As soon as Mr. Su left, the second elder came outside and asked to see him.
Ma Cen pressed his temple and held the box to let him in.
"Madam, the Second Master has gone to meet the Feng family," the Second Elder reported as soon as he came in, "The Feng family has a batch of spices that are going to be sold, and they are of higher quality than those of the Fragrance Association. If the Second Master gets them, their strength will definitely increase dramatically."
Second Master Su's status in the Su family has been declining, and he has begun to get anxious, so he has been looking for help from other families everywhere, especially the Feng family which has been very popular recently. The second elder advocates that they should not be given even a chance.
"The Feng family has a big appetite. They not only approached him, but also approached the underground auction house and the Fragrance Association to maximize their profits." Ma Cen pressed his hand on the black paper box and shook his head slightly. "We should wait and see what happens. We should maintain cooperation with the Fragrance Association. I have something else to do."
Ma Cen has an agreement with the Perfume Association on spices every year, and he also knows about the Feng family's plans.
"But..." Hearing Ma Cen's words, the second elder opened his mouth, "What do you want?"
"Watching TV series," Ma Cen pointed at the TV and laughed, "Afu's TV series is really well made, and his shooting skills are amazing."
When she mentioned this, the coldness on her face finally lessened a lot.
"Madam, everything on TV is just acting," the second elder couldn't help but say after hearing what Ma Cen said, "If you want to see how to shoot, why not go to a training camp? Anyone you catch will be a gun master."
...
...
When the Second Elder mentioned Meng Fu now, his attitude was completely different, but after listening to Ma Cen's words, he still couldn't help but speak.
Ma Cen said nothing, but just reached out and knocked on the long black box.
As soon as the second elder came in, she put the black paper box in the center.
After asking all the questions, the second elder finally saw the black box in Ma Cen's hand. Perhaps knowing that Ma Cen was deliberately showing off, he politely asked, "What is this?"
Ma Cen glanced at the second elder.
Since you insist on asking——
Then she won't be polite.
"This is the New Year's gift that Afu gave me." Ma Cen said casually.
The second elder whose son is almost 30 and still single: "..."
Ma Cen coughed lightly, and finally opened the lid of the box and showed it to the second elder, "I don't know where to give this child..."
Halfway through his words, Ma Cen got a little stuck.
The box was very cheap. With Ma Cen's status, she had no shortage of gifts. What she received was the thoughtfulness, so she was not curious about what was inside. But Meng Fu actually remembered her and even gave her a New Year gift. Naturally, this was a great surprise to Ma Cen.
I couldn't help but show off to the Second Elder.
Ma Cen took off the lid of the paper box and saw two incense sticks inside.
The incense is a light brown color, so it must be newly made. The smell of the new incense cannot be covered up and can be smelled as soon as the lid is opened.
Ma Cen had originally opened the lid casually. The Second Elder was just jealous that she could receive a gift. As soon as Ma Cen opened it, the two of them instantly smelled the scent of the new fragrance. Even before it was lit, the smell made people feel peaceful.
Ma Cen and the second elder were not ordinary people. Just by smelling the scent, they knew that the quality of the spice was extraordinary.
"This..." The second elder lowered his head and looked at the two incense sticks in the black paper box. He was a little stunned. "Compared with the incense association's spices, these are not much worse. Where did she get them?"
Not only did he have the spice, but he actually gave it to Ma Cen so casually?
There are only a few perfumers in the country, and only a certain amount of perfume is produced every year. The contract signed by the Su family with the Perfume Association is for two batches of goods every year, one at the beginning of the year and one in the middle of the year.
In the past two years, because of the entry into the Federation, a new group of sources have emerged. For example, Su Tian can get five every year, and Ma Cen only gets this much every year.
For the rest, you have to buy them yourself at the auction house or find other black markets. Unless you have a Skynet account, other bulk incense is monopolized by a few major forces.
Therefore, this spice, which is beneficial to people practicing ancient martial arts, is very scarce.
There are only two of them, so it's not a matter of being worth a fortune, but rather a matter of being in short supply.
Hearing the second elder's question, Ma Cen opened his mouth, not knowing what to say at this moment. He just raised his head, looked at the second elder, and murmured: "This, this gift..."
She knew Meng Fu was a star and had very good grades.
Not only did she go to Zhou University to take the independent enrollment examination, but from what Su Xian told her last time, her identity information was also blocked by the president of Zhou University.
But Ma Cen also knew that Meng Fu was from T City.
My ancestors were in business and had nothing to do with the ancient martial arts world.
Little did she know that Meng Fu's gift would turn out to be a huge boon.
Even if you are giving this kind of gift yourself, you should think carefully about it, right?

Upstairs, Xu Ma also knocked on Su Cheng's door and handed the box to Su Cheng: "This is what Su brought back."
"Su Di?" Su Cheng opened the door and took the box. Hearing this, he nodded lightly to Xu Ma, then went back to the room, closed the door, put the box on the table, but did not open it immediately. He went to the table, lit a stick of incense, and then went to take a bath.
It was his birthday today and he received quite a few gifts, most of which he asked Xu Ma to put back into the warehouse.
After taking a shower, he opened the gift box while drying his hair.
Inside was a white porcelain jar.
Jars are marketed with orchid bushes carved on them.
The orchid bushes are realistically carved.
Su Cheng felt that the style of this orchid bush was vaguely familiar.
Su Cheng took a look, took out the ceramic jar and prepared to take a closer look, when a piece of paper next to it fell to the ground.
The paper was folded in half. At this angle, one could vaguely see the horizontal handwriting inside, and the handwriting looked familiar.
Su Cheng paused for a moment, then bent down and picked up the paper. When he unfolded it, he saw two lines of large characters that could be seen through the back of the paper -
Happy Birthday
Meng
