Report

In the evening.

The reporters squatting outside the Paradise Manor listlessly glanced at the imposing gate. The peddlers pushing the tricycles were shouting their dishes. Even if they were starving, they didn't have much desire to eat.

Not having any news was an endless torment for media people like them.

"Dear friends from the media, I've just received a notice to invite you to the Eastern Suburb Square of the Manor. The banquet has been prepared for you, and there's something important to inform you." Jin Shi strode out of the manor's gate and looked around at the thousands of media people.

"Something important? Could it be that there's news? "

"OMG! Is the Grand Fortune Jewelry going to break the news? "

"They even prepared a banquet? I never thought I'd be able to eat Paradise Manor's food one day. If it's big news, I'll eat my fill today. "

"Hurry up! We must grab a good seat!"

"…"

The thousands of reporters were excited. They cheered up and rushed into the Paradise Manor's gate under the order of dozens of Paradise Manor's security guards.

At the Eastern Suburb Square.

Hundreds of round tables filled the place as waitresses with beautiful faces and extraordinary temperament came with fragrant dishes and drinks. The strong aroma of the dishes aroused the appetite of all the reporters. However, as the reporters took their seats, no one moved their chopsticks. All kinds of cameras and cannons began to be fixed and calibrated, all aimed at the temporary half-meter-high platform at the northernmost end.

Jin Shi stepped on the platform without a microphone in his hand, but his voice was transmitted to the ears of every reporter. "Ladies and gentlemen, our Boss said that you must eat and drink before you listen to the news. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't have the mood to finish your meal after the big news is announced. Also, our Boss also said that waste is shameful, so please cherish every bit of food. Thank you. "

After saying that …

Jin Shi strode away from the platform.

The reporters were dumbfounded. This was the first time they encountered a situation where they were invited to dinner first and then announced important news. However, such an arrangement warmed their hearts. It was obvious that the Grand Fortune Jewelry's Boss knew their current situation very well. He knew that the first thing they would do after getting the news was to write a press release and submit the filming materials, striving to report the news as soon as possible.

"Colleagues, hurry up and eat! Eat and drink before you listen to the news!"

A burly reporter at a table roared, then grabbed his chopsticks and wolfed down the food. Under his lead, the tens of millions of reporters ate the meat and drank the tea. However, no one touched the wine on the table.

Half an hour later …

Hao Lei, followed by three waiters carrying trays, came down to the stage. She was wearing a floral skirt with her long, flowing hair, looking particularly dignified and beautiful. She glanced at the crowd with a microphone in her hand and smilingly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to everyone's presence. I'm Hao Lei, the general manager of Grand Fortune Jewelry. Now I'd like to announce two things. The first is that our Grand Fortune Jewelry has welcomed three waves of distinguished guests, and the zodiac carvings brought by these three waves of distinguished guests are exactly the jade carvings that we're looking for. "

"Three waves?"

All the reporters were excited. One of the reporters at the table closest to Hao Lei asked loudly, "President Hao, can you tell us the identities of those VIPs? And what kind of zodiac jade carvings did they send? "

Hao Lei smiled and said, "Revealing the identity of the honored guest is the second matter. Now, I will show you the zodiac jade carvings they sent over. "

After saying that …

She gestured to the three waiters behind her, and they immediately lifted the yellow silk cloth covering the trays. In a flash, all the cameras were aimed at the three red and lifelike zodiac jade carvings on the trays.

"The three zodiac jade carvings are the Jade Monkey, Jade Rooster, and Jade Rabbit," said Hao Lei with a smile. "Together with the Jade Dragon and Jade Tiger in our hands, we now have a complete set of five zodiac jade carvings. I hope all the reporters and friends can help us advertise and find the remaining seven zodiac jade carvings. "

The flashes kept flashing, and the focus kept hovering on the three jade carvings.

Hao Lei continued, "The second thing I want to announce is that the VIPs of the Jade Monkey and Jade Rooster don't want their identities to be exposed, so we can't tell you who they are. However, 100 million US dollars has been paid to them. As for the VIPs who brought the Jade Rabbit, he's willing to be interviewed by everyone. "

"That's great! Where is he?"

"It's better to have someone willing to be interviewed than no one! Where is he? "

"Who is he?"

"…"

Behind the platform, accompanied by four security guards, Zhang Moyuan came to the stage. He stood in front of Hao Lei and hurriedly nodded to salute her.

"Let me introduce him to everyone. This is Boss Zhang Moyuan from Fukang Province," said Hao Lei with a smile. "He's also the Big Boss of Fukang's Yulong Construction Materials. Now, let us invite Boss Zhang to speak. "

Zhang Moyuan took the microphone and his deep eyes swept the audience below. After a few seconds of silence, a forced smile appeared on his face as he said, "In fact, many people think that I'm a Big Boss with hundreds of millions of assets, so I should be very rich. That's right, I was indeed very rich a few months ago. At the very least, I didn't have to worry about food and drink. I lived in a mansion, drove a luxury car, and had countless rich friends.

"However, it's hard to do business these days, and it's even harder to be a boss. Due to some special unforeseen events, the business of my Yulong Construction Materials Group has shrunk significantly, and there's even a cash flow problem.

"The Jade Rabbit is one of my favorite collectibles. I even fantasized about keeping it as my Zhang Family's heirloom and passing it on to my descendants. However, I had no choice but to take it out when the company was in trouble. I'll bring it to Shanghai and the Paradise Manor.

"Just two hours ago, more than 690 million yuan was transferred to my account, and I've also transferred 190 million yuan to my company's public account. It can be said that Jade Rabbit saved my company, and it was Jade Rabbit who allowed my assets to skyrocket. "

"Although I have regrets in my heart, I'm also satisfied. This satisfaction comes not only from the income of money, but also from the fact that I know that there's not only one kind of zodiac jade carving in this world, but also 11 other kinds. I brought the Jade Rabbit with me in the hope that Grand Fortune Jewelry can find 12 zodiac jade carvings as soon as possible. "

Zhang Moyuan's speech was neither fast nor slow, but at this time, the reporters below were ignited. A collectible Jade Rabbit saved a company with a market value of hundreds of millions of yuan, preventing a tycoon from going bankrupt, and having many friends but no one to help him …

All kinds of key points, all kinds of highlights.

Each and every one of the reporters' faces turned red, and blue veins danced on their foreheads.

Late at night.

At the Shanghai Railway Station, Chen Jianshe dragged his tired body out. He held a folding stool in his hand and carried a worn-out black leather bag on his shoulder, followed by his cousin, Chen Jiawei.

"Brother, we've arrived in Shanghai, but where can we find a buyer?" Chen Jiawei's face was dark, his body was strong, and his voice was gruff.

Chen Jianshe hesitated and said, "The newspaper said that it's the Paradise Manor. How do we know where it is? How about we call the phone number left in the newspaper and ask about the situation? "

"Call!"

Chen Jiawei was a bit uneasy as he had just arrived in a bustling metropolis, so he hurriedly nodded and said.

Chen Jianshe grabbed his old Nokia mobile phone that he had used for five or six years and dialed the phone number in the newspaper. It didn't take long for the call to be connected.

"Hello, I'm Hao Lei. May I ask who you are?"

"Hello, hello. We're here to sell the Jade Ox. The newspaper said that you want to buy it. Is it true?" Chen Jianshe controlled his emotions and said with a face full of expectation.

Hao Lei said, "Jade Ox? May I ask where you are? I'm Hao Lei, the General Manager of Grand Fortune Jewelry. We really want to buy the zodiac jade carvings. "

"We just arrived in Shanghai and just got out of the train station," said Chen Jianshe. "About that … this is our first time coming to Shanghai and we're not familiar with this place, so we don't know where to go."

"Please tell me which train station it is. I'll immediately send someone … no, I'll personally pick you up," said Hao Lei.

"Which train station? Isn't it Shanghai Train Station? "asked Chen Jianshe with a puzzled expression.

Hao Lei was at a loss whether she had to cry or laugh. "There are several train stations in Shanghai, you …"

Forty minutes later.

Hao Lei, along with Jin Shi and the others, hurried to the Shanghai Train Station. After calling them, they finally found Chen Jianshe and Chen Jiawei, who were sitting on a stool and smoking in the square.

"May I ask which one of you is Mr. Chen Jianshe, Chen Jianshe?"

Chen Jianshe hurriedly stood up and looked at the dignified and elegant Hao Lei, as well as the burly and imposing Jin Shi's group. He stammered and said, "I … I'm Chen Jianye. You … you're that Hao … Hao Lei, Manager Hao?"

Hao Lei stretched out her hand and smilingly said, "That's right. I'm Hao Lei, the General Manager of Grand Fortune Jewelry. Welcome to Shanghai. Mr. Chen, the car is in the parking lot. Please come with me. "

"Ah … oh, alright."

Chen Jianshe blushed and shook hands with Hao Lei. He subconsciously rubbed his hands on his clothes and pulled Chen Jiawei to follow Hao Lei's group to the parking lot.

They returned to Paradise Manor.

Hao Lei took the two to the VIP lounge and ordered the waiter to prepare the meal. Then, she smilingly asked, "You two, you said you brought a jade ox. Please take it out! I need to appraise it. If it's a real jade ox, we're willing to buy it for 100 million US dollars. "

100 million US dollars!

Chen Jianshe and Chen Jiawei were instantly excited. After all, such a huge number was simply an astronomical figure for them.

Soon after …

Chen Jianshe took the jade ox out of his worn-out black leather bag and handed it to Hao Lei, saying, "This is it. It's the Chen Family's heirloom. I've been begging my father for a long time, and he finally gave it to me. Manager Hao, you can't deceive us! My son is still waiting for the money to get a wife! My daughter is still waiting for the money to pay for her tuition. If … if you don't want to pay so much money, you can pay less. "
