Everyone was mesmerized by the taste of the peach after they tasted it for the first time.
They placed small pieces of the peach into their mouths and chewed slowly. They were reluctant to swallow it.
Of course, there was a limit to how many peaches they could eat. Everyone looked like they wanted more after they finished eating.
"I finally know why there is only one piece of peach in the banquet tonight!"
"Why?"
"Because after eating it, any other delicacies will be useless! No matter how expensive it is, it will be meaningless! "
"You are right! I will not exchange half of this peach for the Manchu Han Imperial Feast! "
"I don't want to eat anything now! I just want to eat peaches! "
"Mr. Chen! Can you give me some more? Just a little bit will do! "
"Mr. Chen! I'm begging you for peaches … "
.....
At this moment, the attitude of the crowd had changed completely.
In order to get a bite of the peach, those so-called socialites did not even care about their pride. They were begging desperately.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
Chen picked up the microphone and said, "Today's peach is a very, very rare variety! I can't afford another one! "
"This is the ultimate delicacy! I can't believe that it is so rare! "
"Mr. Chen! Can you let me know the next time you get this kind of peach? I am willing to pay a high price for it! "
"I will reserve the next batch of peaches! Money is not a problem! "
"I will reserve it! I can pay the deposit now! "
"Not only can I pay the deposit! I will also pay double the price! "
"I … I … I …"
...
Everyone started to fight to reserve the next batch of peaches for Chen.
"Everyone, calm down! I have decided to plant this kind of peach in Green Vine City. I have even chosen the location! But, there are still some paperwork that needs to be done. It might be a little troublesome. "
Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Mr. Han.
Mr. Han had been in charge of the municipal affairs for twenty years. How could he not understand what Chen was trying to say?
Mr. Han even knew that the location that Chen was talking about was the island in the center of the South Lake. And, Chen had won the deed of the land by gambling!
Although the police had determined that it was a wild animal that killed the people in the colosseum.
But, they had found out everything that happened before the people died.
Han Xiannian had some understanding of it.
At that moment, those who did not know what was going on would think that Chen Xiaobei was doing an advertisement for his peach!
Only the insiders knew that Chen was fighting for the approval of the government for Lake Heart Island.
As long as Han Xiannian nodded his head and allowed Chen to plant peach trees on the island, it would mean that the island belonged to Chen!
Only with official recognition could this matter be considered a done deal.
"Hmm …"
Han Xiannian pondered for a moment and said with a smile, "Now that we are advocating for the development of agriculture, planting peach trees is a very good project. The approval can go through the green channel! However, I hope that the island will only be planted with peach trees in the future! Mr. Chen, do you understand what I mean? "
"Understood! Of course I understand! I can guarantee it! I will not touch any dirty stuff! "Chen nodded immediately.
"That's great! Young man, do your best! Your future is bright! "Han Xiannian nodded, still smiling.
The island was now Chen's private property!
From now on, no one would raise any objections.
"Everyone, you heard it! With Elder Han's support, I can start planting peach trees very soon! The day where you guys can eat peaches is just around the corner! "
Chen grinned and said.
"This is great! Now, we have something to look forward to! "
"When the peach trees bear fruit, I want to buy a lot of them! I want to eat to my heart's content!"
"Mr. Chen! Can I book the whole peach garden? I want to book your peach garden! I will eat until I die! Hahaha … "
...
Everyone was excited again. They were excited when they thought about the delicious peaches that they were going to eat!
"Alright! Everyone! Wipe off your saliva first! Let's talk about eating peaches later! Right now, we have something important to do! Fundraising! "
Chen grinned and stared at Yap with an evil gaze. Yap had been in a miserable state for the whole night.
"Next! Please give your warmest applause to welcome the first donor of today, Young Master Ye Liangchen! "
Chen used a very provocative voice and said, "The louder your applause, the more money Master Yap will donate! If you don't donate enough, you are not giving me face! Am I right? "
"Yes!"
The crowd cheered in unison. Then, there was a round of applause.
Yap felt like thousands of alpacas were running through his heart when he heard Chen.
This was obviously a trap that Chen had dug for him.
However, Yap knew that it was a trap, but he could not reject it. He had no choice but to jump into it.
After all, this was related to his face. It was also related to the faces of all the guests. He had no choice but to jump into it.
Yap gritted his teeth and walked to the stage with painful steps. He took out a cheque and a pen and started to fill in the numbers.
Yap felt like his heart was bleeding when he wrote down the number of fifty million.
"Chen! I will not let you go this easily! I have a hundred ways to take revenge on you! "Yap lowered his voice and said.
"Hehe … I will play with you if you want to!"
Chen smiled and changed the topic, "But, there's one thing that I don't understand. Why do you have to pick on me? I don't even know you before this! "
"Because I like Xiaoyao! And you are her boyfriend! That's why I'm picking on you! "Yap said coldly.
* Blarrgghh … *
Chen almost spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard Yap.
The relationship between him and Xiaoyao was just an act!
Because of this, Yap treated him as his enemy.
Chen felt that he had been wronged.
But, he thought that Yap's character was too bad. He could not let him hurt Xiaoyao.
Chen did not explain himself. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "If that's the case, bring it on! Don't you cry when I slap your face! "
"Hmph! You are so confident! I, Yap, like to beat up those who think that they are the best! You will know who will cry and who will laugh soon! "Yap humphed and walked down the stage.
After that, the donation session continued in an orderly manner.
The Murong Family donated one hundred and fifty million in Xiaoyao's name. This was Murong Tian's plan. It was the biggest donation that night.
The Lan Family and the Wu Family donated fifty million each.
The other guests donated around one hundred million.
The total amount of donations was more than four hundred million!
