rich and powerful son-in-law

Everyone looked at Cheng Ziqian in a daze. They never imagined that the dignified president of the Anzhou Security Association, who holds great power, wants to bow to a young man in his twenties, and call him uncle so naturally.

If this is a true blood relative, there is nothing to say.

But Mr. Cheng also said that he and Li Yan just forget their friendship, are you sure you want such a big gift?
Is the Cheng family's understanding of Chinese etiquette and customs a bit off?

Li Yan took it for granted, nodded slightly and said, "Why are you here?"

Cheng Ziqian said with a smile: "such a big event as the old lady's [-]th birthday has spread all over Ping'an Province. How could I not know about it. As a junior, I will naturally come!"

Li Yan nodded and said: "You have a heart. Sit down."

"Thank you, Uncle!" Cheng Ziqian sat obediently beside him, half-turning his body to Li Yan, his attitude and posture were extremely respectful.

This scene fell in the eyes of everyone in the audience, except for Cheng Lao and Cheng Xiaoxiao who thought it was normal, everyone else was going crazy!
When Cheng Ziqian sits like this, other people at the table can't sit still.

With Cheng Ziqian's status, he should be sitting at the main table. How could they have the qualifications to sit with him? Standing or sitting, it was extremely uncomfortable.

At the main table, everyone in the Lin family couldn't figure it out, and the VIPs couldn't figure it out even more.

Ma Taibao and Cheng Lao had some friendship, and couldn't help but said: "Old Cheng, why did you recognize your brother indiscriminately? Isn't this adding trouble to your children!"

Cheng Lao said with a smile: "Lao Ma, what do you know? My brother is very powerful!"

"Oh, where is it so powerful?" Ma Taibao was puzzled.

Mr. Cheng pointed to his eyes and said, "He has a pair of discerning eyes for appreciating treasures, and his accomplishments in antique calligraphy and painting make me feel ashamed!"

Everyone was surprised.

Mr. Cheng is recognized as the number one expert in appreciating treasures in Ping An Province. As long as he appraises the treasures, no one dares to question them.

Li Yan actually has such abilities that even Cheng Lao can admire?

Especially Lin Qihui, lost his voice and said: "Mr. Cheng, Li Yan is just mentally ill. How could he know how to appraise antiques? You must have been deceived by him, right?"

Cheng Lao's face fell down, and he said coldly: "Who are you? Do you know antique calligraphy and painting? Do I, Cheng Depei, still need you to teach me?"

One sentence made Lin Qihui blush!

But Lin Qihui still didn't believe that Li Yan had such a great ability, not only him, but also the rest of the Lin family.

In their eyes, Li Yan is a psychopath who was abandoned by a wealthy family, and a plucked Phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken!

And after calming down a little, everyone in the Lin family felt that it was actually nothing special.

Old Cheng and his son seem to have a lot of background, but like Rao Xing'an Ji Deqing, they have nothing to do with fame, and they don't really help the Lin family.

Cheng Lao, a master of antique calligraphy and painting appraisal, a leader in the industry, is indeed well-known and admired by thousands of people, but the Lin family does not engage in collections at all, and there seems to be no need to curry favor with Cheng Lao apart from respect.

Cheng Ziqian is in power, but after all, he is in Anzhou and has no control over Pingzhou.

Besides, what if Li Yan knows how to identify?

How much money can be made by appraising treasures, even if the treasures are identified, they belong to others!

Thinking of this, the Lin family was relieved.

Lin Qihui even said in a low voice: "See, the connections of Sanmei's family are too vain."

Everyone also felt the same way.

Unexpectedly, just when they were relieved, a series of welcoming voices sounded at the door again.

"Song Wei, Chairman of Zhuoda Culture, together with his artist Zhang Ruiwen Dashen, wish the old lady a happy birthday! We respectfully present you with a white jade handle!"

"Xue Jinding, owner of Anzhou Liuhe Martial Arts Museum, pays homage to the old lady! A pearl bracelet!"

"Leng Batian, president of Anzhou Xinglong Chamber of Commerce, pays homage to the old lady! A statue of Emerald Guanyin!"

……

"Shangguan Chucai, the chairman of Hengjiang Bank, together with Chen Ping, the general manager, and Shangguan Yu, the granddaughter, pay homage to the old lady! A pair of colorful glazed jade vases!"

A string of names, all of them were like thunder, and when the last name was heard, the audience was shocked.

Shangguan Chucai!

The four distinguished guests at the main table were all shocked. They stood up instantly and looked at the door, trying to make sure if it was true.

On the contrary, the Lin family was a little strange.

Who is Shangguan Chu?
Wait, Chairman of Hengjiang Bank!

Could it be the famous and powerful Hengjiang Bank in South China?

Our Lin family, when did we befriend such a financial crocodile!
To others, Shangguan Chucai might be a wealthy and powerful banker, but to Ma Taibao, it was completely different. His face was sweaty and panicked, and he hurriedly left the main table and went forward to greet him.

Walking a few steps quickly, meeting Shangguan Chucai on the way, Ma Taibao bowed to the bottom, and said respectfully: "The Eagle King is here, disciple Ma Taibao pays homage to him!"

"Oh, pony." Shangguan Chucai glanced at Ma Taibao, and said calmly, "Is your master okay?"

"Master is getting old, and he seldom comes out of the mountain recently." Ma Taibao said.

Shangguan Chucai nodded: "Well, if you see him, give me a sentence."

"Yes!" Ma Taibao said hastily.

Everyone was stunned.

How could Ma Taibao, a majestic Tai Chi master and a man of great promise in the martial arts world, be so respectful in front of Shangguan Chucai, and still hold the ceremony of disciple?
What exactly is going on?

They were bewildered to see that Shangguan Chucai and his party had come to the main table to pay their respects to the old lady on her birthday.

The old lady hurriedly got up to greet her, and after some pleasantries, she said nervously: "Chairman Shangguan, old lady, I have a small birthday banquet, why bother you to come here in person, I am ashamed!"

Shangguan Chucai smiled and said: "I have received Mr. Li's great favor, and I am willing to be a dog and a horse. How dare I not come when his grandmother celebrates her birthday!"

"Huh?" Everyone was taken aback.

Mr. Lee?
Which Mr. Li is it again?
Don't tell us, it's that Mr. Li again!
But seeing Shangguan Chucai glanced into the distance, he said with a smile, "Mr. Li is over there, let's sit there too."

As they spoke, the group of people passed through the large tables grandly, walked straight to Li Yan, bowed in unison and said, "Hello, Mr. Li!"

Li Yan sighed: "Why are you all here?"

Shangguan Chucai said in a low voice: "I heard from Yu'er that some people spread the news in Anzhou circles without showing respect to the master, and those who are interested will naturally come to support the master."

"Do I need it?" Li Yan was helpless.

Shangguan Chucai said: "You don't need it, but your family does!"

Li Yan smiled wryly, Shangguan Chucai has also become a master, what he said is absolutely correct.

Li Yan had never seen anything in his ninth life after his rebirth, and he was in such a good mood that he didn't care about any cynicism.

But Ling Ziyan's family is different. They have suffered a lot since they returned to the Lin family, so it's time to feel proud.

"Alright..." Li Yan nodded, "By the way, this is my fiancée Ling Ziyan. Some of you have met and some of you haven't. Let's get to know each other."

Everyone hurried forward to meet Ling Ziyan.

Ling Ziyan was dumbfounded when these big names with great reputations came to visit together!
Especially Song Wei, that is her big client. It stands to reason that she, Party B, should visit Party A. How can Party A come to visit Party B?
