Chapter 484 Inexplicable Shock

Kang Cheng quickly recovered his mood and quickly caught up with Jin Xinyan and the two girls.

While shopping in the mall for the next period of time, Kang Cheng continued to make witty remarks, and he could make Huang Xiaolu giggle from time to time. Even Jin Xinyan, who was originally in a depressed mood, slowly felt relieved. A lot.

But to say that she was attracted to Kang Cheng, it was definitely not true.

Although she is young, not very involved in affairs, and has little love experience, she is an eloquent social expert like Kang Cheng who can make girls happy. There is no doubt that she has a good rapport with women. , coupled with his impressive family background and handsome appearance, he is obviously the template for Aquaman.

An outstanding man like Kang Cheng would be good if they were just friends.

After shopping in the mall for more than two hours, the two women were mainly shopping. Kang Cheng acted as a consultant and gave the two women advice. It must be said that he was very knowledgeable about women's clothing matching and cosmetics. They are all very insightful. More importantly, he was very patient and accompanied the two women in and out of various shops throughout the whole process without any sign of being impatient or tired.

In contrast, Xu Zhangbao obviously didn't have much patience. He only lasted for more than half an hour, then excused himself to go to the toilet, and then didn't show up again.

When Huang Xiaolu thought of him, it was already an hour later. When she called him, he said that a friend was looking for him temporarily and left first. Huang Xiaolu complained for a while.

After the three of them came out of the mall, Kang Cheng enthusiastically invited them to have supper.

I ate the best bird's nest porridge in a health porridge shop that is not open to the public.

The place is in a building near the lakeside. This building has a history of nearly a hundred years and can be regarded as an ancient building. It has only been reinforced and renovated in the later period. From the appearance, you can still see its Some historical outlines.

Only eight floors, this health porridge shop is on the highest floor, with half a rooftop above. Visitors can overlook the beautiful scenery around East Lake from the rooftop.

This kind of place implements a premium membership system, and most people don't even know that there is such a porridge shop here.

Most people would not come here to drink porridge when they are so free.

People who can come here to drink porridge are generally people who are rich and have health needs, or people who are arty and show off, and some who just need to be high-class and social.

Kang Cheng brought them here to drink porridge this time mainly to show off.

According to him, this porridge shop has been open for five or six years. It implements a strict membership system and strictly limits the number of members. Only 100 membership cards are issued to the outside world. It is already fully occupied and basically cannot accept any more members.

Each member is generally only allowed to bring a maximum of two people when he comes to spend money.

Therefore, basically every time I come here to drink porridge, there are not too many people.

The overall environment is very comfortable and quiet.

Jin Xinyan can be considered a rich second generation, and she is also a native of Xiuzhou, but she really didn't know about this porridge shop before, let alone been there. This time I gained a lot of experience.

The business area of ​​this porridge shop is actually quite large. There are ten rectangular log tables on the eighth floor, five in a row, a total of two rows. Each table can seat at least four people, and an additional table The stool can seat five people.

In addition, there is a long log board next to the window as a simple dining table, which can accommodate more than a dozen people without any problem.

The rooftop above also has a similar long dining table, plus five rectangular log tables.

Therefore, there is no problem for this porridge shop to accept nearly a hundred customers at one time.

But in fact when they came over, they saw only a few guests on the eighth floor, and only two tables of five or six guests on the rooftop.

This kind of reception rate is undoubtedly very comfortable for the guests, and it is also very relaxing for the migrant workers working here. But it's obviously not good for the owner of this store. After all, fewer customers means less money earned.

Huang Xiaolu asked this question out of curiosity and gave Kang Cheng a good compliment, who wanted to show off.

Kang Cheng explained with a smile: "No one does unprofitable business in the world. The boss here is very smart. Every membership card is given out, and he doesn't charge any membership fees, but These memberships must meet certain recharge and consumption conditions before they can continue to have memberships. Otherwise, the memberships will be withdrawn and transferred to other reserve guests who need memberships.”

"What kind of recharge and consumption conditions are required?" Huang Xiaolu asked cooperatively.

Kang Cheng smiled slightly and said: "If you want to keep the membership of this porridge shop, you must always have a balance of more than 200,000 yuan in your membership card, or you must spend a minimum of 20,000 yuan every month. Otherwise, your membership will be cancelled.”

"Twenty thousand yuan a month is too much. Two thousand is about the same."

Huang Xiaolu can be considered a second-generation rich man, but when he heard that he was going to spend 20,000 yuan a month here, he couldn't help but He smacked his tongue slightly, after all, this was just a porridge shop, not one of those entertainment and consumption places.

“Actually, I spend 20,000 yuan here every month, which is really not a lot. Because the most expensive bowl of porridge here, wild ginseng porridge, costs 8888 per bowl. Two bowls in a month is almost enough.”

"Isn't this a bit outrageous? It's just a bowl of porridge." Huang Xiaolu smacked her tongue, "Also, he said it was wild ginseng, is it really wild ginseng? You can't be deceptive, right?"

"That's okay. Don't worry. Those who come here to drink porridge are either rich or expensive. And when making this wild ginseng porridge, the boss personally takes out the wild ginseng from the safe, and it has a qualification certificate and is certified by an authoritative organization. I heard that the boss has worked hard to collect these wild ginseng over the years, and most people still like it. I really can't bear to take it out and cook it The porridge is sold in the 1950s and 1960s. There are several sticks, and the heaviest one is only about 20 grams. I heard that there are not many left.

Every time I cook this wild ginseng. He slices the porridge and puts it into the porridge with his own hands, supervising the whole process. And the back kitchen is also monitored. If there is fraud, this store will not be able to stay open for so long."

"Then if the boss happens to be away, wouldn't it be possible to drink the wild ginseng porridge?" Yan asked with clear thoughts.

Kang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smile: "It seems like this. After all, this wild ginseng is now expensive but not marketable, and it is very valuable. In the 1950s and 1960s, the current market price seems to be 2 per gram. Three thousand, you have to have connections and connections, otherwise you won’t be able to buy real wild ginseng if you have money, and most of the ones you buy will be fakes.”

Jin Xinyan couldn't help but laugh and said: "Listening to what you said, this bowl of 8888 is not very expensive. If you put two or three grams in a bowl of porridge, it will be worth it."

Kang Cheng shook his head and said: "I just said, there is no unprofitable business in the world? Generally, there are only two grams of wild ginseng in a bowl of wild ginseng porridge, unless the shop owner deliberately puts more."

Huang Xiaolu complained: "Then he can earn at least two or three thousand from a bowl like this?"

Kang Cheng chuckled and said: "What kind of business can he do if he doesn't make money? Rent, labor, services, etc. In addition, real wild ginseng is hard to find, and even if you have money, it is difficult to buy it. Isn’t it normal for him to make you some money at a slight premium?”

Huang Xiaolu had nothing to say. She could only sigh in her heart that she, the so-called rich second generation, really didn't live up to her name. When she came here, a bowl of porridge felt expensive, and it was still quite expensive and she couldn't afford to drink it. Poverty limits your imagination!

Originally, she thought she was a rich person, but compared with the people who often come here to spend money, she is really a poor person.

"Brother, how come you have a membership card here?" Huang Xiaolu asked curiously.

Kang Cheng smiled to himself and said: "I didn't know there was such a porridge shop here. Not long ago, I helped my boss successfully negotiate a big project. The boss was very happy and gave me this card. Give it to me, there is still a balance of more than 300,000 yuan, just treat it as a benefit to me.”

Huang Xiaolu couldn’t help hearing this. Looking at his cousin with envy and admiration, he praised: "Brother, you are still awesome. You have been so good since you were a child. Even if you work entirely on your own ability, you can get such a good job very quickly, and you are still under the influence of others." Appreciation from the boss. Your boss is generous enough to reward you with more than 300,000 yuan casually.”

Kang Cheng curled his lips slightly and said: "This card was actually given to him by a customer, and the balance in it was not easy to withdraw, so he gave it to me as a gift. Rather than giving this card, I personally hope that he can give it to me directly. My money.”

Huang Xiaolu stuck out her tongue. Said: "Brother, can you still be short of money? As long as you ask, never will my uncle not give you at least hundreds of thousands in pocket money."

Kang Cheng, however, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I am already such an adult. , are you still embarrassed to ask your family for money?”

Huang Xiaolu said with a look of jealousy: "I have the nerve to ask my family for money, but they are not as generous as my uncle and aunt. My father, a stingy man, would give me tens of thousands of yuan at most every time he begged for a long time. My mother would not give me even a dime. I It's a girl, clothes, cosmetics, sanitary napkins , What kind of free money? They only give me 20,000 yuan a month, how can I spend it?"

Kang Cheng shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "You are not a young person anymore, you are a college graduate. A job to support oneself? ”

Huang Xiaolu pursed her lips and said: "I am a girl and I want to be rich. It's not like my family has no money. Why go to work?"

Kang Cheng glanced at Jin Xinyan and said with a smile: "Then you can't fix it Nothing to do , if you are not interested in going to work, you can learn from Xinyan and do something that interests you."

Jin Xinyan smiled and said: "Lulu is interested in food and is a foodie, if you can. words , She can actually be a food broadcaster, after all, she looks good and can eat."

Huang Xiaolu knew that she was making fun of herself and said angrily: "Xinyan, it's too much. I am interested in eating. But it counts I’m not a foodie. I’m only about 90 pounds now, and you’re over 100.” Kang Cheng smiled and said, “But Xinyan is at least three or four centimeters taller. ”

Huang Xiaolu glared and said: "Brother, you have gone too far. Turn your elbows outward, I am your sister, okay?"

Kang Cheng laughed and said: "Xinyan, is also my sister. "

"Don't misidentify your sister." Jin Xinyan rolled her eyes at him.

"That's right." Huang Xiaolu helped to cover up, "We just met, and I want to recognize my sister. You think so beautifully."

Kang Cheng smiled and was about to say more, But his face couldn't help but change slightly, and he looked at the door in shock.

They were now sitting at a table at the far end of the rooftop, and Kang Cheng happened to be facing the rooftop door.

Huang Xiaolu and Jin Xinyan, who were sitting opposite, noticed the change in his expression and couldn't help but turn around and look over there curiously.

I saw a group of three people over there, two men and one woman.

Two men, one a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing glasses, handsome and elegant, with the temperament of a scholar. There was another man in his thirties, with sharp eyes, well-dressed, and very imposing, but he was slightly half a body behind the middle-aged man with glasses, and he seemed to respect him very much.

The woman, in her thirties, is graceful and has the charm of a mature and beautiful woman. Huang Xiaolu and Jin Xinyan both felt that this woman looked familiar, but they couldn't remember who she was for a while.

The three people looked around for a while, then picked an empty table and sat down, one table away from them.

At this time, Kang Cheng suddenly stood up, ran slightly, bent over and quickly arrived in front of the three people. In the astonished expressions of Huang Xiaolu and Jin Xinyan, he nodded and bowed towards the younger one. man Say hello: "Brother Tao, hello, I didn't expect to meet you here. Today is really my lucky day."

"Who are you?" Tao Yaoyang looked up at him in surprise, not thinking of him for a moment. Who is.

Kang Cheng was not embarrassed at all. He continued to nod and bow and said with a smile on his face: "My name is Kang Cheng, assistant to President West of MDS Group."

"Oh, West. "Remember, you are his assistant." Tao Yaoyang nodded somewhat suddenly, but his tone was somewhat perfunctory, and he had no intention of talking to him more.

Kang Cheng was very discerning. When he saw this, he immediately said: "I just want to say hello to Brother Tao. I won't disturb you anymore."

After saying that, he was very polite again, nodding and bowing to Tao Yaoyang respectfully. After a moment, he turned around and left with a smile on his face, and sat back in his seat.

"Brother, who was that person just now?"

As soon as Kang Cheng sat down, Huang Xiaolu couldn't help but ask him in a low voice. To be honest, the way her cousin bowed down and bowed in front of that person just now really made her feel a little embarrassed.

Kang Cheng smiled slightly and lowered his voice and said: "He is the director of a large investment fund. He has a very impressive background. At least he is a well-known figure in our Donghai Province. Gray and white take all. Anyway, it is us The top few people in Donghai Province

But he is second to none. The most important thing is the handsome middle-aged guy wearing glasses. His name is Huo Jindong. He is a domestic fund boss and a influential figure in the financial and investment circles. Tuanmei and Youjuke, you know? They were all invested by him, and his investment fund is the largest shareholder of these two large listed companies..."

When the two women were surprised, they saw Tao Yaoyang over there suddenly shouted towards the door in surprise. "Chen Feng" was heard, and then the three people over there stood up from their seats and faced Chen Feng who had just appeared at the door.

Huo Jindong first said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, this is okay. What a coincidence. I actually met you here. I've invited you several times before, but you can't escape this time. "

When Kang Cheng saw this scene, he couldn't help but spit out the word "hold the grass" from his mouth.

Fortunately, the voice was not very loud, and Huang Xiaolu opposite and Jin Xinyan heard it.

But at this moment, Kang Cheng's heart was undoubtedly shocked.
