Chapter 366 On the Golf Course
Chapter 366 On the Golf Course
Time flies, and soon it was November. At this time in New York, the temperature had dropped to around ten degrees. Lu Chen took out a winter coat that he had treasured for a year and put it on himself.
Today, he plans to visit Morgan, to build relationships with him, and to lay the groundwork for what he will do later.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, a gust of cold wind hit Lu Chen's face. Then it passed through the gaps between Lu Chen's clothes and penetrated into his body. This made Lu Chen shiver unconsciously.
Lu Chen pulled his clothes with his hands to make them fit him tightly. Only then did Lu Chen feel a little warm.
Seeing Lu Chen coming out of the villa, Locke quickly opened the car door.
"Boss, it's windy outside, get in the car quickly."
Lu Chen hurriedly walked forward a few steps and got into the car. After Locke sat in the driver's seat, Lu Chen said:
"We're going to Mr. Morgan's house today."
After Locke nodded to indicate that he had received it, he started the car and drove towards Morgan Manor.
Along the way, Lu Chen saw many people working and many people standing on the streets giving speeches. New York had finally gotten rid of the impact of the economic crisis and started a new round of economic recovery.
Lu Chen arrived at Morgan's manor very quickly. When the guard of the manor saw that it was Lu Chen's car, he quickly opened the gate and said to Lu Chen:
"Mr. Lu, welcome to Morgan Manor. Mr. Morgan is over at the golf course now. I'll take you there to see him."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Thank you for your help."
This was the first time Lu Chen came to the Morgan family's golf course. The grass on the golf course had been trimmed to 5 or 6 centimeters high. Looking at the green lawn, Lu Chen had the illusion that it was spring.
After following the guard for about ten meters, Lu Chen saw Morgan playing ball with several middle-aged men. Morgan raised the club high, then swung it hard, and a small white ball was hit out.
Morgan finished his shot and was about to move forward when he suddenly spotted Lu Chen walking towards him. He quickly asked the servants to accompany the guest first, and he walked towards Lu Chen.
"Lu Chen, you haven't come to my place for a long time."
As Morgan spoke, he walked up to Lu Chen, stretched out his hand, and hugged Lu Chen.
"Lu Chen, why didn't you tell me beforehand when you came here? I could have someone prepare a golf club for you as well."
Then Morgan said to the guard:
"Go get Mr. Lu a golf club."
"Yes, sir."
After hearing Morgan's instructions, the guard immediately turned around and walked towards the villa.
Lu Chen quickly stopped the guard. Golf, Lu Chen really doesn't know how to play this game. He doesn't even know the most basic rules. Lu Chen quickly waved his hand and said:
"Don't bother. I don't know how to play golf, so don't get me the clubs."
"No! Just learn it. I tell you, golf is very easy. All you have to do is hit the ball into the hole. It's not difficult. You can learn it in no time."
As Morgan spoke, he waved at the guard, signaling him to quickly get the clubs, and he pulled Lu Chen towards the golf course.
"Lu Chen, let me tell you, you are now a member of the upper class. How can you not know how to play golf? You know, almost everyone in the upper class can play golf. If you want to get along with them, you must learn this sport."
Being dragged by Morgan to play golf made Lu Chen very helpless. He really didn't want to learn. If he had this time, he might as well play basketball or go hunting. Which of these sports is not more fun than golf?
Lu Chen said with a wry smile: "Mr. Morgan, learning golf is really useless and not fun at all. I'm really not interested in it. I'd rather go hunting when I have time. That's much more interesting than playing golf."
Morgan said, "Playing golf is not just for fun, it's a social activity. After you hit the ball, the time you spend looking for it is the time you spend chatting with your friends. It's just like you Chinese people drinking and talking about things at the table. We play golf to talk about things."
Lu Chen curled his lips. He really didn't want to learn this. He wanted to split his time into smaller pieces. How could he have so much time to talk about things slowly? Lu Chen said:
"Mr. Morgan, I really don't have time to learn this. I have a lot of things to do."
Morgan waved his hand and said, "Don't be too busy here. I have much more things to do than you. I tell you, if you don't play ball with me today, don't expect me to talk to you."
There was no other way, Lu Chen could only bite the bullet and follow Morgan. He learned golf from Morgan.
Soon, Morgan and Lu Chen caught up with the people who were looking for the ball. When they saw Morgan and his men coming, they all asked Morgan cheerfully:
"Morgan, who is this friend next to you?"
Morgan pretended to be surprised and said, "You don't know him? He is the most famous young man in New York in recent years."
"Oh!"
Several people said "oh" and then looked at Lu Chen carefully. A fat middle-aged man wearing suspenders suddenly said:
"I know. He is the Lu Chen who produces stockings."
Lu Chen looked at the middle-aged man who was talking in silence. I have done so many things, why do you only remember the stockings? Like building roads, building warships, stock market legends, which one is not more awesome than making stockings.
After hearing what this person said, the others reacted instantly and looked at Lu Chen with curiosity.
"You are the Lu Chen that my wife often mentions, little brother, you are too mean. Ever since your stockings came out, my waist has never straightened up. I tell you, you have really hurt us badly."
Lu Chen looked at these people speechlessly. Can you blame me for this? If you guys couldn’t control yourself, how could you not stand up straight?
Although he looked down upon these people in his heart, Lu Chen still kept a smile on his face.
"You guys are not kind-hearted. I made these stockings to benefit our male compatriots. How can you say that I am giving you back?"
After hearing Lu Chen's words, they all smiled at each other, and then changed the topic tacitly. The middle-aged man in overalls said:
"Brother Lu Chen, I also heard that you have a talent for investment. I am also interested in investment. How about we find some time to have a good chat?"
Lu Chen said politely, "Okay, I've recently spotted a few promising projects. If you're interested, we can find a time to sit down and have a good chat."
