Chapter 816 Slap in the face? It's just the beginning!
Before twelve o'clock, Zhao Yuan arrived at the venue of Grandpa Wu Yan's birthday party, a very famous high-end Cantonese restaurant in Yangcheng.
This restaurant is also the Wu family's property.
As soon as he got off the car, Zhao Yuan saw Wu Yan standing at the entrance of the restaurant as a welcome guest. There were several other young people beside him, and Wu Cheng was among them.
It is easy to guess that these young people must be the younger generation of the Wu family. Letting them stand at the door as welcome guests. In addition to training them, they also want them to be familiar with each other. Because most of the guests who arrived today are well-known figures from all walks of life in Yangcheng.
Seeing Zhao Yuan from afar, Wu Yan immediately greeted him with a smile: "Third Brother, you are here, I'm afraid you will be late."
Zhao Yuan explained: "I wasted some time at the auction. I found another calligraphy and painting shop on the way and temporarily drew a painting, so I came a little late. Fortunately, I was not late, otherwise it would be too rude."
"Let's go, I'll take you to see my grandfather. I believe he will like you very much when he sees you." Wu Yan pulled Zhao Yuan and was about to walk into the restaurant.
Wu Cheng also recognized Zhao Yuan and raised his eyebrows, thinking that this was an opportunity to suppress Wu Yan, so he came up and said sarcastically: "Wu Yan, today is grandpa's birthday. Why did you bring irrelevant people?"
"What is an irrelevant person?" Wu Yan immediately retorted, "Zhao Yuan is my good friend and good brother. Today I came to celebrate my grandfather's birthday!"
Wu Cheng sarcastically said, "This is grandpa's birthday, not a place for you to entertain friends! Look at it yourself, who is not a well-known person? What qualifications do you have to live in the same room with them?"
Wu Yan protested: "Why is my third brother not qualified? He is the most popular supernova in the medical community in China! His Chinese medicinal materials planting base has made a big splash at this year's Yangcheng medicinal materials auction. All kinds of medicinal materials have been sold at high prices, especially today, his top-quality wild ginseng has also sold at a sky-high price of 3 billion! Whether it is talent, fame or wealth, my third brother is no worse than any guest today, and is far better than you! What qualifications do you have to mock him?"
Although he was ridiculed, Wu Cheng was not angry, but was secretly happy in his heart.
In his opinion, Wu Yan was angry with him and started talking nonsense. Although his grandfather was not at the door, someone would report his every move here to him. I believe that Wu Yan's words and deeds would make his image greatly reduced in his grandfather's heart!
Wu Cheng deliberately said loudly: "Wu Yan, Wu Yan, why didn't I know you could brag so much before? A ginseng sold for 3 billion? What a joke! No, this is no longer bragging, but lack of common sense. Speaking of which, you are in your twenties, so can't mature? You usually read more news and books, and you won't make such mistakes! And you actually said that your friend is better than the guests who came today. I know you want to show off in front of your friends and give him some knowledge, but you are so disrespectful to the guests if you speak nonsense like this!"
His loud shout immediately attracted the attention of nearby guests.
The guests' faces were not very good-looking, obviously because of his words, they had an objection to Wu Yan.
Not to mention Zhao Yuan, even Wu Yan reacted. Wu Cheng was taking advantage of the situation and playing with himself.
He raised his eyebrows and scooped back.
Zhao Yuan reached out to stop him.
In front of so many guests, if Wu Yanzhen and Wu Cheng fight, no matter who is right or wrong, Wu Yan will be implicated.
Although he stopped Wu Yan, Zhao Yuan spoke and said sarcastically: "I agree with what you said just now. You should read more news and books in daily life, rather than thinking about some bad things that are unspeakable."
Wu Cheng was stunned and surprised.
On the one hand, he was surprised why Zhao Yuan agreed with his words. On the other hand, he was surprised. What does Zhao Yuan mean after that? Could it be that he actually knew some inside story?
Because he was too surprised, he was even stunned for a moment without saying a word.
At this time, a new guest was attracted by Wu Cheng's words and looked at him. After seeing Zhao Yuan, he was stunned at first, then carefully identified it, then quickly walked up and said with a smile: "Is it Boss Zhao Yuan and Zhao?"
Zhao Yuan was very unfamiliar with this person, but he still said politely: "I am Zhao Yuan, who are you?"
After the other party introduced himself, Zhao Yuan realized that the man's surname was Luo and the owner of many Chinese medicine stores in Yangcheng. He also attended the medicinal materials auction today and witnessed the entire process of Zhao Yuan's wild mountain ginseng being sold at a sky-high price of 3 billion yuan! Like Zhao Yuan, he left the auction as soon as the wild mountain ginseng was sold and rushed to attend Grandpa Wu Yan's birthday party. Unexpectedly, he met Zhao Yuan again here.
"Congratulations to Boss Zhao, a wild mountain ginseng plant was sold at a sky-high price of 3 billion yuan. This is not only unprecedented, but also a future generation! The title of the world's number one ginseng will also be taken into the bag by Boss Zhao!"
After saying some congratulations, Boss Luo mentioned the serious matter.
"Boss Zhao, I wonder if there are still 100-year-old ginseng and other high-year medicinal materials in your medicinal planting base? I want to purchase a batch. Although the price is less than 3 billion, it is easy to discuss!"
Zhao Yuan did not rush to agree, but said: "To be honest, Boss Luo, there are many good medicines in my Chinese medicinal herb planting base. When the Yangcheng auction is over, I will return to Rongcheng. At that time, Boss Luo is welcome to conduct an on-site inspection before discussing business. Today is Grandpa Wu's birthday. We are here to celebrate the birthday, and it is not appropriate to discuss business."
Boss Luo was a little disappointed, but Zhao Yuan used his excuse very well. He could not refute it, so he could only smile and said, "You are right, I won't talk about business today."
While the two were talking, Wu Cheng kept opening his mouth wide.
He knew Boss Luo and knew that this person was a big shot in the medicinal material industry in Yangcheng, and was also a friend of grandfather, with a rich family property.
Such a big boss actually talks and laughs with Zhao Yuan and talks about friendship among his peers?!
Isn't this a illusion?
Wu Cheng pinched himself hard, and it hurt, obviously not an illusion. He hurriedly said, "Grandpa Luo, you said his wild mountain ginseng was sold for 3 billion yuan? This is impossible! Who can buy ginseng at this price?"
Boss Luo glanced at him and said, "When you have time, you can read more news and books, this matter has already made the headlines of the news. If you don't believe me, you can't even believe the news, right?"
Wu Cheng's face turned pale. He never expected that Boss Luo would teach him a lesson with his mocking Wu Yan just now. He also remembered Zhao Yuan's words just now. It turned out that Zhao Yuan was not echoing him, but slapping him in the face!
What Wu Cheng didn't expect was that the slap in the face was not over yet, and it had just begun.
A few more guests came over and greeted Zhao Yuan with a smile and said, "Student Zhao Yuan, it's you."
Zhao Yuan also recognized these people, all famous doctors in Yangcheng. They met at the medical exchange meeting in Shanghai. At the same time, these people were also members of the Yangcheng Acupuncture Association, so after the greetings, they kept saying thank you to Zhao Yuan. It was all up to Zhao Yuan that their Yangcheng Acupuncture Association could wash away the shame and restore the reputation.
Before Zhao Yuan's conversation with them ended, someone came to meet him again.
Wu Cheng was about to cry. Is this still over? Why do these distinguished guests know Zhao Yuan? And they are so good at treating him, either flattering or complimenting him. Is he really an awesome person?
