Chapter 706
A few days in advance, someone in his high school group was contacting everyone to organize a reunion before the year.
The contact person was their class monitor and study committee member at the time, named Jiang Kai and Du Xinlan respectively. Li Du worked very hard in high school and was also a class leader—a labor committee member.
On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, we made an appointment at noon to meet at a hotel in the county seat.
In the morning, Li Du and Sophie finished the video, and after giving Ah Ao and Crispy Noodles a Meme, he quickly got up and drove to the hotel to prepare for the party.
Godzilla changed his clothes and was about to go out. Li Du waved his hands and said, "What are you going to do? You can just stay at home. The security in our county is very safe."
The big Mexican said in a muffled voice, "Let me go."
"What's wrong?" Li Du wondered, "You've been here for a while, and you still don't have confidence in the security of my hometown?"
The Mexican man sighed: "Oh, it's too boring, I'm going to do some activities."
Da Ao hurriedly said: "Boss, I'll go too, it's really boring."
Hearing this, Li Du laughed and said, "Okay, okay, let's go out together, but I can't take you to the party, so you can drive around when the time comes."
Godzilla nodded: "Okay."
His home is not far from the hotel he booked. The hotel is called 'Four Seasons Spring Garden', which is considered one of the top five high-end hotels in their county. It has four floors in total, the first floor is the lobby, the second floor is the buffet, the third floor and The fourth floor is private rooms.
After Li Du arrived, he reported the number of the private room, and a waiter smiled and took him up to the fourth floor.
Pushing open the door, there were two people sitting together playing with their mobile phones. The two met each other, and Li Du laughed: "Brother Nan, Du Hang, long time no see."
Both of them were his high school classmates. Brother Nan's name was Du Zhengnan, who was their class monitor. They also lived in the village in the city, similar to Li Du's family. The village was merged into the county a few years ago.
Du Zhengnan is a tall man wearing glasses, with a strong intellectual atmosphere.
Before the college entrance examination, he was the best student in his class and went to Kyoto to study in a 985 key university.
Du Hang is a bit short, with dark skin and a stout body. Li Du hasn't had much contact with him since he graduated from high school, so he doesn't know what he is doing now.
The friendship in middle school was very pure, and there was no collusion or conflict of interests between them, so although they haven't seen each other for a long time, they still feel very close to each other when they meet again.
Du Hang directly took out three bottles of beer from the corner of the box, and said, "Come on, stomach, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's have a drink first."
Li Du smiled and waved his hands: "Don't, don't, let's talk about it when everyone comes together."
They were in one big bag, and there were twenty-four people coming to the party. Not long after Li Du arrived, another ten or so people came in, and the box suddenly became lively.
Du Hang and the two introduced earlier that Du Zhengnan is also a graduate student, and he stayed in school to study, and he may stay in school to teach in the future. Du Hang went into business and engaged in real estate sales.
There were too many people, and a classmate named Ning Baichuan asked Li Du, "Stomach, what are you doing now? I seem to have heard that you have gone abroad?"
Li Du smiled and said: "Well, I went to the United States to study as a graduate student. At my own expense, I want to plate it with gold. You also know that I am a piece of broken copper and iron. If I don't plate it with gold, I won't be able to sell it in the future."
Several female students laughed, and one of the girls asked, "If you study abroad at your own expense, I'm afraid it will cost a lot, right? How to solve it?"
Li Du said: "Working in the United States, the money there is not difficult to earn, so you can earn a tuition fee and living expenses."
"You are being polite. I heard from my mother that you made a lot of money while studying in the United States." The person who spoke was Geng Changsheng. He was in the same town as him and his parents knew each other.
Li Du waved his hand to be polite, but Du Hang grabbed his wrist and said, "Mother, is this the real thing?"
Geng Changsheng asked, "What is real and fake?"
Du Hang glared at him and said, "The white eyes are so big, look at the watch on his wrist, Patek Philippe!"
Several female classmates exclaimed. They were already working, and most of them were working in big cities, so they knew what a Patek Philippe watch represented.
Li Du withdrew his hand and said, "Oh, this is an old watch, second-hand, haha, not very valuable."
Du Hang said: "I'll give you five thousand yuan, how about you sell me this second-hand thing that's not very valuable?"
Li Du: "..."
Du Hang continued: "You're welcome, old classmate, although I don't know how much your watch is worth, but in my opinion, this is definitely a famous watch made by Patek Philippe!"
"Patek Philippe produces famous watches." The door opened, and a girl with delicate makeup came in.
Someone shouted exaggeratedly: "Hey, school committee, are you going into the sea? Why are you dressed so exaggeratedly? You look like a monster."
The girl was their study committee member, named Zhang Xuening. She made a mistake in the college entrance examination and then repeated it for another year. It is said that she did very well in the exam later, and she studied at Jinjing University, the top-ranked university in their province.
Zhang Xuening made a gesture to slap the girl who was joking with her, and a young man walked in behind her, and made a face at Zhang Xuening after hearing the joke.
Li Du had never seen this young man before, but someone knew him and said, "Student committee, is this your boyfriend?"
Zhang Xuening nodded generously, and said, "Yes, it's our classmate. Didn't I go to senior high school? I was in the same class as him at the time, and we were considered alumni, so I brought him along. I hope everyone will forgive me."
"Alumni? I'm one level lower than us, and I don't have any impression?" Du Hang wondered, "It stands to reason that such a handsome guy and such a talent, I know everything, so I can't help but know."
The young man smiled and said, "Oh, I transferred here at that time, so we are the same school, but we have never met before."
His name is Zhou Ji, he has an artistic atmosphere, and now he works as a music teacher at their alma mater.
Zhang Xuening gave them a brief introduction, and then asked, "Who bought Patek Philippe? Zhou Ji's family makes watches..."
"Mr. Zhou Jianguo is you?" Du Hang couldn't help asking when he heard Zhang Xuening's words.
Zhou Ji smiled and said: "That's my father, do you know him? I can't see the elders here, right?"
Several people laughed, Du Hang didn't smile, stood up and shook hands with him warmly, said: "So it's Mr. Zhou, I've known you for a long time, I've heard of your father's name, but I don't have the chance to meet you."
After speaking, he introduced to his classmates: "Mr. Zhou Jianguo is a famous industrialist in our province, and Zhou's watch industry is their brand."
Many students are in awe, this is really worthy of the name of 'Young Master', he is a serious and wealthy second generation, and Zhou's watch industry is a major taxpayer in their province.
Zhou Ji kept a low profile and said, "Everyone, don't look at me like this. My father does have a career, but that has nothing to do with me. In the future, the business has nothing to do with me. I'm just a music teacher."
He also quickly changed the subject: "By the way, which one of you wants to buy Patek Philippe? I know a little about this watch, so I can help."
