Chapter 1047 The No. 1 Fool in the World(1/2)
The gatherings of ordinary people are called parties, and the gatherings of wealthy people are called social gatherings.
If there are any similarities, they are basically eating, drinking, bragging and farting, there is no special difference.
If there is any difference, it is probably that the venue is more high-end and the content is more noble and elegant.
Of course, if you go deeper, you will find that the meanings are different and the purposes are different.
Ordinary people gather to have a great time, but the gatherings of rich and status people have much richer connotations.
Being invited to the party may not necessarily be due to deep feelings, but more to do with status, because it is said to be a birthday party among friends, but it is actually an extension of family, chaebol, and political and business interests.
Being able to enter this club is itself a symbol of status and strength.
If Lu Shanmin's identity is only Wei Wuxian's junior brother and not the chairman of Chenlong Group, no matter how good the relationship is, he may not be able to enter this circle. In the same way, Han Yao is the same, just because he is his boyfriend
Come here, I'm afraid you're asking for trouble if you come here.
A circle is like a city. It can be said to be invisible, because you can't see or touch the boundary. It can also be said to be tangible, that is, whether the matching parameters between you and the circle are enough.
Any circle, especially the higher circles, can never be brought in by anyone. If your own attributes do not match, even if you are brought in, you will not be able to integrate in, and you will be squeezed out sooner or later. If your own attributes are up to
At that level, you can get there naturally without anyone’s guidance.
Of course, this does not mean that Lu Shanmin is qualified to enter this circle. Most of the people in the club do not think so.
But for Lu Shanmin, he needs to increase his exposure in this circle. He needs to let these people know that there is a person like him in Tianjing. It is not just for simple fame. In fact, he does not like this kind of social interaction, just for the future.
One day, if someone wants to attack him, he will still have to be careful and think carefully.
Lu Songtao was very enthusiastic as the commentator. Although the Wei family was considered a top wealthy family, it was still lagging behind the four major families. Therefore, except for the Han family, which was closely related to the Wei family, three people came, and one representative from the other three families came.
.But there are quite a few people from other second-rate families or companies that have business dealings with the Wei family.
Lu Shanmin's appearance actually did not attract many people's attention, but when they found that he was sitting at the same table as Lu Songtao and Tian Heng, many people cast doubtful glances intentionally or unintentionally, especially those who did not know Lu Shanmin's identity.
Everyone is guessing who this person is. In their knowledge, there is no such a wealthy kid in Tianjing.
Of course, there are some people who know the details of Lu Shanmin and are dissatisfied with his "fake power", such as Han Tong, who has a cold face at the moment, and Wu Qingfeng, who has a sinister smile on his face.
Lu Shanmin glanced at Wu Qingfeng and asked, "Does the Wu family have a particularly good relationship with the Nalan family?"
Lu Songtao frowned slightly, "Why do you ask that?"
"Wu Qingfeng is quite hostile to me, but it seems that I have not offended the Wu family very much."
Lu Songtao shook his head, "If you want to say it's good, it means we meet each other from time to time. As for whether it's particularly good, mountain people, you know me. I'm not interested in a deeper relationship."
Tian Heng said lightly: "The ancestors of the Wu family are red capitalists. After the founding of New China, they made a lot of contributions to the country, so they enjoyed a lot of policy support. At that time, Northeast China was a heavy industrial base, and most of the Wu family's heavy asset industries were
In the Northeast, at any time and in any place, if you want to do good things well, it is not enough to have a cover, you have to be on the right track in the local area. The Nalan family has deep roots in the Northeast and has helped the Wu family a lot."
"No wonder".
Lu Songtao took a deep breath and said, "Brother mountain people, you really have to be careful. It's okay if the Nalan family is fine. But if something happens, there's no guarantee that the Wu family won't take action."
Lu Shanmin frowned slightly, "If you three families don't take action, will the Wu family take action?"
Tian Heng said lightly: "It's hard to explain this kind of thing, but even if you don't do it openly, you may do something secretly."
He picked up the wine glass and took a sip of red wine, "So I still say what I said, your chance of winning is almost zero."
Xiao Nizi turned to look at Wu Qingfeng, "How about I kill him?"
Tian Heng didn't react at all. He had already heard this innocent and lovely girl say harsh words, but this was the first time they met Lu Songtao. He was holding a wine glass and was about to clink it with Lu Shanmin when his hand slipped and the glass almost fell.
Lu Shanmin coughed and said, "With so many people watching, don't talk nonsense." He smiled at Lu Songtao and said, "Xiao Nizi likes to joke."
Lu Songtao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Miss Liu is really funny."
Xiao Nizi still stared at Wu Qingfeng indifferently, "Seduce him first, lead him to a place where no one is around, and slap him to death." She said and made a slapping gesture.
Lu Songtao's smile froze on his face. This time he didn't think Xiao Nizi was joking, because Xiao Nizi's expression was very serious and casual, as if she was talking about swatting a fly.
Lu Shanmin touched Xiao Nizi under the table and told her to pay attention to her image.
Xiao Nizi was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what she was doing. She picked up the cup and greeted Lu Songtao with a smile, "Brother Lu, what kind of dance are you going to teach me later?"
Lu Songtao looked at Lu Shanmin, his heart was beating wildly, and he smiled awkwardly at Xiao Nizi, "I'm sorry, Miss Liu, my legs are a little cramped. I'm afraid I won't be able to teach you how to dance for a while."
Lu Shanmin glared at Xiao Nizi and said, "Sit here for a while, not going anywhere."
"Promise to go".
Xiao Nizi pursed her lips and looked unhappy. She dressed up so beautifully today and wanted to be in the limelight, but she could only sit here. It was so frustrating.
Since Wei Wuxian felt the threat from Lu Songtao, his heart was on fire. He hurriedly greeted everyone for a while, and soon came to this table.
Lu Shanmin asked: "Don't you, the master, greet guests?"
Wei Wuxian glanced at Lu Songtao, "My brother passed away, so who am I?"
He looked at Xiao Nizi with a smile and said, "Sister Xiao Nizi, who bullied you, tell me and I will help you teach him a lesson."
Xiao Nizi glared at Wei Wuxian, "It's none of your business."
Tian Heng stared at Xiao Nizi blankly, unable to detect any martial arts aura in her body, just like an ordinary girl, but he knew that this girl was by no means as simple as she seemed on the surface.
"Brother Tian, you are already thirty years old, Xiao Nizi is not suitable for you."
Tian Heng withdrew his gaze and joked: "You are not much younger than me."
Although Han Yao always maintained the look that every lady should have, her light blue eyes glanced at Lu Shanmin from time to time. The man at the same table felt a little unhappy and asked: "Who is that person? He can actually compete with Lu Songtao and Tian
sit together".
Han Tong snorted coldly, "A lowly child from a ravine put on chicken feathers to pretend to be a peacock."
Han Chengxuan said calmly: "Brother Yun, your family has been an official for generations, and you have just returned from studying in the United States. Naturally, you don't know that his name is Lu Shanmin, a legendary figure. It is said that he grew up in a remote mountain village and was only a primary school graduate.
After arriving in Donghai, he started from scratch and worked hard to become the chairman of Chenlong Group in five years. He arrived in Tianjing last year and studied finance in Tianjing. He is Wei Wuxian's fellow junior."
Yun Qinci chuckled, and his smile was quite relaxed, "I was just wondering when a young man from a wealthy family would appear among the younger generation, and it turned out to be a mud-legged guy."
Then he asked Han Yao: "Sister Yaoyao, you are also studying in Tianjing University of Finance and Economics. You will be a junior this year."
Han Yao hummed, "I will be a senior at the end of this semester."
"Oh," he said, looking at Lu Shanmin again, "Do you know each other?"
Han Yao smiled slightly and said, "He is my boyfriend."
Yun Qinci's head buzzed, thinking that he had heard wrongly. He looked at Han Chengxuan with questioning eyes, and the latter nodded apologetically.
Han Tong's eyes rolled and suddenly a light came out. Her family would not let her deal with Lu Shanmin, but Yun Qinci could.
"Mr. Yun, you heard me right, that person is Yaoyao's boyfriend." He sighed with pretense of regret, "Girls just can't stand sweet words."
Han Yao was not stupid. She naturally guessed that Han Tong had the intention to kill someone with a borrowed knife, so she simply refused to do anything and made Yun Qinci give up completely. She said with a smile: "Brother Yun, I forgot to tell you that he and I have been together for a while.
It's time." He lowered his head and said shyly: "I am already his woman."
As soon as these words came out, not only Yun Qinci, but also Han Tong and Han Chengxuan were shocked.
"When did it happen?" Han Tong almost exploded on the spot, shaking with anger.
Han Chengxuan saw that something was wrong and quickly gave Han Tong a hand, "Sister-in-law, pay attention to the occasion."
Lu Songtao raised his head towards Han Yao's table and said, "Brothers from the mountains, you have a love rival."
Lu Shanmin had already noticed the hostile gaze of the man sitting next to Han Yao, and smiled lightly, "Everyone likes good things, let alone a girl like Han Yao. Naturally, someone will pursue her."
Tian Heng smiled and said, "You are very open-minded."
"What else can I do? I can still prevent others from liking me."
Xiao Nizi shook my fist and said, "Why not?" She then sat down and wiped her neck, "Just kill it."
Lu Songtao swallowed the red wine and felt a chill in his neck. He coughed and said to Lu Shanmin: "Since ancient times, beauties have brought disaster. That man's name is Yun Qinci. Although it is not a big family, there is a high-ranking official in the family with great power.
Not too young. In a place like Tianjing, I would rather offend the rich than the powerful. If I can’t offend, it’s best not to offend.”
Tian Heng said: "Second Master Lu is right. Whether you are in business or politics, the secret to success is to make friends. Even if you can't make friends, you can't make enemies for no reason. Unless you can crush the roots and eradicate them, there will be endless troubles."
”.
Lu Shanmin glanced at the pair of malicious eyes not far away and smiled helplessly, "You can't have your cake and eat it too, it seems that this powerful young man has to offend him."

The dance party was about to begin. The bright lights were turned off and replaced with soft and dim colorful neon lights. The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became ambiguous and warm.
A popular sound streaked across the sky. The rich and hazy two seconds of music transitioned to the brisk sound of piano keys. A piece of Richard's "Starry Sky" sounded in the hall. It was distant, deep, and not sad, although there was a certain
The feeling of reluctance, but the tranquility gives people unlimited imagination. No matter in any kind of spiritual situation, listening to this song will always make you look up.
The spotlight shone on the piano player. Han Yao was like a bright star in the night sky, with a smile on her face and her slender index finger flying between the keys. Lu Shanmin was stunned for a moment.
As the piano played, pairs of men and women began to step onto the dance floor, dancing to the elegant and brisk rhythm.
Lu Songtao joked: "Brothers and sisters are versatile, and mountain brothers are very lucky."
