Chapter 71 Birthday Gift
If he dares to buy a car under one million, then given Liu Dongsheng's personality, he must have more than one million yuan in his hands.
Of course she wanted to keep this money in her own hands.
She asked tentatively: "Dongsheng, where did you keep the money? Is it safe?"
Liu Dongsheng glanced at her and said, "Don't worry, it's very safe."
Huang Juan didn't give up and said, "I have a friend who works in a bank. I heard that if you deposit more than one million at a time, the interest rate is quite high. How about I ask her?"
"If the interest rate is high, we'll just deposit it with her."
Liu Dongsheng paused for a moment, holding the chopsticks. "This money has nothing to do with you. Don't worry about it. I will spend it on my family."
However, Huang Juan did remind him that if he just kept the money in his account, it would be considered a current account and the interest would be pitifully low. He should deposit at least one million yuan in a fixed deposit to see how much interest he would get in a year. He should go to the bank to ask tomorrow.
Huang Juan was furious.
What do you mean it doesn't matter? Legally speaking, after she married Liu Dongsheng, every penny Liu Dongsheng earned was the common property of the couple, and she owned half of it.
However, she did not dare to refute Liu Dongsheng. Instead, she smiled and picked up a piece of food for him. "My husband is really capable. From now on, we will follow you to enjoy the delicious food and drink the spicy drinks."
Liu Dongsheng nodded casually, but he was thinking in his mind what other channels he could use to make more money by using his identity as Lin Xi's guardian.
As for whether Lin Xi will fulfill the contract after she returns, he has consulted a lawyer. As Lin Xi's guardian, the contract he signed on her behalf is legally binding.
Lin Xi had to do it even if she didn't want to.
Liu Dongsheng suddenly asked Huang Juan, "By the way, do you know when Lin Xi's birthday is?"
Huang Juan was just trying to please Liu Dongsheng, but when she heard this question, she exploded, "How should I know? She's not my daughter!"
"Why, you remember to care about her now? It's too late! She doesn't even recognize you as her father."
Liu Dongsheng scolded, "If you don't know, then you don't know. What are you fussing about?"
"I asked about her birthday for a serious matter."
When I asked the lawyer today, he made it very clear that guardians can sign contracts on behalf of minors.
The key point is, he just remembered that Assistant Chen said that Lin Xi is about to turn eighteen.
They said it would be this month, but I don’t know which day it will be.
Once a person turns 18, he is an adult and the contract he signed is invalid.
If he wanted to make money, he had to do it before Lin Xi came of age.
Otherwise, based on Lin Xi's attitude towards him, he would definitely deny it.
But now, Lin Fenfang and Lin Yuan from opposite side are not at home.
I heard from the neighbors that she went abroad for medical treatment, and there was no one to ask about Lin Xi’s birthday.
While eating, Liu Dongsheng was thinking, early this month, I'll see if I can find a way to sign a few more contracts.
By the middle or end of the month, Lin Xi’s birthday might be here, which is a bit unsafe.
Liu Caifang lowered her head and ate her meal. She knew Lin Xi's birthday was today, wasn't it?
She remembered it very clearly. On August 3rd last year, when Lin Fenfang's health was not so bad, she went out early in the morning to buy chicken, beef and other things and brought them home. At the door, she met Aunt Wang, who said it was Lin Xi's birthday.
The reason why she remembered this day so clearly was that it was also the birthday of her deceased grandmother.
She thought at the time that it was strange that Lin Xi’s birthday was the same day as her grandmother’s.
At this moment, Liu Dongsheng didn't ask her, and she was too lazy to say anything.
Lin Xi on the island didn't know that her father had sold her at a low price.
After grinding the abalone shell for a long time, she was tired and just took a shower and went to bed.
Qi Mo was lying in the shack next to him, but he couldn't sleep. Tomorrow was Lin Xi's birthday, and he had to give her some kind of gift.
But there is nothing on the island, what should I do?
The next morning, they repeated the steps of fetching and boiling water.
After washing up, the two of them headed towards the jungle again to look for food for the day.
Lin Xi was still leading the way, and Qi Mo was walking behind.
Qi Mo seemed to be walking a little slower than usual today, and Lin Xi also slowed down a little, using her spiritual sense to search for anything that could fill her stomach.
Her hair was not tied up as usual, but casually draped over her shoulders.
She had been paying attention to it for a long time. When she was still in China, she specially found a rubber band that was more than one centimeter wide and had good elasticity. When she left the hotel, she used this rubber band to tie her hair. When she was searched, it did not attract the attention of the staff.
She had made a slingshot last night using rubber bands and a Y-shaped branch.
Her trouser pockets were filled with small stones she had picked up along the way.
But she had been walking for half an hour and there was no prey for her to attack.
The island is too small and there are too many contestants, so the survival resources on the island are becoming increasingly scarce.
The wild fruits that were everywhere a few days ago are now hard to find.
Bird nests with eggs are almost impossible to find.
As for some insects, Lin Xi still doesn't want to eat them unless it is absolutely necessary.
She suddenly noticed that there was a seabird perched on the branch in front of her.
Lin Xi held her breath, slowly took out the pebble, pulled the rubber band, aimed, and then let go.
The pebble flew out with a whoosh.
Hit the bird's head accurately.
For someone who has practiced shooting for more than 20 years and has mastered the art, this is nothing.
A white seabird fell from the branch, bringing down a few leaves on the ground. Lin Xi ran over and picked up the seabird.
She turned around and was about to share her joy with Qi Mo, but saw Qi Mo put one hand behind his back in a panic.
Lin Xi just smiled at him and did not use her spiritual sense to find out what Qi Mo was doing. She would not pry into her teammates' privacy.
Lin Xi wrapped the seabird in leaves and tied it with a leather rope. He continued walking forward with the seabird in his hand and soon walked out of the jungle.
There were quite a few people on the beach, all rushing for today's food.
Some caught fish in the shallow sea, while others looked for shellfish on the beach.
Just as Lin Xi was about to head towards the beach, Qi Mo's voice came from behind, "Lin Xi, wait a moment."
Lin Xi stopped and looked back.
Qi Mo's usually expressionless face was adorned with a rare hint of shyness. He suddenly stretched out the hand hidden behind his back and extended it to Lin Xi, "Happy birthday!"
"Congratulations on becoming an adult today."
Lin Xi stared at what Qi Mo held in his hand in a daze. It was a bouquet of wild flowers.
The wild flowers are very small and few, no more than ten, some white and some blue.
The weeds have been trimmed to the same length, surrounding the wild flowers, making them look very neat and delicate.
The shape of the whole bouquet is a bit like a bridal bouquet.
Lin Xi finally understood why Qi Mo walked a little slowly today, and also knew why Qi Mo put his hands behind his back just now.
She slowly smiled and took the bouquet of wildflowers. "Thank you. This bouquet of flowers is so beautiful. I like it very much."
