Chapter 262 The icing on the cake On his left, a young man who looked somewhat similar to him was also flipping through his phone out of boredom. This man was his cousin and also his assistant. The one on the right is a girl with beautiful appearance and extraordinary temperament. There are two boxes on the table in front of her. The girl’s eyes are always on the boxes, as if there is something on them that can particularly attract her. "Brother, we didn't even do the live broadcast today, but we came all the way to meet this Boss Du, and brought such an expensive gift. Is it necessary?" The cousin was a little bored as he was browsing on his phone, so he put the phone on the table and started asking questions about Brother Quan. His words did not attract Brother Quan, but they attracted the attention of the girl next to him. Seeing that Brother Quan was still staring at his phone without any response, the cousin spoke again: “I really admire this Boss Du. To be honest, he doesn’t do live broadcasts, otherwise his fan growth would definitely be even more terrifying than ours. But that's why he didn't even register an account, and he even stopped being active online. Even if he has real skills, it's almost useless to us. Do we need to spend so much energy to come here?" "We are now cautious every day, always talking about charity, animal protection, and positive energy. We have even changed treasure appraisal to treasure appreciation. Why do you think that is?" After listening to his cousin's words, Brother Quan asked questions in return, but he had no expression on his face while speaking, and he didn't even raise his head. He continued to look at the chat interface on his phone that had no reply. "Isn't it because we are developing too fast and touching the interests of too many peers, so these people want to mess with us?" When my cousin talked about this, he also frowned and pursed his lips. He might be a little lazy and a little cunning, but he is not stupid. These things are circulated on the Internet, so he can naturally see it.
“You should read less of those useless public accounts. What you said is not fundamental. We will expand the treasure appraisal business and let more people pay attention to it. It will only benefit and not harm our peers. Not only our peers, but even those who make counterfeit goods and handicrafts are all part of the same industry chain. If we become bigger, they will all benefit from it.” After saying this, Brother Quan pushed his glasses up. "That's right. In the past, who would watch people appraising treasures? Those live broadcasts of treasure appraisal only had a few thousand people watching. But cousin, you have risen to prominence and have tens of millions of fans. The fans of those live broadcasts of treasure appraisal have all increased exponentially. You have even made silver dollars and copper coins popular. Even those who make handcrafted mountain ghost coins are making a lot of money." My cousin didn’t have much of his own opinion, but when he heard what Brother Quan said made sense, he immediately nodded. "Chairman, who is dissatisfied with us?" The girl next to him was also fascinated by what was being said and couldn't help but ask a question. "Who else could it be? We young people today use the Internet to appraise treasures, which is to unveil this layer of mystery that has been deliberately wrapped up. The people who can't accept it the most are naturally those high-ranking experts. It can be authenticated online, without deposit or fees, and it can prevent scams and even avoid being swapped. Haha, in a few years, all those people with shady ideas will be eliminated by the times, and naturally these people will be the most restless. " When Quan Geshui spoke, there was a sneer on his face. He went from live streaming at the beginning to having tens of millions of fans now. Luck, strength, and brains are all indispensable, so he naturally sees things clearly. "So what does this have to do with this Boss Du?" The cousin understood what Brother Quan said, but still didn't understand how this had anything to do with his cousin lowering himself so low to meet Du Ruo. He admitted that Du Ruo was indeed amazing, but they had only met once during a live broadcast. Why was Brother Quan so sure that Du Ruo could help him out of his predicament that Brother Quan was even willing to pay such a high price? Others may not know, but he knew clearly that in addition to bringing antiques from the company as gifts, his cousin also brought something special. "The reason why we are being controlled but have no way to fight back is that our foundation is too shallow, we rose too fast, and we don't have strong connections behind us, so now we can only be cautious in what we say and do." Having said that, Brother Quan stopped talking. My cousin wasn’t stupid either, so he didn’t ask any more questions. To be honest, the one who regrets the most now is Brother Quan. If he had called Du Ruo or even sent a message before the anti-counterfeiting anchor went to find Du Ruo, he would not be in such a passive position now. But there is no other way. If we fail to help those who need it most, we can only add icing on the cake, even if it costs a little more. In fact, he was just like other netizens at the beginning. He thought that Du Ruo might just be better at kung fu, but he didn't expect that there would be official support behind Du Ruo.
Apart from anything else, there is not a single video on the Internet that defames or questions Du Ruo. As an Internet celebrity, Brother Quan knows better than anyone the complexity of the human heart behind the phone. Keyboard warriors are everywhere, and there are definitely quite a few who want to rely on Du Ruo to gain traffic. Many people dare to do anything for traffic or profit. No one would believe that these people dare not slander Du Ruo, so there is no relevant information on the Internet. We can only say that there is an invisible big hand controlling all remarks that are unfavorable to Du Ruo. He discovered this through trial and error himself. He noticed something was wrong a few days ago and asked someone to post a video questioning Du Ruo, but the video was banned as soon as it was posted. He immediately understood how powerful Du Ruo was, but he was the only one who knew about this experiment, not even his cousin. Otherwise, he is not stupid. He would not rush to come and give gifts to others. It can even be said that he is a little humble. He is just taking a gamble, betting that Du Ruo can help him rise to the top. "Ding ~" At this moment, the cell phone that Brother Quan had been holding vibrated. Brother Quan's eyes immediately lit up and he read the message on it word by word. "Cousin, ask the restaurant to prepare the best food right away, and also get the box of wine from the trunk of my car." Brother Quan sent the location and began to give orders. "Sisi, you don't have to say anything, just pour us some wine. I've asked around, and this Boss Du isn't a womanizer. He just likes wine and martial arts, and maybe he even likes weapons, so don't worry. I brought you here mainly because if I get drunk, please take me back. My cousin is not very reliable." After his cousin left, Brother Quan spoke to the girl next to him. Knowing that Du Ruo loved drinking, he was ready to risk his life to accompany her. Sisi is just an employee in his company, but because she is a veteran and followed him from the beginning, he brought her here this time. …… "Cousin, we won't be staying here tonight. A friend is coming from another city and has booked a restaurant. We have to go meet him." Du Ruo replied to Brother Quan and asked him to send the location of the restaurant, and then prepared to say goodbye to his cousin and the others. This time they came here to wish their cousin a happy birthday, but also because they were curious about how her cousin was doing. Now that they have discovered that she is doing well, they will not disturb her any further. The main reason was that Du Ruo was also curious about the purpose of Brother Quan inviting him. If the invitation sent out yesterday was just a courtesy, or the host wanted to show hospitality, but he came here today on his own initiative, then there must be something going on. The other party also helped with the appraisal last time. Du Ruo felt that the other party was so sincere that it would not be good to refuse directly. He simply went back to meet him. Anyway, he could still eat and drink for free, and it would not affect him at all. "That's it, okay then." When the cousin heard Du Ruo say this, she didn't stay any longer. Du Ruo and the other two left her cousin's house, and Li Qiyao was still driving, heading towards the location sent by Brother Quan. "Honey, do you think my cousin is pregnant with a boy or a girl?" This time, Xiang Yuanyuan did not sit in the passenger seat, but sat in the back seat, leaning on Du Ruo, and asked Du Ruo curiously. "How would I know? It's still so small, probably no bigger than an egg, how can I tell its gender?" Du Ruo was speechless. Xiang Yuanyuan treated him as a god and really thought he knew everything. "So, husband, do you like boys or girls?" Xiang Yuanyuan didn't actually drink much, but she took advantage of the alcohol to start asking Du Ruo about topics that they wouldn't normally talk about.
"I like my daughter more." Du Ruo looked at Xiang Yuanyuan and answered casually, but his face was full of doting. As for having a son or a daughter, it was the same in his eyes, but if he had a daughter, he would definitely spoil her. "Well, but why can't I get pregnant? Honey, do you think we should go to the hospital for a check-up?" Xiang Yuanyuan touched her lower abdomen, frowned, and leaned close to Du Ruo's ear, asking in a low voice that only the two of them could hear. The two of them didn't take any measures, but there was no response, which made her a little worried. She wondered if it was due to her long-term alcoholism. "No need, you, relax. We have only been together for a short time. If it really doesn't work, we can go to the hospital after we get married if it still doesn't work." When Du Ruo heard Xiang Yuanyuan say this, he couldn't help but frown. To be honest, he had actually thought about this question too. I don’t know if it’s because of the transformation of the “spirit” that makes it difficult to stay. "I don't think so. I haven't left the realm of human yet. The last transformation only changed my hair and skin. I don't think there will be any reproductive barriers." Both of them felt that it might be their own problem, but it was difficult to talk about such things in detail, and they didn't want their relationship or future to be affected by this reason. The car gradually fell silent again. Only Li Qiyao occasionally glanced at the rearview mirror, watching the two of them being so affectionate, and couldn't help feeling a little jealous. Li Qiyao drove steadily and was not in a hurry. It took her about twenty minutes to get from her cousin's house to the restaurant booked by Brother Quan. "Boss Du, boss lady, I finally see you in person. The boss lady is so beautiful. I wonder if you have any unmarried cousins. If there are any suitable ones, please remember to introduce them to me." Brother Quan had been waiting downstairs. As soon as the three of them parked the car and got out, Brother Quan came forward and greeted them warmly. (End of this chapter)
