This truffle was indeed specially prepared by Xia Ruofei. He already knew that Ma Xiong liked truffles very much. Among the white truffles produced this time, there were several pieces that weighed more than 2.5 kilograms. Even if they were distributed in four auctions, it would be enough.
Therefore, he specifically picked a truffle that was about the same weight as the final truffle of the auction. It was enough to give Ma Xiong face.
When Ma Xiong saw this huge white truffle, he was stunned on the spot.
He couldn't believe it. He wondered if he had heard wrong. He couldn't help but quickly turn to Xia Ruofei and ask, "Xia Sheng, you … you mean … this white truffle isn't for the auction?"
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but laugh and ask, "Mr. Ma, this white truffle weighs 2.67 kilograms. Did you see this white truffle in the relevant data we sent?"
Ma Xiong quickly said, "No! No! "
"So … I specially prepared it for you." Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I hope you are satisfied!"
"Satisfied! Satisfied! "Ma Xiong said," Xia Sheng, you are so kind! I can wake up laughing from my dreams! "
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
After Ma Xiong finished speaking, he looked at the basketball-sized white truffle as if he was looking at a peerless beauty. He smiled happily.
Ma Zhiming hesitated and said, "Xia Sheng, such a big truffle is very rare. It's better to auction it …"
Ma Xiong suddenly glared at Ma Zhiming, but he also knew that his son was right. He really wanted this white truffle, but rationally, it was naturally the most appropriate to auction it. If there wasn't another 2.73 kilogram white truffle, it would be a truffle that broke the world record!
Although he was very reluctant, he couldn't scold Ma Zhiming. Ma Xiong's expression became very strange.
Xia Ruofei laughed in his heart and said, "Mr. Ma, it doesn't matter! This truffle seems to be relatively rare now, but this year's truffle production season is still very long. Maybe in a few months, a truffle of this size won't be much … "
Xia Ruofei's words had a deeper meaning, and Ma Xiong and Ma Zhi Ming naturally understood it. They looked at each other and couldn't hide their joy.
They knew that Xia Ruofei's words meant that he could find more of these top quality truffles. In addition, Xia Ruofei said before that this season's truffles may not be auctioned only once. They will cooperate many times, which is even more obvious.
Ma Xiong nodded heavily and said, "Xia Sheng, no matter what, the Ma Family and Hengfeng Group will always be your most trustworthy and most loyal partner!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded.
Ma Xiong picked up the white truffle and pointed to another white truffle that was going to be auctioned. "Xia Sheng, I'll take this first! When the time comes, we'll settle the bill according to the auction price of this truffle! "
Ma Xiong loved the best abalones and truffles of the Taoyuan Company. Xia Ruofei was willing to let him buy directly in private, so he naturally wouldn't be polite. However, he would never let Xia Ruofei suffer a loss in terms of price.
This time was the same. When the 2.73 kg white truffle was auctioned, he would buy the truffle that Xia Ruofei specially reserved for him at the same price.
Xia Ruofei knew Ma Xiong's temper, so he didn't refuse. He just smiled and said, "Okay, we'll do as you say!"
Ma Xiong originally wanted to talk more with Xia Ruofei, but after getting this white truffle, he was eager to go home.
Such a good thing, of course, had to be taken back and stored as soon as possible.
The truffle itself was a precious ingredient that wasn't easy to preserve. Even if it was stored with the most scientific and reasonable method, it could only be stored for a week or two at most, so it had to be eaten as soon as possible.
With such a large piece of truffle, Ma Xiong could easily call his friends and find those old gluttons who shared the same interests as him to feast together.
"Xia Sheng, I'll go back first." Ma Xiong said, "We'll talk again when we have dinner tonight!"
Then Ma Xiong asked Ma Zhiming and Tian Huixin to accompany Xia Ruofei and chat for a while, and he left first.
Ma Zhiming watched Ma Xiong leave and shook his head with a bitter smile. He said to Xia Ruofei, "Xia Sheng, my father's character is like this. Don't mind …"
"How can it be!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Mr. Ma is a person with a temperament. He and I get along quite well."
"That's good, that's good …" said Ma Zhiming.
"Right, Mr. Ma, how are you recovering?" Xia Ruofei asked in a low voice.
Tian Huixin was chatting with Feng Jing, but she seemed to have heard Xia Ruofei's words. She couldn't help but blush slightly.
Huanhuan was sitting on Xia Ruofei's lap. Children didn't understand these things, so Ma Zhiming wasn't too embarrassed.
He showed a trace of gratitude and said, "I'm recovering very well! Xia Sheng, thank you so much! You see … our entire family owes you so many favors … "
Xia Ruofei waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. You're welcome. We're friends. Isn't it normal for friends to help each other?"
"Yes, yes, yes. We're friends!" Ma Zhiming said quickly.
Although he was the eldest son of the Ma family and controlled tens of billions of assets, he was very grateful that the Ma family could make a friend like Xia Ruofei.
Obviously, the other party's wealth was far from his own, but Ma Zhiming often felt that he was climbing up the social ladder.
Ma Zhiming's family of three stayed in Xia Ruofei's room for about an hour. Considering that Xia Ruofei was tired from the long journey, they also got up and said goodbye.
Although Huanhuan was a little reluctant, Xia Ruofei was in Hong Kong, and she could see him at dinner. So after Tian Huixin coaxed her for a while, she obediently said goodbye to Xia Ruofei.
After Ma Zhiming and the other two left, only Feng Jing and Xia Ruofei were left in the room.
Feng Jing looked at Xia Ruofei with a smile and asked, "Chairman, do you want to take a rest first, or do you want to listen to my report?"
Xia Ruofei leaned on the sofa and said lazily, "There's nothing to report, right? I'm 100% confident in you. Anyway, you can make the decision! "
Feng Jing couldn't help but stare at Xia Ruofei coquettishly and said, "Hey! You're too incompetent as a boss! You should at least pretend! "
Hearing this, Xia Ruofei sat up straight and said in a serious tone, "Alright then! Director Feng, tell me about your work for the past few days! "
Feng Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she shook her head and said, "You're not pretending at all! Forget it, forget it. I can't be bothered to argue with you. Otherwise, I'll be angered to death sooner or later … "
Xia Ruofei was already on the verge of collapsing. When he heard that, he immediately said with a smile, "That's right! Haven't we always divided the work and cooperated well? You can take care of these specific matters yourself! "
"No problem!" Feng Jing dragged her words helplessly and said, "But let's say this first! I won't be showing my face in public anymore! This time, I'll leave it all to Hengfeng Auction House … "
After the release of the Yuji cream, Feng Jing's popularity on the Internet reached a peak. Now, in Sanshan, many people could recognize her when she walked on the streets. This made Feng Jing very nervous every time she went out. She even had to wear sunglasses and a mask. It was like the treatment of a celebrity.
So this time, before coming to Hong Kong, Feng Jing said that she didn't want to show her face on stage again.
In her words, she was a professional manager, not an artist.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Our Taoyuan Company has to send a representative, right? Just go up and show your face. You don't need to host for a long time. The main characters of the auction are our top quality truffles. The one appearing on stage is also the auctioneer! "
"No! You go up yourself! "Feng Jing's attitude was firm.
"Okay, okay, okay. Then we won't show our faces!" Xia Ruofei said, "Anyway, it's just an auction. After that, we'll take the money and leave! As for taking the opportunity to promote the company and improve the company's image, it doesn't matter anymore … "
Feng Jing was dumbfounded. After a while, she looked at Xia Ruofei and said, "No way … How can you be so irresponsible?"
Xia Ruofei said indifferently, "Aren't I thinking for you? Since you don't want to show your face, I have to follow your advice! Manager Feng, as the boss, I still respect the opinions of my employees … "
"But, you have to go up!" Feng Jing said, "This is a good opportunity! Do you know how many celebrities are coming this time? Our company just happens to be on the high-end route … "
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I can't … I'm not good with words, and I haven't been to a big event before. I get nervous easily. No, no, no. Since you don't want to go up on stage, then forget it. There will be other opportunities in the future …"
Feng Jing came back to her senses. She looked at Xia Ruofei with a smile, then said coquettishly, "Chairman, you're too bad!"
After that, Feng Jing helplessly stomped her feet and said, "Okay, I'll go up on stage, okay?"
"That's right! At the crucial moment, we still have to rely on Manager Feng, right? " Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Last time you said you were useless. Now you know how useful you are, right?"
Feng Jing stared at Xia Ruofei and said, "You only know how to bully me …"
Although Feng Jing said that, she still reported the work of the past few days to Xia Ruofei seriously.
After listening to the report, Xia Ruofei also sighed from the bottom of his heart.
The work was very complicated, and there were many links that needed to be coordinated. Feng Jing brought Liu Qian and another young female in the marketing department to work overtime almost every day until late at night. She was indeed very capable, and there was nothing to say about her sense of responsibility.
Xia Ruofei sincerely said to Feng Jing, "Manager Feng, it's been hard on you! Thank you! "
Feng Jing was stared at by Xia Ruofei, and her face couldn't help but heat up. She avoided Xia Ruofei's gaze and said, "Chairman, every time you tell me about your hard work so seriously, I always have an ominous feeling. Are you going to cheat me again?"
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Is my image in your heart so terrible?"
"Yes!" Feng Jing nodded seriously and said.
Seeing Xia Ruofei's deflated look, Feng Jing couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'm just joking with you!"
"I'm getting such a high salary and dividends, of course I have to do my best." Feng Jing also said seriously, "This is my duty."
"No." Xia Ruofei said, "You've done so much for the company, and I know it in my heart! Manager Feng, as long as the company exists, as long as you don't want to leave, you will always be the general manager of the Taoyuan Company! "
Feng Jing also showed a touched expression. A gentleman would die for his bosom friend, not to mention that she still had some inexplicable feelings for Xia Ruofei.
Feng Jing didn't speak, but the atmosphere in the room became somewhat ambiguous.
In the silence, Feng Jing couldn't take it anymore. She stood up with a blushing face and quickly said, "Chairman, I'll go to Liu Qian's place to go through the process for tomorrow. You should rest for a while!"
After that, she quickly walked to the door.
Xia Ruofei felt a little strange, but he didn't think much about it. He just shouted behind Feng Jing, "You'll attend the banquet with me tonight, don't forget!"
"Got it!" Feng Jing said without turning her head, then opened the door and walked out.
Xia Ruofei put the truffles back into the Ring-Tu space. Only in the Ring-Tu space could they be absolutely fresh. In the outside world, even if the protection measures were in place, it couldn't stop the truffles from slowly deteriorating.
The freezer in the room had a password, and only Xia Ruofei could open it. He just needed to put the truffles in before the auction tomorrow.
Then Xia Ruofei went to take a shower, and then lay down on the soft bed to sleep for a while.
In the evening, Ma Xiong's family invited Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing to a banquet.
Ma Xiong also excitedly cut a small piece of white truffles and asked the hotel's Michelin chef to make a special risotto with thinly sliced white truffles.
In Ma Xiong's words, only the simplest method could reflect the most original taste of the top-grade white truffles.
Before the truffles were auctioned, Xia Ruofei and the others first enjoyed the taste of the best white truffles.
The Ma family seemed to be very fond of truffles. Not only Ma Xiong, but even Ma Zhiming, Tian Huixin, and even Huanhuan showed a very enjoyable expression when eating the risotto with white truffles.
On the other hand, Feng Jing obviously loved the taste of white truffles as she ate them with relish.
Perhaps tonight, Xia Ruofei didn't feel anything about the expensive white truffles. He was even a little unaccustomed to the strange taste.
Xia Ruofei saw that Feng Jing almost swallowed her tongue and secretly felt funny. He decided that after returning to the three mountains, he would pick two smaller truffles for Feng Jing so that she could eat as much as she wanted.
He would treat it as an employee benefit.
After dinner, Xia Ruofei and Ma Zhiming's family of three took a yacht to enjoy the beautiful night view of Victoria Harbor. Of course, this was little Huanhuan's suggestion. She liked to stay with Xia Ruofei. Every time she saw Xia Ruofei, she wanted to stick to him.
When they returned from the night trip, it was almost ten o 'clock in the evening.
Xia Ruofei took a shower and was ready to go to bed.
At this time, pleasant and brisk music sounded from the bedside. Someone was outside ringing the doorbell.
