Who is it?
Ye Chen, who was strolling and admiring the scenery inside the villa, immediately stopped.
He asked the security personnel in surprise.
Since they were stopped outside by security personnel, they must not have been here before.
Ye Chen had security personnel record all those who had visited the Four Seasons Hotel West Lake before, so there was no need to stop them next time.
Not many people know that they are staying in the presidential villa of a hotel.
"Boss, this is a very fat middle-aged man weighing over 200 pounds."
Upon hearing Ye Chen's question, the security personnel immediately provided a detailed answer.
"A middle-aged man weighing over 200 pounds?"
Ye Chen muttered to himself, he still didn't remember anything.
"He said he had seen you in front of the Ning family's house before and asked for your contact information."
It seemed that the mysterious guest outside had just finished introducing himself to the security personnel, and then the security personnel added something to Ye Chen.
"Outside the Ning family's residence?"
Ye Chen remembered.
Last time, I did encounter a fat CEO outside the Ning family's house. He even waited for me for more than an hour.
Why did he come looking for me?
"Let him in."
Ye Chen gave the order.
"Yes, boss."
The security personnel nodded.
The three presidential villas at the Four Seasons Hotel West Lake already had professional security personnel patrolling outside.
After Ye Chen became the hotel owner and moved into the presidential villa, the hotel's senior management immediately added more security personnel to ensure the villa's absolute safety.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that without Ye Chen's permission, not even a fly could get in.
A few minutes later, when Ye Chen returned to the villa's living room, the fat CEO also came in.
"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry I came uninvited."
The chubby boss said with a smile.
The portly boss's name is Meng Deping. He is a wealthy man from Northwest China who recently came to Hangzhou to develop a new business.
"What does Mr. Meng want with me?"
Ye Chen got straight to the point.
"Mr. Ye, you're too kind. You can just call me Lao Meng."
Meng Deping said very respectfully.
"Mr. Ye, I wonder if you like horses?"
Suddenly, Meng Deping changed the subject and asked a pointed question.
"The horse is alright, I guess."
Ye Chen thought for a moment and nodded.
I used to think that riding a horse in period dramas was pretty cool.
That's wonderful.
"Mr. Ye, I have transported a horse for you from the Northwest. It should arrive by tomorrow morning."
Meng Deping said excitedly.
He wanted to come to Hangzhou to develop his career, but he had no connections and almost got scammed last time.
Fortunately, I met Ye Chen.
Because of the scene last time when the dignified Old Master Ning personally went out to greet Ye Chen, Meng Deping was convinced that Ye Chen was an extremely important person.
You must make an effort to befriend, or even curry favor with, others.
Upon returning home, Meng Deping immediately contacted someone to bring over one of his prized horses as a gift for Ye Chen.
"ah?"
Ye Chen was somewhat bewildered.
"Mr. Ye, please don't refuse. This is just a small token of my appreciation, nothing more."
Meng Deping continued:
"If you accept it, it would be an honor for me, Old Meng."
Meng Deping said with great enthusiasm, as if Ye Chen didn't like horses, and he would continue to give other things until Ye Chen accepted them.
"All right."
Ye Chen nodded. "It's just a horse."
"By the way, what kind of horse?"
Ye Chen asked subconsciously.
"It's not a particularly valuable horse, just an Akhal-Teke horse that I brought from abroad."
Meng Deping explained.
"A Ferghana horse?"
Ye Chen was even more surprised; that was the legendary "divine steed".
"Mr. Ye, you may not know this, but although Akhal-Teke horses are rare in China, there are still some abroad."
"It's possible to get it by spending some money."
Meng Deping said.
Just because he has no connections in Hangzhou doesn't mean he has no connections in the Northwest region.
"Moreover, a Ferghana horse isn't expensive, only a little over 100 million."
Meng Deping continued arrogantly.
There are very few Akhal-Teke horses in China; most are imported from abroad.
Previously, Qinhan Equestrian Club, one of the most prestigious equestrian clubs in China, spent a fortune to import several Akhal-Teke horses from abroad in order to enhance its prestige.
The Akhal-Teke horse that Meng Deping gave to Ye Chen was originally sold for over 100 million overseas.
Then, after bringing it to China, the various expenses added up to nearly 200 million yuan.
This is more expensive than countless top-of-the-line supercars.
And this isn't even the most expensive horse in the world.
"Is there something you need in Hangzhou, Mr. Meng?"
Ye Chen asked.
Meng Deping came to deliver gifts, there must be something going on.
"Hehe, Mr. Ye, it's really nothing serious."
"Old Meng wants to invest in Hangzhou, but he has no connections and no good projects."
Meng Deping spoke the truth.
"If Mr. Ye has any information in this regard, please recommend it to me."
"I'm new to Hangzhou too, and I don't know many people."
Ye Chen explained.
"I can only keep an eye out for you."
"That's enough, that's enough."
Meng Deping nodded. If Mr. Ye could help him keep an eye out, and he could get on Mr. Ye's good side, would he still have to worry about not having connections?
Actually, whether or not I invest in Hangzhou this time is irrelevant; the huge gain is simply being able to make the acquaintance of Mr. Ye.
"By the way, Mr. Ye, that Akhal-Teke horse will be delivered tomorrow. Should it be sent to your villa?"
