Chapter 399

Lin Wanyu heard Xu Yicheng's vague teasing and said, "That's true. My grandfather also likes antiques, calligraphy and painting when he is old."

Xu Yicheng shook his head: "This is not the same thing. Your grandfather's can only be regarded as a small fight, but Mr. Shen is different. Mr. Shen loves to collect calligraphy and painting, and he is addicted to calligraphy and painting as his life."

"No, Mr. Shen will take the opportunity of this art exhibition today to collect paintings from outstanding painters across the city and select the best works of the year."

"Whoever's work catches the eye of Mr. Shen will get an opportunity to enter Shen's mansion and have dinner with Mr. Shen."

The more Lin Wanyu listened, the more confused she became. Although she had lived in the provincial capital for a while, she didn't know much about the things going on among the core power circles.

"What is Shen Gongguan?" Lin Wanyu frowned and asked doubtfully, "Why have I never heard of it?"

Xu Yicheng smiled proudly: "This is the name in the inner circle. In fact, it is the century-old Mansion of All Nations. It was once a place where the provincial capital received heavyweight VIPs. Only their upper-class inner circle cannot enter. If you want to go in, It must be approved by Mr. Shen.”

"In this case, you should know how heavy the reward conditions offered by Mr. Shen are."

"It would be such an honor to be able to enter the Shen Mansion and have dinner with Mr. Shen. This is an opportunity that no amount of money can buy!"

"Oh, that's right. Before Uncle Lin returned, Miss Lin had not been in contact with the power center of the provincial capital, so she naturally did not know enough about some internal affairs. However, as long as I can remember, my grandfather often took me to attend the dinner parties of those big shots. Mr. Shen even hugged me, if Miss Lin wants to know anything, you can ask me in person."

There was a sense of superiority in Xu Yicheng's words.

Lin Wanyu admitted that the Xu family's background was indeed richer than that of the Lin family, but who made her father become the number two figure in Jiangbei? No matter how bitter Xu Yicheng was, he couldn't change the fact.

"That's right, how can I see the world like Mr. Xu? Our Lin family has just begun to rise, let alone be compared with aristocratic families like the Xu family." Lin Wanyu sneered.

Xu Yicheng responded with some pride: "Miss Lin doesn't have to be ashamed. Uncle Lin is now the capital of the provincial capital. Although the Lin family has a low background, they are also an upstart among the famous families in the provincial capital. It won't take long before he will surpass me." Home."

"Of course, compared with those five, we are far behind. In front of those five, the leader of Jiangbei City and the Jiangbei family must bow their heads obediently."

When Lin Wanyu heard Xu Yicheng talking about "those five people", she also frowned with a cautious look on her face.

These five people are truly at the top of the Jiangbei food chain.

Mr. Shen is one of them. He was once the number one figure in Jiangbei. He has been in charge of Jiangbei for more than fifty years. He has many disciples and a network of contacts throughout Jiangbei.

Although he has now retreated behind the scenes and lived a retired life of walking around and fighting crickets, his influence is still deeply rooted in Jiangbei. After all, his disciples are now leaders in all walks of life in Jiangbei.

In addition, his son Shen Qianjun is the number one figure in Jiangbei today. It can be said that the old man can make Jiangbei tremble with just a stamp of his feet.

Although Lin Wanyu's father is now the second-ranking figure in Jiangbei, just below Shen Qianjun, his foundation is relatively shallow and he has encountered some troubles since taking office.

"Ms. Lin, I heard that Uncle Lin has encountered some obstacles at work recently. When Mr. Shen comes, I will introduce you to him. Sometimes Mr. Shen's words are more effective than a death-free gold medal."

After Xu Yicheng said this, he deliberately said: "However, Mr. Shen is not willing to help everyone. Even though Uncle Lin is now the capital of the provincial city, if the relationship with the Shen family is not deep enough, it will be difficult for Mr. Shen to help. Open Chrysostom.”

At this time, Chu Yang glanced at Xu Yicheng, who had numerous family treasures, and suddenly said: "You have said so much, but it turns out to be a lot of nonsense. If the relationship between you and Mr. Shen is really as strong as you said, then you can help the Lin family. Confession is not just a matter of words."

Xu Yicheng's face suddenly darkened and he said: "What do you know, you country bumpkin? The various forces in the upper class are complicated and complicated. It's not as simple as you think!"
