Chapter 1938-Met in 1938
p the teacup to his lips and took a sip.then his expression became a little strange.after savoring it carefully for a long time, he said awkwardly, "Uncle Xiao has a strange taste in tea. To be honest...Chapter 1938 met in 1938
Lai Qinghua has been waiting for Ye Chen to contact him since he moved into the administrative building.
when he came to Jinling this time, he knew he didn't have the economic strength to compete with these top tycoons, so the only purpose of coming to Jinling this time was to meet Ye Chen.
so when Chen Zekai contacted him, he said without hesitation, "Please tell Master Ye that he will be waiting for him at any time."
when Ye Chen heard this, without delay, he directly asked Chen Zekai to take himself to the administrative building and to Lai Qinghua's room.
as soon as we met, Ye Chen said respectfully, "Mr. Lai, we meet again."
Lai Qinghua hurriedly bowed, bowed and said respectfully, "Master Ye, be polite!"
Ye Chen stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Lai is so kind. How can I accept your gift"
Lai Qinghua said with a straight face, "Master Ye, your life is above me, and you are kind to me. I take it for granted that you salute."
with that, he hurriedly said to Ye Chen, "Master Ye, please come in and speak!"
Ye Chen nodded and said to Chen Zekai, "Lao Chen, let me have a word with Mr. Lai. Go back first."
Chen Zekai said respectfully, "Yes, young master."
then he said to Lai Qinghua, "Mr. Lai, the younger generation will retire first."
Lai Qinghua arched at him and said, "Mr. Chen, take care."
after Chen Zekai left, Ye Chen followed Lai Qinghua into his room.
this is an executive deluxe suite with an area of more than 200 square meters, and the living room alone occupies nearly 100 square meters.
at this time, there was a purple sand tea set on the coffee table in the living room, and in addition, there was a censer made of bronze.
Lai Qinghua asked Ye Chen to sit down on the sofa, while boiling water to make tea, he took out a piece of wood the size of a palm, and then gently scraped a little powder off the wood with a delicate silver knife.
then he took out a set of exquisite copper tools. First, he used the tools to flatten and compact the incense ash from the censer, then poured the powder from the wood onto the ash and pressed it into the shape of a lotus flower.
Ye Chen knows this set of things he uses. This is the famous seal incense.
most people who like to burn incense directly buy processed pan incense or thread incense, but there are still some fastidious people who like to suppress seal incense themselves.
most of the materials used to suppress seal incense are bits and pieces of incense wood or old sandalwood, which can also be regarded as waste utilization, and the cost will not be too high.
but Ye Chen was surprised that Lai Qinghua used large chunks of incense wood.
because the price of large pieces of incense wood is still very expensive in the market, if calculated in terms of gram weight, it is much more expensive than gold.
if such a piece of incense wood is carved into a Buddhist image such as Buddha, Bodhisattva or Tara, it can at least sell hundreds of thousands of dollars.
at this time, while Lai Qinghua ignited the seal incense pressed into the shape of a lotus with a match, he smiled and said to Ye Chen, "Master Ye, you should not reject the smell of Chenxiang, right"
Ye Chen smiled, looked at the wisp of smoke rising into the sky, and at the same time smelled the unique aroma when the incense was ignited. He only felt particularly comfortable, so he said, "Mr. Lai is really elegant. This kind of seal fragrance, when I was with my mother and touched her light when I was a child, I smelled it in a flash for so many years, and smelled it again, with endless aftertaste."
Lai Qinghua nodded and said earnestly: "your mother is very famous in the United States. it is said that when she was alive, she spared no effort to promote Chinese traditional culture in the United States. Many upper-class ladies in the United States are proud to emulate her and like seal incense for many years, while the price of incense in the United States has been stable for decades until your mother's seal incense was highly sought after in high society. The price of this incense has more than quintupled in the United States in a year. "

Ye Chen asked curiously, "has Mr. Lai ever met my mother"
"Yes." Lai Qinghua nodded slightly and said earnestly, "Master Ye, in fact, I have known your great-grandfather for many years. When we met, your grandfather was still an infant. I was invited by your great-grandfather to drink your mother's full moon wine."
Ye Chen's great-grandfather, his grandfather's father, was the founder of the Anjia family.
however, Ye Chen had never met his great-grandfather. Ye Chen had not yet been born when he died.
hearing the secret from Mr. Lai, Ye Chen was surprised to ask, "Mr. Lai, are you friends with my great-grandfather"
"Yes." Lai Qinghua smiled calmly and explained, "your great-grandfather is about the same age as me. I met him in 1938. When we went to the United States in the same boat, we hit it off, cut through difficulties and support each other." it can be said that we are friends. "
"so it is!" Ye Chen stood up and bowed to Lai Qinghua.
Lai Qinghua hurriedly got up, some flattered and said, "Master Ye, you are the order of Longge, how can you salute to the next" It's supposed to be a salute to you! "
Ye Chen said earnestly, "you and my great-grandfather are inexorable friends, and naturally they are also my elders. As a younger generation, I should also salute you!"
Lai Qinghua said very solemnly, "Master Ye, the letter is destiny. In terms of destiny, you are the king and I am the minister. Even if I am over 100 years old, I am still a subject when I see you."
Ye Chen, seeing that he had a firm attitude, stopped arguing with him and said hurriedly, "Old Mr. Lai, let's just skip this set of etiquette and treat it as a friend who has forgotten the years. What do you think"
Lai Qinghua was stunned slightly, then nodded with a smile and said, "all right, now that Master Ye has said so, he will obey himself."
then the two sat down again.
when Ye Chen remembered something, he asked Lai Qinghua, "Mr. Lai, you helped me promote Hui Chundan in North America. I wonder if my grandfather ever asked you about it."
"your grandfather." When Lai Qinghua said this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "he doesn't believe in fate. When he was young, he often talked about my life. He didn't care about fate. He even had a lot of prejudice against me. He always thought I was a charlatan, so there was little contact between us, especially after your great-great-grandfather died. I believe he is interested in Huichun Dan. And he won't come to me for inquiries. "
then he asked Ye Chen curiously, "Master Ye, you must have all the registration lists. I wonder if any of the Anjia family can sign up."
"No." Ye Chen shook his head and said, "there is no one surnamed an in all the registration information."
Lai Qinghua nodded and smiled and said, "your grandfather is very proud, and chances are that he won't join in this kind of excitement. Unless he knows the efficacy of Huichuandan first, he won't come here in person."
then Lai Qinghua looked at Ye Chen and exclaimed, "but then again, Master Ye, the rule that the winner of the auction must be served on the spot is really amazing. It not only allows all the people who take part in the auction to witness the magical effect of Huichuidan with their own eyes, but also makes all the big shots who want to get it show up in person!" I believe that by the next auction of Huichuandan, many of the capital giants hidden in their bodies will take the initiative to show their bodies! "
at this point, Lai Qinghua looked at Ye Chen and said earnestly, "maybe at next year's auction, your grandfather will be on the list!"ow what kind of person he is, and he will do it when he says so.""Fuck the grandeur." The middle-aged woman said angrily, "I tell you, Zhang Xiaoman, the three of us will never allow you to marry Sun...
