C539 Top Party
C539 Top Party
No words could describe the grand occasion that was happening today in the Lu Family.
Compared to today's Lu Family, the usual high-end parties were simply a gathering of earth leopards, and simply could not be compared in any way.
Those who were able to obtain a seat in the small courtyard of Lu Family were all business heavyweights, influential figures in the political scene and elites in the Martial Arts Realm.
The few billion rich merchants could only leave in a hurry after putting down their gifts.
As the mayor of the capital, he only had a seat because of his daughter's relationship with Lu Fanfeng.
As for Martial Arts Realm, even if it was a Ranker in the top fifty of the Dark Ranking, he could only call himself a junior in front of Lu Fanfeng.
As time passed, the center of the birthday celebration was moved from the main hall to where Lu Fanfeng was.
Here, one could find representatives of the new aristocracy of the island, the leaders of Japanese Socialist Party, the envoys from the Central Plains, the commander-in-chief of the army, the governor of Jinxi Province, the super rich and powerful people of the Central Plains, and the first sister of Entertainment Circle.
Almost all of the people from the Central Plains and the Island Country had appeared here.
However, among them, the real core were Lu Fanfeng and Lee Mengyao.
Due to their bloodline relationship with Lu Fanfeng, Old Master Lu and Lu Youjiu also sat at the table.
On the other hand, the lobby was like a forgotten corner.
The overbearing Lu Youde remained silent. The arrogant Lu Youcheng could only smile bitterly. As for the three aunts who liked to tease him about his family, they were now like frosted eggplants.
No one would have thought that Lu Fanfeng would have such a network. This had already exceeded the imaginations of many.
Lu Fanchen had left the birthday banquet early, there was already no place for him here.
Previously, he had thought that since the Bald Liu was strong, Lu Fanfeng would suffer a great loss at the hands of the Bald Liu.
But now, not only had Lu Fanfeng eliminated the Bald Liu, he even regained control of his Jingsheng Coal Mine.
Before even returning home, Lu Fanchen received a phone call.
On the other side of the phone, it was Vice-President Wang's cold voice. "Lu Fanchen, I'll formally inform you now, you have been expelled by Jingsheng Coal Mine!"
Hearing this, Lu Fanchen was shocked.
He himself didn't have any ability. If he didn't have Jingsheng Coal Mine, how could he have his current status, and how could he have his lovely wife's mansion?
"You can't do this, I'm Lu Fanfeng's cousin, aren't you afraid that Lu Fanfeng will find trouble with you?" It was only now that Lu Fanchen seemed to have realized this, that everything he was able to possess until now, was all because of Lu Fanfeng.
However, his memories might have been lost for a period of time. When he was feeling contented, when he mistakenly thought that Lu Fanfeng was poor and impoverished, he instead continuously added insult to injury when he was down.
"You don't need to find Mr Lu, this is what Mr Lu informed me about. Quickly come back and complete the departure formalities. Mr Lu ordered that you will be given an extra three months' salary!" Vice-President Wang said.
Lu Fanfeng was kind enough to give him an extra three months of salary so that he could overcome his difficulties and find a new job.
Just as Lu Fanchen hung up the phone, he saw that Lee Yaozu was so angry that he threw his phone away, "Just who did I offend, my boss just called, saying that it was an order from the higher ups of Galactic Real Estate to expel me!"
Lu Fanchen shook his head helplessly. Seeing Lee Yaozu's intelligence, he truly regretted joining up with Lee Yaozu.
On the other hand, throughout the journey, Lu Fanyan had not said a word.
Lu Fanyan's feelings towards Lu Fanchen were different. For a long time, Lu Fanyan felt that she was more than enough to go with Lu Fanfeng.
After all, the current him had over a million dollars in income every year, and countless people were envious of him.
But when she saw the real Lu Fanfeng, she realized that her small income was simply pitiful.
Different from their loss of soul, at this moment, within the small courtyard of Lu Family, there was a clamor and laughter.
Just that, amidst the laughter and cheers, Lu Fanfeng seemed to have something on his mind.
"Fan Feng, what are you thinking about?" Lee Mengyao asked gently. Being the first one to notice Lu Fanfeng's problem, she had been extremely careful.
With just a few simple words, he had instantly attracted the attention of many people. It must be known that this was a Master Lu that could single-handedly suppress an entire nation. His every action and action would affect the fate of many people.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that he could change the fate of his country with just a thought.
"I'm thinking …" Lu Fanfeng looked at the crowd, as though he was hesitating whether he should say it or not, but in the end, he chose to say it out, "I'm thinking, now that I have enjoyed all the glory, how can I let my clan prosper?"
If they were poor, they would do the best. If they were poor, they would help the whole world.
Lu Fanfeng still did not have the strength to make the people of the world rich.
However, he wanted his family to prosper and the Lu family to prosper.
"This matter is very simple!" Lee Mengyao laughed, "I will personally invest one billion in Apricot Village!"
The Lu Family did not have a lot of people, after all, even with all the people in Apricot Village, there were less than a thousand people, and among them, there were less than three hundred Lu Family clansmen.
Even if the three hundred of them were included, giving a billion dollars to each of them was a tremendous amount of wealth.
Lee Mengyao took the lead, and the others naturally followed suit. In a short moment, everyone had contributed over fifty billion to the Lu Family.
Among them, Mu Tianrui, a representative of the Central Plains government and special envoy of the Central Plains, contributed the most, amounting to $15 billion.
And Japanese Prime Minister, Furui Kikugi, was also willing to donate ten billion US dollars.
Shi Mann and Mitsui Tomomi contributed three billion each.
The others were more or less generous.
50 billion was simply an astronomical figure for ordinary people. They might not even be able to spend all of it in their lives.
However, in Lu Fanfeng's opinion, this amount of money was far from enough.
"It's better to accept them than to give them to the fishes. Giving them money is not good!" Lu Fanfeng said. After what happened to Lu Fanchen, he understood that if he were to directly pay, he would only be able to nurture an ingrate.
Only by giving them the real power could these people fundamentally escape poverty.
"This matter is far from over. It is definitely not something that can be accomplished overnight!" Lee Mengyao advised.
It was easy to get rich overnight, but training true nobles required several generations of joint efforts.
Amongst the people present, the only one who could be called a noble was Mitsui Tomomi.
The others, even if it was Lee Mengyao, had only flourished for three generations.
"If you want to make people from the Lu Family fundamentally free from poverty, you need to receive a good education. However, it's very difficult to find a good teacher!" Lu Fanfeng said somewhat helplessly.
"Actually, there's someone beside us!" Lee Mengyao said as she looked at Huang Yuexue who was sitting in the corner, "She is the most suitable person!"
Huang Yuexue had known Lu Fanfeng for no less than she did, and Lee Mengyao could also tell that Huang Yuexue's feelings for Lu Fanfeng were different.
Just how dangerous was the previous Tokyo War, yet, Huang Yuexue had resolutely rushed to the island to support Lu Fanfeng. This was sufficient proof of her feelings towards Lu Fanfeng.
