EBE Chapter 214 Young Master Wang
Chapter 214 Young Master Wang
Beijing.
Liu Lanshi was a little surprised when she received a call from her grandfather.
Because he just spoke to his grandfather on the phone last night, and according to past rules, their next call would be in two days.
He pressed the answer button and said doubtfully, "Grandpa?"
"Lan Shi, your junior sister is in trouble, just tell me whether you will help her or not?"
Old Liu went straight to the point and stunned Liu Lanshi with just one sentence.
He was stunned for a moment, then reacted and smiled helplessly: "Grandpa, you said it's my junior sister's business, how can I just stand by and watch, tell me what you need me to do?"
He has been busy dealing with work matters recently and had no idea that his junior sister was in trouble.
"Wang Tianlong, the youngest son of the Wang family, do you have any impression of him?"
Liu Lan frowned.
"Of course I have an impression of him. He is a famous playboy in the capital. Why did he bully my junior sister?"
"No, a few years ago, he bought a Hetian white jade ring with the image of Li Bai drunken, which was made by Master Lu Zigang, at an auction. I want you to find a way to buy it from him. If you can't buy it, then lend it to him. In short, you must get the Hetian white jade ring. Whether your junior sister's grandfather can clear his name depends on it."
"Wait, Grandpa, why is a Hetian white jade ring related to Junior Sister's grandfather?"
Hearing that his junior sister was not bullied, Liu Lanshi felt a little relieved. However, after hearing the second half of the sentence, he became even more confused.
When Old Liu told Liu Lan all the grudges of the past on the phone, he emphasized at the end that no matter what means were used, the Hetian white jade ring must be taken from Wang Tianlong.
This matter concerned the reputation of an old man. Liu Lanshi did not dare to be careless. She agreed solemnly and turned around to invite Wang Tianlong, the young master of the Wang family.
When Wang Tianlong received Liu Lanshi's invitation, he thought Liu Lanshi had sent the wrong message.
There are several circles of young masters in Beijing, and Wang Tianlong and Liu Lanshi are obviously not in the same circle.
Strictly speaking, Wang Tianlong couldn't get into the circle that Liu Lanshi was in, so his first reaction was that Liu Lanshi sent the message to the wrong person.
After confirming again and again that the invitation was not sent to the wrong person, Wang Tianlong was very excited.
Could he also rise to the top overnight and enter the circle of young masters that Liu Lan and his friends were in?
With a secret expectation in mind, Wang Tianlong dressed himself up and went to the appointment in high spirits.
"Master Wang."
In a tea room with excellent privacy.
Liu Lanshi stood up, extended her hand and greeted Wang Tianlong. Her words and actions were very easy-going, and she did not act as superior as Wang Tianlong had imagined.
He quickly extended his hand to shake Liu Lanshi's and called out respectfully, "Master Liu, you're welcome."
"Master Wang, please take a seat first,"
Wang Tianlong sat down in a daze, not knowing what to say, when Liu Lanshi picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea.
Wang Tianlong was flattered and quickly stretched out his hands to take the teacup.
Although the old man of the Liu family has retired and Liu Lanshi has not entered politics, Liu Lanshi's father is a high-ranking official in a certain area and he is in his prime, so he can still move up.
Therefore, even the most trouble-making young masters and daughters in the capital did not dare to provoke Liu Lanshi.
But now that Liu Lanshi was so easy-going with him, it made him feel uneasy.
Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.
Wang Tianlong couldn't believe that a pie would really fall on his head.
Even if there is, it is likely to be a poisonous pie.
He held the teacup in his hand nervously and asked tentatively, "Master Liu, did you ask me out today because you want to talk to me about something?"
Liu Lan smiled politely.
"Master Wang is right. I do have something I would like to ask Master Wang for help with."
Wang Tianlong breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good if there is something wrong. The worst thing is to have nothing wrong.
But he was still a little worried. How could he, a playboy with no knowledge at all, help Liu Lanshi?
"Mr. Liu, please speak."
"It's like this, I wonder if Young Master Wang still remembers that you bought a Hetian white jade ring from Lu Zigang at an auction a few years ago.
You should know that my grandfather loves collecting antiques, especially antique jade, and Lu Zigang is the founder of the jade carving industry, so I would like to ask Mr. Wang to part with the Hetian white jade ring and sell it to me. The price will be decided by Mr. Wang. "
"White jade ring?"
Wang Tianlong thought about it and actually found this thing from his memory.
That year, he had a fight with Lu Xingchen, which made his grandfather furious.
In order to calm his grandfather down, he bought a white jade ring at a high price at the auction and gave it to his grandfather immediately after getting it.
Now the Hetian white jade ring is in his grandfather's collection cabinet.
He raised his head and wanted to tell Liu Lan the truth, but when he met Liu Lan's eyes full of expectation, he changed his mind.
I finally got a chance to make friends with Liu Lan, wouldn't it be a pity if I missed it?
Anyway, he was the one who gave the Hetian white jade ring to his grandfather, so it was understandable for him to take it away.
He will give grandpa a few better antiques later.
"Young Master Liu, the white jade ring is indeed in my house. I can take it out when I go back." Wang Tianlong grinned, "As for whether it's money or not, just give it as you like. Both of our families are well-off, so don't worry about that."
When Liu Lan heard Wang Tianlong's immediate agreement, she knew that it was not a big problem. She was delighted, as she could finally give an explanation to her grandfather and junior sister.
He said seriously, "I am already very grateful that Master Wang has transferred this item to me. I cannot take advantage of Master Wang anymore. I will pay five times the price that Master Wang paid for this white jade ring."
Wang Tianlong became unhappy when he heard this.
"Master Liu, what do you mean by that? Are you looking down on me? The reason I agreed so readily was because I wanted to make friends with Master Liu. Now it seems that Master Liu has no such intention. It was me who was being too sentimental."
How could Wang Tianlong agree to the conditions stated by Liu Lanshi?
This is a good opportunity to establish a relationship with Liu Lanshi. If he agrees, then it will be a simple money transaction between them. After the transaction is completed, both parties will return to their own places and never have any contact again.
So he must take this opportunity to make his attitude clear.
I am willing to help you because of your face, Master Liu, and not for a few bucks. If Master Liu is sincere, he can't use money to get rid of me.
Liu Lanshi also heard the hidden meaning of Wang Tianlong's words.
He raised an eyebrow in surprise.
I originally thought that Wang Tianlong was a simple-minded second-generation guy, but he actually underestimated him.
"Since Master Wang said so, I would be ungrateful if I insisted. Thank you, Master Wang. This is my personal business card. Master Wang, you can contact me through this number in the future."
The business card was very thin, but it felt like a thousand pounds in Wang Tianlong's hand.
Because he knew that he was recognized by Liu Lanshi.
He finally took another crucial step towards the high-level circle.
