A person's name was like a tree's shadow. One of Hua Xia's Seven Addicts, Music Addict. Even if most people wished to meet her, they would never have the chance to hear her perform. However, Music Addict was famous and had many followers. If Music Addict were to get angry, her fans would definitely tear those who dared to offend her into pieces.
Furthermore, Music Addict had been famous for many years. How many resources and connections did she have? These were all factors that everyone had to consider.
Li Mingliang was the person in charge of 14K in Huacheng. He was famous for his ferocious fighting style. Even someone like Li Mingliang came up with the idea of spending money to get rid of the problem. This proved that Music Addict was indeed very powerful.
"One million!" Lan Shanggu shouted, "Mister Li Mingliang is willing to pay one million to appease Music Addict. I can feel Mister Li Mingliang's sincerity. However, who is Music Addict? Pure as ice and clean as jade, untainted by worldly affairs. She pursues the pinnacle of music all her life. Mister Li Mingliang, do you really think it's appropriate to use something as dirty as money to make a deal with Music Addict? "
Li Mingliang panicked. Everyone's gaze was focused on him. It was as if he had really used money to insult Music Addict. Li Mingliang wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked at Lan Shanggu with a flattering smile, "Brother Lan — Shanggu, what do you think is appropriate? You know that I haven't studied much and always like to fight and kill. Can you help me come up with an idea? How can I redeem my son Li Xiang? Is five million enough? "
Lan Shanggu strode forward and patted Li Mingliang's shoulder, "Brother Li, since we're brothers, how can I not help you when you're in trouble? To be honest, it's not very elegant to talk about money with Music Addict. Who is Music Addict? Does she need your three to five million? "
"Then what should we do?" Li Mingliang grabbed Lan Shanggu's arm and asked.
"I have an idea. Not only can it appease Mr. Le Chi's anger, but it can also be done in an elegant and humorous way. It will also become a good story. Brother Li will become a distinguished gentleman that people will talk about in the future —"
"What idea? Brother, what idea? Quick, teach me — "
"It's impossible for Mr. Le Chi to accept money. There are so many rumors about Mr. Le Chi. Have you heard of anyone paying her? "Lan Shangu looked at Li Mingliang and asked.
Li Mingliang shook his head and said, "No."
"Right. Aren't you going to incur the wrath of the masses by giving money to them? "Lan Shanlai said with a smile. Seeing that Li Mingliang was about to panic again, Lan Shanggu patted the back of his hand to calm him down and said, "Mr. Le Chi has come from afar, shouldn't we, as the hosts of the City of Flowers, show our hospitality?"
"What does Brother Valley mean?"
"If Brother Li gives Mr. Le Chi a piece of jade, a painting, a zither, and a flute — do you think this bad thing will become a good thing? Did dirty things become elegant things? In the future, when people talk about Mr. Le Chi, they will naturally mention that Mr. Le Chi was attacked by a few drunken youths in the City of Flowers. The youths' father felt very guilty and gave him a zither as an apology — yes, it's the zither that Mr. Le Chi is playing with now. Brother Li, think about it. If people think of you when they talk about Mr. Le Chi, they will think of you when they talk about you and the zither that Mr. Le Chi is using. How big of a face do you have to give? "
Li Mingliang's face was flushed and he looked very excited. He grabbed Lan Shanlai's arm tightly and said, "Thank you, Brother Valley, thank you, Brother Valley — this is a good idea. Where can I buy a zither? I'll go buy it now, I'll go buy it now — "
Lan Shanggu glanced at the old butler Fang Hao. Fang Hao immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Li, our Blue Mountain Club has a treasure house. It happens to have a good zither called Que Bai. Although it's not as famous as Green Damask and Jiao Wei. It's still a rare treasure — "
"Que Bai. That's it. I'll take it. "Li Mingliang said heroically.
"Mr. Li, this Que Bai is boss's collection. I'm afraid boss won't be willing to part with it —"
Li Mingliang looked at Lan Shanlai with a pleading expression and said, "Brother Valley, please help me to the end. Can you help me settle this matter? Just think of it as me owing you a favor. "
Lan Shanggu hesitated for a while and sighed, "Since Brother Li has spoken, I can't refuse your request. This Que Bai is indeed part of my collection. I bought it back for ten million, and also found a top-notch zither master to maintain it. How about this, I'll part with it for twelve million, and let it become a wonderful story between Brother Li and Mr. Le Chi. "
When Li Mingliang heard 'twelve million', his expression stiffened slightly. But when he heard that he could make a legend with Mr. Le Chi with just twelve million, Li Mingliang's eyes lit up once again.
That was one of Hua Xia's Seven Fanatics, Le Chi. Not everyone had the chance to gift a zither to Le Chi. He, Li Mingliang, was a famous general in the history of music. This was something that no amount of advertising money could buy —
"I'm taking this Que Bai. Don't fight with me. "Li Mingliang shouted. "Brother Valley, I'll write you a check right now."
Fang Hao walked over and said, "Mr. Li, you can go and inspect the goods first. You can write a check afterward."
Li Mingliang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and inspect the goods first. What about my son?"
Lan Shanggu smiled and waved his hand, "Brother Li, once Mr. Le Chi calms down, your son will naturally appear in front of you —"
"Good. Good. Thank you, Brother Valley. "Li Mingliang clasped his hands and turned to follow the old butler to the treasury.
"Um — Brother Lan, I also want to buy a gift for Mr. Le Chi. Can you recommend something for me?"
"Sister Li, it's good that you have such thoughts. I'm just afraid that Mr. Le Chi won't like ordinary items — — unusual items are too expensive."
"Of course it's expensive." The woman in luxurious clothing sneered. "That Li Mingliang is just a hooligan. If he can give Mr. Le Chi a 12 million Que Bai, how can our Zhu family not give something decent to Mr. Le Chi? Brother Lan, don't think about saving money for our Zhu family. You have to recommend me a gift that's better than Li Mingliang's Que Bai. You have to make others mention my gift when they mention Mr. Le Chi — — "
"Of course we have to mention Sister Li Mi who gave Mr. Le Chi a gift, right?" Lan Shanggu laughed loudly.
Li Mi's expression was a bit shy. She said, "I've heard Mr. Le Chi's performance before. That song really belongs in the heavens and stinks on the earth. I've always thought that if I had the chance to meet her, how great would that be? Now that there's such a chance, our Zhu family naturally won't fall behind. "
Lan Shanggu nodded, thought seriously, then said, "Mr. Le Chi likes flowers. Every time he performs, he would place all kinds of flowers at his place of residence. I have a 'Peony Painting' in my treasury. It was painted by a famous Tang Dynasty master. How about Sister Li take a look and see if you're interested?"
"That's great." Li Mi nodded happily. "Valley, I owe you a favor today."
"Sister Li, you're too kind."
"Brother Valley, can you recommend me a gift as well?"
"Brother Lan, where's your treasury? Can I go in and pick a couple of gifts? "
"Nephew — — Nephew Valley, you have to help me. My grandson is disobedient and offended Mr. Le Chi. I have to show my sincerity to Mr. Le Chi on his behalf."
"— — Did my son offend Mr. Le Chi? What? No, this bastard, useless coward — "
Lan Shanggu pushed all of them to the treasury of the Blue Mountain Club and let them choose their gifts. As long as they picked one and mentioned his name, they would get a 10% discount.
These people were all grateful. They all wanted to have an intimate encounter with their idol. Even if it was just a name, it would be good.
Lin Zheng, a lawyer from the Tiansheng Law Firm, coldly watched this scene unfold. After Lan Shanggu sent away the last "pitiful helper," Lin Zheng carried his briefcase and walked over. He said sarcastically, "Young Master Lan, you're good. You used Le Chi's name as a tiger's skin. No one dared to argue with you about beating people up. You even tricked them into buying your junk that won't sell for ten thousand years. You established your reputation and made money. I have to say, this is really amazing. "
Lan Shanggu laughed and looked at Lin Zheng. He said, "After being with smart people for so long, I naturally have to learn to be smarter. In the past, I would never have done such a shameless thing. Later on, I found out that my friend not only did it, but it was also very likable. So, I secretly remembered his routine and wanted to experiment it on the spot when I had the chance. Today, I tried it out and found that the effect was really not bad. Mister, do you want me to recommend a gift for you? "
"No need." Lin Zheng rejected him firmly. "They were fooled by you. I, Lin Zheng, wouldn't do such a stupid thing. I've already stated my purpose of coming here. I want to see my client and ensure his personal safety. "
"I like dealing with smart people." Lan Shanggu nodded. He said, "Who did you say you wanted to see?"
"Chen Guojing." Lin Zheng said. "Chen Guojing, the son of the big boss of Tiandu Real Estate."
"Oh, so it's him." Lan Shanggu thought seriously and said, "You might not be able to ensure his personal safety."
"What do you mean?"
"Because I've already ensured that his personal safety is very dangerous." Lan Shanggu said with a smile.
