"I don't think seven figures will do, but I still have some vision."

Mrs. Liu said confidently.

Chapter 180 Return

"You got any good news for me?"

Mrs. Yu, who was pulled aside by Gu Jia, asked with a smile.

"I just asked my husband this morning, Chen Xu is still traveling and probably won't be back in Shanghai until next week."

She was a little flustered when she was asked the question just now, but now Gu Jia has calmed down.

"I see, that's good news. I've already mentioned the fireworks show to Old Yu, and he said that as long as we have a permit, it will be fine. I'm sure you guys will have no problem with that."

"No problem, no problem."

Wouldn’t it be a joke if the industry leader didn’t have a fireworks license?

"What are you guys talking about? Come over and sit with us. Gu Jia, why don't you introduce the little cake you made yourself to everyone?"

Cliques and factions exist everywhere, and the wives' group is no exception; Mrs. Wang has always felt that Mrs. Li can sit firmly in the C position because she has the support of Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Ma. Fortunately, she is no longer fighting alone.

"Mrs. Ma, come and sit here."

Mrs. Wang deliberately did not move the high table away. Seeing Mrs. Ma sitting at the high table enjoying the cake, she realized that this guy who claimed to be a cultured person was not much better than her. At most, he could only be compared to her.

"The high table is for the servants to sit on. Tell them to eat quickly and leave quickly..."

Mrs. Wang held Mrs. Ma's hand and whispered to her, "Learn and apply immediately." This not only demonstrated her level, but also did not embarrass her.

"I know that. I think the rosewood is good..."

Mrs. Ma explained with a red face, especially after seeing Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu looking at her with a smile.

"Mrs. Wang, your family is really wealthy. You have even managed to get these tables and chairs."

Mrs. Li was a connoisseur of what she said, and she hinted at something but didn't say it explicitly.

"He is indeed very wealthy. He even uses rosewood for his servants."

Mrs. Ma thought Mrs. Li was talking about the set of rosewood table and chairs, and was eager to get rid of the embarrassment, so she spoke quickly.

"Red sandalwood is not that precious. We are talking about this set of golden nanmu. Five years ago, when my husband and I went to Macau to visit the gambling king He, we had the honor of seeing it at their home. I didn't expect that Mrs. Wang also had it at home. It really opened my eyes..."

An old whore who is about to be divorced by her husband, what is she showing off for? Mrs. Li has a smile on her face, but she is a bitch in her heart.

"As long as you are satisfied..."

Mrs. Wang didn't explain much and just agreed with a smile.

Although everyone seemed to be having fun on the surface, there were undercurrents behind the scenes. This afternoon tea started and ended in this weird atmosphere.

……

After all, it was something worth 3 million yuan, and Mrs. Wang didn't want to take the risk of leaving it overnight. Less than an hour after the wives' group left, she called the moving company again.

"Xiaoqin, can I tell you something?"

After much consideration, Gu Jia decided to tell Zhong Xiaoqin what she learned from Mrs. Yu about Chen Xu, and of course the value of the set of dining table and chairs.

"What's the matter? Let me tell you first. I only want to hear good news now, don't you think so, Pikachu..."

Fearing that Zhong Xiaoqin would feel bored at home alone during the day, Zhong's mother sent her beloved cat over; since there was a cattery, Chen Yu couldn't object. He couldn't just allow the officials to set fires while not allowing the people to light lamps.

"Have you ever known how much money Chen Xu has?"

"Why should I know this? His money is not...wait, he really gave us a lot of money. Why are you telling me this so suddenly?"

Zhong Xiaoqin felt that this was not something she should care about, and even less something Gu Jia should care about.

"I've been hanging out with Mrs. Wang these days, and there's Mrs. Yu in that circle. As soon as she heard that I was the boss lady of Jiamei Fireworks, she asked me about Chen Xu..."

"Oh my god, this bastard Chen Xu, is he really planning to become the King of the Sea?"

As best friends for many years, Zhong Xiaoqin immediately understood what Gu Jia had not said.

"That woman told me something about Chen Xu..."

"What? Earning 1 billion a day? You believe that."

Zhong Xiaoqin felt that Gu Jia must have been bewitched by Mrs. Yu.

"She doesn't seem to be lying. Also, do you know why I asked you to borrow that set of tables and chairs today?"

"The table and chairs were left behind by Chen Xu. Are they valuable?"

It is true that a woman becomes stupid for three years after pregnancy. When faced with such a situation, Zhong Xiaoqin was very smart.

"It is very valuable. Do you know how much it is worth?"

Gu Jia held up three fingers and gave a hint, and was sure that Zhong Xiaoqin would not be able to guess it.

"Three hundred thousand?"

"No, I'm just making a bold guess..."

"three million?"

"This set of tables and chairs is made of golden nanmu wood. I saw similar ones on the Internet that could be sold for 3 million yuan. Even so, there is still no price in the market. Now can you imagine how much money Chen Xu has?"

After teasing Zhong Xiaoqin, knowing that she would definitely not be able to guess it, Gu Jia announced the correct answer.

"3 million? Are you sure you're not mistaken..."

It was only Gu Jia who spoke, otherwise Zhong Xiaoqin would not have paid any attention to her.

"I was also afraid that I couldn't be sure, so today I asked those who have seen the world in the wives' circle to judge it; among them was a Mrs. Li, she said very confidently that the item was fine, and she had seen something similar at the home of the Macau gambling king five years ago..."

Gu Jia concealed her intention to save face and instead said that she wanted someone to take a look.

"Oh my goodness, I've been begging for food with a golden bowl these days. Gu Gu, I've decided; we're going to hire a maid to help me clean and do housework..."

Zhong Xiaoqin's way of thinking is a little different.

"I told you a long time ago that you can't clean up such a big house by yourself, not to mention that you are pregnant now."

Gu Jia was not surprised at all by Zhong Xiaoqin's jumpy nerves.

"Wait, Gu Gu, Chen Xu left a lot of things behind. Can you help me check and see if there are any tables and chairs similar to these..."

"You are so greedy. Three hundred million is not enough."

Gu Jia tapped Zhong Xiaoqin's forehead and scolded with a smile.

"Chen Xu is so generous. As his sister-in-law, I can't let him down. Can you help me look for it again?"

The two say they are best friends, but sometimes they get along like mother and daughter; that's right, Zhong Xiaoqin often acts like a daughter, acting coquettishly in Gu Jia's arms.

.........

Every story has an ending, just as every journey has an end. In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

"What are you thinking about? You are so absorbed."

Chen Xu hugged the dazed Wang Manni and spoke gently in her ear.

“I wonder when we’ll have our next trip.”

"There will be plenty of opportunities after traveling. Your first dessert shop is about to open. As the boss, you are not excited at all."

Women must find something for them to do, otherwise, if they meet someone like themselves, they will sooner or later become shrews. This is also a piece of experience summed up by Chen Xu.

Of course, Wang Manni also noticed Chen Xu's thoughts. He wanted to be with her, but was afraid of being entangled with her. This was the typical mentality of a scumbag.

But some things are better known than spoken, unless one is cruel enough to leave, which she obviously cannot do after having just tasted the sweetness.

Chapter 181 Arrangement

Magic City TV

news department

Just like in the original drama, the newcomer forgot to turn on the video recorder during the interview, and dug a big hole that buried everyone in the department; Deputy Director Chen Yu was also pulled in to put out the fire with several other colleagues.

"Xiao Li, did you get through on the call?"

Chen Yu foolishly placed his hopes on his friend from the internet media.

"Director, no one answered the phone. How about I go over there?"

"Then go quickly."

After working in the station for so many years, this is the first time Chen Yu has encountered such a situation.

"Chen Yu, this is too big a responsibility for us to shoulder. Let's notify Sister Lu as soon as possible."

Old Song glanced at the intern who had made a mistake and had become autistic, and said to Chen Yu.

"What's the point of telling her this now? We need to find a way to make amends. We've also gone to interview the online media. As long as Xiao Li can get the video footage back soon, there's still room for this matter to turn around."

Looking at the silent intern in front of him, Chen Yu seemed to see himself many years ago. He decided to take whatever he could get.

"Old Song, how is the manuscript? Are you ready?"

What you fear will come true. Lu Bing rushed in anxiously.

"Sister Lu, I was just about to tell you, there's a big problem..."

Old Song was not as responsible as Chen Yu, so he directly told Lu Bing the cause of the incident.

"It's such a big current affairs news, and you let an intern go to report it. You are really amazing."

This pot is so big that even Lu Bing feels the pressure.

"The online media also went to the interview today. I asked Xiao Li to go over there. Maybe we can get the video. This way we still have a chance to settle this matter."

Chen Yu shared his ideas.

"We have a censorship mechanism for videos at our station. Even if we get the videos from online media, we won't be able to broadcast them in time."

In Lu Bing's opinion, Chen Yu's idea didn't need to be considered at all, because he was her man's brother. Otherwise, who else could she criticize if not him, such a smart-aleck guy?

"Chen Yu, you don't have to worry about this. Get this news out as soon as possible and get it out before three o'clock..."

There definitely can't be only one piece of current affairs news every day, so Lu Bing selected another one with complete information and gave it to Chen Yu to handle.

When Chen Yu got home from get off work that evening, he did not play with his fish as usual. Instead, he turned on the TV immediately and watched his own channel.

"What's wrong? It's already off work, but you're still worried about your work at the station."

The trivial matters were left to the servants, and the two of them communicated a lot more than before. Zhong Xiaoqin also slowly learned from Gu Jia and began to care about her husband's work.

"There was an accident, a very troublesome one."

Seeing that the news being broadcast was the one he had prepared, Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Will it affect you?"

"It will definitely have an impact. After all, I just got promoted to deputy director and this is when I encountered this kind of thing."

Chen Yu could only blame himself for his bad luck.

"Should we give Chen Xu a call and tell him..."

"No need. Lu Bing can't take care of herself in this matter. She has helped me to get rid of most of the responsibility. If it really doesn't work out, I'll just go back to my original job."

Chen Yu was also a man who cared about his reputation, and he couldn't afford to lose face by calling his brother about something like this.

.........

Tomson Yipin

After such a big mess, Lu Bing, who was busy at the station until seven o'clock and got off work, was really exhausted physically and mentally.

"what"

She saw that there were more shoes in the shoe cabinet at the door.

"surprise"

When she opened the door, Chen Xu, holding a cake, gave her a big surprise.

"I was so scared. When did you come back? You didn't tell me earlier."
