Chapter 59: Texas Cowboys
After Sotheby’s came out, Ye Tian and Jason went their separate ways.
Ye Tian drove to meet Bowie, while Jason returned to Barney's second-hand shop, showed Barney the antique photos, and asked him to contact various antique dealers to find real buyers.
Ye Tian has no worries about Barney’s work enthusiasm. Under the temptation of a 10% commission, he will definitely be able to maximize his energy and find the buyer with the highest bid.
At half past twelve, Ye Tian walked into a high-end restaurant that he used to frequent.
Today Sunday, there are relatively few people in the restaurant, and the diners are dressed casually, with a relaxed and relaxed attitude, and are really enjoying life and enjoying food!
If it’s a working day, the dining time here is full of Wall Street elites in suits and leather shoes, especially hedge funds and investment banks.
At that time, it was not only a restaurant, but also a place for information exchange. Eating was a secondary matter, and obtaining valuable information was the main purpose.
Although there are few people, Ye Tian still saw a few familiar faces.
"Hey! Steven, long time no see! Where are you now? Hedge funds or investment banks?"
As soon as he walked in, a fat man with a nice smile came to him, who seemed very enthusiastic!
But this smiling face is so disgusting in Ye Tian's eyes.
This is the former company colleague, but they are not in the same department and the relationship is normal.
Of course he knows that he is on the industry blacklist, and it is impossible to find a job in hedge funds and investment banks. This is just asking knowingly, trying to sprinkle salt on his wounds, and seeing himself suffering!
A few weeks ago, he might be able to achieve his goal and make himself angry and painful.
But now there is no show at all, Ye Tian doesn't mind at all, and even thanks to the person who kicked him out of Wall Street!
"Hey! Fat John, long time no see, how are you doing? How are you? You are not still doing miscellaneous work for old Kevin, are you? I no longer work for others and become my own boss!"
Ye Tian smiled brilliantly, and didn't forget to hit the fat man back.
The smile on John's face froze for a moment, his face instantly became extremely ugly, ashen! Like a dead father!
Fat John is the nickname he hates most, and the time when he was doing miscellaneous work with old Kevin and being called to be a cattle messenger was the experience he least wanted to look back at.
But these were all mentioned in public by the **** in front of them, and the voice was loud, lest others might not hear it! How can this not make him angry and hateful!
At this time, he couldn't wait to rush forward and give Ye Tian's hateful smiling face an old punch. Only then can he relieve his hatred!
"hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter beside .
Everyone near the door heard what Ye Tian said and immediately laughed.
Amidst the laughter, someone greeted Ye Tian again.
"Hey! Steven, it's a good mess, I'm actually my own boss!"
"Hey! Anderson, I heard that you have been promoted. Congratulations! My business is just a little trouble, it can't compare to you, an investment bank manager!"
Ye Tian greeted him and walked past Fat John. He didn't pay any attention to the fat man any more, just as if he was nothing!
"Asshole!"
Fat John was already bluish with anger, and cursed in a low voice through gritted teeth.
greeted the people they knew in a circle, and after some polite greetings, Ye Tian came to the reserved seat.
This table is too familiar. As long as my group comes to this restaurant, they are all sitting here. This is a special seat!
sat down at the dining table, he immediately felt emotional, and he couldn't help thinking back to the scene of sitting here before.
There have been too many things here, laugh, discuss, fight wine, celebrate success, taste failure! Even with other companies, other departments, fight, and so on.
"It's been a long time! Steven, welcome to walk into Phil's restaurant again. What can I have today? Today we are focusing on French black pepper steak, you can try it, it's very good!"
Thoughts were interrupted by the crisp voice of the beautiful waiter.
"Kate, it's been a long time! You are still so beautiful and heartwarming!"
Ye Tian paused, and immediately smiled and teased the waitress.
"Hahaha, you are still so glib, do you need me to tell Phil this sentence? He will have a good talk with you!"
Kate smiled and trembled, and directly sacrificed her father's big killer.
Ye Tian quickly smiled and shook his head.
"Let this compliment be the secret of the two of us, there is no need to let old Phil know! Give me a latte first, and order later, I'm waiting for someone, Bowie will come over right away"
"Hahaha, well, I keep this secret! Wait a minute, coffee will come soon"
Kate smiled and left the table, Ye Tian took out his mobile phone and started contacting Bowie, he was almost time to come.
"Boie, this is Steven, I'm already at Phil's restaurant, how long will you be there?"
"I will be there soon, is it still the old seat?"
"Yes, old seat, see you later!"
……
Coffee came soon, and Ye Tian ordered Bowie again.
After working together for a few years, he naturally knows what coffee Bowie likes to drink.
Afterwards, he drank coffee and waited for Bowie. Ye Tian was quite curious about what this old friend looked like now. It is probably the same as before he fell into the water, down and out, frustrated, and hopeless!
Before long, Bowie appeared at the door of the restaurant, opened the door and said hello to others, then walked straight here.
Obviously, Bowie has deliberately cleaned up today. His hair and beard are well maintained, his suit and leather shoes are meticulous, and he looks like the Wall Street elite before.
But people with a discerning eye can see the difference in an instant, and the expression of mental temperament cannot be concealed by external appearance.
At this time, Bowie doesn't have the confidence and hopeful spirit in his eyes anymore. His eyes are more hesitant, frustrated, and lonely.
"It seems that life is not a small blow to this kid! Not at all lighter than myself!"
Ye Tian sighed to himself, then stood up and walked out of the seat, opening his arms and smiling to Bowie.
"Texas Cowboys! We meet again, let's have a long-lost hug!"
"Hahaha, Steven, I almost forgot what you looked like!"
Bowie walked over with a smile, and gave Ye Tian a warm hug.
"Why are you late? You are a punctual person! This surprised me!"
"Actually, I came here a long time ago, but I don't have any money, so I would dare to enter this kind of high-end restaurant! In case you have something to do with you, then I won't be completely waxing! I can't afford to lose that person!"
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately laughed.
"Hahaha, it turned out to be like this, don’t worry, I’ll treat you today and open it up!"
"Of course! I heard David say, your kid is rich, but who will you kill? I have to enjoy the gourmet restaurant today! It's been a long time!"
With a few greetings, the two went back to the dining table and sat down.
"Wow! As soon as I sat here, I remembered a lot of things before, just like a lifetime!"
Bowie said with emotion, while constantly looking at the table and the other seats.
Seeing his performance, Ye Tian smiled and said:
"Me too, this is our fixed table, with many memories"
While talking, Bowie’s coffee was delivered.
He talked a few words with Kate, but he was a bit more restrained than before, and he looked a bit restrained and shrunk!
Kate left, Ye Tian immediately laughed and joked.
"Bowie, it's not like you! You used to flush Kate's cheesy face every time, and you hated that old Phil was about to bomb you with Remington. You are so honest today? Don’t you want to chase Kate, this performance is useless!"
"I can't even support myself. How can I be qualified to pursue Kate, let's find a job first, let's talk about it!"
Bowie explained with a wry smile, lonely in his tone.
"Yes! Survival is a problem, how dare to talk about love extravagantly!"
Ye Tian put away his smile, sighed, and then he asked:
"Didn't you go to the Pennsylvania Regional Bank for an interview, what was the result?"
Bowie shook his head disappointedly and gritted his teeth and said:
"The interview went well at first, and they were very satisfied with my professional knowledge, but then they learned that I was on the industry blacklist, and immediately turned upside down and rejected me directly, leaving no room at all. It's **** damn!"
This result was as early as Ye Tian expected, and he had experienced it before, and he has a deep memory!
After cursed, Bowie looked at Ye Tian and asked curiously:
"Tell me about you! David said that you are now a professional treasure hunter, with very good grades, and really found a treasure! What is going on here? How did you become a professional treasure hunter? It sounds too mysterious to believe! "
"Hahaha, incredible, right? But it's an indisputable fact, and I like my current career very much, it's more interesting than on Wall Street.
This is a long story, so let’s order food first, and I’ll explain it to you in detail later. After listening, maybe you will be interested in this industry too"
Ye Tian smiled and explained a few words, then turned off the subject, raised his hand and called Kate over.
The two are very familiar with this restaurant. They don't need to look at the menu at all. They just reported a few favorites, and it's the signature here.
