Chapter 89

Chapter 89. The word longevity is less

As soon as the words fell, Wu Zui who was at the side quickly got up and bowed down.

Everyone was taken aback, when Qi Qi looked over, he recognized him as the young man who had just come with Ren Ping, who seemed to be the young manager of You Shengxing.

They don't know the origin of You Shengxing, but this person and Ren Ping are in the same group, and he can be appreciated by Rong Qiancheng, which is not to be underestimated. Immediately, someone took out a small gadget and gave it out as a meeting gift .

The one who was most surprised here was Ren Ping, why did this kid become friends with Rong Qiancheng after not seeing him for a while?

When I turned my head to look, I saw Wu Zui agreeing with the big guys, while also looking over, he blinked secretly while no one was paying attention, as if to say:

Look, I've also caught up with the nobleman, one step faster than you!
Ren Ping shook his head and laughed, thinking that this kid has no self-knowledge at all. Although his own aptitude is not bad, but when it comes to being accepted by Rong Qiancheng as an apprentice, he is not so good. He made it clear that he has another purpose:
If you owe something to your friends before coming here, you should make up for it;
Secondly, isn't it for making friends with yourself?
It's not that Ren Ping is bragging. If he said that he was accepted as an apprentice, he was not qualified for being a thousand times. On the other hand, he had to be pointed at for helping to participate in that competition!

"Mr. Rong, are you accepting apprentices at this time, is it because of this year's 'Tianyantong-Shanhe Baojian' competition?"

Sure enough, Ren Ping was not the only one who could see this, and soon someone laughed.

This competition is not a secret in the industry, and many people know it, so there is nothing taboo about it.

Rong Qiancheng smiled, glanced at Wu Zui, and couldn't help but glance at Ren Ping:

"It is, and it is not. You also know that the juniors of the Spring and Autumn League have not yet grown up. There must be someone from my nine families who can take on the scene, right?"

"Besides, this contest is rerun after 20 years, and the momentum is extremely huge. Could it be that all of you can't bear to be ignorant?"

After speaking, I looked around and saw that everyone was looking at each other and smiling, and it was obvious that they had already started preparing.

This competition is unusual and has important interests involved, but no one in the collection industry is eager to try it.

Of course, it's still too early to say these things, everyone knew it well, and didn't say much, and turned around to congratulate Mrs. Tian on his longevity.

Soon, the banquet was half over, the food and drink were half full, and everyone was a little tired, so they wanted to say goodbye and leave.

At this moment, a person hurried in from the door, walked up to Tian Minru's side, leaned over and whispered something.

When everyone looked at it, it was Butler Xu, who was supposed to be entertaining other guests in the outer hall at this time, but somehow he had something to report, when he looked carefully, he was still holding something in his hand, a long scroll, like a painting or calligraphy.

Tian Minru listened to Steward Xu's whisper, and the more he listened, the more he frowned. It was obviously not a good thing, but his face still didn't show too much, and he got up and left his seat quietly after listening.

"What's the matter Min Ru, what happened?"

Seeing this, Tian Bingtai called her to stop.

Tian Minru pondered for a moment, then smiled:

"There are guests outside who are drunk. It's not going to end well, but it's okay. Grandpa, just stay with Grandpa and the others."

This is her superficial excuse and she doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, but everyone here is the best of the best, so why can't they hear it?

Tian Bingtai frowned and pointed to everyone:
"There are no outsiders here, just speak straight."

"grandfather……"

"Say!"

Tian Bingtai drank in a deep voice.

At the same time, I felt even more surprised that this granddaughter usually did things quickly and neatly. Because of this, I could trust her to take care of the family group. Why was she so hesitant now?

Is it really something incomprehensible?
Tian Minru had no choice but to nod slightly to Butler Xu.

The latter was obviously also a little panicked, paused, and after a while of words in his stomach, he bowed slightly:

"Go back to the old man, someone sent a birthday present just now."

"What birthday gift?"

"A picture, the word Shou."

"Oh?"

Tian Bingtai raised his eyebrows, obviously quite surprised:

"Where is it? Who sent it?"

"It was given by Mr. Liu from Shanglong Decoration, but he didn't come, he only sent a secretary, and he wasn't the one who signed the letter."

After Butler Xu finished speaking, he took two steps forward and put the scroll in his hand respectfully on the table.

When everyone heard that "Shanglong decorated Mr. Liu", they were already a little surprised, especially Ren Ping, thinking that this person ordered Wang's uncle and nephew to deal with him, so he dared to come?

When he heard that it wasn't him who signed the letter, he was even more bewildered. Could it be that this person didn't give the gift himself, but passed it on for others?

Among the crowd, Tong Jian was the most impatient and had the deepest friendship with Tian Bingtai, so he was not polite at the moment, picked up the scroll and unfolded it on the table.

Not long after, there was a low cry:
"Jingyuan Group!"

Before the words were finished, the crowd had already gathered around, and saw that there was indeed an inscription at the bottom of the long scroll, but it was not a name, but a bright red seal with four small characters in seal script: Jingyuan Holdings.

It's fine if it's just like that, it's just a birthday gift, but when everyone took a closer look, they saw the word "Shou" in the middle of the long scroll, and the lower left corner was empty, it was actually a bit missing.

It's a big taboo to have fewer longevity characters!
It is almost equivalent to cursing a long-lived person to be short of blessings and widows!
What does the gift giver want to do?
"What is the origin of this Jingyuan Group? Why have I never heard of it?"

At this time, Ren Ping frowned slightly. It was obviously the first time he heard these four words. When he turned around to look, even Wu Zui, who had always been a gossip, was confused.

Rong Qiancheng shook his head when he heard the words:

"You are still young, no wonder you don't know that Jingyuan Group is one of the most influential giant conglomerates in China. It is not well-known because of its relatively low-key behavior, but in terms of strength, hehe..."

"how?"

"Even Tahoe is quite inferior."

Ren Ping and the two looked at each other when they heard the words, thinking that the Taihe Group was already a giant, and the Jingyuan Group was even worse, so it was even more serious.

"Looking at Mr. Tong and the others, the Jingyuan Group doesn't seem to get along well with Taihe?"

"Not only do they not get along well, they are simply mortal enemies!"

Rong Qiancheng said solemnly:

"Tahoe Group has great influence in Nanling City and even Jiangning Province, as you all know, but this Jingyuan Group is a giant in the three neighboring provinces of Jiangning. Except for Jiangning, it almost covers the four southeastern provinces by itself. "

"A few years ago, Tahoe Group expanded externally and wanted to expand its business to several nearby provinces. It did not want to be hindered by Jingyuan, so it lost all its money."

"Turning around, Jingyuan also wanted to set foot in Jiangning Province, but they underestimated Taihe's strength. With a big enemy ahead, how could Taihe be willing to let it go, and also defeated the other side and returned. It's over,"

"In the past few years, the two sides have been in a relationship that looks like they don't share the sky. On the surface, they seem to have no contact with each other, but in fact they have never stopped fighting each other in private. The situation is dire, and the hatred is getting deeper and deeper,"

"This matter is actually not a secret in the business circle. Anyone who does business in the four southeastern provinces must rely on Taihe when entering Jiangning. Conversely, the other three provinces must rely on Jingyuan,"

"However, relatively speaking, Tahoe's side is more relaxed and will not engage in any monopoly hegemony. Unexpectedly, shopping malls are like battlefields. It is the benevolence of this thought that allows Jingyuan to take advantage of the loopholes, and now he has finally extended his hand into Jiangning. !”

After all, the two of them were thrilled to hear it. After all, they were young and young. Without guidance, they would never have imagined such a fierce competition in the business world.

Wu Zui reached out and wiped the sweat on his forehead, feeling a little strange:
"What Jingyuan has already entered Jiangning? How do you know it? Just based on this picture?"

"On the surface it is a picture, but in fact it is much more than that,"

Ren Ping interjected:
"First, this picture was sent by Shanglong Decoration. As we all know, Shanglong is a new upstart in Nanling's home decoration industry. As soon as it came out, it showed that it had been taken over by Jingyuan. passable,"

"Second, didn't you see that the word "longevity" is missing a little bit below it? This is a big taboo. If you are giving a gift sincerely, how could you make such a mistake?"

"So this was deliberately done by the Jingyuan Group. The purpose is to tell everyone that they have marched into Nanling and declared war on Taihe!"

Ren Ping once again won Rong Qiancheng's praise for analyzing the situation so clearly in a short period of time.

Wu Zui himself was not stupid, that was obvious, but he was half a beat too slow:

"I still don't understand. Sending a picture is considered a declaration of war? The meaning of this picture is not good. If the Taihetian family doesn't publicize it, other people don't know, so they won't swing around. Far away?"

"Hey, aren't you letting Taihe swallow your anger?"

"It's better to swallow your anger than to lose in the end."

Wu Zui looked like he didn't care about his three sevens and 21s, anyway, his face was worthless.

Rong Qiancheng smiled:

"Of course it's more than that. Even if the Tian family and we don't make it public, the other party can force them to reveal the words. At that time, everyone will still know it. Instead of doing this, it's better to fight it head-on."

"How to force?"

The two said together after hearing the words.

Rong Qiancheng was taken aback, and frowned:
"What? You don't know the custom of inviting guests to celebrate Nanling's birthday?"
