Chapter 538

Manhattan, New York, is a favorite residential area for the rich. North to east along the world's famous Central Park is the famous upper east side of New York. Here gathered the rich in finance and investment banking.

Some people say that here in the Upper East District, you can see the moment when wisdom turns into wealth, and you can also see the ashes flying overnight. This is indeed the case.

Many surnames living here come and go and come again, which can only be called temporary prominence. Among them, several surnames are synonymous with long-term prosperity. They are mysterious, long-lasting and ancient, holding enormous wealth in their hands.

Tang Jingyun squints at the passing roads, starting from 59th Street in New York in the south, 96th street in the north, Fifth Avenue in the West and the Easter River in the East. The places described by these streets are the so-called Upper East District.

She came to the totas family today at Catherine's invitation. The totas family is one of the prosperous families in the upper east side of Manhattan. The vast house located here is also an extremely considerable wealth in the upper east side.

Perhaps someone said hello in advance. Tang Jingyun's car was not intercepted at the gate, but drove Mei Si in and went directly inside.

"Oh, Tang Jingyun, I'm so glad you can agree to my invitation!"

As soon as Tang Jingyun got out of the car, she heard Catherine's happy voice. A sincere smile appeared on her face. She looked very enthusiastic. Her golden hair was shining in the sun, making her already bright facial features look more beautiful.

Tang Jingyun raised her eyebrows and smiled at the woman who came. The smile made Catherine lose her mind for a moment. "Thank you. It's my honor to receive your invitation. How can I not come?"

Catherine recovered and exclaimed, "Tang Jingyun, you should smile more. You smile so beautiful, you know? It makes me seem to see the illusion of an angel!"

Tang Jingyun didn't reply. In fact, she couldn't bear the enthusiastic praise of foreigners.

"Go! Tang Jingyun, I specially ordered the cook to cook Chinese food today!"

Catherine took Tang Jingyun's hand and went in.

When Catherine knew that Tang Jingyun was also surnamed Tang, the first reaction in her heart was that it was so. At least she knows something about oriental culture. She knows that she and Tang lingzheng have the same surname, which may not be occasional. This can explain why these two people have similar temperament from time to time.

As for why the relationship between the two is so delicate, Catherine guessed that the Tang family is also a big family, and she has a bad relationship with her relatives in the family.

Sure enough, today Catherine entertained Tang Jingyun with a table of authentic Chinese food. Although she hasn't tasted it yet, it's excellent to see "color", "aroma" and "shape". I think Catherine really bothered.

When a meal is finished and Catherine plans to get closer to Tang Jingyun, a slow guest arrives, breaking Catherine's original plan.

"Grandpa, how did you come here?" Catherine showed a surprise smile and ran to hold an old man with a friendly gesture.

"It's said that my little Catherine is entertaining friends. Naturally, she wants to have a look." the old man smiled at Catherine with a gentle look, but this can't hide his strong momentum.

Then he turned and looked at Tang Jingyun. His rich emerald green eyes made people hair in his heart. Of course, this does not include Tang Jingyun.

Tang Jingyun just stood up and said gently, "Hello, old Mr. totas."

To say the man in front of us, it is a legendary existence in the totas family. A hundred years ago, the totas family was only a second rate family, but it was precisely because of the presence of the old man that the family flourished for 60 years, and there was a trend of enduring prosperity.

"Hello, little guy. It seems that you are not afraid of me." the old man was helped to the master by Catherine and smiled.

"No, you have the qualities of people in the Mississippi River Basin, such as courage, fearlessness, determination, and adventurous spirit. Of course, you inherited the excellent qualities of so many ancestors, cruelty is also engraved in your bones, and ferocity is your norm. I think few people are completely not afraid to stand in front of you."

Tang Jingyun stood up and said respectfully to the old man, saying something indifferent that didn't match the meaning.

It is true that she has respect for him but no fear.

The old man in front of us was once regarded as the most outstanding man in the Mississippi basin. This man led the rise of the totas family and was the proud object of the whole Mississippi people.

Old totas's eyes flashed surprise. He stroked his beard and couldn't help shaking his head. "No one has mentioned my past for many years," he said with emotion, staring at Tang Jingyun. "I almost forgot that I was a man from the Mississippi River."

"Really, I think people like you can never forget their origin." Tang Jingyun smiled. "After all, their identity can be forgotten and their surname can be changed, but their temperament and galloping blood can never be changed."

Old totas looked at Tang Jingyun and wanted to see through something in her eyes, but unfortunately, he couldn't see what he wanted to see, and then smiled on his old face, "has anyone told you that you are actually a strange little girl?"

Tang Jingyun bent her eyes. "Yes, but I'm such a person, aren't I?"

Wisdom flashed through old totas's rich emerald green eyes and said, "People always change, just as the value of goods will not remain the same. They are always appreciating or devaluing. Young people, you may start to see through the things you think will never change. You see, it's like the area you stepped on. A hundred years ago, it could be bought with tens of thousands of dollars A huge territory, and in the next few decades, tens of thousands of dollars can't afford to buy a toilet here! But who can think that it will depreciate one day? "

From the fifth avenue to the East and Lexington Avenue to the west, it is the most expensive and popular residential area in New York. It is known as the "Gold Coast" of New York. It is home to the richest people in New York and is a real rich area.

But later, this area was threatened by the reputation of the later rising Tribeca district and West Village District of Manhattan. The suddenly rising price fell like a bird whose throat was strangled. At that time, I don't know how many Manhattan rich who invested in real estate were distressed. Even if the house prices here continued to rise later, it still became a lesson for the older generation of Manhattan The experience mentioned in the first generation.

Tang Jingyun naturally knew this story and heard that old totas meant something. She just smiled faintly, "I have said many times that when people are young, no one can beat her. You see, I am still so young, and I still have a lot of time to waste. To be disrespectful, people like you who are half buried in the loess are always more worried about their behavior than we are young. Just like the environment in the Upper East District, they are also easy to be conservative."

The upper east rich area of Manhattan not only represents the residential area of the richest people in New York, but also permeates with the smell of money and conservative values. Of course, this does not mean how bad Manhattan is, but has a sophisticated charm tempered by capital and time.

Old totas naturally understood the meaning of Tang Jingyun's words and couldn't help feeling that the Oriental woman in front of him was interesting. She used Manhattan as a metaphor, but she also took herself into the army and gave birth to a pair of smart teeth.

Two people like this, you come and I go. If Catherine sitting on one side is not shocked, it must be false.

She is deeply loved by old totas, which can make her sit firmly in her current position. But it is because of this that she understands the horror of the old man better than others. Before that, she never thought that someone would talk to the old man like this. The needle tip and wheat awn between their careless words made her feel a sense of awe.

Looking at Tang Jingyun like this, a kind of jealousy rose at the bottom of her heart for the first time, which was similar to why she could do this and I couldn't. But the mood soon dissipated, because she knew that the Oriental woman was too powerful.

She fears the strong, not because she is jealous of the strong.

"Well, little girl from the East, please tell me what your purpose here is?" old totas stared into Tang Jingyun's eyes as if to see through her.

But Tang Jingyun's eyes are full of waves, like a vast water, which can't stir up ripples.

"I thought I had made it very clear. In fact, it was very simple. I just wanted to destroy the Lawrence family, that's all." Tang Jingyun frowned and said faintly, but in that plain tone, there was a storm like prelude.

Hiss - Catherine breathed silently in her heart. She didn't expect Tang Jingyun to say such an unexpected purpose!

Although Lawrence is not a century old family, she is also the top force among the rising upstarts. What confidence does she have that she can compete with a family? Let alone destroy it?!

But to Catherine's surprise, her grandfather didn't say "arrogant" and then left with his sleeve. Instead, he thought about it with interest.

Such an expression made Katherine unable to resist her silent stomach Fei. God, why did she see a feeling of excitement in her grandfather's eyes? After looking at the cunning Tang Jingyun with a smiling face, she suddenly remembered that her grandfather had a fatal death, and suddenly a very bad premonition came up!

"Mr. totas, I just want to be angry. I don't have a deep foundation in the United States and need your protection. At that time, the property of the Lawrence family can be divided into 60% to you."

Sure enough, Tang Jingyun's words made Catherine cover her forehead and hair and let out a painful groan. Damn it, she no longer believes in oriental people. It's too cunning!

The most fatal weakness of old totas - love money like life!

He has a very famous theory, "give me 300% profit, I can kill the earth!"
