Shenhao: Please stop messing around

Chapter 106 Chapter 105, I have tolerated you for a long time (Update )
Lin Chu was somewhat uncomfortable with having a Richard Miller watch on his wrist.

I have never liked wearing these accessories. When I first started working, I bought a Tissot watch for more than 2,000 yuan for the sake of novelty and also for reasons related to the industry. However, it was only a novelty for a few days. Later, when I couldn’t pay the rent, I put it up for sale on Xianyu.

Lin Chu didn't take the sayings like "poor people play with cars, rich people play with watches" seriously, and even sneered at them.

Li Bancheng, the richest man in Hong Kong, always wears a Casio watch when attending many public occasions. He publicly claims that he lives a simple life, but in fact... he is the world's largest Patek Philippe collector.

The ideas of the poor are the interests of the rich.

And both of these are difficult to shake.

But today, this is just for show.

……

The villa at Jiurongtai is newer than Swan Castle, and it is said that the feng shui here is very good. Of course, Lin Chu also heard it from others.

Hou Chengjin's villa is a detached villa. A blond and blue-eyed old man in his fifties, dressed in a suit and tie, who looks like a butler, is standing at the door to welcome guests.

Lin Chu: F*ck?
British butler?
I feel like I'm being installed again.

"Hello, Mr. Lin. I am the housekeeper here. Welcome to visit us. As the most distinguished guest of the owner, you are free to visit and use everything in the house. If you have any questions, you can always ask me. I hope to make you feel at home."

He seemed to speak fluent Mandarin and it seemed that he specialized in serving the wealthy people in the country.

It's globalization.

Lin Chu nodded casually, and entered the house with two men and two women at the invitation of the housekeeper.

Standing at the door was a thin young nanny who looked Asian, but she didn't look like one. Lin Chu guessed that she should be a Filipino maid.

But it was Japanese style service, kneeling on the ground and preparing freshly unpacked new slippers for the four people.

Lin Chu: …

Oh shit!

So pretentious!
As for Filipino maids, they are very common in Hong Kong and the price is not expensive, about 6000 yuan on average. But on this side of the Taiwan Strait, they have not been introduced on a large scale, mainly because of the complicated procedures.

Not only Lin Chu, Gu Jiayan, Lu Ming and the others, they all felt a little shocked at this moment.

This kind of service is not available even in a bathing center.

"Hey……"

Gu Jiayan sighed slightly. Whenever she saw this kind of thing, she felt that she had become more patriotic. The concept of equality for all and people-oriented was not something that came naturally, but a long-lasting process of changing customs.

"I'll change it myself."

She decisively refused the service and replaced her own.

Lin Chu didn't care. He pursed his lips and let the Filipino maid serve him, but he didn't say much to her.

now.

Lin Chu's attention has been attracted by an incense table placed in the middle of the living room.

A huge statue of Guan Gong, shining with golden light, looks like a real-life version, but I don’t know if it is made of pure gold.

After all, the house has enough height to accommodate it.

Various offerings are placed on the incense table, and the incense burner is burning, emitting a pleasant aroma.

This statue looks quite shocking, but a little bit weird. Who would put this in their home? Even a slightly unskilled person would not be able to calm down.

However, after all, it's someone else's house, and how you want to decorate it is Hou Chengjin's own business. Just take a look and complain.

Guan Gong is okay, but if it’s a Buddha amulet, Lin Chu would just get up and leave.

Scared.

……

The reception area is on the second floor. Go up the handrail staircase and there is a screen at the entrance of the stairs.

After pulling open the screen, a rich aroma suddenly wafted out and entered everyone's nose, making people's appetites whet.

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall...even Buddha has to jump over the wall, so the fragrance is normal.

In the middle of the second floor, there is a long table that can accommodate more than a dozen people for dinner. It is made of wood and looks like mahogany.

There were even seat signs on the seats.

Lin Chu's patience with his pretentiousness has almost reached its limit.

Pujiezi, I have tolerated you for a long time!
As for?
As for that!
Family dinner, with place cards!
And pink paper!

Three Filipino maids were preparing various foods and serving the main dish, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, in a white casserole one by one.

Near the floor-to-ceiling windows is an American-style bar area.

At this moment, Hou Chengjin was chatting with four people, two men and two women, all of whom were handsome men and beautiful women. They should all be the anchors under their company.

When the screen rang, he stood up and walked over, clapped his hands, and said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Lin, welcome, welcome, everyone, please make yourself at home."

Lin Chu glanced at him and said, "This place of yours is really great. If it weren't a home, I would have thought it was some top private club. It's so luxurious." Lin Chu also had a teasing tone, but his words were not harsh.

Hou Chengjin said with a smile: "Excuse me, this is what I bought when I made my first pot of gold. It was quite extravagant at that time, and everything was in accordance with the aesthetics at that time. But as for the house, I got used to it after living in it for a while, and I don't want to move anymore."

His attitude became quite humble at this moment. This kind of pomp and circumstance had already been shown enough, and there was no need for him to say more.

"Sit down and talk while we eat."

So everyone took their seats.

Lin Chu's seat was next to Hou Chengjin. The people he brought with him sat on the right, and his anchor sat on the left.

"Boss Lin, we were just chatting, and it seems like short short dramas are quite popular recently, and I want to try it out and catch the wave of the trend."

Before I even started eating, he started talking about work again.

Lin Chu glanced at him, nodded and smiled: "This does seem to be very popular, but I'm not good at it, and it's not my track."

To be fair, Lin Chu still admired him a little at this moment.

Pretending to be cool is a bit annoying, but he knows very well what a man should do, which is to make money at all costs.

"Oh, I see. Okay, let's eat."

"Let's eat first. What kind of wine should we drink? Red wine or white wine?"

Lin Chu: “Whatever you like.”

The butler came over immediately, bent down slightly, listened attentively, and was ready to serve at any time.

"Then let's have some wine. I have work to do tonight, and it wouldn't be nice to drink too much... huh?"

As he was speaking, his eyes suddenly fell on Lin Chu's wrist and saw a watch. He hadn't seen it when he was playing basketball just now, but now he was wearing it.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be Richard Miller, maybe RM50-03?

Ok?
He seemed slightly moved.

Lin Chu saw his look, guessed what he had done, smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

Hou Chengjin: "It's okay, I was distracted for a moment, go get the wine."

He looked at Lin Chu thoughtfully and couldn't help but smile.

I thought to myself...Mr. Lin, he is really capable.

But it is also possible that this is the watch Lin Chu usually wears.

This watch is worth tens of millions.

Quite luxurious.

……

The butler took the wine back and sobered up for a while.

"Come on, cheers. Even though we have just met today, fate is magical. I think we are quite compatible. Let's communicate more in the future. If there are any opportunities or projects, we can still cooperate in the future."

Hou Chengjin poured the wine and smiled calmly.

Lin Chu nodded and smiled: "Sure, no problem, I think so too, we should get together more often. I live in Swan Castle, you can come to my house next time."

He smiled and nodded, his eyes moved slightly, and said nonchalantly: "Okay, Swan Castle, old money."

OCT, a traditional luxury home.

Lin Chu bumped into him and said, "What do you mean by old money or not? Money can be divided into new and old? Don't talk nonsense."

Hou Chengjin laughed: "That's right, you are being modest and insightful."

Lin Chu waved his hand and smiled, without responding, just drinking.

The atmosphere gradually became heated.

Lin Chu vaguely felt that he must have something else he wanted to talk to him about, but he was not so urgent and was still laying the groundwork.

Sloppy, but decent.

But I am not in a hurry. I will just eat normally. There is still a long time to come.

When Lin Chu first came into contact with such people, he felt a little curious. Whether it was their lifestyle or their aesthetics, it made him feel like his horizons had been broadened.

Overall, Lin Chu's impression of him was pretty good.

Of course, I appreciate it, but it doesn’t hinder me - I have to put it on elegantly today!
