After talking, they walked to a restaurant and didn't talk about business matters anymore until dark before leaving.
It can be said that today was a good harvest. On the way back, Baidu asked: "Are you so sure that you can win this heart?"
"He will agree. I can see that his ambition is not small." Qiao Meng smiled evilly.
After returning to his residence, Lan Hai asked: "Brother, why don't we continue to buy a few more materials to open it? This way we can become billionaires in no time!"
"You think too simply. The easier things are in this world, the less likely they are to be done easily. Just like how I can easily tell which material is of high value, things that are rare in the first place are often used by me.
If we find out, we will be targeted, and how can we solve these troubles?" Qiao Meng shook his head and explained.
"It seems so. I still think too lightly, and there are still many aspects that I haven't considered." Lan Hai also nodded to express his understanding.
At this time, Baidu leaned over and asked meaningfully: "So you can really confirm which jadeite is in the wool at will?"
"No, I'm just making an analogy. How can I see it so casually? If it had been like this, I would have been the richest man in the world if I had just gone to buy good stuff every day." Qiao Meng also knew that he had not paid attention just now.
That's a bit much, so hurry up and smooth things over.
Although what he said made sense, Baidu felt vaguely that the truth of the matter was not like this. Qiao Meng must be hiding something, but if he didn't want to say anything, no matter how he asked, there would be no results.
After that, he must pay more attention to Qiao Meng's secrets in choosing wool.
"Okay, let's all get some rest. We have another round of competition tomorrow, and we don't know the rules. If there are any new tricks, we can't do it if we haven't slept well."
Qiao Meng urged again, he just didn't want to continue to struggle with this issue. The longer it dragged on, the more he didn't know how to explain it, because there were too many questions that he couldn't explain in words, so he could only avoid talking about it.
I had a relatively peaceful sleep that night, without too many unexpected situations, no trouble with insomnia, and no longer feeling extremely excited and unable to sleep.
After adjusting their mental outlook, the three of them came to the competition venue together. However, many people had already arrived early. It looked like there should be more than thirty people. Today, since there were only a hundred people, the booth at the venue was also crowded.
The corresponding reduction makes it look much emptier.
About ten minutes later, all the promoted contestants arrived, and the host also appeared. It seemed that he was still in a good mood today. He probably had a day off yesterday and relieved a lot of stress.
"Everyone, it is actually not easy to advance to this stage. The finals of our country are relatively long. During this process, some people may lose their fighting spirit and be eliminated because of this."
"But this is also a test. Only those who have withstood such a test and advanced are truly strong. I hope everyone can continue to persevere. The treasure appraising world needs such a spirit!"
The host didn't know what happened, and he started talking a lot of hot words to the camera. He sounded so chubby. I wonder if he was led astray by someone.
"Do you think the host is a little weird today?" Lan Hai asked.
"Maybe he was infected by someone with chuunibyou. This is not like a sign of his true nature being exposed, but more like the fiery state of being infected in the early stages. The three-minute fever refers to such a situation." Qiao Meng observed.
After a while he said.
Baidu walked out from behind the two of them and said: "The analysis makes sense. This should be the situation you mentioned, and the infection is not shallow. It can reach this level in just one day. It's really
I don’t know which god did it.”
But Qiao Meng and the others didn't pay attention to what Baidu said. Instead, they were curious about where the pastry in his hand came from, because it looked delicious, and why his rest area suddenly became so luxurious.
There is a custom-made sofa and coffee table, and there is actually a beautiful woman peeling an orange on the sofa.
Isn't it stipulated that outsiders are not allowed to enter the inner court? What would they think if the broadcast was seen by others?
"What's going on with you?" Qiao Meng asked doubtfully. Baidu doesn't seem to be such a person who loves to enjoy himself.
"It's okay, I just want to create a different screen image. I can't always give others a calm and well-behaved feeling. People need to be versatile." Baidu said casually.
Now many people are looking here, feeling that it is really unacceptable, and then run to the host to complain. The game has not started yet, and the camera has not been fully turned on. There is only the footage of the host's announcement that was just broadcast.
However, the answer he got was, "The Baidu player did not violate the rules of the competition. The people who served him were the internal staff of the association, and the costs of these services were borne by him personally. This is also a sign of his willingness to invest in the construction of antiques in our country."
A small reward.”
Although many people are dissatisfied, they can't take anything against Baidu, because they know that this is all because they donated money, even though some people here are also children of rich families and have high status.
But it is still unrealistic for them to spend so much money at once. They are still young, and the family cannot allow them to squander it like this.
All because the notice stated that Baidu donated 100 million yesterday without anyone noticing. Even Qiao Meng didn't know when he did it.
In fact, the reason why Baidu did this was because of his family's wishes. He also suddenly received a message yesterday that the family would invest in his name.
And it's not more than 100 million, it should be 500 million. The purpose is to establish a good image in the Kyoto Antiques Association so that it can penetrate inside and develop in depth.
And this superficial phenomenon is just a deliberate smoke bomb. The one who really feels more helpless is Baidu, even though he is the current boss of Gulou City.
But he is not yet the person in charge of the family, he can only do things according to orders, and the person who gives orders is his father, the real voice of the Bai family.
It's not easy for Baidu to explain this to others. Even Qiao Meng doesn't want to make it too clear. It's not that he doesn't trust him, but he doesn't want him to know that he is still under restraint.
state and worry.
Everyone outside thinks that the boss behind Gulou City is the real person behind the scenes, but who would have thought that he is actually just the person behind the scenes that the family has photographed.
Speaking of the true foundation of the Bai family, even Baidu himself doesn't know where it is. The distribution of forces that are still hidden is not something he can know now. The only ones who know clearly are his father and two grandfathers, but so far
The only chance he had to meet his father was for a half-hour work report once a year.
"When did you kid get into so many troubles? I don't think there's anyone who's got a second degree of trouble today, and you're one of them. I even wonder if something happened between you two." Qiao Meng looked at him with some disgust.
"What's that look in your eyes? I just donated 100 million. He must have gone crazy because of this. Will I still be so happy if I spend money?" Baidu said dissatisfied.
"Brother, in fact, such a situation may really happen. I have heard that some people like to burn less money. The more they burn, the more excited they are. They may even forget about themselves, or do um... something.
Special deal." Lan Hai suddenly interrupted.
"You have nothing to talk about, but you are muddying the waters here by talking nonsense." Baidu glared at him and said sternly.
The three of them continued to fight like this for a while before they were done. During the process, Baidu accidentally revealed that the donated money was offset by the performance of Gulou City during this period, which meant that Qiao Meng had worked hard before.
He went on stage to preach and the audience cooperated with the audience to get the money, and he immediately donated it.
Now Qiao Meng had a dark face the whole time and didn't want to talk. He didn't expect that he had been working for Gulou City in vain for the past six months and he hadn't earned a penny, and his reputation and everything else belonged to Baidu. He was very heartbroken.
ah.
"Baidu, you owe me 100 million." Qiao Meng looked at him fiercely and said.
"Oh, what are you afraid of? Even if I give you 50% of the shares, isn't it worth the 100 million?" Baidu had no choice but to compromise on Qiao Meng's unhappy expression.
At this moment, Qiao Meng's face immediately turned around, and he said with a smile on his face: "Actually, I already knew that you would definitely compensate me. Brother, talking about money hurts harmony, right? Fifty percent of the shares are originally
I know you won’t be happy if you don’t accept what you want to give me.”
"If you don't accept me, I will be very happy." Baidu said helplessly.
"If big brother doesn't accept it, give it to me!" Although Lan Hai didn't know how much the 50% shareholding Baidu was talking about was worth, it was definitely more than the 100 million, so he immediately became energetic.
"Go away, why are you causing trouble? Can I not take it? It's worth at least two to three billion and I'm not stupid." Qiao gave Lan Hai a fierce look.
Gulu——
Hearing this number, Lan Hai was so frightened that he fainted. He had never seen so much money in his life.
While they were still chatting here, the bell for the start of the game rang, and everyone returned to their booths. Although the positions had changed, the booth numbers remained the same.
"Everyone, the competition is about to begin. Today's competition is a one-hundred-to-sixty competition. Please see the prompt screen for the rules." the host said loudly.
