Chapter 1005 Muttering
It was also because of the a.s.sets acc.u.mulated by his predecessors that Zhao Shu could be considered a famous person in Jiang City.
At this moment, Zhao Shu was leisurely sipping tea in the living room.
However, when a phone rang, he could not help but frown.
He didn"t like being disturbed.
Hence, he picked up his cell phone and took a look. He wanted to see who was so blind to dare to disturb him!
When he saw that the caller was Director Zheng, his expression changed slightly.
"Why is it this guy again?!"
Zhao Shu frowned, looking extremely impatient.
In the past, this guy had been troubling him.
He said that he was going to film here!
Originally, he had seen Director Zheng"s scenes and admired them.
Therefore, he wanted to do him a favor and let him film here.
However, when he heard that more than a hundred people were coming, he immediately frowned and was a little unwilling.
That was because he did not like crowds, especially when so many people came!
If they really filmed here, this place would probably become a dump.
However, Director Zheng still had some influence after all. He also didn"t want to make things too awkward with Director Zheng.
Hence, he picked up the call.
"h.e.l.lo, Director Zheng. What"s the matter?"
Zhao Shu asked pretentiously. Actually, he knew very well what Director Zheng wanted to do with him.
After all, Director Zheng had looked for him several times because he wanted to rent the Riverview Manor.
However, he did not agree at all.
On the other side of the line, Director Zheng immediately smiled and said, "CEO Zhao, are you still in the villa? I just obtained a bag of good tea leaves and wanted to taste them with you."
Hearing this, Zhao Shu paused slightly.
As soon as he heard about the tea leaves, he hesitated and even felt an itch in his heart.
He didn"t have many hobbies, but he had a special liking for tea.
After all, he was a little old and at the age where he liked to drink tea.
"What… good tea?"
Zhao Shu asked.
When Director Zheng heard the other party"s words, he immediately became a little excited.
He had already asked around about what CEO Zhao liked.
In the end, he learned that he liked to drink tea!
Without another word, he asked someone from another city to buy a top-grade tea leaf from the auction house.
"This is the Wuyi Mountain Da Hong Pao that I just bought from the Kaide Auction. It"s very fresh, and it was picked from the king tree!"
Director Zheng spoke seductively.
"What?!"
After hearing this, Zhao Shu could not sit still anymore and stood up.
He stared out the window with an unbelievable gaze, his expression unusually nervous.
"You"re saying that it was plucked from the only tea tree at the top of Wuyi Mountain?"
Director Zheng immediately nodded and smiled. "That"s right. I"ll go look for you now!"
"Wait a minute!"
Zhao Shu suddenly stopped him and could not help but look to the side.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. "Speaking of which, the tea I"m drinking was also from a king tree. Now, I"m almost done drinking it, but there"s no need to continue drinking this kind of tea."
"It"s just something worth tens of thousands of yuan. Forget it, I won"t drink it."
Zhao Shu rejected him decisively because he was still drinking this kind of tea.
It was indeed sweet and delicious.
However…
Perhaps the next tea would be good too?
When he heard Zhao Shu"s words, Director Zheng was instantly disappointed.
He had spent a lot of effort to obtain these tea leaves!
Did he say that he didn"t want to drink anymore?
"Then… can you reconsider what you said before?"
"After all, it"s just filming a movie in your house. It won"t take much time!"
"I promise that we"ll definitely clean this villa well afterwards!"
"As for the personnel problem that you were worried about previously, I"ve already thought of a decision. As long as there are fewer people, it"s fine. Don"t worry, I definitely won"t disturb you!"
Helpless, Director Zheng could only hurriedly state his request, hoping that the other party would agree.
After all, this was an opportunity that he had spent a lot of effort to obtain!
Even though he had no intention of taking the tea leaves.
At this moment, CEO Zhao was silent for a while. In Director Zheng"s eyes, he seemed to have some considerations.
However, on Zhao Shu"s side, he indeed looked helpless.
He was just thinking about how he should reject Director Zheng!
This was because there was no room for consideration!
He sighed slightly and said, "Elder Zheng, let"s forget about this matter. Go somewhere else and take a look."
Hearing this, Director Zheng was speechless and sighed.
He said kindly, "Actually, it"s not as noisy as you think. Moreover, we won"t disturb your normal rest."
Zhao Shu did not want to listen anymore and immediately refused. "No, there are indeed a lot of people. Can you do that with less than ten people coming in?"
Director Zheng said with a bitter expression, "This… Although there are more than ten, it won"t be much."
"No! No!"
Zhao Shu still refused and said, "No means no. No matter what, I can"t. I still have something on. Let"s leave it at that!"
With that, he hung up without hesitation.
This made Director Zheng"s face turn green.
He stammered as he stared at his cell phone, unable to speak for a long time.
"Ah!"
He shook his head helplessly. He even felt a sense of desolation.
He spent a lot of money, but it didn"t work.
This was too tragic.
He could only hang up and say nothing else.
Meanwhile.
Zhao Shu, who had just hung up the phone, heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
"You"re still too inexperienced to play with me! Hmph!"
Zhao Shu smiled proudly. Then, he sat down in satisfaction and continued drinking tea.
Rejecting Director Zheng was something worth celebrating.
Hence, he took out some tea leaves from a box and placed them in the teapot, preparing to make tea.
Still.
At this moment.
His phone suddenly rang again.
Beep, beep, beep…
There was some noise in the huge living room.
This instantly angered Zhao Shu.
He thought that it was Director Zheng again, so his expression was very ugly.
He had already rejected Director Zheng righteously just now, but now he was calling again?
Wasn"t this a little shameless?!
With this thought in mind, Zhao Shu took the cell phone and glanced at it.
When he saw that it was an unknown number, his expression changed slightly.
This number…
He frowned and muttered in his heart.
This was because this number was a number with consecutive digits. It was also a number that only big bosses would use.
