108 Opening the 1,050 Red Packets; Old Master Zhou’s Decision

Not long after, three chefs of medium build came to Lin Fan.

Originally, Lin Fan wanted to pay Zhang Shanfeng the hiring fee.

However, Zhang Shanfeng insisted on not accepting it, so Lin Fan could only give up.

Then, Lin Fan and the three chefs went to Big Pot Vegetable Market.

When the three chefs arrived, they were obviously surprised.

Although the name of the vegetable market sounded old-fashioned, it was the most luxurious market in Jiangbei, also known as Market No. 1.

There were all kinds of top-grade meat, fruits, and vegetables here.

A bunch of ordinary-looking grapes cost a few hundred yuan.

The three chefs already knew that their mission this time was to help hold a birthday banquet.

In that case, they would definitely need to buy a lot of ingredients.

These ingredients… Were they going to buy them all at Big Pot Vegetable Market?

Very quickly, Lin Fan confirmed their thoughts.

“Let’s buy ingredients for 30 tables first. 100,000 yuan per table,” Lin Fan said.

The three chefs were stunned again.

Clearly, they were still in disbelief.

100,000 yuan per table!

Even in a five-star hotel, such a price would be considered the highest standard of food.

Now, they were going to spend that amount of money just on the ingredients?

The chef standing in the middle asked, “Mr. Lin, does the 100,000 yuan include alcohol?”

Lin Fan shook his head and said, “Alcohol isn’t included.”

After the three chefs received Lin Fan’s approval, they did not hesitate any longer and walked into Big Pot Vegetable Market.

Squab, shrimp, top-grade Wagyu, suckling pork, goat meat, organic tomatoes, space pepper…

The three chefs had never personally bought these ingredients before, so they really had a good time today.

While they were choosing the ingredients, Lin Fan had also chosen the wine and drinks.

In the end, the total cost was four million yuan.

Lin Fan did not hesitate at all. He immediately paid with his card.

Instantly, a crisp notification sound rang out in Lin Fan’s mind.

[Ding! You’ve spent four million yuan this time. Do you want to use the 10x interest card?]

Lin Fan chose ‘confirm.’

Not long after, his phone vibrated.

[Notice from Merchant Bank: 40 million yuan was deposited into your account.]

Lin Fan looked at the large number of high-grade ingredients and alcohol that were being moved into the truck. He had a strange expression on his face.

Not only did he not spend money, but he also earned money?

Lin Fan took advantage of the time when he was moving the ingredients and found a place with no one around. He took out his phone and looked at the 1,050 red packets on the screen.

Lin Fan bought furniture, completed the feasting mission, and spent a total of 6.5 million yuan.

For every 10,000 yuan spent, he could open a red packet.

However, Lin Fan planned to open all 1,000 red packets at the same time.

Hence, he had not touched the red packets.

Today, he spent another four million yuan, making it a total of 10.5 million yuan, which was just more than 1,000 red packets.

“1,050 red packets. Let’s see what I can get,” Lin Fan mumbled.

“Open all of them!”

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received two yuan.]

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received 1,000 yuan.]

…

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received a jade chess set. It’s transparent, warm, and soft. It’s extraordinary.]

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received four yuan.]

…

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received a 10x spending return card. The better the spending, the better the harvest.]

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve received five yuan.]

…

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve obtained 51% of Xiao Wu’s Wholesale City shares. It’s one of the largest wholesale markets in Hua Nation. The items are cheap and of good quality.]

…

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve obtained a skill doubling card. It’s able to double the ability of a specific skill for an hour. With more powerful skills, you can display more charm.]

…

[Ding! Congratulations, you’ve obtained Expert Hacking Skills. You understand the network structure, can solve network problems, and can display extraordinary charm!]

…

From the 1,050 red packets, Lin Fan received a total of 1.02 million yuan, a 10x spending return card, 51% shares of Xiao Wu’s Wholesale City, a doubling skill card, Expert Hacking Skills, and other things.

It could definitely be considered a great harvest.

Lin Fan could not help but smile. “Not a bad harvest!”

When he raised his head, he saw a crystal clear chess set in front of him. He muttered, “I was planning to go to the jewelry store to buy Grandfather a birthday gift, but it seems like there’s no need for that now.”

By then, all the ingredients had been moved into the truck.

Lin Fan drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class and led the way. The truck followed behind him and headed straight to his hometown in Qing City.

…

In the capital, the Zhou family’s courtyard was filled with trees and flowers that were in full bloom.

The Zhou family’s old master, Zhou Guotao, sipped his tea and played with the parrot. He was very pleased.

At this time last year, Zhou Guotao was bedridden.

His body was still very weak, and he could not be this relaxed.

Now, the only reason he was able to do so was that Lin Fan had fed him Medical Water.

Not only did the Medical Water save Zhou Guotao from the gates of hell, but it also cured many of his illnesses.

At this moment, the second son of the Zhou family, Zhou Shihong, walked over and said, “Old man, there’s some news from Jiang province.”

“Oh? Let me see,” Zhou Guotao said.

Zhou Shihong handed over a stack of documents.

Zhou Guotao slowly opened it. His old face, which was as calm as an ancient well, moved slightly at first, then revealed a look of surprise that could not be concealed.

“He solved two difficult math problems but didn’t report it. Then, he saved Qin Weiming’s grandson… Lin Fan, you’re even more amazing than I thought!”

Zhou Shihong, who was standing beside him, was greatly shocked.

One had to know that the reason why the Zhou family had become a top family was all due to Old Master Zhou’s efforts!

Old Master Zhou had seen countless talents in his life, and his vision was definitely higher than the sky!

Now, he had such a high evaluation of a young man in his 20s!

It was simply unimaginable!

“In the past, I thought that I should slowly get closer to Lin Fan. But now, it doesn’t seem appropriate!” Zhou Guotao muttered.

“Lin Fan’s grandfather is going to celebrate his 70th birthday in two days, right?”

At that moment, Zhou Shihong was still immersed in the old man’s evaluation of Lin Fan. He was unable to extricate himself.

“Yes,” he responded after a while.

Zhou Guotao nodded his head and said, “Lin Fan saved my life. It’s only right for me to personally pay a visit to his grandfather to celebrate his birthday with him…”

As soon as he said that, Zhou Shihong, who was standing at the side, felt as if a storm had been set off in his heart. He was extremely shocked!

One had to know…

The Zhou family was one of the most powerful families in Hua Nation, and Old Master Zhou was the head of the Zhou family!

All these years, Old Master Zhou rarely appeared at top-notch banquets, let alone attended birthday parties!

Now, he was going to personally go to the village of Qing City to celebrate Lin Fan’s grandfather’s birthday? It was only his 70th birthday too?

One had to know that Old Master Zhou himself was already close to 80 years old!
