Chapter Seventy-Four: A Family Gathering

In the midst of the busyness of the family, the day of the party soon came.

The first guests to come to Stone Ranch were, of course, the two employees Shi Lei had just hired, Greens, a private property consultant, and Liu Jie, a private accountant. Their employment contracts will be brought with them by Jack Lee when he arrives.

Of course, in the contract, these two people are employed by the ROCKSTONE investment company to which Shi Lei belongs, and the future situation depends on Liu Jie's arrangement.

In the morning, Shi Lei was introducing his industry to the two people, and at the same time, he was deepening the understanding between the two parties.

Overall, Shi Lei is still very satisfied with the expression of the two, but now he still has reservations about the trust between the two people, after all, he has just started contact.

Under Shi Lei's warm invitation, the two of them also agreed to participate in the evening party, which was an important opportunity for them to better understand Shi Lei.

It can be known whether Shi Lei's contacts are extensive, and how influential he is in all aspects, especially in his own industry, which is related to the future development prospects of the two, and of course, the initial contact and handover with Shi Lei's relevant people in various industries.

Now that it has been determined that these two people will be used, Shi Lei introduced them and their families to each other, and used this kind of action to tactfully show that the two are now Shi Lei's friends and family, which is a kind of acceptance of them.

After lunch, it was not very long, and Jack Lee took his big beauty queen Yanyan and little beauty Li Yaoli to the ranch in the dust.

Jack Lee was very attentive to preparing gifts for Shi Lei's family, especially to Shi Lei's parents, showing the posture of a nephew in the next life, with some respect, but not at all.

Dad and Mom were very happy about Jack Lee's appearance, and after they knew the relationship between Jack Lee and Shi Lei, they knew that Jack Lee could be said to be a very important figure to Shi Lei's career.

After hearing Shi Lei introduce Jack Lee's experience and their relationship with Little Kelly (Li Yaoli), my parents liked this guy who was still full of love despite going through a lot of hardships.

So it's natural for parents to regard the Jack Lee family as close nephews. Let Jack Lee and Wang Yanyan into the house, and then their parents chatted with them.

"Ah, hello sister, let's hang out together." Guoguo, who had already seen a big sister coming, called Li Yaoli away without seeing anything.

Guoguo and the bear children in the ranch obviously don't understand the language, but after playing together for so long, both sides can understand each other's meaning very well, and I believe that the communication between her and Li Yaoli will not be a problem.

And Li Yaoli, who is usually a little lonely at school, is also very happy to go out with these children.

Jack Lee chatted with Shi Lei's parents for a while, and then Shi Lei called in front of the other two, planning to let them contact a few people. And Wang Yanyan was called by her mother to go and prepare the dinner for the evening party together.

I heard that Wang Yanyan's scrambled eggs with tomatoes are very delicious, and they are very popular with the Chinese and foreign neighbors around her, so I handed over this dish to her.

Of course, she undoubtedly makes sweet scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and it is said that all foreigners have a craving for this sweet dish, which belongs to the kind of dish that is fresh in one stroke.

Shi Lei took Jack Lee to Grimes and Liu Jie, introduced them to each other, and then let them handle the handover by themselves.

Jack Lee first took out a few contracts for Shi Lei to see, and Shi Lei signed his name after reading them carefully, and then handed the contracts to Grims and Liu Jie respectively. After reading it, the two also said that they had no opinion, so they signed their names as well.

After that, there were some handovers between Jack Lee and the two, explaining Shi Lei's industrial situation, the current division of assets, etc., and of course, telling Liu Jie about how Shi Lei's assets worked, how to convert between various offshore companies and accounts, and so on.

Although Shi Lei has not studied these specific details very carefully, now his smart brain has allowed Shi Lei to quickly sort out his thoughts and understand the subordinate relationship and control methods between various companies.

And the context in Shi Lei's mind is very clear, and even all the company and account names are clearly remembered, and it is because of this that Shi Lei showed his trust in the two who just came, and he is not afraid of what the two can do anyway.

After sitting with these three people for a while, and after the handover was completed, Shi Lei hurriedly ran to move all the cooking utensils used for barbecue to a suitable place, and the people attending the party were about to arrive.

Then, Shi Lei and the others welcomed the third team of guests, Laura's father Colin Huang and mother Emily Huang came hand in hand.

Hearing that they had arrived, Shi Lei's parents hurriedly took their family to the door to greet their future in-laws.

Let the two of them sit down in the living room, Shi Lei's parents chatted with Laura's parents very attentively.

Both parents are teachers, so there's a lot to talk about. Coupled with the fact that Laura's parents are also fluent in Chinese, their communication is even more problematic.

Sure enough, the two pairs of parents quickly chatted happily, after all, they have a lot of common topics, whether it is educating students or educating children, whether it is their own interests and hobbies or life attitude, they have too much in common, which makes their chat undoubtedly a lot more pleasant.

Of course, it is also these commonalities that have created two people like Shi Lei and Laura with such harmonious personalities, which also makes the parents of the two families more assured about Shi Lei and Laura's relationship after learning about each other's families.

At the very least, neither of the two families can produce morally corrupt bastards, so there is no need to worry about the two young people going through any other injuries, and the rest is just to see how far the two can go.

happily chatted with the parents of both sides for a while, and guests began to come outside one after another. Shi Lei took Laura, who is now more of a hostess, to the door of the main room to greet the guests.

The guests also knew that Shi Lei had prepared this party to welcome the arrival of his family, so they all brought some beautifully packaged small gifts.

Of course, Shi Lei also wanted to return the gift when he came back, but fortunately, when he returned to China this time, he consigned a lot of things by the way, which were specially used as gifts for friends.

Seeing that Lincoln's family of three was here, Shi Lei led Laura and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Mr. Franklin, thank you very much for your help." Shi Lei said very sincerely, "I am really satisfied with this car." Shi Lei pointed to the black dragon and told Franklin, and then repeatedly expressed his sincere gratitude for providing him with so much help.

Behind the Lincoln family, Shi Lei's young friends, such as Alexander the tech nerd, Robinson, and John Jr., who grew up on the ranch, all came.

McRae and Old John are also not lacking, and Principal Yang, who is the pride of the Chinese, also came with his wife.

It wasn't until the crowd was almost here that Shi Lei announced the official start of the dinner.

The first content is, of course, to the point, Shi Lei seriously introduced his family to all the people who came, and then let everyone move freely, and he took his family to introduce a few familiar people one by one.

After that, it was completely let go, and everyone could eat, drink and have fun to their heart's content.

Shi Lei and Laura accompanied Robinson and their young people to the edge of the heated swimming pool outside, playing in the water if they wanted to play in the water, and roasting by themselves if they wanted to do their own BBQ, and the others were also playing leisurely, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

Mom and Dad were in the room chatting with people of about the same age about what they were interested in. When my father was in China, he was also a man of the year in the education industry, and he had a lot of contact with all kinds of people, so he was able to deal with it easily.

Dad can always quickly find common topics with people to chat very speculatively, plus Laura's parents and Principal Yang are by the side to help, and sometimes act as a translator for their parents, their communication is quite pleasant, of course, in fact, the focus of the chat is still on Laura's parents and Principal Yang.

After chatting for a while, Shi Lei called Grimes and Liu Jie over again and introduced them and Robinson to each other. This group of smart guys obviously understood what Shi Lei meant, so they began to talk to the two of them about their cooperation with Shi Lei, intentionally or unintentionally.

Xu Xiaoxiao also sent an invitation to Greens, hoping that he would have time to visit his own vineyard, which was an invitation in disguise to investigate, and it seemed that his desire to cooperate with Shi Lei was more urgent.

Shi Lei also talked to McRae about the cooperation of wineries before. The reason why I have to cooperate with Shi Lei is that in addition to knowing that Shi Lei has a large amount of idle funds in his hands, it can also be regarded as a friendship.

McRae also knew that Shi Lei's acquisition of Stone Ranch from him at that time seemed to be an act of robbery, but in fact, it saved his wine business in disguise, especially the two million dollars invested later, which was a charcoal in the snow.

And there is also a very important point, that is, if they cooperate with Shi Lei, they only pay a part of the shares, or Shi Lei is in exchange for real money.

Even if it fails, they will not lose everything they have and destroy their foundation like a bank loan, especially since McRae's entire belongings at that time were almost all lost to the bank.

As for Xu Xiaoxiao, he is just a newcomer now, not like Shi Lei, who has been here for a short time and has made a lot of powerful friends, so cooperation is also very beneficial to him, and he can use Shi Lei's friends to open up his road.

Besides, Shi Lei has always been a hands-off shopkeeper, only taking shares and ignoring specific affairs, and now that he has the agent of Greens, Shi Lei doesn't want to spend energy on these aspects, anyway, he has to come to the aisle in the end if there is anything, he can know very clearly what the development process is, and he is not afraid of being fooled.

Greens looked up at Shi Lei and wanted to ask for the boss's opinion, and when he saw Shi Lei nodding, he happily agreed to Xu Xiaoxiao's invitation.

Since the boss has the intention of cooperating, it is good to be responsible for inspecting the prospects of the project in the past, and you can also estimate the investment and shareholding.

As the first thing to join the boss, and it happens to be the field that you are best at, you can show your value to the boss, otherwise why is the boss paying such a high salary and bonus.
