Richest Man: Getting 7 Billion Red Pockets To Start With-Chapter 46
46 A Wine Dispenser; A Waste
Sitting in the private room, he looked down at the lanterns hanging high in the lobby of Xinyue Hotel. The exquisite carvings and ancient decorations gave him a different feeling.
“Are there any specific rules for the auction here?” Lin Fan asked.
“There aren’t many rules. After you take a fancy to an item, you just have to raise the paddle on the table and increase the price,” Liu Yuhang said.
“However, there is one thing you need to know,” Liu Yuhang continued. “Before the auction, you must have enough money. Otherwise, the consequences will be severe.”
This was no doubt a rule set for those who bid randomly.
Lin Fan nodded his head.
The two chatted for a while until Liu Yuhang’s stomach suddenly felt uncomfortable, so he left the room.
It was 12:00 PM.
The phone in Lin Fan’s pocket vibrated.
Red packets had appeared!
[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 10 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 10,000 yuan.]
...
[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received one bottle of Han Emperor Maotai.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received three yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 2,000 yuan.] 𝗳𝙧𝘦𝒆𝑤𝙚𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃ℯ𝑙. 𝐜𝐨𝑚
This time, Lin Fan received a total of 30,000 yuan and a bottle of Han Emperor Maotai.
When Lin Fan raised his head, a bottle of Han Emperor Maotai, which was carved with an exquisite dragon pattern and looked like a jade seal, appeared in front of him.
At the same time, Liu Yuhang pushed the door open and returned to the room.
He looked at the weirdly-shaped Han Emperor Maotai on the table and asked, “Brother Lin Fan, what’s this?”
“Wine, fine wine! Do you want to try it?” Lin Fan said.
“Fine wine? Of course, I have to taste it! Just by looking at the packaging, I can tell that the taste is definitely not bad!” Liu Yuhang licked his lips and said excitedly.
Obviously, he was also a person who liked wine.
Lin Fan picked up the bottle and was about to pour it into the glass in front of him.
“Brother Lin Fan, let’s pour the wine into the wine dispenser first,” Liu Yuhang said.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Fan poured the wine into the wine dispenser.
Immediately, a strong wine fragrance filled the entire private room.
Liu Yuhang said, “What a fragrant wine! And the design is so beautiful!”
Liu Yuhang could not help but gulp.
Lin Fan looked at his excited expression and immediately filled his glass.
Liu Yuhang did not hold back and finished the drink in one gulp. He praised, “Good wine, good wine!”
Lin Fan took a sip as well. After closing his eyes, he nodded his head.
At this moment, a white-haired old man in a Tang suit and a tall beauty happened to pass by the private room.
The old man sniffed and let out a soft sound.
After a slight pause, he knocked on the door.
Liu Yuhang, who was enjoying the wine, asked, “Do we still have any dishes that haven’t been served?”
“They should all be here,” Lin Fan said.
“Please come in.” Liu Yuhang frowned.
When he saw that it was an old man and a beautiful lady, Lin Fan’s face was filled with doubt.
Liu Yuhang’s mouth was half-open, and he was completely stunned.
“I’m sorry to have disturbed your meal,” the old man said apologetically.
When Liu Yuhang heard the old man’s voice, he slowly closed his mouth and said, “No... You’re not disturbing us. Are you Elder Zhou?”
“Oh? You know me?” the old man said.
Liu Yuhang’s face was filled with respect when he heard the old man’s answer.
“Hello, Mr. Zhou. I am Liu Sifang’s grandson, Liu Yuhang. I’ve followed my grandfather to the Northern Chamber of Commerce to meet you once,” Liu Yuhang said.
Elder Zhou recalled for a moment. “So you’re Liu Sifang’s grandson. Your grandfather’s medical skills are very good. He even treated my illness in the past. The next time you see your grandfather, please send my regards.”
“Grandpa will be very happy to hear this,” Liu Yuhang said sincerely.
If the Liu family was one of the top families in Jiangbei, then the Zhou family was one of the top families in the entire country!
Elder Zhou, Zhou Guotao, was the backbone of the Zhou family!
One could only imagine how noble his status was.
It was no wonder Liu Yuhang was so respectful.
It was like a commoner meeting a noble.
“Actually, the reason why I took the liberty to come in was that I was attracted by the wine’s fragrance.” As Zhou Guotao spoke, his turbid eyes fell directly on the Han Emperor Maotai. A hint of reminiscence appeared on his old face.
Liu Yuhang opened his mouth, but no words came out.
...
After all, the Han Emperor Maotai was not his.
Liu Yuhang did not say anything and immediately gave the whole bottle to Zhou Guotao.
Fine wine was indeed delicious.
However, if he could use this opportunity to befriend Zhou Guotao, it would definitely be a great thing.
The problem was that the Han Emperor Maotai was Lin Fan’s, so he could not say much.
“Old man, are you also a wine lover?” Lin Fan asked.
“I’ve drunk it before. The taste is still fresh in my memory!” Zhou Guotao said.
Lin Fan nodded. “We were in the midst of eating. If you don’t mind, why don’t you sit down and join us?”
“Then I won’t be polite.” Zhou Guotao laughed.
The beauty standing beside him reminded him, “Grandpa, your body...”
“It’s fine. It’s just a little wine. It’s no big deal,” Zhou Guotao said.
...
After he finished speaking, he sat down.
When Zhou Guotao saw the wine dispenser, he frowned and said, “You’re drinking the Han Emperor Maotai that’s worth more than 30 million yuan and you’re using a wine dispenser? It’s a bit of a waste.”
Thump!
Liu Yuhang’s hands trembled when he heard Zhou Guotao’s words. His chopsticks fell to the ground.
He stuttered, “E-Elder Zhou... How much did you say the wine cost?”
Zhou Guotao said, “There were only 10 bottles of Han Emperor Maotai produced in 1992. According to statistics, a total of nine bottles of Han Emperor Maotai have been drunk so far.
“The last bottle was sold at an auction for 32 million two years ago.
“In front of you should be the only bottle of Han Emperor Maotai left in this world. If it were to be auctioned, the price would be at least 40 million!”
If it was someone else who had said that it was worth more than 40 million, Liu Yuhang would have spat in their face.
However, the person who said that was the backbone of the Zhou family, Zhou Guotao!
That meant... it was the truth!
Gulp!
Liu Yuhang swallowed hard, his face full of shock.
A bottle of wine was worth more than 40 million yuan.
He had just drunk a glass of it. How much was that? 500,000? One million?
How much was the remaining wine in the wine dispenser? 300,000? 500,000?
Even though Liu Yuhang was the young master of Liu Medical, he did not dare to spend like this.
Then, Liu Yuhang’s gaze returned to Lin Fan.
Initially, Liu Yuhang thought that he was starting to understand Lin Fan.
From the looks of it now, he might only know the tip of the iceberg of Lin Fan’s abilities.
He took out a bottle of Han Emperor Maotai that was worth more than 40 million yuan, and Lin Fan... What was his identity?
