The next morning, Butler Ye took Ye Zhiqiu to two places. First, they went to apply for an ID card, and then they went to HSBC to open a bank account and deposited 660,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Ye Zhiqiu thus obtained a passbook and a checkbook, the serial number of which was directly linked to the account. In fact, using them was quite troublesome, not as easy as it seemed on TV!
The amount column must not be left blank to prevent tampering with the amount. The signature must be consistent with that left by the bank. The amount must be written in digits and then in capital letters.
Anyway, it is very troublesome, but it is a symbol of status. Not everyone can get a check at that time. Only those who have a certain balance in their account can apply for this thing.
Ye Zhiqiu didn't need to apply. After all, once he deposited HK$660,000, his exclusive manager naturally gave him this checkbook with a total of 25 pages.
After leaving the bank, the old housekeeper said to Ye Zhiqiu, "Chengyun, we should go back. Your third uncle took a flight this morning and should have arrived at the airport by now. Many of our clansmen will be coming soon, so we need to go back early to greet them."
Ye Zhiqiu nodded and said, "Then let's go back. You've worked so hard, uncle."
Although he is just a housekeeper, he actually has a very high status because he has been with Ye Zuze since he was a child, taking care of him and other people from other branches of the Ye family.
This old butler is the real butler. All the relatives and servants who rely on the family are under his management. The butler in the family is the life manager, and his status is very different from his.
This was also one of the elderly people who pulled Ye Zhiqiu to tears after get off work that day. The Ye family did not only adopt orphans, but also many people from other branches who could not survive and fled thousands of miles to the Ye family in Nanchang.
Therefore, the Ye family is very prosperous, and the entire family business is full of their own people, but their treatment is fixed. There is no case of collateral branches turning against the main family. Anyone with ambition will not choose to work in the family business.
Because the Ye family has family funds that can be applied for, for example, if they want to do business, these collateral family members can apply for interest-free loans to start a business.
However, there is no guarantee. If you apply for funding once and fail, there will be no second attempt, and you cannot return to work in the family business.
It may seem cold-blooded and heartless, but this is how a large family should be managed. Otherwise, if everyone went out to squander the family's wealth and then came back to ask the family to pay for it, the Ye family would have disappeared long ago!
So tonight, not only the third uncle's family will come back, but some collateral relatives will also come back to see him.
These are what the old housekeeper said. The old housekeeper's son will also rush back from Vietnam to meet his cousin.
Ye Zhiqiu was very emotional. This kind of big family really made people feel powerless! The relationship was so complicated, and the key was that it was scattered all over the place.
Moreover, such a family would actually come from afar just to see a lost member of their tribe.
The cohesion of this kind of family is terrifying! With such members, it's like an organization. When something happens, all parties join in, and the powerful energy is truly astonishing.
After returning to the Ye family, Ye Zhiqiu was actually so busy that he couldn't stop. Because many people from Hong Kong Island were already here, led by his fifth brother Ye Chengde, he went to greet other clan members with hugs or handshakes.
Especially some elderly people, who often talked to him a lot. Many of these people were his grandfathers, that is, his grandfather Ye Yaohua’s collateral relatives, or distant brothers.
He kept collecting ID cards, and the gifts they brought were piled up in a pile, and many people gave them red envelopes.
In fact, the Ye family genealogy has an address book, which contains everyone’s phone number or mailing address.
For example, Ye Zhiqiu filled in the mailing address as No. 16, Lane 3, Sanlitun Street, Beijing.
There was one thing that Ye Zhiqiu didn't understand. Why hadn't we heard of such a huge Ye family in later generations?
In fact, Ye Zhiqiu didn’t know that some families have reached a certain level where there is no information about them on the Internet!
All that can be seen are some fragmentary information about the clan members. The Ye family is naturally not a top family, but it has reached the point where it can block information.
In this case, how could an ordinary person like him know?
People always use the tip of the iceberg to describe others as unfathomable, but in fact there are too many families like this.
A "Ye Tianya" who was slightly younger than Ye Zuze strode in. Ye Zhiqiu was chatting with others, and everyone gestured for him to look towards the door.
He turned his head and saw this person. He couldn't help but complain in his heart, another elderly version of Ye Tianya.
The person who came was naturally Ye Tianyou. He looked at Ye Zhiqiu for a long time, then reached out and hugged him.
"Good boy, I finally see you! May our ancestors bless our Ye family. We have finally found our Zuxin branch!"
"Hello, Uncle San, I..."
Ye Zuyou smiled and said, "No need to introduce yourself. When I heard your second brother's call yesterday, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep all night. I finally saw you in person. Good boy, tell me about your father's situation. We spent so much effort over the years. How did he hide? We can't even find him!"
Ye Zhiqiu had no choice but to tell his third uncle about the experience that Ye Tianya had told him.
Ye Zuyou was so angry that he cursed loudly: "This idiot! I told him before, don't always be so smart! Why change his name and run away to the countryside? It's really infuriating! If he hadn't run away to the capital, if he hadn't changed his name, we would have recognized each other a long time ago! This idiot, when I see him, I will definitely use the family law to beat him!"
Ye Zhiqiu's eyelids twitched, but he wasn't slapping himself. In fact, he also felt that Ye Tianya deserved it!
He had money but was afraid of death. If he had taken two big yellow croakers to the city to exchange for a job, it would not have been difficult to get a household registration at that time, and the Ye family would not have had to suffer in the countryside for so many years!
But after all, there was some emotion, so he didn't add fuel to the fire. He just smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Ye Zuyou's wife and two children came in with things, and he introduced them to them.
The only people who came were Ye Zuyou’s wife Zhao Huairou, his third daughter Ye Chengwan, and his fourth son Ye Chenggong.
Ye Zhiqiu walked forward and gave a gentle hug to a few people, saying hello to each other, and then Zhao Huairou handed him the gift.
Today, the family also arranged for the hotel’s chef to come back, and it was a lively scene with so many people.
Fortunately, the living room was big enough! Over seventy people were sitting or standing around chatting. If the first-floor living room was smaller, it would have been crowded.
There are so many people coming that Ye Zhiqiu can’t even remember all their names. It’s really exaggerated.
