Chapter 513 Sotheby's Rushes to Arrive



What if there are still people who are unwilling to give up, or who have seen through Lin Sanqi's tricks and are determined to take over Lingnan Hall?

That's easy. Just pack up and leave. Don't bother with Southern Pharmaceutical Factory, Lingnantang Pharmaceutical Company, and even the Chinese medicine clinic.

Leave it to you, all for you.

In addition, the company has not repaid the billions of dollars in debt owed to banks, and whoever wants to acquire the company will have to pay it back. It is using a rogue approach to defeat the rogue hostile takeover.

If the other party's capital power is very strong and they cannot escape like Mr. Wang, the richest man, they must pay back the money before they can leave.

Then just pay it back. Lin Sanqi is not short of money. Saving his life is the top priority at this time.

But he still wouldn't hand over the ginseng and cordyceps. At worst, the small amount of stock in the underground warehouse of May Square would be embezzled by someone, but that wouldn't cause Lin Sanqi any great grief.

Seeing that everyone seemed to be thinking deeply, Lin Sanqi continued to deceive:

"Also, logically speaking, if the drugs our pharmaceutical factory produces can't be sold and are piling up in the warehouse, shouldn't we be very anxious? What should we do?"

Zhong Yangyang replied cautiously, "Should we increase media publicity?"

Lin Sanqi slammed the table and said excitedly:

"Yes, that's right. We should advertise heavily. Advertising is a big expense. As far as I know, if a movie wants to do well at the box office, the publicity and promotion expenses can account for half of the cost.

Our pharmaceutical company wants to sell its medicines, including the Lingnantang Chinese Medicine Clinic, sales companies, and so on, which all require publicity and promotion expenses. Uncle Shi is here too, so you can definitely think of more ways to fabricate more expenses, the more the better.

Another question is whether our production line is outdated. Should we upgrade it? Would this require a significant investment?

Another crucial point is that we can't mistreat our employees. As a boss, I'm already making a ton of money, and I can't let my employees live in misery on meager wages. So, we're giving our frontline workers a raise. For now, we're doubling their income this year, and that's it.

In short, the combined annual profits of Lingnan Tang's companies must not exceed 200 million yuan. As for taxes, we must pay them honestly. We paid 2 billion yuan last year, and this year we will strive to exceed 4 billion yuan.

If we pay more taxes and become a star enterprise, the government will provide us with a solid backing. If anyone dares to covet our Lingnan Hall, the government will naturally help us avoid disasters and difficulties. This is a win-win situation."

The more Lin Sanqi talked, the more Manager Huang and Finance Zhong recorded.

Finally, after filling up half of the notebook, Lin Sanqi took a sip of water:

"Old Huang, just follow the advice I just gave you and execute it one by one. By the end of the year, if your Southern Pharmaceutical Factory becomes a major loss-maker, I will personally give you a big prize.

"Of course, Old Huang, let's be frank. I'm going to make you suffer a huge loss on paper, but I'm not going to actually suffer a huge loss. Don't worry, your annual salary is over 5 million, plus there's an additional year-end bonus. I hope you won't be tempted by the benefits again."

Huang Yushu's face instantly turned red when he heard this:

"Boss, don't worry. I'm just an ordinary mediocre person. If you trust me and put me in this position, would I still be a human being if I did something messy again?"

Lin Sanqi initially believed in Huang Yushu's character, but he knew that he was young and inexperienced, and sometimes his judgment of people might not be accurate.

So he looked at the beautiful girl Zhong Yangyang on the other side, who was also Yin Lianyi's classmate.

"Xiao Zhong, as the on-site financial officer, you must keep a close eye on things. You need to prepare two account books, one for the public and one for the private. If you have any questions, just ask Lianyi. After all, you are classmates and have something in common.

The people in this room are the core of our Lingnan Hall. I am also speaking the truth. It is too difficult to do business now. Domestic and foreign capital are eyeing us covetously. Our Lingnan Hall is trying to survive in the cracks. Although the turnover is high, the profit is actually not that considerable.

You are all veterans who started this business with me. The company may not go public in the future, but I can guarantee that you can all become multi-millionaires or even billionaires, so let us work together to make this company a success."

Lin Tianhua applauded first~~

"Boss, you're right. While we're making money, we also need to protect ourselves and not become targets of prey. Also, I have one more thing to add: Lianyi, you guys must be very careful with your accounting."

It would be best to have an accounting firm, or ask professors at your school, to conduct regular financial audits. If anyone wants to attack us, they will definitely find loopholes in the account books, and we will absolutely not allow them to take advantage of this."

Yin Lianyi quickly nodded in agreement:

"Okay, Mr. Lin, I will definitely take care of the finances."

There is a saying in the world that an accountant who cannot cook the books is not a good accountant and needs to go to Tilanqiao for further training.

Lin Tianhua was about to give a few more instructions when his phone suddenly rang:

"Yeah, okay. The auction house is coming, right? Okay, you arrange for them to go to the VIP room to rest for a while. The boss and I will come back and then we will go to the warehouse together."

Lin Tianhua put down the phone and said with a smile:

"Boss, I took some antique photos yesterday and sent them to Sotheby's and Christie's in Hong Kong. Sotheby's immediately sent an appraisal expert and a business delegation over today. It seems they're even more anxious than we are."

Lin Sanqi thought, of course he was anxious, the antiques he took out were basically first-class cultural relics, a small number were second-class cultural relics, and some could be called national treasures.

If an auction sells for 5 billion yuan, the auction house can take away more than 1 billion yuan by taking a commission, which is a huge profit.

"Okay, let's end this secret meeting today. Only the five of us know about this fraud, so don't let any of you spill the beans."

At the gate of Southern Pharmaceutical Factory, Huang Yushu and Zhong Yangyang kept waving and saw the boss off.

Two Maybachs drove towards Plaza de Mayo.

In the car, Lin Sanqi was still a little worried. He only trusted his girlfriend now:

"Lianyi, this Southern Pharmaceutical Factory has shouldered the heavy responsibility for our Lingnan Hall's losses. The things I just taught you, when put into practice, have too many loopholes and are too prone to corruption. Huang Yushu is an honest man, but people can change.

It will definitely not be enough to rely on a little girl like Zhong Yangyang, so you should send a few more financial officers over. Every transaction of Southern Pharmaceutical Factory must be carefully reviewed, and all invoices above 5 million must have your signature and approval before the loan can be released.

If your finance department is short of staff, you can continue to recruit people. You are my wife, so I trust your judgment, hehe."

Yin Lianyi felt very happy after hearing this, and nodded happily while leaning in Lin Sanqi's arms.

But she had no idea that there was actually a team of professors from Huadu University of Finance and Economics who were not only helping Lin Sanqi transfer funds overseas, but were also secretly monitoring the finance department of Lingnan Hall.

If there is any major violation of financial regulations in the Finance Department, Lin Sanqi will be the first to know, and Lin Musen will confiscate the official seal and modify the electronic key to prevent large sums of money from being transferred.

In this world, Lin Sanqi trusts no one except his biological parents.

In the afternoon, in the underground garage of Plaza de Mayo.

Hearing that Lin Sanqi had obtained a batch of antiques for auction, curious Uncle Lin also rushed over.

Uncle Lin asked curiously:

"Qizi, I heard you got a dragon throne this time. The one the emperor used to put in the center of the palace?"

Lin Sanqi supported the old patriarch and replied humbly:

"Grandpa, that's true. The full name of that dragon throne is... what's it called? Let me check the list. Oh, it's called the Golden Nanmu Carved Eight Treasures Cloud and Bat Pattern Water Wave Cloud Dragon Throne. It can be confirmed to be a dragon throne from the Jiajing Emperor's reign in the Ming Dynasty."

Bai Wenzhe, an appraisal expert invited by Sotheby's and a senior researcher at the Dongguang Provincial Museum, heard this from behind and couldn't help asking:

"Mr. Lin, have you ever counted the number of dragon claws on this golden nanmu throne with eight-treasure cloud and bat patterns and water waves and dragon patterns?"

Lin Sanqi stretched out a hand, thinking that he knew the answer to this question, so he stretched out his hand and said:

"Five-clawed golden dragons. The entire chair is covered in five-clawed golden dragons. There are at least ten of them."

“Hiss~~~”

Bai Wenzhe gasped, wondering if this was the real thing, how could such a national treasure have been found? Could there be some kind of conspiracy at the Forbidden City?

Uncle Lin was thinking about something else, so he quietly suggested:

"Qizi, if it really is a dragon throne, do you think we can put it in the ancestral hall and then place the tablet of our ancestor on this dragon throne? Wouldn't that be majestic enough? Our ancestors can also experience the feeling of being an emperor."

Lin Sanqi was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly:

"Grandpa, forget about the throne. I'm afraid our ancestors won't be able to enjoy it. Please don't burden our weak descendants."

Uncle Lin patted Lin Sanqi's hands:

"Damn it! To be the ancestor of our Lin family, he must have a very strong horoscope. What do you know, little brat? Come on, show me the dragon throne."

Bai Wenzhe was also a little impatient. The cultural relics in the warehouse in the photo were no worse than those in the Forbidden City and far better than those in the Dongguan Provincial Museum. He was really curious.

After passing through layers of security checks and agencies, we finally arrived at the warehouse area on the fourth underground floor.

The lights were all turned on, and antique exhibits appeared in front of everyone. Bai Wenzhe was stunned for a moment, not moving.

Huang Delai, the deputy general manager of Sotheby's, was shocked: "Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai, are you okay?"

If an elderly person suddenly stops moving, people might be worried about a stroke or a heart attack, and then collapse to the ground. That would be a lot of fun.

Bai Wenzhe came back to his senses, sweating, and said in a trembling voice:

"Mr. Huang, today's appraisal is beyond the capacity of just a few of us. We have to invite all the experts and professors from our museum to come over."

Huang Delai's heartbeat suddenly quickened, knowing that a big business deal had come his way. (End of this chapter)
