Chapter 67: The Grand Opening of Fei Ku Wang

  Huawei's face was stern, saying: "The other party is the granddaughter of the contemporary earth master Ge Lao Shen Xian, beautiful as a flower, talented and even surprised by Master, what are you not satisfied with?"

  Zhang Jun immediately thought of Lin Xian and hastily said: "Master, I actually already have a girlfriend."

  Hua Buqi said discontentedly: "A great man having three wives and four concubines is nothing unusual, this isn't the problem."

  Zhang Jun was speechless for a moment, three wives and four concubines? Was his own master still living in ancient times?

  Hua Buqi seemed to understand his thoughts and said, "When you reach the age and realm of a master, you will come to understand. In any case, the engagement has already been set, and we will welcome her as your wife in three years."

  Zhang Jun wanted to cry but had no tears, wanting to argue, but suddenly found that his inner heart was not strongly opposed. He couldn't help but smile wryly, wondering if all men would be unfaithful?

  But he thought carefully and soon discovered that behind every successful man, there is always a group of women who love and hate him. Just like a male lion, there are always some female lions guarding the home and yard behind him.

  The next day was the official opening of Tianhang Jewelry Company. Lin Xuan spent a lot of money on advertising, from soft ads to hard ads, from TV media to online promotion, and all were frantically spreading the news of Tianhang's business within a week.

  The invitations have all been sent out, and Zhang Jun doesn't know how many people will come. He and Lin Xian both put on formal attire and smiled at the door to greet guests. This opening ceremony was planned by the most famous team in the country, with a large budget, so the effect is naturally extraordinary.

  The first one to arrive was surprisingly Chen Fusheng, which made Zhang Jun extremely surprised. However, he still politely went over and shook hands with him, smiling: "Welcome, welcome."

  Chen Fusheng said: "Zhang Jun, congratulations."

  "Please come in and take a seat."

  The second to arrive was Zhang Wu, who had a dozen or so brothers following closely behind him, their presence imposing. As one of his own, Zhang Jun wasn't so polite and directly pulled Zhang Wu over to help entertain the guests.

  The third person to arrive was Qiao Ba. Although Zhang Jun had extorted a villa from him, he still wore a sincere congratulatory expression on his face.

  More and more guests arrived, including Zhang Guoqiang, Han Xiao, Ma Baorui and other classmates. There were also a dozen or so friends from Lin Xian's business and political circles who came to celebrate.

  Suddenly, two military vehicles stopped in the square, one in front of the other. Liu Ziguang and Liu Ling got out of the first vehicle, while Li Lao and Li Yunfei got out of the second vehicle.

  Zhang Jun hastily went forward and smiled: "Uncle Liu, Old Li, you've arrived, welcome!"

  Liu Ziguang and Lao Li exchanged a smile, they were obviously acquainted.

  Li Lao said: "Little Zhang, you're opening a new business, I'm an old man who must join in the celebration."

  Liu Ziguang also said: "Hehe, of course I have to be there too."

  Liu Ling smiled slightly at Zhang Jun and stepped forward, saying: "Don't forget the promise you made to help. Tomorrow, I'll go with my father to pick up things, everything is entrusted to you."

  "No problem."

  Soon, Shang Yang and Zhuang Wen also arrived, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, they were invited into the hotel. Next came Professor Guo and his daughter Guo Lan, who brought gifts with them - a huge, genuine chicken-blood stone, which was quite valuable and would be perfect for display in the jewelry store.

  Chen Fusheng looked from afar and found that the people who came to congratulate were either business giants or important figures in the military and political circles, and he couldn't help but be secretly amazed at Zhang Jun's extensive connections.

  Then came a group of Zhang Jun's relatives, including Third Uncle Lu Jianguo and more than a dozen others, with Xu Feihu even among them, apparently coming together as a team.

  As the time approached eleven o'clock, a fleet of municipal government vehicles slowly drove up, and Mayor Zhang Zongfu and his wife got out of the car, followed by several municipal leaders.

  The host hastily announced in a loud voice: "Warmly welcome Mayor Zhuang of Donghai City and all the leaders to attend!"

  Zhuangzi Ming warmly shook hands with Zhang Jun and smiled: "Little Zhang, do a good job, I'm watching you."

  Zhang Jun smiled and said: "Uncle Zhuang is here, our small shop will definitely be booming, thanks to Uncle Zhuang's blessing."

  More guests arrived one after another, and as the time approached noon, an old Taoist slowly walked over with a red envelope in his hand. It turned out to be that fortune-telling old man.

  Zhang Jun couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. He had no choice but to step forward, cup his hands together in a greeting, and say: "Elder Daoist, you've arrived! Welcome, welcome!"

  The old man smiled, revealing a few yellow teeth, and said: "I'll join in the fun too." After handing over the red envelope, he walked into the hotel with a smile, and no one dared to stop him.

  Zhang Jun pinched the red envelope and took a peek inside. In his heart, he cursed: "Stingy old man, there's only 100 yuan in it!"

  Just as the ribbon-cutting ceremony was about to begin, another car drove up and a middle-aged man got out. As soon as she saw him, Lin Xian's heart tensed up and she whispered, "Little brother, it's my dad."

  Zhang Jun's heart skipped a beat, but he was not afraid. He instructed the master of ceremonies while walking over to greet him: "Welcome, Mr. Lin, please!"

  "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the CEO of Lin's Group, Mr. Lin Hui!"

  No sooner had the words fallen than several cars stopped again, and this time it was Feng Yulong, the director of the Provincial Public Security Department, who came out. He walked over with a smile, saying from afar: "Little Zhang, congratulations!"

  Zhang Jun was very surprised and didn't expect Feng Ting to arrive, so he hastily went forward to greet him.

  Now, all the guests have arrived, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony begins. The ribbon-cutting is accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang Ziming, as well as several municipal leaders. The news media in Donghai City had been waiting for this moment, and they all recorded it.

  The hotel banquet hall, Zhang Jun hugged the wine bottle and went from table to table to toast, and soon drank half a catty of white wine. Hua Buer was also there, he and Feng Yulong, Lao Li, Liu Ziguang and others sat at a table, and they chatted quite well.

  Outside the hotel, Zhou Hong and Liu Ting watched the welcoming ceremony from a distance. He clenched his fists and said, "I didn't expect this person to have such ability, operating such a strong network in a short period of time. If I had such connections, I would have risen to prominence long ago!"

  Liu Ting sighed inwardly, her heart also feeling quite unwell, and said in a low voice: "Hong, why did you come? We didn't have any dealings with him."

  Zhou Hongdao said: "You don't understand, this person has a lot of energy. Liu Ting, you should get close to him in the future, maybe he can help me."

  Liu Ting's body trembled, and she said: "Zhou Hong, am I that kind of person?"

  Zhou Hong then felt that what he said was somewhat wrong, and hurriedly said: "Ting, I didn't mean it that way. What I meant to say is that after all, we are classmates, so we should get along well."

  Liu Ting sighed: "I'm tired, let's go"

  Two figures quietly disappeared into the crowd, unnoticed by anyone.

  Across the street, in a restaurant, Xu Bo watched the lively ribbon-cutting ceremony with an icy expression. In his heart, he was actually shocked by Zhang Jun's powerful connections, which made him apprehensive.

  "It's a pity that someone like him should have been a friend, but heaven has destined us to be enemies." He thought to himself.

  "Zhang Jun, enjoy your triumph for now, you will eventually fall into my hands." A glint of cold light flashed in his eyes.

  Not far from Xu Bo, there was a familiar face of Zhang Jun's, she was Ye Qian. Across from her sat a restless young man who introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Zhou Zhengyi, hehe, nice to meet you, you're very beautiful."

  Ye Qian's face was cold, she was on a blind date with a stranger introduced by her parents. At this moment, her heart was filled with mixed emotions, when did she, Ye Qian, also need to go on blind dates?

  Months ago, Chen Fusheng had already dumped her and hooked up with a 90s-born campus belle. She was heartbroken, feeling like she lost everything in an instant - her pride, confidence, and love. Or perhaps she never had love to begin with, just a pursuit of wealth.

  She had tried to salvage the relationship, but it was all in vain. The man who had wronged her had lost all interest in her, and even in bed, he couldn't get an erection. He said he was fed up with her.

  "Haha......" She suddenly burst into a crazy laugh, leaving the blind date man opposite her in stunned silence.

  She pointed at the ceremony across and said: "Do you know what they are doing over there?"

  The man nodded: "I know, a jewelry company is going to open, and it's said that the investment is nearly 10 billion. With so many officials and dignitaries coming to congratulate, I suppose the boss has a very strong background."

  Ye Qian laughed even more wildly and said to the man, "Actually, that boss had pursued me in the past, but I ruthlessly rejected him. At that time, he was just a poor little kid."

  The man was taken aback and asked in surprise: "Really?"

  Ye Qian didn't answer, she just stared blankly at the empty space, lost in thought.

  Zhang Junping looked at her, his tone calm: "There's a saying in my hometown, 'Don't bully young people who are poor.' Young people have time and energy. Although I'm not a rich second generation or an official second generation, as long as I work hard, I can become a first-generation rich person, a first-generation official! Ye Qian, thank you for being so direct, saving me from wasting my precious youth on a woman like you."

  And she couldn't help but shout out loud from behind: "Zhang Jun, you'll never catch up with Chen Fusheng in your entire life!"

  At this memory, she burst into tears again, attracting curious glances from the surrounding customers.

  "Was I wrong?" She got up with a swing of her body and walked towards the shop door with a lifeless look in her eyes.

  The man hastily followed up and shouted: "Miss Ye, are you okay? Miss Ye..."

  In the hotel, Zhang Jun raised his cup and walked in front of Lin Hui, politely saying: "Mr. Lin, please drink this cup."

  Lin Hui looked at him with a complex expression, then nodded and took over the cup, drinking it all in one gulp.

  "Mr. Lin has a good capacity for wine." Zhang Jun smiled slightly and poured another cup, "Please."

  Lin Hui drained his cup once more, then stood up and walked to the front of Huabu Yi, respectfully pouring a cup of wine. "Mr. Hua," he said, "when I was young, Mr. Yangling saved my life, and until now, I have not dared to forget it. Please drink this cup!"

  Hua Buqi let out a soft sigh, raised his wine cup and said: "I've heard your story from Shifu before. At that time, you were born with insufficient innate energy, and weren't supposed to live past eighteen years old."

  "Yes, my life was saved by Mr. Yangling, and I owe it to both Mr. Yangling and you, Mr. Hua." He said sincerely, and poured another full cup for Hua Bu Yi, "Please, Mr. Hua."

  Hua Buqi took another sip, then said: "The matter of your daughter and Xiaoyu, I've known about it for a long time, but haven't asked about it." With that, he stopped talking.

  Lin Hui sighed and said, "I also learned about Mr. Hua's origins from Liu Ziguang's mouth, and my previous approach was indeed inappropriate. From now on, Lin Xian's affairs will be decided by herself."

  Lin Xian was overjoyed from afar and looked at Zhang Jun. The latter winked at him with a mischievous grin.

  Hua Buqi said: "Let them handle their own affairs, come on, let's drink."

  Zhang Jun toasted a round of wine and finally walked to a separate table. This table was full of dishes, with several bottles of wine laid out, but only one slovenly old Taoist sat there, because no one wanted to be with such an unsanitary old man.

  Zhang Jun shook his head, walked over and sat down beside him, laughing: "Old man, I respect you!" Then he lowered his voice again, "You're also too stingy, only 100 yuan! Not even enough for a plate of food."
