Chapter 59 Such an expensive gift is easy to target
Wu Zicheng opened the gift box and revealed the gift inside.
"Oh! A jade Guanyin pendant. The quality of the jade seems pretty good. Let me take a look..."
Wu Zicheng picked up the Jade Guanyin and looked at it closely.
"I knew it was real once I got it. The water level should be icy, and the color should be bright green...
Wow! I won the grand prize! I don't know which friend gave it to me, would you mind telling me the name? "
Wu Zicheng was surprised. When they held birthday parties, the gifts they received every year were not very cheap. Except for a few close friends, the maximum price of the gifts was 100,000 yuan.
However, based on his own experience, Wu Zicheng estimated that the value of this icy green jade Guanyin pendant would be at least 500,000.
Who could give him such a generous gift?
First of all, I would rule out a few enemies. The gift they gave him was worth more than 100,000 yuan, and I don't know how many times they would have whispered in his ear. How could a pendant worth 500,000 yuan go unnoticed?
Secondly, he excluded some familiar faces that were unfamiliar to him but were present at every party. He knew what gifts these people could give him, and they would not exceed 50,000 yuan at most.
Then, let's exclude those people from small families who came to the party for free. Their monthly pocket money doesn't reach one million, and they won't spend half a million to buy him a gift. That's simply insane.
Finally, Wu Zicheng set his sights on Yun Zijin and Su Mengyao.
Su Mengyao is a familiar face but doesn't come to every party. She is the eldest daughter of the Su family, one of the eight small families. She is arrogant and willful, and she is rich.
Yun Zijin, who can make Sheng Yang call her sister, is not simple. Although her financial situation is unclear, the watch on her wrist is estimated to be worth at least one million.
These two sisters are the most likely ones.
Sheng Yang also had the same idea as Wu Zicheng.
Sheng Yang approached Yun Zijin and said, "Sister Yun, this isn't... a gift from you, is it?"
Old Wu, what kind of incredible luck does he have to have Sister Yun give him such an expensive gift?
He felt that 100,000 yuan was a bargain. This ice-type Yang-green jade Guanyin pendant was the best deal in the market.
"I didn't return to Xingyu Mansion and asked my bodyguard to pick it up. It shouldn't be... out of line, right?"
This was Yun Zijin's first time attending a rich second-generation birthday party, and also her first time giving a gift to a rich second-generation. At that time, she wanted to pick something that was not cheap but not expensive either.
Five hundred thousand is relatively within her price range, and Lingqi is good at choosing.
Moreover, men wear Guanyin, and women wear Buddha; there shouldn't be anything wrong with that.
"Sister Yun, you've let this kid get a great deal. He has a birthday every year and holds a party every year.
They give out hundreds of thousands of dollars every time. We live on pocket money, so how can we exploit these people? One hundred thousand is the most!
Sister Yun, don't give me such expensive gifts next time. It's easy for people to target me!"
Knowing that Sister Yun is generous, everyone who has a birthday today or an anniversary tomorrow comes to send Sister Yun an invitation letter.
I've received the invitation, so I'll at least get a gift even if I don't go.
They have caught the wool.
"Well...I don't live on pocket money."
She lives on collecting rent.
Yun Zijin's words completely broke Sheng Yang's defense.
Does she know what a huge hurt this is to a 1.8-meter-tall, rich second generation who has never earned a penny with her own hands?
T﹏TSu
Mengyao and Sheng Yang felt the same at this moment.
She also lives on pocket money.
Now, looking at the gifts Yun Zijin gave and the gifts they gave, the difference between them and Yun Zijin is reflected.
They would feel bad about spending five hundred thousand on a gift, but Yun Zijin thought it was a normal gift-giving standard.
Wu Zicheng was still looking for the person who had sent the Jade Guanyin. To avoid being exposed, Yun Zijin asked Sheng Yang to block Wu Zicheng's sight.
After a long time without anyone claiming the body, Wu Zicheng finally had to give up. However, he also noticed Sheng Yang and Yun Zijin's little tricks, but he did not expose them.
He couldn't bring Yun Zijin over with him tied up to claim her.
After opening the gifts, tonight's birthday party officially entered carnival mode.
Wu Zicheng turned on the audio system that had been installed at great expense in the villa, turned the volume up to the maximum, and the specially invited lighting engineer began to work. The birthday party instantly turned into a disco scene.
Yun Zijin originally wanted to return to the Macaron rest area but was pulled onto the dance floor by Su Mengyao.
Su Mengyao had forgotten her intention to attend today's birthday party and only wanted to be friends with Yun Zijin.
Sheng Yang looked at the space around him, his face full of question marks.
When did these two become so familiar with each other? He was the extra one, wasn't he?
"Hey, what's wrong with our Second Master Sheng? He doesn't look very happy."
Wu Zicheng came to Sheng Yang with a glass of champagne without knowing when.
Perhaps only he could turn his birthday party into a disco.
"Do you think girls' friendship comes too fast?"
Sister Yun clearly came here with him, but she ultimately made things difficult for Su Mengyao.
Wu Zicheng had no way of answering Sheng Yang's question, as he was also a man.
Yun Zijin didn't know that he had a good relationship with Su Mengyao, which caused Sheng Yang to feel in crisis.
"By the way, how's your bar going? First of all, I have to state that it's not that I don't support you, but you also know that I dare not offend your brother!"
Sheng Hao called them personally and forbade them from lending money to Sheng Yang to open a bar.
He called them and their parents. If anyone disobeyed, they would forget about getting pocket money.
Since Sheng Hao had spoken, the parents agreed and gave them detailed instructions when they got home.
"Humph! I have already found new investors. You are afraid of my brother, but my sister Yun is not."
Sister Yun was able to snatch the land from Lu Yunque and others, so, of course, she would not be afraid of offending her brother.
"You mean you asked Yun Zijin to invest in you? How much can she invest in you?"
"3 million, this is just the initial investment. If I succeed, Sister Yun will make additional investments!"
Sheng Yang is very confident in his bar.
"Three million? That sounds good! Although I can't lend you the money, I will come to support your bar
when it opens! I'll hold a carnival party in your bar, which will liven up the place."
Apart from anything else, he is professional when it comes to clubbing.
"Okay, you pay for the drinks."
It can't be free. Even brothers who are not related by blood have to settle accounts!
Wu Zicheng rolled his eyes at Sheng Yang. Listen to what he said. Is he the kind of person who likes to drink overlord wine?
"I know, I know. Why are you so stingy now?"
Wu Zicheng couldn't understand when Sheng Yang became like this.
It's just a little money for drinks; what else can he lack?
"It costs money to run a bar. I can't even get back the cost after inviting you to drink. Isn't this a loss? You can't run a business at a loss. I still hope to make money from the bar and become a rich second-generation who can be financially independent without pocket money."
What Sheng Yang said was natural, and Wu Zicheng even felt it made sense.
