"Brother Ralap Li, have you arrived yet? Remember to come." On the way, Muriel Zhou called. "Don't worry, Boss Zhou, we'll be here soon." After hanging up the phone, the car had stopped in the parking lot. Ralap Li walked out of the car carrying the plastic bag. "Amari Liang, go and do your work first. If anything happens, I will call you." Li Jun waved his hand to Liang Yong. He found that Amari Liang stayed in Chuzhou and was busy with other things besides helping him. It should be the old man's order. But Amari Liang didn't say anything, and Ralap Li never asked. At this moment, many people gathered at the entrance of the museum. They are all dressed in fine clothes, wearing famous watches, and have extraordinary temperament. They are all elites of Chuzhou upper class society. Coming to see the antiques was the second priority. The main reason was to get acquainted with Muriel Zhou, the president of the Chamber of Commerce. Before I could even step into the museum, I heard a surprised voice: "Ralap Li, why are you here too?" Turning around, I saw my sister Cyan Bai, uncle Buzz Bai and Kimi Zhu, who had just walked to the door. "I heard there is an antique exhibition, I'll come and take a look." Ralap Li said with a smile. "Ralap Li, how can you come to a place like this? You said you won't find a job after you come out. You just wander around every day."Buzz Bai reprimanded dissatisfiedly. He has become less and less fond of Ralap Li recently. "I'm here to see if there is any good jade and buy one." Ralap Li said truthfully. "Buy jade? Do you know how expensive jade is here? It usually starts at hundreds of thousands, how dare you say that." "And what's in that bag of yours? Show me." Buzz Bai said calmly. I'm afraid that Ralap Li learned something bad in prison. This guy shouldn't have any evil intentions at today's antique fair. "What I have here is money." Ralap Li said. He was not afraid that his uncle would know his current situation. In fact, it was my uncle who always looked at me through colored glasses. "You're talking in your sleep in broad daylight!" "Forget it, I'm too lazy to look. Remember, there are so many noble people here today. Please be quiet and don't cause any trouble for me." Buzz Bai snorted coldly, but the next moment he smiled like a spring breeze on his face and faced a fat man. "Boss Chen, you are here too." "It turns out it's Boss Bai. I didn't want to come, but it was President Zhou who called to invite me. How dare I refuse to give him the respect of President Zhou!" Buzz Bai immediately stood in awe. "President Zhou is a famous figure in our Chuzhou. I hope that Boss Chen can introduce me to him..." Ralap Li was too lazy to look at his uncle's face here. While my uncle was chatting with Boss Chen, he walked directly into the museum. "Are you Mr. Ralap Li?" As soon as I entered the museum, I was greeted by a man wearing a bow tie. Ralap Li nodded: "It's me." "Boss Zhou and several other bosses are chatting. Let me take you up." "good." Ralap Li straightened his clothes and followed him towards the second floor. The first floor is where the museum exhibitions are located, while the second floor is a private area. In the room on the second floor, there were five or six potbellied men, all of whom were prominent figures in Chuzhou. One of the women wearing gold-rimmed glasses, elegant and graceful, but with the aura of a strong woman, sat next to Muriel Zhou. On such occasions, the position where everyone sits is particular. Being able to sit in the first place on the left-hand side is enough to show the woman's status, second only to Muriel Zhou. A man who looked like a scholar took the initiative to talk to the woman: "Mr. Gu, Junlin Group has just acquired the land in the south of the city. I wonder if we can get a share of this project?" This woman is none other than Skye Gu , the director of Junlin Group . "Of course, Junlin Group still relies on your care in Chuzhou." Muriel Zhou laughed loudly next to her: "Skye Gu has already become a member of the tens of billions club at a young age. In the future, we old men will not be able to compare with her." "I think the next president of the Chamber of Commerce must be Skye Gu." Upon hearing this, Skye Gu immediately acted in panic. "President Zhou, aren't you putting this junior on the fire?" "Hahaha." Suddenly everyone in the room burst into laughter. "By the way, President Zhou, has the friend you are waiting for not come yet?" "It should be soon." Muriel Zhou said. "Although that friend is young, he is an expert in antiques, so I want to introduce him to everyone so that everyone can support him more in the future." "That's right, Boss Zhou's friends are our friends." The scholar-type middle-aged man laughed loudly. But at this moment, there was a knock on the door outside. "Enter." Muriel Zhou spoke. I saw Ralap Li walking in carrying a plastic bag. This way of appearing made several bosses present look a little stunned. But at this moment, Skye Gu suddenly stood up and asked: "President Zhou, is this the young man you are waiting for?" Muriel Zhou was confused as to why Skye Gu had such a big reaction, but he still nodded and said, "Yes! Ralap Li and I met three days ago. How come, Mr. Gu also knows him?" Several other bosses around also showed curiosity. At this time, Skye Gu left her position and walked towards Ralap Li. "Boss, why are you here? It's really bad. I'm not working in the company at this time. I came here to drink tea and enjoy jade. You won't deduct my salary, right?" Skye Gu smiled sweetly and said with a bit of coquettishness. Ralap Li Jun smiled slightly: "How come, for a beauty like Mr. Gu, how can I be willing to deduct your salary?" The conversation between the two shocked all the bosses present. Could this be the mysterious boss of Junlin Group? Junlin Group aggressively acquired Qingke Group half a month ago, and even the original team members of Qingke Group were hired. At the same time, it made several large investments in succession, completely establishing its reputation. Otherwise, among so many big guys, it would be impossible for Skye Gu to sit next to Muriel Zhou. But there have been various rumors about the boss behind Junlin Group. They didn't expect it to be Ralap Li. "I really didn't expect that little brother Ralap Li is a real person and doesn't show his face." Muriel Zhou suppressed the shock in his heart and laughed. Everyone else also stood up and shook hands with Ralap Li. Ralap Li sat down next to Skye Gu. Even Skye Gu looked at Ralap Li with a bit of curiosity. Not to mention everyone else present, even she knew very little about this boss. "Now that Boss Li is here, it's time for me to take out the treasure that I kept at the bottom of the box." With that said, Muriel Zhou clapped his hands. Immediately, several waiters came in carrying wooden trays. Soon, several antiques were placed on the table. "These are some of my collections, and everyone can pass by them." "Especially Boss Li, you are an expert." Ralap Li smiled: "It's just a fluke." Those things include calligraphy and painting, and blue and white porcelain. Ralap Li was immediately attracted by the Pisces jade pendant placed in the center. "Boss Zhou, I wonder if this jade pendant can be parted?" Li Jun asked. Muriel Zhou had a bit of a smile in his eyes. This jade pendant was originally prepared by him for Ralap Li. Of course, it's not actually top-notch. After all, he thought Ralap Li's value hadn't reached that level yet. If he knew Ralap Li's true identity, he would have brought out several other pieces of jade. "If Boss Li likes it, just take it,"Muriel Zhou said. "Boss Zhou, let's negotiate a price." Ralap Li picked up the jade pendant and played with it. The shape of this pair of fishes is very simple and consistent with Taoist ideas. The old man should like it. What matters when buying jade is fate, not that the more expensive the better "Since Boss Li wants it, let's give it this number." Muriel Zhou stretched out two fingers, representing two hundred thousand. But Ralap Li knew that the price of this jade was more than that, and it was more than enough to sell for eight or nine hundred thousand. "Boss Zhou, there's no need to give in. I'll pay you one million." With that said, Ralap Li put the black plastic bag on the table. Open the plastic bag to reveal the neat banknotes inside. Suddenly several bosses were a little dumbfounded. What age is this? You still carry so much cash when you go out. Especially cash is packed in plastic bags. Even Skye Gu next to her was speechless. This boss's behavior is really unique. "Boss Li, aren't you slapping me in the face? How can I make money from you?" Muriel Zhou pretended to be angry. When I saw Ralap Li acting like he didn't want money, I stopped buying it and finally sighed. "Boss Li, to be honest, the reason why I insist on giving you this piece of jade is actually because I have something to ask for." Muriel Zhou also noticed that it was impossible for Ralap Li to owe him a favor, so he might as well get straight to the point. "Oh, I don't know what it is?" Ralap Li also showed some curiosity. He had long seen that Muriel Zhou was not the one who suffered the loss this time, and indeed he had a purpose. "Boss Li has researched on antiques, and I recently wanted to buy a piece of jade from the south, but the price of the jade is too high and I'm a little unsure. I would like to ask Boss Li to help me with my palm." "I wonder how high the price is so that a rich man like Boss Zhou would not dare to buy it easily?" Li Jun asked. Muriel Zhou saw the curious glances from the people around him, hesitated for a moment, and stretched out a finger. "One hundred million." At this time, the faces of everyone present were slightly moved. Everyone present is worth more than 100 million, but 100 million jade is already considered a sky-high price. Ralap Li thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, I will accept this matter." "Then thank you, Boss Li." What followed was a happy scene. Ralap Li stayed for a while, then got up and left. He already had the jade, and he had no intention of being polite here with this group of people. "Boss, I'll see you off." Seeing that Ralap Li was leaving, Skye Gu hurriedly stood up. "No, just keep drinking tea." Ralap Li waved his hand directly. This made Skye Gu feel a little dazed. A beautiful woman like her took the initiative to send her, but she was rejected. It made her feel a little frustrated. Ralap Li walked down the second floor and planned to leave directly. At this time, a strong man in a black suit blocked Ralap Li's way. "Mr. Li? My boss invites you to come over." The other party said in a cold voice, without much emotion in his tone. Ralap Li noticed that there were a lot of calluses on the opponent's hands, and he must have practiced kung fu. "Sorry, I'm not free." Ralap Li glanced not far away. There was a middle-aged man standing there, with many subordinates like the man in front of him standing behind him. They were very evil. "Mr. Li, my boss is Avedis Huang, and he wants to get to know you." The strong man's voice was as calm as ever, but in fact, there was already a bit of dissatisfaction in his heart. What is the identity of his own boss? Even Muriel Zhou has to be polite when meeting him. Although the young man in front of him is a bit evil, he is not on the same level as his boss. "I'm not interested in getting to know him." Ralap Li said coldly and was about to leave. The strong man couldn't help but feel a bit of coldness in his eyes. He didn't expect that it would be a bit arrogant for the other party to dare to be so disrespectful to him after telling him his boss's name. And just when the strong man was hesitating whether to take down Ralap Li, a voice came from behind: "Perry, come back." The strong man glared at Ralap Li fiercely and turned back to the middle-aged man. Ralap Li walked out of the museum indifferently. On the other side, the strong man said angrily: "Fourth Master, I don't think this kid is anything special. It's Langdon Huo who is such a loser. How about I take someone to destroy him now?" "Have personality!"Avedis Huang chuckled.
