Power and Wealth

Chapter 777

That evening.

It was still half light, but the sun was about to set.

Dong Xuebin repeatedly confirmed the pair of pink diamonds, carefully placed them in his arms one by one, and quietly exited the compound of the Central Party School.

There is a huā shop diagonally across the road.

Dong Xuebin took a look and walked inside quickly.

"Hello sir." A female clerk smiled and said, "May I ask what kind of huā?"

"Are there any roses?" Dong Xuebin glanced at "red roses."

"Yes." The female clerk pointed to the corner. "Are you giving it to your girlfriend? How many do you want?"

Dong Xuebin estimated the little money he had on him. "Well, nine hundred and ninety-nine flowers. Pack them for me. By the way, how much is one flower?" In the past, Dong Xuebin never asked for the price when he bought things. But now, buying a diamond ring has already wiped out all of Dong Xuebin's savings, and he has also borrowed a lot of foreign debts. At this moment, counting some fractions from the bank card and the money in the wallet, it is already a little over 3,000. Once upon a time, Dong Xuebin, who never blinked his eyes, could not have imagined that he would be today, poor.

The female clerk replied, "We have a three-yuan bill here."

"Three dollars? So expensive?" Dong Xuebin was depressed.

"This is the cheapest season for roses in our shop. If it's Valentine's Day and winter, it will cost more than ten yuan a piece."

"No discount?"

"You can get a basket for free."

Dong Xuebin waved, "Okay, take it for me."

"Nine hundred and ninety-nine, right? Please wait a moment." The female clerk quickly packed him and put all the roses in a large and beautiful basket.

Dong Xuebin looked through his wallet distressedly and paid 3,000 yuan.

The weight of nearly a thousand roses is still unclear. Holding this big basket out of the store, Dong Xuebin could barely see the road ahead. He walked forward for a while with a wry smile and looked at the car in front of him A passing taxi, Dong Xuebin, did not reach out to stop it, because he felt that the more than 100 yuan in his wallet might not be enough to pay for the journey from here to Xie Huilan's house, so he walked a little more. He wanted to smoke, but it was long gone. Dong Xuebin walked to a small shop next to him. He was about to open his mouth to say a packet of Chinese, but he swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Looking at the cigarettes in the cigarette cabinet, Dong Xuebin only bought a pack of Dubao for three yuan.

I took two sips, coughing, coughing, and choking.

Make do with it, who made the money not enough.

It was not until he walked over the road that was often jammed with traffic that Dong Xuebin reached out and stopped the taxi. When the car stopped at the door of Sister Xie's house, it was exactly 118 yuan including the fuel surcharge. Dong Xuebin handed over the last 120 yuan on his body and retrieved the change. There were only two yuan in his wallet.

Beijing Standing Committee Family House.

In front of Xie's Villa.

Dong Xuebin, who stepped forward, hid the rose in an inconspicuous place in the garden, and then went to the door and rang the doorbell.

Ding dong ding dong.

The door opened, and it was Xie Hao's door, "Haha, the idol is here."

Dong Xuebin smiled and said, "You kid, can't you be an old idol?"

"Xiaobin is here?" Han Jing, who was in the room, greeted her with a strong smile: "Come in.

Dong Xuebin was busy and embarrassed: "Auntie, I'm in a hurry, and I didn't buy anything. I'll make it up next time."

Han Jing pretended to be unhappy and said, "It's right not to buy things. Every time you come here, you will come in big and small bags. There are fruits and nutritional supplements at home. If you can't finish eating, you will throw them away. It's a waste. That's the best way. Don't buy anything next time you come, or aunt won't let you in, hehe."

Dong Xuebin is still embarrassed, it's not that he doesn't want to buy it, but he really has no money.

In the room, in addition to Xie Huilan, Xie Ran and Xie Jing were also there.

Xie Huilan smiled and glanced at him, "Let our family wait for you alone? Huh?"

"Traffic jam, traffic jam." Dong Xuebin greeted Xie Jing and Xie Ran again.

At this time, Xie Guobang, the secretary of the Beijing Municipal Committee, walked downstairs slowly, and when he saw Dong Xuebin, he smiled lightly, "Xiao Dong is here?"

Dong Xuebin, who had just sat down, hurriedly stood up and said respectfully, "Hello, uncle."

"Don't be so restrained." Xie Guobang pressed his hands, "Here, wash your hands and prepare for dinner."

"Ai!"

"How was your study with the party school?"

"tǐng okay, it helped me a lot."

"That's good." Xie Guobang nodded, "recharge more, it will also be useful for your future work..."

Xie Huilan interrupted with a smile: "Dad, you have an official accent when you come, and tell my Xiaobin not to be restrained. Can Xiaobin be restrained when you look like this?"

Xie Guobang pointed to his daughter and shook his head with a smile, "This girl."

Han Jing glanced at her husband and smiled, "Look at your daughter, how tight you are with her man, this is called "Women turn out and turn her elbows out."

Xie Guobang and Xie Jing both laughed.

Xie Huilan said generously: "Haha, do I have it?"

Xie Hao exclaimed: "Yes! Too good! Sister, you are just partial! When did you treat me so well!"

Xie Jing laughed and said: "I have almost lost all of my childhood memories, but there are a few pictures that I remember very clearly, that is, our eldest sister beat me and my brother fiercely."

Xie Hao hummed: "She didn't beat me too much."

Xie Ran smiled, "Sister is also good for us."

"Look, Xiao Ran said something fair." Xie Huilan smiled and said, "You still turn over the old accounts with me? Okay, then let's talk about it, you, Xiao Jing, when you were a child..."

Xie Jing blushed and said hurriedly: "Don't say it! Don't say it! Am I wrong?"

"It's good that you know." Xie Huilan turned her head and said, "And you, Xiaohao, when you were seven or eight years old..."

Xie Hao was anxious, "Damn it! Where are we turning over the old accounts? It's you who turned the old accounts!"

Everyone laughed.

Han Jing smiled and said, "This time is the fastest thing that has ever passed. At the beginning, you were all small, it seems like it happened yesterday. Think, it's still fun and cute when you were young."

Xie Hao shouted: "By the way, sister, when are you getting married?"

Xie Guobang suddenly said to his daughter: "I went to the old man yesterday, and the old man said that it will be done this month. I will discuss the wedding with your mother."

Dong Xuebin moved, and Mr. Xie agreed?

Xie Huilan smiled and looked at Dong Xuebin, "I said it last time, some people haven't shown the sincerity of the proposal, how can I get married in such a hurry? Right?"

Xie Jing giggled and laughed, "Brother Dong, my sister is beating you."

Han Jing laughed and scolded: "This girl Huilan, how can you say such a thing!"

Suddenly, a news item on TV caught everyone's attention.

Only Xie Hao called out "!"

On the TV screen, the pair of pink diamonds appeared on the screen again, and the host said: "Guardian Auction House has auctioned this pair of pink diamond rings, and the result exceeded many people's expectations. The starting price is 8,000. Wan, the final transaction price of the ring, which was estimated to be 200 million yuan, turned out to be 237 million yuan. If commissions and other expenses were added, the final transaction price of this pair of rings was nearly 300 million yuan. The highest price of domestic diamond transactions has also set a new record for the world's highest diamond ring auction, and the world's most expensive diamond ring is well deserved!"

Xie Jing was surprised: "Nearly 300 million? So high?"

Xie Ran smiled bitterly and said, "The domestic cashiers are not much worse than the foreign ones."

"I'm going, who bought it?" Xie Hao said: "The estimate has already exceeded the market value, how come it is half higher than the estimate? Are you crazy?"

Xie Huilan and Han Jing also stared at the TV.

Just listen to the host's voice for a while, "As far as we know, this pair of high-priced pink diamonds was taken by an unknown young man. The relevant person who participated in this auction told us that the mysterious young man was not until the end of the auction. Just entered the venue, wearing sunglasses, and when the pink diamond bids, the mysterious young man will increase the price all the way, suppressing many competitors and finally come out on top."

Hearing this, Xie Jing was even more surprised, "A young man bought it? So exaggerated?"

Xie Ran thought for a while, "Maybe with the money from my father's generation, I want to get married? Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent so much money to buy two rings."

"Why don't you ask, it's definitely getting married." Xie Hao hummed.

Xie Jing envied: "Proposing with such sky-high pink diamonds, how big is the scene? If it were me, I would be dead happy, hee hee, it's too romantic."

"What is romance? Isn't it money." Xie Hao was not convinced.

Xie Jing glanced at him, "What do you know, it's not because the ring is expensive, but because the woman thinks that the man is willing to give her money and value her, so she feels romantic."

Xie Hao muttered: "Women, it's just too troublesome, what romance, can you eat it?"

Both Han Jing and Xie Huilan looked at Xie Hao.

Xie Hao was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Auntie, eldest sister, I didn't mean you two, but don't take the right seat." Xie Hao saw that the public was about to get angry, and hurriedly changed the subject, "Eldest sister, what do you want me to do, Brother Dong? Propose, tell me, I will give you a counselor."

Xie Huilan laughed and said, "Is it interesting to say it? As if I was begging, your elder sister is not so thick-skinned, hehe, let him think for himself."

Xie Hao Xie Jingxin said that you are not thick-skinned? You have the thickest skin in our family!

But just when this topic had not yet started, Dong Xuebin suddenly stood up under the gazes of Han Jing and Xie Jing, coughed, he walked to Xie Huilan, and said solemnly: "Huilan, some I want to tell you something."

Xie Hao was stunned for a moment, "Damn it, what's the situation!"

"Shh, shh!" Xie Jing stopped Xiaohao immediately.

Han Jing and Xie Guobang looked at each other and looked over with a smile.

Everyone can see it, Dong Xuebin seems to be asking for marriage, but looking around, Dong Xuebin has nothing to prepare, not even a child, is this also called a marriage proposal? This is too casual, Xie Huilan smiled and raised her head, "Oh? What? Let's talk.".
