.

So many reasons?
Xu Qiang was also shocked. One reason was enough for rejecting him to join the Antiques Association, but now he has come up with so many reasons, does it seem that he is a bit special?
Either it was aimed at him, or it was still aimed at him.

Pretty sure he was being targeted.

Because Fu Guotao told him that the entry threshold for ordinary members of the Antique Association is very low, as long as someone recommends it, you can directly join the association.

But now he was rejected for so many reasons, there must be something tricky.

"Is there something you didn't say?"

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from you, brother. I was very surprised that I was rejected for recommending you to join. I asked my acquaintances to inquire, and guess what happened?"

"what happened?"

"You have been added to the blacklist of the Antique Association!"

"Blacklist?" Of course Xu Qiang knew what the blacklist meant.

Only those who hate and don't want to contact them will be blacklisted. Putting Xu Qiang on the blacklist by the Antiques Association means that Xu Qiang and the Antiques Association have no chance.

It's just that Xu Qiang didn't understand. He didn't do anything to the Antique Association. Why should the Antique Association blacklist him?

"Could it be the Ma family's fault?" Xu Qiang suddenly thought of the Ma family.

The Ma family's ancestors have been in the antique circle for generations, and their influence in the antique circle is deep-rooted. Xu Qiang offended the Ma family very hard, and the Ma family had enough motivation to do so.

"How is the blacklist determined?"

"One is nominated by the vice president and reported to the president for approval, and the other is to cause extremely bad influence in society, or other types of major events that cause strong dissatisfaction among other members of the association, and joint nominations can also be made... "

"In other words, no matter which method is used, the chairman's signature and review will be required in the end, right?"

"Yes, without the approval of the president, the blacklist will not take effect!"

"Did I offend the president?" Xu Qiang drew a question mark in his heart.

He doesn't even know who the president of the Antique Association is, so how could he offend him?

The biggest possibility is that the president gave the Ma family face. It was nominated by the Ma family, and the president signed directly, and he was blacklisted.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. Xu Qiang suddenly felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he didn't join the Antiques Association, otherwise, wouldn't he be with them?

"I remembered that the Antique Association is going to hold an event recently, and cooperate with some merchants in the ice city to hold an antique festival, right?" Xu Qiang can remember, because the Han family is also one of the cooperative merchants.

Of course, the organizer of the event is the Antiques Association, and the major merchants that cooperate generally only need to get money. Han's is like this, with a sponsorship fee of 30.

"Brother, I know you must feel wronged, but don't be serious, it's not worth fighting with them..." As soon as Xu Qiang asked about the Antique Festival, a revenge image flashed in Fu Guotao's mind.
