Chapter 957: The Dragon and Phoenix Xu Taiping
957
Giving gifts is a science.
It does not necessarily require expensive gifts to highlight your feelings. Sometimes, the best gift can be given with the simplest things.
Xu Taiping took out a red envelope from his pocket with a smile under the attention of everyone.
This is a red envelope that can be bought for one dollar on the roadside.
The red envelope contains a huge word "longevity".
This red envelope was obtained by Xu Taiping.
Who should I find? I find the servants of the Zhao family.
Early this morning, Mr. Zhao sent a red envelope to all the servants of the Zhao family, calling it "Futian Tongqing".
The Zhao family has money, so the minimum red envelope starts at 1,000 yuan. These are for the most ordinary servants of the Zhao family, and there are also some guards, managers, deacons, etc. The red envelopes for these people are relatively large.
Xu Taiping found a servant and then asked for a red envelope from the other party.
When Xu Taiping took out the red envelope, everyone's eyes widened at the entire birthday party.
Even Zhao Qingshan, the president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association, who is the most transcendent, can't believe what he saw in front of him.
Someone actually gave Mr. Zhao a red envelope at Mr. Zhao’s birthday party?
Giving money is a vulgar thing.
Even if you really want to give money, few people will give money directly. Generally, they will give you some works of art of higher value, and such things will become elegant.
Among all the people here, even if they have the most odor of copper, they know that they cannot give money directly. At least they have a gold birthday star and gave it to Mr. Zhao. Those who give money directly like Xu Taiping are unprecedented.
Moreover, looking at the thickness of the red envelope, it is hard to imagine that there will be more than ten hundred-dollar bills in the red envelope.
It is estimated that the most of them should be only five hundred.
A 500-year birthday red envelope is actually a generous gift among the poor, but it is not in the Zhao family right now. People who come here are all people with status and levels. Not to mention 500, even if you give out a 50,000 red envelope, it will look shabby.
All the gift-givers at night give the cheapest things they give are worth hundreds of thousands.
The old man's face was also a little weird.
A man who looks like a housekeeper stood beside the old man.
This person is specifically responsible for helping the old man receive birthday gifts. Generally, he will take away things that the old man doesn't like directly.
Just as the butler was trembling with his muscles on his face and was about to take away the red envelope from Xu Taiping, Mr. Zhao suddenly reached out and took the red envelope from Xu Taiping.
Just when everyone was shocked, Mr. Zhao opened Xu Taiping's red envelope and took out... a hundred yuan bill from it.
That's right, you read it right, it's just a bill of one hundred yuan!
Only one!
There is one!
One picture!
open!
Xu Taiping actually only gave the old man one hundred yuan!
Is this a gift for a seven-year-old child? Only by giving a red envelope to a seven-year-old child can he be so young, right?
Xu Taiping was helpless, embarrassed, and heartbroken.
He didn't expect that Mr. Zhao would open the red envelope he gave in front of so many people.
To be honest, it is well known that Xu Taiping is rich, but Xu Taiping did not bring cash.
He tried to borrow from the servants of the Zhao family, but in the end he only borrowed 100 yuan. Are you embarrassed or worried?
Xu Taiping originally planned to borrow money from Lai Gu, but on the one hand, they all have identities. If you go up to borrow money from someone, it will be a bit too much. Secondly, they all have identities. Who would bring cash on people with identities?
So, Xu Taiping only borrowed 100 yuan.
One hundred yuan is also money! Don’t be good at small things, and don’t be able to cover less money. Xu Taiping thought, if Mr. Zhao receives so many gifts, he will definitely not mind giving such a small red envelope. Even people will not notice the small red envelope he gave. So Xu Taiping naturally gave a red envelope of 100 yuan with peace of mind. But what Xu Taiping didn’t even calculate was that he was sitting at the main table, and he actually had such a rule to give gifts.
There was no way, now it was too late to get a gift at the moment, so Xu Taiping had to bite the bullet and go on. Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhao was too intimate and actually drew out one hundred yuan from him in public.
The butler standing next to Mr. Zhao pulled the corner of his mouth and shouted loudly, "Xu Taiping, give me... a red envelope of 100 yuan."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The whole yard was filled with laughter in an instant.
Even some scheming superiors couldn't help laughing when they heard the 100-dollar red envelope from the housekeeper next to Mr. Zhao.
Everyone looked at Xu Taiping and didn't understand how a blue flag-holder like Xu Taiping could do such a weird thing.
The other four flags under the field all covered their faces and lowered their heads. At this time, they all regretted it very much. How did they get confused by lard some time ago, and they actually agreed to let Xu Taiping become the flag leader.
Dugu Ying, who was sitting next to Mr. Zhao, smiled and made a silver bell-like laugh.
This was the first time Xu Taiping heard a sound on Dugu Ying. He was surprised to find that Dugu Ying's voice was actually very nice, just like the cries of a lark.
"I'm losing my lord now." Zhang Yuande, who was sitting below, looked sarcastic.
"This person is really... unconventional." Yu Guanhong couldn't help but exclaim.
"I think this can be seen from this that this boy is unique. Everyone gives all kinds of carefully prepared gifts. Only he seems to do whatever he wants, but in fact, he has left a deep impression on Mr. Zhao!" Chen Lingyun said in a deep voice.
The people around were stunned and then they all reacted.
Yes, the things they send are all of the most valuable things. These things are naturally the most impressive in normal times. However, in such occasions, these things have become ordinary, and it is better to give a red envelope of 100 yuan like Xu Taiping.
For Mr. Zhao, what kind of good things he has never seen? Even if he recorded the tortoise shell of ancient martial arts, Mr. Zhao only smiled slightly. It can be seen that no matter how valuable you give, Mr. Zhao might care about it. Now, if you give a red envelope of 100 yuan, Mr. Zhao may really remember you.
As Mr. Zhao, it is naturally impossible to vent your anger just because you gave you a red envelope worth 100 yuan. If he remembers you, that would be a great thing for you.
"Why didn't I expect it!" A man sitting next to Yu Guanhong couldn't help but pat his hands and said.
"Me too, I didn't expect that Xu Taiping seemed to be ugly, but in fact, among all the gifts in the audience, he was the most outstanding!" Someone sighed.
None of the people here are crazy. After laughing, many people also realized the extraordinary skills of Xu Taiping!
In the hall.
Mr. Zhao suddenly burst into laughter.
When Mr. Zhao laughed, the laughter immediately stopped at the scene, so the only laughter of Mr. Zhao was left in the entire scene.
"Hahahaha, interesting, so interesting, Taiping, I like your red envelope. To be honest, my father left early, decades, only I gave others a red envelope, but no one has ever given me even a red envelope. Everyone gave me all kinds of gifts, but they forgot that only red envelopes are the oldest tradition in China. Your red envelope reminds me of the red envelopes I was young, my father, my grandparents, my great-grandfather, the red envelopes they gave me, everything about the past, vividly remembered. Your red envelopes made me feel that I am not seventy years old this year, but seven years old. I feel that I am still very young, hahaha, Taiping, you make me happy!" Mr. Zhao said with a laugh.
Mr. Zhao's words made everyone here feel heartbroken. They spent a lot of time, energy, manpower and financial resources to prepare gifts. They originally planned to please the old man, but they did not expect that others were just a red envelope worth 100 yuan, which made the old man so happy. If they had known it, they would have given the red envelope.
Everyone looked at Xu Taiping with admiration.
Afterwards, everyone can do it. Now everyone thinks that giving red envelopes will have various benefits, but Xu Taiping is the only one who actually did this at the scene.
Is Xu Taiping a person without money? It is impossible. He is the banner holder of the Blue Banner, the most prestigious person in the entire Yangtze River Basin. His identity is not at the forefront among so many people on the scene, but at least it is also in the middle and lower reaches. He cannot afford any valuable gifts. Therefore, he has definitely thought about such a red envelope of 100 yuan. He has definitely understood Mr. Zhao's thoughts, so he gave such a red envelope.
There are so few people in this world who can understand Mr. Zhao’s thoughts. Xu Taiping can not only understand it thoroughly, but also appropriately suits his preferences. This wisdom is definitely not comparable to ordinary people!
"Taiping, it's really a dragon and a phoenix among people!" Chen Shengli sighed.
"Awesome!" Two words appeared in Li Chenghuan's mouth.
Although Xu Taiping was a little confused at this time, with his wisdom, he quickly understood the key. His eyes turned and he smiled and said, "Old man, you can like it!"
"I like so many people, you and Xiao Yingying are the most considerate. Taiping, just take advantage of this opportunity, so many people are watching, I'll ask you something." Mr. Zhao said.
"What's the matter?" Xu Taiping asked.
"When are you... planning to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?" Mr. Zhao asked with a smile.
Mr. Zhao's words once again made the entire scene fall into a dead silence.
Recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?
What's going on?!
