Chapter 116: Father Ying: My younger brother, the Patriarch of the Laurent Family



Not a person's name, nor an address.

But, this is a name that is enough to shock all the chaebols and families in the world.

In China, there may be people who don’t know the Fu family and the Zhong family, there may be people who don’t know the Nie family and the Mu family, but there is definitely no one who doesn’t know the Laurent family.

Because the only international bank with operations all over the world is owned by the Laurent family.

Laurent Bank's daily cash flow is far more than that of other banks in a year.

It almost monopolizes the global economy.

No one knows how rich the Laurent family is, but it is certain that being rich enough to rival a country is an understatement.

The sender's address on the box made Mr. Zhong and Butler Zhong fall into silence.

After a while, Mr. Zhong raised his head and broke the silence: "The Laurent family... is it the one we know?"

Butler Zhong seemed to be still in a dream. He was at a loss: "No... can't it be possible?"

What is the existence of the Laurent family?

The world's first family!

Not to mention the Zhong Group, even if all the wealthy families in the imperial capital were combined, they would not be able to compare to the Laurent family.

The Laurent family personally sent things to the Zhong family?

It would be a joke if it got out.

Mr. Zhong also thought it was unlikely. He frowned and looked again, as if he had discovered something: "Wait."

He took out his cell phone and typed the words "Laurent Family" into the web search bar.

The first thing that comes out is the history of the Laurent family's rise to wealth.

The Laurent family rose to prominence in the 15th century and was one of the most powerful and prestigious families in Europe until the mid-18th century, producing many talented people.

The Laurent family ruled the European city of Florence for three centuries, and during these hundreds of years, the Laurent family also sponsored many literary and artistic masters.

Chino Von, a name that is well-known throughout the world, has the support of the Laurent family.

If there were no Laurent family, no matter how talented Chino Feng was, he would still be buried.

But for some unknown reason, in the mid-to-late 18th century, the Laurent family suddenly declined overnight and almost disappeared.

It was only in the past hundred years that this ancient family reappeared in the public eye.

It quickly took control of the global economic lifeline and expanded Laurent Bank across the world.

The rise and fall of the Laurent family can be said to be an unsolved mystery to this day.

Mr. Zhong is also very familiar with things like this that can be learned in history textbooks, so there is no need to read more.

He flipped through the encyclopedia's photo album and finally found the picture he was looking for.

The picture shows a golden throne with a crown.

The sacred splendor is inviolable, demonstrating the power and prosperity of the world's first family.

This is the coat of arms of the Laurent family.

It is exactly the same pattern that Mr. Zhong saw on the box.

The Laurent family's industries and influence are spread all over the world, and no one dares to impersonate the Laurent family.

Because once you impersonate, it will only take a few minutes to be caught.

Once you are caught, you will have no chance of survival no matter where you are.

Mr. Zhong was silent again, muttering: "It really was sent by the Laurent family."

This world is really hell.

But why would the Laurent family send them something?

"Old man." Butler Zhong picked up a card, "Here is another letter card."

"Give it here." Mr. Zhong took it, looked at it, thought about it seriously, and asked, "Is there anyone here who wants to order Coke Milk Tea French Fries?"

No, the point is who would come up with a name like “Cola Milk Tea French Fries”?

How edible is this?

He must be a little fat boy.

With doubts, Mr. Zhong continued reading.

There is beautiful handwriting on the letter card.

[To my dear Coke Milk Tea French Fries, the king of kings ice jadeite you asked for has been delivered. This is a little gift from my master.

If possible, I hope to get to know you and look forward to seeing you in Florence one day in the future.

By then, my host will drink and chat with you. 】

Signed by Job Laurent.

Obviously he should be a servant of the Laurent family.

"Ice jadeite?" Mr. Zhong was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly became serious, "Is this ice jadeite?"

Butler Zhong was also stunned: "Master, my cousin seemed to say that there will be a courier today, could it be..."

There was a knock on the door at this moment.

The girl walked in and nodded to the two of them: "Grandpa, butler grandpa."

"Oh, Zijin." Mr. Zhong pushed his reading glasses and waved, "Come and see if this is your package."

Hearing this, Ying Zijin took a look at the box that was packed so ostentatiously: "..."

The style hasn't changed much compared to before.

She naturally knew that the bounty she had issued was taken up by the Laurent family.

Since the Laurent family accepted the bounty, other users naturally would not compete for it.

Although many bigwigs in the hidden section will deliberately hide their identities, the Laurent family is the only one that does not.

After all, someone asked him to keep a low profile, but he couldn't do it.

The Laurent family didn't ask for the reward amount she posted, so she didn't give it.

It was rare that the man who owed her gold was so generous.

"It's mine." Ying Zijin nodded slightly, "Thank you, Grandpa, for signing for me."

"What are you thanking me for?" Mr. Zhong waved his hand and asked a question he was very curious about, "Zijin, do you know the... the person in charge of the Laurent family?"

"My Master" was written on the letter card.

It goes without saying who this owner is.

Ying Zijin was silent for a moment: "Aren't they doing business? As long as you have money, you can buy it."

After thinking about it carefully, Mr. Zhong agreed.

There is such a rumor.

The man in power in the Laurent family values ​​money more than anything else and is the kind of person who can only fall asleep lying on gold.

He will naturally be happy if someone gives him money.

Thinking of this, Mr. Zhong also let out a long sigh of relief.

So that's how it is.

He was really scared to death. He thought his granddaughter was so powerful that she could infiltrate the Laurent family.

Come to think of it, the Laurent family’s base is far away in Florence, and it’s unknown how far away it is from China.

Mr. Zhong thought of another question and hesitated: "But what about this ice jadeite?"

"I can't find the Ten Directions Realm now." Ying Zijin said lightly, "I'm thinking of carving a new one."

"Re-carve?" Master Zhong was stunned. "How to carve?"

"Yeah, whatever."

“…”

Mr. Zhong was upset.

His granddaughter played a joke on him again.

"Don't worry, Grandpa." Ying Zijin picked up the box and walked up the stairs. "In four days, the Ten Directions Realm will have it."

Mr. Zhong was really confused.

After a while, he suddenly came back to his senses.

It would take two adult men to move the box, so how could his granddaughter carry it away with one hand?

——

Second floor, inside the room.

Ying Zijin opened the box and moved the jadeite raw stones inside to the tool table.

Ice jade is the king of jade, and is transparent in color, hence the name "ice jade".

The fewer impurities in the raw stone, the better the texture.

This piece of icy jade does not have even a trace of impurities and is more precious than the raw stone used in the real Ten Directions Realm.

Ying Zijin took out the carving knife and other carving tools that he had prepared long ago from his backpack.

She didn't use a ruler, but measured the icy jade directly with her naked eyes.

The reason why the Ten Directions Realm has become the treasure of the Jade Studio is that the sculptor carved eighty-eight Buddhas on this not-so-big piece of raw stone.

Moreover, each one is lifelike and has a different expression.

Ying Zijin asked Mr. Zhong.

Fifty years ago, the jade carving master took three months to complete the carving of the Ten Directions Realm, and he did so with the help of several apprentices.

No wonder the DK Group was so sure that they couldn’t get the Ten Directions Realm back after stealing it.

It should be possible to create a new Ten Directions Realm in four days.

She actually didn't learn Chinese carving techniques. She learned them in Europe, but they are basically the same.

Ying Zijin lowered his eyelashes, picked up the engraving pen, and according to the picture, began to draw the shapes of the eighty-eight Buddhas on the jadeite raw stone.

——

Because he had to carve the jadeite raw stone overnight, Ying Zijin took a week off from school.

In fact, as a student in Class 19, a special class, it is normal not to ask for leave.

As a result, when the dean of studies received the leave application, he was shocked and ran to the principal's office to verify it.

He handed over the leave application: "Principal, do you think this is true?"

"Oh, this." The principal didn't answer, but just looked at it and said, "It's true. Student Ying also asked for leave for me, so let's follow the rules."

He Xun was standing nearby. He had been discussing the internal interview at Norton University with the president. He also looked over when he heard this.

As the exam is approaching, I would like to take a week off.

That’s all, and you still want to pass one of the midterm exams?
