Even the barrister Lin Dezhi was a little surprised:
"Qizai, how many gold bars do you have here? That's too much, isn't it?"
Lin Sanqi replied calmly:
"There are about 3,200 of them, each weighing about 312 grams. This is the yellow croaker that was shown in TV dramas during the Republic of China.
This time I took out a whole ton of gold, just to use as a betrothal gift.
At that time, the gold will be displayed for everyone to see and carried to welcome the bride.
Myna, you have to do a good job of security. When we get there, we'll not only have gold, but we'll also have boxes and boxes of cash."
Lin Yaliang felt a great deal of pressure when he heard this:
"Qizi, you said the betrothal gift was 188 million RMB. That would weigh almost two tons. Did you send it all in cash?"
Yin Lianyi covered her face at this time, feeling so embarrassed.
Lin Sanqi glanced at his girlfriend with pride, then smiled and said:
"Grandpa Yin set numerous conditions to prevent me from marrying Ayi. Now I don't have much else but money, so I'm using this most extravagant and domineering method, using gold and cash to pave the way.
To put it bluntly, I just want to use this method to slap the face of the Yin family grandfather, and at the same time let the Yin clan members know that when a Yin family girl marries into our Lin family, we will treat her like a treasure. Let's see who dares to look down on my wife in the future. Humph."
Fourth Uncle Lin Benzhai looked at the gold in front of him and shook his head:
"You are domineering, but you are not polite enough. Qizi, you have shown off your wealth thoroughly this time."
Lin Sanqi wanted to tell his fourth uncle that he had swindled 500 million yuan from the Yin family's grandfather, and all the expenses for the wedding were actually sponsored by the Yin family.
However, there were many people at the scene and they were talking a lot. If this matter were to get out, it might be possible that Grandpa Yin would come to the door and beat them up, so Lin Sanqi held back and said nothing.
"Uncle Si, it's okay. I've transferred all the assets that needed to be transferred, and I've paid every penny of tax that needed to be paid. Unless someone wants to frame me and fabricates a crime, they'll find that I'm clean even if they check my accounts and taxes."
At this time, the eldest brother Lin Yangping also hurried over:
"Sorry, Uncle Four, Uncle Nine, Uncle Sixteen, I just had a meeting and am late."
Lin Yangping is now the director of the Food and Drug Administration, and with Lin Sanqi spending hundreds of billions on purchases, the Lin family's role is becoming increasingly important.
Lin Sanqi has already received a hint that after the Chinese New Year, Lin Yangping will make another move up the ladder and become the biggest name in the Lin family in official circles.
In the old man's eyes, the weight of a deputy mayor is far greater than that of Lin Sanqi, a billionaire. Chinese people always have an obsession with being an official.
Lin Yangping then greeted his peers present before asking:
"What did you just say about tax and accounting audits?"
Lin Sanqi explained with a smile, "Fourth Uncle is worried that I'll be too ostentatious when I get married, carrying tons of gold and cash around, and that it'll be easy to show off my wealth."
Lin Yangping nodded and said, "It's true that he's showing off his wealth."
"But it's not a big problem. Don't forget that Lingnan Group's total tax revenue this year exceeds 10 billion.
Do you know what this means? In terms of tax payment rankings, Lingnan Group has reached 97th place among private enterprises nationwide. And in Huadu City, it's also in the top 10.
Maybe you have no idea about this data. Let me describe it this way. In Chaozhou area under Dongguan, the local public fiscal revenue of the whole city was only 4.7 billion yuan in 2015, while the tax revenue of Lingnan Group was 13 billion yuan.
Such a star enterprise is a hot commodity in the eyes of leaders.
As long as Qizi doesn't commit suicide, or as long as there is pressure from above, Lingnan Group will definitely be protected by our Huadu, or even Dongguang Province."
Although Lin Sanqi is a small boss in this time and space, he is also someone who can sit at the table and eat in another time and space.
He understood that if the enterprise was protected by Dongguan Province, it would most likely be able to rest easy.
Don't forget the level of the boss of Dongguan Province. There are only about ten people who are higher than him, and almost no one can afford to offend him.
Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi was happy, so he asked again:
"Brother, I asked you to personally invite the leaders to the wedding for me. How is it going now?"
Grandpa Lin had instructed that local officials must be invited to attend weddings. This was not only a form of protection, but also a matter of bringing honor to the family.
Lin Pingyang shook his head and smiled:
"The main responsible leader definitely won't attend an entrepreneur's wedding, so forget it. However, the leaders in charge and the main leader's secretary will be there. By the way, have you contacted the other leaders yet?"
Lin Sanqi's wedding has now turned into a show for the Lin clan to display its strength, and all the Lin family members have been mobilized.
Lin Sanqi thought for a moment and said:
"My connections are mainly with the military. The chairman of Shaanxi Aircraft Industry Group, the chairman of Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group, and the chairman of China North Industries Group Corporation will all come here in person. They also helped me arrange for the head of the headquarters responsible for equipment to come along.
In addition, Section Chief Song from the Special Department will also be here. His identity is rather special and is usually not publicly announced, so he will definitely be sitting quietly in the corner. But anyone who is paying attention will definitely notice.
As for business friends, there are more of them. After all, those entrepreneurs all want to buy wild ginseng or other medicinal materials from our Lingnan Hall, so they will definitely give me this face.
What is certain is that hundreds of business leaders will attend my wedding, many of whom are on the Forbes "Millionaires" list. People from Hong Kong will also be there.
Lin Pingyang evaluated it in his mind and thought that with so many powerful and wealthy people coming, the scale and level were sufficient.
At this time, Lin Bei, the manager of the African branch, also reported:
"Brother, the leader from Madagascar that you asked me to invite is also here. If nothing goes wrong, it's their general manager who's here in person."
Lin Yangping was delighted when he heard this:
"Wow, Madagascar is showing such respect? They even sent their second-in-command here. That's a huge honor."
Lin Bei curled his lips and said:
"Respect is nothing compared to money. General Manager Rakutu Maharu asked for $2 million straight away, and even included round-trip airfare, food, and lodging. This is more expensive than hiring a Hollywood star."
Lin Pingyang laughed when he heard this, patted his cousin on the shoulder and said:
"It's worth it to have a general manager of a country come here for 2 million. If he comes, the leaders of our domestic and foreign affairs departments will have to come too. This will bring honor to our Lin family. Reputation can't be bought back with any amount of money.
In addition, by building a good relationship with General Manager Lakutu Maharu, Lingnan Group can purchase sensitive materials in the future under the official name, thus eliminating the need for review and preventing artificial obstruction.
Lin Sanqi also nodded and said:
"Madagascar is very important to our Lingnan Group. With this springboard, we can do more and bigger business without having to transfer funds back to China, so we must maintain a good relationship between the two sides."
Lin Yangping looked at Yin Lianyi again at this time.
As the eldest brother, he was appointed by Grandpa Lin to be the general director of the wedding, so he had to be comprehensive:
"Ayi, have you finished all the preparations at home?"
Yin Lianyi quickly replied respectfully:
"Brother, our family is ready too. We will have 500 tables for the wedding banquet, and my father plans to invite the whole village to the wedding banquet."
The Yin family also wants to save face, at least in terms of the number of banquets they host, they are on par with the Lin family.
This matter was not something that Yin Shengrong, the father-in-law, had the right to do. It involved the reputation of the entire village and clan. Even Grandpa Yin, as the clan leader, had to make a big deal about it so that Shilou Village would not steal the limelight.
Lin Sanqi then raised a difficult question:
"Brother, we have a rather troublesome problem. Our two families are both in the village within the city, and the winding paths in the village make it difficult for a 36-person sedan chair to enter."
Lin Yangping smiled and said:
"I've already thought of a plan for this. The entire village has been paved with red carpets. You need to walk out on your own to the nearest Huangpu Avenue, then get on a 36-person sedan chair. With a ceremonial guard leading the way, you'll head to Shilou Village."
Lin Sanqi said a little worriedly:
"Brother, the entire wedding procession has at least a thousand people. It's a long, mighty procession. Will it block Huangpu Avenue? If this gets posted online, our Lin family will be cursed to death."
Lin Yangping laughed out loud when he heard this:
"For your wedding, we have applied to temporarily close half of Huangpu Avenue on the pretext of a traditional folk activity in Huadu during the Spring Festival. Reporters from various media outlets will come to cover the event, and even experts from the Palace Museum will come.
Traffic police will be on hand to direct the route. We'll exit from Huangpu Avenue and make a semicircle along Tianhe East Road, which should take no more than two hours. Plus, traffic is light on New Year's Day, so there won't be any congestion.
Your wedding must follow ancient traditions while showcasing the unique characteristics of our Huadu. It will be made into a documentary and broadcast nationwide, making it a perfect film for promotion by the cultural and tourism departments."
Lin Sanqi gave a thumbs up:
"Brother, you're really smart. You know how to find a way out of a difficult situation. You've easily solved this huge problem." (End of this chapter)
