After Erwin sat down next to the old man, Lucas and Lina also sat down to go over to Erwin's side to sit together at the main table, being able to sit here was an absolute honor in the family, and make all the relatives and friends who see it feel envious.
Lina's mother, Mary, had also rushed back to Lucas' side at this moment, she had already seen the scene just now, and Erwin's impression seemed to have changed slightly in her view.
"Why are you back now? Mr. Damon came here to meet us, he gave me his business card, and told me to look for him if I needed help, he also gave Lina a super gold card from the High Build Group, you should have known that the card was very valuable, if you had been here just now, you would have gotten a meeting present as well."
Lucas could not help complaining about his wife, because Mr. Damon's gift was not something ordinary people could get, it would be a pity if missed. After a pause, he turned his gaze to Erwin and continued,
"But all of this is thanks to Erwin, he's the one who got us into a good relationship with Mr. Damon, and we who can sit at this main table are also thanks to Erwin."
"Why do you talk so much?" Mary was very impatient, but still apologized to Erwin in a low voice, "Erwin, Auntie's attitude might have been a bit heavy earlier, so don't put it to heart huh."
Although Mary's attitude towards Erwin was already a little more polite, but she still looked down on Erwin who was a poor boy from the countryside, but in any case, she looked down on Erwin, Erwin gets to know Mr. Damon and seems to have an unusual relationship with Mr. Damon, so he can accept Erwin a bit as his daughter's boyfriend.
It was just that Erwin was poor, so Mary still strongly objected to this.
“No problem Auntie, I've forgotten her.” Naturally, Erwin wouldn't have had to look for trouble with Mary.
“I told you that Erwin is bu-capable, just you who still don't like it.” Lina was very happy now, as the more Erwin was recognized by both of her parents, the greater the possibility of her being with Erwin.
"Yes, yes, your mouth has always been. After the party is over, come along mom goes shopping." Mary had long been interested in High build items, and with the gold card that could give her a 50% discount now, she naturally wanted to shop until she was satisfied.
“Iya My noble Mother.” Lina chuckled and replied.
The banquet for David's 80th birthday was about to begin, in total there were four tables that were almost all filled with people.
“Come, come, everyone can start eating.” David is very happy today, his 80th birthday can be celebrated with his descendants, this is his greatest joy.
The dishes and wine on the table were also very luxurious, after all, each of them here had great wealth, and was not short of money at all, so automatically the dish is very luxurious.
For a time, people started toast each other, and the atmosphere became very crowded. At the middle of the banquet, everyone took out their respective gifts that would be given to David.
“Daddy, this is the jade cabbage I prepared carefully for you, hope you like it!” Simon the eldest son was the first to bring out the gift he had prepared.
“Hmm, this jade cabbage looks good, it looks like you spent quite a lot of money on this.” David nodded in satisfaction at this gift.
“Dad, this is an antique stone carving I prepared for you, see if you like it?” Lucas, his second son, also brought his birthday present.
Next was the third child, Darwin and the fourth child Stella. Their gifts were also antiques, it seemed like they knew clearly the old man's hobby of obsessing over antiques, so they all gave him antiques.
“This year the four of you are quite meticulous, unlike the gifts of a few years ago, the prizes are mostly obscure.” David received this gift with satisfaction, while putting a smiling expression on his face.
The gifts of his grandchildren were of various types, however, his grandchildren were still very young, so there were all sorts of gifts that gave him headaches, he said, he is old so sometimes can not accept the gifts that young people like.
But he accepted everything with pleasure and a smile, because after all this was a gift from his grandchildren.
After waiting for a while, Vincent stood up from his seat and showed the painting he had in his hand confidently.
"Professor Aleda, do you like this painting?"
As he spoke, the painting in Vincent's hands was fully open for display, and showed a fine detail painting in front of everyone.
Looking at the painting, everyone could not help but be curious to look there, even David also got up from his seat excitedly, picking up the magnifying glass, and he was still there, and walk there to take a closer look.
Erwin also glanced at the painting in Vincent's hand, however, what surprised him was that the painting in Vincent's hand was exactly the same as the "Ali Sadikin In the Age of Independence" he was carrying now, which he was carrying, it even has the same signature and stamp.
"This child turned out to open a replica of "Ali Sadikin In the Age of Independence" this. Erwin said in his heart and secretly surprised, if not identified authenticity by Brian who is the best antiques appraiser in the City of Bandung, Erwin must have thought Hans gave him an antique replica painting.
But now, he was very calm.
"Wait, what's this painting "Ali Sadikin In the Age of Independence" that was bought by a foreigner five years ago?" David has been exploring the antique world for many years, so it is natural to know the painting "Ali Sadikin At the Time of Independence" It was eventually purchased by an overseas citizen for a price of nearly 60 billion.
“True, this painting is “Ali Sadikin At Independence” by Hendra Gunawan, while I was on a business trip abroad a few days ago, he said, I specifically asked someone to buy it from that stranger for 76 billion, just to give it to Professor Aleda as a birthday gift."
Vincent is very proud at the moment, this is the embodiment of wealth and power, as he spoke, Vincent glanced at Erwin with disdain, and to think that a poor loser like yourself wouldn't be able to afford a painting like this for any amount of time, don't think that just knowing Damon can show off here.
“What is this painting Hendra Gunawan?” Speaking of paintings by Hendra Gunawan, everyone immediately attracted and gathered to see the artist's painting, however, Hendra Gunawan was a very famous painter.
There are also some friends of David from the antique industry who are very curious about this painting, so also take a look.
When they saw "Ali Sadikin In the Age of Independence" Vincent began to raise his eyes and glanced at Erwin as he said, "Lady of Sadikin,
"By the way, what gift would Mr Erwin give to Professor Aleda?"
As soon as this comment came out, many of the people present turned their eyes to Erwin. Because Erwin is just a poor kid from the countryside, despite being friends with Damon, but still has no money.
For a while, they also became curious about the gift Erwin brought.
"I've prepared a gift for Professor Aleda, I'm afraid you'll be very surprised to see the gift." Erwin smiled slightly, and moved his hand to pull out a painting scroll.
When everyone saw that Erwin was also carrying paintings, they grew curious as to what kind of painting could be compared to "Ali Sadikin In the Age of Independence" The work of Hendra Gunawan brought by Vincent.
