Chapter 214 Shi Family's Birthday Banquet
Chapter 214: The Shi Family’s Birthday Banquet
The former historians were only a little famous family in Shanghai at most. Before liberation, they opened a small pawn shop. In that era, people often had no food and clothing, so the pawn shop business was extremely hot. Although the scale was small, there were definitely many treasures he received.
After being laid out for a long time, there will always be times when you can encounter coincidences.
For example, the Shi family at that time received an antique at a very low price. The parents of the Shi family did not find the real value of the antique. As a result, the Shi family's children who returned from studying abroad, the grandfather, who is the current head of the Shi family, discovered the real value of the antique.
The people who fired this antique at that time had already died in the war, and their descendants did not have the notes for this antique at that time. Therefore, this expensive antique became a pot of gold that the Shi family made unexpectedly.
The Shi family sold this antique at a very high price. After getting a lot of money, their lives became very abundant in an instant.
However, no matter how expensive an antique is, it cannot make the Shi family a wealthy family. Although the Shi family's children are not losers, they have no management concept.
Fortunately, he was steady and with these family backgrounds, the pawnshop business finally saved a small amount of money. It was not until the current patriarch of the Shi family, Shi Rendi, that the Shi family became a famous wealthy family in Shanghai.
The reason was nothing special. After Shi Rendi took over the Shi family, he looked keenly at the logistics industry that had just emerged in China. In addition, he had a small amount of money at home, so he could open a good logistics company. Therefore, Shi Rendi refused to sell the small pawnshop that could only save his family's fortune and joined the tide of the logistics industry.
With tough measures, Shi Rendi seized various opportunities along the way and turned Shi's International Logistics Company into the largest logistics company in China. Not only did he travel across every existing land in mainland China, the world's logistics network was also distributed abroad.
To this day, the Shi family is no longer a small family with only a small pawn shop in Shanghai.
Instead, a logistics company with a huge logistics network has squeezed into the ranks of wealthy families in Shanghai and even the country. It has fixed assets of more than one billion yuan, and Shi Rendi is a regular on the list.
So I have to say that Shi Rendi is a talent!
Today is the 18th birthday of the little princess of the Shi family, Shi Rendi's youngest daughter. Shi Rendi held a grand banquet to invite well-known wealthy families and upper-class people in Shanghai. There were dozens of Everbright stars. Under such a sumptuous banquet, Shi Rendi was glorious and full of joy.
Of course, in Shanghai, no one dared to give face to the Zhou family. Shi Rendi naturally sent an invitation to the Zhou family, but according to the Zhou family's style, he naturally ignored it.
Zhou Zhenhua did not represent the Zhou family, and his identity as Stelyi's teacher.
So, when Zhou Zhenhua drove his luxury sports car, Bugatti Veyron, and brought Hu Tao, a senior rising Shanghai government official, to the banquet venue. Except for someone who was surprised that Zhou Zhenhua's car was quite luxurious, no one thought that what he was doing was the only son of the Zhou family. Even Zhou Zhenhua, who made the upper class crazy, hoped that even the slightest relationship could be involved in Zhou Zhenhua.
"You should be able to tell me now, why are you going to attend the Shijia banquet?"
Sitting in the car, Zhou Zhenhua did not go down as soon as possible. Instead, he smoked a cigarette slightly and asked Hu Tao beside him.
Hu Tao was still wearing a police uniform with a very natural expression on his face. He threw a bag to Zhou Zhenhua and said, "I recently investigated a famous fraudster. Today he also attended this banquet. I hope to have a close contact with him and have more talk when I have time."
Zhou Zhenhua nodded, opened the information bag slightly and looked at it. After the four people above me remembered it in their minds, they closed the information casually and said, "You mean, someone has set his sights on the Shi family."
"I don't know!" Hu Tao replied very simply: "This person is very powerful, so the superiors asked me to handle the case personally. Alas, don't think I am the deputy director now, I still have to work myself. Old, no longer can!"
"Go and go, isn't it just a deputy director who broke the law? You are happy and proud." Zhou Zhenhua despised Hu Tao and said, "If there is any problem, I hope to delay the processing. I don't want to destroy my student's birthday party, you understand."
"I can see the occasion clearly. Look at this place. Can I offend you?" Hu Tao answered naturally and rationally.
"I dare to provoke him, what else do you dare not provoke him!" Zhou Zhenhua's words made Hu Tao unable to tell whether this was praising him or belittle him.
But the nonsense was almost done, and Zhou Zhenhua and Hu Tao were not going to stay in the car. They opened the car door casually, and Zhou Zhenhua threw the key to a waiter, and walked into the inside with Hu Tao.
But this waiter was stupid
The Bugatti Veyron is worth 25 million US dollars. Those who take such a car must at least be a noble man. And those around him must be a big star at the very least.
But the waiter was surprised to find that the one who walked out of the car was an extremely young boy and a people's policeman.
The policeman was fine, with a righteous face and looked particularly capable. But the boy was a little too weird.
When I came to the banquet, I was wearing a formal outfit. But this guy was wearing a leather jacket. Although it looked very expensive, it was only tens of thousands of pieces. The sweater was very ordinary, and it seemed to be hand-fabricated. The lower body was just a pair of jeans worth thousands of pieces. This outfit was very expensive for ordinary people. But for those who came tonight, it was too ordinary and simple.
Not to mention anything else, have anyone seen a wealthy family’s birthday party wearing a jacket?
Another thing that makes people doubt the most is that two big men walked out of such a luxurious car. And this man is still a policeman. Didn’t the two of them bear the back?
When the waiter was yelling Zhou Zhenhua so maliciously, Zhou Zhenhua and Hu Tao were already holding gifts and handing in invitations and entering the banquet hall.
I was outside just now, but once I entered here, it was a bit too eye-catching.
One is a policeman and the other is wearing a leather jacket.
People who don’t know thought these two people were here to find trouble.
Some small families and small rich people who don’t know the wealthy courtyard immediately said with contempt: “Then two people who don’t understand the rules.”
Those who recognized Zhou Zhenhua were immediately filled with a terrible smile on their faces. One of them seemed to be deliberately watching a joke and deliberately said in his ears: "He is the only species in the Zhou family!"
The little rich man's face turned pale, and his legs were trembling and almost spread to the ground.
"Hey, the people around you seem to have a lot of opinions about us!" Hu Tao seemed to notice the strange gaze of everyone around him, and immediately asked Zhou Zhenhua.
Bored and aimlessly looking around, Zhou Zhenhua nodded as if nothing had happened. At this time, several wealthy families who knew Zhou Zhenhua came directly, including the real estate snorted in front of Zhou's father last time. Zhou Zhenhua had forgotten what the other party's surname was. As for the name, Zhou Zhenhua had never heard of it from the beginning.
"Haha, I didn't expect that Zhou Xianniang would come to my daughter's birthday party, which really made Shi's face shine!" While paying attention, I saw a middle-aged man with a very temperament, smart look, and gray hair came over. After smiling at Zhou Zhenhua with a very kind smile, he turned to look at Hu Tao and asked, "This is it."
"Uncle Shi, this is my good brother Hu Tao!" Zhou Zhenhua said boredly. If it weren't for Steve's sake, he wouldn't have answered or talked nonsense.
"Oh, it turns out to be a new high-ranking Shanghai executive, Director Hu Tao, the police star with a promising future!" Shi Rendi seemed to have guessed Hu Tao's identity, and after being confirmed by Zhou Zhenhua, he immediately politely and politely. The relationship between Hu Tao and Zhou Zhenhua is no longer a secret for these well-informed businessmen.
"Hello, Mr. Shi. I wish your daughter a happy birthday first. The little gift is not respectful." Hu Tao responded naturally, then took out a large teddy bear doll: "I am a working class, and even if it is too expensive, I am not as precious as everyone!"
"There is there!" Shi Rendi naturally accepted the doll more than one meter tall: "It is a great honor for Shi to meet a hero like Director Hu."
The two of them were talking lies here with their eyes open. Don’t be aware that Hu Tao is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau of Pudong New Area. No matter how awesome he is, he is still a second-in-command. Don’t forget that there is a director above. So even if Hu Tao has a bright future, it will not be so concerned.
In a word, to put it bluntly, it is all because of Zhou Zhenhua and the Zhou family.
Of course, this is the view of outsiders, and Zhou Zhenhua is actually very clear in his heart. With Hu Tao's ability, it is too insignificant to be a deputy director. But is it obvious that Hu Tao himself doesn't care.
But he was scared to Shi Rendi now, and Zhou Zhenhua was not used to it. Seeing that the nobles wanted to push their daughter here again, Zhou Zhenhua immediately found an excuse to let go. But these nobles would let Zhou Zhenhua go. Seeing that Zhou Zhenhua was about to fall into the siege again, Zhou Zhenhua's students finally arrived to rescue the poor teacher Zhou.
Without the harassment of women, Teacher Xiao Zhou and his students were chatting and eating happily. Before they knew it, in the cheerful atmosphere, all the lights in the entire banquet hall were suddenly gone.
The spotlight suddenly lit up, and the protagonist tonight - appeared!
