In fact, this table was specially placed here by the Wang family in accordance with the previous rules. Because this is the best location in the entire banquet hall, it is prepared for the most distinguished guests. Because of this, not everyone can eat at this table. Generally, only the heads of the four major families can.
Of course, the four family heads can also bring a few people they value to the table together. This behavior is normal, but Liu Guojun has not brought anyone here for a long time in the past year. Therefore, everyone did not notice the arrival of Liu Yating and Zhang Xiaodao for a while. They had been chatting in private before, and they were so confused when someone suddenly came over. If they were like the people below, they would have known that Zhang Xiaodao was coming, and they would definitely That won't happen.
However, there were indeed no outsiders present. Except for the Zhao family and the Liu family, the only ones left were the Li family and the Wang family. And the Wang family were busy entertaining guests, so there were more people from the Li family present, so they were not on guard, which is why the current scene happened.
After Liu Guojun sat down, he looked at his daughter and found that she was chatting quietly with Mr. Zhang. At this time, he was not jealous at all, and even felt a sense of relief and pride. After all, it was his daughter who was outstanding that attracted Mr. Zhang and made him stay in the Liu family willingly.
Although the Liu family also needs to pay some costs, for example, the Liu family is still consuming manpower and material resources to help him find things, but these efforts are rewarded. It's just that the Liu family's power has become much stronger in the past few days. The family's financial resources are also constantly increasing. Many people offer good projects to them, and they have to give money directly to the Liu family.
All this is because Mr. Zhang is in charge of the Liu family, which gives them their current status and momentum, and allows those group companies to put down their dignity and take the initiative to show their goodwill. If it were the Liu family before, although many companies would give some face, few would directly send projects like this.
"Look at me, I forget about business when I'm happy. This gentleman is Mr. Zhang who has been a guest at our Liu family. Today I take this good opportunity to introduce you to you. Mr. Zhang usually rarely He is attending such a banquet, so you don’t need to pay too much attention to him, just eat well!”
Liu Guojun looked at Xiaodao who had already begun to take down his chopsticks, and felt funny in his heart. Even though the banquet hadn't started yet, and the host hadn't spoken yet, this guy had already started eating. But he wasn't angry at all. An expert is an expert, and he was always so casual wherever he went. So he quickly spoke up to introduce him to everyone, and also gave everyone a reason, otherwise he would really stand out from the crowd.
"Who do I think is so ignorant of etiquette? It turns out to be Mr. Zhang, who has become famous recently. This is the fault of your Liu family. You didn't say hello to us before coming, which made us so confused. It seemed like You Liu family are like masters, so you better not be too arrogant in your conduct and work. It’s still a long time and you might fall down one day, so it’s better to be careful!”
Although there was nothing wrong with what Liu Guojun said, it was very unpleasant to hear in the ears of the Zhao family. In their hearts, Liu Guojun was clearly showing off. Even the head of the Zhao family, Zhao Huayu, feels very unhappy. You must know that it was the Zhao family who did such things before, but now it is the Liu family's turn to be arrogant here. So Zhao Huayu nodded to Zhao Huasheng, indicating that he should speak out to dampen the Liu family's momentum, so Zhao Huasheng said such provocative words.
In fact, everyone knows very well that the purpose of coming here today is to compete for status. Although the Zhao family can no longer confront the Liu family head-on, at least for now. But the Zhao family will still fight for the momentum and face. Otherwise, if they continue to tolerate it, those forces that still choose to support the Zhao family will definitely lose confidence.
"It turns out that you, Zhao Huasheng, were still so kind-hearted. I, Liu Guojun, really only found out today that you are still a warm-hearted person. However, it is really not your Zhao family's turn to say how our Liu family does things. Besides, you are not the head of the family, you are the second-in-command of the Zhao family, what qualifications do you have to make irresponsible remarks here!"
Although Liu Guojun's words were not unpleasant, his counterattack was very direct and fast, as if he had no intention of saving any face for the Zhao family. The expression on his face was as indifferent as ever, as if the Liu family no longer looked down on the Zhao family at this time. In terms of words and momentum, the Liu family won this round.
At this time, both Liu Guojun and Zhao Huayu knew very well that their current attitudes and words were declaring their strength to the outside world. If Liu Guojun shows weakness at this time, outsiders will soon think that the Liu family is bluffing, and the Zhao family's momentum will naturally increase. It's just that Zhao Huayu's little thinking was immediately seen by Liu Guojun, and he didn't give the Zhao family a chance to make a comeback.
Seeing that his words were directly retorted by the other party, Zhao Huasheng was ready to continue quarreling with Liu Guojun. After all, he knew that the more serious the quarrel was, the more magical it would be spread outside. Maybe he could save some momentum, but just as he was about to continue speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Huayu waving his hand.
"It seems that your Liu family is really confident today. You can definitely suppress our Zhao family. You really are not afraid at all that you will be beaten when the time comes."
Zhao Huayu's words were so profound. On the surface, he said them very tactfully, and his tone was not that intense, but the meaning behind these words was very powerful. There are many meanings hidden in it, and you can feel it as long as you experience it carefully.
"I, Liu Guojun, am different from you. Even if my Liu family has the strength, we will not create any monopoly. If we have money, we can all make money together, and we can all do things together. I will definitely not do what you did before. He only cares about his own family and makes others unable to even drink soup."
Facing Zhao Huayu's stern eyes, Liu Guojun didn't care and just talked, and didn't seem to take the other party's threat seriously at all. The words were still so strong and forceful that even Wang Shihao next to him glanced at the current Liu Guojun, and his face was still so calm, and there was no sign that he was angry at all.
"You can say it nicely, but I don't know if you will do it. But if you have no ambition, it means you are old. Isn't there an old saying that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead? I don't know that you are the wave before. Isn’t it time to retire?”
As expected of the head of the Zhao family, he knew where he was at fault, so he directly avoided his weaknesses and talked about his strengths. Yes, Wang Shihao is indeed younger than Liu Guojun, and he is indeed more ambitious than him. This is very important for those who open up territories, so many forces like leaders like him.
On the contrary, people like Liu Guojun are more suitable for guarding the family business. He knows how to behave and understand the golden mean, which can make the entire family very stable. But he is definitely unable to create any miracles, so only the forces of the older generation will choose to support him, while those who want to make rapid progress choose to support the Zhao family.
"Actually, I don't need to say more about this. Our Liu family has always done things this way, so I don't need to say anything more. I'm afraid any of the other families here don't know the rules of life of our Liu family. It’s only you who don’t know.”
This sentence seemed to resonate, and the heads of the Li family and the Wang family nodded in agreement. After all, their feelings were very deep. Even the current Liu family is not too strong and still has the same attitude towards the two families. From this point of view, Liu Guojun's character is still good.
But at this time, although the two people seemed to be arguing like ordinary people, they seemed to be arguing for their own interests just like the vendors on the street. But in fact, the two families are constantly testing each other. If they are not careful, it will trigger a war between the two families again, and it will be an extremely cruel battle.
Especially the head of the Zhao family, who seems relatively restrained on the surface, is actually ready to take action against the Liu family at any time, and his words keep revealing such information. This time, Liu Guojun also changed his forbearing attitude before. Today, his attitude was surprisingly tough, and he did not save any face for the Zhao family.
Thinking of this, Wang Shihao and the head of the Li family looked at each other, and they both nodded slightly. It seemed that both of them had gotten the answer they wanted. Wang Shihao was in a good mood at this time, so he turned around and looked elsewhere. After all, today was still his birthday.
At this time, the birthday party is still going on. Unlike the atmosphere here, which is full of gunpowder, other places are very lively. The people who can come here today are all people with status and status. They both wanted to get to know each other through this opportunity, because they might be able to use each other's knowledge at some point in the future.
In fact, this kind of atmosphere is what a real birthday is like, especially when he saw the happy looks on everyone's faces, Wang Shihao felt like he was celebrating his birthday. He was just listening to the conversation between the Liu family and the Zhao family. Although the two big families were fine on the surface, there was already an undercurrent surging behind the scenes, which made him feel exhausted and not even happy at all.
So he had to look elsewhere to find some happy feelings. Even if he was the head of a big family, he still had emotional needs. When he saw Wang Yan, he felt a little happy in his heart, so he said a few words to the service staff around him.
After just a short while, Wang Yan walked towards Wang Shihao with very cute steps. Wang Shihao happily pulled her over and let her sit on his side.
"Everyone, I would like to introduce my daughter to you today. Although you must have met her, there are many young people here, so I will introduce it to you again."
Seeing Wang Shihao's happy look, everyone felt that this matter was not that simple, and that Wang Shihao must have some intention. But everyone was smart, so no one asked, just watching him perform.
But as soon as his words came out, Liu Guojun knew his intention immediately, so he immediately became vigilant and his expression became serious. But at this time, Wang Shihao had already looked towards Zhang Xiaodao with a smile, and even Wang Yan made a beautiful gesture for Xiaodao, as if she was showing her favor to him.
