Chapter 214 Alas, being a man is too tiring!
Xu Yun and Ruan Qingnian came down from upstairs.
Seeing this, Lin Wanzhou, Yu Jiale, and another woman all came forward.
Xu Yun smiled and asked, "Old Lin, have you redeemed all your prizes?"
"It has been redeemed. I got a total of more than 40 yuan."
Lin Wanzhou asked curiously, "What about yours? Have you exchanged it now?"
If this kind of big prize were in the country, it would be impossible to redeem it on the same day.
If you bought your lottery ticket at the county level, you must go to a welfare lottery center at the provincial level or above to redeem it.
Not only that, after deducting the corresponding income tax, the on-site staff will ask you to donate some money to charity immediately.
On the surface, it is a suggestion and is voluntary. You can choose not to donate, but almost everyone who actually won the prize and went to claim it donated hundreds of thousands or even millions.
Don’t ask why, the reason is that we are loving!
In fact, it is the traditional psychology of the people that is at work.
After all, this is unexpected windfall, and people are afraid that they may not be able to spend it even though they have the chance to earn it, so they are willing to spend money on doing good things to buy peace of mind.
But it doesn't seem to be the case here.
After deducting the relevant taxes and handling fees from you, they will give you all the money that belongs to you without any deduction, without asking you whether you donate or not.
"It has been exchanged for me."
Xu Yun smiled and said, "I am a billionaire now. Let's go. What do you want to eat tonight? I'll treat you."
"Brother Xu, I won't go."
Ruan Qingnian suddenly said, "My horse won the championship today. According to the rules of the competition, there will be a prize of 200 million. I need to keep it here to deal with it, talk to the horse trainer and rider, and exchange my own prize by the way."
He was so busy accompanying Xu Yun that he forgot to exchange his lottery ticket with his secretary.
Then, after he finishes dealing with things here, he will go home again and tell my dad the good news.
Although the prize money was not much, the horse came in first after all, which made him happy.
Maybe if the old man is happy, he will increase his pocket money.
Also, by the way, tell him that he has made a very awesome friend, who not only won a prize of more than 2 million yuan, but even President Fu has come forward to try to bring him into the club.
Haven’t you always been saying that the people around me are all bad friends?
This time I’ll show you how great my new friends are!
"Okay then, you're busy."
Xu Yun said: "We will leave first."
"Okay, take care, Brother Xu. I'll call you when I'm done."
So Ruan Qingnian accompanied Xu Yun to the car and left before returning to the racecourse.
In the car, Xu Yun asked Yu Jiale, "Do you know where there is a good restaurant here?"
"Mr. Xu, if you want to talk about good restaurants, they are basically all in the major luxury hotels."
Yu Jiale said with a smile: "For example, the Rosewood Hotel where we stayed has the CHAAT restaurant, which is a top Michelin restaurant and it is very difficult to top the position.
Many people come to stay at the Rosewood Hotel just to eat the Cantonese cuisine in this restaurant.
There is also a great French restaurant with one Michelin star in K11 downstairs from our hotel.”
"Uh." Xu Yun was a little embarrassed.
After all this time, I have been enjoying the best things in Hong Kong Island.
"Okay then, let's go back to our hotel and eat at the restaurant you mentioned."
Xu Yun thought, let's go and see if the couple of best friends have left, if not, then call them along.
I'm leaving tomorrow, so just treat this as a farewell dinner.
Just when they were halfway there, Zhang Jin suddenly called him. The couple wanted to treat Xu Yun to a meal to thank him for the magical skills he had taught them that day.
Xu Yun smiled.
It seems that the couple have also tasted the benefits of the martial arts.
But to be honest, Xu Yun's Eight-Section Brocade exercise, which is used to strengthen the body and consolidate essence, is really invaluable and is a blessing for both men and women.
As long as he promotes it, countless wealthy men will be willing to spend huge sums of money to buy it from him.
Unfortunately, he is not short of money.
Therefore, he will only use this castrated version of the technique as a means of interpersonal communication!
Faced with the couple's sincere and repeated invitations, Xu Yun took the initiative and invited the couple to his dinner party.
Yu Jiale, who was sitting in the front row, was very surprised when he heard that the other party was Zhang Jin and Ada Choi, two big stars.
I didn't expect that I would be able to have dinner with two big stars today.
When they returned to the hotel, it was almost 7 o'clock in the evening. Xu Yun and his group arrived at the hotel entrance, took out their room cards, and then went in smoothly. They were assigned a slightly larger table.
Because together they fill almost a table.
The dishes here are all set meals, with each person having a separate portion, so just order what you like.
Xu Yun called Wanqing.
In the hotel room, two women were sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, chatting and admiring the night view of Victoria, which they had rarely had the opportunity to enjoy before.
I never get tired of watching it.
The reason why they haven't left yet is because they know Xu Yun will leave here tomorrow.
So the two of them discussed it and decided to go crazy with him again tonight.
After all, Xu Yun was really good to them and gave them a chance to change their lives.
Just as the two were discussing what tactics to use tonight, Wanqing's phone rang. It was Xu Yun's.
She picked it up and answered, "Hello, Mr. Xu."
"Have you left yet?"
"No, I'm still in the hotel."
Wanqing said shyly: "We plan to go back tomorrow morning."
"have you eaten?"
"No, we are waiting for you to join us."
"Then come to the CHAAT restaurant in the hotel."
Xu Yun said, "I have reserved a table here. Let's eat together. After we finish eating, we can go back to the room together."
"OK, Got it."
After Wanqing hung up the phone, Michelle came up to him and asked, "What did Mr. Xu say?"
"He is waiting for us in the restaurant downstairs and asked us to go down and have dinner with him."
Michelle asked happily, "Is it the CHAAT restaurant?"
"Ah."
"Wow, this is a restaurant I've always wanted to go to but couldn't."
Michelle stood up and said with a smile: "What are we waiting for, let's go down quickly."
"You have to change your clothes first."
Wan Qing couldn't help laughing and asked, "Are we going to go out naked like this?"
"Uh, I forgot."
Soon, the two changed their clothes and took the elevator to the restaurant entrance.
After telling the waiter their room number, they were led to Xu Yun's table, and then naturally sat on both sides of Xu Yun.
They discovered that in addition to Lao Lin, there was another man they didn't know.
Lao Lin rarely took the initiative to introduce them: "This is the tour guide we hired these days, his name is Yu Jiale."
"Hello, Mr. Yu." The two of them greeted each other politely with a smile.
Yu Jiale returned the greeting and said, "Hello, two beauties."
"Wait a moment, there are still two people who haven't arrived yet."
Xu Yun said to the two women, "We'll order food after they arrive."
"It's okay, we're not hungry."
Wan Qing smiled and asked, "Boss Xu, where did you go today?"
“The racecourse in Shatin.”
Upon hearing this, Michelle immediately asked, "Mr. Xu, do you bet on horses?"
"Played with it a little bit."
"What was the result? Did you lose or win?"
Xu Yun smiled and said, "It was my first time playing, so I didn't know how to play very well, but I was lucky and I won a little bit in the end."
"..."Yu Jiale & Lin Wanzhou
There is nothing wrong with this, it is true that I only won a tiny bit of money.
"It's good that I didn't lose. Every time I play with friends, I never win once."
Michelle smiled and consoled him, then asked Lin Wanzhou again: "Brother Lin, what about you? Didn't you play?"
"I played with Mr. Xu for a while."
Lin Wanzhou replied: "I was lucky and won hundreds of thousands."
"You are so amazing. You won so much in the first time." Michelle was a little envious, and then looked at Yu Jiale.
Yu Jiale replied awkwardly: "I only won a few tens of thousands of dollars, at least."
He had the chance to win more, but he didn't seize the opportunity.
“You all won money.”
Michelle asked curiously, "Do you have any secrets for buying horses? Tell me."
“No skills, just buy it randomly.”
Xu Yun reminded: "Small gambling can make you happy, but big gambling can hurt your body. The water is very deep. Don't think about getting rich by gambling."
"..."
After these words were spoken, Lin Wanzhou and Yu Jiale almost collapsed.
Brother, anyone can say this, but it’s hard to be convincing if you say this!
You said that small gambling is enjoyable but big gambling is harmful to your health, but you ended up spending 3000 million on gambling!
You said, don’t think about getting rich from it?
As a result, you won more than 2 million yuan, which is a sum of money that an ordinary person cannot earn in several lifetimes!
"I know, I'm just trying my luck."
Mi Xue didn't know how much money Xu Yun had won, so she replied, "I only buy a few hundred yuan each time. I don't buy more than that, and I don't have the money to buy."
Just as everyone was chatting, Zhang Jin and his wife arrived.
"Boss Xu, sorry to have kept you waiting."
"fine."
Xu Yun smiled and said, "We have only been here for a while. Please sit down. I will ask the waiter to come over to take your order."
"It was my husband and I who invited you today, but you invited us instead. I feel so embarrassed."
Cai Shaofen said in not very standard Mandarin: "There is also this restaurant. I have wanted to eat here with my husband for a long time, but unfortunately we couldn't get a seat.
I didn’t expect that I would get to eat it today, thanks to Mr. Xu.
So, Mr. Xu, let me buy the order later, okay? Give us two a chance. "
"Okay, then it's your treat today." Xu Yun nodded and agreed without any hesitation.
Since you have mastered the Eight Section Brocade, it is only right that you treat yourself to a meal.
Wanqing and Mi Xue both knew that Xu Yun and Zhang Jin knew each other.
Because they had seen Xu Yun and Zhang Jin talking at the previous party on the yacht.
I didn't expect that we could eat at the same table today.
For their circle, stars like Zhang Jin and Ada Choi are big names that they don’t normally get to meet.
To put it bluntly, if there are big names like them willing to support me in the circle in the future, it would undoubtedly be a great resource.
"Teacher Zhang, hello, Sister Cai."
"Yes, we both really like watching your works. We didn't expect to meet you in person today. We are so excited."
As the younger generations, Wanqing and Michelle took the initiative to greet Zhang Jin and his wife.
Ada Choi did not recognize the two people, but Zhang Jin had seen them on a yacht.
What's more, one of them is called Michelle, and was given to Mr. Xu by Mr. Ruan as a gift.
Looking at where the two women were sitting, he instantly understood the relationship between them.
Originally, he looked down on such a woman or didn't want to care about her.
But for Xu Yun's sake, he couldn't ignore him.
"Hello." Zhang Jin smiled casually and didn't want to continue the conversation. Cai Shaofen was very smart. She knew what was going on as soon as she saw her husband's attitude.
He just smiled and nodded at the two people's attitude.
Wanqing and Michelle felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Brother Zhang, Sister Fen."
Xu Yun smiled and said, "Let me introduce you, these two are my friends, both from your entertainment industry.
One of them is called Wan Qing, and she is about to develop her career in the mainland, while the other one is called Michelle, who is developing her career in Hong Kong Island.
If we meet again at work, I will take care of him if I have the chance. "
"Mr. Xu, your friends are our friends. It's too formal to say these things."
Upon hearing this, Cai Shaofen changed her previous attitude and said to them, "Two sisters, let's add each other's contact information later. If there is a suitable opportunity, I can contact you.
Although we are not big stars, we are still popular in Hong Kong Island and the Mainland. "
"Then I will thank you and your wife on their behalf."
Xu Yun called the waiter and said to everyone, "Okay, everyone, order your food. We can eat and chat at the same time."
Good restaurants naturally have high prices.
The lowest price for a set meal here is several thousand yuan, and the most expensive is 5 yuan.
Wanqing and Mixue looked at the prices above, secretly smacked their lips, and chose a medium-priced individual meal.
The same goes for everyone else.
Only Xu Yun directly ordered the most expensive one.
Since you are here to eat, you should eat the best and most expensive food here.
Now that you have money, you can't let yourself suffer.
Zhang Jin and his wife's eyelids twitched slightly.
However, this is also in line with the other party's personality and consumption level.
Besides, a meal costs hundreds of thousands, the couple can still afford it!
In a villa, Ruan Qingnian was having dinner with his parents.
The family atmosphere today is very good.
the reason is simple.
Ruan Guohua was very happy because their horse won the championship today and created the best result in history.
But after his son told him about Xu Yun, he became uneasy.
A young man who is only in his 20s and has practiced martial arts for two or three years can defeat Master Liang with just a few moves?
Another point is that he actually won two races in a row at Sha Tin Racecourse today and took away more than 2 million in prize money!
Only my silly son believes that the other party is just luck!
As an old member of the Jockey Club, although he is not a core figure, he is familiar with some of the twists and turns.
If you win the first time, it's luck.
He understands.
Then in the second game, after knowing the heavy bets placed by the other party, the people in the club will definitely intervene in the outcome of the game to prevent the other party from winning again.
But the result was that Xu Yun still won.
This is very interesting.
Could it be that the other party had already quietly infiltrated the Jockey Club's racecourse and was able to manipulate the race?
So on the surface, it seemed like he was just playing around today, but in fact, he was already very confident in his heart.
Otherwise he wouldn't be so confident as to spend 3000 million to buy three games.
Normal people wouldn’t do this!
The only thing that is a bit confusing is.
If his guess was correct, then why didn't the horse he bought win in the first race, but his own horse won instead!
To create an illusion or avoid suspicion?
wrong.
He suddenly remembered a detail.
My son said that before the purchase, his friend accidentally said that he wanted to buy his own horse to win, but because my son bought it, he temporarily changed the horse.
This shows what?
This means that he already knew that his number 8 would win.
He could have won three games in a row, but for some reason, he deliberately lost the first game!
Thinking of this, Ruan Guohua was terrified and shocked.
The mainland has deep waters and a strong foundation, and is home to many powerful families. This is something that the entire Hong Kong Island knows and understands.
Although he had not met the other person yet, after hearing about the other person's deeds, he instinctively felt that his son had made a very extraordinary friend.
If you're lucky, maybe he's the child of one of the top bosses.
I guess this is also the reason why Fu Baoying wanted to personally recruit the other party to join the club.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't seem to like it at all and rejected it on the spot.
"Qingnian, what was your friend's reaction when he won the jackpot of more than 2 million yuan?"
Ruan Guohua asked: "Are you excited? Are you happy?"
"No, I'm very calm."
“I felt like he wasn’t as happy as I was when I saw my horse win,” Nguyen recalled.
"Okay, I see."
Ruan Guohua thought to himself, it seems that his analysis was correct.
A young man in his 20s may not be able to remain so calm when faced with a huge bonus of 2 million yuan.
But the other party was able to remain calm and take it calmly.
Maybe for him, or for his family, the sudden increase of 2 million is just like that. It is not something to be very happy about, nor is it something to care about.
This kind of mental quality can only be developed by children from top wealthy families.
Ruan Guohua asked: "Qingnian, how did you get to know each other?"
"Forehead."
Ruan Qingnian hesitated and replied vaguely: "It was at a friend's party."
"He took the initiative to find you?"
"No, he is a fellow villager of my friend. I took the initiative to go up to him and say hello. We chatted casually and that's how we got to know each other."
"When did you have friends from the mainland?"
"No, he is the husband of Ada Choi, an actress in our company."
Ruan Qingnian said: "We got together a few times before. He knows martial arts, and I like it, so we played together."
"So that's it."
Ruan Guohua asked, "Did you treat Xu Yun well during your time with him these past two days? Or is there anything he needs that you can help with?"
"Is there anything I can do to help people?"
As he was talking, Ruan Qingnian suddenly remembered something: "He did ask me to help support a certain woman he had just taken a fancy to."
"Who?"
"Just a female model who looks OK, but not mainstream."
Ruan Qingnian said: "I plan to wait until Brother Xu leaves, and then let her come to the company to sign a contract and become an artist of our company.
Then just put her in a movie or TV show to play a small supporting role, and that's it."
"idiot!"
Ruan Guohua said angrily: "You said he was your elder brother, but you do things for others like this?"
"Dad, you don't understand. She's just a companion girl."
Ruan Qinghua explained: "I guess Brother Xu didn't take it to heart. He forgot about it after he left."
"What do you know!"
Ruan Guohua thought for a moment and said, "Go find Wang Jinhua for this matter and give the person to her."
"Dad, can Sister Wang take care of it?"
Ruan Qingnian said: "I can't control her."
Wang Jinhua is a veteran in their company and one of the gold medal agents. He has brought out many big stars and has a very high status. He really doesn't need to give face to Miss Ruan.
"Just say what I said, help guide the newcomers."
Ruan Guohua said: "Tell her that if she can be brought out, that's the best. If she can't be brought out, that's okay. She can be mixed up with some small roles, but she can't be idle."
"Oh."
"besides."
Ruan Guohua warned: "Tell her to keep an eye on me, don't let her get ruined before she becomes famous."
"..."Ruan Qingnian.
Why does my dad care more about this woman than I do?
Is Xu Yun my friend or his friend?
Just as he thought of this, his father said meaningfully: "Qingnian, you should keep in touch with your friend Xu Yun and spend more time with him. It will only benefit you in the future, not harm you."
"Dad, I know it even if you don't tell me. I'm not stupid."
Ruan Qingnian replied: "But they are leaving soon and can't stay here forever."
"Don't you know to go to the mainland to play with him?"
"Yes, yes."
Ruan Qingnian chuckled and said, "But can you increase my pocket money?
Brother Xu plays very high-end games, and buys horses for tens of millions. The money you gave me is not enough, and I feel bad to play with him."
"How much do you want?"
"How about a million increase?"
Ruan Qingnian tried to test him: "How about going from 100 million to 200 million in one month?"
"alright."
Ruan Guohua nodded and said, "I'll call the bank and increase your credit card limit."
"Thank you dad."
Ruan Qingnian immediately smiled happily.
From now on, I will play with Brother Xu according to his orders. It’s so fucking cool!
Not long after the two finished chatting, the aunt walked in from outside.
"Master, someone was looking for you outside just now and asked me to give this to you."
"Who?"
"He said he was Mr. Fu's secretary, and his name was Li Yu."
As the aunt spoke, she handed Ruan Guohua an exquisite invitation.
Ruan Guohua opened it and took a look, feeling a little surprised.
He knew about this party.
But why did you suddenly invite me?
According to the rules of the party, my identity should not appear on the list.
Is it because of Xu Yun?
Because my son is his friend, so he wants to get some information from me?
Or does he want to use his family connections to get in touch with Xu Yun?
In another luxurious office.
Fu Baoying stood in front of the window, holding some information about Xu Yun's trajectory in Hong Kong.
In fact, these materials are not difficult to find, and my secretary only took a few hours to get it done.
After reading the information above, Fu Baoying frowned and didn't see any clues.
During the few days he was in Hong Kong, he did nothing but eat, drink and have fun, which is the typical behavior of a rich second-generation.
Yes, he also slept with two second-rate female models.
One of them seemed to be introduced by Ruan Qingnian.
Men are all lustful, it's not surprising.
only……
Fu Baoying murmured to herself, "Two in one night, for two consecutive days, can he really handle it?"
In the room of the Rosewood Hotel.
After dinner, Xu Yun came back to rest without knowing that he had been imagined as a big shot.
I don’t know if a certain woman is doubting her own “hard power”.
Looking at the two sexy sisters lying in front of him, he only knew that he would probably have to stay up all night again tonight.
Alas, being a man is so tiring!
Being a hard-working man is even more tiring!
Asking for a monthly ticket.
