Uncle Qian said happily, “Good news, good news. I won the lottery.”
Even Yao Yue was affected by this kind of laughter. She couldn’t wait to ask, “What do you think? Is it the kind with a five-million-yuan special prize?”
Uncle Qian’s face darkened. “Where is it? I just got five yuan.”
“Oh my god, Uncle Qian, the older you live, the more energetic you are. How could you be so happy with five yuan?”
Brucille almost vomited blood. He really thought that he had won such a big prize. It turned out that the award with the lowest score had made him so happy.
However, Uncle Qian said, “You don’t know that I made a bet with Ma Weibai. I won a treasure like him. Hahaha.”
The laughter reached Ma Weibai’s ears and made him gnash his teeth. When Brucille pushed Ma Weibai away from the house, his whole face was as black as coal.
“Master Ma, I want to know what kind of treasure you lost to make Uncle Qian so happy.”
Ma Wenzhuo said, “This old man has been coveting my little golden pig. I just casually said that as long as you buy the lottery, I will give it to you.”
“I originally meant that he won the big prize. I didn’t expect that the old man would do something bad to me. He spent 32 yuan on a 16-color ball. How can I not hit 5 yuan?”
After listening, Brucille and Yao Yue laughed so hard that Ma Wenzhuo’s face became even more ugly.
He came here to visit Liyu. It was wrong for Liyu, who had been discharged from the hospital, to recover without any sequelae.
Liyu said gently to Brucille, “My dearest Mr. Yip, I really don’t know how to thank you for saving my young and delicate little life.”
“Well, don’t be so stingy. I came here to tell you to be careful. Recently, the Autumn Auction House has been trying to keep a low profile as much as possible, especially for the major items, so as not to let others know in advance, so as not to have any accidents.”
“I understand, boss. But when are you going to let Miss Ku come back?”
Brucille frowned and said with a bitter smile, “I’m afraid she can’t come back for the time being. She has important things to do over there. If you don’t have enough people here, you can invite two more. You can do as you like.”
Liyu was actually worried about the rough safety, and she could feel it even more after experiencing life and death.
While protecting Brucille, Yao Yue also understood Brucille and his industry bit by bit.
However, she had never been clear about Brucille’s source of information and the movements of his funds. In a place like the Spring River City, she did not dare to investigate Brucille.
The reason was very simple. The entire Spring River City was filled with Brucille’s spies. If they destroyed their mutual trust and cooperation, it would be gone.
That was why she had always stayed obediently by Brucille’s side. Most of the time, she was like a servant.
Not long after, when Brucille left the auction house, he met Pollard. “Mr. Hwang, how is it? Come in and have a seat?”
This place used to be Pollard’s Hyatt Hotel, but now it had become Brucille’s health center and auction house. Pollard got out of the car to have a look.
“You’re extraordinary. You’re more capable than me. I’ve heard that all the businesses in the auction house are very popular. Congratulations, your son-in-law can also make a comeback.”
“You’re right. As long as this person has a dream, there will be a day when he will turn over. What are you doing?”
“There’s a friend gathering tonight, and I’m almost recovered. I have to go out to meet people. Besides, I’m strong and strong, so I can’t sit at home and wait for death. Let’s go first.”
Pollard, who had woken up from a vegetative state, was easier to get along with than before. There was less of a hint of sarcasm in him. He drove this shabby snow-covered car and disappeared from Brucille’s sight.
Pollard shook his head secretly. The person he used to look down on the most had already thrown him out of the eight streets.
He planned to take advantage of this friend gathering to transfer some money to his friends and prepare to open another hotel.
Although there was a fierce competition in the market today, there were still quite a lot of high-end hotels. He was an expert in this.
The private room where the banquet was held was very luxurious. In the past, this kind of party was usually held in the Hyatt Hotel. However, since Pollard became a vegetable, this kind of party had been transferred to other hotels.
Pollard, dressed in a famous brand, walked in through the gate, which immediately attracted a lot of people.
“Yo, Pollard, isn’t this Pollard?”
“Yes, Pollard, you’re awake. That’s great.”
“Haha, Pollard, you finally woke up.”
Looking at these warm-hearted brothers in front of him, Pollard was a little touched. “Thank you for your concern, friends. I, Pollard, strolled around in front of the gate of hell and came back successfully.”
This group of brothers hugged each other as if they had seen their long-lost elder brother.
Pollard happily took over the money for the wine and meat tonight. In the exchange of cups and cups, the friendship between them seemed to have returned to the peak that he had reached before.
After three rounds of drinking, Pollard said, “Thank you for your support. I’ll tell you a piece of good news. Because of a little accident, the Hyatt Hotel was transferred to someone else.”
“But being a hotel is a job to make money. I’m going to start over again.”
“Well, Mr. Hwang, whatever you do, our brothers will unconditionally support you.”
“Yes, Mr. Hwang, the dishes here are not as good as that of the Hyatt Hotel. If you open a new hotel, we will still be at your place for the annual party in the future.”
“Yes, yes, yes, let’s toast together to celebrate Mr. Hwang’s comeback…”
The atmosphere at the scene was very lively, and another glass of wine was emptied.
Pollard continued, “Everyone, things are different now. It takes tens of millions of yuan to open a hotel, but I’ve spent a lot of money in the past two years. I don’t have enough money. I don’t know which brother is willing to do business with me.”
The scene just now was quite lively. After Pollard talked about today’s important topic, he suddenly became quite embarrassed and no one answered.
The guy who had cheered for Pollard just now said sourly, “It’s true that we don’t visit each other for no reason. Usually, we don’t have many chances to get together. It turns out that you invited us to dinner just to borrow money.”
“That’s right. The market price is poor these days, and no one dares to come out to do business with money. My twin son was just born last month, and every month’s milk powder money has already made me very anxious.”
“That’s right. My mother-in-law was demolished last month, and her house of 60 square meters needs to be changed to 120 square meters. The price difference alone needs to be made up for hundreds of thousands of yuan. It’s really not enough.”
Finally, a glamorous man asked, “Mr. Hwang, if you want money, just tell me. I don’t need it. How much do you want?”
“Li Wei? I estimate that it will cost at least 20 million yuan. The rest can be borrowed from the bank. Can you borrow some money?”
