Chapter 699 (1/2)

Los Angeles, Santa Monica.

Located at the end of Highway 1, the dream castle on Marbury beach welcomes three special guests.

”General manager, director... Do you know what they're doing here?” In the room, Li Zitao, who was reading with his wife, stood up.

”They said they came to visit.” Dan followed him with his head down.

”Let them wait in the reception hall first.” Li Zitao said and turned to the study. Fortunately, he had foresight and prepared a study next door to his bedroom.

Ten minutes later, Li learned from Paul Mellon that the purpose of the group was to negotiate with Washington on currency issues.

Paul no longer served as treasury secretary. His term of office lasted only half a year. He retired after the federal government completed $3 billion in funding.

Later, Li Zi Tao learned that this was his deal with Roosevelt. The current finance minister was Hunter Morgenthau Jr., a personal friend of the president.

Although Paul has retired, he still has some contacts in the Ministry of finance, and soon got the news.

”Autumn wind?” After expressing his thanks to Paul, Li Zitao hung up the phone and hesitated a little, but decided to meet the visitor.

When he arrived at the reception hall in person, it was an hour and a half before the three people came to the door, and their patience was disappearing.

But when they met Li Zitao, none of them showed any impatience or sarcasm.

Controlling expression and emotion is the most basic skill of a politician. If he can't do this, how can Xijing government send them to negotiate with Washington.

”Sit down, please.” After a brief introduction, Li Zitao invited the three to sit down again as the host, and Dan also changed the tea for the table.

”Try it. It's from home.” Li Zitao raised his hand and indicated that the tea he used was from the mother tree of Wuyishan Dahongpao.

”Authentic Dahongpao is rare even in China now...” Chen Guang held a cup of tea and looked at it in surprise.

”What?” Seeing his strange reaction, Guo Wen also curiously gathered tea cups in front of him.

”This, this is the phoenix of Yue Kiln?” Chen Guang looked up at Li Zitao in an uncertain tone. The reason why he was not sure was that the tea cup in his hand was too perfect.

”Manager Chen loves collecting too?” Putting down the celadon tea cup the size of his palm in his hand, Li Zitao said with a smile: ”yes, this is a set of Yue Kiln made in the middle of the Tang Dynasty. I bought it from the auction house.”

The three people's faces became strange. When they used the tea cups of the Tang Dynasty to greet the guests, they were not afraid of damage, or did they not care at all?

Thinking of all kinds of rare antiques, priceless works of art, and Dunhuang murals in the front hall and corridor, the three of them took a long time to wake up from the shock, and now they seem to be taken back in an instant.

They are so rich that the castle they live in alone is enough to make people look red.

When I saw it in the newspaper, I didn't think that only when I stood in front of the castle could I feel its majestic grandeur. It was just like returning to the middle ages.

”Mr. Li's achievements in America are really enviable.” Gu Bing shook his head and put the tea cup down with emotion.

It's just a little bit more careful than before. After all, it's an object of the Tang Dynasty. It's not that he can't afford it. It's a pity that it's broken.

”Some of the achievements have been misrepresented and cannot be taken seriously.” Li Zitao laughed to himself, satisfied with their response.
