“Mr. Su, Mr. Jiang is here to pick up the car,” a sales representative hurriedly approached.

“Got it,” Su Wenbin nodded.

“Everyone, you can rest in the lounge for a while. I’ll go and greet Mr. Jiang,” Su Wenbin said and left.

“Who’s this Mr. Jiang?” Xu Yang asked curiously.

“Jiang Yuhang, ever heard of him?” Lin Junyi replied.

“Jiang Yuhang? The guy is known as the most influential rich heir in Jaster City?” Xu Yang was surprised.

“That’s the one,” Lin Junyi nodded with a smile.

“Junyi, you and Jiang Yuhang are friends too? I haven’t heard you mention him before,” Zhao Yuxin inquired curiously.

“There’s nothing much to say about it. I got to know him through Su Wenbin,” Lin Junyi wasn’t one to brag.

“So, Su Wenbin and Jiang Yuhang are in the same league of rich heirs?” Xu Yang asked.

“Well, how do I put it… The Jiang family is quite influential in the business world, Jiang Yuhang’s father holds significant sway in the business world. The Su family’s business is not as big; they rely more on their connections in the government. Su Wenbin’s grandfather is a high-ranking official in the capital,” said Lin Junyi as he chose his words carefully.

“I’m quite far from them, just a small company. Su Wenbin and I are good friends mainly because our personalities click. Our friendship doesn’t revolve around business interests,” Lin Junyi added.

“That’s the kind of friend that counts. Making friends based on interests can easily lead to problems in friendship,” Zhao Yuxin commented.

While they were chatting, Su Wenbin was showing Jiang Yuhang the car. Jiang Yuhang was tall and dressed casually. He was buying a Bugatti Veyron. After a test drive, he was very satisfied.

Then, Su Wenbin brought Jiang Yuhang to the lounge and introduced him to Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin. They exchanged greetings, and acquaintances were made. At that moment, Xu Yang’s mind received a system notification.

BEEP!

Today, Jiang Yuhang is going to meet a friend in the afternoon, but he will be kidnapped by this two-faced friend and his accomplices. They will kill him after receiving the ransom tonight.

Xu Yang was startled. He thought, ‘Does that mean Jiang Yuhang will die tonight?’

Xu Yang glanced at Jiang Yuhang, pondering how to warn him. He couldn’t ignore this information now that he knew. After all, they had just met, and Jiang Yuhang was a friend of Lin Junyi’s.

Su Wenbin said, “Xu Yang just bought a Rolls-Royce Cullinan.”

Jiang Yuhang couldn’t help but give Xu Yang a deep look and said, “My dad bought a Cullinan too. I like driving it sometimes.”

Su Wenbin continued, “Yuhang, I’ve invited Junyi, Xu Yang, and Yuxin to have lunch together. Do you have time? You can join us.”

Jiang Yuhang agreed, “Sure, I don’t have anything else to do, might as well have a free meal.”

As time passed, the group left the car dealership and headed to a nearby private restaurant where they reserved a private room.

After a few rounds of drinks and a variety of dishes, they became more familiar with each other.

Jiang Yuhang asked, “What does your family do, Xu Yang?”

Xu Yang, who appeared to be quite young yet could afford a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, had piqued Jiang Yuhang’s curiosity.

Xu Yang replied candidly, “Yuhang, you might have misunderstood. My family runs a mini supermarket in a small town in North Loc Province.”

Jiang Yuhang was somewhat surprised and said, “I thought you were a rich heir. Turns out, you’re a self-made rich man.”

Su Wenbin was equally surprised. He said, “Xu Yang, I had the same impression as Yuhang. I didn’t expect you to be a self-made rich man.”

During their conversation, they learned that Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin had just graduated from university this year. Now that they knew Xu Yang’s family was from a small town in North Loc Province, they realized his family’s financial condition probably wasn’t outstanding.

In a small town, even a large supermarket wouldn’t generate much income. They couldn’t believe Xu Yang could afford a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, not to mention a villa. However, they couldn’t help but wonder if Zhao Yuxin came from a wealthy family. As they pondered, they glanced at Zhao Yuxin.

Lin Junyi noticed their expressions and explained, “Wenbin, Yuhang, Yuxin’s family isn’t wealthy. Her dad runs a small restaurant, and they manage to save around two to three hundred thousand yuan per year at best. Even that’s considered pretty good. They can’t afford a Rolls-Royce, that’s for sure. Xu Yang’s ability to buy a Rolls-Royce and even a villa, that’s all down to his own skills. Just so you know, he bought a villa in Century Gardens last week, and I attended his housewarming party.”

Hearing that Xu Yang had also bought a villa in Century Gardens, Su Wenbin and Jiang Yuhang were shocked once again. They knew that Century Gardens villas were worth at least 30 million yuan.

Buying both a car and a villa would add up to at least 40 million yuan. Jiang Yuhang couldn’t help but ask, “Xu Yang, what do you do for a living?”

Jiang Yuhang was genuinely curious because Xu Yang had just graduated from university, and he couldn’t fathom how he had earned so much money.

Not only Jiang Yuhang was curious, but even Su Wenbin thought the same. They glanced at Xu Yang wondering what he did for a living.

In fact, both Jiang Yuhang and Su Wenbin had come from good families. They were able to have their current lives largely because of their families. Even after they graduated from university, relying on their own skills, they couldn’t have earned that much money.

“I just got lucky, made some profits from investing in futures, and, oh, I also found a treasure while strolling through Antique Street,” Xu Yang replied without hiding anything but without specifying the exact amount.

Even without disclosing the figure, the fact that Xu Yang could afford a Rolls-Royce Cullinan and a villa made it clear he had earned a considerable sum.

“You’re being too modest, Xu Yang. In this world, whether it’s making money through futures or finding treasures in an Antique Street, luck alone can’t explain it. You need absolute skills,” Su Wenbin stated.

“Indeed, if you said you made money from winning the lottery or sports betting, I’d believe it was luck. But earning money through futures and finding treasures in an Antique Street can’t be attributed to luck,” Jiang Yuhang agreed.

Su Wenbin and Jiang Yuhang didn’t believe Xu Yang’s wealth came solely from luck; they saw it as a sign of his substantial capabilities.

After all, futures trading wasn’t something just anyone could succeed in. Those who could make money from the futures market were far from ordinary people. As for finding treasures in antique markets, it required an eye for detail and the ability to discern genuine items from fakes. If one couldn’t tell the difference, they wouldn’t be able to find treasures.
