Chapter 301 Hong Kong City Gu Family
Xu Youyou had a good sleep.
Lu Jingyao has arranged the company's affairs almost completely in the past year. Now he only handles the big matters remotely, and he doesn't have to do other small things personally. He also has the leisure time to spend a leisurely life with Xu Youyou.
The two did not have breakfast in the Lu family villa. Instead, they went to a famous tea restaurant in a certain Hong Kong city to have breakfast with a large group of bodyguards.
“I saw it praised online as being beyond compare, but in reality, it seems not as good as what your chef cooks at home.” Xu Youyou was very disappointed.
The price of this restaurant was not low, but the taste did not meet her expectations.
Lu Jingyao said: "I'm used to eating home-cooked food, so I come out to try it occasionally, just to try something new."
Xu Youyou didn't know that the reason why she was like this was purely because her current food, clothing, housing and transportation needs had almost reached the limit.
In other words, she has tasted the best of everything, and even regards the best things as ordinary daily life, so she is disenchanted by the good things in the eyes of ordinary people.
Whether it is the chef hired by Xu Youyou's home in Shanghai or the chef in the Lu family villa, they are almost all at the state banquet level. How could the meals they cook be worse than those in Michelin restaurants outside?
The whole place was reserved for this meal. Xu Youyou and Lu Jingyao thought the food was just average, but the bodyguards were very satisfied. Even after they had finished their meal and got into the car, they were still talking about how delicious the morning tea was.
“Freshly made morning tea is simply better than pre-prepared dishes.”
Xu Youyou heard a bodyguard sigh like this.
"There's another advantage to eating out. At least everyone who follows you will enjoy the meal." Xu Youyou said to Lu Jingyao with a smile.
Xu Youyou went shopping for two more days, and during the shopping trip she gave Liu Xiangyi a lot of gifts.
Liu Xiangyi felt that although she was single, she was like being in a relationship and received surprise gifts from her boss every day.
When the antique exchange fair opened, Liu Xiangyi took stock and found that the gifts she had received from Xu Youyou in the past few days were worth 700,000 or 800,000 yuan. This amount of money was enough to make an adult dizzy.
If Liu Xiangyi hadn't seen Xu Fang receive the same gift from the boss as she did, she would have thought that the boss had some ulterior motives towards her.
"Boss, won't you let Sister Xu accompany you today? Just let me follow you?" Liu Xiangyi asked.
For this antique exchange meeting, each invitation letter could only bring one accompanying person. After hesitating for a moment between Liu Xiangyi and Xu Fang, Xu Youyou chose Liu Xiangyi.
As for Xu Fang, when she was sent by Xu Youyou to arrange the transportation of the Lamborghini back to Shanghai, there were many procedures to go through before the car could be loaded onto the ship and shipped into the mainland. Xu Fang was considered to be experienced in this kind of shipping.
"You just need to follow me, you don't need to do anything else." Xu Youyou said softly.
When Liu Xiangyi heard this, her face did not relax at all. After all, she had seen how Xu Fang worked during these days of getting along with him, and she could be said to have become more cautious.
She originally thought Xu Fang was good enough, but after meeting Assistant Liu, she realized what a truly all-round assistant is.
Whether compared with Assistant Liu or Xu Fang, Liu Xiangyi felt that he was far behind.
"I'm afraid I'll hold them back..." Liu Xiangyi said.
Xu Youyou immediately encouraged: "Your humble attitude is already very rare. I won't say that you can do better than Xu Fang, but if you maintain this attitude, at least it won't do any harm."
Liu Xiangyi said, "Boss, you have so many talented people around you, and everyone is more capable than me. I'm really afraid that I won't be able to do things well and cause trouble for everyone."
Xu Youyou patted her shoulder and couldn't help thinking that this little koi must have encountered too many strange things in recent years, which made her extremely unconfident.
"You have to think about it. You have to take on as much responsibility as you have to. You only have so much work to do. Even if you mess up, how big of a mistake can you make?"
Listening to Xu Youyou's words, Liu Xiangyi's body suddenly stood up straight. She didn't believe the praise about her ability to do things before, but now that Xu Youyou said this, she suddenly relaxed.
I even vaguely feel that I am not like an assistant, but more like a mascot following the boss?
As soon as this thought flashed through Liu Xiangyi's mind, he immediately shook his head, wondering which mascot would be so deeply involved in a scam that he almost lost his life?
The organizer of this antique exchange fair is a wealthy local tycoon in Gangcheng. The venue is a manor. The invitation letters are strictly checked before entering the venue, and no unrelated person will be allowed in.
Xu Youyou couldn't help but think of the exchange meeting in the capital, and asked Lu Jingyao: "Are the service personnel this time children from various families again?"
Lu Jingyao shook his head: "No, the organizer has a team of conference staff specifically responsible for the exchange meeting. All of them have been background checked to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
After Lu Jingyao's explanation, Xu Youyou roughly understood that this exchange meeting, although called an exchange, was more like an auction. And unlike the temporary registration of auction items in the capital, all the auction items this time were registered at least half a month in advance, and each auction item went through at least three rounds of appraisal.
The so-called authentic work of Wang Xizhi was a rumor deliberately spread by the organizer after three rounds of appraisal.
As soon as they entered, Xu Youyou saw He Zhilan.
They had agreed to meet at the Hong Kong City Exchange Conference. This time, He Zhilan did not bring his sister, but an elderly man.
When the old man saw Xu Youyou, he was particularly enthusiastic: "Miss Xu, I have heard a lot about you."
Xu Youyou looked at the other party's enthusiasm and felt a little confused for a moment.
He Zhilan said helplessly: "This is my grandfather. He didn't dare to go to Shanghai to disturb you, but he really wanted to meet you, so he came with me."
Xu Youyou looked at the old man's excitement and felt a little embarrassed. If it weren't for the system's prompt, she would not have bought the He family's Qilin jade pendant. She never thought that she was a particularly capable person. Faced with Grandpa He's attitude, she naturally felt like she was stealing the credit for someone else's work.
Although Mr. He was excited, he also knew that he was old and there was a generation gap between him and young people. After looking at Xu Youyou a few more times, he made an excuse to greet an old friend and left He Zhilan to accompany Xu Youyou.
"Will I buy fake goods in this situation?" Xu Youyou suddenly had a thought.
You should know that even in the big auctions of top auctions, you may encounter fakes.
Lu Jingyao said: "It's hard to say for sure. After all, some treasures don't have a definite origin."
He Zhilan on the side said, "Miss Xu, if you buy fakes at other exchanges, you will suffer in silence. At the Hong Kong City Gu family exchange, if you buy fakes, they will compensate you in full."
Xu Youyou frowned slightly, thinking that this background sounded familiar: "The organizer's surname is Gu? The Hong Kong Gu family?"
