"Uncle, let me introduce you. This is Cheng Jianjun from our college. We used to be classmates at the same university."

The appearance of Cheng Jianjun surprised Su Meng a little, and she still felt a little regretful that she could not continue her university studies.

"Hello there!"

After a brief greeting with Cheng Jianjun, Uncle Liu started chatting with other familiar business friends.

"before?"

Cheng Jianjun looked at Su Meng and sensed something strange from her words.

"Yes, I have dropped out of school for almost a month and now I am starting a business."

Su Meng didn't think this matter needed to be concealed.

"What? But even if you go into business, you can still finish college first. Having a diploma can give you a way out!"

Army man Cheng Jian was stunned.

He worked hard to get into university, not only because he wanted to surpass Han Chunming in academic performance, but also half because he wanted to get closer to Su Meng.

He thought he could take this opportunity to get closer to her, but after finally getting admitted to the same university, she chose to drop out, which made Cheng Jianjun hard to accept for a while.

Cheng Jianjun didn't know yet that the reason why Su Meng dropped out of school was actually related to Han Chunming.

"Humph, do you understand what kind of difficulties I have been through in the past month? Going to college is certainly a good choice, but in this era, especially for me, it is not the best way out! Do you know what happened to Han Chunming recently?"

"Han Chunming? Isn't he just moving bricks at the construction site?" All Cheng Jianjun knew about Han Chunming was what he heard from his parents. He only knew that he had made a name for himself in the antique collection circle.

"Moving bricks? What a joke! His master is a guest of honor at Changze Auction House and owns hundreds of precious antiques. His wealth now far exceeds that of my uncle. We are still relying on our family for the trivialities of life. The gap is so huge that it is unacceptable! For this reason, I chose to drop out of school!" Su Meng's words were like sharp needles piercing Cheng Jianjun's heart!

Unlike Su Meng's arrogance, Cheng Jianjun was more envious of Han Chunming, and deep in his heart he longed to surpass him in every aspect! He was determined to surpass Han Chunming in his life.

Cheng Jianjun couldn't accept the news when he heard it from Su Meng all of a sudden: "Are you saying that Han Chunming already has millions or even tens of millions of assets?"

"Do I need to lie to you? He admitted it himself!" Su Meng sneered, seeming to be mocking Han Chunming's sudden rise to fame, and also seeming to be mocking his own situation.

Cheng Jianjun looked pale and a little dazed.

"Even if you want to go into business, you may not be able to catch up with him!"

He looked at Su Meng, still with a hint of stubbornness in his heart, refusing to admit defeat.

“I am different from you. I am now studying with my uncle, and the practical knowledge I get is far better than the theory I learned on campus.

That's it, no more chatting..."

Su Meng found the topic boring and ended the conversation.

"Hey...your uncle?"

When Su Meng mentioned her uncle, Cheng Jianjun frowned and began to wonder whether he should drop out of school to venture into business.

"It's out, it's out, that's not..."

Someone in the crowd shouted that the person responsible for cutting the ribbon was about to appear.

"Han Chunming?!"

When Su Meng saw a group of people walking out of the museum, he was dumbfounded, and Cheng Jianjun was also shocked.

The one who appeared with Uncle Guan and Marquis Polan was none other than Han Chunming!

Ye Ming once promised to appoint Uncle Guan as the director of Changze Museum, and naturally he did what he said.

Chapter 152: Cheng Jianjun is determined not to give in, and Liu Haizhong cheats and extorts money!

In front of the museum, Uncle Guan and Hou Polan participated in such a grand ribbon-cutting ceremony for the first time.

"Oh, there are so many people!" Hou Paolan looked at the dense crowd in the square and looked a little nervous.

"Are you scared? I told you not to join in the fun, but you insisted on coming!" Uncle Guan joked.

"What a joke! As the deputy director, how can I be absent from such an occasion? Chunming, don't you think so?" Polan Hou immediately retorted. His position as deputy director was recognized by Ye Ming.

When he heard that Uncle Guan had become the director, Hou Polan was not willing to be outdone and went to Ye Ming to fight for the position of deputy director.

During this period, Hou Paolan assisted Uncle Guan in organizing the collections, allowing the museum to open quickly.

Ye Ming had no objection to this.

During the sorting process, the two saw many rare treasures. Even they, who were well-informed, couldn't help but laugh at themselves for being like frogs in a well.

However, due to limited space in the museum, only some of the treasures can be exhibited.

"I won't interfere in your affairs!" Han Chunming deliberately scanned the crowd for Ye Ming, but unfortunately there were too many people and he couldn't find him.

Ye Ming and Lou Xiao'e did not participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony, but left all matters to them.

In the crowd, Ye Ming and Lou Xiao'e were standing in the front row and happened to witness this scene.

"Why don't you come forward to cut the ribbon?" Lou Xiao'e asked curiously. She found that Ye Ming did not personally show up for many things.

The business in the south was handed over to her father; the real estate in the old city was managed by her behind the scenes; the restaurant was run by Little Lazy Cat; and now the museum was taken over by Uncle Guan and Marquis Polan.

“A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. At a time when the domestic situation is still unstable, if people knew that these properties, restaurants, and tens of thousands of antiques were all my property, I’m afraid it would attract others’ covetousness, and then there would be endless trouble.

Therefore, it is better to be low-key if possible, just as the saying goes, 'build a high building, entertain guests, and then the building will collapse'..." Ye Ming explained his considerations, and this sentence came from Kong Shangren's "Peach Blossom Fan".

I have seen the beautiful Nanjing city, the pavilions and towers along the Qinhuai River, and the springtime atmosphere. Who would have thought that prosperity would be so fleeting? I saw him build tall buildings, I saw him entertain guests from all over the world, and I saw his buildings collapse.

As the saying goes: Those who bear the brunt of the attack are more likely to be hit. Ye Ming does not want to become a case for others to learn a lesson.

Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e remained silent.

In just over a decade, Ye Ming has accumulated assets to this scale today, and he can still maintain such humility and low-keyness, which is extremely rare.

This was the extent of their conversation, and their voices were soon drowned out by the bustling crowd.

No one would compare Ye Ming with the museum owner, and the same goes for Uncle Liu.

"I never thought that this museum was founded by Mr. Guan. I heard at the auction before that he was a guest of honor at Changze Auction House. I thought I knew a lot about the old man, but it seems that I have underestimated him. I must get to know him again if I have the chance in the future." Uncle Liu looked at the spirited people on the stage, and his earlier sense of frustration disappeared.

Who would believe that Uncle Guan did not put in a lot of effort to run such a folk museum? It is impossible that such a large museum is filled with ordinary objects. Uncle Guan must have taken out a lot of treasures, which shows his profound background.

If you can learn a thing or two from him, you will benefit greatly!
