Chapter 753: It’s not that the family doesn’t get together

Black naturally recognizes Xia Ruofei.
This scene is like that. It is also the gym of Hengfeng Jiahua Hotel. It is also a Chinese young man who is walking on the treadmill. The memory at the beginning of the year makes Black quite unpleasant.
Although Xia Ruofei had some whispers in his heart, he did not show it in front of Black. Now, what is the situation is still unclear! I have to ask at least after seeing Ma Xiong!
He just took a look at Black, then raised his eyebrows at him and asked in standard English: "Run together?"
Black's face was red and white, and he looked at Xia Ruofei for a few seconds, then he picked up his own things silently and turned and left.
Xia Ruofei grinned and continued to run on the treadmill.
This coincidence did not form any waves in Xia Ruofei's heart. He was faintly expecting Monica to come to the gym with the same mind as him.
However, in fact, Monica was tossed by Xia Ruofei in the middle of the night, and she was already exhausted. She was forced to climb up this morning. After returning to the room, she immediately fell asleep and went back to sleep.
Xia Ruofei ran to his body and sweated slightly. He got off the treadmill and left the gym. He went back to the presidential suite and took a shower. The time was almost seven o'clock. He put on a casual suit and took the elevator downstairs. Cafeteria.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Xia Ruofei saw that Ma Xiong and Feng Wei had already sat in the window. Ma Xiong had the first time to find Xia Ruofei, and immediately smiled and waved at him.
Xia Ruofei quickly walked over and said: "Mr. Ma Lao, how come you have to come over to accompany me for breakfast? Does this make me feel more worried?"
Ma Xiong said with a smile: "There is less sleep time when people are old! I am getting up at five o'clock every day, just come over and eat with Xiasheng!"
Feng Wei also said hello to Xia Ruofei, and then said to Xia Ruofei: "Chairman, go get it first! Hengfeng Jiahua's breakfast buffet is still very rich."
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded and said: "Mr. Ma Lao, Mr. Feng, then you should eat first!"
After that, Xia Ruofei got up and took the plate and took a few delicate cakes. Then he took two pieces of corn and one egg, and finally took a cup of fresh milk and walked back with the plate.
"Xia Sheng, do you eat this a little bit?" Ma Xiong said with a smile, "Young people should eat more!"
"Enough." Xia Ruofei smiled. "Breakfast doesn't need to eat too much."
The trio talked while eating, and Ma Xiong suddenly said: "Xia Sheng, there is something I don't know how to tell you..."
Seeing that Ma Xiong was in a dilemma, Xia Ruofei suddenly appeared in the mind of Black.
He smiled quietly: "Mr. Ma Lao has something to say, let's just need to bend around this relationship?"
"That is that..." Ma Xiong said, "Xia Sheng, then I will open the door. I don't know if you still remember the Frenchman named Black?"
Sure enough, it has something to do with him! Xia Ruofei said in his heart.
He did not deliberately pretend not to think about it, and nodded directly and said: "Of course, I was impressed with him at Shencheng at the beginning of the year! How? He came here this time?"
Xia Ruofei did not take the initiative to say that he had already met Black in the gym.
Ma Xiong smiled a bit and said: "He did come to Hong Kong Island and lived at the Hengfeng Jiahua Hotel..."
Then Ma Xiong immediately said: "But... we have never issued an invitation to the Black Food chain!"
In any case, the Black Group is considered to be more influential in the global catering industry, and it is famous for its authentic French cuisine. If the truffle auction like this is replaced by another auction house, it will definitely not miss them. of.
However, Ma Xiong knows that Xia Ruofei and Black do not deal with it - at the beginning of the year in Shanghai, Ma Xiong is a witness.
Therefore, Ma Xiong is particularly interested in the auction house, and it is absolutely impossible to send an invitation letter to the Black Group.
However, what makes Ma Xiong feel depressed is that the Black Group is still unsolicited, and it is also George Black, a young man who has had conflicts with Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "I believe this, and Mr. Ma Lao is definitely not able to invite them."
"Yes!" Ma Xiong said with a smile. "I also received news in the morning. The Black Group sent the George Black, whom you saw last time in Shencheng. They paid the deposit according to the normal procedure. When you buy an ordinary seat, you also know that we hold an auction, and it is definitely impossible to catch the guests out..."
Although Black’s status in his family group is not particularly high, he ranks very low in the heirs. However, if he came to the auction like him, he must be a guest, and it must be hosted. The party actively invited.
Ma Xiong did not expect that he not only did not invite himself, but also did not take the initiative to contact the auction house, directly paying the deposit through the normal procedure, and took an ordinary seat.
I don't know if the other party has a self-awareness or wants to keep a low profile. Anyway, this is to make Ma Xiong a little off guard.
He is worried that because of this incident, Xia Ruofei has a must, so it is really worth the loss.
So he rushed to the hotel early in the morning, and explained to Xia Ruofei the first time.
Ma Xiong did not know, Xia Ruofei had already had a face with Black in the hotel.
Fortunately, Xia Ruofei is not the kind of small belly chicken, but it will not be angered by Hengfeng auction house because of such things.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "I understand! Mr. Ma Lao, since the auction allows ordinary guests to pay the deposit, we can't break the rules..."
Ma Xiong suddenly sighed with a sigh of relief and said: "Thank you for the understanding of Xia Sheng! You can rest assured that Black will honestly participate in the auction, but if he dares to make any moths at the auction, this time I am sure Will not lightly excuse him!"
At the beginning of the year, Ma Xiong should have supported Xia Ruofei to go directly with Black to go through the legal process and sue him, and in fact, Ma Xiong also exerted a lot of pressure on the Black Food Group.
However, Xia Ruofei’s request at the time was George Black’s public apology in the media, which was totally unacceptable to the Black Group because the impact on the company’s reputation was too great.
So at that time, the Black Group found a long-time friend of Ma Xiong to mediate.
Ma Xiong still owed this friend a lot of people in his early years. In the end, he could only coordinate with Xia Ruofei with apologetic heart.
Xia Ruofei is still a good talker. He also knows that Ma Xiong must have his own difficulties. Plus, things are not a big deal, and he agrees not to pursue them.
If this time Black took the initiative to provoke, Ma Xiong certainly did not need to talk about the feelings, the old account and the new account together, but also to Xia Ruofei an account.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "Mr. Ma Lao, not so serious, I think he will come to the auction, and certainly hope to buy some truffles. It is impossible to fly from Europe to trouble?"
In fact, Xia Ruofei is a bit high to see Black. Although Black is not bent on making troubles, the biggest reason he came to Hong Kong Island is that he knows that Monica has come to Hong Kong Island, so he has been chasing it.
In addition, he also knows from the propaganda album that the provider of truffles participating in the auction is Xia Ruofei's Taoyuan Company. If he can let Taoyuan Company lose face in the auction, he is naturally very happy.
"I don't dare to forgive him!" Ma Xiong said.
Xia Ruofei shot a cold mang, and said faintly: "Even if he does not make trouble, I do not want our company's truffles to be bought by the Black Group."
Ma Xiong stunned, and some embarrassedly said: "Xia Sheng, he has already got the tickets to participate in the auction. With the financial strength of the Black Group, it is definitely impossible to return empty-handed. After all, your quality of truffles can be Very high, and this year's truffle harvest is not very good, such high-end ingredients are scarce everywhere!"
Xia Ruofei showed a smile on his face and said: "If you can't avoid it, then you have to let him bleed, hit him hurt!"
Ma Xiong smiled and shook his head and said: "The quality of this truffle is so high, no matter who wants to buy it, it must be bleeding!"
Xia Ruofei knew that Ma Xiong did not understand what he meant, but he did not explain too much. He just opened the topic with a smile.
After breakfast, Ma Xiong accompanied Xia Ruofei and Feng Wei to the auction hall in the Grand Ballroom on the third floor of the hotel.
The auction will start at 9:30 am on time.
Then Ma Xiong returned to the lounge next to the banquet hall, while Xia Ruofei returned to the presidential suite, ready to change into formal attire.
In addition, he also took out the truffles in the Lingtu space in advance and put them in the freezer. After a while, the auction house will go to the room to receive the truffles.
Around nine o'clock, Feng Wei accompanied the manager of the auction house, Dong Jiajun, to Xia Ruofei's room. Xia Ruofei took the precious truffles out of the freezer. After Dong Jiajun looked at it rigorously, he handed it to the work that accompanied him. Personnel, their group escorted these truffles downstairs.
Xia Ruofei, who was put on the dress, and Feng Xiao took the elevator to the third floor.
The grand ballroom on the third floor has been refurbished. Whether it is at the entrance of the door or inside the hall, the logos of Taoyuan Company and Hengfeng Group are everywhere, and beautiful posters can be seen everywhere.
The screen at the entrance of the banquet hall and the large rear projection screen in the hall also played a promotional video that Hengfeng Auction House specially invited the elite team to produce.
Guests attending the auction were also present.
In addition to some of Hong Kong's local wealthy, justices, and celebrities, there are also many Western faces who come out of the hotel's internal elevators. These are mostly the rich and famous catering companies represented by Ma Xiong and other regions in Europe, America and Australia.
It is a pity that Xia Ruofei feels a little bit regret that the American father Tang He and the Australian Tang Yantian have no way to come over because of other work schedules.
Both Tang and the rich have specifically called Xia Ruofei and expressed their apologies.
At the same time, the two people also asked Xia Ruofei to leave some of the best truffles for them. They all expressed their willingness to purchase at the auction price.
On the one hand, it is the support of Xia Ruofei business, on the other hand they really like the top food of truffle.
Xia Ruofei got the guest list in advance.
Not counting the uninviting, through the payment of the margin to the Black Group, the world's famous western food chain is basically in line, and there is also a very large size, but in the circle is very famous Michelin restaurant They also sent representatives to participate.
In addition, there are at least five assets in the European and American rich who are equivalent to Tang He and Tang Haotian.
Seeing this list, Xia Ruofei jokingly said to Feng Wei: "Feng, I estimate that the parking space at Hong Kong Island Airport will be very tight these days!"
Feng Wei couldn't help but grin, the preparations for the auction were very smooth, and her mood was quite pleasant at the moment.
Most of these rich people are coming by private jets. It is estimated that a small private jet exhibition can be opened on the tarmac of Hong Kong Island Airport.
At this moment, Ma Xiong, a suit and a man, also walked over.
"Xia Sheng! I will introduce you to a few friends in a while!" Ma Xiong said with a smile. "They are mainly old friends on Hong Kong Island. They are also very interested in you."
"Oh? I am a young, can the rich and the rich know me?" Xia Ruofei joked.
"I may not have noticed you before, but after the last best auction of the abalone, I am afraid that the people on the Hong Kong Island have not heard of your name!" Ma Xiong said with a smile, "Good friendship and a few old My friend complained to me! I said that I didn't inform them in advance, and the result was missed with the best abalone."
Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "You can tell them that there will be some abalone, as long as we look at the brand of our Taoyuan company! Of course, there is your Hengfeng auction house!"
Ma Xiong suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
The auction was mainly conducted by Dong Jiajun and Feng Wei, and Ma Xiong’s status was highly respected. He did not personally greet the guests at the door. So after the two chilled a few words, they prepared for the advanced field.
At this moment, Black, wearing a full set of custom Armani suits and shiny hair, also came out of the elevator.
When he went to the door to see Xia Ruofei, he stopped and looked at Xia Ruofei with his eyes.
And Xia Ruofei is always a light look, so he looks straight into Black's eyes.
For a long time, Black grinned softly and said: "I heard that the truffles of this auction are provided by your company? If the quality is still decent, our Black Group will consider taking care of your business."
