All the immediate family members of the Qiao family are sitting here. In addition, sitting on the main seat is a handsome-looking young man with angry eyes. This young man is Lin Junhao.
"Master Qiao, I heard that the Lin family sent you an invitation?" Lin Junhao looked at Qiao Ruotian, the head of the Qiao family who was sitting next to him, and asked.
Hearing this, Qiao Ruotian frowned slightly: "Lin Junyi from the Lin family is back and said that tomorrow is Miss Lin's Deng Ningxiang's birthday and asked us to attend."
"Dad, what is Lin Junyi's plan? He clearly knows that we are going to deal with him, but he is still inviting us to a birthday party."[
"Hmph! It seems to me that Lin Junyi is clearly provoking our Qiao family. If you don't give them any color, I really don't know how many eyes Lord Ma has!"
"The Lin family is just a new wealthy family with a shallow foundation. Since he invited us, we will go openly. Otherwise, the major families in Wangjiang City will laugh at us for being timid."
Suddenly, everyone in the entire room started talking.
Qiao Ruotian pressed his arm and signaled everyone to calm down. He said: "Bo Ji, you can go there on behalf of the Qiao family tomorrow and bring some gifts. We have a direct member of the Qiao family, which is enough to give them face."
Already."
Lin Junhao, who was sitting in the main seat, had a gloomy face and interjected: "This may not be a great opportunity for us..."
"What a great opportunity?" Everyone was stunned and looked at him.
Lin Junhao glanced at everyone's faces, stood up slowly, with a ruthless look on his face: "That Lin Junyi has embarrassed me so much. He came back just in time this time. I want him to witness with his own eyes that a happy event turned into a funeral! Master Qiao
, they will hold a birthday party tomorrow, they will definitely be negligent, you are like this..."
As he spoke, he walked downstairs and spoke to Qiao Ruotian for a while.
After hearing what he said, Qiao Ruotian looked shocked and hesitated for a moment: "Sir Mr. Lin, this influence is not very good. If the matter is exposed, our Qiao family will be the target of public criticism..."
"Master Qiao, I promise to give you another 30% of the minerals. Once the deal is completed, I will hand it over immediately, how about that?"
"Thirty percent!" Qiao Ruotian's eyes flashed, he took a deep breath, walked around the room with his hands behind his back for a while, finally gave a high-five and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I did it. I hope Third Young Master Lin will keep his promise.
After the project is completed, 30% of the mineral resources cannot be reduced."
"Don't worry, I, Lin Junhao, will never go back on what I said!"
…
"Master Lin, Master Wei, congratulations on your sister's seventeenth birthday today. This is a small gift from our Jiang family."
"Master Jiang is so polite, please come inside, please come inside." Wei Gong greeted.
Today is Deng Ningxiang's seventeenth birthday. Hundreds of tables have been set up in the Lin family's huge backyard. Zuo Mo, Deng Ningxiang, Zhang Cao, Tang Yun, and Sun Yi are greeting each other at the table, while Lin Junyi and Wei Gong are at the table.
Guests are welcomed outside.
"Hey, it's the head of the Zhang family. It's been a long time..."
"Master Mu will come as soon as he comes, and bring any gifts..."
"The head of the Yun family has just taken over the throne, and I haven't even had time to congratulate him yet. Haha, I must have a few more drinks later!" [
Wei Gong greeted the guests familiarly. During this period, he was taking care of the family's business. He must have met many dignitaries and had contacts with many families. Lin Junyi also did not expect that Wei Gong, who was devoted to martial arts,
, also has a good mind in business and communication. Under his management, the Lin family is flourishing.
"Master Wei, tsk tsk... you are here to welcome the guests in person."

At this moment, a young man about thirty years old suddenly walked in from the door. This man was luxuriously dressed and had an unruly expression. At a glance, it was obvious that he was a pampered young man from a wealthy family.
"Young Master Qiao is here to welcome you, but it's hard to welcome him from afar." Duke Wei clasped his fists, and although there was a smile on his face, his tone was quite cold.
After hearing what he said, Lin Junyi immediately knew the identity of this person. The head of the Qiao family has four sons, the eldest son Qiao Boji, who is the young man in front of him, the second son Qiao Zhongqi, the third son Qiao Shuli, and the fourth son Qiao Jiqiu. They can be said to be Zhi Fan.
Ye Mao.
"Who is this?" Qiao Boji looked at Lin Junyi. In fact, he had seen Lin Junyi's portrait before. This time he pretended not to know and asked, just to make him lose face.
"I'm Lin Junyi, what are you doing, Mr. Qiao? It's already a big honor to come to your door, so why do you want to give me a gift?" Lin Junyi shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that Mr. Qiao didn't come. I have always been admired by Mr. Qiao. It's a pity.
"
Seeing Lin Junyi's true expression, Qiao Boji suddenly felt very proud. He also looked down upon Lin Junyi a bit, with a hint of disdain in his eyes. He used to often hear his father say how powerful he was, not even Wu Tong.
His opponent is nothing more than this at first glance.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. When my father is free someday, the Lin family leader can come to visit his old man." Qiao Boji said proudly.
"Definitely, definitely." Lin Junyi said repeatedly, and then sighed: "Actually, our Lin family's current status is just a matter of luck. It is far worse than your Qiao family. In the future, we will have to invite the Qiao family head and Qiao Da.
The young master is willing to teach me."
Qiao Boji waved his hand and said, "As long as you, the Lin family, show enough sincerity, it won't be a bad idea."
"This... let me think about it for a moment..." Lin Junyi said haha: "Master Qiao, it's getting late, so hurry up and take your seat."
Qiao Boji snorted, rolled up his sleeves and walked forward.
After he left, Wei Gong looked at Lin Junyi strangely and asked: "Second brother, where did you sing this song?"
"You'll know later." Lin Junyi showed a sneer on his lips and continued to greet the guests with Wei Gong.
It was not until noon that all the guests who were supposed to come had arrived, and Lin Junyi and Mr. Wei walked into the seats in the backyard to chat with everyone.
"Everyone." Lin Junyi suddenly pressed his arm.
At this time, everyone who was chatting stopped talking and looked at him curiously.
Lin Junyi smiled slightly, walked quickly to Qiao Boji, and said, "I believe everyone knows Mr. Qiao. This handsome and handsome young man is Mr. Qiao Boji."
Qiao Boji was also confused by Lin Junyi's sudden scene, but when he heard his praise, he couldn't help but think of what he had just said to him at the door, and secretly thought that he was going to join the Qiao family and deliberately slapped my face.
He wants me to accept him.
For a moment, Qiao Boji's face showed a hint of arrogance. Most of the people present were from rich and poor families. There were also one or two aristocratic families who politely sent a descendant of the family to come over to support him. Qiao Boji's wealthy family was the first.
As the eldest son of the family, among these people, there is indeed something to be proud of.
No one knew why Lin Junyi suddenly mentioned Qiao Boji, and everyone immediately became interested.[
"Today is my sister-in-law's birthday. Mr. Qiao has made great achievements and given generous gifts. This is an honor for me and my sister-in-law. I would like to express my special thanks to Mr. Qiao." Lin Junyi smiled and said to Uncle Qiao.
"It's okay." Qiao Boji waved his hand magnanimously.
"Young Master Qiao is really charming. I heard that Young Master Qiao is very talented, and the head of the Qiao family intends to pass the throne to you..." Lin Junyi complimented again: "I think the Qiao family will be promoted under the leadership of Young Master Qiao in the future.
Not to mention aristocratic families."
Hearing this, Qiao Boji immediately felt a surge of pride in his heart, and said with a proud look on his face: "Hey, you know this too? Yes, my father intends to pass it on to me. The Qiao family is now the number one wealthy family. If you want to
Being promoted to a noble family is just a matter of time..."
As soon as he said these words, the faces of several side disciples who came on behalf of the aristocratic families were extremely ugly. Isn't this a slap in the face? If you want to be promoted to a aristocratic family, you must squeeze into a noble family. This Qiao Boji is too arrogant.
.
"Young Master Qiao is magnanimous and ambitious." Lin Junyi immediately gave a thumbs up: "But I really want to hear about next year's family promotion challenge. A poor family wants to challenge the Qiao family. Is there such a thing?
"
"The humble family wants to challenge the Qiao family? Hehe..." Qiao Boji immediately sneered: "Who are the humble families? They actually dare to challenge my Qiao family. Even if they are rich families, two or three families combined are no match for the Qiao family. You
Tell me, which humble family wants to challenge the Qiao family?"
"I just heard it from hearsay, so I can't take it seriously." Lin Junyi accepted it as soon as it was good, knowing that the result he wanted had been achieved.
After Qiao Boji said what he said, everyone at the scene looked at him angrily. The meaning of his words was obviously to belittle or even look down on poor and wealthy families, and most of the people present were from poor and wealthy families.
The contemptuous words made everyone feel a little angry towards the Qiao family.
At this time, Ye Qingcheng, who was sitting at a table for women in the corner, couldn't help but pursed his lips slightly and showed a faint smile. This person was so good at doing tricks. He held others up high and guided them with words.
To achieve this, you must not only have an accurate grasp of the opponent's character, but also have extreme wit.
Of course she knew what the Qiao family had done against the Lin family during this period. Could this be his revenge? She didn't believe that his revenge would be so simple.
"Dear heads of the family, dear friends, the Lin family has recently become a wealthy family. From now on, we will be neighbors and friends. Thank you for your support today. I would like to offer you this first glass of wine. I will drink it first as a token of respect." Lin Junyi picked up a glass.
"Wine," he said loudly, then raised his head and drank it all.
"Haha, Master Lin has a good capacity for drinking, so I'll do it too!"
"Done!"
Lin Junyi smiled and spoke again: "Today I specially invited my sworn brother Ye Chong and sworn sister Ye Qingcheng to fly the longevity lantern with my little sister. I hope everyone can be a witness. With everyone's blessings, my little sister will definitely be blessed.
Long life and peace."
It is a custom in the Daqian Empire to fly longevity lanterns. Almost no matter how poor a family is, they will buy a longevity lantern for their children on their birthdays, write blessings inside, and fly it to the sky, hoping that a god will receive it.
, bless your children with longevity and health.
Let Ye Chong and Ye Qingcheng accompany Deng Ningxiang to fly the longevity lanterns. This was discussed with Ye Chong yesterday. Ye Qingcheng also nodded and agreed. During the month when Lin Junyi was away, Ye Qingcheng also came to Lin's house many times because she and Deng Ningxiang
We hit it off almost at first sight and soon became good friends without even talking to each other.
Following Lin Junyi's words, Ye Chong and Ye Qingcheng came over immediately. However, the moment everyone saw them, they immediately exploded.
"The head of the Lin family calls Ye Chong and Ye Qingcheng his adopted brothers and sisters. Could it be that...he actually recognized the Yiyong Marquis as his adopted father!"
"This head of the Lin family is really not simple!"
"Today's trip is the right one. I must try to get in touch with the head of the Lin family later. With the blessing of the Ye family, the Lin family has a bright future."
As the young master and young lady of the first family in Wangjiang City, Ye Chong and Ye Qingcheng were naturally unknown in the entire aristocratic world.
At the same time, Deng Ningxiang, who was dressed like a little princess, came over with a sweet smile, held hands with Ye Qingcheng and whispered, and then a servant brought a huge longevity lantern. The three of them
Each holds a corner of the longevity lamp.
Lin Junyi smiled slightly and said: "I'll count one, two, three, and you guys will let it go together.
one……
two……
three……
"Huh!" The three of them said their hands at the same time, and the huge longevity lamp blew a breeze in the air, and slowly rose into the sky...
