Chapter 1938 Acquaintance in 1938

After Lai Qinghua moved in at the administrative building, he kept waiting for Ye Chen to contact him.

When he came to Jinling this time, he knew that he did not have the financial strength and went to compete with these top rich people. Therefore, the only purpose of coming to Jinling this time was to meet Ye Chen.

So, when Chen Zekai contacted him, he said without hesitation: "Please tell Mr. Ye, just say that I will wait for his big carriage at any time."

When Ye Chen heard this, he did not delay and asked Chen Zekai to take him to the administrative building and come to Lai Qinghua's room.

As soon as they met, Ye Chen said respectfully: "Mr. Lai, we are meeting again."

Lai Qinghua quickly bowed, and at the same time, saying respectfully: "Young Master Ye, I'm polite!"

Ye Chen hurriedly reached out to support him and said, "Mr. Lai is so polite. How could I accept your gift!"

Lai Qinghua said with a serious expression: "Young Master Ye, your destiny is above me, and I have been kind to me. It is natural for me to see you bow."

After saying that, he hurriedly said to Ye Chen: "Master Ye, please come in and speak!"

Ye Chen nodded and turned to Chen Zekai and said, "Old Chen, I'll talk to Mr. Lai for a few words, you can go back first."

Chen Zekai said respectfully: "Okay young master."

After saying that, he said to Lai Tsinghua again: "Mr. Lai, I will take my leave first."

Lai Qinghua bowed to him: "Mr. Chen walks slowly."

After Chen Zekai left, Ye Chen followed Lai Qinghua into the room where he checked in.

This is an executive luxury suite with an area of ​​more than 200 square meters, and a living room alone accounts for nearly 100 square meters.

At this time, a set of purple clay tea sets had been placed on the coffee table in the living room. In addition, there was also a bronze incense burner.

Lai Qinghua asked Ye Chen to sit down on the sofa, and while boiling water to prepare tea, he took out a piece of wood the size of a palm, and then gently scraped off some powder on the piece of wood with an exquisite silver knife.

Then, he took out a set of exquisite copper tools, first used tools to flatten the incense ash in the incense burner, then poured the powder scraped off the wood on the incense ash, and used tools to press it into the shape of a lotus.

Ye Chen recognized the set of things he used, which was the famous seal fragrance.

Most people who like to burn incense directly buy processed incense or thread incense, but some people still pay attention to people who like to press seal incense by themselves.

Most of the scraps used for pressing seal incense are agarwood or Laoshan sandalwood, which can be regarded as waste utilization and the cost will not be too high.

But what Lai Qinghua used was a large piece of agarwood, which surprised Ye Chen quite.

Because the price of large pieces of agarwood is still very expensive in the market, if the price is calculated by gram, it is much more expensive than gold.

If such a piece of agarwood carved into a Buddhist image like Buddha, Bodhisattva or Tara, it can be sold for at least hundreds of thousands of yuan.

At this time, Lai Qinghua used a match to ignite the seal fragrance pressed into the shape of a lotus, and said to Ye Chen with a smile: "Mr. Ye, you should not be repulsive of the smell of agarwood, right?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, looked at the wisp of blue smoke rising into the air, and also smelled the unique fragrance when the agarwood was ignited. He felt very comfortable, so he spoke: "Mr. Lai is really elegant. When I was a child, I smelled this kind of seal fragrance from my mother. After so many years, I smelled it again, and the aftertaste was endless."

Lai Qinghua nodded and said seriously: "Your mother is very famous in the United States. It is said that when she was alive, she spared no effort to promote the traditional Chinese culture in the United States. Many ladies from the upper class in the United States were proud to be able to imitate her. They like seal fragrance for many years. The price of agarwood in the United States has been stable for decades. Until your mother's seal fragrance was so popular in the upper class, the price of this agarwood in the United States has increased by more than five times within a year."

Ye Chen asked curiously: "Has Mr. Lai ever seen my mother?"

"See you." Lai Qinghua nodded slightly and said seriously: "Mr. Ye, I have been with your great-grandfather for many years. When we met, your grandfather was still in his infancy. I was invited by your great-grandfather to drink your mother's full moon wine."

Ye Chen's great-grandfather was his grandfather's father and the founder of the An family.

However, Ye Chen had never seen this great-grandfather. When he passed away, Ye Chen had not been born yet.

When Ye Chen heard Mr. Lai telling this secret, he asked in surprise: "Mr. Lai, are you and my great-grandfather friends?"

"Yes." Lai Qinghua smiled indifferently and explained: "Your great-grandfather is about my age. I met him in 1938. At that time, I went to the United States on the same boat with him. We both fell in love with each other, overcoming obstacles and supporting each other, which can be regarded as a close relationship."

"So that's it!" Ye Chen said, stood up and bowed to Lai Qinghua.

Lai Qinghua quickly stood up and said with some surprise: "Mr. Ye, you are the destiny of Long Ge. How can you salute to the lower class... You should salute to you!"

Ye Chen said seriously: "You are close friends with my great-grandfather, and of course I am also my elder. As a junior, I should bow to you!"

Lai Qinghua said very seriously: "Young Master Ye, what I believe in is the fate of heaven. From the perspective of fate, you are the king and I am a minister. Even if I am over 100 years old, I will still be a minister when I see you."

Seeing that his attitude was firm, Ye Chen stopped arguing with him and hurriedly said, "Mr. Lai, then let's save this set of etiquette and just treat it as a friend of age. What do you think?"

Lai Qinghua was slightly stunned, then nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, okay, since Young Master Ye said that, I should obey my orders."

Then, the two sat down again.

Ye Chen remembered something and asked Lai Tsinghua: "Mr. Lai, you are helping me promote the rejuvenation pill in North America. I wonder if my grandfather has asked you about it?"

"Your grandfather..." Lai Qinghua said this and couldn't help but smile: "He doesn't believe in fate. When he was young, he often talked about 'My fate is up to me,' and didn't care about fate. He even had prejudice against me before, and always thought that I was a liar in the world, so we actually had little contact, especially after your great-grandfather passed away, we had no connection. I believe that even if he was interested in Huichun Dan, he wouldn't come to me to inquire."

After saying that, he asked Ye Chen curiously: "Master Ye, you must have all the registration lists in your hand. I wonder if there is an An family member to sign up?"

"No." Ye Chen shook his head and said, "There is no one with the surname An in all the registration information."

Lai Qinghua nodded and smiled, and said, "Your grandfather has a very arrogant personality. He is likely not to join in this kind of fun. Unless he is allowed to know the effects of the Rejuvenation Pill first, he will not come here in person."

After saying that, Lai Qinghua looked at Ye Chen and exclaimed: "But then again, Young Master Ye, the rule that the successful bidder you have set must take the Rejuvenation Pill on the spot is really amazing. Not only can all the people participating in the auction witness the magical effects of Rejuvenation Pill, but it can also make all the big figures who want to get Rejuvenation Pills to appear in person! I believe that when the next Rejuvenation Pill auction, many capital giant crocodiles will appear on their own initiative!"
