Chapter 810 - 810 Influence

810 Influence
They did not expect to meet the people from the family of the Dinglong Corporation’s chairman. Thinking about it, they sighed. It was really a blessing in disguise.

At the same time, they were quite glad. This was an opportunity that many people could not wish for. How honored were they to be able to eat with the family of the Dinglong Corporation’s family? If word got out, who knew how many people would be envious?

One had to know that in private, just a chance to eat with the chairman of the Dinglong Corporation had already been pushed to the top of the rankings by many people. This opportunity was really too rare.

Not long after they sat down, the attendant walked in and brought over a few cups of the best Pu’er tea in the shop. She placed them in front of everyone one by one. The fragrance of the tea filled the air, adding a hint of silence to the cold weather.

Ye Xuan picked up the teacup to warm his hands. He smelled the fragrance of the tea and nodded.

“Yes, this is good tea.”

“If Chairman Ye likes it, I still have some collections at home. I can give them to you to try.”

CEO Zhou held his teacup and smiled.

When the other CEOs saw that CEO Zhou had said so, they echoed.

“I have some good tea too. If Chairman Ye doesn’t mind, I’m willing to serve it with both hands.”

“Looks like Chairman Ye is also a person who likes good tea. Coincidentally, I also have some good tea that I’ve kept for a long time. I’ll definitely visit you another day.”

Seeing how polite the CEOs were, Ye Xuan hurriedly smiled and rejected them.

“CEOs, you’re really too polite. There’s no need for that. There are still many tea leaves at home. If we accept more, we really won’t be able to finish drinking them. Hehe.”

Upon hearing this, the CEOs understood Ye Xuan’s tactful rejection, so they smiled and nodded to express their understanding.

At this moment, the door opened again. The attendants brought the hot dishes over and placed them on the table one after another. After serving the last dish, the lead attendant bowed to everyone and smiled.

“Sirs, the hot dishes have been served and the drinks have been served. If you need anything, just let us know. We’ll be outside.”

With that, she turned around and walked out.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan didn’t waste any time and looked at the CEOs.

“Then let’s start eating. Let’s try the taste of the fish we caught today. The food in this restaurant is served quite quickly.”

With that, he got up and sat down at the table with his sisters. The CEOs also took their seats one after another, followed by the young masters and young ladies.

“This restaurant serves dishes quickly. We often like to eat here.”

Young Master Zhou spoke cautiously. He seemed like a hothead. Clearly, he had not experienced much.

Compared to Ye Xuan’s calmness, the difference was like heaven and earth.

He seemed to understand this and admired Ye Xuan even more. He didn’t know how Ye Xuan could be so calm at his age.
“It’s good that the dishes are served quickly. Come, come, come. Everyone, don’t hold back.”

Ye Xuan shouted. Then, he picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish. The other CEOs were not in a hurry. They poured a glass of wine and stood up.

“Chairman Ye, let me toast you with this cup. Since we met, it’s really fate. This cup of wine is disrespectful.”

“Chairman Ye, I, Yang, will also toast you. I’ll drink up. Do as you please!”

“Chairman Ye, let me toast you!”

Ye Xuan used tea as wine and drank a few cups in a row. He felt that he was about to be full.

After drinking it, he began to eat the fish with his chopsticks.

…

After a while, everyone was full. Ye Xuan’s stomach was small, so he didn’t eat much. The CEOs usually socialized a lot and had a lot of oil in their stomachs, so they didn’t eat much. They just wanted to taste the food.

There was no need to mention his sisters. Girls were reserved and rarely ate, so they were more or less the same.

As for the young masters, they naturally couldn’t eat much, and no one had a big appetite, so it was still quite normal.

After eating and drinking his fill, Ye Xuan moved to the sofa and sat down. The tea had been changed by the attendant. After eating, he drank a cup of fragrant and famous tea. The taste simply made him as happy as a god.

“Is Chairman Ye also here to participate in the North Lake Great Hunt?”

A CEO picked up his teacup and took a sip of hot tea. Then, he continued.

“The Great Hunt event is quite big.”

The other CEOs nodded in agreement.

When Ye Xuan heard this, he was at a loss. What great hunt event?

“Ahem, about this great hunt activity. What kind of activity is this?”

Ye Xuan asked in confusion. When the CEOs saw this, they were stunned for a moment before answering with a smile.

“Oh, Chairman Ye just came here and doesn’t know. This is an annual lake fish fishing event. If we can bid for the head fish, it means that the lake god will bless us and we’ll be lucky.”

“The head fish?”

Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment before continuing.

“It’s the first fish to be caught, right?”

“Exactly. That’s what I mean. Speaking of which, there’s such a story.”

CEO Yang picked up his teacup and took a sip. Then, he continued.

“On our side, there’s a rumor that there was a person who was especially good at fishing. It was said that he could catch at least a boatful of fish every time he went out to sea. At that time, it was different from now. There was no technology at all, so everyone was very impressed. However, later on, another person who was especially good at fishing appeared. His momentum gradually surpassed that of the first person. Moreover, this person was very honest and treated his fellow villagers very well. Every time he came back from fishing, he would give some to everyone. At that time, he was poor, so everyone supported him.”

“The first fishing master was very unconvinced. He felt that this person had broken his rules and snatched his benefits because the fish caught by the first fishing master were all sold to everyone. At this moment, he couldn’t sell them.”

Another CEO also interrupted. He took a sip of tea and continued.

“Then, he organized a fishing competition to see who caught more fish. From now on, the place would be under the control of whoever caught more fish. This is how the fishing competition was derived.”

“As for the head fish, it was at that time. The honest one caught the first fish at the beginning of the competition. I said that he caught the fish, but the fish jumped into the boat on its own. The villagers said that the river god had appeared. The river god had to help this honest fishing master.”

“That’s why it’s slowly passed down that the head fish will be protected by the river god and be lucky. That’s why there’s such a custom.”

Upon hearing this, the story was almost finished. Ye Xuan roughly understood the source. Then, he took a sip of tea and nodded.

“This story is quite interesting, but if you ask me, this head fish is so stupid. Eating it won’t affect my intelligence.”
