Lan Guoer was about to say no when she heard Sister Fang laughing beside her.
"Young Master Zhou is really thoughtful! If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten that this outfit is indeed a bit inappropriate for the cocktail party later."
Lan Guoer didn't want to attend the upcoming cocktail party at all!
Compared to the cocktail party, she was more interested in Dawang Mountain.
Thinking of the other purpose of this trip, she couldn't help but stand on tiptoe, shielding her eyes from the dazzling afternoon sun with her hands, and looking into the distance.
Although the Dawang Mountain area is not as big as the rolling hills in my hometown in Heilongjiang Province, it is not small in the area of Gangcheng!
The surrounding infrastructure and environment also look very good. It would be great whether it is developed into a high-end villa area or a resort hotel in the future.
As she moved, the diamond ring on her ring finger sparkled with colorful light under the direct sunlight, making it look even more luxurious and dazzling.
"Oh my goodness! My old eyes are almost blinded by it!" Sister Fang couldn't help but joked.
Sister Fang observed clearly whether Lan Guoer was wearing any jewelry when she came, so what was there to be confused about when she saw the diamond ring on her hand!
"Let me see!" Sister Fang said, holding her finger, her eyes full of amazement.
"Pink diamonds are rare! This one is at least fourteen or fifteen carats, and these designs look like they were made by a famous artist! Wow! I used to think men in their profession were so methodical and boring, but I didn't expect your man to be so interesting. And he's so generous!"
Then he called to Mr. Zhou who was standing beside him, "Mr. Zhou, my family has a jewelry business. Can you give me an estimate of the price of this ring?"
Zhou Jingrui naturally noticed the ring on Lan Guoer's slender finger, but he deliberately avoided it to hide the bitterness in his heart.
Who would have thought that his aunt was so clueless and asked him to make an estimate!
"About 1.6 to 1.7 million! It might go up a lot more if we auction it off!"
He didn't even look at the two of them and replied calmly.
"One million, six hundred or seven hundred thousand! That's not too bad!" Sister Fang didn't know what to say!
As the concubine of the Zhou family, she has a lot of valuable jewelry, but there are not many pieces that cost more than six figures!
This one of hers is almost half of hers!
Lan Guoer didn't have much idea about the consumption level in Hong Kong at that time. She thought that the diamond ring would be worth around 600,000 or 700,000 at most, but she never expected it to be as much as 1.6 or 1.7 million!
You have to know that in this era, this amount of money is definitely a huge sum of money, not to mention in China, even in developed Western countries!
What on earth did that man do to make such a huge sum of money in just over a month?!
Lan Guoer couldn't wait to catch him and ask him for the truth!
Just looking at the speed at which he makes money, it's even faster than even her, a time traveler from the future. She had previously vowed that he could focus on his career and she would support the family!
Now it seems...she completely underestimated others!
She couldn't help but nod secretly in her heart. Just based on this man's ability to make money, she still had to keep a close eye on him! Otherwise, the loss would be really huge!
The cocktail party began. Lan Guoer saw that Sister Fang was busy with socializing. She was not very interested in such occasions, so she greeted her and said that she wanted to go for a walk in the mountains.
Sister Shanfang had been there many times before and didn't think there was any danger, but she still arranged for her bodyguards to go with her just in case.
Ever since she saw Zhou Ershao putting clothes on Lan Guoer, Song Feifei felt deeply threatened.
So ever since Lan Guoer came back after changing her clothes, she has been following Zhou Ershao closely, even wanting to follow him to the bathroom.
Young Master Zhou was really helpless under her stare, and could only greet everyone present one by one according to the procedure. When he saw key figures, he would chat with them for a few more words in order to meet the needs of future tasks.
Of course, he did not miss any of Lan Guoer's moves.
Seeing Lan Guoer walking up the mountain with a group of bodyguards, he probably guessed what she was thinking.
Ever since he learned that the map from a hundred years ago pointed to Dawang Mountain, he had explored the mountain more than once after arriving in Hong Kong. He even mobilized the little guys in the mountains to help with the exploration, but in the end he found nothing unusual.
This made him doubt the true meaning of the map!
Worried that his wife would be in danger when going into the mountains, he looked at the sparrow pecking at food on the grass, his pupils slightly constricted, and gave it an order to help keep an eye on her.
The little sparrow flapped its wings and flew obediently into the forest even though it was still hungry.
As soon as Lan Guoer entered the mountain, she took advantage of everyone's inattention and released the Saker Falcon in the space.
Although the little guy likes the spiritual energy in the space, it is still necessary to come out and get some fresh air at the right time.
This place is lush and green, a great place to get out and relax, and also to explore the wonders of the mountain.
Accompanied by a long cry that broke through the air, the little Saker Falcon soared into the sky.
"Is that... a Saker Falcon?" A bodyguard with the darkest face couldn't help but exclaimed!
"If we could catch this, it would be worth a fortune! I heard that the boss of the Guitou Gang has been looking for this thing and threatened to pay six figures for anyone who catches it!"
"Let's just think about it!" Another bodyguard sneered.
"How could this guy be so easy to catch? Didn't you see how fast he was? He disappeared in the blink of an eye. You didn't even get a good look at him, and you're still thinking of catching him! That's a joke!"
But then again, no matter how hard it is to catch, it's just an eagle! How can it be worth so much money? Does the boss of the Guitou Gang have too much money to burn? Is he willing to spend hundreds of thousands to buy a bird?
"You don't know this, right?" The black-faced bodyguard raised his chin and put on a mysterious look.
"Looking at you like this, is there any hidden secret here?"
"This is a long story!" The black-faced bodyguard did not keep anyone in suspense and said,
"This all starts with the origins of that gangster boss! I heard that his mother was from the mainland. She couldn't make it in the mainland a few years ago, so she came to Hong Kong alone. The only thing she had was a Saker Falcon.
After coming to Hong Kong, she was able to make a living by performing with the eagle. She also got to know the father of the gangster and eventually gave birth to him.
The family lived a stable life for several years.
But when Hei Lao Da was ten years old, Hei Lao Da's mother took Na Ying to set up a stall on the street and was noticed by Fei Ge's son, a gangster.
The child thought the eagle was interesting and wanted to take it home to raise it.
Seeing that his son liked it, Brother Fei asked his men to take the eagle away without saying a word.
Who knew that although the eagle had an iron chain tied to its feet, it had already recognized its master.
Caught off guard, he pecked out one of Fei Ge's son's eyes!
Brother Fei would not give up! He would shoot the eagle on the spot!
"Black Boss's mother had known the Eagle for many years; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was half her own son. How could she bear to watch him beat the Eagle to death? She immediately rushed over."
At this point, the black-faced bodyguard sighed and kept the topic a secret.
"Guess what happened next?"
