Hearing his girlfriend's naive remarks, Lin Sanqi couldn't help but burst into laughter again:
"Then ask Saddam Hussein of Iraq. Didn't the Americans say he possessed weapons of mass destruction, posing a threat to the entire world, and therefore he had to pay the price? But you've also watched the news. Did Saddam Hussein have any?"
Don't think the US is the world's beacon. The dirtiest country is the US. Whether the world is in chaos or not is up to the US. They're ruthless abroad and even more ruthless at home. Ultimately, it's just the deep state controlled by a few.
Yin Lianyi was a little surprised and thought for a moment:
"According to your point of view, there are no good people in Hongdong County anymore? There are villains everywhere who want to harm me."
Lin Sanqi sighed:
"How can there be good people in politics? It's the same all over the world. Like your future father-in-law, my father, how can such an honest man be the village chief?
Therefore, we should keep a distance from politicians, not take sides, not rely on them, and always be vigilant against them. At the same time, we should also know how to appropriately spend our wealth to avoid disasters.
When I read novels in the past, the protagonist could become the richest man in the country or even the world with just a few casual operations. It seemed as if I had traveled through time and made money easier than drinking water.
But in reality, we find that if you have money but no power, you are just a fat sheep in the eyes of others, such as Shen Wansan of the Ming Dynasty, who will be slaughtered after he is fat.
Even if you are powerful and wealthy, you still have to be on guard against killing your opponents, otherwise your property will be confiscated sooner or later and you will become someone else's puppet, like Lu Buwei of the Qin Dynasty and Lord He of the Qing Dynasty.
The funniest thing is Yan Ge Lao of the Ming Dynasty. The Qing official Xu Jie who overthrew him was actually more greedy than Yan Ge Lao. The whole of Shanghai belonged to their family. This is the hypocrisy and greed of politicians.
As for those who have power but no money, well, do such people exist? I guess they only exist in Leshan. Anyway, I can't find any.
Now I believe what Jack Ma said when he said the happiest time in his life was when he was a teacher earning 91 yuan a month.
Actually, there is some truth to that, because at that time he didn't need to engage in intrigue, as long as he had enough money, he wouldn't have to worry about money. "
Lin Sanqi thought that Mr. Ma’s troubles were still to come, and in the end he wouldn’t even be able to stay in China.
Hey, wait, it’s only 2015 now, how does he know what will happen in the future? He’s messing around again.
At this time, snow began to fall on the streets of Manhattan in winter. Americans were used to it, but people from the southern part of Manhattan were so surprised that they started screaming.
Yin Lianyi played in the snow for a long time, and suddenly asked her boyfriend:
"Hey, Thirteen, the new year is about to begin. Do you have any career plans or life goals?"
Lin Sanqi felt the coldness of the United States, as well as the various dressed-up monsters that passed by from time to time, neither male nor female, and then he said slowly:
“First of all, I hope that the project I’m collaborating on with the school can produce results within 2015. Then, based on these results, I can apply for a patented drug and build a pharmaceutical factory.
Secondly, we've made so much money, and although I can't tell you where it came from, at least I need to convert the money I earn domestically into goods to export abroad, which is essentially a kickback to my financial sponsor."
Yin Lianyi stopped and pinched her boyfriend again:
"What about our relationship? Are we going to keep doing this secretly?"
Lin Sanqi gently hugged his girlfriend and kissed her:
"How could that be? Our new house has been built, and now I have made money and have achieved success. The next step is to get married and have children.
You also know the relationship between our two villages. It's not that we are incompatible, but at least we don't like each other.
How to break the deadlock and make the grandfathers in the two villages recognize us is something we need to find a way to solve in 2015.
Here's what I'm thinking: how about you get pregnant first? We can get married with the baby, and then we'll force them to do something about it and see what they'll do.
Yin Lianyi blushed when she heard this:
"I'm not afraid of getting pregnant with your baby. I've already decided to be with you for the rest of my life. But will both families agree if I get pregnant?"
Lin Sanqi snorted and sneered:
"Think about it, if I marry the beauty from our sworn enemy, Pingle Village, doesn't that bring honor to our Shilou Village? I don't think Grandpa Lin would object too strongly. After all, it's our Shilou Village that's adding to the family, and Pingle Village that's bringing shame.
Your village has suffered a loss, and your grandfather will definitely not let it go. So what should we do? My only advantage now is my wealth. If things get worse, I can just throw money at you. I'll give your family a dowry of 888 million yuan. Would your parents be tempted?
If 888 million isn't enough, then 1.888 billion, 2.888 billion. I don't believe your parents will remain indifferent after throwing out the highest betrothal gift in the country. We in Huadu value face the most. Your parents have both face and money."
Yin Lianyi hit her boyfriend lightly:
"Bah, do you think my parents are selling or marrying off their daughter?"
The reason why Lin Sanqi was not afraid of paying a sky-high dowry was that in the coastal areas, mainly Zhejiang Province, Hujian Province, and Dongguang Province, when marrying off a daughter, the girl's parents would not withhold the dowry.
In wealthier regions, the woman will not withhold the gift when the man gives it, but will add some dowry and then give it back to her daughter as a dowry and as start-up capital for her small family.
It is said that the poorer the place, the higher the bride price. The woman's family will at most give you two quilts as a dowry. The money will not be returned to you or given to their daughter.
Lin Sanqi continued to offer advice at this time:
"I'll donate another 100 million to repair the ancestral hall in your Pingle Village. Will your Grandpa Yin be tempted? If you're not tempted by 100 million, then 200 million, 300 million, I don't believe there are people in this world who don't love money, hehe."
Yin Lianyi smiled slyly:
"What if we use money to force our separation but can't get the consent of both sets of parents and the ancestral hall? What if they insist on breaking us up?"
Lin Sanqi waved his hand and said confidently:
"Then let's elope, close the company, and live abroad. We don't need the family's help anymore. At worst, you can give me seven or eight sons. Then we can be honored by our sons and enter the ancestral hall."
When Yin Lianyi heard this, her eyes lit up and she hugged her boyfriend with emotion:
"Okay, I'll give you seven or eight sons. Then we'll become the couple with the most children in the family. I don't believe the ancestral hall won't recognize us."
Large families in the south attach great importance to sons, especially those in Hu Jian and Guangdong and Guangxi, including southern Zhejiang.
Being unable to have children is a sin. No matter how rich you are, you will have no status in the family because your family will be extinct and you will be sorry to your ancestors.
If you make a mistake, but you can give birth to a bunch of sons, it means that you have made outstanding contributions to the continuation of the family, and your past sins will be wiped out.
You are the "hero parents".
So women in the south are unfortunate because they naturally want to give birth to sons, and if they can't give birth to sons, they will keep giving birth.
There are even many areas where a wedding is held only after a woman gives birth to a son, officially recognizing her status as the eldest wife. Otherwise, a woman who cannot give birth to a son can easily be replaced and driven away.
Although Yin Lianyi is a strong woman and has received modern education, she is still traditional at heart and agrees with the traditional concept of having a son.
Of course, she knew in her heart that if she had more sons, the family property would all belong to her in the future.
If there is no son, it means that the family property may fall into the hands of others in the future.
Either the clan members are wiped out, or the son is a bastard born to a mistress. It is very cruel.
The next day, the two went to Citibank's headquarters on Wall Street again.
Several managers from Citibank's securities department were already waiting. Lin Sanqi was a Citibank Black Gold Card user, so naturally he would enjoy VIP treatment wherever he went.
"Lin, welcome to our Citibank headquarters. Your wife is very beautiful. My name is Franklin, and I will be handling your business today."
Lin Sanqi also stretched out his hand:
"Franklin? Wow, what a great name! I like it. As we Chinese say, we want to share in your joy. Haha."
Yin Lianyi also shook hands with the American manager and was very pleased to be addressed as Mrs. Lin.
"Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin, please come in."
"please!"
In the VIP room, Franklin gave Lin Sanqi a financial assessment:
"Lin, you're truly an investment genius. Your US stock investments have already brought you over $800 million in revenue, far exceeding the returns of typical fund companies. So, what investment adjustments do you need to make next?"
Lin Sanqi only buys U.S. technology stocks, and he only buys stocks of several leading companies.
For example, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Nvidia, Tesla, etc., these companies are almost all unicorn companies with few competitors, and making profits is not a problem at all.
The key lies in the large market capitalization of these stocks. For example, Apple's market capitalization in 2013 was 480 billion. Lin Sanqi threw in more than one billion US dollars, but not a single ripple was created.
"Mr. Franklin, please continue to buy U.S. stocks for me this year. The cap on each of the stocks I've selected is 4.99%."
If it exceeds 5%, you need to report to the securities regulatory authorities, which is the so-called raising of the sign, and tell everyone how many shares you hold.
But reporting it actually tells everyone that a new fat sheep has arrived. Unless they are from an old political family, most people will hide their shareholder status. (End of this chapter)
