Free Web NovelChapter 645: Chapter 307: Extreme Tug-of-War, Ma Jingsong Cuts His Losses!
11:08 AM.
The Mercedes G-Class slowly parked in the spacious lot in front of Wangfu Tea House.
Beijing is truly a gathering place for the wealthy.
The Mercedes G-Class, which would be a boastful display back in Jiang Tao’s hometown of Ping County, is just a humble vehicle in Beijing.
Just the parking lot in front of Wangfu Tea House alone,
from a glance, there are seven or eight cars more luxurious than the Mercedes G-Class.
Among them, a yellow Lamborghini Aventador and a flashy red Ferrari whose name Jiang Tao couldn’t recall.
Along with a blue Cullinan, undoubtedly the most eye-catching presences in the lot.
As the saying goes, comparison leads to abandonment.
As he opened the door and got out, seeing so many luxury cars ahead,
Jiang Tao felt an impulse to buy a new car!
After all, whether it’s the Mercedes GLS driven by Third Brother Jiang Bing,
or the Mercedes G-Class he drives now,
neither was bought by him.
One was given by Du Enan, and the other by Du Enan’s father, Du Taoming.
The only ones he paid for himself are the four-meter-two truck and a few-hand Beiqi EU5.
"A man should be a bit ruthless to himself; isn’t earning money meant for spending?"
"I’ll treat myself to a new car this birthday!"
Thinking this quietly to himself, Jiang Tao then headed towards the main entrance of Wangfu Tea House.
"Hello sir, welcome to Wangfu Tea House."
"May I ask you... Oh, are you Mr. Jiang?"
A waitress in a well-fitting blue and white porcelain-style cheongsam, upon seeing Jiang Tao’s face, showed a slightly surprised expression.
"Hmm? You know me?"
Jiang Tao looked at the waitress with a somewhat puzzled expression.
The girl was about 1.6 meters tall, neither tall nor short, considered an average height among females.
Her appearance was around a seven out of ten, looking quite delicate, giving off a genteel vibe.
Staring at the girl before him, Jiang Tao couldn’t immediately remember who she was.
"Mr. Jiang, you have a prestigious forgetfulness; we met during Spring Festival."
"My name is Wang Xiaobai; I delivered a tub of popcorn to you."
Wang Xiaobai didn’t seem disappointed or upset that Jiang Tao didn’t recognize her, still welcoming him with a smiling face.
In her heart, Jiang Tao is a discerning big boss.
She, a mere service attendant, could only look up to him.
"Oh! So it’s you! You didn’t become a salesperson, instead, you came to Beijing to try your luck?"
Upon hearing Wang Xiaobai introduce herself, Jiang Tao immediately recognized the "Wealth-Sending Boy" who had once delivered fortune to him.
During Spring Festival, he and Third Brother made nearly 2 million yuan from selling Flying Pig popcorn tubs. freёwebnovel.com
This Wang Xiaobai played a considerable role in their success.
Moreover, Wang Xiaobai’s sister Wang Xiaohong was currently dating his eldest nephew Jiang Shijie.
Therefore, Jiang Tao was more polite to Wang Xiaobai than to other strangers. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"Haha, yes, the business position was hard to find; a friend referred me here."
"Are you meeting someone? Please come in; I’ll guide you upstairs."
With an honorable gesture, Wang Xiaobai invited Jiang Tao inside.
Jiang Tao followed in her footsteps and said:
"Ma Jingsong invited me; Phoenix Court private room."
"Alright, Mr. Jiang, please follow me."
Having worked at Wangfu Tea House for over a month, Wang Xiaobai was quite familiar with the place, leading Jiang Tao upstairs.
As Jiang Tao walked, he curiously observed the tea house’s environment.
The tea house was steeped in understated luxury, with ancient charm.
Dark wood decorations and oil-slicked furniture reminiscent of the Ming and Qing dynasties, exquisite porcelain on the shelves, even the faint scent of sandalwood floating in the air.
Jiang Tao rarely drank tea and was here at such a high-end tea house for the first time.
Previously, when driving trucks, he’d felt nervous visiting such upscale places, worried he might make a fool of himself by not understanding the customs.
Now, Jiang Tao was vastly different from before.
With the rapid growth of assets, he not only stood taller but felt stronger within!
No matter where he went, he remained comfortable in his own way.
No need to bother about rules; he makes his own rules!
"Mr. Jiang, this way please."
Leading him to the second floor, Wang Xiaobai took him to a secluded private room beyond screens painted with landscape paintings.
Soon, they walked down a corridor more than twenty meters long and reached the entrance of Phoenix Court’s private room.
Wang Xiaobai gently knocked on the door, followed by a slightly deep male voice from within.
"Come in."
Creak~
Wang Xiaobai gently opened the door, stepping aside to motion Jiang Tao inside.
"Please enter, Mr. Jiang."
"Alright."
Jiang Tao nodded with a smile and walked into the room, immediately seeing Ma Jingsong rise to greet him.
Ma Jingsong appeared to have dressed meticulously today.
Wearing a seemingly low-key yet valuable dark gray casual suit.
He also wore an IWC gold watch on his wrist.
Nevertheless, no matter how elaborate the outfit was, it couldn’t hide the bloodshot eyes nor the anxiety on his brow.
"President Jiang! You’re finally here! Have a seat, please!"
Seeing Jiang Tao, gratitude accompanied a slightly flattering smile on Ma Jingsong’s face.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Ma Veteran," Jiang Tao joked as he casually sat opposite him.
He casually glanced over the array of teaware and exquisite tea snacks on the table, remaining calm and composed.
"President Jiang, you’re kidding; I’m just a small lecturer, nothing compared to a big boss like you."
