Chapter 214 Boss Morey
The game lasted for more than an hour before it ended, and the Yankees narrowly defeated the Dodgers 7 to 6. After the game, Duncan led Lu Chen and others to the bar next to the stadium.
I don't know if it's because the Yankees won the game today, or because it's Christmas and no one is working, but there are a lot of people in the bar today. Everyone is here to drink, dance, chat with friends, and of course pick up girls.
Duncan took Lu Chen and the others to a relatively quiet seat in the bar and ordered a large glass of beer for them.
Duncan said to Lu Chen excitedly, "The Yankees played really well today and even hit two home runs."
Lu Chen could only say "hmm" awkwardly. He had no idea what Duncan was talking about. Evelyn noticed Lu Chen's embarrassment in time and quickly continued Duncan's words:
"It was really good, especially Babe's home run, which directly led to the Yankees scoring four points. The Yankees directly won that round of the game."
Lu Chen looked at Evelin with gratitude, thinking that it was a good thing he brought Evelin with him, otherwise he, the fake fan, would definitely be in trouble.
At this time, a big-bellied, bearded uncle came over to Lu Chen and the others. As soon as he arrived, he greeted Duncan:
"Hi! Duncan, I haven't seen you for a long time. How come you have time to come here today?"
When Duncan heard someone greet him, he quickly looked up at the uncle. After seeing who it was, Duncan immediately said happily:
"It's Uncle Morey. Today is the Yankees vs. Dodgers game, so I have to come and cheer for the Yankees. Uncle Morey, you Yankees did a great job today. It's worth my trip."
After listening to Duncan's words, Lu Chen began to look at this Morey. This uncle is also a member of the Yankees. He is so old, and he can still play baseball? Lu Chen looked at Evelin with some curiosity and asked in a low voice:
"Evelyn, is this Morey also a member of the Yankees? He is so old, can he still play baseball?"
Evelin wanted to laugh when she heard Lu Chen's ignorant question. In order to avoid embarrassing Lu Chen, Evelin quickly said:
"He's not a baseball player, he's the owner of the Yankees. The Yankees were originally a second-rate team. After he bought the Yankees, he spent a lot of money and brought in a lot of capable players, which made the Yankees one of the five strongest teams in the United States. That's why Yankees fans call him Uncle Morey."
Lu Chen was surprised. He didn't expect that this pot-bellied uncle was actually the owner of the Yankees. Lu Chen was wondering, with this uncle's body shape, if he was asked to run the bases, wouldn't that be like delivering food to the defensive players? After hearing Evelin's introduction, he felt that this uncle was very powerful. He actually turned a second-rate team into a top team. It seems that his strength should not be underestimated.
Seeing Lu Chen's somewhat surprised expression, Evelin smiled and continued:
"Lu Chen, aren't you going to meet the mayoral candidate James today? I heard that James is also a Yankees fan. If you can make friends with Morey, maybe he can give you some help."
James is a Yankees fan. Lu Chen looked at Evelyn in surprise. He was a little confused as to where Evelyn got this information from. Lu Chen asked in confusion:
"How did you know James was a Yankees fan?"
Evelin said with a smug look on her face, “You don’t even care which family I’m from. Although our family’s main industries are in Germany, we haven’t given up on running our business in the United States. I also have a lot of friends in New York. These news were all told to me by my friends.”
Lu Chen continued to ask: "What other news do you know? Do you know Mitchell?"
Evelyn smiled and said, "Mitchell? Are you talking about Mitchell Washington?"
Lu Chen nodded quickly.
Evelyn said, "Yes, he is the youngest son of the patriarch of the Washington family. He is also the favorite son of the patriarch, Waltz Washington."
Lu Chen continued to ask: "Then do you know which steel company he owns shares in?"
Evelin shook her head and said, "I don't know about that. I only know that he now controls an investment bank. As for which companies he has invested in, I don't know. By the way, Lu Chen, why are you asking him?"
Lu Chen said, "What else can I do? He's got his eyes on my things and is always causing me trouble. I want to learn more about him so I can guard against him."
Evelin immediately became angry when she heard Lu Chen's words. She said:
"This Mitchell actually dared to cause trouble for my man. Lu Chen, don't worry, I will teach him a lesson."
When Lu Chen heard Evelin's words, he immediately felt that it was great to have an awesome wife. When he was bullied, his wife would immediately help him vent his anger. This soft rice is really delicious.
But Lu Chen thought about it and said:
"Forget it. He can't do anything to me right now. When I really can't beat him, you can help me teach him a lesson."
Evelin pouted and said, “Okay,”
At this time, Duncan had finished talking to Morey, and then Duncan arranged Morey to sit at his table. He pointed at Lu Chen and others and introduced them to Morey:
"Uncle Morey, these guys are my friends. They're also Yankees fans."
(After hearing what Duncan said, Lu Chen thought to himself that I was a fake fan, I was just here for fun. Before last night, I didn’t even know what the Yankees did.)
Duncan pointed at Lu Chen and said, "Uncle Morey, this is my good friend. He is very famous in New York. You may not know him, but you must have heard of his name. He is the boss of Lu's company, Lu Chen."
Morey looked at Lu Chen excitedly and said:
"Mr. Lu, I've heard of your name for a long time. I didn't expect to have the honor of meeting you in person today. I really like the stockings produced by your company."
Lu Chen was a little speechless. Why would a stranger want to mention his stockings when he heard his name? Can't you mention something else, such as "God of Stocks"? This is definitely better than mentioning stockings. Lu Chen also smiled and said:
"It is also my honor to meet you, Mr. Morey."
Duncan pointed at Evelyn and continued to introduce: "This is Ms. Evelyn, Mr. Lu Chen's girlfriend."
Morey nodded to Evelyn with a kind look on his face. Seeing Morey like this, Lu Chen thought to himself, you old man are too perfunctory to Evelyn, obviously you don't know Evelyn's identity. If you knew that Evelyn was the little princess of the Rothschild family in the future, you will regret it.
Evelin also nodded with a smile on her face in response.
