Chapter 188 No difference
Mrs. Mu, who was sitting in the upper seat and sipping her tea, paused.
His sharp eyes swept over the noble lady who asked the question.
Unfortunately, the other party was not afraid at all, and just looked at her with a smile, "Mrs. Mu, why don't you say anything? Have you never watched that show?"
"Oh, even if you haven't watched the show, you can find it by browsing online. It's on the hot search list."
"Of course I am. I heard that hundreds of millions is the most conservative estimate. Experts estimate it to be 1 billion."
"Then I can make hundreds of times the money by reselling it. I don't know who bought it. I'm really lucky."
Several rich ladies sitting next to her joined in the conversation.
The lady's husband's surname is Wang, and they compete with the Mu family in business, so they have always been at odds with Madam Mu.
It was a rare opportunity to squeeze the other party, so how could she miss it?
Madam Mu's face became even more gloomy, and she looked coldly at Fang's mother beside her.
It's all this woman's adopted son who caused all the trouble. Look what she is doing.
However, at this moment, Fang's mother had no time to pay attention to her. Her mind and eyes were filled with the words those noble ladies were muttering.
A master from the Tang Dynasty, an antique painting, one billion?
It’s almost catching up with the Fang family’s wealth.
She was shocked, yet also a little jealous.
There is so much money. Ruan Tang grew up in the countryside and has no experience. Can he manage it?
She stood up suddenly and said to everyone, "I feel a little uncomfortable today, so I'll go back first."
When she left, the other ladies in the hall looked at each other in bewilderment.
This is really strange. Doesn't Mrs. Fang always follow Mrs. Mu's lead?
At this moment, Madam Mu was being bullied by Madam Wang and her gang. Not only did she not help, but she actually just left like that.
Everyone looked at Madam Mu's expression again.
Sure enough, that gloomy ground was dripping with water.
How could Mrs. Mu not know about these people's overt and covert scrutiny?
Although I was angry and annoyed in my heart, I couldn't show it because of my face.
He just snorted coldly and said, "You want to know the details of this "Auspicious Crane Picture" so much. You can ask Madam Fang next time. It was taken by her adopted son."
Hearing this, the rich ladies present all widened their eyes.
What? It was actually the Fang family who took the photo of the auspicious crane.
No, if that were the case, Mrs. Fang wouldn’t have that expression of just finding out.
Some people remembered what happened at the Fang family banquet last year. It seemed that the adopted son caused some farce and was kicked out by the Fang family.
"Wasn't the adopted son kicked out of the Fang family?"
If the person who wants to buy the painting is really the adopted son of the Fang family, then the Fang family members must be very depressed.
"You said, when the Fang family suddenly wanted to adopt a son, did they ask someone to calculate his fortune? It turned out that he had a good fortune."
The topic suddenly turned to metaphysics.
There's nothing you can do about it. The richer people are, the more superstitious they are.
It's okay for a country bumpkin to be adopted by a billionaire by sheer luck.
Any ancient painting can be worth hundreds of millions.
You are so lucky, isn't it because of your good fortune?
"Don't tell me, it's really possible."
The rich ladies all nodded in agreement.
Even Madam Mu couldn't help but frown.
At first, she was also puzzled as to why the Fang family would adopt a country bumpkin as their adopted son.
Could it be that what those ladies said was right, because that Ruan Tang has a good fortune?
She remembered whether Ruan Tang liked her own son.
Thinking of the recent unsuccessful cooperation with the Shen family, Mrs. Mu's eyes flickered.
It’s a marriage anyway, so there doesn’t seem to be much difference between an adopted son and a biological son.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the Fang family can coax the person back.
Seeing that Mrs. Mu diverted everyone's attention with just a few words, Mrs. Wang suddenly felt unhappy.
"Mrs. Mu, you are the one who organized this auction. You deceived the He family into thinking that the paintings were worth hundreds of millions, but they were reduced to a few hundred thousand. Shouldn't you give them an explanation?"
Madam Mu glanced at her coldly, "It's all donated anyway, what's the difference between a few hundred thousand and a few hundred million?"
"That's not the case. If it had been identified earlier as worth several hundred million, the He family might have donated other things."
The other rich ladies around her echoed her.
"The He family is in such a state now. Ten billion is enough for them to make a comeback."
"Let alone 1 billion, even if it's 10 million, the He family won't be willing to donate."
At the auction, the imperial green suit that the organizer, Mrs. Mu, took out was only worth 10 million.
How could Madam Mu allow them to point the spearhead at her?
"Oh, it's true that I'm the leader of the charity, but everyone here is also involved. And the one who made the mistake was the auction house. What does it have to do with me?"
They are all targeting her, right? Well, she will drag them down with her.
I have to say, this move is to hit the snake at its most vulnerable part.
Originally, Madam Mu had become the target of public criticism, and everyone was just following the trend to step on her.
But if the blame is put on oneself, no one would be willing to be the first to take the blame.
Seeing that they were all as cowardly as quails, Mrs. Mu snorted coldly, "What a bunch of idiots."
"Today's black tea is not good. It tastes a little bitter in my mouth, so I won't accompany you."
Madam Mu was used to being strong, and her words put everyone under so much pressure that they couldn't even raise their heads.
She was about to leave, and everyone just exchanged a few polite words.
No one tried to keep me, and no one targeted me anymore.
It seemed as if the verbal battle just now was just an ordinary conversation.
After she left, the atmosphere in the hall relaxed again.
Mrs. Wang sneered, "Oh, who is she showing off to? It's as if someone owes her something."
"Of course I am. I just took out a set of imperial green suit at the last charity auction, but you looked down on me. Now I am really embarrassed."
"If I were the He family, I would have gone and made a scene. They tricked me into donating hundreds of millions of dollars. Tsk tsk tsk, don't regret it."
……
This time, fewer people followed suit.
Mrs. Mu's words did make them worried.
It’s hundreds of millions. If the He family really makes trouble, who will pay the money?
On the other side, Fang's mother left the flower hall and did not go home, but went directly to Fang's house.
Fang Jianguo was reviewing documents when he heard his secretary report that Mrs. Fang came to see him.
He couldn't help but frown. His wife never cared about the company's affairs and rarely came to the company to find him.
What happened?
"Let her in."
After a few seconds, Fang's mother was brought in by the secretary.
"What's the matter with you looking for me so urgently?"
Fang's mother opened her mouth and was about to say something, but when she caught a glimpse of the secretary standing next to her, she closed her mouth again.
Seeing his concerns, Fang Jianguo waved his hand and signaled the secretary to go down.
After the secretary left, Fang's mother locked the door again out of concern, and then she approached her husband mysteriously.
"Mr. Fang, do you know that our son has made a lot of money? He has earned hundreds of millions."
Fang Jianguo was confused by her words, "What do you mean by hundreds of millions?"
Fang's mother repeated what she had heard today from the rich ladies talking about antique paintings.
Fang Jianguo narrowed his eyes immediately, "You mean, Ruan Tang spent 410,000 to buy an antique painting worth 1 billion yuan?"
Fang's mother nodded.
After a moment's silence, he asked, "Didn't you say you were going to find Ruan Tang last time? What did he say?"
