super rich

Under the clear sky and clear sky, Chen Mingyuan's thoughts were turbulent.

A sub-deputy officer under the age of 30, backed by a rich and famous family, and the conversation just now, it can be seen that Kou Beiyan is very capable. Considering that he is currently holding a job in a certain city in the northwest, it is not difficult to guess, He wanted to use General Kou's strong prestige in the northwest region to create the most favorable conditions for his career development. Now it seems that Mayor Kou's long-term goal should be the pinnacle of power in Forty-Nine City.

Of course, there are many examples of children from aristocratic families reaching the pinnacle of the political arena. If this is the case alone, Chen Mingyuan would at most pay attention to this person, but hearing Mu Tianyu's muttering just now, for some reason, he felt a little restless...

Seeing that Mu Tianyu had slipped his tongue, Ye Qingxue quickly poked him with her elbow. It was about the gossip about the core children of the two major families, and she was not someone who could chew the tongue casually, but she caught a glimpse of Chen Mingyuan's seriousness from the corner of her eye. Fang's heart can't help but drop.

Suddenly, her cell phone rang, suppressed her thoughts, picked it up and listened to a few words, Liu Mei immediately stood upright, and said in surprise: "Are you sure? Okay! I see..."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Qingxue hurriedly said to Chen Mingyuan: "It's not good, something happened to Dongjiang!"

Chen Mingyuan raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong?"

Ye Qingxue looked anxious, and said in a low voice: "Just now I got news that the China Securities Regulatory Commission has issued a resolution on the Wengang Company's listing plan, saying that it is strictly forbidden for state-owned enterprises to speculate on stocks during the listing."

Chen Mingyuan nodded, as if he had expected it.

It seems that this should be Ji Mingtang's last straw. Seeing that Wengang cannot be prevented from going public, he can only seek support from the capital, hoping to use the Securities Regulatory Commission to frustrate those chaebols who are fueling the flames. Come out and he will be safe and sound.

Presumably, Ji Mingtang was forced to use this trick because he had no way out. Although it could solve the immediate crisis, it cut off the profit opportunities of those speculators. The group is broken!

Ye Qingxue was as careful as dust, and on the way when she suddenly remembered, he had sworn to promise her, and after a little thought, she guessed that he had already heard the news!

Although the interference of the China Securities Regulatory Commission is a disaster for those speculators, it is good news for Ye Qingxue. At least Ye Wanshun has no chance to gamble again.

However, from this heavy news, Ye Qingxue sensed that the game in Dongjiang Province has almost reached a feverish stage. Although it seems confusing to outsiders, it is already thrilling inside, but I don’t know if Ning Lizhong still has an absolute chance of winning. ?

"Wait a little longer, there should be results soon."

Chen Mingyuan smiled calmly: "You should go and call home first, the business opportunity has been ruined. At this time, your father is probably going into a rage."

Ye Qingxue nodded slightly, only hoping that this turmoil would subside as soon as possible.

With the China Securities Regulatory Commission's "Decision on Strictly Prohibiting State-Owned Enterprises from Speculating Stocks in the Listing", suspense once again appeared in Wengang's listing plan, which was almost conclusive, especially in the provincial and municipal standing committees. Faintly knowing the inside story behind Wengang Company, everyone is nervously watching the development of the situation in the provincial capital, because the final outcome of Wengang Company is likely to determine the change of power at the top of Dongjiang Province.

Ning Lizhong's forbearance and aggressiveness, and Ji Mingtang's counterattack from the corner became the highlight of this power confrontation!

What the final result will be, Chen Mingyuan can't be sure. In the afternoon, he will occasionally receive a few calls, and basically hang up after a few casual promises. When the lights are on, he goes back to his room to rest and prepare, and then talks to Ye Qingxue. Under the leadership of the entourage, go to the main hall of the manor.

There are many relatives and old friends in the Mu family, but those who can enter this house to participate in the family banquet are all immediate family members and a few close friends. took most of the limelight.

When Chen Mingyuan and Ye Qingxue arrived, the main hall was full of excitement. There were nearly ten banquet tables set up from inside to outside. Mu Lunyin and Hou Nanshu were busy greeting the guests, but they didn't see Mu Tianyu Waiting for someone, presumably they should be serving the old lady in the back.

Mu Lunyin was very busy and had no time to exchange pleasantries, so someone arranged the two of them at the outermost table.

This is not intentional to neglect the two of them, but in terms of status and status, both of them are a bit shallow compared to the powerful bigwigs present. Not only will the two of them feel uncomfortable, but it will also easily cause criticism from other guests. To put it bluntly, it is breaking the rules!

This is a mistake that must never be made for a noble family like the Mu family with a history of hundreds of years!

Chen Mingyuan didn't care. He didn't want to get involved in too many relationships. He sat on the outside in a low-key manner, but he was happy to have a leisurely time. He just waited for the cutscene to be over before leaving quickly.

Most of the guests present here know the basics and are busy taking the opportunity to get acquainted with each other, but few people pay attention to Chen Mingyuan. Occasionally, some people look at him and see that he is sitting in the outermost position, thinking that he is a junior sent by some small sect. I didn't take it to heart.

In contrast, Kou Beiyan, who is also young, is an anomaly. With his elegant and decent smile, his well-founded manners, coupled with his outstanding status, he almost immediately became the focus of the audience.

But as Mu Tianyu said, in this kind of occasion, it is inevitable to meet some acquaintances. When Chen Mingyuan sipped his tea, he patted his shoulder with one hand. A smile appeared in front of my eyes.

As a direct member of the Mu family, it is normal for Shang Wenbin to come here to celebrate his birthday, and he greeted Ye Qingxue, sat next to him, and said with a smile: "I heard that you are coming too, and I wanted to talk to you, Qingxue." It's snowing, but there are some things that were delayed during the day, so it finally came in time."

He pointed to a place not far in front, and said, "I came with Political Commissar He."

Chen Mingyuan followed the trend and saw Political Commissar He of the Dongjiang Provincial Military Region. At his table were all officers with dazzling epaulets. A member of the Standing Committee of the Jinling Municipal Party Committee and Commander Xia of the Garrison District who had met once.

Xia Ling also saw him and nodded with a smile.

Chen Mingyuan returned the gift with a smile, and said with emotion: "It's really a gathering of stars!"

Shang Wenbin shook his head and sighed: "The old lady of the Mu family actually doesn't like extravagance, but you also know the recent situation. The meaning of this birthday banquet is a bit unusual."

Chen Mingyuan understood that coming to celebrate his birthday by himself was a signal that the Chen and Mu families were about to cooperate, and the dignitaries in the hall probably had a similar purpose. The political group behind them is tantamount to announcing the close relationship with the Mu family to the outside world. In the political changes in the near future, they are bound to form a group to advance and retreat together!

It seems that the Mu family has a big plan in this party congress!

At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside. Mu Lunyin glanced outside, and immediately greeted him with a smile, and said enthusiastically: "Secretary Yue is here, it really makes the banquet flourish!"

The next moment, Yue Zhongyuan stepped in, dressed in a well-made suit, looking dignified, shook hands with Mu Lunyin, and said with a smile: "The old lady's [-]th birthday is a big celebration. You have to come here in person.”

Mu Lunyin was even more delighted, said a few words of courtesy, and personally invited Yue Zhongyuan to the first place.

There is no doubt that Yue Zhongyuan is unique among the guests present in terms of status and status. You must know that not long ago, Yue Zhongyuan was promoted to the deputy secretary of the Jianghuai Provincial Party Committee. It is said that in the next general election, there are still many The big ones may jump to the throne of the provincial party committee secretary, and occupy a large number of places in the new political bureau!

Such a popular political giant, the reason why he came to celebrate his birthday in person this time must be to reach a tacit understanding of cooperation with the Mu family. With the help of the powerful energy of the Mu family in the capital and Jianghuai Province, he can be sure of his superior position!

After all, his father-in-law, Mr. Jia passed away at the end of last year, which left the Jia family in a slump. During this change of office, it will definitely be difficult to give support, and it is undoubtedly a good choice to win over the Mu family.

As for the Mu family, they are definitely willing to let Yue Zhongyuan rule Jianghuai Province in the next five years, so as to protect the family's interests in Jianghuai Province forever!

It can be seen from this that a birthday banquet, unexpectedly mixed with many political interests, will also have an incalculable impact on the future political direction of Huaxia Kingdom!

Yue Zhongyuan strolled in, smiling and greeting guests from all walks of life from time to time, his eyes turned to the corner inadvertently, saw Chen Mingyuan, after a slight start, he nodded with a kind smile.

Chen Mingyuan also nodded with a smile, perhaps because of the past friendship between this person and his parents, he had some personal kindness towards Yue Zhongyuan.

However, although he clicked casually on this side, he was inevitably caught by some people. These are smart people with sharp ears and eyes, and careful thoughts. Seeing Yue Zhongyuan treat a junior differently, compared to the usual politeness, The smile was a little more sincere and close, and he immediately realized that he might have misread just now, so he began to inquire about Chen Mingyuan's origin in private, and some of them simply took the initiative to come down and talk through the monk Wenbin. In the gap, they got close to Chen Mingyuan.

Chen Mingyuan was naturally aware of their small thoughts, although he was impatient, he still said a few polite words.

When these people learned that he was the eldest son and grandson of the Chen family in Zhonghai, they all smacked their tongues inwardly, not to mention the deep relationship between the Chen family and the highest chief, this kid is only in his early twenties, and he has already sat in the position of the real-time deputy. Everyone knows that he is the successor of the direct line that the Chen family and even the Zhong Hai faction are focusing on cultivating. He is a political talent who is almost the same as Kou Beiyan.

But they didn't have a chance to make up for it for the time being. As Mu Lunyin walked to the center and made a gesture of pressing with both hands, everyone had to sit back to their seats first.

"I'll go back first, if this continues, I will have to be your foil."

Shang Wenbin kept smiling wryly, stood up, and asked hesitantly, "When will I go back?"

Chen Mingyuan said with a smile: "Maybe a few days later, Secretary Ning approved me a few days of leave, and it happened that I haven't been home for a long time, so I went to Zhonghai by the way."

Shang Wenbin nodded, muttered 'Yeah', and returned to his position.

Presumably, he also knew that Qiantang was a place of right and wrong at this time, and it would be good for Chen Mingyuan to temporarily stay out of it.

At this time, the door behind the main hall was opened, and a group of people came out. The old lady at the head, supported by Mu Tianyu and Mu Jiayin, staggered towards the main seat on crutches. Following Dong Zhenying, Mu Tianran, Mu Tianfeng, and a middle-aged man who is [-]% similar to Mu Lunyin, he struts forward exuding a kind of majesty and calmness, with shiny and neat hair, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and has the demeanor of a scholar No need to guess, this person is the second son of the Mu family, Mu Dingyin, governor of Lingnan!

Mu Lunyin hurried forward, took over the duties of the third sister, and carefully helped the old mother to sit in the main seat.

As rumored, the old lady of the Mu family is extremely inconvenient to move around. Her hair has already turned gray and there are many age spots on her face, but her spirit is quite hale and hearty. She looked around and said with a pleasant smile: "Everyone Sit down, order as you please today, and thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedule to support this show, the dog is ignorant, and the banquet is so big, my old woman is going to go bankrupt."

The guests present laughed. Although the standard of the birthday banquet was high, the old lady of the Mu family had issued a message early in the morning that gift money was not allowed, and the money for the wine had to be paid for by herself. small money.

After the master of ceremonies said a few birthday blessings, the banquet began. In fact, there were still many ceremonies, but seeing the old mother frowning, Mu Lunyin hurriedly interrupted the ceremony.

During the banquet, the guests came forward to congratulate the old lady on her birthday one by one, and presented the gifts by the way. Although it was expressly forbidden to give gifts, the gifts must not be sloppy, so all kinds of rare treasures were presented in turn. It's a fair.

However, the Mu family is respected and prominent, and they have never seen any rare treasures, and the old lady of the Mu family also seems to be lacking in interest, mostly just expressing their thanks in a polite manner.

"My father has been busy with official business recently, and he really has no skills to spare. As a last resort, I can only celebrate his birthday on his behalf. Please don't blame him."

Kou Beiyan's gentle and elegant conversation won the favor of many people, and the old lady of the Mu family even said it was okay with a peaceful face.

Immediately, Kou Beiyan held up the exquisite box with both hands, and said with a smile: "Our family is from the army. It took a lot of thinking to choose gifts these days, and finally I simply brought an ancient artifact that my grandfather cherished during his lifetime. I hope you Old Xiaona."

The old lady of the Mu family picked up the box. The box was made of high-quality red sandalwood. The surface was simply carved with a few knives, and it looked simple and elegant. When she opened the rosewood box, there was a jade tiger charm lying on the yellow silk satin inside. .

"Is this the seal of the Marquis of Feng?"

The old lady of the Mu family looked at it for a while, raised her head, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, but such a rare treasure is still treasured by Mr. Kou during his lifetime. I really can't bear it."

"It's our family's intention to make the best use of everything. There is nothing precious or not. If Grandpa Quanxia knows that this seal of the Marquis has been passed on to the old lady, he will definitely be happy."

Kou Beiyan's words were just right, the old lady of the Mu family refused, but finally, under the persuasion of her children and grandchildren, she had to accept it, and she looked at Kou Beiyan with satisfaction.

As the saying goes, the tiger talisman is given to the general, and the Mu family is trying their best to expand their influence in the military. Kou Beiyan's gift is undoubtedly very flattering.

When it was Chen Mingyuan's turn, the old lady of the Mu family squinted at him for a long time, and said slowly, "Are you the child of the Chen family?"

Chen Mingyuan saluted solemnly.

The old lady smiled meaningfully: "I have heard about you a long time ago, let alone, our family has a very close relationship with you."

Chen Mingyuan looked around at the other members of the Mu family. Mu Jiayin was smiling, Mu Tianyu was winking, Mu Tianran's face was slightly flushed, and she nodded shyly. Mu Dingyin and Dong Zhenying were smiling. Expressionless.

Chen Mingyuan knew it would be useless to talk too much, so he simply presented the congratulatory gift directly. The old lady of the Mu family took a look, but it was a red rope Jade Guanyin and a yellowed "Great Compassion Heart Dharani Sutra".

These two things were prepared by the family early in the morning, and someone was sent to Qiantang to hand them over to Chen Mingyuan.

Chen Mingyuan said calmly: "My grandfather knows that you have always believed in Buddhism, so he specially asked me to bring this object, and it is right to express his heart."

The old lady of the Mu family caressed the jade statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and slowly smiled, and said softly: "Your family really has a heart, thank you to your grandfather for me."

Seeing this, Mu Jiayin and the others were slightly moved.

The old man of the Mu family died in an accident during the Great Revolution, and the old lady was so sad that she almost couldn't make it through. Later, she ran into an old nun who said bluntly that the old lady had a destiny with Guanyin. After listening to her Dharma for half a year, the old lady gradually became peaceful. No more hopeless thoughts, since then, I have been fasting and nourishing my heart, chanting scriptures and Buddha every day.

Seeing the friendly faces of the Mu family, Chen Mingyuan knew that the preliminary intention of this cooperation was successfully achieved.

The old lady took a deep look at Chen Mingyuan again, as if she wanted to say something, suddenly Shang Wenbin who was sitting below stood up, holding the mobile phone that had not been hung up, and walked over quickly, ignoring everyone's surprised eyes, Quickly whispered a few words in the old lady's ear.

Not knowing what to say, the old lady of the Mu family frowned, waved her hand slowly and said, "Hurry back immediately, don't lose your sense of proportion!"

Shang Wenbin hastily agreed, and left in a hurry without saying goodbye to a few people. He didn't know what happened to make a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee lose his composure.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but Chen Mingyuan looked as usual, and a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

The old lady sighed leisurely, and whispered softly: "It seems that Dongjiang will not be peaceful tonight..."
