Chapter 12: The Great Gamble of Life
Lin Xuanlan watched the 'door' of the elevator close slowly, but he almost caught Lu Feiyu, I don't know why, he suddenly wanted to laugh with a bad taste......
"If you want to laugh, laugh!" Zhan Bai said suddenly.
"Huh?" Lin Xuanlan was stunned, but a hint of a smile slowly bloomed on her face.
"You don't get tired of living like this?" Zhan Bai asked curiously.
Lin Xuanlan sighed when he heard this, nodded, and shook his head - this kind of life is really tiring, but what is his way, when he was very young, he knew his mission, and with a gentle smile and a handsome appearance, he covered up the emptiness and helplessness in his heart, and covered up his seven emotions and six 'desires'.
He is perfect, suave, personable, plus good birth, handsome appearance, he is simply impeccable.
However, the more others think he is perfect, the more he feels too stressed.
"People, always have to live for themselves to live in vain, while pressing a number on the elevator. Lin Xuanlan looked at the number and frowned slightly, "It's not the housekeeping department." β
"I know, I booked a room there," Zhan Bai said, "I think there are some things that may need to be discussed." β
Thirty-second floor, this is indeed not a guest room. However, it is also a high-end entertainment venue, Zhanbai walked over with Lin Xuanlan, walked through the long corridor, and seemed to open a 'door' at random, inside, Jin Lian lazily hugged the cushions, sat on the snow-white leather sofa, ** her long hair.
"Jin Lianβ" Lin Xuanlan was busy greeting.
"Brother Lin is here, please take a seat!" West 'Gate' Jin Lian pointed to the sofa and smiled.
"Jin Lian, why are you 'making' so mysterious?" Lin Xuanlan saw the West 'Gate' Jin Lian, and suddenly. When he put his mind at ease, he couldn't figure out Zhanbai, but instinctively felt that this person seemed to be very mysterious and dangerous.
"Your 'female' friend, when she sees me, her eyes are about to erupt with fire." Xi'men Jin Lian smiled bitterly, "And your second uncle and aunt, I don't want to make any more news." β
When Lin Xuanlan heard this, she just smiled bitterly, yes, God knows what the second uncle is. What do you think, knowing the current crisis of the Lin family, he actually played such a hand.
Zhan Bai closed the 'door' of the room, sat down beside Jin Lian of the west 'door', opened the 'door' and asked: "Mr. Lin, please forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, isn't the old man in your family who can't transfer money today?" β
When Lin Xuanlan heard this, a hint of surprise flashed on her face, but she still nodded and said, "It's the second uncle!" β
"You've never thought about yourself?" Zhan Bai was a little surprised that he recognized him.
Lin Xuanlan sighed, consider? And what can he do? To put it mildly, without the Lin family, he is equivalent to nothing, it's not that he hasn't fought for it, but he just can't understand why the old man has always believed in the second uncle so much? On the surface, the old man seems to let him do many things, but in fact, he always makes the second uncle stare at him.
"Mr. Zhan, what exactly do you want to do?" Lin Xuanlan asked, "You asked me out, didn't you want to ask this question?" β
"That's the case-" Zhan Bai leaned back on the sofa and said with a smile, "I have made some money abroad over the years, but, to be honest, my money is a little shady, so I want to transfer to China and invest in some business." β
Lin Xuanlan was stunned for a moment, and then understood: "You want to do a jewelry business?" β
"Specifically, it's the jade business." Zhan Bai chuckled, "I have studied, there are naturally a lot of profitable businesses in China, but the most profitable is jade jewelry." More importantly, jadeite jewelry is not very popular abroad, but this is only the present, not the future - my goal is very simple, only to do jadeite business, and it is a high-end 'fine' route, to hit the international market. β
"You're dreaming!" Lin Xuanlan scoffed and pushed jadeite to the international market, which so many senior jewelry companies in China have not been able to do, let alone him?
"It's up to people to make things happen, so you have to try, right?" Zhan Bai chuckled.
West 'Gate' Jin Lian pursed his lips and smiled, this damn Zhanbai, what is he going to do, and to promote jade jewelry to the international market, what does he not say, will he promote it to the whole universe in the future?
"Okay, but what does this have to do with me?" Lin Xuanlan 'rubbed' his faintly aching head and asked.
He wants to do the jadeite jewelry business, just do it, what do you want him to do? Even if he wants to find a collaborator, there are too many jewelry companies in China, why is he just looking for him?
"Of course it does, because β I want to buy your Lin Jewelry Company." Zhan Bai smiled.
When Lin Xuanlan heard this, she stood up with a sudden swish, pointed at Zhan Bai and said, "What did you say?" β
"I said, I want to buy your Lin family!" Zhan Bai repeated what he had just said again.
"Why, who do you think you are?" Lin Xuanlan's voice suddenly increased by a few decibels.
"Don't be so agitated, okay?" Zhan Bai was still there, and he looked at the West 'Gate' Jin Lian and didn't say anything, so he continued, "You don't know the situation your Lin family is facing now, if there is no foreign capital injection, the Lin family will wait for the end." Are you waiting for your old man to 'hand' over the company to Lin Zheng and work for him, or are you willing to let Jin Lian buy the Lin family, you still have a few percent of the shares in your hands. β
"Golden Lotus?" Lin Xuanlan was stunned, could it be said that the acquisition of the Lin family was actually the intention of the West 'Gate' Jin Lian? No, no, no, as far as he knew about Ximen' Jinlian, she would never have thought of buying Lin's Jewelry Company.
"That's right, I'm just the one who pays for it, Jin Lian is the shareholder, without her gambling on stone to purchase raw materials, everything is for nothing, let alone doing jewelry and jade business, even if I really buy Lin's jewelry, I can only wait for a loss." Zhan Bai said with a smile, "You should know that in the jade jewelry business, the focus is not on sales, but on raw materials. β
Lin Xuanlan didn't speak, indeed, the focus of the jadeite jewelry business is on the convenience of raw materials, not sales, with the best jadeite in hand, there is never a need to worry about not being able to sell.
However, the raw material problem of jadeite is completely different from other imported raw materials, not you can buy it with money, you must have this certain talent gambling stone, and make a clear choice between the stubborn stone and the beautiful 'jade'.
And grandpa is gambling this time...... If grandpa didn't gamble on Myanmar this time, the Lin family would definitely not let people watch, and even moved the idea of acquisition.
He can almost guarantee now that even if Zhan Bai didn't have this idea, some of the remaining jewelry companies would definitely want to take the opportunity to swallow Lin's jewelry - this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and no one will dislike their money.
"We don't have to worry about raw materials!" Zhanbai stood up and walked in front of Lin Xuanlan, "However, we need sales, we need our own company." β
"We?" Lin Xuanlan suddenly felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart, and the "we" in Zhanbai's mouth naturally referred to him and the West Gate Jin Lian, and for a moment, he was upset and irritable, and asked bluntly, "What do you want to say?" Or rather, how do you want me to cooperate? β
"Yes, what we want is your words!" Zhanbai burst out laughing.
"Humph!" Lin Xuanlan couldn't help but snort.
"MoneyβI have it!" Zhan Bai chuckled, "The jade raw material Golden Lotus is there, but we are all masters who are not good at management - and you happen to be the kind of person who is good at dancing with long sleeves and is absolutely good at management." β
Lin Xuanlan sneered: "No matter how I listen to this, it seems like sarcasm. β
"I didn't sarcastically mock you, and I didn't 'force' you to make a decision now, I know more about your gentle 'nature', but--you can think for yourself, will you work for Lin Zheng in the future, or even be kicked out of the Lin family, or will you come out now and set up another 'door'?" Zhan Bai asked coldly.
Lin Xuanlan took a deep breath, looking at the West Gate Golden Lotus just lazily leaning on the sofa, like a lazy cat, I don't know why, his eyes fell on the half-open golden 'color' lotus 'flower' on the back of her hand, in this 'cloudy' rainy day, the golden lotus did not lose its 'color', but shone brightly.
In his life, he has never been so resolute and resolute, of course, this morning's incident also gave him too much blow, and he immediately nodded and said: "Okay, become a 'handover'!" But I want to know, what benefits can I have? β
"The benefits are simple!" Zhanbai walked up to him, "The shares you own now are still yours, and the shares in your father's hands will also be yours in the future, but-the shares of your grandfather and your second uncle, I will buy them, including the shares scattered outside your family......"
"I still hold 30 percent of the shares in the hands of the remaining relatives." Lin Xuanlan said suddenly, "You want to fully control the Lin jewelry company, it's not so easy, I budgeted, at least 1.5 billion is needed, do you have so much cash?" β
"At the mention of this, Lao Tzu was depressed, Lao Tzu is still the master of no money in the jewelry industry!" Zhan Bai shook his head and said, there are some things that can't be sold, and he can't 'draw' so much cash for a while.
"To buy scattered stocks outside, you need at least 300 million, if you don't even have such a little capital, I advise you to forget it, I don't want to cooperate with a person with empty gloves and white wolves, 'get' in the end, I'm not a person inside and out." For the first time in his life, Lin Xuanlan sarcastically sarcastically satirized a person, but deep in his heart, there was an inexplicable throbbing, which felt so good that he didn't have to wear a gentle mask and keep smiling.
"If I can't get 300 million in a row, how can I gain Jin Lian's trust?" Zhan Bai suddenly turned to the West 'Gate' Jin Lian and said.
Xi'men Jin Lian smiled bitterly, I've seen shameless, I've never seen him so shameless, when did she trust him? It's whether it's good for him to stay with his dead face.
"Jin Lian, I need a word from you!" Lin Xuanlan suddenly turned around, grabbed the shoulders of the West 'Gate' Jin Lian, and leaned into her ear, with hot air blowing on her face, "You must know that if I agree to cooperate with you, I will never retreat from now on, and once I fail, I will have nothing." β
"Life is the biggest gamble β we're all gambling!" Ximen' Jin Lian whispered softly, why wasn't she actually gambling?
Yes, even if you make a fortune gambling stones, so what? After all, she is a rural 'girl' with no foundation, who is rich and powerless and is bullied.
Wang Xiangqin can humiliate her three times and twice, which proves that she has no foundation - so building her own company is not just for money, it can also be said that it is a symbol......
"You shouldn't say you, but you should say - us!" Zhan Bai said, "When you enter this room, you will already be our thief ship. But I can put my heart in my stomach and we won't regret it. β
"Since the world has no regrets about the 'medicine', how can I regret it?" Lin Xuanlan sneered, "The big deal is to lose everything and have nothing, but it's better than the current situation!" β
"Good, good!" Zhanbai high-fived and praised, "I really didn't see the wrong person." β
The West 'Gate' Jin Lian was a little surprised, Lin Xuanlan would actually agree? When Zhanbai told her about this plan, she also laughed at Zhanbai for being crazy and whimsical - how can I say that Lin Xuanlan is the grandson of the Lin family, he wants to buy Lin's jewelry company, and he will actually help them? Is this possible?
But Zhanbai repeatedly assured her that the success rate was definitely 90% - it turned out that Zhanbai really succeeded in lobbying Lin Xuanlan to their side.
"Lin Dashao, your family's business has been good over the years, how can it not 'get' the overstretched situation now, what is the reason for your family's financial problems." Zhan Bai asked.
"Life is a huge gamble - my grandfather gambled not only on stones, but also on the money." Lin Xuanlan suddenly laughed out loud, this is the secret of the Lin family, outsiders don't know a word, but now, he said it so openly, holding back a breath of resentment in his heart, and finally relieved a lot.
"What did you say?" West Gate Jin Lian asked with some surprise, "Lin ...... Old man Lin also gambles money? β
Lin Xuanlan nodded, many people are inconsistent, if it weren't for that time when grandpa lost too hard, it wouldn't have caused the Lin family's capital turnover difficulties.
No! Even if Old Man Lin didn't gamble this time, even if it was flat and didn't rise, he wouldn't end up like this......
"I admire that old man Lin a little, it's good, it's very 'sex'!" Zhan Bai smiled, "I wondered, how could you ...... your second uncle's virtue?" How to say good? A phoenix comes out of the old eagle's nest? β
"Shut up!" When Lin Xuanlan heard this, she scolded, "What do you think you are a good thing?" β
"Am I not complimenting you?" Zhan Bai said with a dry smile.
"Okay, I'm too lazy to say anything more to you, tell me about your specific plans!" Lin Xuanlan snorted.
Zhanbai nodded, didn't change the laughing state just now, took out the computer, and after starting it, his fingers quickly clicked on the keyboard a few times, and then sent it to Lin Xuanlan.
Lin Xuanlan looked at it, and after about fifteen minutes, she nodded: "It should workβwhen do you start?" β
"Back to the Demon Capital!" Zhan Bai Dao.
βkοΌβ Lin Xuanlan stood up and said, "I'll invite Jin Lian to dinner at noon today, don't come with me, I don't want to date a 'female' friend, there is always an electric light by my side!" β
Xi'men Jin Lian was dumbfounded, what is going on? When did she become his 'female' friend?
And Lin Xuanlan had already turned around and walked to the 'door', opened the 'door' and walked out. Zhanbai 'touched' his nose and said with a wry smile: "This guy actually has a 'sex' ...... too"
"Didn't you say he was indecisive?" Xi'men Jin Lian** had long hair and chuckled, "I didn't expect that he would really agree." β
"Jin Lian, this guy is different!" Zhan Bai shook his head and said, "That being said, we still have to guard against him, the more gentle and gentle people are, God knows how many crooked intestines there are in the stomach." β
The West 'Gate' Jin Lian just smiled, she could see clearly the jade hidden in the stubborn stone, but she didn't know the human mind under the skin......
Involuntarily, she remembered the small mountain village where she was born, the whole village seemed so simple, perhaps, there would be less conflicts of interest, and people's hearts would not be so complicated.
"Jieyang Jade is in trouble, you accompany me back!" West 'Gate' Jin Lian said in a low voice.
"Go back?" Zhanbai raised his eyebrows, "What to do?" "Doesn't she have no relatives in her hometown?
"I want to go back to the graves of 'Milk', 'Milk' and Teacher, and donate some money to build that road...... "West Gate" Jin Lian sighed softly, "I didn't have money before, I couldn't do anything!" And that's all I can do now. β
"Good!" Zhan Bai didn't say anything, as long as she was happy.
At noon, Lin Xuanlan wanted to have dinner alone with the West Gate Jin Lian, but this plan was still soup, so Qin Hao actually came to Jieyang.
After discussing it in the end, Qin Hao asked for a separate private room in a nearby restaurant, and was ready to eat a local special.
Qin Hao was very curious, the West 'Gate' Jin Lian and Zhan Bai were together, but he expected it, but Lin Xuanlan actually didn't give Lu Feiyu **, which really didn't fit his 'sex' personality.
During the banquet, Qin Hao deliberately asked, "Lin Dashao, what about Concubine Yu?" β
"I broke up with her!" Lin Xuanlan laughed and said lightly.
"Points...... Broke up? "Qin Hao almost sprayed vegetables on the spot, how is this possible?" Lin Dashao, what are you kidding? You broke up with Concubine Yu? β
"Yes, we've broken up!" Lin Xuanlan is 'coloring'.
"Give me a reason, okay?" Qin Hao frowned and said, Okay, why did he break up with Lu Feiyu, and since he broke up with Lu Feiyu, does it mean that the relationship between the Lin family and the Lu family has also come to an end? But what he heard was another version, the Lin family had already hired the Lu family, and they were ready to organize the wedding.
"Do you need a reason to break up?" Lin Xuanlan learned a line commonly used in TV dramas now, a serious way.
"That's not what you Lin Dashao said." As Qin Hao spoke, he couldn't help but look at the West Gate Golden Lotus.
"I just don't want a mistake to continue." Lin Xuanlan said, since you don't love it, why do you want to be reluctant? Without him Lin Xuanlan, where would Lu Feiyu find a good man to marry?
