Chapter 622
At this time, Jacob said happily: “By the way, my wife, give me 20,000, and I have a dinner tomorrow.”
“A treat for dinner?” Elaine suddenly became nervous, and blurted out: “Dinner for 20,000?!”
Jacob couldn’t help but said with joy: “I joined our Aurous Hill Calligraphy and Painting Association some time ago. Now there is a vacancy for a standing director in the association. I want to fight for it! So I want to invite the chairman and other executives. The directors have a meal together to bring the relationship closer.”
After that, Jacob said with a smug look: “If I can take the position of executive director, then I will be a celebrity in the Aurous Hill antique circle in the future!”
Elaine hurriedly scolded: “Are you going crazy? A treat for dinner costs 20,000? You run the money printing machine at home? I tell you, I won’t agree!”
Jacob hurriedly said: “Oh, my wife, don’t you want to climb up too! As a standing director, I will have more opportunities to get in touch with antique calligraphy and painting in the future, and there will be more opportunities to pick up the leaks. You are not the skill I missed. Haven’t you seen it before, I made hundreds of thousands in one hand!”
Elaine was very guilty and said, “That’s not okay to spend 20,000 on a dinner party! Do you really think that the wind blows at home?”
Jacob said angrily: “I spent this money, and I will definitely earn it back in the future! The big deal, can I still borrow yours?”
Elaine said contemptuously: “Who doesn’t know your level of stinking, even if you are a standing director, what can you do? I think you are about the same as Charlie a liar!”
Jacob was immediately anxious: “You Lady Willson, why do you look down on me so much?”
Elaine snorted: “I just look down on you, what’s the matter? Tell you, you want money, no!”
After speaking, she turned around and went back to the room pretending to be angry.
Jacob was very depressed.
What the h*ll are you doing, stinky girl?
Don’t give me 20,000?
I made a lot of money anyhow!
He was about to go to the room to find Elaine for the theory. Charlie hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile: “Dad, since Mom doesn’t want to give you money, it’s useless for you to chase after her.”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Jacob said angrily, “But I have already greeted them, and I want to invite them to dinner! I only have one thousand in my pocket, which is not enough for a treat!”
As he said, Jacob said again: “Our president said, I have a great chance to be the standing director, and it depends on whether I can perform well!”
When Charlie heard this, his heart suddenly felt helpless.
father-in-law, who knows no antique calligraphy and painting, is exactly a half-blind among the blind. He has been cheated so many times and lost a lot of money. In the end, he made a fortune by cheating on Ervin Jones.
It is said that Ervin Jones now hides from him every day, does not answer his phone calls, does not answer his WeChat, and sees him in Antique Street, even if he doesn’t want the stall, he will run away.
People like him are mixed in the Association of Calligraphy and Painting, which is just a way of filling the numbers.
However, Charlie naturally wouldn’t say such things, so he said to Jacob: “Dad, I still have some private money. Let me transfer 20,000 to your WeChat.”
When Jacob heard this, he immediately said with excitement: “Oh my good son-in-law! You really helped Dad a great favor!”
Charlie sighed, transferred 20,000 to him, and said, “Claire is coming back soon. I will cook.”
Jacob received the money and hurriedly said flatteringly: “Good son-in-law, I’ll help you wash rice!”
Chapter 623
While Charlie was busy cooking, Regnar and Roger, and his son also left the Willson family and drove to Classic Mansion.
Tonight, Regnar hosted a banquet in Classic Mansion and invited some of the most prestigious people in Aurous Hill. On the one hand, he wanted to find clues to the sudden change of his younger son Wu Qi, and on the other hand, to let the Wu family lay a little foundation in Aurous Hill.
Although the Wu family is the first family in Aurous Hill, it does not mean that they have sufficient control over the entire Aurous Hill.
The Wu family’s base camp is in Suzhou, so they have extraordinary control in the Suzhou area, but Aurous Hill is the Song family’s base camp, so the Wu family’s influence in Aurous Hill is far worse than the Song family.
Originally, the major families in Aurous Hill each had their own spheres of influence, and everyone maintained such a tacit understanding and respect for each other, and no one would expand their strength within the sphere of influence of the other side.
Regnar didn’t want to go deep in Aurous Hill, but the key is now that his eldest son Roger wants to marry Warnia from the Song family. In order to achieve this goal, Roger will stay in Aurous Hill for a long time in the future, so he prepared to fight with Aurous Hill families first. A greeting can also bring enough convenience to Roger in Aurous Hill in the future.
Roger has been a bit irritable for the past two days, first of all, because the last time Regnar and Mr. Song mentioned the marriage, Mr. Song directly refused, making Roger feel very shameless.
In addition, Roger is even more troubled by Warnia’s attitude.
In the past few days that he and her father lived in Song’s house, Warnia went out early and returned late every day!
In the past, he heard from Honor that Warnia used to eat breakfast at home before going out, and then went home early in the evening to accompany her father to dinner.
But now, Warnia doesn’t even eat breakfast every day and drives away straight out of her room in the morning.
In the evening, after she had eaten outside, comes back very late, and goes directly back to the room, basically not giving Roger a chance to meet.
This made him depressed.
He really didn’t expect Warnia to look down on him a little bit, unwilling to marry him, why is she acting like this?
In the car, Regnar also noticed that his son’s condition was not right, so he said: “You, you have to be more patient in everything. For a girl like Warnia, the whole Aurous Hill may not be able to find the second one. If you want to get your hands on her, it must take some energy and think.”
Roger was angry and said, “Dad, there is no other young man in Aurous Hill who is better than me, right? I can match her, why does she not know how to praise?”
Regnar said indifferently: “You don’t understand, girls from big families are always more popular than boys from big families.”
Then, he said: “A woman like Warnia, even among Eastcliff’s first-class and top families, would want to marry her in, because she is not only beautiful and capable, but the family strength is not weak, both inside and outside. It’s all very good. Not only does it save face when married, it can also play a very important role in the family, and even brings a generous dowry.”
“However, if you want to marry a girl from a Eastcliff first-class family or a top-class family, it will be as difficult as the sky. It is difficult for them to look at you. This is because when they look at you, they don’t just look at you, but It is the strength of the entire Wu family.”
“In layman’s terms, in the upper class, if a woman’s comprehensive strength reaches 70 points, then she can marry a man with a comprehensive strength of 80 points; but a man whose comprehensive strength reaches 70 points is difficult to marry a comprehensive strength of 70 points woman.”
Roger was a little angry, but blurted out: “Then what do you mean, I am looking for Warnia or am I climbing?”
Regnar said indifferently: “Although you may not like to listen to the truth, it is basically the same as this. Warnia will definitely find a better man than you, but it is difficult for you to find a better woman than Warnia.”
Roger was stunned. At first he was a little unconvinced. After thinking about it, he felt that what Dad said was right.
Warnia is indeed the woman with the highest overall score he has ever met.
As for the daughters of those big families in Eastcliff, even if the family is richer than the Song family, it is difficult to have the appearance and temperament of Warnia.
