1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Seeing that Minister Chen had misunderstood him, Lu Chen felt anxious. He couldn't let Minister Chen have a dislike for him because of such a thing.

He was thinking about how to give Minister Chen a reasonable explanation to clear up the misunderstanding. After a moment, he said to Minister Chen:

"Minister Chen, I wonder if this Miss Xianyu is from Yanjing."

Minister Chen was a little surprised why Lu Chen asked this question. He just met this Miss Xianyu. How could he know where others knew her? So he looked at Xianyu.

Xianyu smiled and said, "I am indeed from Yanjing. I don't know how you knew that, sir."

Lu Chen said: "Miss Xianyu, do you have an older sister or a younger sister?"

Xianyu frowned and said, "I don't have a sister or a younger sister."

Lu Chen looked very puzzled. He said, "I have a friend in Yanjing named Jin Bihui, who looks very similar to you, Miss Xianyu. I thought you were sisters."

Xianyu was shocked when she heard this. She racked her brains to recall where she had seen this Lu Chen. She could never imagine that Lu Chen had seen her in a history book.

After thinking for a while, she was sure that she had never seen this Lu Chen. But since this person knew this name, he might have known her identity as a spy. In order to protect her own safety, she decided to shut Lu Chen up.

Although Xianyu was a little flustered in her heart, she still kept smiling. She pretended to be curious and said to Lu Chen:

"I see. I thought you wanted to chat me up. There's actually someone who looks a lot like me. When are you free, invite your friend out so I can meet her."

Hearing this, Minister Chen looked at Lu Chen with some displeasure. He thought, I am still here. You two started to make an appointment.

After hearing what Xianyu said, Lu Chen almost blurted out the word "fuck you". You spy chief are so bad. I wish I could stay away from you now. I don't want to see you again. Lu Chen quickly said:

"I'm afraid this will disappoint Miss Xianyu. I don't know where my friend is now."

"It's okay, sir. Let's exchange contact information. When you see your friend again, you can contact me."

As he spoke, Xianyu wrote down the contact information on a piece of paper and handed it to Lu Chen.

Minister Chen's face became even uglier. You know, he didn't even have Miss Xianyu's contact information yet, but this guy got the contact information just after meeting Miss Xianyu. He was a little envious and jealous.

Lu Chen's mind was full of thoughts. He saw Minister Chen's face. His mind turned and he immediately had an idea. He took the note with the contact information and put it in the box he brought. Then he took out the box and pushed it to Minister Chen, then said with a smile:

"Minister Chen, this meeting was rather rushed, so I only prepared some local specialties. Please accept them."

Although Minister Chen was very unhappy with Lu Chen, he would not refuse the money that was placed in front of him. He nodded, then pulled the box in front of him, ready to check in to see how much money Lu Chen had given him.

Lu Chen quickly interrupted Minister Chen's action of opening the box. He smiled and said, "Minister Chen, my specialty is a bit rustic, please don't open it and make me look bad in front of everyone."

Minister Chen was stunned for a moment, then frowned. He thought that almost everyone here was his own people, so what gift did Lu Chen give that he didn't let him open it? Could it be that the money he gave was a bit too much and he was afraid of showing off his wealth? Minister Chen thought that this might be what Lu Chen meant.

Thinking of this, Minister Chen looked at Lu Chen with a much kinder look. He nodded and prepared to put the box away.

But Xianyu obviously didn't want to let Lu Chen fool her. She smiled and said:

"Brother Chen, this person looks very extraordinary, and the things he gave must be extraordinary. Just let everyone open their eyes."

When Minister Chen heard Xianyu say this, he also thought of Lu Chen as an overseas Chinese who had returned from the United States. This specialty might not be money, but something valuable made in the United States. Thinking of this, he became curious about what Lu Chen had sent, and the idea of ​​opening the box came to his mind again.

Lu Chen cursed inwardly, this damn woman, always looking for trouble for him, the note with the contact information was still inside. If this woman saw it, she would definitely make trouble again.

Lu Chen thought about it and decided to divert Minister Chen's attention from the box. He thought about it and said:

"Minister Chen, actually the contents of this box are American specialties. Minister Chen should have heard of San Francisco."

San Francisco! Isn't it San Francisco in the United States? Everyone knows this. Why did Lu Chen ask this? Minister Chen nodded and looked at Lu Chen with some doubts.

"Mr. Lu, you should be talking about San Francisco. What does this have to do with the local specialties in the box?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Then Minister Chen should know how San Francisco got its name."

Minister Chen nodded and said, "Of course I know this. San Francisco was just a small village before. The discovery of gold mines triggered a gold rush. Many people who were looking for gold gathered in this small village. Later, as more people came, it developed into a city. Because this city developed because of the gold mine, people called it Gold Mountain City. Later, in order to distinguish it from New Gold Mountain in Australia, it was named San Francisco."

Lu Chen nodded and said, "The things in my box are the specialties produced in San Francisco."

Specialties from San Francisco? Although Minister Chen knew San Francisco, he had never been there, and he had no idea what specialties there were. He could only guess what the specialties were based on the names.

He thought that the naming skills of foreigners were very low. Especially for a country like the United States, which was founded very recently, people would just give people's names to express simple and straightforward meanings. For example, Washington, Columbus, and Amelia all represent the memory of someone.

Then San Francisco must be a place where gold is produced, and the specialty here must be gold. When Minister Chen thought about it, he instantly understood what Lu Chen had sent.

He couldn't help but lift the box with his hands. He felt the weight of the box. It was quite heavy, about four or five kilograms. Four or five kilograms of gold, this made Minister Chen smile. He said:

"Mr. Lu, you are thoughtful. I am very satisfied with your specialty."

After saying that, he asked his men to put the box away.

Seeing the box being taken away, Lu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
