La forgeronne d'un autre monde

Chapitre 37

"Holy crap... what is this? Are emojis this realistic these days? Someone in our group is actually sending red envelopes?!"

"Wow! Two hundred bucks! Boss, did you strike it rich?"

"Boss, I want to have your babies!"

"Boss, don't stop!"

In an instant, all four roommates went from being lurking to frantically grabbing red envelopes. It has to be said that their speed in grabbing red envelopes was top-notch. Ma Yunteng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "They really are a group of old men who have been single for more than 20 years!"

Ignoring their surprise, he directly posted Northumbria III's location.

He quickly typed out a message and sent it: Hurry up, the top three will each receive a Bugatti Veyron!

The WeChat group exploded the next moment!

Bugatti Veyron? That's a supercar that countless men dream of owning!

Shocking and bewildering news flooded the WeChat group. Finally, after Zhao Peng's patient explanation, the group gradually calmed down. The next moment, they abandoned what they were doing and flocked to Norsen III from all over Jiangnan City without hesitation.

Just kidding, with the allure of a Bugatti Veyron, who would be the fourth idiot to arrive?!

In less than forty minutes, the four roommates miraculously arrived at Northumberland III.

After exchanging pleasantries, Ma Yunteng drove his Mercedes-Benz S600 directly to a five-star hotel in the eastern district of Jiangnan City.

The group didn't press the matter too much about the Bugatti Veyron, because Ma Yunteng had already promised to give each of them one and had sent people out to purchase one.

At this moment, the five people have arrived at the best five-star hotel in Jiangnan City—the Haitian Hotel.

The Haitian Hotel is renowned throughout Jiangnan City because it is open only to members and offers the most prestigious and exclusive services.

So when Ma Yunteng's S600 drove into the parking lot, he was almost kicked out by the security guard. People who drive Mercedes-Benz cars are too embarrassed to come to this place. In the end, Ma Yunteng gave the security guard a 10,000 yuan tip before he was allowed to enter the Haitian Hotel.

"I'm sorry, sir, our hotel operates on an invitation-only basis and is not open to ordinary customers."

The five of them had already entered the main entrance of the Haitian Hotel, but they were stopped by the receptionist as soon as they entered. The pretty receptionist immediately recognized them as ordinary people and was about to call security to have them kicked out. The roommates all looked embarrassed.

"Boss, I heard this hotel is very expensive, why don't we go somewhere else?" the third brother quickly said, trying to smooth things over.

"Why bother changing? We're already here, so let's just go with this place. It's not expensive anyway!"

Ma Yunteng didn't even glance at the receptionist. Instead, he confidently walked straight to the center of the lobby. Opposite him walked a manager in a suit with the words "Lobby Manager" written in gold on his name tag.

"Hello sir, please show your membership card! If you are not a member of our store, we cannot serve you." The lobby manager's voice was very polite, and although he did not judge people by their appearance, his face was full of arrogance.

Membership card?

This was Ma Yunteng's first time at the Haitian Hotel. He didn't know there was any membership card, but he refused to believe that money couldn't be spent!

To put it bluntly, it's all about money. These people don't respect them at all! It's just money, right?

A cold smile flashed across Ma Yunteng's lips as he declared with an air of arrogance, "I don't have a membership card, but I have money. I don't need any other venues; I just want to book the entire banquet hall on the top floor! Name your price!"

Ma Yunteng had long heard that the highest-end dining experience at the Haitian Hotel was in the rooftop banquet hall, where guests could enjoy spectacular performances while dining, including some second- or third-tier celebrities!

"Sir, this puts me in a difficult position. The entry price for the LAFEIR banquet hall on the top floor is 100,000 per person. If you want to book the entire hall, the price will be very high..." The lobby manager was not exaggerating. To book the entire banquet hall on the top floor, you would need at least 5 million, and that's just for one day.

"High? How high can it be?" Ma Yunteng looked at him disdainfully. In his eyes, there was no such thing as a high price now!

"Five million a day!" The voice of the Grand Master was very powerful and resounding.

Upon hearing this, the roommates all lowered their heads in embarrassment. Five million a day! What kind of banquet hall would that be? They had heard that five-star hotels were expensive, but they never expected it to be this outrageously expensive!

"Hehe, I thought it would be a much higher price? It's only five million." Ma Yunteng didn't waste any more time with him and directly pulled out the black gold card from his pocket: "Swipe ten million! The remaining five million is for clearing the place. My friend and I don't like being disturbed by others. How about that, not too much trouble for you, right?!"

The lobby manager was instantly stunned. Especially when he saw the black gold card in the man's hand, he was completely dumbfounded. He secretly rejoiced that he hadn't said anything too offensive, otherwise, he would have really met a tough guy!

"Yes, yes! This way please!" The lobby manager immediately smiled broadly and made a standard invitation gesture to the group, respectfully leading them to the LAFEIR banquet hall on the 100th floor via elevator.

The group was stunned by the sight before them as soon as they entered the banquet hall.

As expected of the most famous five-star hotel in Jiangnan City, the magnificent decorations were almost blinding. The entire venue was decorated like a concert hall. Because Ma Yunteng didn't like it too noisy, the music in the venue had been changed to elegant piano music.

"Well then, everyone's been so kind to come see me today, so let's not order any food. Let's just bring out every kind of dish!" Ma Yunteng said with a slight smile to his roommates. "Let's eat and drink to our hearts' content today! Also, let's not drink any beer, too much of that stuff makes us bloated and affects our enjoyment of the food! I've ordered ten cases of 1982 Lafite, so let's chat and drink slowly!"

As soon as the voice fell, several roommates nearly fainted from fright.

This is the first time I've ever heard of someone drinking Lafite by stepping on a case! Someone who's never even drunk Lafite before is going to try it today!

"Haha! A bottle of 1982 Lafite costs over 100,000 yuan on the market, and I actually got to drink Lafite today! Come on, boss, toast to you!" Before the dishes were even served, Zhao Peng took the lead in toasting Ma Yunteng, and several roommates also raised their glasses at the same time.

Ma Yunteng didn't stand on ceremony and downed his drink in one gulp. He then waved his hand and said, "Everyone, don't be shy. I've called you all here today to discuss opening an internet cafe! Lao San should have already told you all about it, so I won't go into details. I'll provide the money, and you all will contribute your efforts! Let's fulfill the dream we had when we first graduated! Come on, let's toast to our dreams!"

"Long live the dream!" the group shouted in unison. They were now full of confidence in Ma Yunteng because they knew he was a man of integrity and faith, and they were also impressed by his boldness!

Without money, how could one buy Northumbria III?!

Without money, how could someone recklessly invest 20 billion in a single J-share, causing the stock price to increase a hundredfold?!

No money, yet dares to book the whole place and drink Lafite by the case?!

Although they didn't know why Ma Yunteng had become so rich, they couldn't care less about that now. They just wanted to work hard under Ma Yunteng and set up the internet cafe according to his wishes, because they all knew that Ma Yunteng was a loyal and sentimental person!

After several rounds of drinks, everyone was somewhat tipsy.

"So, although building this internet cafe is everyone's shared dream, it was initiated by me. I'll provide the money, but everyone should also contribute their time and effort! So, I'll start by paying everyone their salaries!"

Ma Yunteng looked at the group and said calmly, "The basic annual salary is 50 million each! Send me your bank account number, and we'll transfer the money now. Even between brothers, accounts should be settled clearly!"
