Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 408: Everyone Acts and Pretends
After returning to Earth, Tang Xiu had personally undergone a subtle change. He was no longer a pure ascetic who had little desire. Instead, he is much closer to the faithful man of life, with seven emotions and six sense pleasures constantly influencing his every action.
At this moment, Tang Xiu gently looked at his dearest disciple who was asleep. Although it had been prepared for it, sadness and sadness appeared in his heart, the hatred towards Shade Demon Zhu Wushou turned even more intense.
Holding Gu Yaner gently, Tang Xiu placed her on the bed, noticing her sleeping form, seemingly suffering painful torment. Tang Xiu could only whisper softly, "Yan'er, Master will definitely heal you. And I will definitely make Demon Shade Zhu Wushou live a miserable life for thousands of years, for ten thousand years, even millions of years. ”
Amidst the cold, sitting cross-legged beside Gu Yan'er on the seventh floor of the beautiful pagoda, Tang Xiu quietly watched her pretty face for a very long time.
Dusk finally came and dawn came. As the new day approached, he floated up and decided to leave the seventh floor. When he came to the first floor of the exquisite pagoda, he saw Ji Chime sitting cross-legged on a hurried cushion in the middle of the room, cultivating silently. There was an extremely strong fluctuation of Immortal Origin Qi coming out from it.
"Master. ”
Looking at Tang Xiu, a sad look appeared in Ji Chimei's eyes, as he said respectfully.
Tang Xiu's expression was cold. He lightly nodded and said, “Chimei, take care of Yan'er. Protecting his safety is the most important thing. The next time he wakes up, I will teach you the leading cultivation techniques of the Eternal World, as well as the type of heavenly combat arts. ”
"Understand!" Ji Chimei said respectfully.
Tang Xiu left the beautiful pagoda. He had no intention of staying in the Eternal Feast Hall. Asking someone to drive him to the airport, he then took a flight to Shanghai.
It was already noon when he arrived in Shanghai. As she kept thinking of the "Buried Diamond", Tang Xiu got a taxi and went straight to the Glory Auction House.
The auction house was in a magnificent building with about 40 floors. On the way back to Shanghai, Tang Xiu had searched for information about the Glory Auction House through his phone. He discovered that, apart from someone named Hou Qingmin who was the General Manager of the Glory Auction House, he was unable to discover who the secret Great Boss was.
"Hello, Sir . You need to show your staff tag and swipe your work card to sign in. If you are not an auction house staff, please enter from the adjacent line. There's a registration desk there. ”It was like a MetroCard machine in a subway station, with six entrances sealed. On the other hand, the one who spoke was a woman wearing a blue suit and wearing a staff label.
Tang Xiu looked at him and then entered the next door according to his instructions.
"Hello, Sir . May I ask for your intention to come to our Glory Auction House? ”One of the two female staff sitting inside the registration table asked with a professional smile.
“I want to see Hou Qingmin. "Said Tang Xiu.
"What?"
The two female staff were dumbfounded, strange expressions appearing on their faces.
“I want to see Hou Qingmin. I'll have to trouble you to help me tell him about my request. "Tang Xiu repeated.
One of the staff forced a smile and said, “Master, you must make an appointment in advance if you want to meet with our General Manager. In addition, you also need to register here and find the Lobby Manager for it. About whether he can help you, we don't know. ”
"Good . I will sign up! "
Tang Xiu took the registration book and wrote his name and contact information. He then stepped into the lobby of the first floor. There was a row of tables and chairs in the lobby, where two middle-aged men and a woman were sitting.
"Sorry, which one of you is the Lobby Manager?"
Tang Xiu looked at one of them and asked.
The middle-aged woman stood up and nodded with a smile, “I. May I ask who I am talking to? ”
"I'm surnamed Tang, Tang Xiu. "Tang Xiu said," My goal of coming to the Glory Auction House was to meet your General Manager, Hou Qingmin. If it is convenient, I want you to inform him of my request. ”
The Lobby Manager forced himself to smile and said, “Master. Tang, our General Manager is unable to see any guests for now. Can you leave your contact information and ID? I'll send you your information once our General Manager is done with his work. ”
"So many problems?" Tang Xiu furrowed his brows.
“That is the rule of our Glory Auction House, Mr. Odor . "Say Lobby Manager.
Rules?
Tang Xiu was silent for a while. He then dialed Chi Nan's cell number and said, "Help me find General Manager Glory Auction House — contact Hou Qingmin. Faster is better . ”
"I have it, Boss!" Chi Nan's voice came out from the phone.
"You know Hou Qingmin?" Tang Xiu asked, slightly surprised.
“We have a little friendship. '' Chi Nan said with a smile, He once tried to break through our Thousand Revolution Array at the HQ Everlasting Feast Hall headquarters on Jingmen Island. Unfortunately he failed. Then, he came to eat at the Shanghai Everlasting Feast Hall branch many times, therefore we got to know each other and exchanged contact information. ”
“It's true. "Tang Xiu said," Come to the Glory Auction House, I will wait for you here. ”
At the long table, the Lobby Manager observed Tang Xiu with a strange expression. He did not know the person called Tang Xiu. But listening to the content of the conversation, it should be related to the General Manager, Hou Qingmin.
"Mr . Tang, may I ask what your job is? "The Lobby Manager thought for a moment before he asked in a gentle tone.
"I am a student . "Said Tang Xiu.
Student?!
The lobby manager forced a wry smile inside.
Pointing to a chair nearby, Tang Xiu asked lightly, "Can I sit here while waiting for my friend?"
"Please sit down . "The Lobby Manager nodded and said with a smile.
After sitting down, Tang Xiu then calmly waited. He then took out an economics book from his travel bag to pass the time, and then read it in silence.
More than 20 minutes later.
“Economic Principles? A good young man. Very young, yet you actually read this kind of book. To think that you are also reading the English version. Can you understand it? ”A voice rang out near Tang Xiu, waking him up from the dyeing of the book.
Tang Xiu looked up and saw a tall middle-aged man with a cool appearance. He immediately lowered his head to continue reading and lightly replied, "It's okay!"
Seeing Tang Xiu's actions, the middle-aged man immediately grinned, “Economic Principles; published by Mechanical Industry Press in 2003; N Gregory Mankiw. The book should be a relatively basic economics textbook for teaching materials. At this stage, the more commonly used ones are written by Mankiw, Soros, Van Ryan, and they also have the corresponding English and Mandarin versions. In fact, many entrepreneurs in China also seem to have seen the "Western Economy", which is suitable for the national conditions of our country. Thus, it is about the same as well. ”
Tang Xiu once again put down his book. He looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Are you showing off your education level or something? If so, I'd like to ask you. ”
The middle-aged man laughed out loud, “A young man should not be irritable. Anyway, what do you want to ask? I need to be able to answer one or two things related to economics. Though I know more about matters related to business aspects. ”
"Then, please answer my question. "Tang Xiu said lightly," Which dark horse domestic company group do you think will become famous in the business world in the next few years? "
"This ..." The middle-aged man fell silent.
Although it has been in the business world for decades and has great assets and owns many types of companies, he really did not know which group company would become famous in the business world in the next few years.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, and seeing that the man couldn't answer her, Tang Xiu then said lightly, "Because you can't answer my question, don't interrupt my reading time, do you? Judging from a neat suit and dressing well, you don't seem to be an ordinary person. Didn't you know that it's very rude of you to interrupt others but not introduce yourself? ”
The middle-aged man laughed out loud, “I'm sorry for my rudeness. After all, I am Yang Zhenpan, a businessman. I am one of the stakeholders of this Glory Auction House. May I ask how should I call this little sister? ”
"Tang Xiu!"
With a change in expression, Tang Xiu then stood up and asked, "You have a stake in this Glory Auction House? May I ask for help from you? "
Yang Zhenpan's brows furrowed slightly, although it quickly returned to normal. He carefully observed Tang Xiu, and then said, "I have no problem with helping you. I can naturally help you as long as it is something that suits my abilities. However, you must answer the question before I help you. ”
"Please, tell me!" Tang Xiu nodded.
“You just asked a question I can't answer. "Yang Zhenpan said with a smile," Because I really can't find a strong group of companies in recent years that can become a dark horse, let alone in the next few years, either, then I want to hear it from you. Which do you think it is? ”
"The Tang Megah Corp. "Tang Xiu said calmly.
Staring blankly in response, Yang Zhenpan hesitantly said, "The name of this group sounds familiar, I think I've heard it from somewhere, yet I can't remember it. Can you tell me about the Magnificent Tang Corp? "
“I don't think you need to ask me. "Tang Xiu chuckled and said," You just need to send someone to investigate it and it will be clear to you. ”
Furrowing his brows again, Yang Zhenpan thought for a moment. He then pulled out his phone and dialed the cell number. After her phone connected, she said, “Help me investigate the situation of Magnificent Tang Corp. I want to know the result in three minutes. ”
"Yes!"
After ending the call, Yang Zhenpan immediately sat down on a nearby chair, and then said with a smile, "Sister, let's wait for three minutes. That shouldn't be a problem, right? ”
Tang Xiu nodded and then also sat down.
The Lobby Manager and the middle-aged man nearby were confused whether they should laugh or cry, strange expressions on their faces when they saw Tang Xiu.
They're speechless. It was because Tang Xiu was looking for Hou Qingmin, the General Manager of the Glory Auction House, where the person sitting beside him was actually the Great Boss of the Glory Auction House, Hou Qingmin's direct superior. However, they could only sit at a long table, as their own Big Boss had already hinted for them to say nothing. Therefore, feeling annoyed inside, they busied themselves with their own affairs.
