CHAPTER 11: THE TEXT OF THE GODS
“…”
Zhang Yang looked at the bare one hundred Yuan, he did not
feel anything missing, as far as he believes, a hundred Yuan was a lot but he
felt that a bare hundred Yuan without red envelope was not comfortable.
“Is there a red envelope?”
“No, what are you afraid of? You see, a lot of people don’t
use red envelopes.” Liu Biao pointing to the people without the red envelopes.
“Cough …” Zhang Yang suddenly started sweating, those people
had so much money they couldn’t hold in their hand, and naturally they do not
need any red envelopes. Zhang Yang used to think that only those people with
red envelopes in their hands had whole stack of money, therefore, this couldn’t
help but made Zhang Yang a little bit shocked.
“Go ahead and take it, I’ll go first.”
Liu Biao with his unmatchable thick skin pulled Zhang Yang
and went into the crowd inside the bar. Zhang Yang followed closely afterward.
“Liu Biao!”
Liu Biao, the tall and arrogant guy quickly pushed against
the crowd, slammed the small red envelope on the table and suddenly shouted.
Zhang Yang’s face burst of heat while everyone was startled looking at that
petty little red envelope displayed on the table and surprised. Nevertheless,
it was the first time that they were seeing such a loud small red envelope.
“What’s the matter? I know the seventh brother!” Liu Biao’s
immensely proud expression led Zhang Yang into a feeling of embarrassment.
However. Liu Biao’s words played a role, suddenly the
surrounding people’s eyes became different, and including several people with
red envelope couldn’t dare to underestimate him. In a very serious manner, Liu
Biao quickly opened the red envelope and took out the hundred Yuan and
registered his name along with a special symbol.
“There you go”, Liu Biao exchanged the red envelope with a
cigarette and pushed Zhang Yang with one hand with a wretched smile on his
face.
“Oh, Liu Biao’s friend Zhang Yang …” Zhang Yang took out the
hundred Yuan from his pants pocket in a weak manner.
“…………….”
The people around couldn’t help but get stunned for a
moment, although the record person hesitated for a bit, he accepted the hundred
Yuan and wrote down Zhang Yang’s name. After recording Zhang’s name, he
pondered for a while and made an annotation at the end of Zhang Yang’s name as
Liu Biao’s friend.
“Give it to me.” Liu Biao pulled Zhang Yang out from the
crowd after he won the cigarettes in his hand and said “You do not smoke, or
let me, hey, this cigarette is the top product of Lotus King series, the
Diamond lotus King, but costs more than a hundred Yuan …”
“Ah… ah … this cigarette costs more than a hundred Yuan …?”
Zhang Yang’s eyes were wide open, for him, a dozen of packet of cigarettes
would still be too expensive for that price, and a packet of cigarettes for
more than a hundred, it was simply unimaginable.
“Of course, the boss certainly pours wine, with this kind of
cigarette!” Liu Biao looked down upon Zhang yang's face as he was some kind of
town dweller of a middle class.
“….”
Zhang Yang looked at the proud face of Liu Biao without saying
anything. He clearly knew that the value of the cigarette was more than a
hundred Yuan and still he only took two hundred Yuan on the red envelope and
split it into two, it clearly reckoned that Liu Biao engaged in this kind of
business from scandal like this.
“Oh, By the way, you know the boss who organized this
feast?” Zhang Yang suddenly asked.
“ … Cough … Cough …, oh, yes I do.”
“He doesn’t know you, does he?” Zhang yang immediately saw
through Liu Biao’s trick.
“Well … “Liu Biao in a weak tone.
“And you still brought me here to eat??” Zhang Yang became very
depressed. Liu brought him here to eat and yet he yelled at him.
“Didn’t you say you were hungry? ****, and now you’re
blaming me …, you see, you see these delicacies, they are for eating, we are
here on a red envelope! ‘A dog biting Lu Dongbin doesn’t’ know how good people
look like’.
#idiom meaning: to ill reward a person’s kindness.
“Eat! Why don’t you eat …? Zhang Yang touched his belly, and
started to eat a little moldy bread from his pocket, which made him even hungrier.
“Good Brother!”
Liu Biao laughed heartily, and Zhang Yang followed him to a
group of people sitting on a remote table. The people on that table actually
didn’t knew Liu Biao which made Zhang yang wonder whether Liu Biao could mix
along with them or not at the end.
The seats were still not opened, although there were plenty
of food, but no chopsticks. Maybe the chopsticks will be put along with the
opening of seats. After sitting down, Zhang Yang had a chance to look around
the restaurant.
The restaurant was very large. There were at least about
sixty tables, but right now there were no empty tables except for a few and the
flow of people at the doorway in a steady manner. The scene was very chaotic,
but very quiet, which made Zhang Yang feel very strange. The hall with hundreds
of people in it and absolutely no sound, it indeed was a strange feeling.
Zhang Yang did not have any experience in decoration, but
still he could see, the hotel was very nice, the vast space was decoration was
magnificent. In the middle of the hall, a few huge pillars in the shape of
golden dragon was entrenched, lifelike, which made people have a longing to
fly.
The hall had a tall glass curtain, the glass was very clean,
without a single stain. Below was a row of magnolia flowers, the entire luxury
hall was embellished by the ray of green, which let the rich people feel
relaxed and happy.
After watching the decoration and just a glance at the
people, Zhang Yang was surprised. The whole hall was wearing a casual short
sleeves, whether gentle or big with a neat suit. Most of them only had a little
difference between the color of the shirt and the tie.
“There doesn’t seem to be too much confusion here, does it?”
Zhang yang although he discorded Liu Biao fooling around, at ordinary times,
still the eyes were very dangerous, and occasionally giving them a vicious
look.
“Quiet down, most of them are businessmen, or some local
bosses. Do not look at them directly, we don’t want to mess up with them.” Liu
Biao hurriedly pulled Zhang Yang’s sleeve.
“Oh, … yeah, you said …, who is this seventh brother?”
Zhang Yang suddenly asked.
“I don’t know, never heard of him before, but it seems Xiao Boss is
better.”
“Who is Xiao Boss?”
“Geez …, Xiao Boss is the sponsor of today’s wine … … Don’t know when will I be able to reach Xiao Boss
level, today, just from this promotion feast, he’ll receive millions of red
envelopes, … whining …, When will you
understand?”
“Millions of Yuan?”
Zhang Yang’s eyeballs were almost falling off thinking about
the millions of astronomical figures. Although he often heard someone talking
about millions, still he did not have a clear outline, exactly how big of a
pile is a million …?”
“Hehe …, let me tell you, today’s feast will at least
generate an income of tens of millions, just take a look, there are so many
people in this hall, then there’s the second floor, and the third floor with the
private rooms, where people are possibly carrying about tens of thousands of
thousands of red envelopes. In addition to the catering expenses, one could at
least earn about eight millions … …”
Liu Biao said with his eyebrows dancing and radiant face as
if the tens of millions of money is his. In reality, he also heard these from
the gossips, but, as Liu Biao said, Zhang Yang thought of the red envelopes on
the scene, he also became convinced that there were some basis on what Liu Biao
had said. If some analysis were done in
numbers, then three to five millions should be easily obtained.
“For what position was Xiao Boss promoted for…, why such a
huge banquet …?”
“Ah, about that ...
cough … cough … I am not so sure. They say that several of the
underground casino of C city is managed by him, and the entire underground
forces of the city area have come here to give him congratulations … ..”
“Bow down … …”
Suddenly, Zhang Yang grabbed Liu Biao’s head to the table
below, he also squatted under the table, and the guests who were sitting on the
table were stunned.
“What are you doing … ah?” Liu Biao broke out of Zhang Yang’s
hand to get up and smiled abruptly at the other people following by a furious
look at Zhang Yang.
“Xiao Yiran, Xiao Yiran … ah"
Zhang yang hide himself and put on long face, looked at the
wall with a glass curtain, saw outside the corridor a figure of a tall, girl
wearing a white dress was walking towards the hotel’s entrance, obviously to
come here. Zhang Yang did not expect to meet the girl here, but she had a
heavyhearted look on her face.
Lmao Zhang is in big trouble!
