City L, on the top floor of Qianggong Building.
A man in his fifties, wearing a white cloak with sparse hair and several rings on his fingers, leaned on the boss's chair with his feet propped up on the desk.
He took a long puff of his thick cigar and looked at the people standing in front of him with a pair of wolf-like eyes.
"What's going on? It's been so long and you can't even get a piece of land?"
A middle-aged man said hurriedly and tremblingly: "The main reason is that the man named Lin refused to let go. He even raised the price to the highest price and he didn't agree. There is nothing we can do."
Hearing this, the person sitting on the boss's chair nodded slightly, then put down his feet and stood up, walked to the middle-aged man who was stunned by the answer, and comforted him kindly: "Don't worry, it's okay. If he doesn't agree, we just have to find another way. "
As he spoke, he gently patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder.
This person is none other than Zhang Laowu, the chairman of Qiangong Group.
It was a very superficial name, but it was a name that came to City L early, and everyone was frightened by it.
Zhang Laowu slapped him on the shoulder, and the middle-aged man trembled even more when he heard this.
"Don't worry, don't worry! As your boss, I still have a little bit of magnanimity."
Just after he finished speaking, his eyes flickered, and he pressed the end of the cigar on the middle-aged man's neck.
The middle-aged man suddenly screamed in pain, his neck stung, and the smell of burnt scalp suddenly filled the office.
His whole body was shaking with pain, veins popped out on his forehead, and he clenched his fists tightly, but still stood still with gritted teeth.
Because this middle-aged man knows that if he dares to hide, the punishment he will receive will definitely not be just these, and it is very likely that his family will be affected.
As the first subordinate, he understands his boss's temperament and ruthlessness best.
Several other people stood beside him, as if they didn't see or hear him at all, and they were still standing neatly.
After the cigar was extinguished in the middle-aged man's neck, Zhang Laowu took back his hand and threw the cigar harshly on the expensive carpet.
"Whose surname is Lin? That's Boss Lin. He's on the same level as your chairman and me. Do you understand?"
The middle-aged man's face twitched in pain, but he nodded repeatedly.
Zhang Laowu then turned around and walked towards the boss's chair. After taking just two steps, he suddenly turned back and pointed at the middle-aged man's nose and said, "Isn't there an auction tonight? Boss Lin will definitely go there."
He waved to the middle-aged man, and when he came closer, Zhang Laowu said: "In this case, you find some people to help the welfare home on that piece of land, move, and help others is our job. Traditional virtues, right?"
"Boss is wise!" The middle-aged man understood and nodded repeatedly.
However, Zhang Laowu slapped the middle-aged man in the face and cursed loudly, "What boss? How many times have I told you that you have to call me Chairman in the company! Chairman!"
After saying the important words twice, the middle-aged man's face suddenly turned pale with fright, and he nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice to show that he really understood.
eight pm.
The parking space in front of L City Commercial Building was filled with all kinds of luxury cars.
Li Xue took Liu Xueling's arm, looked around and walked into the building. .
When he just walked to the door, he was stopped by the security guard, "I'm sorry, ladies, there is a private auction held in the Commercial Building today. You can't enter without an invitation."
Li Xue glanced at Liu Xueling, who nodded slightly.
Then she let go of Liu Xueling's hand, took out a red invitation card from her handbag, and handed it to the security guard with her head raised.
"Well, let's see."
The security guard ignored Liu Xueling, who had her nostrils turned upward. After taking the invitation and checking to make sure it was correct, the security guard handed the invitation to Liu Xueling with both hands.
"I'm sorry, miss, for wasting your time!"
"Humph!" Liu Xueling snorted, stretched out her hand and gracefully took the invitation between her two fingers, and pulled Li Xue quickly inside with a shake of her head.
Li Xue looked at Liu Xueling and praised, "Xueling, you are so amazing!"
"It's not a big deal!" Liu Xueling raised her head proudly, but her eyes kept scanning the people around her.
Li Xue didn't notice, but just advised: "But why are you so arrogant to a little security guard? It's just his duty."
Liu Xueling looked around, then leaned close to Li Xue's ear and lowered her voice: "These security guards are different from ordinary security guards."
"Different? What's different?" After hearing this, Li Xue was about to turn back and look at the door, but was stopped by Liu Xueling.
"Don't look back! They are very vigilant!" came Liu Xueling's hoarse voice.
Li Xue quickly stopped her head and continued walking forward side by side with Liu Xueling.
The two entered the special elevator, and the elevator door slowly closed.
At this time, outside the building, a Rolls-Royce drove slowly and stopped at the door of the building.
The car door opened, Zhang Dao and Lin Yaohua got out of the car one after another and stood at the door of the building.
Bai Xiaobo and Hua Luzi also followed closely behind.
Zhang Dao looked up at the dozens of stories high building, filled with emotion.
Before he traveled through time, he spent almost all his time commuting to and from get off work every day. He knew about this landmark building in L City, but he had never been here.
"Mr. Zhang, it's time for us to go in." Lin Yaohua reminded him softly, standing slightly behind Zhang Dao.
Zhang Dao slowly came back to his senses, nodded slightly, and then the two of them walked towards the building at the same time.
Mr. Zhang is what Zhang Dao asked Lin Yaohua and others to call him outside. Although he is alone in this world, he is not worried about his identity. However, Zhang Dao always feels weird being called the owner of the village in front of outsiders, so Let them call themselves Mr. Zhang.
When the people of the Western Zhou Dynasty saw this scene, they were all surprised.
"Who is this young man? He actually asked Director Lin to accompany him in person?"
"Looking at this posture, I guess he has a lot of background."
"No, even Director Lin and Young Master Bai are accompanying me. I guess they are probably the eldest young masters of some family in the imperial capital."
"Well, that makes sense..."
“……”
When the security personnel at the door saw Lin Yaohua and Bai Xiaobo walking behind a young man with an imposing appearance, they hurriedly turned aside and let the door open.
Laoyuan leaned forward to make a petition, "Dr. Lin, Mr. Bai, and this gentleman, please!"
Zhang Dao ignored him and walked in first.
Bai Xiaobo hurriedly followed, but Lin Yaohua stopped, reached out and patted the security guard on the shoulder, "Thank you for your hard work!"
The security guard didn't look flattered, he just nodded slightly.
A group of Westerners entered the commercial building easily.
If Li Xue and Liu Xueling saw this scene, they would definitely be angry at their unfair treatment.
When the elevator reached the 30th floor, the elevator door just opened.
Suddenly a wave of sound came towards him.
Lin Yaohua introduced Zhang Dao to the side: "The thirty floors are modeled after the architectural style of the Hong Kong and Macau Baohua Auction House. The seats extend outward from the auction table in a fan shape and can accommodate thousands of people. However, because today is a private auction, so Not many people came.”
"And the people who can come here to participate are all rich and noble, with hands and eyes as good as the sky."
Zhang Dao has no interest in this. With his current temperament, he naturally looks down on these occasions like children playing house. He is just a little curious.
Seeing Zhang Dao and not saying much, Lin Yaohua also didn't say much and led Zhang Dao to the seat in front.
Just as a few people took a few steps, an arrogant voice came from behind.
