"Boss, I found that you have changed and become stingy. It was hard-won for a long trip to take economy class." At the airport, Zhu Yan despised Ji Fan fiercely.

"Okay, what's the best for first class cabin? There are few people in the open, not as good as economy class, and sometimes you can meet the beauty." Ji Fan said the truth. He really wanted to have a romantic encounter in the air, but unfortunately he saw a group of people...

"Oh, boss, it's really tall, I'm less than one ten thousand." Zhu Yan gave two thumbs up, and was almost overwhelmed.

"Okay, your friend should be here, don't let someone wait for a long time." Ji Fan walked towards the exit.

...

At this time, a business car parked outside the airport. A young man in his early twenties stood beside the car. He looked not tall, about 1.7 meters away, and was a typical southerner.

"Here, Zhu Yan" the young man saw Ji Fan and the others appear, so he waved.

Ji Fan and the others almost stopped walking after hearing this.

"Brother Penghao, long time no see you." Zhu Yan stretched out his hand and shook hands with Chen Penghao.

"Zhu Yan, long time no see," Chen Penghao also asked.

"Come on, let me introduce you. This is Ji Fan, my boss." Zhu Yan patted his chest and introduced.

"Hello, Mr. Ji" Chen Penghao stretched out his hand.

"Hello, Brother Penghao, just call me Ji Fan." Ji Fan also stretched out his hand and said politely at the same time.

"Well, get on the bus first. Today I will be a tour guide. Let you feel the charm of our Colorful Cloud South. We will go when the Maoshi Market opens tomorrow," said Chen Penghao.

"You are the host, you can do whatever you want," Zhu Yan said, and Ji Fan nodded.

...

There are many different opinions on the origin of the name of Caiyun. The most rumored is said to be the second year of Yuanfeng of the Western Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu opened the western area of ​​Nanyi and established 24 counties, with southern Yunnan as one of them. According to legend, when Emperor Wu set it into southern Yunnan, there was a rainbow at the extreme south end, so southern Yunnan was also called Caiyun.

...

A moment later, several people drove to a high-end leisure place called "Tingtai Bamboo Tower".

As the name suggests, this bamboo building is made of green bamboo structure. With its southern characteristics, it has a location surrounded by mountains and rivers, which has a sense of paradise.

Of course, people who can enter and exit here are either rich or noble. The membership fees they pay every year are scary, but this place is really the best choice for entertaining distinguished guests. Therefore, even the lowest-level bronze member is worthy of pride. The reason is that this bamboo house has an extraordinary background.

Chen Penghao showed off his silver card and the waiter led it into a private room. It was better to say that it was an independent pavilion than to say that it was a private room.

The entire bamboo building is designed with pavilions surrounding a stage-like large round platform, which has the charm of enjoying the dance. In addition, it is approaching dusk, and the yellow dimness falls in the green bamboo forest, making it even more brilliant.

Ji Fan thought this place was very good, and thought that he would build one by himself when he had time.

"Come on, Zhu Yan, Ji Fan orders the dishes first, and there are all the famous specialty dishes in southern Yunnan here," said Chen Penghao.

"Boss, the dragon meat I ate last time is very good. How many dishes should I have?" Zhu Yan said, his mouth unconsciously moistening, and at the same time, a thunderous light flashed at Chen Penghao.

"You kid, you know that the dragon meat is expensive, but you are still trying to cheat me of money." Chen Penghao laughed and scolded, but he did not hesitate and immediately asked the waiter to record the food. However, the waiter said with apologetic expression.

"Sorry, sir, there is only one portion of the dragon meat left."

"Oh? Why did it sell so fast today?" Chen Penghao was a little surprised. It would be fine if he said it was a farewell time, but this time he treated him, and as Zhu Yan, he was also considered a top young man in Jiangnan. But he had to call him the boss in front of Ji Fan, and the true respect from Zhu Yan's expression was not perfunctory. It can be seen that Ji Fan is definitely not an ordinary person. So he was a little reluctant to come to Taiwan.

"Brother Penghao, one serving is one serving. If you haven't done it today, just wait for the next time. Anyway, this bamboo building can't leave again." Ji Fan saw Chen Penghao's embarrassment, so he said in a humorous tone.

"That's right, Brother Penghao, with our relationship for so many years, there is no need to be so polite," Zhu Yan also spoke.

"Haha, it's my brother Menglang," Chen Penghao smiled, looking at Ji Fan with an unusual color.

So I ordered a few more famous dishes and asked the waiter to go down and prepare.

"Ji Fan, are you here this time trying to buy all gambling stones or half gambling stones?" Chen Penghao asked,

If you want to talk about all gambling stones and half gambling stones, Ji Fan must have been slandered a few days ago, but since Ji Fan decided to come to southern Yunnan, he naturally had some understanding of gambling stones.

"This time I mainly gambling stones. If there is a good-quality half-gambling stone, of course it is OK," Ji Fan replied.

Just as Chen Penghao was about to speak, an arrogant voice came from behind him, "Oh, why are you Mr. Chen? I heard that the three of you have to share a plate of dragon meat. I didn't expect that if you haven't seen each other for a few days, Mr. Chen became so stingy. What, why don't I give you a few servings? I ordered a few more servings today. Don't worry, you don't have to spend money, I'll treat you hahaha..."

Qin Yujian laughed endlessly, but when he saw Chen Penghao and others never looked at him from beginning to end, he couldn't help but scold him angrily.

"Don't be proud of yourself, wait for tomorrow's stone gambling conference, my Qin family will definitely defeat your Chen family and take away the throne of the Stone King, Humph." After that, Qin Yujian shook his hand and left.

"Make both of you laugh," Chen Penghao said apologetically.

"Haha, it's okay, it seems that this dragon meat is still the one who makes it," Ji Fan said with a smile.

Ji Fan heard the meaning of Qin Yujian's words.

"Well, I was ruined by a jumping clown," Chen Penghao said with a smile.

"Brother Penghao, this stone gambling conference is..." Ji Fan asked the question in his heart.

"This stone gambling conference was jointly organized by several major families in southern Yunnan. It has a history of many years. At this time, all major families in the jade industry will pick out three raw stones to compete. After untiing it, the stone king will be awarded based on the total value of the jade. The families that have won the title will get great benefits," Chen Penghao introduced.

"Brother Penghao's family has been awarded the Stone King for several years. I believe that the title of Stone King this time is also something in his pocket," said Zhu Yan on the side.

"Haha, thank you for Zhu Yan's auspicious words," Chen Penghao said with his fists, but a hint of worry flashed through the color.

"Brother Penghao, is there any difficulty?" Ji Fan, who was keen to attention, found something wrong and said carelessly.

When Chen Penghao heard Ji Fan's words, he was also stunned by Ji Fan's keen insight.

"It's okay, it's okay," Chen Penghao replied.

"Oh? Brother Penghao didn't find him..." Zhu Yan was about to finish speaking, but Ji Fan stopped him with his eyes. After all, this was a commercial secret.

"Haha, it makes you laugh," Chen Penghao said embarrassedly.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if I say it, because my Chen family is not unable to find good raw stones, but they are looking for them too well. They hesitate to take them out." Chen Penghao told the truth, causing Ji Fan and Zhu Yan to fall all over the ground.

"That's how the relationship is." Zhu Yan's mouth twitched a little.

"Since there is primitiveness, why are you still hesitating? Isn't it your Chen family's throne taken out of this generation? " Zhu Yan asked again, and Ji Fan also showed curiosity.

"If you sit in this throne for a long time, it will inevitably make people jealous and cause unnecessary losses to the Chen family," Chen Penghao explained.

This is the reality. Everything must be relaxed and smooth, and everything will be reversed. If the Chen family itself has always been the leader, it will cause resistance from the jade world. Therefore, the Stone King sometimes has to give up, but this does not mean that the Chen family has to give up the interests this time. How to maximize the family's interests without getting the Stone King is the Chen family's worries.

"Stop talking, eat the food first." Chen Penghao greeted him when he saw the waiter carrying the food.

"Come on, I'll give you a glass first." As he said that, Chen Penghao wanted to raise the wine glass, but Zhu Yan held it down. Chen Penghao was a little surprised, but was not angry, but just looked at Zhu Yan with a little confusion.

"Brother Penghao, the boss is in good health and should not drink alcohol," Zhu Yan explained hurriedly.

"Oh, so that's it. Ji Fan is sorry. I didn't know in advance. I'll punish myself for a drink." As he said that, he drank it all.

"Haha, how can I let Brother Penghao drink it alone? I'll have a cup too," Ji Fan said with a smile, and he also raised his head to drink it all.

"Boss, are you okay?" Zhu Yan, who was standing beside him, said anxiously. He knew how poor Ji Fan was and didn't even go to school often.

"Haha, my illness was cured a few days ago. I'll ask you to come out and have fun." Ji Fan was very moved when he saw Zhu Yan's expression. He explained at the same time.

"Damn it, it turns out that you are already ready, boss, I'll say, seeing that you are different from usual, I'm still wondering," Zhu Yan cursed, feeling that he was cheated.

"Haha, thank you for your concern, I'll drink another cup." Ji Fan poured another cup and drank it all in one go.

"Don't come that empty person, I want more portions of dragon meat after waiting for it." Zhu Yan stared at the plate of yellow Cancan meat and said.

"Okay, Ji Fan and I will leave more for you later." Chen Penghao also smiled, and also greeted the two of them.

"Come on, try this dragon meat"

Ji Fan also picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, his eyes lit up immediately.

"Scented, tender, smooth" was Ji Fan's first feeling.

"What kind of meat is this?" Ji Fan asked. Ji Fan naturally didn't believe it was dragon meat.

"This is dragon meat" Chen Penghao's answer made Ji Fan feel incredible.

"Of course it's not that kind of dragon, but a unique earth dragon in southern Yunnan. It's a cave reptile." Chen Penghao saw Ji Fan showing confusion, so he explained.

This earth dragon is actually a kind of lizard. It is a slightly larger size. In ancient times, it was a top-notch food that the emperor only enjoys. However, with the development of capture technology, the number of earth dragons has dropped drastically, and only in the deep mountains. Some people have proposed to list earth dragons as national-level protected animals and not to be hunted and killed, but the government order has not been issued so far.

So it is not illegal to eat dragon meat, but it will be hard to say in the future.

After a while, a plate of earth dragon meat was dealt with by three big men, and Zhu Yan blinked his mouth with unfulfilled satisfaction.

After a long time, the cup and plate were in a mess.

"Brother Penghao, are there any raw stones to observe now? I want to see them so that they will not be wasted tomorrow," said Ji Fan.

"There are always raw stones," Chen Penghao said with confidence.

"Let's go, I'll take you there now, but you have to be mentally prepared. This thing is difficult to figure out," Chen Penghao reminded.

"Yeah, I know," Ji Fan replied.

So the three of them drove towards the Chen family...
