Chapter 1570: : They are the Zhang brothers and sisters (4 more)
The new semester has begun.
Cornell University is back in the buzz.
Xia Xiaolan also met some old friends, Daniel, a hotel management professional. After seeing Xia Xiaolan, she especially thanked her:
"You let me win the bet with others. I think I should invite you to dinner. Please don't look at me like that. Your Chinese boyfriend is Bruce Lee, I really dont dare to think otherwise."
Daniel raised his hands and surrendered.
Xia Xiaolan chuckled, "So it's a meal of pure friendship?"
"I swear, a very sincere friendship! You went to the firm for an internship for two months, don't you have a wonderful story to share with your friends?"
That's really telling.
The summer vacations of Daniel and Nancy were basically spent in hotel internships.
Nancy made Xia Xiaolan laugh when she talked about the strange things that happened in the hotel.
"Xia, tell me about your internship!"
Xia Xiaolan started with the Wilson Hotel project. He heard that the three major firms bid for the same project. After GMP succeeded in winning the bid, Nancy clapped his hands: "This is you! So did you go to Washington for a business trip?"
Xia Xiaolan nodded.
She had a more fulfilling two months than Nancy and Daniel had imagined.
I heard that Xia Xiaolan also accepted a commission for the renovation of the theater, and Nancy wanted to scream.
Daniel asked the name of the theater, "This theater is not small in scale and has a long history. I seem to have been there once or twice."
Moreover, this is also an asset in the Wilson family's name, right?
Daniel thinks that Xia Xiaolan and the Wilson family are too close. Xia Xiaolan also thinks that Daniel knows a lot. Xia Xiaolan's heart moved: "Danny, have you heard of a pair of brothers and sisters? Both are of Chinese origin. The younger sister is Tina. This year is 18 years old. Years old, he went to school in Columbia, and his brother was called Farn. He seemed to have just found a job on Wall Street."
Daniel also seems to come from a relatively wealthy family.
There are several small circles of wealthy people in New York. These circles are relatively independent and sometimes overlap.
Xia Xiaolan felt that Daniel might know something.
Xia Xiaolan's strange sense of familiarity is uncomfortable if she doesn't figure it out.
But let Xia Xiaolan disappointed, Daniel shook his head after listening, "I have never seen two people like this in my social circle. Where did you meet them?"
"In Mrs. Wilson's house, and Tina also lives in the Upper East Side."
Daniel couldnt bear to look at Xia Xiaolans disappointed expression, and added: Maybe I can ask you some information. Im not a New Yorker, and suddenly moved to the Upper East Side. They must have some background. They need to be accepted by the local social circle. Mrs. Wilson should have played such a leading role."
The rich suddenly move, and they will never be obscured. When they arrive in a new place, they must integrate into a new social circle.
In particular, some apartments in the Upper East Side require the consent of the apartment owners to move in. Each apartment has its own rules. Some refuse lawyers to move in, while others refuse to enter the entertainment industry. If an apartment sells for US$1 million, it cannot be bought for US$1 million. At least 3- An asset audit certificate that is 5 times greater than the value of the apartment.
"You mean, Tina lives there, and it must have been reviewed by assets... This is reviewing the background of the new owners, right?"
Daniel nodded, "I think you should understand that the apartments in the Upper East Side don't want to be neighbors with inconsistent people, such as gangsters and drug lords."
That gangster drug lord can't buy a house in the Upper East Side?
No, it can be bought for sure.
The money they use to buy a house must be cleanly laundered, at least it seems that they must have a decent and persuasive identity!
Although the money in the pockets of the financial and bankers may not be much cleaner than the drug lords, this is the rule formulated by the wealthy people who first entered the Upper East Side.
"I get it."
Daniel smiled, "I'll find out for you and tell you the news in a few days."
Nancy yelled, her expression exaggerated, clamoring to draw a line between two rich men.
Xia Xiaolan was full of black lines, "You made a mistake, my clients are the rich people in the Upper East Side."
What do you do to find out about the client's background?
Are you doing this for someone to make a decoration plan now?
Daniel did not expose Xia Xiaolan. Everyone has their own secrets. This is just a matter of effort for him.
Two days later, Daniel really gave Xia Xiaolan some information.
"The brothers and sisters of Tina and Farn are from California. There are also many Chinese immigrants in Los Angeles. I heard that the family is engaged in import and export trade. Tina and Farn are their American names and their Chinese surnames are Cheung."
Cheung.
It is the "Zhang" surname in Hong Kong-style pinyin.
This Xia Xiaolan knew about it a long time ago, after all, she was looking at the contract signed by Tina.
The surname "Zhang" is quite ordinary.
Looking familiar, it is impossible to be relatives of Zhang Cui's family. Her family's relatives are not so promising that they immigrated to the United States early and struggled to become rich.
"So the people in the Upper East Side don't know enough about the brothers and sisters. Cheung should be the patrilineal surname. What about their mother?"
Daniel shook his head, "I don't know this. The apartment originally belonged to a Mr. Cheung and was given to Tina. It is a very common gift between family members. If you want to know more, you should probably ask Wilson. Madam, it seems that she is the one guiding Tinas activities in the New York social circle. She and Tinas family must be very familiar."
Xia Xiaolan also knew that she should ask Mrs. Wilson.
Mrs. Wilson still didn't know why she was so enthusiastic about her. Wasn't this question self-reliant?
Maybe she can ask Jim for help.
Jim recently followed Zhou Yi, and he is probably going crazy with boredom.
...
"Do you think there is a problem with those brothers and sisters?"
Jim called Xia Xiaolan to report on Zhou Yi's situation as usual. When Xia Xiaolan said that, he immediately put Zhou Yi's baby's life aside.
Since Jim started his career, he has also had a rare failure. Only when he was looking for Xu Zhongyi, he interrupted clues several times.
It is more challenging to investigate Xu Zhongyi than to look after Zhou Baby in secret.
"I don't know. I know that brothers and sisters Tina and Farn are very familiar. After thinking about it, I can't remember where I met these two brothers and sisters. Then suddenly I remembered that their brothers and sisters look similar to Cui Yiru. "
Xia Xiaolan subconsciously rejected this possibility, so she didn't think about Cui Yiru at first.
Because looking at Tina's appearance, only wealthy families can be spoiled. According to Jim's judgment, Xu Zhongyi's wife and children still don't know where they live in incognito and bear the humiliation, how can they correspond to the wealthy daughter!
An apartment in the Upper East Side of New York can be given to an 18-year-old daughter as a coming-of-age gift.
I didn't like the decoration and reinstalled it.
Daniel said that his family does import and export trade in Los Angeles.
How could such a person be related to Xu Zhongyi's wife and children?
What if it matters again!
Why didn't Tina tell me in advance that Faen's age was exactly the same as Xu Changle back then.
