Chapter 1434: Negotiating business at home
"No need, the chef at my home is much better than the one in the hotel." Mr. Huo introduced, and then led Lin Ran to the other side of the second floor.
At the top of the stairs, an elevator appeared!
In this day and age, not many office buildings have elevators, but he actually installed an elevator in his home.
However, after Mr. Huo entered, he didn't seem to know how to use the elevator, so he clicked on it randomly.
Lin Ran asked where he was going, then pressed 1, and the elevator closed by itself.
"It's used like this. Mr. Lin is really good. He can tell how to use it just by looking at it." Mr. Huo said with admiration.
He also installed an elevator in his home because he injured his foot and needed a period of rest before he could walk.
The salesperson told him this was high-end product.
Lin Ran was a little speechless, but didn't know how to explain it, so he said: "There is one in the office building of the Beijing Museum. I use it a lot." By the way, he taught Mr. Huo how to use the elevator.
In the face of technology, although rich people are at the forefront of the times, technology still cannot keep up.
"That's it. Thank you Mr. Lin for your advice."
The elevators in this era were too slow. When they reached the first floor, the elevator door slowly opened and Lin Ran pushed Mr. Huo out of the elevator.
Then, under the guidance of Mr. Huo, he came to the room directly opposite on the first floor.
The size of the room is not large, only about [-] square meters. The decoration inside is exactly the same as that of the hotel, with a revolving dining table with glass on it.
After they took their seats, Mr. Huo pressed the button on the table.
A butler and a waiter walked in at the same time, holding notebooks in their hands.
After Mr. Huo talked about a few dishes, he asked Lin Ran: "Mr. Lin, what do you want to eat?"
"I'm not hungry yet." Lin Ran thought to himself that he was too extravagant to have a restaurant at home.
"Then try our golden pumpkin soup." Mr. Huo knew that Lin Ran was being polite to him, so he helped him order as a landlord.
After ordering, the two people left to prepare the dishes.
They chatted for a while.
"Mr. Huo is really leisurely and elegant. He moved the hotel to his home." Lin Ran admired his courage. Even if he was rich, raising a chef and butler at home was still a big deal.
"Haha, I'm just too lazy to go out and eat here. No one can come and cause trouble here."
After they chatted for about half an hour.
A man wearing a mandarin jacket appeared.
He is about thirty years old, tall and burly, and looks like a very tough type. He has a goatee and looks gentle and domineering.
The clothes give people a sense of elegance, but the appearance is a bit wild.
"Hongda, you are finally here." Master Huo smiled at him.
Seeing that Mr. Huo still wanted to stand up, the middle-aged man hurriedly walked to him and motioned for him to sit down: "Mr. Huo, you are so polite. I want to thank you for inviting me to dinner."
"Where." Mr. Huo narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Huo introduced the two parties to each other.
"You are Mr. Lin! You are so young, it is better to see him than to hear him a hundred times!" Hong Da said, cupping his fists.
Seeing how polite he was, Lin Ran stood up and shook hands with him, but didn't say much.
He didn't feel that Hongda was here to make friends with him, but rather he felt that he was here to do business with him.
The other party actually knew Mr. Lin's name. No one in Nanling had ever called him that.
"Where is Deng Yunjin?" Immediately afterwards, Hongda asked about the whereabouts of another person.
"They are coming soon." Mr. Huo glanced at the time.
There were actually other guests.
Lin Ran felt that his troublesome idea had indeed come true. It was definitely not as simple as eating.
Soon, laughter came from the living room.
From the door of the room, three people came in.
Walking at the front was a middle-aged man in his 40s, wearing a Tang suit and a pair of small sunglasses on his eyes.
The combination of Chinese and Western styles is simply a model of Chinatown.
Moreover, he had a big belly and his face was full of flesh.
After entering the door, he laughed heartily.
"Master Huo, Master Hong, long time no see!"
It's better not to smile, but when he smiles, he can't even see his eyes.
Following him were a man and a woman.
Both of them look young and in great shape.
Both wore fitted suits and glasses.
Especially women, who exude a youthful and beautiful temperament and look like workplace beauties.
The other boy looked very polite.
But both of them had confidence in their eyes.
The fat man is Deng Yunjin, the guest that Mr. Huo said he would invite.
Deng Yunjin did not introduce the other two people. Judging from their temperament and movements, the man should be a treasure appraiser, and the woman should be his secretary.
After the three of them entered the room, Deng Yunjin took his seat directly, and the two of them stood upright behind him.
Seeing this, Lin Ran glanced at Mr. Huo.
These three people didn't seem to be here for dinner.
Mr. Huo also saw Lin Ran's thoughts and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, don't worry, aren't you hungry? You listen nearby first, they want to talk about something."
Lin Ran crossed his hands on his chest, preparing to watch a good show.
I don’t know why he was invited here, but he must be invited to sit here. He must have some ideas and it’s better not to talk nonsense.
Deng Yunjin nodded when he saw Lin Ran acting like it had nothing to do with him.
Then, Hongda clapped his hands and a subordinate walked in from outside the room.
He held a brocade box in his hand, and under Hongda's instructions, he placed it respectfully in front of Deng Yunjin's position.
"Antique trading?" Lin Ran was confused.
Lin Ran had never seen anyone trading antiques at the dinner table.
Today is also an eye-opener.
Deng Yunjin glanced at the brocade box in front of him and was unmoved.
At this time, Mr. Huo pressed the button, and two servants came in and made Deng Yunjin and Hongda a cup of tea each.
"Brother Deng, I have been preparing for many days and only made the transaction today. I am really sorry."
"What did Boss Hong say? Of course it takes longer to prepare such valuable antiques." Deng Yunjin laughed loudly, appearing very generous, and then picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"That's good, you might as well take a look..." Hongda also laughed.
But when he didn't think about it, Deng Yunjin's laughter stopped suddenly and he coughed lightly.
"Well, it's understandable that good things take a long time. However, in this short period of time, I have heard some rumors."
Deng Yunjin's expression became playful, and Hong Da's expression also changed a little when he heard this.
"A friend told me that the product in Boss Hong's hands is a fake?"
After saying that, Deng Yunjin suddenly put down his cup.
It seems that he originally wanted to get angry, but considering that he was at Mr. Huo's house, he restrained himself a little.
