Wu Zhong's two cars sped away, gradually disappearing at the corner of the mountain road of Qinglong Mountain.
The three clerks of the car repair shop couldn't wait to watch the two checks with a denomination of 500,000 yuan each in Ang Lee's hand.
"Brother Li, your actions just now are simply very happy... But the chair is also quite heavy, this, you are tired, or I will help you hold these two tickets for the time being..." Ding Xiaobu looked at Li An with an innocent and cute face.
"Tsk, it is worthy of being a person who works in the Lin Manor, he is simple and decisive, and he has some style." Benjamin's dim eyes stared at Ang Lee, revealing a hint of approval.
"That lawyer, I know, is called Edward, and he is good at defending high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen, and many people have been exonerated because of this... It's a guy with a very bad reputation in Shinport! I hadn't seen it before, but I didn't expect it... The mouth is really very disgusting. Ma Gaixian's attention was not on the check at all like Ding Xiaobu, but he was very disdainful of his flattery, and the literary and artistic youth did not seem to show that he regarded money as dung, so he could not show his high level, but then again, every time he asked the beautiful proprietress to borrow money, the flattering low posture was not ambiguous at all.
"Actually, when I lifted the chair just now, what I wanted to smash the most was Wu Zhong." Li An smiled awkwardly and shook the check in his hand, "It's just for this thing, and you won't lose anything if you endure it." I believe that writing these two checks will hurt their hearts more than cutting them twice! "
Li An is not without anger, when he saw his sister being bullied, he didn't want to rush forward like Lin Hai to go crazy. However, at that time, it was for the sake of Lin Hai's reputation in the family that he had to try to suppress the matter as much as possible and avoid expansion. Just facing the sharp-toothed lawyer Edward next to Wu Zhong, Li An finally couldn't hold back the anger in his chest, and blamed the other party's luck for being a little too bad... It just crashed into his crater.
Ang Lee is indeed a small person, and a small person who is sometimes weaker. But this does not mean that the little people are not angry, coupled with Lin Hai's unexpected shocking change at the annual meeting, Li Anxin has some unknown motivation that has been sleeping, and he has also been awakened.
Just like just now, in the past, Li An could not have imagined that he would ask for compensation without giving an inch to him in front of someone like Wu Zhong. Under the stagnation of that atmosphere, he almost collapsed first, how can it be so easy to pretend to be calm, but thanks to that lawyer's bad luck, he intervened at this time, so that Li An happened to find an opportunity to vent his imminent collapse.
Ang Lee felt that he was either motivated or insane.
But now he prefers to believe the former. Because he did get a check for one million paid by Wu Zhong in this way. However, 100% of this million is Wu Zhong's fear of a speaker's family, and he has nothing to do with him Li An.
In the face of all this, Ang Lee felt that he was about to collapse, which was even more tiring than a real fight.
Li Qingdong on the side looked at him with shallow eyes, and said a little calmly, "Now I believe that my brother is really getting more and more amazing...
Li An wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled gently as relieved, and then handed the two checks in his hand to Li Qingdong.
"What... What do you mean... Think? Ding Xiaobu's face was at an exaggerated angle at that time, looking at this action.
Benjamin's mouth opened slightly, Ma Gaixian's eyes stared at the check, and then at the beautiful proprietress again, and he was stunned for a moment by Ang Lee's action-rich information.
Li Qingdong stood up, facing the two sheets of paper with stamps and the amount in front of him, his eyes trembling slightly. I didn't understand what Ang Lee meant for a while, or I expected it, so my heart shook violently at this time.
"Didn't you always want to open a repair company... This is your dream of being a girl and supporting a car repair shop here... That's enough money. The most important ..."
Li An smiled, "This is also what Lin Hai meant..."
"This million is for you."
...
Lin Hai, who was far away in Huanxing District 2, received a call from Li Ang again.
On the phone, when it was learned that the million was given to Li Qingdong, the entire car repair shop held an emergency meeting temporarily. It is said that there was a lot of noise at the meeting, and Ding Xiaobu used his mind to think about how to use the million. And Benjamin dreamed of buying a hundred basses in his new company's office. Benjamin thought that he could finally smoke and drink well and raise his salary.
But the real proprietress Li Qingdong resolutely opposed accepting this huge amount of money, and almost broke the dream of the three guys. In the end, it was under the mediation and persuasion of Li An that Li Qingdong agreed to accept the money, on the condition that Lin Hai would own 70% of the shares of the new maintenance company to be established in the future.
"It doesn't matter." Hearing this, Lin Hai on the other end of the phone smiled.
The most important reason why Wu Zhong was willing to pay this money to redeem the luxury car was that he hoped to turn Lin Hai into a friend from enemy, and even hoped that he would have the opportunity to gain the possibility of cooperation after Lin Hai and his family achieved a certain status in the future.
I believe that this money is enough to impress Lin Hai.
Of course, Lin Hai knows what the concept of one million is, for him who was born in the slums, this is a huge amount of money, even if he returns to Wayne Company now, but the money that is sent to Li An every month as Lin Hai's daily expenses will take at least a few decades to have a million such amounts.
In the slums, profit is the source of all struggles, Lin Hai understands the importance of money better than anyone else, and in the garbage star, the white bones poured under this kind of thing can be piled up into garbage peaks. But now Lin Hai is on the riverside, and by his side, there are people who need this money more than him.
For example, Li Qingdong, the younger sister Li Qingdong that Ang Lee has always been worried about. The brother and sister have no parents and can only rely on each other for their lives. And Li Qingdong is even more for the goal in his heart, not hesitating a girl to support a car repair shop, no matter how tired he is. Lin Hai is very lonely in Riverside Star and has few friends, and Li An is counted as one. For people who can be trusted, Lin Hai has never cared about paying.
This money is not of great use in his hands, but here in Li Qingdong, he can help her realize her long-term dream.
For Lin Hai, his dream of treating his mother also disappeared with her death. So he felt that he had no regrets about being able to help the two brothers and sisters.
"Qingdong hopes to have time to thank you in front of you in person."
"No thanks... I enjoyed her cooking, next time I have the chance, I can eat it again..."
Ang Lee smiled dumbly.
Finally, he lit a cigarette, leaned against the exterior wall of the garage, looked at the clear sky overhead, and finally said the most hypocritical sentence ever to the other end of the phone, "That... Thank you. "
After a long silence, a voice finally came from the other end of the phone that relieved his heart, "We're friends... So, no thanks. "
...
I hung up the phone, and the smoke from my lungs lingered and stirred in my chest with the beating of my heart...
When he Li An went to Wayne Company to apply for a job, didn't he just hope to have a good future? In the final analysis, it is still selfish for their own interests. When he was assigned to the Lin manor as a housekeeper in the secretarial department, when he met Lin Hai, he was not discouraged about his future because he suspected that he had followed the wrong boss.
And after that, a large part of the reason for getting along with Lin Hai is also because he is also his own boss, so sometimes he will deliberately get closer to him, and he will always get along with the normal state, and he is always very far away. Moreover, in his heart, he couldn't put Lin Hai in the position of a real friend.
This is not to blame him, in this materialistic society, everyone is running desperately forward, and they can't stop at all, because once they slack off and stay in place like a panicked bird, they have been washed downstream by the tide of the times, facing the danger of being eliminated. In this interstellar age of rapid development and change, many people cannot breathe freely and have nowhere to stay and rest.
Even the gatherings of former friends are much less active and more taciturn. In the past, because of the pressure and burden, friends would forget to shake hands when they met, move forward on their own life tracks, and pass by in a hurry. The young and energetic faces in the academy are destined to only be alive in the fragments of time, and gradually grow old in the irreversible flow of time.
Those who used to be heartbeats will forget what kind of face was the heartbeat at that time many years later.
Sometimes it's just a sudden and overwhelming burst of tears, and you have no idea what you've lost.
As for the word "friend". Many times it is just a rhetoric that pulls over relationships, but in fact, people gradually alienate them in their hearts and bury them forever.
He Li An has been like this for a long time, and his emotions are so complicated because of a phone call.
It is precisely because of knowing Lin Hai's experience, knowing the many unbearable past events he experienced in Junk Star, knowing his clumsiness and suffering, and the price he paid for survival, that he understands that for such a person, being able to make such a sacrifice for a small dream of his brother and sister means that he Li An is not a symbol in Lin Hai's eyes, but is really placed in a very important position.
I don't know why, as a big man, my eyes are a little moist at this moment...
Is it because of that "friend"?
Inside the gate of Eik's underground space number 04, David said that the mecha that appeared was called "Gondora".
Lin Hai had to admit that the name of the mecha and the appearance of Gumu complemented each other.
Gondora is the name of a warrior in the ancient epic of Bama, who fought bravely and resolutely, faced countless powerful enemies alone, and was assassinated by traitors who were bribed by the enemy, thus achieving his tragic heroic deeds.
When he saw the mecha in the underground space with the opera sound of "The Night Sky Milky Way Hangs", Lin Hai admitted that there was an indescribable sense of solemn impact in his heart at that time.
The solemn mood should be very quiet, but it carries the impact under the opera, as if this mecha could move at any time, with an invincible force, to destroy everything.
It was the first time Lin Hai had seen and touched such a mecha at such a close distance. It's his old-fashioned garbage cleanup mecha in the garbage star, and there is no way to compare the beauty at all.
When he passed the mecha self-inspection, entered the cockpit, and looked at the dense electronic equipment of the mecha in a silent state, even he didn't know what kind of algebraic level this mecha had reached.
Just thinking about the jerky feel of operating this mech in the immersive cabin, this kind of mecha seems to be intended for people with extremely high speed reaction speed. Because there are a lot of electronically assisted functions, but this can also make the control of the mecha more refined, and even do a lot of actions that cannot be done under the intervention of the computer.
Lin Hai had a hunch that the design function of this mecha was not trivial.
In any case, there was this Gondora, hidden behind the No. 04 gate of Jiang Lao's underground space, which still made Lin Hai's heart turbulent, quite shocking.
The inside of Gate 04 is actually quite large. In addition to the mecha that was parked more than five meters away, there was also a van truck in the back.
Open the exit on the other side of Gate 04, the location of which is the exit on the other side of the hill where the villa is located.
The location of the exit is a very secluded forest park, only a road that rarely passes by cars lies outside the door, I am afraid that the vehicles passing by here will only think that this gate is the warehouse of the family on the mountain, and I can't imagine that behind the heavy iron gate, there is such a mecha hidden and such a huge internal space.
Occasionally, when some vehicles passed by the soon-to-be-abandoned branch road in the second area of the star, crushing the countless dead leaves on the ground, Lin Hai stood in the shade of the trees, turned his head, and looked at the mountain made of rocks inlaid with the gate. If he hadn't come from there, how could he have known from the outside that the mountain below Jiang Zhi's villa was actually a huge space, almost hollowing out this rocky hill.
What's the secret of that mech? Who is Jiang Zhi, and why the more in-depth the contact, the more Lin Hai feels that his unfathomable depth.
It's a pity that Jiang Zhi is away on the road now, and Lin Hai can't ask him in person to answer these doubts.
The morning star dimmed with the dusk, and the lights of the manor and some nearby towns were faintly lit up.
In recent days, with the frequent activities of air thieves in the New South Star region, the troubles brought to the Riverside Xinglin family have become increasingly apparent.
Lin Wei's study was brightly lit, and it was a long family meeting in the manor.
...
Lin Hai was allowed to attend for the first time, you must know that in the past, he would be like an outsider, he would not go, and no one asked him to attend.
Now that he has been named by Lin Wei to be present, it is obvious that because of his admission to Qingyuan Academy, he has gained considerable status and respect in the family.
Now that he is present, some elders of the family, senior elders of the company, and family members of the board of directors will not chew on the root of his tongue that is not rightly named and does not speak well. At most, he always had doubts about his admission to Qingyuan College.
Under the current overall situation of air thieves harassing Xinnanxing, they still understand the truth that they need to be a little more restrained.
"New South Star's industrial base is our most important raw material source at present, and if the supply contract with the Tennessee family is terminated in the next year, we will need to rely on New South Star's output to tide over the difficulties. At this critical juncture... These damn air thieves are trying to make trouble! I've protested the inefficiency of the Planetary Guards, they're just draining our taxpayers' money and doing nothing, you Imperial idiots! An elder named Lin Xi slapped the table and scolded angrily.
"The New South Star Industrial Base has our Wayne Corporation security department in operation, and the contemptible can guarantee safety! Those air thieves won't dare to come to disturb them easily! An executive director in charge of security at the company said.
Lin Jiang held a data book in his hand, and his expression was solemn and grim like never before, "Now is not a question of discussing the failure of the planetary defense department, and whether our security department can confront those professional bandits. The seriousness of the matter now must not be clear to everyone here. I have a confidential document in my hand. I learned it from my channels on the black market! "
The information in Lin Jiang's hand was placed on the table, and was picked up by a fat director next to him, Lin Jiang continued, "This information shows that some air thieves in the chaos area of the New South Star are likely to have made some big moves recently through the instructions of some big names in the black market, and as far as I know, some of the actions are coming at our Lin family!" "
As soon as this statement came out. There was an uproar.
Everyone present in Lin Wei's study suddenly panicked, and it was obviously difficult to sit still.
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
"Lin Jiang, are you kidding?"
"Accurate sources of information?"
Among the people present, some were members of the board of directors of Wayne Company, and some were relatives of the family, with aristocratic blood. It is all the existence of the Lin family that has the right to speak. But at this moment, this group of people collectively has no master.
They are well aware of the horror of the existence of air thieves. Although Wayne Corporation has repeatedly claimed the presence of security services at the New South Star Base, it will not be afraid of the nuisance of air thieves. But that's limited to nuisance. The firepower of the aristocracy, a private security company, was still limited by the laws of the empire, and there were always limitations. There is still a huge gap between it and the kind of air thief who is equipped with heavy firepower, has a killing mecha, is ruthless, and treats human life like a grass.
In terms of morale, the people in the security department of Wayne Corporation are some retired military personnel, or from specialized colleges, and most of them have families. The Sky Thieves are a group of outlaws abandoned by mainstream society, and they may not dare to confront the regular army of the Empire, but if a terrorist attack is launched against someone, it is still not something that an aristocratic family can withstand in the industrial base on the edge of New South Star.
The air thief is the sea wolf in the universe, and everyone knows that in the eyes of these people, whether you are a nobleman or a rich man who spends a lot of money, you are just a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered in silence.
So how could everyone present not talk about the color change.
I saw that many family company veterans present turned their eyes and expectations to their side to solve the problem. Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan, after all, felt that the information in their hands was still very intimidating, and it did play a great role, that is, it seemed that many people present now were expecting him Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan to have a way to keep the family away from this crisis.
This made Lin Jiang look at Lin Wei and Lin Wei with a hint of happiness in his heart, which meant that even after experiencing Lin Hai's unexpected variables and dark horses at the annual meeting, everyone began to change their views on Lin Wei's lineage, but his Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan's high-level influence within the family still had a lot of weight.
Through this invasion of air thieves, as long as they operate it well, it is also an excellent opportunity for them to further weaken the prestige of Lin Wei and his adopted daughter and increase their voice within the company and family.
You must know that most of the people on the board of directors of the company present now are panicked because of his material, obviously in terms of obtaining information, he and Lin Jiang are much smarter than Lin Wei, who is currently the head of the family.
Many people will naturally break out in a cold sweat when they react to this, if such a thing is not noticed by Lin Wei in advance, then when the air thieves attack the New South Star Industrial Base, then the loss to the Lin family will be annihilated!
As long as the people present can think of this, or think in this direction, their purpose will be achieved, because then these family elders will naturally think about whether Lin Wei still has the ability to continue to be the head of the family? Is it time to choose another candidate?
At this time, Lin Jiang, Lin Yuanshan, who led the Riverside Xinglin family and Wayne Company out of the predicament, will naturally be the best choice for the next head of the family.
In addition, after a bit of intimidation and deterrence, the family members were panicked, and they could only pin their hopes on Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan, and at the same time, they would create some momentum for themselves and create an image of the pillar of the family in times of crisis, so the back and forth of this air thief turmoil will naturally gain more hearts and support for them in the family and the company.
At that time, everyone will see the two uncles who are not outstanding in front of the family, but who have shown a strong ability to stabilize the situation and calm people's hearts in times of crisis, running for the fate of the family, turning the tide, and finally reducing the air thief turmoil through various ways, allowing the family to tide over the crisis and reunite internally.
This should be the best script. If you don't make good use of this air thief turmoil in the New South Star Region, if you want to overpower Lin Wei, you don't know that it will be the Year of the Monkey!
And directing all this according to the script is Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan's forte!
After so many years, both of them are superb acting schools and incendiary orators. In addition to Lin Wei, the prestige and popularity of Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan have been on the rise in recent years after attending various activities.
As for the information on the infestation of air thieves from the black market channel, it was naturally just a trick and trick played by Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan.
Those air thieves? They scoff in their hearts, they can be said to be wolves and outlaws in space, but just looking at these guys who only dare to harass cargo ships far away on the waterway, and don't dare to get too close to the borders of the empire, they know that the so-called air thief infestation is just a threat theory hyped up by the boring media of the empire for news value, a national carnival in which the people of the empire experience a sense of crisis.
Don't you see that even if the air thieves are violently active, the Empire's patrol fleet cares about the appearance of being in good time, how can this group of wild wolves who are hunting outside really dare to cross the starline and invade the New South Star under the nose of the fleet?
In the midst of this family meeting about the crisis of the air thieves. Lin Hao, Lin Delun, Lin Ke and other family heirs were also present. But they, like Lin Hai, were silent. On such occasions, they have no right to speak at all, they can only quietly listen to the discussion within the family, and the elders let them observe, in fact, to let them participate in the family meeting, to understand the elders' thinking, the way to solve the problem, the entry point, and the analysis of the situation. This needs to be cultivated at the time of sensibility, so that they can learn the experience and thinking method of solving family problems after the old and the new are replaced in the future.
After all, the Xinglin family on the riverside, the huge aristocratic family, and the Venn Industrial Group, are not just one or two people who can decide many things by patting their heads.
Lin Hao has listened to many such family internal meetings since he was a child. Most of them, like some relatives and nephews who also observed, were sleepy about Gujing Bubo's meeting, which seemed to be a more difficult situation than being locked up at home and not allowed to go out.
In this regard, the two cousins, Lindrun and Link, who were the polar opposites of him, were very interested in the spirit of this kind of meeting, and it seemed that as long as they were present, even if they had no right to speak, their eyes would sparkle with excitement.
This is probably due to the diametrically opposite of Lin Hao and their personalities. The two are extremely keen on power, and have a strong desire to express and dominate. Every time he saw them, Lin Hao seemed to be able to see the ambition in the eyes of the two of them who wanted to take the inheritance of the head of the family in their own hands and then be respected by the whole family and the whole company.
Lin Hao knew that he and they were two types of people, and knew that Uncle Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan were secretly operating to attack their father's lineage. But Lin Hao didn't have too much anger about this, he knew that he was not the material at the helm, but his sister, who would defend him since he was a child and was extremely smart, was able to compete with Uncle Lin Jiang and them. And then like the wise queen defeating her uncles who tried to usurp power, she finally won. She will triumph as a queen.
But now... Lin Hao felt that this family meeting had a solemnity that was different from all previous family meetings.
Although he didn't know about the air thieves, the New South Star Industrial Base of Wayne Company, the broad chain of interests and tentacles of these families, he always had a sense of immediacy about the major events in those families and companies, as if they had nothing to do with him, these were all the things of his father, sister, and even the company family who seemed to be scheming and calculating at a glance.
He doesn't have the ability or interest to know about the development of big and wide companies, crises and so on.
However, now Lin Hao did not have the drowsiness of participating in the previous family meetings, but under the heartfelt panic of the people around him, he felt that this time, it seemed that the problem was really serious. It may even threaten the life and death of the Xinglin family on the riverside.
...
"We can contact the Planetary Defense Agency immediately and tell them about it, hoping to bring the incident under control." A family elder spoke.
"It's useless!" A company veteran sighed, "It's not that you don't know about the Planetary Defense Agency, the source of this information comes from the black market, and it is only a possible inference, the information flowing out of the black market will not be recognized by those people in the Planetary Defense Agency." Counting on the Planetary Defense Agency, which has always been remedied only in an accident, I am afraid that our industrial base will have already become a sea of fire. "
"So what to do, then only we can strengthen the security work..."
"There are strict restrictions in this regard, and it is difficult for us to get heavy weapons to increase our protective strength, not to mention that we are the Speaker of the Riverside Star Council, and we are also one of the members of the Star District Council, there are too many people waiting to contain and pinch our sore feet in this regard! And I doubt that the air thief thing will be someone who is making trouble! ..."
Seeing that these family elders were frightened, the corners of Lin Yuanshan and Lin Jiang's mouths were already slightly upturned. Coldly watching the changes in the expressions of everyone in the family, they felt that this move was very correct, and what could make a cohesive family more panicked than a crisis.
What could be easier than turning the tide in times of crisis, and reshuffling the cards to shape a principal that people can trust and rely on.
At that time, I am afraid that in front of the elders inside and outside the family and the elders of the company's board of directors, a new head of the family and a new candidate for the chairman of the Wayne Group will be called.
In this way, he obtained the position of head of the family. Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan felt that the crisis of the air thieves was really appropriate at this time.
However, just when the two of them decided that the situation would develop in the direction they directed, Lin Wei, who had been frowning without any doubts, finally spoke, "Originally, we thought that we were the first to know about this matter, but we didn't expect Lin Yuanshan and Uncle Lin Jiang to know about it through their own channels..."
Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan glanced at each other, and the first thing that came to mind was that Lin Wei was remedying for their lack of information in time, so he said coldly, "What you know, niece, I'm afraid it's not all, this time the air thief force is menacing, and it has been planned for a long time... It's another hail when the cold winter of our Wayne Group comes. Uncle Yuanshan and I can only think of another way, can we resolve this crisis through many methods. Of course, within the Wayne Group, within our family, the first thing we need is unity and cohesion, and we can't do things that harm the future interests of the family for our own selfishness at this time! "
This is a bit insinuating, and it is just right.
According to Lin Yuanshan, in the eyes of the rest of the family, Lin Wei originally had a sense of peacekeeping power for outsiders to interfere in family affairs, but now she feels that this woman has a strong desire to control, and even has no ambition to seize the family business in her heart... God knows!
Under the mention of Lin Yuanshan's words, everyone looked at Lin Wei's gaze again, and it changed a little. felt that Lin Wei had not forgotten to maintain her strength in such a critical situation, and was still guarding against the rise of Lin Yuanshan and Lin Jiang, this is ignorance!
Fourth Uncle Lynch finally couldn't look at it, he carried a gun and a stick, and said in a sneering tone, "Lord Earl, and Lin Wei's niece, forgive me for interjecting here." In advance, over the years, your niece has been gifted and intelligent, and your contribution to the Wayne Group is obvious to all. Even if you are not the real bloodline of the Lin family, in the final analysis, we uncles treat you as our niece... But you're a female streamer after all. You always have to get married, and sometimes, you should retreat behind the scenes and hide your edge. Wayne's company, as well as so many of our uncles and nephews, can still bear the pressure from the outside world, can't be said by people outside, we need a female streamer to support us, right? "
Fourth Uncle Lynch opened this mouth, some of the high-ranking officials and elders who had long been wary of Lin Wei and some concerns, were usually pressed by Lin Wei, and they did not dare to have any dissatisfaction under her strength, but now that there are people with a high status taking the lead, they are also vying to echo it.
"yes... Lin Wei's niece has always taken the lead, which is not a good thing for our Wayne company's reputation outside! "
"And, niece Lin Wei, you have to marry an outsider after all... Haha, I'm not talking about your background, we've always treated you as our niece! ..."
When the Wayne Group was thriving, everyone naturally didn't dare to make irresponsible remarks about Lin Wei, who was in the limelight. Now that the company is facing a trough, Lin Wei's former strength and prestige have also declined, and now many people's awe of Lin Wei has also decreased a lot.
Seeing these echoing voices, Lin Hao was furious when he heard it, and he clenched his fists tightly, eager to punch the faces of those smiling elders a few times.
But he knew that in this kind of family meeting, he couldn't do anything, otherwise he would be even more ashamed of his father's lineage, and this was the scene that Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan couldn't wait to see. The crushing and confrontation within the aristocratic family is sometimes not much smaller than the bloody storm in the outside world.
So Lin Wei could only face these soft knives stabbed from all directions alone. Often those words like "say it in advance, we don't care about your life experience, we have always treated you as a niece...", such a deep-rooted blood division, and such words that think that she Lin Wei is an outsider in my heart are the most hurtful.
Lin Wei felt a little breathless all of a sudden, as if many knives were stabbing her heart.
In the face of the words of those smiling elders with guns and sticks, Lin Wei only felt a pain in her heart, feeling that she had been trying to change for many years, and had been trying to prove that she was a member of this family, as if it had been torn apart meaninglessly... So you have to take the last step...
Her beautiful eyes turned red instantly, and tears swirled in her eyes, but her strength still didn't let it fall.
She clenched her fists in private, the tip of her nose was slightly red, and then she heard her voice sounding as if it was ridiculous, "... Who said I was going to marry someone else? "
Her reddened eyes squinted at everyone proudly, and at this moment, everyone was silent.
"It's ... What do you mean? "
Everyone couldn't tell whether she was angry or the truth that she had revealed for a while. Even Earl Lin Wei frowned lightly at this moment, looking at Lin Wei, and was about to interrupt her.
But she had already spoken, her jaw flirtatious, a repetition of the phrase, "Who said that... I'm going to get married? "
This sentence, like a queen, is mocking those doubts and fighting back against all those who doubt.
Don't get married... Could it be...
At this moment, everyone looked at one person in unison - Lin Hao.
Lin Hao was also at this moment, facing the strange and shocked eyes of the elders, and facing the extremely jealous eyes of Link and Lin Delun. I felt that my heart stopped at this moment, and in the face of Lin Wei's crystal and sharp eyes, it seemed that I was about to pause for eternity.
Could it be that she chose Lin Hao...
Sure enough, it was Lin Hao...
Lin Wei, the old fox, is arranged like this...
At the same time, many people's hearts are floating with such dirty ideas that were once buried and suspicious, and now they have finally been confirmed.
In such an extremely stagnant moment, the tenacity in Lin Wei's eyes finally collapsed when facing Lin Hao, she shook her head gently, "It's still too familiar...
Then his gaze directly crossed Lin Hao and landed on the ... standing behind him That has always been innocent Lin Hai.
Immediately after Lin Wei stretched out his hand, Ruyu's fingers were so far in the air, like a leap across the distance of time and space, giving the coordinates of everyone present, pointing to Lin Hai.
Then it sounded, her voice with stubbornness, arrogance and unwillingness, "... I'll marry him! "
With this voice, her eyes quickly dimmed gray, as if she was in her heart... A door was shut.
I saw the expressions of the people around me who suddenly collapsed, I saw those big mouths that opened like goose eggs, and I saw those stunned and full of envy, jealousy and hatred...
Lin Hai only felt an inexplicable absurdity rushing up his spine to his head, "Damn, I am ... Getting shot while lying down? "
At that moment, Lin Hao's head felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and he had a feeling of fainting. His fists were clenched tightly, and his eyes looked at Lin Hai with some red eyes, how could he not accept it, what Lin Wei said, she ... To marry the illegitimate son of this family, who has no weight and an unknown origin!?
Link and Lin Delun, two cousins, their expressions are also changing, for Lin Wei, although they regard her as an enemy because of their different positions, and have the fear accumulated by watching this girl become stronger, it is undeniable that from the bottom of their hearts, they certainly admit her excellence. Otherwise, I won't worry about the future of family business, and I can't fight this powerful woman. And now when they saw Lin Wei's words, the two of them were stunned for the first time, and then looked at Lin Wei, and they even had a faint sense of sympathy and jealousy for Lin Hai.
For Lin Wei, from a long time ago, she understood the fact that she was not born to Earl Lin Wei. At that time she was terrified, she was uneasy, she was suspicious, she was afraid...
Because since she was a child, the earl's love for her has never been much less than that of Lin Hao... Even more.
For Lin Hao, Earl Lin Wei was dignified, and he was often beaten and scolded, so that he didn't dare to make any mistakes in the manor. However, for Lin Wei, he has always had a loving and gentle expression, Lin Hao has never been in contact with the kind fatherly love, but in Lin Wei, it is unreservedly given, what she sees the most is Lin Wei's smile, like the comfort of the sun on his body, and like the warmth of a thick duvet wrapping her.
She even wondered if her father, who was so strict in the face of Lin Hao, and her father when she faced herself, were two same people.
Lin Wei also bullied Lin Hao with this, which caused him to become timid and timid in front of Lin Wei for a while, not daring to anger this sister who was extremely loved by his father, and he didn't dare to raise his head too high in front of her, and followed her arrogantly like a fart, allowing her to dictate to him.
I remember once when I was very young, Lin Wei broke a pair of antique tea sets that the Earl treasured on the treasure shelf. At that time, she was so frightened that she cried, because Lin Hao, who also damaged Lin Wei's treasure, was once kicked and beaten severely, and then knelt on the lawn in the backyard for two hours.
She thinks she'll face the Count's wrath as well. Who knew that Lin Wei just watched all this, and asked the housekeeper Donnahai to silently clean the debris on the ground, and then carefully helped her up, and personally opened the medical box to deal with the sharp cut knee of the debris for her. And told her in her usual gentle voice not to cry, it's okay, be careful next time.
At that time, Lin Wei was pampered and cared for, and even thought that she was superior to Lin Hao, and even doubted whether Lin Hao was born to the earl.
Until one day she was sensible, and she overheard the servant in her casual words, revealing the fact that she was only Lin Wei's adopted daughter.
On the day she learned of this identity, Lin Wei was swallowed by a huge empty black hole, and felt that everything had changed before, she was pampered in the family, and her life like a princess in the manor suddenly became unreal. She began to be afraid, began to fear losing the respect of the people of the manor, losing the favor of the earl, and losing the warm care of Ning Qing's mother. Because she has no blood, it is impossible for her to get such a favor, she should be like Lin Hao, who was treated by the earl with dignity.
However, Earl Lin Wei and his wife Ning Qing were still as gentle and accommodating to her as ever.
From that moment on, Lin Wei seemed to have grown up in an instant from a girl with a princess illness.
She began to get better and better, she began to rank among the best in the schools in the same area, and under the aura of countless people, she entered Qingyuan Academy with great pride, only in the second year of the academy, she studied in the management class, and then began to help the sick Earl share the affairs of the Wayne Group.
In just two years, she has shown an extraordinary talent for learning and management. She is not only strong in management, but also in the college of mechanical design, Wayne now in the design technology, one-third of the contribution from Lin Wei's design drawings.
If it weren't for this, Lin Wei would not have been recognized by the elders of the family, and was even more regarded as an obstacle by Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan, the two viscounts of the family who had other thoughts.
And no one knows that Lin Wei's only purpose to make herself excellent is to be afraid that one day, she will be swept out of this family. Afraid that one day, if you are not recognized by the family, you will lose the trust and warmth given by the earl's father.
In fact, many times, she is very envious of her younger brother Lin Hao. Because no matter how enterprising Lin Hao is, how he likes to work hard, he is a person with Lin family blood, and he is the first heir to inherit Lin Wei's family business. He didn't worry about being excluded from this family at all, he could even quarrel with the earl, and he could run away from home in a fit of rage, but in the end, the kind of blood in his blood made him destined to be the heir of the Xinglin family on the riverside.
And what about her Lin Wei? If she runs away from home, where else can she go...?
She has nothing but this family, but this family.
It is the disgust of her adopted daughter's identity, and it is the desperate desire to prove it to everyone that she has grown up in the Lin family since she was a child, has excellent traditions and inherited good morals, she is a member of this family, from the very beginning, she is not an outsider.
She hopes that with her own efforts, she will break the stereotypes against her within the family and make the family trust her and rely on her. The gap that made her not have the blood of the Lin family was gradually erased and disappeared without a trace.
But she was wrong.
She is too idealistic, and forgets the suspicion and defense between people, which is far more cruel than the happy ending of a fairy tale.
Especially the aristocratic families involved in their respective interests. Of course, she will not be so naïve and naïve, she originally thought that tying everyone's interests to her chariot would make all aspects of the family dependent on her, she could lead the better development of Wayne Company, and she could bring rich benefits to the members of the family as directors. With such a transfer of interests, they will naturally support her, and at that time, such a thing as blood will seem insignificant under the interest component.
But after all, she didn't expect that no matter what kind of progress she brought to the family and the company, she couldn't erase one thing, that is, there were always people who thought they would do better than her.
And the blood relationship that she has been trying so hard to dilute has not been eliminated, but it is so deep-rooted, existing in the hearts of every family elder and every board member.
When she is strong and brings benefits to them, no one will talk about it. However, when it comes to family business, they will reveal their truest thoughts in their hearts - she is an outsider, and she is also a woman destined to marry.
No one wants the benefits of the Wayne Group to flow into the hands of outsiders.
...
It is often these elders who are usually kind to her, often the kind of care they have taken since childhood, and the kind of faces that always show a family-like smile... At this time, looking at the hesitation in her eyes and the suspicion in her complexion. It's the most hurtful.
So in front of everyone, she told everyone present that she would marry Lin Hai.
Earl Lin Wei finally spoke at this point, his eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said in a solemn and low tone, "This is not a joke, Lin Wei, don't mess around. "
Ning Qing also obviously lost his sense of proportion at this moment, his gaze withdrew from Lin Hao, who was stunned, and said, "Weiwei, how can this matter be brought up so childishly, put it aside for now, now it's important to talk about business." "
Lin Wei looked at Lin Wei and Ning Qing with worried expressions, and smiled sadly, "Lord Earl, madam." I have known for a long time that I am your adopted daughter and have no blood relationship with you... But I grew up in this family, and I can't live without this place..."
"So, let my destination be here..."
"No matter what... Whatever it is, I want to die here of old age. "
Hear the earl in Lin Wei's mouth, ma'am. With such a title, no matter how dignified and calm Ning Qing is, he is also a little sad. She and her husband have always liked this sensible daughter, but it's a pity... Why wasn't she their own? So much so that she had to bear such pressure and pain in a noble family.
Until Lin Wei made such a statement. These family elders present all sighed slightly, they had always known Lin Wei's strength, but they didn't expect that this girl would be so strong that she would choose to marry an illegitimate child for the sake of the family!
Although it is not good to say it in reputation, at least, it is an expedient measure for her to stay in the family. Lin Hai is not like Lin Hao, he grew up with her since childhood, and there are sister and brother factors in it. This illegitimate son Lin Hai, if he marries Lin Wei, he can dilute those rumors and let Lin Wei stay in the family, after all, if Lin Wei says that he will not marry for life, no one will believe such childish words.
Although Lin Hai was able to receive a notice from Qingyuan Academy, there must be a demon when things go wrong, and now within the family, there is more of a strange sense of mystery for him. Coupled with Lin Hai's experiences in the slums, he is such an unclear person now.
Lin Wei's move, didn't she bury her happiness single-handedly? Such an excellent girl... It's a pity after all.
Even Lynch, who had questioned the most fiercely before, was shaken by Lin Wei's fierceness at this time, and regretted being harsh to her for the first time. After all, these elders have also grown up watching this girl since childhood... If they hadn't forced each other, how could she have made such a radical decision?
It was still Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan, who reacted the fastest, and did not sink into the emotions of the surrounding group elders shaking and blaming themselves, and said with a smile, "Niece... Don't be kidding, Lin Hai is about to go to Qingyuan Academy to study... Besides, how can you get married... Don't talk about it anymore! "
Lin Wei was slender on the neck, her chin was slightly raised, her eyes looked at the two of them calmly, and she maintained an indifferent bearing that she said in the company, so that the doubts of the two of them did not have any strength for a while, and there was an unchangeable firmness in the lightness, and said, "When he graduates from Qingyuan College, it will be that time... Let's get married. "
By that time... Let's get married.
To put it so calmly, it's like deciding an event in the company, or something as trivial as what to eat tomorrow and where to go.
But everyone can feel that her starry eyes have never been so elegant and solemn.
Even Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan were stunned by her expression for a while, and they didn't continue to make trouble.
And in this meeting, Lin Hai, who had no right to speak, looked at the silent elders around him, and saw Lin Wei's beautiful and poignant face, and felt a little crying and laughing...
Have you ever asked me for my opinion?
Of course, no one would ask Lin Hai's opinion, if it weren't for the fact that he was admitted to Qingyuan College and became the focus of the annual meeting, it would be impossible for him to attend this family meeting now.
Therefore, in such a parliament, he is not qualified to speak at all.
For everyone, even if he and Lin Wei are asked to get married the next day, as long as it is a decision made at the family meeting, Lin Hai, an illegitimate child with no human rights, can only passively accept it, and no one cares about his so-called opinion.
"This kind of thing, how can it be so rashly decided! And, is the purpose of today's meeting to discuss something like this? "
Lin Wei looked around the audience, interrupted in a deep voice, and looked at Lin Wei again, "Wei, no one wants to drive you away from this family, so you don't need to think about such a thing, even if you are in the manor for a lifetime, you are also our daughter." In the same way, as long as I am here, no one can erase your contribution to Wayne Company! In the future of Wayne Company, your position and assistance are indispensable! Whoever dares to chew on the root of the tongue on this will let him get out of the way first! "
The head of the family, Lin Wei, spoke, and the sound of the whole meeting was quiet.
Many people were silent, and of course, there were some family elders who muttered, "No one denies Lin Wei's contribution... We're not trying to drive her away..."
"Of course, if Lin Wei marries Lin Hai, it will be the best result..."
"Why don't we want to keep our niece in the family... Watching her grow up, I feel distressed..."
In the face of these voices, Lin Wei frowned, and was about to attack. But she was stopped by Lin Wei, she didn't have a sad expression on the outside, and returned to her usual calm, "I have already given you an answer, I hope this explanation will satisfy you... Can we get back to business? "
There was a lazy and cold taste in the tone. But it contains a hidden strong power.
Maybe it's because of the power that is usually in the company, or these family elders have become accustomed to Lin Wei's coldness, they can still take advantage of her short-term vulnerability before, and now that they see Lin Wei returning to normal, where do they dare to talk about it again. All return to the current crisis thinking facing the Wayne Group.
...
The current topic is the hidden danger of air thieves. According to Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan, from the ears and eyes of their black market channels, they got the information that the empty thieves would be detrimental to the New South Star Industrial Base of Wayne Company.
Back to the topic, the scene was in a state of panic and worry.
Lynch, the elder of the board of directors, spoke again, "This ... Lin Wei's niece, you said before, you also knew the news, how did you know it? Can it support the conclusion of Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan's two uncles, that the air thieves do have plans to covet those raw materials in the industrial base? "
Lin Wei glanced at Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan, for others, Lin Wei in the company may look at them, and they will be scared for a long time, because they don't know if there will be something wrong with them, and then they will face the punishment system that she strictly enforces, and this kind of pressure is greater than being scolded by a grumpy boss.
But Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan have long been the kind of people who are unwilling to live under others, and although they were a little frightened by Lin Wei's eyes at this time, they still had a calm expression of hiding a knife in their smiles.
They made up the lie of the invasion of air thieves, naturally in order to take the opportunity to build momentum for themselves. Even if Lin Wei saw through their tricks, as long as they insisted on such a thing, they would not be afraid of her questioning. In the group, others are afraid of Lin Wei, they are not afraid!
Who knew that Lin Wei did not pierce the two of them, but put an electronic drawing on the inlaid light screen on the table, and shook his head, "The air thieves covet the raw materials of our industrial base?" Not really... The industrial base of Xinnanxing is important, but after all, it is an armor alloy material that needs to be refined. The process of refining is complex and cannot be accomplished by the simple industrial base of the air thieves. I believe that the raw ore obtained from the attack on several raw ore fields around us is guaranteed to make them a lot of money. "
"Since those raw materials from our industrial base have no value and no meaning to the air thieves, why did they come to plunder us?" An elder asked.
Lin Wei looked at Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan, "This is what I really want to ask, two uncles, why did the air thieves loot our industrial base for the purpose of those armor alloy raw materials that are useless to them?" "
Lin Yuanshan's expressions were obviously unnatural, but of course they were clear at this time, "What do you think about the air thief... How can we possibly know? "
They have ghosts in their hearts, and naturally they didn't expect that the lies they made up had such a small flaw, and they are not to blame, their grasp of business intelligence is far inferior to Lin Wei, and with such ability, they naturally will not investigate the business intelligence around the Xinnanxing base, and they don't know that there are a few targets that are more valuable than their industrial base in the eyes of the air thieves. So the attack on Wayne's base is logically problematic.
...
Lin Wei's pretty eyes looked around the audience, leaned over, and her slender fingers flicked the touch screen of the desktop, and the electronic map of the central desktop showed a floor plan of the surface industrial base of Xinnanxing.
Everyone paid attention to her movements, and they all noticed the anomalies of the subsequent drawing, because on the drawing, there were many key red drawing parts, and these parts were all the security systems of Wayne's New South Star base factory, as well as the location of the main engines.
On those red painted parts, there are quite a few tactical words such as "blasting", "sabotage", and "electromagnetic paralysis".
Seeing this, some people sitting there who understood this floor plan suddenly became as ugly as a pork liver for a long time, "This is ...!?" "
Lin Wei continued, "Yes, it is logically unreasonable for air thieves to rob our industrial base. They don't covet our products... Instead, it is to carry out a sabotage of the base of the New South Star! To paralyze our industrial area and make it raze and disappear from the surface of the planet! "
"Some time ago, our Wayne Corporation intelligence department received information that someone had purchased a perspective structure diagram of our industrial base from the black market, and this is the sample we obtained... Judging from the information revealed by this sample, we can be sure that there are indeed air thieves who are already attacking the idea of our base. "
Some company veterans finally couldn't hold their breath and said, "But why launch a terrorist attack, our Wayne Company has not offended these air thieves." Why did they attack us at the risk of being wanted by the Planetary Guards, and why did they launch this destruction? "
"It's very simple," Lin Wei pushed a strand of hair in front of her forehead back, revealing a delicate side face, "because someone wants to see our Wayne Company collapse!" The destruction of our important raw material base will inevitably cause irreversible losses to the Wayne Group, and the military's position as the leading supplier of light armor will naturally not be guaranteed, and the contract we signed with the military will also be automatically terminated because of the bankruptcy of the Wayne Group. And the other party, of course, can naturally replace us as the new supplier of the military. "
Many of the high-level veterans present at the scene, almost at the same time, exhaled the name in extreme consternation, "Mitsubishi Heavy Industries!" Zhao family! "
At present, the Lin family, the position of the military's light armor supplier, is the most likely successor, and only Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is the successor. But it was only because of the existence of the Lin family that they had no way to seize and shake the position of Wayne Company. But if Wayne has a supply problem due to the attack of air thieves, the slightest mistake in the face of the requirements of the Imperial military can lead to irreparable damage on the battlefield. At that time, the Imperial Military will naturally terminate the contract, and even compensate Wayne Company for liability.
At that time, the Wayne Enterprise and the Lin family will probably suffer a blow of annihilation!
The other party's hand... It's really vicious!
"This Zhao family, it's really not a fuel-efficient lamp, they are like a poisonous snake, entrenched in the riverside star, eroding this pure land!"
"Sure enough, it's for profit... I can do everything..."
"But aren't they afraid of being exposed, lifting a stone to shoot themselves in the foot, and ruining their reputation?"
Earl Lin Wei spoke, "They dare to do this, there must be such a basis, we only speculated this conclusion through a drawing of the black market flowing to the air thieves, and the abnormal behavior of the air thieves... There is still no direct evidence. But we will collect this evidence so that Zhao Jing can get the trial he deserves under the laws of the Empire! But it is imperative that we get through this crisis first. "
Lin Jiang and Lin Yuanshan were also completely stunned, they said before that the air thieves were coming, and they were completely forged some evidence and lies, who knew that such a thing was about to become a reality! And now a catastrophe for Wayne is about to befall right in front of you!
Everyone they were present would inevitably be affected by the cruel sweep of the conflict of interests between the two families... There is nowhere to run!
